Maxims:

At Face Plant, we ground our actions in the below maxims that the founding team created in the early days of our brand. They may evolve and we would love to have you on that journey.

• We will find a way. In building something new, we will face countless brick walls in our path. Each represents an initial failure – and failure is often the only way forward for us. We must be water against the brick and find a way through grit and ingenuity, and at times a different path entirely. Hard does not mean we are wrong. Hard means we are the first, and we should draw energy and pride from the hard.
• Our first customers are our employees. The only way we deliver a magical experience for the customers we serve, is if we deliver on that same promise for the employees who lead us in each of our restaurants. In doing so, we can become the best service place to work in the world.
• The answer is the connection we can create. Only through forging a deeper relationship than ever before with our customers – through caring, generosity, and joy – will we bend the arc. Connection not commerce. Community not commerce. And know, that the value of any decision which prioritizes that customer relationship will drive far greater value than the few dollars or cents it may cost us in the moment.
• Focus on the few. What are the one or two things we must be exceptional at? Let’s do those and nothing else. Focus unlocks the otherwise impossible – to make something incredible, and to do it with great urgency and speed.
• Character matters. The journey can only be achieved through the make-up of our character, built on humility, diversity, trust, and togetherness – and some fun along the way.
