We are pleased to represent Dig Inn and look forward to helping this growing concept expand its presence in the tri-state area.”
Dig Inn’s nutrient-rich menu includes popular build-your-own market plates,feature two side dishes and protein on a bed of grains or greens. Market sides include roasted cauliflower, golden beets and kale, while proteins range from charred chicken and meatballs to braised beef or salmon. The average meal price is around $10.
