Just BE Kitchen

Really cute cafe with an uncommonly large menu. Plenty of clearly labeled options for many different diets, including vegans, gluten free, non dairy, refined sugar free, legume free, etc. My delicious toast order was ready in under 5 minutes!

Just Be Kitchen is awesome! I was skeptical of how the food would taste as it’s not easy to do gluten, dairy, soy, seed oil, corn FREE but the food was amazing. So good my husband and I ate there 3 meals straight during our race weekend in Boulder. From enchanted salad to crave burger to breakfast burrito, we were extremely impressed. Mike (I think the owner) was friendly, helpful and passionate about how clean the food is. Highly recommend this place for anyone who cares about high quality and truly healthy, delicious food.

Just Be is one of my Go-Tos when I'm in the Denver and Boulder areas. The breakfast burrito is SO GOOD, I've never had such a wonderful GF tortilla. It's a bit expensive for the quantity of food and I'd like to see more consistency for quantity per item ordered; the shepherd's pie is much smaller and less substantial than the burrito. The drinks are also very pricey. Don't get me wrong, I love a good turmeric latte with good, clean, ingredients, but I struggle with the $9 price tag. I'll keep coming here! 1000%. I recommend you do, too. This is an awesome dedicated GF / Celiac safe restaurant.

I wish I could give a 5+ rating! It is so great to have a place that cares about inflammatory foods closer to home (and I don't have to cook from scratch). I have been on the autoimmune protocol diet for over 8 months now (am in the reintro phase) and it's great to see food options on menus that are dairy free and egg free. And having confidence in the ingredients list or crosscontaminatio n. The dishes we had (Passion vegetable curry chicken and Rot buffalo chicken wrap) were sized for more than we could eat and packed our leftovers to go. The curry seemed spicier than I expected, but I have not had a lot of spices in the last months, so it's possible it's just my reaction. The desserts look just like the traditional recipes. Yes, some dishes may not look or taste like the originals, but this is food for those that actually need it free of allergens. So I think the reviews about consistency and taste don't have a place here - have you tried making these at home? Prices were decent for Boulder and we also purchased a brownie mix bag to make at home (mine will be an egg free version). Staff was attentive, friendly and served us some brownie bites while we were pondering our choices. Will definetly come back.

I will say I was a little skeptical at first, expecting the usual dry, flavorless, and gritty texture that comes with the ultra “clean and healthy” menu. However, the food not only surpassed my expectations but I can confidently say I will be coming back to try just about everything they have to offer! We had the burger, chicken wrap, salad, and brownie, and all of it was fantastic! To top it off the staff and manager were very friendly, personable and made our experience memorable! If you go here I highly recommend anything with the dairy free ranch, I’d buy a bottle of the stuff if I could, and treat yourself to a brownie, 100% worth it!

Wow!!! I had heard about Just Be Kitchen but my expectations were wildly surpassed once I actually took my first bite. I’m hooked! (Look out for the potato and leek soup! It’s unbelievable) Mike and his team are outstanding and truly go above and beyond for this community and you can literally taste all of the passion that goes into their dishes. I love to see what new special they have put together. I would literally eat here every day and never get tired. OBSESSED!

I ordered the chicken dumpling soup to go. It was not long before closing. The dumplings seem possibly undercooked and are unexpectedly like little dry bricks in the soup, and the chicken (breast) is sorta dry, and would like more whole chicken action with some dark meat to be incorporated. The side of roasted veggies I got on the side is good but has a lot of pepper, a bit too much for my taste. I have heard such great things about this place and am trying to get off inflammatory foods and sometimes work too much to make my own meals. I cannot say that I am that excited to try anything else on the menu, because this was unfortunately not very enjoyable, and I guess I had better expectations. I don’t want to give a horrible review because of the effort to move away from typical low vibrational ingredients, and it was the end of the day, so perhaps it was rushed. However, IMHO dumplings in soup should not be little dry squares. I am going to try to put the rest on the stove tomorrow and try to get the dumplings to soften. Or are they meant to be hard and dry? I am curious what dishes are highly recommended by the staff, so I can give it another try in the future.

Can someone open one of these in Fort Collins, please?? As a person with abundant food allergies (corn, wheat, rice, tomato, avocado), I felt completely safe and, dare I say, *normal* eating here. I ate a burrito wrapping in a tortilla like any other average human. It was delicious! Very impressed with the almond flour tortilla?! I was almost anxious bc I'm used to asking so many questions, making substitutions, being misunderstood, explaining the subversive ways of corn, etc. at restaurants and my experience at Just BE was totally refreshing and simple. Sean/Shawn was the perfect host, as well, very relatable, friendly, and incredibly talented guy to be managing the restaurant by himself. I can't wait to go back!

We had an awesome experience at Just BE Kitchen Boulder! My son has GF, NF & DF severe allergies and Mike (the manager) went above and beyond to welcome us, help him order a full meal plus a delicious brownie and make us feel safe and at home! He even visited with us a bit and changed the playlist to my son's favorites! The food was delicious and we look forward to returning! Thank you Mike

this place is so good. I don't understand why it doesn't have more ratings. I've been there twice now and the food is so amazing and clean. It taste amazing , the ambience is lovely, and the food is some of the best I've had in Boulder. I like to eat clean, healthy food that tastes fantastic. You would think that's not hard to come by, but it is. especially for a price. This place is excellent. try it

I really hate that I didn't like this place, honestly, because normally I'm all for supporting gluten free businesses as someone with celiac. But the food here was just... not good. Maybe it was just too many healthy ingredients to taste normal, maybe it wasn't seasoned well, or maybe there were weird unidentifiable things in the food not mentioned in the menu description, but I left having eaten only a few bites. I ordered the DDD special which was to come with chili and soup and a tortilla. The meat of the chili was so ground up it tasted like anything but meat, it was covered in a full layer of green onions, and the flavor was very citrusy with nothing else to balance it out. The soap had identifiable lumps of something that definitely didn't taste like chicken and just wasn't good. I finished the tortilla and had a couple bites of both sides. The tortilla itself was fine, but not great, and I don't think it would've tasted good if it hadn't been warmed up. I really appreciate that they cater to dietary needs, but I won't be back.

We were very happy to find this place. Very thankful for all the gluten free food available. The owner was super friendly and helpful and ordering at the counter was very easy with the tablet. They do bring the food to you and the place is quite casual and cozy. We almost made it back for a second trip but didn't have time during our trip, maybe next time.

I paid $11 for small slice of avocado toast. I expected the bread to be dense because it's gluten free, but I didn't expect it to be SO SOGGY. It was wet all the way through, like instead of toasting it they soaked it in water for 15 minutes. I tried to eat it, but it was gummy and honestly so disgusting. I wish I could have asked for a refund, but I was running late. I'm sure some of their food is delicious, but avoid the avocado toast. To the owners of JustBe: What the heck?? Also as someone else said, it's ridiculous to ask for tips when you're not even interacting with a human cashier. The computer ordering setup gives a cold and unfriendly vibe.

Yummy, yummy, yummy! We are so impressed with these massive gluten-free, good-for-you ingredients, cinnamon rolls. As if that were not enough, we were equally impressed with the gal working behind the counter this morning (6/22/25 ~11:30). I wish I had gotten her name... she was so kind, easy to talk to, and provided fantastic customer service. Thanks, Just Be! See ya soon.

Really yummy! I got the burger and even though it looked kinda intimidating, it tasted good! Cauliflower was sooo delicious. Service was good the lady was very nice and polite, it is self service for ordering. Ambiance is nice and very chill. The menu has all kind of options so good for people with allergies!

Fantastic. As someone with celiac it's amazing to find restaurants like this that are serving quality and healthy GF food. I can't remember the last time I had a tortilla so close the "real" thing. 10/10. Highly recommend.

I had friend come to visit who was gluten free and dairy free and we scored the jackpot here. The food was SO good. The staff was attentive and I know I'll be back

Good clean vegan options as well as food for my boyfriend healthy inviting atmosphere with incredible music So glad we found you guys! Would have given it 5 stars but the service leaves a lot to be desired

I'm torn between 3 and 4 stars here. I visited for takeout while I was on a very restricted diet due to health issues. I ordered the vegan quesadilla and the cheese was just ... weird. It had a funky flavor to it I couldn't pinpoint, but I am not a vegan cheese connoisseur, so maybe it's an acquired taste. It came with vegan ranch to dip it in and this also tasted funky. The roasted veggies were amazing and the vegan cookie was decent - not very sweet, but still satisfying. My pickup experience was unremarkable- I didn't see anyone in the kitchen or restaurant area, but it was close to closing time. I think the food here is a necessary niche. I don't know that I'll be back, though.

We enjoyed our lunch here so much. We are gluten and dairy free and try to avoid as much refunded sugar as possible. It was so nice not to have to special order anything and have a choice from the whole menu. Food was incredible and service was friendly and fun. And OMG the brownie. We will be back. Thank you for opening this place!

Legit. It's one of the best restaurants in town and is the healthiest. I've tried almost everything here. We use to drive to Denver to eat at sister store, so happy it's here. So far it's undiscovered in Boulder.

Dined here once, and got the Riot chicken bowl. It was awful. The chicken was odd -- flattened/compressed, strange texture and poor taste. I left much of the food in the bowl, didn't find it edible. A far cry from the restaurant that inhabited that space before (fresh thymes)

I found this place on the Seed Oil Scout app. I'm perplexed at why the overall review score isn't a 5 or super close to it. Finding a place that does not use ANY bad fats or oils is a serious challenge. Not only are their oils on the level, but they take care with their sourcing otherwise. This takes a TON of heart and dedication. This is rare, real food. What I had was nourishing, satiating and delicious. Plus I was so very warmly welcomed by Wesley. He was very helpful. The vibe was nice as well. I wish there were more places like this who cared more about your health than the bottom line. Avoid canola, soy and vegetable oil like the plague. It's in the vast majority of our food today. Check your salad dressings especially! Even at places that market themselves as health conscious. They often still use an oil blend like diluting olive oil with sunflower oil. I promise these will not do your body well. Our bodies evolve slowly. Think hunter gatherer...try to go make a tablespoon of oil from a seed. It's just doesn't make sense. Focus on whole fats and when you eat out support people like whomever owns this place and really go the extra mile for your pleasure and health.

Everything that we tried was excellent. The tortillas are delicious and dumpling soup is amazing. We enjoyed this restaurant and will definitely be back!

I had the breakfast quesadilla. It came exactly as I ordered it. I was hesitant about an almond flour tortilla, but it was yummy. The lemonade was special and delicious.

It's so weird that a restaurant that gets it on the healthy food front is pushing transhumanism and technofascism, while refusing to take cash, thus violating their customers' privacy and anonymity. Customers are expected to order at a computer (while still being asked for tips!) and pay with credit cards. I watched my food sit under a food lamp for six minutes, as there was no actual employee tending to the delivering of food. If you really care about your customers, do away with the cold and offensive computer interface, and resume the receiving of cash, instead of fueling the destruction of western civilization by demanding your customers have credit cards. Does this mean you hate poor people? Talk about classist. Egads...

Really kind and lovely service, incredible options for gluten free dairy free, and tasty food. Offers outdoor seating in the back

Everything at this restaurant it gluten free and delicious!! I was so excited to find it!!! Don't miss the fudgie Brownies I will definitely be back!

Blandest food I've had in boulder by a long shot which is saying something. Textures were inconsistent and I didn't know you could screw up a quesadilla till I had one here. The awakened breakfast quesadilla was both dry and crumbly and maybe seasoned with salt? Definitely nothing more than that. It's like a vegan restaurant from LA came to boulder but they forgot to bring the good vegan food or anything creative or a fun ambience or nice decor. Not to be harsh it was just shockingly bad all around. Nothing on the staff though, everyone I spoke to was very nice and seemed happy to be there!

First time in this restaurant, so a nice young man behind the counter helped me order at the kiosk and his suggestion for breakfast was SPOT ON. The Bliss gluten free French toast sliders were served on a wooden slab with toasted coconut sprinkled on their soft lovely tops that held just right scrambled eggs and sausage that had been cut into fingers so every bite has a crispy edge in it. The maple was REAL as it should be in every restaurant. I got the carrot dip to go and the gluten free crackers were AMAZEBALLS. Very toothsome. I don't have to eat gluten free, but this place makes it easy and tasty to do so. I hope you get to try this food!!!

Best healthy restaurant in all of Denver and Boulder. Always such kind staff and their food is amazing. I've loved everything there. Their bone both is delicious and you should definitely try the triple D (DDD) special!

Been eyeing this spot ever since I tried the coffee shop next door. Got a Brisket Shepards Pie, very yummy, good size, little pricey. I enjoyed it a lot! Instead of bread it's smashed sweet potato which is healthy and gluten free I believe. Atmosphere there looks great, nice wall art, tons of seats. Staff was nice and helpful, store is clean with an open top view kitchen. Menu is a bit confusing but very unique! Will be going back and trying something else to eat, will update this review if needed.

I had never been to the location in denver, but I had heard good things about it so I decided to order delivery from Postmates since I live in Boulder and I prefer Paleo food. Let me just say oh my lord! The food is SUPERB , I loved the quesadilla and the cookie was DELICIOUS. This restaurant and Wild Pastures Burger Company are AMAZING. 100% seed oil free! I 100% recommend it.

The first time I had the breakfast burrito and the second time I had the shepards pie. Both were delicious! It's a really cute restaurant! The food was ready pretty quick

Amazing food and service, glad to see another health conscious spot in boulder. Highly recommend the passion curry cauli rice bowl.

Hands down, the best restaurant in the area. One of the only places around that doesn't use seed oils, is completely gluten-feee, and takes tremendous pride in sourcing healthy, quality ingredients. From the delicious food to the delightful staff, we can't recommend this place enough. Top picks: Loyal quesadilla w/ grass fed cheese + jalapeños, green chile, soups, French toast sliders, and house made Gatorade--AMAZING!

Great food! And it's my diet AIP! Super tasty food without harmful health ingredients. Taste good and makes you feel good! Very chill music. The staff were BEing super helpful and kind. Would go again in a heartbeat!
