VISITING LOCAL GUEST RESTAURANT POPUP EXPERIENCES

The lunch experience your employees will actually look forward to.

Fooda Popup brings a rotating lineup of real local restaurants directly to your workplace. Every day, a different restaurant sets up, serves, and feeds your team. Hot, fresh, and made to order. It's not just lunch. It's the experience that makes coming to the office worth it.

Why Fooda Popup?

Watch how Fooda turns an ordinary lunch break into something people actually look forward to. Real restaurants, real people, rotating daily. All managed for you, wherever your employees have lunch.

A different restaurant. Every single day.

Fooda curates and schedules a rotating lineup of local restaurants specifically for your team. One day it's a neighborhood taco spot, the next it's a local ramen shop. Employees always have something to look forward to, and lunch never gets old.

Restaurant staff show up. They serve. They clean up. You do nothing.

Each restaurant sets up in your space, serves fresh made-to-order meals for about two hours, then packs up and heads out. Meals are priced at or below what employees would pay in store. No catering coordination, no invoices to chase, no mess left behind.

Perfected over more than a decade. Ready for your workplace.

Since 2011, Fooda has built and refined the playbook for onsite popup dining across thousands of workplaces nationwide. From scheduling and restaurant curation to employee communications and day-of logistics, we handle everything. You just show up to a great lunch.

Is a Popup right for your workplace?

Popup works best when restaurant partners can count on consistent volume. Two things drive that: how many employees are in the office on a given day, and whether you're offering a meal subsidy. Slide to see what your program might look like.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a workplace dining program using popup restaurants

A popup restaurant workplace dining program brings a different local restaurant to your office each day.
