Pine Grove Hall: Upscale Dining, Live Music, and Farm-Fresh Flavors in Happy Valley

Since opening in June 2020, Pine Grove Hall has become a premier upscale casual restaurant and live music venue, dedicated to nourishing body, mind, and spirit through exceptional food, drinks, and performances for guests, staff, and the local community.

Pine Grove Hall's richly decorated Art Deco interior has been praised for "bringing old-time nightclub flair to Happy Valley’s dining and listening scene"—an inspired destination where cutting-edge music meets high-end cuisine and craft beverages.

Owner Liz Grove and her team emphasize community focus, sourcing 90% of ingredients from farm partners within 50 miles of the Pine Grove Mills location.

The inventive, seasonally inspired menu reflects local farm bounty. Chef Tory Glossner's passion is evident in dishes like house-made Mandili di seta pasta with braised wild boar shoulder, Windswept Farms root vegetables, fried basil, and pine nuts; or Meyer Dairy cream panna cotta with grapefruit, candied fennel, and pink peppercorn polenta shortbread. Vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free options ensure inclusivity.

A curated wine list and inventive cocktails perfectly complement meals and small plates.
