Something Big Is Happening in the Restaurant Community and We Want You to Be Part of It
Â
The way restaurants grow is changing. And for the first time, guests are being invited into the process, not just at the table, but into what comes next.
Â
At Urban Hearth, community has always been at the center of everything we do. It shapes how we cook, how we host, and how we think about the future. As we prepare for our next chapter, we are opening the door a little wider and inviting you to step inside.
Â
A New Chapter, Built the Same Way We Always Have
In 2026, Urban Hearth will move to a larger home in Inman Square, allowing us to welcome more guests while preserving the warmth and connection that define the experience. It is an exciting step forward, and one we have approached with care.
Â
Rather than following a traditional, behind-the-scenes path, we have decided to grow in a way that reflects our values. Openly. Thoughtfully. Both with the community that has supported us from the beginning and including the many people who are just discovering us now.
Â
To help make that possible, we partnered with Stake House, a new platform designed to support independent restaurants through community participation and experience-driven opportunities. For us, it is simply an extension of how we already operate.
Â
Why We Are Doing This Differently
Independent restaurants face real challenges when it comes to growth. Rising costs, limited access to capital, and funding models that rarely align with hospitality values make expansion difficult.
Â
This approach offers a different path. One that allows guests to engage beyond a reservation, connect more deeply with the story, and participate in a way that feels meaningful rather than transactional.
Â
For us, inviting our community into this process is not a marketing move. It is a reflection of trust and shared ownership of what Urban Hearth represents.
Â
What This Means for You
Our campaign offers unique, one-time experiences tied to the next chapter of Urban Hearth, including early access to the new space and opportunities to connect more closely with the kitchen and the team.
Â
Whether you have been dining with us for years or are discovering Urban Hearth for the first time, this is an invitation to be part of something that extends beyond a single meal.
Â
