Ghost Kitchens
Our food hall and market eatery were created to support local small businesses and provide a space for the community to gather. Inside you’ll find a wealth of options for delicious meals, drinks and snacks, convenient ordering kiosks, pick-up cubbies, and lots of open seating. Whether you choose to dine-in, shop at our market, take your food to go, or have it delivered, there’s something for everyone, and more than one way to enjoy it.
Our food halls are a collection of small, locally developed restaurant concepts. Customers can order from one or multiple vendors and take their food to go or enjoy it in our communal dining area.
Ghost kitchens are professional cooking facilities where operators lease kitchen space to produce food for takeout or delivery. Typically, these spaces do not offer dine-in seating, a storefront, or service staff. This keeps operational costs low and reduces the time to start-up.
