A
t just 8,000 sf in size, this mini food hall in
Manhattan’s Pennsylvania Station opened
in 2016 and currently offers a bar, coffee shop
and five eateries. However, all are either
chef-driven or artisanal concepts: among
them, Franklin Becker's The Little Beet, Marc
Forgione's Lobster Press and Mario Batali and
Mary Giuliani's Mario by Mary. Butcher Pat
LaFrieda offers his legendary meats, and
vegan food is offered at The Cinnamon Snail.
The Pennsy ticks all boxes: It benefits from
both commuter and tourism traffic thanks to
its location at Pennsylvania Station (serving
more than 600,000 commuter rail and Amtrak
riders per day) and offers immediate access to
the heart of Midtown Manhattan, Herald
Square and Madison Square Garden.
