Andrew Green

Over the course of Andrew Green’s more than 25 years in wine and food service, he has garnered some of the industry’s most prestigious awards. In 2001, after completing the Court of Master Sommeliers Advance Certificate Exam, he assumed the same post at The Village Pub when it opened. Less than a year later, under Andrew’s astute management, it earned a Best of Award of Excellence from Wine Spectator magazine. Debuting in 2007 in San Francisco, Spruce was an instant success, recognized as Best New Wine List by Food & Wine magazine and Best New Restaurant by Esquire magazine. Both restaurants have the distinction of receiving Wine Spectator’s highest honor, a Grand Award, in 2013 and 2015, respectively, as well as one Michelin star.

Today, in his role as president of fine dining, Andrew is focused on providing guests at The Village Pub, Spruce, The Village Bakery and Selby’s with an impeccable experience. Mentoring and educating staff are priorities for Andrew, too: More than 500 Bacchus employees have earned a certification from the Court of Master Sommeliers and 10 have become accredited sommeliers.
