Forage Kitchen

If you are looking for a healthy, casual spot (while also supporting local in a big way), here it is! I think you could call this your go-to, affordable and healthy/high protein spot. One of those places you feel good about eating at:) This started in Madison and has been expanding. We came in on a Sunday afternoon … lots of seating available, steady stream of people coming in, both picking up to go and ordering in. There are a few options - table seating, counter and high top seating or a cute little outdoor garden area. You order at the counter and they make it in front of you. Everything from scratch and reasonable prices. The best part is, it’s as delicious as it is healthy. Really fresh, creative options. They are willing to customize and there are a lot of gluten free and vegan options. The black rice base is wonderful. I ordered the chicken bacon Caesar wrap and could only eat half - it was so packed full! I saved the other half for my next day lunch. My husband got the Fiesta Bowl and added hot honey chicken - I should have taken an after picture, because he left absolutely nothing!! Street parking is easy, the place is super open, filled with light and easy seating. This would be a great place for even meeting friends or for a casual meeting space - I noticed they also offer catering so included that in photos. This is definitely for your “healthy, must come often” list!

Avoid if you are celiac / actually need something gluten free. server rolled his eyes after my wife asked him to change gloves since previous order he was handling wheat containing food. She trusted it because he did change gloves however she still got sick.
