Kroger launches
restaurant concept
The Kroger Co. and its culinary development
team have introduced a new restaurant concept, Kitchen 1883, which offers "a fresh take
on new American comfort food," the company said.
"With Kitchen 1883, our goal is to create a gathering place that offers a genuinely
delicious place to relax and experience our
food," said Daniel Hammer, vice-president of
culinary development and new business for
Kroger. "The restaurant will feature a madefrom-scratch menu, hand-crafted cocktails
and a community-centered atmosphere."
Named for the year that Barney Kroger
opened his first grocery store in Cincinnati,
Kitchen 1883
opened in
Union, Ky. The
restaurant operates daily offering
lunch and dinner
along with brunch
on Saturdays and
Sundays.
Kroger has been experimenting with different avenues for growth
lately, including seating areas in its store
where customers may grab lunch and prepared meal kits in the Cincinnati area under
the Prep+Pared name.
