Decent place for healthy-ish food. Taste is good. However use of seed oils(especially peanut oil) is unacceptable when they market themselves as health food store. I know healthier oils like olive, avocado, coconut are more expensive, but customers are paying high prices and deserve good ingredients. Otherwise there wouldn't be much difference between them and something like Chipotle, other than the healthy marketing.Service, ambience was exceptional, no complaints there. I would have given lower rating if not for this.I am giving 4/5 only because they market as health food store and would upgrade to 5/5 if they use better oils.EDIT: i asked in store after comment below and they said they used sunflower oil. Would be nice to have details of oils on website.

Smoothie was mediocre. Friend watch his wrap die in the panini press as the employees wandered around aimlessly. Are the people here volunteers?

Unfortunately had I their soup and it was terrible. I have had it many times in the past and I loved it. It was watered down yesterday, chicken was in huge pieces ( not tasty) and only half a bowl. They told me I had to.pay extra for rice...this was a first. I never paid for rice in the past. What is going on?

Had their coconut and lemon grass soup with chicken ? Half of the amount had last time I was there. Asked for rice because last time came with rice and was told twice that last time I didn't get rice ? Why would you tell the customer (2 times) you didn't have it last time when you the server were not here. Broth wasn't even warm and chicken tasteless and why were 2 grape tomatoes in the soup. Because last time the soup ? was right temperature and chicken ? was tasty and the rice was perfect in the soup ? Never again and at$28 for 2 bowls of soup??

I love their fresh juices as well as their bowls. They use super healthy and fresh ingredients.I ordered the green juice and added some fresh orange juice on top; it was super delicious. The ginger shot was really fiery, and the ABC juice was tasty and had the most calories for sure ?.It’s inside the food court located in Lonsdale Quay. I’ll definitely go back again.

Delicious smoothies! And so pretty! The only thing is that they were quite expensive (ours were $8 and $9) but the taste was great! Didn't try the food but it looked fresh.

Delicious healthy food. My favs Green Curry bowl, Nick’s wrap and Greena colada smoothie. Greena Colada is really refreshing. ???? You can build your own wrap and bowl. ??

New Healthy, Plant-Based Grab & Go in Downtown Vancouver @wela.eatwell is definitely a place to stop by if you're looking for some delicious and fresh takeaway! I loved the huge menu and various options they have and the design of the store is beautiful in itself I highly recommend the two bowls highlighted in my caption! The hummus is made daily in store, and the veggies look and taste so fresh The curry is very flavorful and I loved the array of flavors within the bowls

I got the papa monkey smoothie and I was blown away, it is such a well made smoothie and the customer service has been amazing every single time I go, I would highly recommend WELAAlso as a side not for anyone who is sceptical of the reusables take out container system it's super easy and especially if youre by LONSDALE QUAY often you can just drop them off in the bin outside of shipyards coffee.This is my second time using reusables and they're a great efficient and insulated way to bring hot and cold food around with you comfortably.Vegetarian options: 100% just don't get any meat in your food and all the meat is separated into its own binsDietary restrictions: Everything on their menu is 100% customizable and is made fresh to order daily it seemsKid-friendliness: They have an entire section of their menu that doesn't have protein powder and all the smoothies on the menu would be something any kid would love even picky eatersWheelchair accessibility: It's on the bottom floor of the LONSDALE QUAY building right beside the food court ramp and all of Lonsdale quay is wheelchair accessible aswell

If you're looking for a delicious and healthy vegan meal, look no further than Wela Healthbar. Their Roasted Cauliflower Curry is the perfect comfort food on a cold winter day. The spices are perfectly balanced, and the cauliflower is cooked to perfection. I can't recommend this dish enough!Vegetarian options: Great vegan choice
Amazing flavors! Yes flavors, like a bouquet of flavors. Must try!
