Food Hall Planned for Stamford's Downtown Post Office Site
Restaurant Food Hall Openings Stamford
Three years ago, the U.S. Post Office on lower Atlantic Street closed. As recently reported in the Stamford Advocate, the 100-year old building will be developed by the Capelli Organization of White Plains and will feature a food hall that will resemble the Urbanspace markets throughout NYC.
According to Capelli’s CEO Bruce Berg, the food hall will include vendors that will sell a variety of food, including pizza, a cheese shop, and may include a full restaurant. CTbites is currently tracking down a few leads on several of the early vendors who have agreed to take space, and if true this will be a diverse and wonderful selection of food. Berg also told a crowd at a recent open meeting that the original building will be restored.
This is great news to both architecture and food aficionados.

CTbites will post more news so stay tuned.
Road Trip: Exit 4 Food Hall in Mount Kisco
CT Beer Food Hall Local Artisan Mount Kisco Pizza Seafood Wine Bar
Food halls are all the craze in NYC right now. But in lower Fairfield County, food halls are completely missing and the closest one (the first in Westchester) is in Mount Kisco’s bustling downtown area and is totally worth the 40-plus minute drive to fill your bellies and thus, nourish your soul.
Exit 4 Food Hall opened in February and it’s already a Main Street hot spot. In an area packed with good eateries and ultra-cool bars, Exit 4 is a destination. It’s casual, it’s great for just about any occasion, and with nine food/drink counters there are lots of options for those days when you’re feeling a bit picky. On weekend nights it can get loud, and busy, but that’s part of its charm. There’s a sense of community here and you might even make a few foodie friends while you’re chowing down on food and chugging a brew. I was recently invited to try some of the food and the brew.
