Our Driving Force: Food is Our Story Newk's is an express casual dining experience in a refreshing and stylish atmosphere with an emphasis on freshness and flavor. An eatery built on made-from-scratch recipes, crafted with premium seasonal ingredients, that are a cut above the rest. We bring the best of the best to our menu, prepare it with pride in our open kitchen, and offer it up to you the way a friend would – with an ample dose of generosity and a smile. Newk’s Eatery treats you like a friend. We host you like one. We talk to you like one. We take pride in how we feed you. Put simply, we just do it right, because we respect our relationship. Since the first restaurant opened in Jackson, Miss. in 2004, Newk’s Eatery has indulged guests with a curated selection of the Newcomb family’s finest scratch-made recipes. It all starts with impeccable seasonal ingredients, even if that means sourcing from the other side of the globe. At Newk’s, every meal is prepared to-order in an open-view kitchen. The robust menu offers grilled & toasted sandwiches, more than a dozen entrée salads, kettle-batch soups and hand-rolled pizzas for lunch and dinner, as well as signature Dozen-Layer Cakes baked in Newk’s in-house bakery. All ingredients – including dressings, fruits and vegetables – are hand-prepped, and all meats are hand-sliced and flame-grilled so every Newk’s meal is truly served fresh. Newk’s currently operates and franchises more than 125 restaurants in 15 states and is gaining national attention for its accelerated growth and commitment to quality food. Nation’s Restaurant News, Restaurant Business Magazine, Fast Casual Magazine, Technomic, Franchise Times and more have named Newk’s as one of the top fast casual brands in America.
