    Golden Milk Hot
    Muriel D.

    I love Life Alive but lately I've been disappointed by the quality of service in the evening. Twice this week, I have ordered dinner to go and twice this week I have been left waiting for my order. I want to preface this by saying that the staff are all extremely kind and were quick to remedy the inconvenience. However, the manager's behavior when I went to pick up my latest order was nothing short of careless. I ordered a chili garlic mushroom bibimbap and a strawberry and cream power chia for pickup. I placed the order at 8:22pm and was quoted a ETA of 8:42. When I arrives around 8:40, the food was not only not ready, they forgot about my order entirely. Again, the staff were very on top of it and apologized before starting to make my order. I was appreciative of the two young ladies who communicated with me as they made the order and offered to compensate me. The manager however was not as gracious. After getting my grain bowl I waited around for another few minutes before inquiring about my strawberry & cream power chia. The manager told me they no longer had it, gave me a random strawberry drink and said the price was the same so it was fine. He did not offer to refund me for what I actually ordered and his attitude felt unwarranted. Moreso, amidst this entire ordeal he was mostly absent and the two younger girls had to go get him repeatedly to ask what they should do. When he did come around he was distracted on a facetime call. Things happen and items run out but after a long day, I did not appreciate how this was handled.

    Shakshuska pita...

    Food was amazing... I ordered the shakshuska pita and the iced Mocha latte... everything was delicious...

    PBJ açaí bowl

    They offer a great 20% discount if you are a down under yoga member which is super awesome. The PBJ açaí bowl has me locked in even in the winter months, and I love that they don't skimp on the peanut butter. The inside is the best study environment and is just so beautiful bright and aesthetic

    Butternut Spice Latte, Autumn Falafel Bowl

    Food: WOW. The Autumn Falafel and butternut spice latte was DELICIOUS! No complaints here, I finished everything, feeling super content, knowing I will be satisfied for the rest of the day. :) Service: Food was fast, the workers were able to help me on which menu items were the most popular but tbh they could've smiled a little more haha, it was a beautiful day at the restaurant. Ambiance: I love this location. Davis Square is such a fun area, and the restaurant has tons of natural light, they maintain it well.

    Words cannot describe how happy I was to find out that Life Alive has finally expanded to Davis Square (in fact, on its website...they have sooo many locations now.when they only used to be in Central Square / Copley and another place back 4-5 years ago!). I used to frequent Life Alive frequently for a variety of their acai bowls in the morning when I was working in Boston...and certainly do miss having such a great, healthy start from Life Alive every work day! The shop looked very modern and clean. I liked that they did open early! So, guess what I did my first morning I was back in Boston?!?! I walked over from my place to have a proper healthy breakfast there! The food was not only very satisfying, clean and healthy...they also looked good and colorful...totally instagrammable! I also liked that they also had free internet in the cafe as well (although..it wasn't conducive to me because I had to be on a call and there were definitely background noises of people and music playing in the shop!). Overall, I love that Life Alive is finally in Davis Square! I will definitely stop by Life Alive again the next time I find myself back in Boston!

    I like going to this cafe when working from home. It's on the expensive side, but the atmosphere makes up for it. You can study or work and not buy anything as well. Good for summer days in which your AC is broken. Food is generally healthy too.

    At the register, I placed an order, paid for it, and received the food with zero words and no eye contact from the cashier.

    BerryLine is unfortunately one of my favorite dessert places and they hate to see me coming…read more This was a frequent sweet treat spot between for me and my college friends. However, social media has really blown this place up in the last few years! My order is really the same every time, just a matter if I want to get a micro or a small. It is always the original tart flavor, with mochi (either the original flavor or the special flavor they have that week), cheesecake bites, and fruit - usually strawberry and/or mango. It hits every single time. Well sometimes the fruit may have a bit of frostbite, the froyo is still the star of the show. Service is quick and efficient, I mean with those lines they really have to. However, when it is your turn, the staff to take their time to let you sample the different flavors, which I really appreciate. Sometimes they have seasonal flavors like lychee or nutella which I love to sample at times - sometimes I even get an original tart and lychee swirl.

We went during an off-time and didn't have to wait, but by the time we left 30 minutes later, there was a line out the door--definitely a popular spot! I got the original froyo topped with their homemade mochi, and it was really good--not too sweet or heavy. Service was quick and friendly, and there was plenty of outdoor seating, which was nice for sitting and enjoying our treat before heading to our next stop. I'd definitely come back to try more flavors, but I'll definitely stick to going during a non-peak time!
