The Hive offers nutrient-packed meals without sacrificing taste
New Health-centered Manhattan Beach restaurant The Hive uses quality ingredients to produce hearty and flavorful dishes.
The restaurant is located just a walk up from the beach, providing accessible yet nutritious food for on-the-go. The menu features a solid variety of food including smoothies, protein bowls and wraps, toasts, and breakfast staples while maintaining fresh flavor, balanced macros, and ethically sourced animal products. The food is a bit pricey, but the extra cost is worth it for customers who value superfood and organic ingredients.
From the all-day breakfast menu, the Protein Scramble Toast is a simple yet balanced dish, bursting with flavor from the tangy cilantro lime dressing and topped with multiple protein sources such as chicken, eggs, and feta. The Chicken Athena bowl is another classic that allows each individual ingredient to shine on its own, serving as a more elevated and filling version of a typical salad. The smoothies are another highlight, blending naturally sweet fruit and flavorings to produce decadent beverages loaded with health boosters including collagen, protein, and bee pollen.
The seating is located next to massive windows with spectacular views of the beach, adding a visual component to the dining experience. The restaurant also fosters a social environment by providing board and card games for guests to play while eating. The friendly and accommodating staff add to this positive atmosphere, creating a space not only for nourishing plates but also for community building.
The Hive is open from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. on Highland Avenue in Manhattan Beach. For more information, visit hivehealthyeats.com.
