Great Northern Food Hall

Danish food entrepreneur and philanthropist, Claus Meyer, and his team opened The Great Northern Food Hall in Grand Central Terminal in Summer of 2016. The food hall brings culinary concepts, flavors and ideas – rooted in the history and the landscapes of the Nordic countries. Great Northern Food Hall has five pavilions; Open Rye, Brownsville Roasters, Grain Bar, Meyers Bageri, Almanak, and Almanak - including The Bar.

Claus is the founder of Meyers, which launched many influential restaurants and other food projects in Denmark. He is also co-founder of noma, a Copenhagen restaurant that has four times been rated the best in the world, and he initiated the New Nordic Cuisine Movement. In 2010, he founded the Melting Pot Foundation because he believes that social change can be driven by food – using the tools of entrepreneurship, education, and deliciousness.
