When history blends seamlessly with a clear vision, magic unfolds.

It all began with a single idea….

How could we infuse a slice of history with our crystal-clear vision to craft something entirely fresh and innovative?

This is the Thyme on Main story.

When Makayla Rae Selvik and Sarah Kay Hoffman founded Thyme on Main the vision was crystal clear:

Create from a place of simplicity.

From the names contained within the building (Second Story, Refinery 507, The Studio, The Stay + The Event) to the food and drink options, decor, and branding……simple and clean.

Remove the clutter and invite people in to a place that’s fun, inspiring, and feels like their own.
