R. House is a gathering place for friends and family. It all began with a group of ten chefs who believed that working together to launch their restaurants was preferable to going it alone. It's a food hall, but it's also a gathering place for the entire community. We consider ourselves neighbors rather than guests, and we see possibilities rather than limitations. This is your social gathering spot, as well as your kitchen table, office, and front stoop, among other things. This is your house, our house, R. House, and it belongs to you. A team will be at each of the 10 stalls, doing what they do best – preparing a delicious poké bowl, shwarma, or fried chicken sandwich – for you. From Baltimore to all over the world — from Hilo to Caracas to Seoul — they draw inspiration for R. House and bring it all back to the city where it all began. The attached events venue, The Garage is a 6,500-square-foot industrial-style space ideal for private events with a capacity of up to 400 participants. The Garage, with its exclusive r. bar beverage service and endless production possibilities, ensures that your event will be remembered fondly.
