Mojo Café 

other-worldy coffee and my fave gym!

Along with free WiFi, the eat-in/take-out café offers Blue Bottle Coffee (single origin beans from the San Francisco roaster | www.bluebottlecoffee.com), pressed juices, protein smoothies and blendies (invigorating blends of fresh fruits, veggies and other organic ingredients), Serendipitea (fair trade organic tea), lavender lemonade (made in-house with fresh-squeezed lemons) and Tcho Chocolate (fair trade, organic, luxury chocolate, used in all mochas and also sold by the bar).

Edibles include a variety of grab ‘n go food (chicken breast kale salad, chicken salad, turkey wraps, Athens salad, etc.), Short Cake (local farmers market-based bakery, featuring gluten free and vegan options) and Skinny Genius Granola, which owner David Shadle describes as “unbelievably delicious!”

Every aspect of Mojo Café was thought through and carefully chosen.  To pick their coffee partner, the team flew to San Francisco and “spent three days tasting every roaster in town.”  They developed their protein smoothies to minimize calories without sacrificing taste, and the grab ‘n go menu was developed to take all the guesswork out of choosing a quick meal.

The vision behind Mojo Café is driven by partners David Shadle and Toby Johnson, who sought to “improve the experience of our gym clientele and to bring a healthy alternative to our neighborhood that we have been a part of for 75 years,” says Shadle.

Mojo Café is located at 8051 Beverly Blvd., Los Angeles CA 90048.  Hours of operation are 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m.  For more information, please visit http://mojostrong.com.
