New Restaurant Concept Adds More Convenience to the Menu

Mendocino Farms, the fast-casual restaurant known for turning sandwiches, salads and more into an unexpected culinary adventure, is debuting its first-ever mobile order pick-up lane, in conjunction with the opening of the new Scripps Ranch Marketplace location (10715 Scripps Poway Pkwy.) on Tuesday, Nov. 5. This new addition will offer guests another convenient way to enjoy the fresh fare they love without leaving their vehicles, especially during the busiest moments of their day.  

“At Mendocino Farms, we’re always envisioning ways to enhance our guests’ experience,” said Kevin Miles, CEO of Mendocino Farms. “This new concept is a direct reflection of how we are evolving to meet their needs, as they navigate life on the go, without compromising on the quality of our food or the “Eat Happy” ethos that they know and love.” 

To celebrate the grand opening, guests who create a My Mendo account and select “San Diego-Scripps Ranch” as their favorite location prior to opening day will receive a special offer for a free entrée with any menu purchase.
