    If you have 40 minutes to spare for a bagel sandwich. They have 3 people back there and just not putting a hustle in the bustle. .shit my car is probably towed just waiting for this

    I'm from Florida and only visit Tacoma once a year, but first stop is always Happy Belly. Not only is the staff always super nice, everything on the menu is not only delicious but genuinely healthy. You leave feeling full and actually good afterward. Their restaurant also has a little shop inside with items for sale from locals which is cute. If you're in Tacoma and want food that tastes great and makes you feel great, Happy Belly is the spot!

    Mushroom coffee + oat milk = surprisingly delicious  And this sandwich... packed with flavor and honestly perfect.
    Megan M.

    I let the cashier choose my meal today and she did not disappoint! The mushroom coffee has a very mild taste, but with oat milk it was surprisingly delicious. The sandwich was full of flavor and absolutely perfect for me. So glad I trusted the recommendation!

    My green smoothie!!!

    Delicious green smoothie and I'm obsessed with the fact that I can drink my hylauronics and collagen! With a super friendly staff! I am from the Bay and have no smoothie options that offer this much luck to their business! I will definitely come back when I am back in WA!

    my husband and I have been wanting to try this restaurant for sometime. We finally got an opportunity and they did not miss the food was great. The only fuzzy thing that I would say, is that when we arrived as we stood at the counter for at least five minutes before someone came over to acknowledge us. I decided to give them some grace because they did look busy and we really wanted to try their food. The ambience is super cool love to be there once they took our order. They were very friendly so yeah I would recommend this for you to go pretty good food.

    Vegan Egg & Roasted Kale Breakfast Sandwich

    I'm not sure there are enough letters in the alphabet for me to express how much I LOVE this little restaurant/cafe. I stumbled upon it while on lunch and decided I would stop in for a bite to eat. The first thing I noticed was the positive welcoming vibes and the great atmosphere this place offers. There are about 12-14 bistro style tables inside and a few tables outside as well. After taking a few minutes to review the menu I settled on the vegan egg sandwich and the Bacon Caesar salad. I ordered at the counter and found my seat moments later. Service was wonderfully kind and everything I ordered was bursting with flavor. I honestly cannot wait to go again.

    I love healthy Happy Belly! Don't get me wrong, if you want to be decadent, you can be as indulgent as you desire. I just ordered the level up smoothie. I was amazed and with over 40 grams of protein, it made my daily requirement a lot easier to achieve.It tasted incredibly delicious. I really want to try their specialized 3day juice detox fast but I will check with my nutritionist since I have special needs The staff, their standards, the environment, and their willingness to modify an order are all Outstanding. Please stop by or call in an order. Lunchtime gets packed, so place the order early. Support local businesses good people. We don't need another chain of fast processed food designed to tear down our bodies.

    Spinach Apple Salad w/ lemon oregano vinaigrette, chicken & avocado added
    Veronica C.

    This place and the food here lives up to its name ! Eat at Happy Belly and your belly will be happy! I've gotten several different items off the menu ranging from sandwiches to salads to soups to smoothies to baked goodies and I'm satisfied with the taste and quality of the food as well as the service 99% of the time. I really love the sweet and spicy bacon ceaser salad, the red pepper kale soup which is served with a roll and delicious herb butter spread, just about any of the chocolate smoothies and the strawberry rhubarb muffin but it's been a while since I've been in and I noticed two new menu items so I decided to give them a try: spinach apple salad and the Moon magick smoothie! Both items were insanely good! I asked for some additions/modifications to the salad and the employees were happy to help. It normally comes with a blue cheese dressing and I am not a fan of moldy cheese so they were able to substitute that out for a lemon oregano vinaigrette and I added chicken and avocado at an additional charge. It was so beautiful it made my skin tingle and the flavors and textures caused positive explosions of saliva in my mouth ! The moon magick smoothie was simply, well, magical! Between the caocao, cinnamon, coconut,collagen , peanut butter, ginger, dandelion and beets It was equally delicious and flavorful! It's pretty spendy but I always feel like I'm making a healthier choice when I choose to come here over the other restaurants around the area and because of that I will always show my support for Happy Belly !

    A comparison to another locally owned businesses that sells drinks and food in a bigger space. This place (in the photo) gives all its proceeds to sheltering homeless youth. Be intentional with you dollar and value who values you.

    This is a wonderful and beautiful place. As a first timer to Washington, I wasn't sure what I would find. I walked for over an hour to every nearby coffee shop looking for somewhere to eat that offered gluten-free options. Just as I was ready to give up, I saw Happy Belly right at the end of the list on Yelp, peeked at their menu, and almost ran because I was so excited. I ordered an iced sweet matcha (one of the best matchas I've had), and a turkey cranberry sandwich on GF bread. I was speechless. It was one of the best meals I've had. It is so rare to find a place to eat where I feel safe eating and don't have to second guess whether I'm being glutened. The energy in here is just beautiful and I am so thankful that I found this place before giving up, it's one of those places that I'll be thinking about long after I have to end my trip here. The service was top tier. The owner, Jennifer, has beautiful, positive energy, and she is so welcoming. Sitting inside felt so peaceful and intentional-- something you just don't get in standard restaurants or coffee shops. Their menu is labeled for GF/DF/Soy free/Vegan making it so easy and safe to really know what you're ordering. If one of those things is part of your diet, you will have so many choices! I love Happy Belly, and I hope I can return for my next few meals before I depart. Thank you for being here, and offering atmosphere and food that is welcoming, safe, and sure did make my belly happy!

The menu also shows sandwiches, soups and warm bowls. I don't know the area well but surprised they didn't have more people in during the lunch hour. My only negative is they don't seem to realize when customers enter as they are not greeted and can take several minutes before someone comes up front and realizes a customer or food delivery pick up is waiting. Would definitely go back when in the area.

My boyfriend got their garden wrap with a garlic and herb tortilla while I got their Washington Apple wrap with a garlic and herb tortilla. There was an order ahead of us but the employees got the orders made in a good amount of time and presentation was a nice touch too. The wraps had a great ratio of all the listed ingredients and you can yaste everything in each bite. The ingredients tasted and looked fresh! The interior is very cozy with plenty of seating that accommodates solo, couples or small groups. They have great lighting in there, both natural and inside. They had some old school RnB playing which was nostalgic for me as I heard a lot of these as a pre-teen. Definitely a fantastic spot, especially if you are trying to eat or be more healthy conscious but still have a flavorful meal!

Ordered the lamb shawarma and pelmeni at the counter on the way in. The shawarma is wrapped in lavash which is actually brilliant and it was delightfully flaky and crispy. The filling itself was delicious, tender lamb and pungently garlicky sauce--just what a rich meat needs to cut the flavor. The pelmeni comes with a side of sour cream, and I have to say that the flavor was not anything remarkable, and really depended on the sour cream to give it that boost. Figured out afterwards that this restaurant is attached to the neighboring spa, which is a no-frills Slavic-style facility from which patrons can order food during their spa day. The two establishments also share the adjoining billiards/rec room. Now for the reason one star was taken off: while the eating area is well-kept, the bathroom which is accessible through the billiards room was long-neglected, the trash can overflowing and the toilet paper missing--I had to poke around in the cabinet to find a new roll. They say a restaurant is only as clean as its bathroom, and I think you can say the same thing for a spa.

I always appreciate when a coffee shop serves drinks in real glasses/mugs, which they do here. The service was fast and the employee I spoke to was very nice. My only complaints are the parking lot and that, like most coffee places, it's a little expensive. The parking lot is truly miserable to park in. Super tight and precarious, and my car is a pretty averaged size SUV. You're better off street parking on the busy road it's on and walking. There's seating inside, but not tons. Limited options on a Friday morning that I went. Other than these (admittedly small) complaints, this is a nice coffee shop and I'd definitely stop by again next time I'm in the area. Always nice to support a local place over the big chains.
