sweetgreen makes salads and grain bowls, with online ordering, catering and Outpost office delivery.
The saving rule that matters most is where you order: sweetgreen Rewards pays 10 points per $1 on app, website and in-store purchases, while third-party and catering orders earn nothing.
sweetgreen splits its menu into salads, warm bowls and sides, with builds such as Kale Caesar, Guacamole Greens, Harvest Bowl, Chicken Pesto Parm and the tofu-based Shroomami, plus an online-only Buffalo Chicken. Several bowls use antibiotic-free chicken, the rosemary focaccia comes from regional bakery partners, and drinks include Hibiscus Clover Tea. Menu items list their allergens, and a nutrition and allergen guide is linked from the site.
For employers, sweetgreen pairs catering and Outpost office drops with a credits program that subsidizes meals for remote staff. The company also runs a fundraising program, asks customers where it should open next and posts kitchen tutorials on TikTok, including one for its cashew dressing. Its site frames the brand around inspiring healthier communities.

More about shopping at sweetgreen
Ordering
Order in the sweetgreen app, on its website or in store; catering and third-party delivery marketplaces are options too.
Fees
An order can carry bag, service and delivery fees, so the bowl price can rise by checkout.
Refunds
Fees are non-refundable unless sweetgreen approves; if an item is discontinued or unavailable, it may cancel and refund that item.
sweetgreen Rewards
Earn 10 points per $1; points expire 180 days after deposit, and members must be US residents aged 16+.
Gift cards
Physical and electronic cards never expire and carry no fees, but don't work on third-party delivery apps or the merch shop.
sweetgreen's own terms center on its Rewards program rather than promo codes, so the channel you order through decides what you keep.
Points build only on orders placed in the app, on the website or in a restaurant.
Catering orders and third-party marketplaces earn none.
Gift cards follow a similar line: they pay for online menu orders and in-store meals, but a third-party delivery app won't accept them.
If something you ordered is discontinued or out of stock, sweetgreen may cancel the order and refund what you paid for that item.
Bag, service and delivery fees stay non-refundable unless it approves otherwise.

Points reward regular visits, because each batch expires 180 days after it lands in your account.
Ordering direct keeps both the points and the gift card on the table.
