Now in its eighth year, Community Kitchen Pittsburgh’s Annual Fish Fry Fundraiser is that seasonal favorite that brings the community together in support of culinary training, job placement, and food access initiatives across the region.

Every Friday, February 20th – April 3rd from 11am – 7pm, guests may dine in or take out. Orders may be placed in person or online (phone orders will not be accepted). Preordering is encouraged and may be placed online each week for Friday pickup. You can view the menu and place an order here.

In classic fish fry style, the menu features crispy, golden-fried haddock along with house made sides and desserts prepared by Community Kitchen Pittsburgh chefs, students, and alumni. 

As in years past, the fundraiser will take place at their Hazelwood location at 107 Flowers Avenue, Pittsburgh, PA 15207. Proceeds from each order directly benefit Community Kitchen Pittsburgh’s workforce development program, which provides no-cost culinary jobs training and job placement for individuals facing barriers to employment. Their goal for 2026 is to sell 5,500 pieces of fish in support of their mission to transform lives through food.

Hazel Grove Brewing will be on site every week from 4pm – 7pm, serving up cold cans of their brews—including a special beer collaboration with Community Kitchen Pittsburgh that launches on the first Fish Fry Friday! 

Local Girl Scout troops will be on site on February 27th, March 6th, and March 13th from 4pm – 7pm selling their iconic cookies (while supplies last).

Can’t make it to Hazelwood? For the second year, Community Kitchen Pittsburgh’s Food Truck will be out serving up Fish Fry for lunch and then returning to HQ to serve up the Fish Fry goodness in tandem with their kitchen for dinner.
