New San Francisco school cafeteria feels more like a start-up

The café features digital menu boards, casual seating and more food options.

SAN FRANCISCO — San Francisco opened its first redesigned school cafeteria this week, with digital menu boards, casual seating and several options for grabbing lunch without a long line.

Roosevelt Middle School offered the district’s first “Future Dining Experience” and was part of the school’s renovations funded by bonds.

“We are thrilled to open the new Roosevelt cafeteria and share our vision for the future of SFUSD dining district-wide,” Superintendent Richard A. Carranza, said in a statement. “I am adamant that we promote good eating habits and provide high quality, nutritious and appealing food to our diverse student population.”

The new design includes “interactive wall graphics, new furniture, which includes dining tables with various seating configurations, and a lounge area.”
