Dining Services

Cincinnati Country Day School partners with SAGE Dining Services, a premier provider of dining services and gourmet catering since 1990 to private schools, colleges, and corporations in the eastern United States, to prepare nutritious lunches for all students, faculty, and staff.

SAGE balances the competing interests in today’s students’ menu choices, where popular items and healthy fare are balanced to satisfy the interests of parents, students, faculty, and administrators.

Our Dining Terrace menu rotates on a 5 week cycle. The CCDS community is able to choose from the following daily selections:

  • Salad Works - abundantly fresh salad bar featuring specialty salads daily as well as an overflowing fresh fruit station.
  • Classic Cut Deli® - featuring a wide variety of meats and cheese along with tuna salad and smoked turkey daily.
  • Stock Exchange - Our soup station provides two homemade soups from scratch, one being vegetarian.
  • The Main Ingredient® – the hot entrée station includes two entrées, one vegetarian, a starch, and two fresh vegetables.
  • Transit Fare® - to go foods, featuring pre-made wraps, packaged vegetables, and yogurt cups.
  • Baltimore Baking Company – a wide variety of desserts and breads.
  • Splashes - our extensive selection of beverages.

New this year is our Oriental Rice Bar.
