Someone said it was everything wrong w vegan food... let's process that together: menu is excellent. Plenty of vegan bowls, avo toast, and smoothies. But we need to talk abt prices...$46 w tip for 1 person breakfast?! Thats avo toast, a drip coffee, and a bowl.
Atmosphere is new age terraformed yoga mat with a layer of yoga pants wrapped around it. Plenty of soaps, candles, books, chocolate for sale. Plus plants, cheer up slogans, and a nest you can sit in though it looks like a leather couch. Not to fear, pillows abound. But keep your coat on it's chilly in here.
Music is loud, slow, rumbly, foggy, druggy, drizzly "hip hop jazz" beats. Newest way for white ppl to safely ingest pre-strained black culture.
Location is plopped in some kind of bougie af shopping center/over 55 community. So this is where boomer retirement dollars are flowing down into... table features a pop up ad for $83/day gut cleanse treatments...
On the service front, the attendants were very friendly and it's carry-from-counter, buss-your-own. My standard coffee seems to be taking _much_ longer than the food.
Honestly I wouldnt be cranky about it if it costed half the price. This is like NYC prices for what should be suburban fare. Im on a roadtrip so I kinda got to go the flow, but Poughkeepsie, man, yall gotta get some scrappier, vegan fare going! See Phoenix, Portland...
Something abt this place makes ppl want to be hyper polite. When the atrendant asked a man if he'd like a tray he said, "That would be excellent. I appreciate it, "as if compensating for draining off decades of middle class wages.
This place makes me think the debate about veganism as health/environment vs animal welfare should be expanded to include class warfare.
The nourish bowl is good tho it needed the tahini to be really good.
Avo toast is great. Good bread and tomatoes... not very spicy, but great bread. Coffee: no soy milk? Oat milk at least.

Absolutely wonderful all around! I have been taking my nieces here for years! The ambiance and the menu (the bowls are to die for), make for a great place to enjoy a healthy meal or smoothie while chatting away the morning. We are very thankful for their kindness, definitely a MUST stop by!
Our quinoa bowls ($17 each) were delicious. Fun place for lunch

The young woman working the counter when I went for breakfast yesterday morning went out of her way to be cold and rude to me, and the avocado toast she made was bland and very stingy on every ingredient. No reason to ever come back to this lame place again.

I am a wholesom ingredients food enthusiast!! This place checks every box. Chakra Bowl is the only place I will order food in the all of Eastdale. Why? Whole food, fresh clean ingredients! Dressing with olive oil, not seed oil. Healthy and creative dishes. Well thought out. That's first and foremost. Hip clean (and cozy, bohemian style) establishment, hence its name. Service staff, are sweet and kind.

All the girls were smiley & sweet. I really enjoyed the skin glow soup, delicious!
Pricy, with delcious vegan options. Friendly warm staff too. ❤️ Popped in for lunch as a first timer and got their vegan hot wrap with red quinoa, sweet potatoes, etc., so great!! With a bottle of green juice and three vegan cookies, this one-person lunch came to a shocking-to-me $58. 😬 Would get the wrap again for sure, and wash it down next time with my own water bottle.

Been going here since they opened. Went today and found a hair in my smoothie bowl. I politely talked to one of the staff and she told me that since the bowl was half eaten that she could only remake a half of a bowl. She continued to say it’s none of their hair. I told her I wouldn’t be back and other staff member shrugged and said “oh well” Their customer service has gone down hill and prices have also substantially increased.

I ordered online and picked up in person, we got a salad, elixr, smoothie, and iced chai. The staff was friendly when I went in to pick up my order and the food and drinks were great!
