Our Dream, Our Contribution to the Roger Williams Community

We are a culture driven to create food that is alive with flavor and nutrition, prepared from scratch using authentic ingredients. We do this in a socially responsible manner for the well-being of our guests, communities and the environment.

At Bon Appétit, we believe food service serves a much larger purpose than simply sustenance. Dining rooms are gathering places. Breaking bread together helps to create a sense of community and comfort. We recognize the important role we fill and take great care to honor our position on a school campus. We show this care in our operations every day by…

• Cooking food from scratch using fresh seasonal ingredients

• Taking our role in the community seriously and making socially responsible purchasing decisions in regards to produce, seafood, coffee and disposable plates and service ware

• Serving great tasting, authentic and nutritious food that exceeds the expectations of our guests including vegetarian, vegan, and international diners

• Providing opportunities for all our employees, including student workers, to develop their potential and abilities

• Recognizing that every client we serve is unique and creating tailored food programs for each one

• Serving a wide variety of menu items at each meal, each day keeping things fresh, fun, and interesting – you won’t find a cycle menu at a Bon Appétit account
