Dining at Kripalu

Inspired By Yoga. Made with Love.

Every meal at Kripalu is prepared by people who care deeply about the health of the planet and our bodies.

Quality. We begin with the most nutritious, least processed, freshest foods—local, seasonal, organic, delicious.
Intention. Kripalu foods were meant to be eaten mindfully—each mouthful is to be savored. 
Nourishment. Eating healthy is healing and nourishing for the body, mind, and spirit.
Love. Our food choices affect our relationships with the planet and with our fellow human beings. It’s all love, and it’s all yoga.

DINING AT KRIPALU


The Kripalu Kitchen serves whole grains, fresh vegetables, and legumes as the backbone of the menus, with fresh poultry, fish, and dairy products as optional protein sources. Fresh salad fixings and a selection of delicious salad dressings are always available, as are our famous freshly baked breads. Additionally, the Ayurveda-influenced Basics Bar offers simple preparations of legumes, grains, vegetables, and an assortment of balancing condiments.

All of our meals are served buffet-style and every dish is labeled with a complete ingredient list. While we ask that you be responsible for reading labels to identify any potential food allergens, we want you to know that we have a special awareness around several specific food requests. We work hard to balance our choices to include options for our guests with some of the most common food sensitivities, including gluten, dairy, and nuts.
