As Unique as Your Students
We are committed to working with you to create an ideal meal experience with menus that are as unique & diverse as your students. Our wide range of food items can be customized to satisfy specific age groups and dietary needs.
Our Menus
Our team is constantly working on recipes and new meals designed with your students in mind. We have deep roots in the communities we serve which is the reason every meal is designed to meet the likes of our local students.
We believe that the best way to create a functional food service model is to partner with your school from the beginning. Every school’s needs are different, and we are committed to creating a unique level of service that works best for you.
If you have a new and innovative idea for service or meals, we would love to collaborate with you.

Our roots are in school breakfast and we provide our schools with healthy, tasty and compliant breakfast menus. Your students deserve a variety of breakfast options that include hot meals. We are constantly working to provide new and exciting menu items.
