Our higher purpose is to energize the vitality of all living beings and the planet.
Our Positive Eating Journey
We started Life Alive in 2004 to serve vibrant, organic whole food in a welcoming, stress-free environment.
We knew we were onto something when we consistently heard from guests that our meals filled them with the energy needed to power their day and our cafes served as an urban oasis to relax and recharge.
This set us on the path to explore the powerful connection between what we eat and how we feel. Over the past ten years, the more we’ve learned about people, food and mood, the more it’s clear that what we eat is central to living the way we want to live it—filled with energy, optimism and simply feeling good inside and out.
This notion led us to the powerful belief that eating positively—in a way that fosters joy, nourishes your body and respects the planet—is a delicious path toward living positively.
It’s also why, in a world of rushed assembly lines and salad bars, we run a chef’s kitchen. Where every hearty warm grain bowl, flavorful salad, protein-filled wrap, steaming bowl of noodles and nutritious smoothie is chef-crafted and scratch prepared to order. And every thoughtfully-sourced organic ingredient is there for a reason.
We invite you to grab a comfortable seat and discover the uplifting and freeing power of eating food you crave, that also fuels the life you crave.
Life Alive. Eat Positive. Live Positive.
