Lehrhaus Tavern and House of Learning

Lehrhaus brings together two longstanding Jewish traditions: the tavern, a lively gathering place for food, drink, and conversation, and the beit midrash (study hall), where learning comes alive through discussion and debate.

The design draws on the energy and camaraderie of both traditions, with the bar and open kitchen animating the lively dining room. Nearby, an acoustically treated conference room, and cocktail seating area provide a visual connection between the two traditions, bringing the spirit of Jewish learning into every part of the space.

Our role included project design and documentation, interior design, custom millwork design, and furniture selection and sourcing.

Lehrhaus recently was named in Esquire Magazine's list of The 50 Best New Restaurants in America, 2023.
