The project
FDP designed a refreshed serving line for Spring Branch ISD, trading a dated cafeteria counter for a sleek, retail-style setup that keeps lunch lines moving. A black-tile serving counter runs the length of the space, pairing hot service and self-serve beverages with open-air refrigerated merchandisers stocked for grab-and-go — cold entrées, milk, and snacks that students can grab without waiting on a hot line.
Overhead glass shelving and clear sightlines let students see their options at a glance, and point-of-sale stations at the end of the counter speed up checkout. The result is a clean, high-throughput line that serves a busy campus quickly while looking more like a modern café than a traditional cafeteria.
