Vegan-Friendly Dining - With Transparency
While we are not an exclusively vegan restaurant, our menu is designed so that most items can easily be made vegan. Just choose one of our plant-based proteins for any of our healthy bowls — like Hodo Foods organic tofu or slow-roasted legumes — and your Humbowl will be 100% vegan.

Gluten-Free Options at Humbowl
We didn’t set out to be a gluten-free restaurant, but most of our menu naturally was, and we made a few simple changes (like swapping out soy sauce) to make the whole thing 100% gluten-free. We don’t use any wheat, barley, rye, or gluten-containing ingredients in any of our recipes. That means all of our healthy bowls are made without gluten!

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”, “healthy bowls”, “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!
