Belcampo Unveils Big New Oakland Flagship for Sustainable Meat Empire - Eater SF

"Belcampo CEO and co-founder Anya Fernald has headquartered her company in Oakland for years now, but to dine on items like Belcampo’s popular burgers, customers have had to visit retail and restaurant spaces elsewhere. That all changes on July 2, when Belcampo opens its serious new retail flagship with a large butcher shop, full-service restaurant, and bar in Jack London Square. There’s room for 230 diners at the 7,000-square-foot space (including 100 seats on the patio). To helm the new restaurant, Fernald brought chef Brett Halfpap up from Santa Monica’s Belcampo location. His menu will highlight meat raised on the company’s Shasta Valley farm: Options include classic beef tartare, duck confit poutine and Belcampo lamb shawarma." - Caleb Pershan
