Inspired by Yoga. Made with Love. At Kripalu, food is more than a meal—it’s fresh, local, and organic ingredients prepared with joy and intention. Every dish nourishes body, mind, and spirit, and reminds us that food is a practice of love, connection, and yoga. The Kripalu Kitchen serves whole grains, vegetables, and legumes as the foundation of the menu—with fresh poultry, fish, and dairy products offered as optional protein sources. Guests can always enjoy a fresh salad bar, a selection of delicious salad dressings, and our renowned freshly baked breads. The Ayurveda-inspired the Buddha Bar offers simple preparations of legumes, grains, vegetables, and an assortment of condiments.Each meal is served buffet-style, and each dish is labeled with a complete ingredient list. Our team is mindful of common dietary needs and provides options for guests with sensitivities like gluten, dairy, and nuts.View the Current Menu Meal Times Monday-Thursday:Breakfast 7:30–9:00 am Lunch 11:30 am–1:30 pm Dinner 5:30–7:00 pmFriday & Saturday:Breakfast 7:30–9:00 am Lunch 11:30 am–1:30 pm Dinner 5:30–7:30 pmSunday Breakfast 7:30–9:00 am Lunch 11:30 am–1:30 pm Dinner 5:30–7:00 pmBreakfast is a silent meal to help support conscious eating.

Dining FAQ's Vegetarian Options In addition to a cafeteria-style line that offers all-natural poultry and fish products at some meals, we always offer an exclusively vegetarian line. The lines include soup and an entrée plus grain, bean, and vegetable side dishes. There is also an extensive salad bar with raw vegetables, cheeses, seeds, and homemade salad dressings. Gluten Sensitivities For guests with gluten sensitivities, the Kripalu Kitchen takes careful steps to ensure an enjoyable dining experience; we use only wheat-free tamari (soy sauce), our miso is gluten-free, all herbs are gluten-free, we offer gluten-free hot and cold cereals every morning, and we have a 100% gluten-free area. While our bakery is not a gluten-free bakery, we do offer a gluten-free bread option at all meals. Kripalu Dining for Kids & Teens We recognize that, just like adults, our younger guests have varying food preferences and degrees of experience with the type of cuisine we serve. While we hope that children enjoy our dishes, we want you to be aware of the more traditional options we provide for kids. During lunch and dinner, a build-your-own sandwich bar including meats and cheeses is available near the Panini grill. We also offer plain white basmati rice, steamed vegetables, and plain beans on our Buddha Bar. At every meal, there is a side bar that includes peanut butter, jelly, bread, and rice cakes. Highchairs and booster seats are available in the Main Dining Hall.
