Food halls are all the rage
There's a surge of trendy food halls happening all over America that
showcase local and independent restaurants. An estimated 340 food halls are
currently open across the country, with another 127 expected to open in
2024. Gen Zs and Millennials are driving the craze, with about two-thirds
dining at a food hall at least once a month. The higher cost of food halls
doesn't seem to keep them away.
The foodie appeal of many of the food selections in food halls is raising
Gen Z's and Millennial's expectations for the uniqueness, variety, and
quality of food they will get elsewhere, including at location-based
entertainment venues they choose to visit.
