A LITTLE ABOUT CHEF JOE AND CINDERLANDS:

Joe Kiefer, chef at Cinderlands Beer Company, began his culinary career at 18, working his way up from dishwasher to chef in various Pittsburgh kitchens. Known for his passion for seasonal ingredients and local sourcing, Joe’s approach blends classic techniques with innovative ideas.

At Cinderlands, he leads with creativity, designing menus that reflect his love for fresh, local produce and quality meats, while continuously pushing culinary boundaries and expanding the restaurant’s reach.

The Cinderlands Warehouse space welcomes groups both large and small to enjoy their seasonally-driven, scratch-made dishes alongside their award-winning craft brews, made right there in the same building! Dine on their second-floor airy dining room where industrial meets chic or enjoy their pergola-covered rooftop patio. Play some games on their first floor all while you take in views of their production facility.
