Rock Bottom Foundation is the corporate giving arm for Rock Bottom Restaurants, Inc. which includes, Rock Bottom Restaurants and Brewery, Old Chicago Restaurants, The Chop House and Brewery brands, Sing Sing, Walnut Brewery and Boulder Beer Company. Dedicated to combating hunger in the communities in which they live and operate restaurants, the Foundation provides support through the restaurants to organizations and programs that address this social issue. Rock Bottom Restaurants believes in giving back to the communities in which they do business. All of the restaurants are casual dining establishments featuring friendly attentive service, high-quality, moderately priced food, and a distinctive selection of micro brewed and specialty beer served in a comfortable and entertaining atmosphere.
Rock Bottom Restaurant’s mission statement is “to run great restaurants for the benefit of our guests, our communities and ourselves”. To that end, the firm started the Foundation, which became the engine for all of the firm’s volunteer projects, and the giving to and support of the community, specifically in the area of hunger and homelessness. The Foundation also facilitates the firm’s support of any of its employees who are in a crisis situation, a home fire, a medical emergency, a death in the family, or any other unexpected needs.
