If there’s one thing that we’re learning the hard way, it’s that you should never get too attached to your favorite counter at The Warehouse Food Hall. During a recent visit, we discovered that another one of our favorites has called it quits.
I’ll be honest, I’m still bummed about Freshie’s Lobster Co. pulling out of the Warehouse in March 2024. Yes, the food was expensive.
