Live Alive has been a new go-to cafe for me. If I'm in a hurry, there is a fridge with quick items…read morelike the "chia power bowl" which is a favorite of mine. If you have a few minutes to wait, the staff is usually very quick with to-go items. In the morning I love their egg sandwich and a matcha. Lunch time I enjoy an açaí bowl or squash bisque. There are many healthy options offered that can accommodate most allergies. The interior of the Boylston location is very cool. I have not dined in there but the seating looks inviting to chat with a friend over lunch or grab a coffee and work.

We got the Shitake Udon and the Buddha Bowl and both were great. The udon came at the perfect warm-but-not-too-hot temperature and the Buddha bowl had the perfect mix of flavors and textures. After ordering at the counter, our food came out within ten minutes. The only thing to note is that the seating area is smaller than other Life Alive locations and the tables are very close to each other. We got veryyy cozy with our neighbors, so it's probably not the best place if you're looking for some peace and quiet.

Stopped by here for an impromptu lunch with a friend after Zumba class…read more The place was quite crowded as usual and we looked around for seating and decided to sit at the bar. Nice decor at the bar. You can order from the same food menu. I ordered the nana's egg sandwich in a pita - it was essentially an omelette sandwich with boursin, olive tapenade, cucumber, tomato and schug which is a green hot sauce which I got on the side. It was quite interesting- not what I had expected and next time I would ask to omit the olive tapenade. I asked for ketchup to add in. It was a really good portion- probably 2 or 3 eggs. Very hearty and filling. The friend ordered the eggplant quinoa bowl which comes in this sauce and very cheesy. Comes with bread - really tasty! Bartender was friendly and service was great!

So I had to repeat my order and was ignored by their conversation and music. When I finally got their attention; I placed my order and paid .

There are a few small bistro tables, so we sat and had our drinks there. Overall 2.5 stars -- fresh juice, but that Yelp photo ruined the experience for me. Probably wouldn't come back.

I had a terrible experience at The Thinking Cup at Boston Common…read more On my first visit, I ordered a lox bagel sandwich with cream cheese and smoked salmon. The lettuce looked old, the tomatoes weren't ripe, and although I asked for it to be cut in half, it wasn't. The quality was so poor that I ended up throwing it away. During that first visit, I asked one of the employees if he was the manager. He said he wasn't, but that he "should be." A few days later, I decided to give them another chance. The cashier was pleasant, so I tipped--but the experience quickly went downhill. I ended up speaking with the same employee who was there during my first visit, working behind the counter. He was a male in his mid-to-late 20s with facial hair and said his name was "Jack," although based on his rude behavior, I have no reason to believe that was his real name. After speaking with him, I now understand exactly why he isn't--and shouldn't be--the manager. When I explained my previous experience, he responded, "I really don't care." I was shocked. He repeated it multiple times, was rude, snapped at another employee, and refused to provide any manager or corporate contact information. At that point, I lost my appetite. After leaving the establishment, I gave the sandwich away and fed the lemon bread to the pigeons. The only bright spot was the cashier and another female employee, who were both polite and professional. Even as I was leaving, they kindly said, "Thank you, have a nice day," and seemed sincere. Unfortunately, one person's behavior completely ruined the experience. I will not be returning and would not recommend this location.

3 Stars for a good protein smoothie bowl, but meh customer service and a truly filthy bathroom…read more I was looking for a quick, healthy bite while doing some window shopping in the area and saw Pressed Juicery had a small location a few steps down from the sidewalk, with outdoor seating. Since it was beautiful outside, this looked like the right spot! They also had a poster highlighting their Protein functional bowl, so I knew my order. As I walked in, the staff member at the counter was on her Bluetooth headphones and having a full conversation with a friend while simultaneously trying to take down someone's order. It was confusing to everyone involved and took some time. Same when I ordered, and it looked like another friend had come in and joined her behind the counter to chat (didn't see any sign of this person working there, but I may be wrong). Oh well, a bit of an awkward ordering process is not a big deal. The bowl itself was actually really tasty. It was a bit sweet for my taste, but it was large and satiating. I'd definitely recommend! Quick note that if you are needing the bathroom, I'd wait until your next stop. It was one pretty dirty stall and left me wondering if I should have eaten there... Overall, a good product, but the service and cleanliness of the facility left something to be desired.

Being situated across from the beach, this gem is the perfect spot to grab a smoothie and enjoy the day. What I love the most? The service and friendliness of the staff. They are so excited about this place, their offerings, and want you to love it. Which I did. They were so helpful, and made the experience worth going back to again and again! Order: The S'mores shake (HOW is this ~200 calories?!) and blue mega tea. Yum! A bit pricey in total, but comparable to any other place in Boston.

While you would never guess the presence of protein powder, the taste of peanut butter is slightly overwhelming. As a caveat you are not getting a milk shake, but as far as protein based smoothies go definitively worth a shot. The girls working were the sweetest and worked with me to pick a flavor! Tip: Maybe split a flavor, they are good sized and filling!

I…read morewould definitely recommend their new Protein Acai bowl, it has amazing macros and is packed with tasty and healthy ingredients!! I appreciate that their base isn't overly sweet and they give an abundance of toppings for an amazing variety of texture. To be fair, this spot is a little pricey so maybe a treat just every once in a while, but you're bound to be satisfied anytime you do choose to come! They also offer some delicious ice cream and smoothie options, perfect for a quick treat on a hot day if you're not craving a full meal but still want something on the healthy side. From my experience, the service is kind and helpful, and the vibes (which are similar across all their locations) feel very pristine and calming. I definitely recommend this spot and can't wait to try more of their flavor combos!

However, my most recent experiences have been better! I have been greeted with kind service and my orders have been made well. I haven't tried the freezes again since my last experience, but the acai bowl I had was great. The portions were what I expected and the server even was kind to let me pick a different topping on bowl since they were out of one of the standard toppings. I appreciated the attention to detail and taking a moment to make my experience better, rather than just skipping out on the topping. This recent experience was encouraging enough for me to come back sometime soon.

I came here to get lunch while visiting Boston…read more The space itself is really cool -- makes me feel a lot cooler than I actually am! It also seemed like a nice place to read/get some work done. The menu is really varied -- a lot of different cuisines. It took me a bit to order but staff were patient and friendly. I ordered the mushroom shawarma pita and an açaí bowl. The bowl was delicious! They have their own smoothie bar that's separate from the rest of the kitchen and was served quickly. The mushroom shawarma pita was a bit disappointing. The flavors were good, but it was layered poorly, with all of the mushroom at the top of the pita, making for inconsistent bites. The sauces themselves seemed delicious. I would definitely come back to try different things!
