We were visiting Laguna Beach and so fortunately discovered Active Culture restaurant on our first day. We then went the next two days too. The employees were all super nice and very accommodating and helpful. Some of the delicious food we had were the vegan chili, avocado toast, hummus wrap, the quinoa lentil bowl and the Thalia bowl. I brought leftovers home to LA and my son wants to know where the closest Active Culture is to us, he loved the meal. Will definitely go back next...

I first came here when I was 17 and I’m now 25. The Wholesome Bowl and the sauce is something I recreate as I no longer live in Orange County. I try to make my way to Laguna, and Active Culture every time I visit California again.

An absolute must for visiting Laguna, and if you’re a local, why haven’t you been here yet?

Perfect frozen yogurt, a great PCH view, and healthy food.

It was a lovely place with a beautiful view, and a high-quality guilt-free menu, I got to try almost all of their signature dishes.
The highlights were the Wholesome Bowl, and the coconut smoothie 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻.

Leo, the cashier, was helpful and patient, and helped us a lot in deciding what to order.
We also tried different açaí bowls, just like the ones shown in their videos.
