To celebrate the grand opening of their newest Washington D.C. location at 618 12th St., NW, Chop’t® Creative Salad Company will be holding their trademark pre-opening “training day” celebration on Monday, August 25 – when guests can enjoy all salads and salad sandwiches free of charge. Lunch will be served “on the house” from 11:00 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. or until the last bit of lettuce is gone. There is a limit of one meal per customer.

The new Chop’t at Metro Center will formally open for business on Tuesday, August 26th. Regular hours of operation will be: Monday through Friday from 10:30 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., Saturday from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and Sunday from 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Catering can be arranged by calling 202-783-0007. Catering and delivery services will also be available at this location.

Co-founder Colin McCabe comments, “Tony and I are excited to invite our new Metro Center neighbors to come by this Monday to try our fresh and delicious food. This is our fourth Chop’t in the D.C. area and we’ve got more locations in the works.” He adds: “This market has taken to our brand with wide-open arms and we are thrilled with the overwhelming enthusiasm and great suggestions we receive at the stores and online.” The company’s traditional pre-opening training day festivities are just one way in which both McCabe and co-founder Shure can show their appreciation to the growing base of Chop’t fans in the D.C. community.

Other local area Chop’t restaurants are located at 1735 N. Lynn Street, Rosslyn, VA; 1300 Connecticut Avenue, NW, Washington D.C.; and 730 7th St N.W. Washington, D.C.
