General Manager, Tavernetta Vail

Originally hailing from Boston, Jay Havey has over a decade of experience in food and beverage management within the hospitality industry. Prior to joining Four Seasons Vail in May 2024, Havey worked as Food & Beverage Manager at Boston’s Four Seasons Hotel One Dalton and at The Colonnade Hotel. At Four Seasons Vail, he oversees the daily operations of Tavernetta Vail in partnership with Frasca Hospitality Group. 

As General Manager of Tavernetta Vail, Havey helps bring Frasca Hospitality Group’s award-winning hospitality to fruition, developing the restaurant’s sense of place within the alpine landscape and bringing la dolce vita to Four Seasons Vail. In his role, Havey additionally fosters the development of the restaurant’s teams, service, and culture, curating the restaurant’s personal touches and emphasizing the importance of accessibility and connection with both hotel guests and locals.

“We’re thrilled that the restaurant embodies an approachable sense of hospitality,” says Havey. “Of course, Tavernetta Vail is world-class, delivering great food and fantastic service, but I want this to be a place where guests feel effortlessly at home. Whether you make us your Monday night ritual or are celebrating a special occasion, we want you to be here with us at Tavernetta. I feel such gratitude to work with Bobby Stuckey and his team, who are so clearly and genuinely passionate about what they do and always maintain that caring, hospitality-first outlook in all their endeavors.”
