The Herb N' Kitchen service model is based on our three brand pillars. Everywhere you look: Fresh ingredients, menu and service model, lively, open environment and friendly staff. An all-day dining concept that reflects current trends and tastes and puts guests in charge of what, when and where they eat. Guests feel comfortable with menu choices and options, the open and inviting space, and the staff's welcoming service style.
In the "Oven Zone" guests have a close-up view of the culinary team and their ingredients. That's why fresh isn't just a brand pillar, it's part of our DNA.
Freshly prepared and packaged foods, popular brand snacks and beverages, and local favorites find shelf [and cooler] space in the retail-style Gourmet Marketplace.
Guests welcome the speed and convenience - either pick up or delivery in a chic disposable "brown bag" approach; operators appreciate the model's simplicity and cost.
Mandatory menu items are listed, hotels must include the menu items at the minimum and maximum numbers. Optional recipes are provided for some menu items that are Herb N' Kitchen developed. Hotel is given choice to use provided recipe options.
