I came by after class last week with a couple of friends from England, who came to visit me at school. Thrive was recommended by a few of my schoolmates because of the fresh vegan options, so I decided to take them there.
Though it seems like a cool local hangout, I wasn't taken aback by it. The restaurant looks more like a corporate cafeteria, than a cozy cafe.
It felt just as impersonal as the vegan chain restaurant, Fresh.
I ordered the detox juice, because nothing really appealed to me on the menu.
My friends ordered a sandwich, a salad bowl, and 2 large fresh squeezed juices which cost them $50.
We sat at one of the booths, which was still dirty from the previous customers and surrounded by their dead and very sad window plants.
Though I'm pro-local food, this place was a cash grab and I will not be returning in the future.
