Life Alive Organic Cafe Harvard Square

Life Alive is a great place for healthy satisfying food in a calm atmosphere a short walk from Harvard Yard. The gluten free and vegan options are excellent. Portions are good. Service is friendly and most importantly seating is well-spaced and easy to find. A much better option that Tatte - healthier and without the smell of bacon fat

These numbskulls have symbols for Gluten Free, Vegan, and God knows what else but they DO NOT SHOW HOT/SPICY!!! From pancreatic cancer I have certain extreme food allergies and I was suck three entire days because the menu did not specify hot red pepper (capsaicin). When I stopped by a couple of days later, the assistant manager asked for my name and contact info...but I NEVER HEARD BACK. I've known Life Alive since they opened in Central Square (15? years ago) and despite the poor ventilation there, the food was great and the people friendly. This must be YET ANOTHER FAILURE of the American "live to grow" corporate system. SHAME!!
