I go here once or twice a week to get some work done. The food has been great every single time, and they bring the food right over to your table which is nice. Their americano is delicious, and the staff is very friendly. They also have staff just dedicated to going around and cleaning which is not always common.
The ingredients are so gross, no flavor at all. Barely any spinach in my sandwich, the cucumber salad was so soggy and old tasting. They add lettuce on the bottom of the salad bowl so it looks healthier but they are trying to be cheap.i would expect so much flavor and creativity with veggie type of restaurant! I’m never ordering again. I can make better at home. Oh yes the bread was super soggy from the pickles (barely flavored).
The food here is fantastic, I drove in from out of town and it was worth it the atmosphere inside is very chic with lots of plants and warm vibes. Outdoor dining could be improved with a heater but if you were in the sun it wasnt terrible.The coffee was pretty good and tasteful but the really good thing was the egg sandwich they offer here its like 5$ and makes a great small meal item.The staff were following all covid policies and guidelines
We ordered delivery (via DoorDash) this morning from Nu Kitchen. It was really good! On the menu was Avocado toast, Spanish scramble burrito, & Cacao cold brew smoothie. We also got 2 blueberry muffins GF and berry smoothies for the kids but they were already eating by the time I took pics. Portions were generous and reasonably priced. We’ll definitely order again.
I didnt like it here... Just not my cup of tea.,Had a coffee and a smoothie and I want really impressed by either, especially for the money.I know its hard finding good help right now, do Im gonna leave it at that.The place was nice n clean and the parking wasnt bad. The location is good
So this place was pretty busy to my surprise. Alot bigger than I expected as well though. Nice place. I went for the plant based options. There was a big line and just one person ringing up, though there was a self order kiosk that wasnt being used at first either. Anyway the kiosk works well and my order came out just the way I rfered it. Only I made a mistake. But when I alerted the waitress she took care of it right away. Extremely helpful and kind so I appreciate that. I got the Vegan chicken Dijon panini and it was pretty good. The Dijon sauce was nice and it was also a bit creamy. The overall it tasted pretty good. Could be a bit bigger but with a side its not bad. Speaking of there is the option of kettle chips or a spicy cucumber salad. Basically because I would ordinarily get chips I figured I would try something new that I hadnt seen before. It wasnt terrible but it was a small amount and it just wasnt that good I guess I should have stuck to the kettle chips okay. But Im sure it was much healthier so thats good. My friend got one of their drinks the cacao and it was very rich. So I like that they have a decent amount of vegan options however I feel like they could always expand and improve those options. But as of now they have some options and since Im new to this place I Im very excited to try the other plant-based offerings. Oh and my friend also got the Vegan egg sandwich and it was creamy and delicious. She had it on a bagel I dont know if you choose I assume so. Overall its a well-decorated place much bigger than I expected and the very minimal interaction Ive had with staff and so far has been very pleasant. Of course there is some things that it could do better. Cant wait to try more!OH yeah the soup was absolutely amazing as well!
Solid west side option for coffee or a meal. Plenty of vegetarian and vegan options, including the ability to substitute vegan meat or cheeze in menu items that are not vegetarian or vegan. Love the acai bowls, Kickin Kale salad, and the Chickpea & Parmesan bowl, just to name a few.
The vegan buddha bowl is nourishing, wholesome, filling, and delicious. The atmosphere was conducive to working, without being numbing. Service was timely, friendly, and welcoming. Ill definitely be coming back!
The atmosphere alone is an experience in itself. You can’t be in a bad mood in NU kitchen. Otherwise, the food is absolutely incredible and they cater to environmentally friendly options & lots of vegan options as well!! I recommend the sweet beach juice!
Nice environment and really so good food! I love it!
Love the healthy options*I just edited this from 4 stars to 5 stars. I order from here pretty regularly. Not only do they offer healthy and delicious options, but if something is not made right....just let them know and they will go above and beyond to fix it for you*
Pretty good food and drinks. Not really my type of place though.Got the chai and almond joy latte, both were yummy. Also ordered the egg, bacon cheese sandwich which was good on an English muffin.Blueberry and banana muffin was yummy but dense. Sweet potato muffin wasnt as good, thought it needed some more Cinnamon/sugar.
Online pickup is really quick and simple. The savory options are great when I am in need of some protein. The juices and acai bowls are sweet for my taste. And the interior space is great while the outdoor space is peaceful and quiet
They have more customers than the store is designed to handle. The walkways are tight, the waiting line blocks the entrance, and they dont seem to stop people from hanging out in the dining area on their laptops so its hard to find a place to sit at times.I hope they fix the layout so you can wait in line without being in the way.The food is pretty great, and the staff seem very nice
I was very hesitant to go inside because I thought it was gonna be gross vegan stuff. However ... I took the plunge and ordered a berry smoothie which was really good. I also got the wrap with the 3 eggs and whatever else they put in it. It was really delicious. They also have a grain free waffle with strawberries and real maple syrup which is to die for. Make sure you are specific about what you want on it though ... Because I returned for the same waffle and I got one with chocolate syrup on it which totally ruined the flavor of it. They have outdoor dining as well. Lots of college kids seem to be in there whenever I go. The decor is very nice ... Thats all I got for ya!
Excellent short rib Bahn MI sandwich
Just moved to town. Was pumped cause I love the Somerville location. But unfortunately this place is run like garbage. First two times my order was wrong. Second time they give me a gift card. 3rd time Im left waiting an hour. And they offer me another gift card. I will not be coming back.
Just had a small event catered by NU Kitchen, we were extremely pleased with the service, and the food was delicious! Highly recommended.
Always amazing! Waffle, bowl, coffee all outstanding. Keep up the good work!
I will say this, I am very impressed with the level of customer service and customer appreciation that the manager Mike showed me. I was completely unhappy with Nu Kitchen the last few times I ordered but I promise you that Mike made it up to me. He came all the way to my shop to deliver me 5 Blue Monkeys and 3 Salmon BLTs (that I didnt even order) with a sincere apology. Thank you Mike!
First visit. Beautiful space and decor. Acai bowl good and hot milky way latte delicious.
Very chill atmosphere. Staff is friendly and the red itself is beautiful and clean.Food was pretty good & it was all around a nice experience. The only thing I would suggest is be cautious if you ask for a specific request with your order. The woman who took our order had to run back to the kitchen to ensure my boyfriends order was prepared properly twice before we even paid for the food. I also asked for no onions and still got them on my sandwich . Other than that everything was great!
Ive had many memories here from dates to solo studies. The variety and vibe are pretty neat. They were slammed when I got here and they handled it as best as possible. I actually sat next to a staff meeting today. Im highly impressed by the community communication and passion from the owner in the meeting. It seems like the diverse staff were listened to and sounded invested. Even in the future temporary adjustments that are made I highly recommend sticking with or trying this place. That kind of dedication and zeal to grow their staff, customer service, and adapting in general is really refreshing. Support local and genuine businesses.
Great food and reasonably priced! I went here with my family and we had the eggnog latte, short rib sandwich, sweet potato salad, and the honey goat breakfast sandwich. All of the things we got were great. The decor could definitely use some updating; its reminiscent of a college dining hall and feels dated. However, there is plenty of seating and tables. We didnt have any trouble finding a table. The staff are friendly and young. Lots of people doing work on their laptops, so seems like a good place for doing some work! We came in just for a quick bite. Service was quick and we received our food quickly after eating. Would definitely come again. Many healthy options, including vegetarian (and possibly vegan) options! We really liked the bread they used in the sandwiches - the ciabatta was soft and not as hard as most ciabatta. Fillings were delicious!
Nice casual place located in what appears to be a former small factory. Variety of vegan, vegetarian, and meat, poultry and fish selections as well as appealing desserts. Popular with the college students in the area. If youre looking for someplace quiet, this may not be to your liking, but the place has a pleasant vibe. Plenty of parking and seating. I enjoyed the vegan tacos and the brussels sprouts.
It has a fabulous, wide-ranging, healthy, tasty menu available all day long. Counter folk are friendly and efficient but willing to offer extra help when needed. You can order online, by phone, at a kiosk, or with a person and the delicious food is ready very quickly (online ordering is especially easy and fast).
Great environment with great food. The Acai bowl wasnt too sweet, with the honey being just the right touch. The veggie burger was great. Their Blueberry Banana (VG/GF) muffin was great but their chocolate chip cookie (VG/GF) had a strong taste. Not sure what type of flour they used, but I didnt like it. Will definitely be coming back to try their other goodies.
Absolutely lovely place. Good food, multiple options between sandwiches, salads, smoothies, fresh juices, coffee, beer, . Indoor and outdoor seating, free WiFi. Very easy to located and prices are decent.. can also be a good place for casual meeting. Lots of free parking space. Loved it so much I went there twice in one day. I will visit again
The food has always been incredible, I have never had a bad meal here, and they are amazing when it comes to food restrictions. I dont eat meat and they have more than enough food for me, and its not half fast like most restaurants. the coffee is also amazing, I cant rave about this place enough. excellent
I love love love there acia bowl! My boyfriend & I get these for a breakfast or a snack during the day or even a snack for the night time before bed! Be mindful that in the morning once thet open it will be busy crazy with lots of people waiting in line. Your best bet is to order online, self Kiosk, or calling ahead. Enjoy the atmosphere and how the inside is designed.
The food was super good and the people were so nice! The menu is HUGE so I definitely will have to go back again.
The food is great and so is the espresso drinks. I LOVE the nut latte!
One of my favorite spots in Worcester to grab vegetarian/vegan food. Ive tried basically everything on the menu, and havent found something I didnt enjoy. The atmosphere is excellent, and the service is friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend giving this place a shot if youre vegetarian/vegan!
NU Kitchen was awesome! Food was fresh and very good. I had their homemade chicken noodle soup. It was excellent! Staff was super nice and efficient. Popular with the college crowd, but dont hesitate to go if you have snow on the roof! 😄
Cute eatery. Best tasting acai bowls I have ever had!!!!
Great place to study! Comfortable seating, no struggle for parking, great food, staff, and atmosphere! Also opens 8AM-8PM everyday, which seems to be very hard to find these days as many open around 9/10AM & many times those other cafes end up being closed even though they’re marked open on their website🙃 Nu is a 25min drive from me, but even with the music it seems to be the best place for me to stay focused, get my studying done and stay productive! It’s nice when I see many others also studying and etc, makes for a great study space so the drive to Nu is always worth it!
Im usually here for the smoothies but the food is also delicious. This place is a weekend stop every week to start our day. The whole family grabs smoothies!
Great service. I got help with my choices of drink and food. Never been here before until today. Food taste excellent and drink as well.
Never received my order on the 25th, and still hasn’t gotten my refund. This is beyond disappointing.
Good food and coffee and really friendly service ☺️
Has been my favorite place in Worcester for 3 years now. Some of the food sacrifices flavor for health but once you try enough things there is something for everyone
The first time I walked in here I knew I was in a totally different world, even during covid - the staff was so friendly, food delicious, atmosphere inside was lovely to be around. The energy in this place just felt right. The Acai bowl was exactly what I needed and a coffee on top of that - chefs kiss. Happily a returning customer to this and their Somerville location!! Highly recommend!!
Eating for years... consistent food and service
Why did you guys change how you make certain things? New management? Its way worse and what I ordered doesnt even contain everything listed on the menu.
Not a bad little place. I wouldnt jump up and down about it but I also wouldnt avoid it. Its a solid double. Plenty of healthy choices. They should expand the beer selection
I love their Muscle Machine smoothie, and their Maui acai bowl!
Me and girlfriend eat here quite often and their food is great. All employees are friendly, if you need to substitute something cause you are dieting a specific diet then theyll make adjustments to your meal no hassle. If you are trying to eat healthier and still want a place to eat out, or dont have time to cook for yourself then Nu Kitchen is a great choice, if youre vegan or vegetarian then this is definitely the place for you. I reccomend trying their avocado nuggets! Below picture is what I order, chorizo brussel scramble, which I changed out almost everything cause Im picky diet wise, but chorizo dish itself unchanged is great!
This cafe is great. They have beautiful interior design with a warm cozy feel. They offer delicious meals from acai and rice bowls to bahn mi. The majority of their offering can be ordered vegetarian or completely vegan.
We love this place and we stop anytime our travel takes us out this way. Coffee or protein shakes are always a staple but my wife loves the salads...
Food is the only reason I will give a one star. Cashier tries to be nice but you get mocked when you try to make a request for the AC to be turned down when it’s turned on high in 30 degree weather. Sorry I am not made of ice like you- also when in the first place you had to move there because they asked you to, since we were taking “too much space” add to that the nasty stares when I moved from the ice table just wow. Loved coming here before but today is my last time. I never gave a nasty review but there is always time for firsts.
The food is absolutely delicious! And they have an incredible option of allergen friendly and gluten free options.I got a vegan egg sandwich with vegan cheese on gluten free bread, and a dairy free smoothie,which isnt an easy thing to find at many restaurants. Sooooooo goooooooood!
They make excellent lattes, and their food is fresh. The staff are super friendly and welcoming; I feel great every time I walk in there!
They have amazing açai bowls! 😍
Went here for the first time for a meeting. Even though it was busy the flow seemed to move pretty good. There is a lot going on here. Only downside to my visit was the condition of the bathroom (mens). Condition of the restroom was not much better than a highway gas station. With the amount of traffic there, this should be a priority.
Good food and drinks...great place for lunch, but a little pricey.
I personally love the southwest salad with chicken. We are a mixed household of vegetarians and non-vegetarians, and there are plenty of menu items available to suit all our tastes. There are even vegan and gluten-free options available. Breakfast options are also ample and equally delicious.
I frequent this place often and always loved their food and smoothies -- fresh & delicious sandwiches. however, the past 4 times Ive ordered the health nut smoothies, each sip comes with big chunks and chunks of rotten looking bananas (to the point you start to think youre sipping mucus), maybe its best to use overripe bananas but i think it just needs to be blended better, as well as the chia seeds.
Great food, excellent service.. can order ahead for prompt pickup or use grub hub! Healthy and tasty!
Great bowls and fresh juice.
Friendly knowledgeable staff. Fantastic healthy choices for vegan, plant based, and carnivores and reasonable prices. There dining area and restrooms were clean.
Go-to spot for any smoothie in Worcester, wide selection of their menu and a great atmosphere. I run a lot of meetings there and the staff is always very accommodating
Love this place. I go here for the Harvest Bowl, its my fave! Love that you guys have Gf & Vegan options as it is not easy to find in most places. I can bring friends and family here too who may not want to eat vegan, so its a win for both of us! Also, thanks for offering the Just Egg, I had the sandwich the other day and it was good! Keep the tasty vegan options coming. I recommend this place to so many!
So good lol
A weirdly wide ranging menu. Most of it healthy.
Best food Ive ever had, biggest price Ive ever paid for it. a Nice treat ;)
This place by far is one of my favorite places to go and hang out! They have AMAZING food and smoothies that are all super healthy, and such a great atmosphere. I love to grab some food and chill for a bit, drawing or working on stuff. Many of the booths have outlets at them so you can charge your phones or laptops as well! The staff is always friendly and super welcoming as well! 10/10!
Funky fresh food. Great service.
A nice calming place to go!!
Cute Cafe with good healthy food options and one of the few places around to sit in and have a quick bite and meeting.
Nice place that actually has a decent amount of seating and a nice atmosphere. This was my first time here and I enjoyed the food and the coffee. I had a panini and an açaí bowl but my friend said the smoothies are very good as well. It’s a nice place to come for lunch or to get some work done. The atmosphere is open and it has high ceilings with good lighting. I would eat here again
I love this place so much! I have never been disappointed by their food. Service is fast and very welcoming. One time they messed up part of the order, they were very apologetic, fixed it, and even took it off the bill. I will definitely be going back often.
Great staff! Awesome atmosphere! 5 star on everything but higher prices. (Yes, I realize its all relative, so to some it might not be expensive. For myself, $10 for a shake is high, for example 😁.)Having said that and made my way through the entire menu, everything is fantastic! You are getting what you pay for :)Only negative is their posted open hours are until 10pm, but they close at 9pm currently as of this writing. I was told they would be open until 10pm as the weather turned nicer.
The drinks are a little over prices but it is totally worth all the money.... very delicious drink and smoothies. If you looking for a healthy alternative for a refreshment, go here!
Owen is the BEST bread maker!! So kind and helpful and motivated. A genius behind the oven I’d say!! Go Owen! :)
Great menu and environment
Epic! Great food. Awesome service! So many vegan and not vegan options! Cant wait to come back and visit again! Also, they use UV light in the HVAC system to clean the air. So definitely fighting COVID-19!
Well it’s probably disgusting how much I order From here! :) not every night through out this pandemic I felt Like cooking. NU Kitchen has been my saving grace. Good food and great customer service
