At Parkhurst Dining, innovation isn’t about chasing trends – it’s about creating meaningful change. Our core value, We Seek Innovation, challenges us to ask better questions, listen closely, and evolve with intention. Whether we’re crafting bold, new menu experiences or integrating transformative technologies, our goal is simple: to bring people together through dining that’s more connected, convenient, and impactful.

Our most meaningful innovations start at the source. Through our Know Your Source program, we partner with local farmers, growers, and artisans to deliver responsibly sourced ingredients that fuel fresher meals – and stronger communities. From reducing food miles to creating seasonal, plant-forward menus, we design every experience with sustainability in mind.
