The Humbowl App!

Our ordering app is ready! iOS and Android. Download now and get 20% off your first order! This is built on the ChowNow platform.

Unfortunately because integrations aren’t perfect, our eGift Cards and Loyalty program do not work through our app, only when ordering through our regular ordering page.

Finally a 3rd party app that supports small business!

Check us out on Bites! Or order from their page here. As many of you know most third parties, like Doordash, UberEats, Grubhub, charge us huge commissions that make it very difficult for us to stay successful, and our only option is to charge premiums on these sites. Bites has a great model where there is a $10 delivery fee, split between customer and restaurant, and they charge us $1 per order. This is a super fair model. If you are going to order from a third party we strongly suggest Bites. They are new to the area, so check back frequently for more restaurants signing on!

What Makes Humbowl a Healthy Fast Food Alternative?

Healthy is such a complicated term. What’s healthy for one may not be healthy for another. What’s healthy for you now, may not be healthy for you tomorrow (it probably will, this just helps get the point across).

We focus on whole foods and getting the right combinations of food onto your plate. Generally speaking a Humbowl is a whole grain, some veggies, a lean protein, and sauce. It’s hard to generalize healthy eating, but if there a way to do it, this is it. We get the food out pretty quickly. We cook to order, but unless you come in the middle of the lunch or dinner rush we can get most of our dishes out in about six minutes. In a convenient counter-service setting you can be in and out with your delicous, healthy meal almost as fast as traditional fast food. Only if we had a drive-thru…

Catering, Office Lunches, Group orders? We got you covered!

No matter the occasion we can help. Check out our catering page for more info.

Vegan- Options at Humbowl

We are not exclusively vegan, and do have animal product in our menu. Our menu is designed in a way that the vast majority of our menu can be vegan. Any of our Humbowls with our Legumes or Hodo Foods organic tofu protein choice will be vegan. The only non-vegan product in our menu are the eggs, the chicken (inc. chicken sausage), and the shrimp. We don’t have any dairy or other animal product. We like to think we offer healthy options for all omnivores and are a great option for vegans who want to go out to eat with their non-vegan friends.

Gluten-Free Options at Humbowl

Our menu is completely gluten-free. This kind of happened by accident. We didn’t set out to become a gluten free restaurant, but we figured out pretty early in that most of our food was gluten free anyway, and really the only gluten in the menu was in some soy sauce in one of our sauces. We just changed the sauce a bit and boom, totally gluten free menu.

Interested in some healthy eating education?

Check out our Humbowl Thoughts! we have mini-lessons designed to teach you a little bit about sustainable and healthier eating practices. That’s also where you can find info about our ingredients and vendors and some nutritional information.

Are you planning on leaving us a review?

If you love us and are going to review us on Yelp or Google, would you please consider using certain keywords that would really help others find us? The keywords have to naturally flow into your review and can’t just be shoved in there. These include “healthy”, “gluten free”, “vegan options”, “group orders”, “catering”, “office lunches”.

A great example would be, “We went to Humbowl for lunch and loved all their healthy options. They had so many gluten free and vegan options too! I’m going to suggest to my work that we order in some Humbowl for our next office lunch, their food seems like it would be great for group orders and catering.”

Using this kind of phrasing will help us show up higher on search results for Google and Yelp, and someone searching for “healthy vegan food” will have an easier time finding us. Thank you so much and we hope you love our food!
