Six Penn Kitchen was designed to bring a new dining experience to the city of Pittsburgh. The goal was to create a neighborhood American bistro that focuses on relaxed but attentive service, unfussy but expertly prepared food at down to earth prices, and an overall feeling of hospitality that will cultivate a loyal fan base of guests who drop in for lunch or dinner, weekly or monthly.

Six Penn Kitchen was conceived by utilizing the talent and knowledge of local restaurateurs, in addition to relying on the resources of some folks behind the success of some of the best and most respected restaurants around the country. Six Penn Kitchen is a neighborhood restaurant with world class aspirations. By paying attention to the basics – true hospitality, great food, casually sophisticated environment – we feel that Six Penn Kitchen will raise the bar on the art of dining casually.

Chris Baierbach
General Manager, Six Penn Kitchen

Chris Baierbach's restaurant experience began when he was just 15 years old.

He began as a bus boy, server at the Red Bull Inn in Dormont, and eventually began his "formal" training with Stouffer's Restaurant in 1986 Chris continued his restaurant experience at Vernon's Bar and Grill in the South Hills and worked his way up as chef. Years later, he moved on to enhance his skills in management and soon became general manager of the Cheese Cellar located in Station Square in 1991.

For 15 years Chris' talents grew within the restaurant industry. However, his career in hospitality would soon head in a different direction. In 1999, Chris joined Parkhurst Dining Services, a contract dining division of Eat'n Park Hospitality Group, Inc., as Assistant Food Service Director for Robert Morris University. He was later promoted to General Manager at Robert Morris and continued his career as General Manager at Carnegie Mellon University. His background experience with restaurants and superior talents with financials with contract dining accounts prepared him well for his new and exciting opportunity with Six Penn Kitchen. Chris is amazed at the energy of his new staff and the unique tastes of the carefully-crafted, all-American bistro menu items and cocktails that have built the brand of Six Penn Kitchen – making it a Pittsburgh original within the heart of Pittsburgh’s cultural district.
