Academy Cafe

Our Culinary Arts Program was established in 1998 to fulfill the rapid growth and demands of the food service industry. Here at the Paso Robles Culinary Arts Academy, our program trains and prepares junior and senior high school students for entry into this exciting career. What makes this learning and production education unique is that it offers students an opportunity to work and operate in an actual restaurant, which prepares them for an easy transition into actual employment in area restaurants. This experience increases their value to their future employers as well as they learn a wide variety of skills from table service, catering, breakfast, lunch, dinner, menu production, and a wide variety of baking and costing procedures. This vocational course was designed in conjunction with what is actually required by chefs and restaurateurs for employment in their businesses. Your patronage at the Academy Cafe becomes an important part of the students' education and future.
