Set to open this Thursday morning, his brand-new food-court style dining area can host up to 325 staff members and will feature an abundance of dining options for staff to enjoy, including specialty entrees, healthy choices, fresh-made sandwiches and salads, pizza, burgers and more.

“As we continue to trailblaze and redefine what it means to be a resort casino, our priority is continuing to provide innovative and high-quality experiences for everyone that walks through our halls – not just our guests, but our team members, as well. These new openings signify another wave of enhancements to show our appreciation for all that have supported us over the past thirty years. We are just getting started.”

To add to the excitement, for International Women’s Month, Foxwoods celebrated future female leaders by hosting troop members from both Girl Scouts of Southeastern New England and Connecticut at one of Foxwoods favorite dining destinations, Sugar Factory. Both councils were surprised with a $15,000 donation each as part of this year’s 30^th anniversary celebrations, where Foxwoods has pledged $30,000 a month to local community organizations.

A destination for all, Foxwoods Resort Casino is a place where millions have celebrated life’s big and small moments. These new openings and renovation projects aim to enhance the overall guest and workplace experience, showcasing that the resort continues to get better every year.

In February, Foxwoods celebrated its 30^th milestone anniversary with an impressive lineup of announcements including the addition of Great Wolf Lodge at Mashantucket, a new Rainmaker Expo Center and a High Stakes Bingo Hall.
