Our Story ....

The World Glass is the vision of founder and owner Steven Hromadka. It all began in Vienna, Austria where Hromadka spent most of his childhood. Home to the United Nations and a historical gateway to the west, the city is filled with influences from every corner of the world. Hromadka went to an international school where he made friends from many nations. He has fond memories like spending time with Luis and Ignacio, the sons of the Mexican ambassador. In his later years Hromadka traveled for business, lead mission trips, and just explored the world for fun and adventure. He was exposed to many cultures and with that the cuisine and beverages enjoyed in various regions around the globe. He wants to bring all of those experiences together in one place. The idea is to create a space where people can come to taste new things without having to travel abroad. In addition, Hromadka envisions The World Glass being a spot where people can come to reminisce and share about their travels. Foreigners living in the Queen City can also come to share a bit of their culture with local friends.
