Broad Street Pub owner Matt Cross trained as an evangelical pastor and worked in the church before leaving it all to become a full-time musician on nights and weekends, caring for his twin daughters during the day. Ultimately, his exposure to wineries, breweries, bars, and restaurants drew him to start his own place - a place for locals to gather that isn’t just focused on attracting a student population. Here Matt talks about how his faith has changed over the years, how food and drink integrate with it, and how his self-perception from childhood impacts the man he is today. (Don’t miss Matt’s special musical treat at the end.)
