This place is such a good addition to Lawrenceville. It takes food hall to a whole new level. The inside is so cute and I love that there's 2 floors so even if they are super busy it never feels crowded. We sat at the bar and ordered sushi and dumplings from Kazoku. We also ordered some fries from Loaded. Everything was amazing. I really loved the shrimp dumplings the shrimp wasn't over cooked and just tasted fresh and delicious!! I am obsessed with loaded fries so no shocker that these were AMAZING! Normally when I see taki dust on something it just doesn't do much for me but this really added the perfect flavor and crunch to the fries!! So so good we will for sure be back!! read more

This is a neat place and a nice concept - a food hall with several varied dining options. Burgers/chicken, Southern-style (pulled pork & such), and Asian (sushi & such). There's also a decent-size bar, with seating, that serves soda and alcohol. There is supposed to be a parking lot for this place nearby but I didn't see it, so you'll have to parallel park on the street. Upon entry, it's a wide-open space with two floors and very tall ceilings (which makes for a unique ambiance), but I wonder if it gets very loud in there. Admittedly, I don't know if it's noisy because we visited on a Friday at lunchtime (around 12:30-1), and there were only 2 other tables eating there (which we were surprised to see). You order via touchscreen at the counter or via QR code at a table. We ordered at the counter via touchscreen, which requires you to come get your order when it's done (they text you). But, supposedly, if you order via QR code, someone will bring your food to your table. However, my wife ordered us drinks (a Diet Coke and a short margarita) via QR code, and we both got our food (from two different vendors, and I was half done with my burger & fries, before the bartender even started our drink order. So, my wife went up to the bar and asked for our drinks and brought them to our table. So, I'm not sure the QR code method is the most expedient approach. Onto the food... my wife really enjoyed her corn dog from Loaded (pictured) and her sushi (crunchy California, not pictured). I enjoyed my burger from Loaded (pictured), but I wouldn't say it was particularly noteworthy as far as burgers go. One thing I enjoyed was the use of bacon pieces instead of strips (if that was a happy accident or intentional, I don't know). The cheese was a bit non-existent but other than that, it was a decent burger. I got a double patty because I prefer my burgers to be 6-8 oz. The double patty had a perfect bun-to-meat ratio. All-in-all, it's something different to try and the food is decent/good, so if you're in the area, give it a try. read more

Definitely one of my favorite food halls around the city. Tons of seating upstairs and down with more food options and a bar; options included southern soul food, a smash burger stand with Korean corn dogs, Mexican food, sushi and an ice cream stand. Loaded (burgers & Korean corn dogs) seemed to be serving up food the fastest. Cuddy's was pretty slow getting food out. We stopped by on a Sunday afternoon during OpenStreets and surprisingly it wasn't very busy. The catfish sandwich from Cuddy's was okay. It wasn't overall heavy. The piece of fish was smaller than I was expecting and I think I would have liked a house made tartar sauce more. The fries were good dusted with seasoning that I I am assuming was ol bay. I really wanted to try a different side but didn't see an option to sub the fries and didn't want to pay $6 for a 2nd side I didn't necessarily need. Loaded served their own ketchup with their fries instead of sending the customer to get Heinz from the communal cart by the water station. Their fries were also the best of the two places that served fries. I really wanted a brownie sundae but unfortunately there was no one at the ice cream counter. There was a sign that said someone would return but I waited a couple of minutes and decided to move on. I would return when in the area to try more options from the same and different vendors! read more

Such a cool concept. I went after work around 4:30pm, it was a perfect time to go. I had plenty of choices where I wanted to sit. I chose the bar. I was able to order my drink with the bar tender who was lovely. I sampled dishes from 3/4 of the restaurants located inside. I ordered a half meat and half cheese bang bang dog, @kazokusushi_lh I ordered shrimp dumplings with bang bang sauce and @lapalapapgh I ordered the queso. I loooved the korean corn dog that I got, it was easily my favorite thing. Once ordered the food came shortly after. I am not sure if this was done intentionally of if it just happened this way but it came in waves. So I wasn't overwhelmed with food. read more

I got to check out Lawrence Hall the last time I was home for a visit. One of my favorite things about my city is when old buildings like this former warehouse are brought back to life. A stunning job was done on the rehab of this warehouse from the late 1800s. The vibe feels like so much more than Pittsburgh and yet so very Pittsburgh. Super spacious with a funky & modern decor. Great food options to choose from like Cuddy's Soul Food, Toma, La Palapa and more. All great food that you order via QR code. You can play darts, shuffleboard, and pinball. There's a full bar with spirits, beer, mocktails, and cocktails. Great new(er) addition to Lawrenceville. read more

Lawrence Hall is a food hall that contains the restaurants Kazoku Sushi, La Palapa, Loaded, Cuddy's Soul Food, and Scoops & Cones and the bar Dear James. The food hall is uniquely inside a repurposed warehouse from the 1890s. My husband and I were customers here one time. We could order either from a QR code on our table or from the individual restaurants' counters. We ate vegetable spring rolls (4 stars) from Kazoku Sushi; a smashburger and fries (4 stars) and a bacon-ranch corn dog (3.5 stars) from Loaded; and a sweet-potato pie (3 stars) from Cuddy's. All of the employees spoke very nicely with us, and we did not have long waits for our foods. A free water station was available to use. Plenty of self-serve seating was available in the two-story building. I recommend Lawrence Hall to people who want to support local businesses and try a variety of foods. read more

Stopped here for lunch on a Friday afternoon while in the area for shopping and running around. What brought us here was the search for a sushi place in the Lawrenceville area. This is a cool concept: several food options, a bar, and community cafeteria seating which allows you to order via QR code from all places and staff serves the food and drinks. Staff was nice and friendly, as well as informative. read more

Stopped in after the Lawrenceville cookie walk! it's a dining hall concept so lots of choices. We went with "loaded" and got the smash burger and a bacon ranch Korean corn dog to split. Food took a bit to come out, but once it did everything was incredible, hot, fresh and delicious! read more

Lawrence Hall - Classic American Smashy - Food Court Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Pretty empty food hall with occasional events and deals for the weekdays, including Taco Tuesdays. There's a lot of tables upstairs and downstairs. You have the option of ordering from a table via QR code or go directly to the restaurant booths and ordering there. They also have some classic arcade games and pinball machines upstairs. It's a very self-service vibe with napkins, water jugs, water cups, and utensils available at certain stations. read more

My husband and I had a wonderful time at Lawrence Hall! We were there on a Friday, sat at the bar, drank, ate, and watched some sports. We ordered several drinks...the bartenders were amazing! We then ordered from Kazoku, Loaded, La Playa, and Scoops and Cones. Our favorite was the Korean corn dog by far. The atmosphere was so laidback but everyone seemed to have a great time. We loved the decor and the garbage stations and bathrooms. read more

I stumbled in here after a failed attempt at trying to watch a dodgeball game across the street. I ended up at the sushi vendor and got shrimp dumplings. It was $7 for a plate full. The service was quick and I even enjoyed a beer at the bar. I'm gonna have to come back for happy hour. I also loved that they had live music. It almost feels like it's not Lawrenceville. read more

Such a cute place, especially the gallery wall by the bathroom is soo cute (very Pinterest lol), the food is good depending the vendor you're feeling!

Multiple visits over more than a year. This is a food gallery with four separate kitchens. Large open space with communal feel. Often loud. The bar and bar team are lovely. Concepts are soul food, an American fusion place that has deep-fried hotdogs and smash burgers, a sushi venue and a place that does Italian. We have found the kitchens highly variable, but usually okay: suspect kitchen staffing is dynamic and unpredictable. read more

Great spot in Lawrenceville. They have a variety of different places inside where you can get all types of food options. Love their chicken sandwich read more

Great experience at Lawrence Hall! We went on a Saturday afternoon for brunch. I started with a mimosa and my husband tried a Bloody Mary. My only disappointment was that only one kitchen offered brunch, so I ended up getting lunch instead. I enjoyed 2 tacos from La Palapa & my husband and I split a Korean corn dog from Loaded, and my husband had a burger from Loaded. All of the food was incredible! The server that was working the floor was incredibly friendly, helpful, and attentive. All of the food came out pretty fast. It's a family friendly spot with high chairs and stroller "parking." This is such a cool spot with lots of tables and a beautiful bar. Definitely will be returning for dinner, more cocktails, and ice cream! read more

We came through on a Monday evening to grab $.75 wings at Cuddy's. Come to it there was trivial night at the Lawrence Hall. When I said packed, it was packed. Apparently trivia night is every first and third Monday every month. It really look like they was having a good time. They downstairs and upstairs were packed with people, however onto the food. We went and got the $.75 whole wings from Cuddy's. Ended up taking them to go due to how crowded it was inside when. Wings at Cuddy's were delicious, so crispy and so flavorful, cooked to perfection. We got the Cajun seasoning, which was very good. There were multiple options to choose from when it came to sauces and dry seasonings for the wings. Overall, the Lawrence Hall was beautiful beautifully put together. I love how opened it is, the multiple restaurants there's ice cream, a Sushi Spot, Tacos for taco Tuesday and also there's Cuddy's soul food. Also have a bar pretty nice size bar. We will be back again next Monday to enjoy the wonderful wings. read more

I love this place!!! I can't believe it has taken me so long to try it. I actually saw an advertisement on a billboard on 28 and that is what prompted me to check it out, we've been here multiple times since! I love the ambiance in here. Lawrence Hall is a classic food hall housing multiple restaurants that you can order from. There is also a decent bar too. You go in and find a table (first come first served) and then use your phones and QR codes to order. I love that you can get various things from different restaurants. This is great for a group where everyone can find what they want or for anyone (like me) who has a hard time making decisions and wants to try it all. Once you order the food is brought out to you which is great. They also have a self serve water station, but the servers are kind and often bring you some as well. *edited to add - Since la palapa does not have its own page, I have to take the time to comment on their food. We love it!!! we at the very least get the chips and dips every time we come here. Very good guac and queso, and the salsa is pretty good too (although tomato heavy). read more

The ambiance of this food hall was top tier. Felt super clean and open and was definitely a place I could see myself sitting at for a while catching up with friends or watching a game. I had ordered from 3 restaurants and this was my take La palapa guac and chips 4/5 Chips were super fresh and delightful. Salsa was a bit heavy on the tomatoes for us but in all very good Loaded- sweet garlic teriyaki dog 5/5 Dang this dog was good. Way more filling than I had expected, I had ordered the all beef dog. A member of my party did order a cheese filled dogs and it did look like most of the molten cheese had pooled to one side of the dog so be careful not to get burned! My dog had great flavor, just wished for a bit more sauce on it. Toma hot honey pepperoni slice2 /5 This took way longer to come out than the other food we had ordered from the other restaurants. The hot honey was super weak and the pizza tasted like the ellios pizza you can buy at the grocery store. Super bready and pretty doughy with a disappointing flavor profile. read more

First time going and tried Kazoku with my lunch date. The vibe in there is so cool! There's about 5 different restaurants and a bar to order from. I got the kazoku bowl and they got the crunchy California roll. We'll definitely be back, possibly to try the soul food next time ! read more

I found Lawrence Hall to be mediocre for my first time. I ordered the shrimp tacos and there was next to no flavor and the tortilla fell apart right away. The side of potatoes were okay but nothing to rave about. Maybe I just ordered the wrong thing because there were plenty of options! I saw a Japanese place is being put in the hall which is exciting. Overall this place has a fun atmosphere but there are much better places to go for food. read more

My wife and I went to Lawrence Hall the other night for dinner. Lawrence Hall is located obviously in Lawrence and has 4 eating establishments and 1 ice cream place and a big bar. We ate at Toma and I got a chicken parm hero which was delicious also went for ice cream at Leona's afterwards. I find this place great and is a definite must goto. You choose your own seat then choose from the 4 restaurants you want to go to and then order and sit they test you when your food is ready. You can also click on the scan code at the table and order online and then they bring the food directly to your table. It was a great experience and the food was great. read more

So we've been here about 10 or so times since it's opening and I think we have a good handle on how things work. Sitting at the bar for drinks is great. You don't have to use the QR and can order like a normal bar. Drinks are always great. No complaints. Food... not so much. The ordering is a pain and nothing is timed well. Most of them are slow, others are slower. I feel like the food hall hype died about 8 years ago so this place feels out of touch. There isn't any restaurant that stands out as a must have like Iron Born pizza use to. Instead it's more food court quality. It's also frustrating when one person's meal arrives while others have to wait another 15-20 minutes. Every time we order food, we always ask ourselves "why did we eat here?" So go for drinks at the bar, but plan dinner somewhere else. read more

While in the area we were looking for a place to grab some food and since this place had options we figured it would make everyone in the group happy. I appreciate that you can order from the app and someone brings the food to your table, its nice to not have to get up and down for food or drinks. The space is beautiful and has a cute little arcade room upstairs if you are looking for a little extra. I'll add food for each restaurant but as a space, no notes! read more

The food was pretty average. We got the elote corn dog, Philadelphia roll and tacos. The drinks were very good however. The biggest set back though were the two small children running around that belonged to the owner. The server apologized even though we know it wasn't the servers fault. They were crawling on the floor, blocking servers from walking/working. It's a beautiful space, but on a Friday night while on a date, it was not the right vibe. read more

I stopped by Lawrence Hall on Tuesday with some friends at 6pm. They had a private event going on upstairs but we were able to snag a table for six downstairs. The QR code ordering is so convenient because we just ordered and paid online and everything got dropped off at our table. I also really like that there's a happy hour with drink specials and the space of the food hall itself is enormous with plentiful seating both downstairs and upstairs. My favorite things we got were Leona's ice cream (of course). I will say, I wish they had more variety - everything besides the ice cream is pretty heavy brown food. Hopefully that will change in the future. read more

Very nice first impression. Great space and well laid out with seating on the main floor as well as a second level with a balcony. Only tried Toma which is Italian. Had spaghetti and meatballs (huge!) which were delicious! Also nice touch with Lawrence Hall providing chilled sparkling or still water at a self serve counter. While it's not full service there were plenty of staff walking around with one person asking if I needed a to go box and another promptly clearing my used dishes.

This is a great new spot in Lawrenceville! They have a great selection of restaurants in here and the bar is beautiful! There's an Italian spot, ice cream, Korean corn dogs, chicken sandos, smashburgers, Mexican spot, and a barbecue spot. I love that they are like Federal Galley and everyone can order by scanning a QR code. I went the second day they were open and I was kinda confused when I came in and ordered at the counter. It took us a little bit to get our food but they were really busy on a Saturday in the afternoon. I loved the ice cream from Leona's. They have a lot of cool flavors and their ice cream sandos are famous around town. They were totally sold out. The chicken Caesar salad sandwich from Toma's my friend had was good. The focaccia pizza from Toma's was also good. It was just a bit cold by the time I got it but that's ok. They're definitely going to still be figuring out kinks. The space is very beautiful and big. Lots of seating upstairs and downstairs and is a great spot for large groups. Can't wait to try the other spots!! read more

The new Lawrence Hall is having their soft opening April 8-11. The bar looks classy and the options are very diverse from soul food to Korean corn dogs to tacos. You can order directly from the stands or sit at a table and order from any (or all) of the restaurants via the QR code at the tables. Make sure you close your tab for the order to be sent through to the restaurant and one of their runners will bring it out to you. All drinks, including soft drinks are all from the bar. Get one of Loaded's half-cheese half-beef corn dog and thank me later. read more

Lawrence Hall is a great place to go with a big group because there is a ton of space. I went on a Saturday night and it was not very crowded which was nice. Really my only complaint was that it's a tad on the expensive side. Just a soda was $4 which was a little annoying. I also got some fries from Loaded and they were really tasty. The portion size was decent and large enough to share with friends. I'll definitely come back when needing to satisfy lots of different palettes in Lawrenceville. read more
