I came in for some mid lunch snacks and tried their strawberry overnight oat compote. It was truly a delicious healthy treat. It was light and airy yet rich with oats and fruit. It said strawberry but honestly it tasted like banana pudding! I also got their spinach and sweet and sour chicken which was a nice meal in itself. If you love a healthy spot in Flatiron, I would stop by here! There is seating inside as well. Staff was pleasant and quick. Accepts cash, card and Apple Pay. Takeout and dine in available. Bon appetit! read more

You know how sometimes when you decide to eat healthy but eat it so begrudgingly cuz you love your fatty foods ? not here. the hawaiian bowl was so tasty, and you'll leave feeling full but not gross. i'm going to need to go back there and try other dishes. I was there 5:00 ish and the place was empty. prob in between the lunch and dinner crowd and i can see this being a good spot for ordering in. Service was friendly. and i was able to work on my laptop. read more

Honeybrains - Hawaiian bowl - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - New York, New York

Another healthy food spot in the city. Love the location in the city. The team was really helpful when it came to ordering off the menu - there are plenty of fresh selections. The store inside is very aesthetic to look at and was a good experience to sit and relax. I didn't really know the backstory but the foods on the menu are actually curated to be good for the brain. They also host events dedicated to brain health. Food wise, decided to go with the Super Sweet Potato Bowl - it was good, nothing too crazy special. I feel like a lot of their dishes feel that way - healthy with no crazy flavors. I will admit some of their other bowls like the Nori Nirvana or Zen Curry do sound good, as well as the kim-cheese sandwich. I'll be back to try those out. read more

I found Honeybrains from their Instagram page and thought I'd give it a try. I tried the protein pepper steak bowl and it was delicious. The quality of the meat was excellent and you can clearly tell that they use all fresh ingredients. For NYC, I think it's very reasonably priced for healthy food. I can't wait to come back and try other items on the menu. It was so yummy! read more

The food here was delicious! It was a perfect amount for lunch and I loved the miso salmon. It was cooked perfectly and had a good amount of flavor. There was a lot of seating available and not crowded. Would definitely recommend! read more

So I only leave reviews if I love or hate a place lol. But I haven't been back to Honeybrains in over a year being bicoastal and was in the neighborhood coming out of the gym so I came looking for the jerk salmon bowl (which they sadly got rid of). But the employee there suggested maybe the chirashi bowl with miso salmon - BOMB!!! Was so good I just walked out and had to leave a review lol. I didn't get the girls name (had bangs and a hat) but she was so nice and helpful and just seemed happy lol - not typical for a walk in type of food place! So that was nice (when I would go would usually be the downtown location and don't recall the same type of service!). But that bowl! Miso salmon was sooooo perfectly marinated and cooked. I make that at home marinating it for days and haven't gotten it like that yet. But the wasabi sauce was such a surprise. Amazing. I think the owners and chef were having a meeting right on the floor but I so badly wanted to interrupt it to tell them to please keep this bowl and salmon in their plans forever lol. And shout out the chefs because these aren't your typical bland healthy bowls. They're healthy and so tasty! read more

The staff was friendly and open to answering questions. The food is average priced for a lunch in the area. There are plenty of healthy options and drink options as well. I had a sweet potato puree bowl and it did taste fresh. This location is pretty large with alot of seating and a bar area. I am not sure why they seem to have office supplies strewn all over next to the bar but it was kind of odd. This place was very quiet on a Saturday afternoon. It honestly seemed like they are on the brink of closing, but who knows? Maybe just a slow day. read more

The coffee was awful. The staff was not helpful. The ambiance was cute but that's about it.

I ordered pickup from here after getting a discount. The spot was super cute - it's bright and decorated according to theme with honeycomb shaped shelving on the side of the walls. I ordered the steak &mash with the recommended sauce. It wasn't bad but it wasn't wow either. It came with a serving of steak, a couple broccoli florets, a scoop of mashed potatoes, over a bed of spring mix. I thought it was a bit overpriced for what it was. The sauce was also throwing me off since it was green and thick. The steak wasn't bad though. read more

We came in just before closing. They took care of us without a fuss and the food was absolutely delicious. We love coming here when we are in this part of the city. read more

It's alright. For a $18 grain bowl, I was expecting more than overly salted rice with overly fried tofu. The kale bits were alright, but I ate it more so because I was starving than because I enjoyed it. The salt really was excessive, it felt like the salt shaker top came off it was being sprinkled in. read more

Healthy food options from breakfast to lunch and friendly staff. Both the food and drinks are delicious.

Really cute place, happy vibes, and aesthetically pleasing to the eyes! As you walk in towards the back to order food (you can order food at the juice bar I believe it is), there will be lots of seats and tables to sit at. The place is spacious and if you dine in, staff will ask you for your vaccination card. I've been here twice and loved both times I've been here. I've tried the Daily Catch brain bowl and the Chicken & Rice brain bowl. Both are gluten free (not that I don't eat gluten but it's nice to know) and the portion size is more than enough for one person. The Daily Catch brain bowl has Atlantic salmon garnished with crushed peanuts, cilantro & red chillies, kale, and Honeybrains seasoned sweet potatoes. It was a slightly weird combination with the sweet potatoes but it somehow worked. The salmon was a bit dry but with the sauce on the side (which I extremely appreciate so I can pour in how much I want), it was okay. The Chicken & Rice brain bowl had pulled free-range HB season chicken, Zaatar spiced chickpeas, Himalayan ruby rice, and raw baby spinach. I personally liked this one more probably because the chicken was pretty flavorful and I like rice! There was some green sauce on the side, again really appreciate that, and it was really delicious. This was recommended by the staff because I came in super hungry and couldn't decide what to pick so she picked it for me, making sure I didn't have any allergies or asking if there were any thing I wouldn't like. So far I've only encountered friendly staff and I can't complain! The food here can be a little pricey but as we all know, healthy food is always more pricey than fast food! Looking forward to trying more things in the menu! read more

It was my first time at this restaurant , the customer service was amazing, Joanna was very pleasant and knowledgeable of the menu. I had the waffles with mixed berries and along with the cauliflower soup and I was pleasantly surprised. I enjoyed the calm nature of the environment. read more

Oh, Honeybrains, how I wanted to love you... but your bowls are just bland. Something's just missing for me--maybe not enough sauce?? The portion sizes are good, so I'll give you props for that. But, otherwise, your lunch just didn't make my day. As for the process of ordering, it's confusing. I went in, and there are two stations (one for coffee and the other for food). It was immediately clear what to do. Once I figured things out, I went up to the food ordering area, and no one greeted me or navigated me where to go and what to do. Then, when I got back to my office with the food and started eating, I was like, "meh." I had ordered the salmon over rice and fresh spinach, which was dry. In other words, the small bit of sauce the meal came with was clearly not enough to flavor the meal. Oh, and speaking of the sauce, it was way too sweet for me. I guess it was made with honey (maybe all of their sauces are since the spot is called "honeybrains"), which is conceptually okay. But it was made with way too much honey IMHO. I agree with reviewer Michelle R. who said the menu sounds great in theory... but something just misses the mark for me. I only come into work 2 days a week now, so I want to be blown away with each lunch I purchase (I mean, the price of lunch in NYC is not cheap). So, if I'm going to spend $15, I want it to be hella good! read more

Not bad. Not great. For some reason I expected it to be better than it is. I dunno. It's ok. It's nothing special. And this particular branch kinda looks like a weird work in progress. I guess most people just take away. I dunno. I wasn't wildly impressed. However the staff were sweet. I'm not rushing back. read more

Honeybrains is amazing I would recommend to anyone that wants a cozy spot for some coffee and good eats.

Accidentally stumbled upon this place - super cute & clean cafe, plenty of space to work on a laptop. Nice employees. Food is very fresh, hot and most importantly healthy. Reasonably priced - $16 for a salmon bowl with greens and sweet potatoes which comes in a good portion. Honestly, I felt like I was eating a homemade meal read more

This place is great. Came here a few times and it's always nice to get greeted when you walk in. The egg and spinach wraps are the best here. also a nice place to sit down and chill on your laptop. Joanna always knows my order when I come in and she always takes care of me. read more

The ambience was great. The food tasted so clean and fresh! Aubrey was also so sweet!! Love the service.

I tried the Hibiscus Sunset and the Avocado toasts and they were great! Amazing customer service from Kavan!! Definitely coming back.

This was probably one of the better salad places that I've had. The food was extremely fresh and was served extremely quickly too. The staff were helpful and the environment felt like a cozy cafe to study or get work done. read more

Really cute lunch spot. Definitely love the decor and the bright, airy set up. The salads I've tried have been good - but definitely expensive for the portion you're receiving. If you add a protein on a salad, be prepared to spend $20. I've also noticed that the salad have been under-dressed so if I return, I'd be sure to ask for an extra dressing. I think this spot has great potential. I also think it's really cool that they have a supplement set up when you walk in. I'll report back after trying a few more items from their menu :) read more

In an area that's littered with lunch options (and fast casual bowl options) I don't think I'll be returning to Honeybrains. I ordered a chicken tikka bowl and subbed out the regular chicken for a chicken cutlet. Unfortunately the chicken ended up being the downfall of the bowl. You'd typically expect to find white meat in a cutlet, and instead this meat was dark and fatty. Surprising to see, especially in a spot that is considered to be health conscious. The rest of the veggies in the bowl weren't super flavorful, and I only ended up being able to stomach a very small amount. This could have just been the wrong order, because my coworkers all really seemed to enjoy their meal. Womp... if there is a next time I'll switch it up. read more

This place is perfect for a quick bite. There truly isn't anything else in the area where you can have something quick, healthy, AND great tasting! I am obsessed with the chicken sandwich. The bread is warm and the chicken is sooooo juicy. read more

I am actually pretty keen on this fancy but not fancy (don't worry, it's not fancy) healthy for your brain, lunch spot! Our group of 6 or 7 met here around 11:45 and had no problem finding a table for the lot of us. Everything on the menu looks amazing, and I love thinking that, for the most part, whatever I get will be good for me (or at least my brain). I got the Daily Catch Bowl and a Ginger shot. What I loved: The bowl was huge and filled to the rim with fresh kale. I didn't know if I'd like the peanuts they drizzle on top so they had no problem adding them on the side. (I ended up using all of them). The sweet potatoes that came with the bowl were insane. I'm not kidding, I tried to get each of my friends to try one. They tasted like french toast. Can something that sweet and delicious really be good for your brain???? The salmon was actually cooked perfectly. I am kind of shocked, because this is a fast casual place after all. But no, it was delicious. and a very generous portion of salmon as well. I will definitely be adding this into the rotation of lunch spots. read more

A place that purports to have designed the menu specifically with food that is good for the brain in mind will simultaneously get an eye roll and a curious glance from me. On the one hand, I don't like how blatantly gimmicky their marketing sounds. On the other hand....I want to eat food that's good for my brain, don't I? I must still be reeling from my New Year's revelry. Nurse my brain back to health, Honeybrains! I fully believe placebo effect to be a pretty good healer-- in this case what I'm referring to are shots like the citrus immunity one that Honeybrains suggests you should take to reduce cold symptoms. In the same way that hospital patients who receive reiki therapy often bleed less, believing and hoping a little bit of ginger and zinc will stave off a stuffy nose might do something for my immune system. One shot of this and there was more pep in my step, and that's good enough for me. The green goddess salad came with plenty of kale, dressed perfectly with the labneh anchovy dressing which, by the way, doesn't taste fishy at all. Not much in the way of texture going on in this salad, but the salmon I got on top was truly cooked to perfection. Both salmon and salad came as hefty portions, and I was more than full when I was done. Whether my brain is better for it than if I were to have eaten elsewhere remains to be seen. read more

This location is just as great as their first one. I always get the same order of salmon toast and I think this was done even better than the original. They are also on Mealpal. My new go to order is the wake and steak, the meat is always cooked medium rare and it comes with a delicious honey and basil sauce. I really love how tasty and healthy the food here is. read more

Do yourself a favor & get the nut & honey latte. For anyone that loves sweet (or honey in general), this signature latte is worth all the fuzzies your body needs on a cold day. I love the concept of Honeybrains - fuel your brain and body with wholesome goodness. AH-MAZING! FYI, it's a great space for a small, casual meeting over coffee or a quick lunch. But keep in mind that they're closed in Sundays! read more

Ordered takeout lunch via Ritual where I ordered ahead and was not disappointed at all. The place looked new, spacious and clean. I ordered the chicken tikka bowl and did not regret it all. The bowl was stuffed with kale, broccoli, rice and slices of marinated chicken. Portion-wise I was pretty happy with my lunch, likewise with the taste again. I'd like to come back here again and try the other stuff they offer. read more

Most awesome salad place in NYC and I have tried them all. Fresh, clean, higher quality ingredients than all of the usual salad places where the worker grabs a handful or scoop of whatever you choose in a metal bin that looks like it has been there for a while. They are pre made and quick to go. read more

I got the Green Goddess ($13.50) : Kale, Avocado, Corn, Pistachios, Red Chilies, Pickled Red Onions, Anchovy-Labneh Dressing. It tasted good, but the portion size was portioned well so there is a prevention of overeating. Personally, it would be tough for me to come back especially if I was not filled. The taste here is fair yet sterile with the food missing some spirit. read more

Not really worth the price tag but a decent place if you want to eat/work at the same time. The salad bowl is around 13-15 dollars or more depending on add-ons. I was disappointed to find out that all of their salads are pre-packed and all of their proteins are precooked and refrigerated. Because they are pre-packed, you can't customize either. For the price tag, I think Sweet Greens or Chopt is - much better bang for your buck! The space is open for dine in as of April 2021 with every other table blocked off. They seem to be pretty busy during lunch rush but it was pretty empty afterwards. If you want a spacious place to work, they provide wifi and have seats with outlets near by! read more

Honeybrains - Inside - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - New York, New York

Pretentious, overpriced, and nonexistent customer service. EDIT: The owner messaged me in under 12 hours apologizing and asking me to try them again, and also offered to refund my entire order (only part of which was missing). Will move to 2 stars from 1 until I get a chance to try again. At any other fast-casual build your own bowl spot, you can usually choose a grain or veggie base, 2-3 veggie sides, and a protein for $11-$14. Not here. At honeybrains you're locked in to a bowl of pure kale and sometimes one, or only two sides if you get a chicken based bowl. The sides come pre-picked with your bowl so there's no customization at all once you pick your protein. If you look at the two pictures attached, the same daily catch bowl had significantly less sweet potato (my only side) after I paid $4 extra for a add-on steak. I came here twice and my second order was a disaster. I also ordered a iced London Fog, for which they used hot earl gray tea to make (there was a teabag in my drink) so that my entire drink was melted by the time I picked up. They also forgot the extra salmon I paid for. Emailed their support and messaged them on instagram to get a refund for the missing protein (they posted multiple times in the days following my message) but no response. On the bright side, during my first trip the proteins were well cooked and the lemon dressing used for the Daily Catch bowl was pretty good. read more

First time at this location, but overall the chain is not the same as earlier years. They don't serve toast with honey. Or the other special toasts they used to serve. I used to think the food From honey brains was high quality and special enough to warrant its price point. I don't think that anymore. The food is very average. Although the honey was very good. read more

I had high hopes for this place but left wondering why I paid so much for a salad that tasted like Dawn soap. Let me tell you the vibe of this place is giving mustard dreams.

I had to think to myself, why that condiment in a beverage? It was strange but that's the only thing I liked....... read more
