OUR STORY
CHOPT IS A
CREATIVE SALAD COMPANY
Our mission? To make healthy eating exciting for all people.
From classic cravings to seasonal collaborations, we challenge ourselves to create a menu that celebrates flavors from around the world and opens up a seat at the table for anyone who wants to join.
OUR VALUES

INNOVATE
We constantly innovate our menu and technologies to give you better access to nutritious food and a better (more convenient) way to enjoy it.
SERVE WITH URGENCY
We value giving you a seamless experience rooted in hospitality, with respect for your time and accuracy with each order.
BE GENEROUS
Chopt Gives allows us to give year round, and support our Chopt communities, team members and the charitable partners we believe in.
