The Fast Casual Restaurant Opens Doors in Carlsbad

Today, sweetgreen (NYSE: SG), the mission-driven restaurant brand serving healthy food at scale, will open its first restaurant in the San Diego-area in Carlsbad, CA, the brand’s 14th new market entry. The opening marks the restaurant brand’s expansion within Southern California, furthering its commitment to connecting people to real food.

With each new restaurant opening, sweetgreen strives to bring healthy, fresh food to as many community members as possible.

The new location will offer an estimated 2,752 square foot space to accommodate up to 30 indoor diners, with additional seating for 30 on its outdoor patio. Added design elements include neon signage and a plaster colorful canvas, inspired by the southern coastline, commissioned by local artist Sara Marlowe Hall.

“With each new market we enter, we take a really close look at what the community needs and wants, and what sweetgreen can offer,'' said sweetgreen Co-founder and Chief Concept Officer, Nicolas Jammet. “Carlsbad has an extremely vibrant, active community and we’re thrilled to be opening our doors to provide healthy, flavorful food to everyone in the area.”
