Well, This is Awkward
We don’t usually like to talk about ourselves, but we’re really excited about our Grand Opening and we can’t wait for you to see it! The project has been a couple years in the making, and it all started when we found an old warehouse in a cool little neighborhood - West Lancaster Jewels. The idea to blend our love of hospitality with our love of live music, dance & poetry performance was the light bulb moment, and we haven’t looked back since.
Everything about The Pearl was created with care—from the coffee we serve to the stage we built. We believe in fresh food, good music, and the quiet magic of a well-loved space. Our soups, breads, and sweet things come from local cooks who care deeply about what they make. Our entertainment calendar highlights artists, poets, and performers from down the street and across the country.
COMMUNITY ROOTS
ONE BIG KITCHEN, LOTS OF GREAT COOKS
The Pearl is the front door to something bigger. Our soups and broths come straight from Crowded Kitchen, our in-house soup company, and we proudly share our space with other local food entrepreneurs through the Crowded Cookhouse, a licensed community kitchen in downtown Lancaster. When you order from our menu or grab a soup to-go, you're supporting a whole community of makers doing what they love.
