Armature Works (Heights Public Market)
How to book: none for the food hall — walk in, order at vendor counters, grab communal seating. The play: come with a group, graze several stalls, take drinks to the riverfront lawn or up to the rooftop at sunset. Full-service restaurants inside (e.g. the M.Bird rooftop) may take reservations — book those for weekend evenings.
Best meal: A grazing lunch or casual dinner across the food-hall vendors, or a sunset rooftop cocktail with river views. Confirm current vendors/hours on site.
Who it’s NOT for: diners wanting a quiet fine-dining occasion anyone needing a reservation-guaranteed seat at peak travelers wanting a single sit-down destination meal (the point is variety)
