The founder
15 years in the making.
Breyuna Lester has been in hospitality since 2011. Not as a side hustle. As a career. From restaurant service to bar management, from large-scale event operations to project management and consulting, she has spent over a decade learning how to make people feel welcome in every room she touches.
The Queens Chalice didn't come from a trend report. It came from lived experience. Breyuna saw the gap firsthand — she was the guest at the event who chose not to drink and was handed a glass of water while everyone else received a crafted cocktail. She felt what it was like to be an afterthought at a celebration she was invited to enjoy.
TQC exists because she decided no guest should ever feel that way again. She brought her operations expertise, her project management instincts, and her bartending craft together to build something that didn't exist yet: a hospitality company dedicated entirely to elevated, alcohol-free experiences.
