Bistro Verde

Welcome to Bistro Verde — home of great culinary and hospitality experiences at LLCC!

We are located inside the east entrance of the Workforce Careers Center on LLCC’s main campus at 5250 Shepherd Road in Springfield.

Bistro Verde is the dining room and kitchen lab space that serves as an active classroom for our very own student-run restaurant, which is open to the public most Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. during the fall and spring semesters. Bistro Verde is also the location for student dinners, LLCC Community Education culinary dinners, and other great culinary and hospitality experiences.
