Story

Freight House is turning a new page filled with familiar flavors, fresh energy, and a whole lot of heart.

Newly owned by Joe Burnham (Co-Owner and CEO) and his daughter, Alexis Burnham (Co-Owner and General Manager), the transition came together in a way that felt nothing short of meant to be. Joe had always been a fan of the food, and after striking up a conversation with Andrew, now officially staying on as Head Chef, a deeper conversation unfolded. The opportunity to carry on a beloved local favorite while elevating it even further was a calling the family couldn’t ignore.

Andrew’s culinary leadership remains at the heart of Freight House. With his commitment to quality and creativity, the team is excited to continue delivering the dishes Norwalk knows and loves. Plans are already in motion to partner with local farms and purveyors, bringing freshness and seasonality to the menu.

Freight House will also feature Grandma Bea’s Bakery, serving signature pies, apple fritters, and coffee cakes straight from Burnham’s kitchen.

A grand opening is planned for late May, and those who want to be the first to experience the refreshed Freight House can sign up for text updates for an exclusive invite to the soft opening.

A new chapter starts soon, and Alexis, Joe, and Andrew can’t wait to welcome you.
