About Us

Active Culture is a lively, counter service café founded on the belief that healthy food can taste amazing! We use whole grains, local organic eggs, fresh fruits and vegetables, and unique sauces or dressings that are made from scratch, in-house daily. Our fresh spin on a vegetable forward menu is unlike anything out there often satisfying those non-believers. We have put extensive thought and care into our menu items to create unique delicious foods that will fuel your body and soul.

If you are vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, soy-free, raw, cleansing or simply looking for great tasting food that is not over processed or filled with chemicals, dyes or hydrogenated oils then you have come to the right place!

Meet our Mediterranean Chicken Salad

A base of romaine lettuce and organic mixed greens, heaped with crispy veggies, garbanzo beans, and our new organic chicken thighs, complemented by kalamata olives, crumbled goat cheese, house-made garlic croutons, and a sprinkle of parsley and served with our house-made lemon vinaigrette. Vibrant in color and flavor!
