Fresh Healthy Cafe

I'm always in the search for healthy food fare and also places that offer gluten free choices/menus.
Found Fresh Healthy Cafe at Morgan Crossing in South Surrey. It was a sunny day and we were there about 4:30pm. No one was there. Its a small little cafe with few seats. They specialize in wraps, paninis, salads and smoothies.

Bryan chose a Full Panini Combo. You choose a panini or wrap (full size, im assuming theres a half size) and any med smoothie.
Mediterranean Panini: roasted chicken breast, lettuce, green peppers,
olives, feta cheese and tzatziki sauce
with Green Tea Matcha Smoothie

The panini was very filling. The bread had a great toasty crunch and the combination of the sauce with chicken and feta was perfect. yum yum! The Matcha smoothie was a sure win as well. It had a nice light refreshing taste. 

I had a Turkey Pesto Wrap, Gluten-free!
 Turkey Pesto: turkey, mozzarella cheese, tomatoes and pesto
The wrap was actually pretty good! Sometimes with a gluten-free product the texture is vastly different than what you're used to, but with their wraps, I almost forgot that it WAS gluten-free! The ingredients definitely tasted fresh and the pesto was nummy in my tummy :) I have to admit though that they went a little overboard with

This is a great place if you're wanting something healthier than Mcdonalds or are tired of subway and quiznos. The only downside is its a bit pricier. For all you see in the photos, we paid a little over $18.00. I was surprised that the debit machine even prompted for a tip..but I declined that lol they don't bring you your food, they just call you and you pick it up at the counter.

We'd probably come back here if we were in the area because its a 35 min drive from my place in Vancouver and a 30 min drive from Bryan's place in Surrey (Guildford).

Overall, we give this place a rating of 7.5 out of 10.

Happy Eating, xoxo
Bryan & Dina
