Square 1682 is Serving Up Juices & Healthy Foods to Help Get You Summer Time Fine
Memorial Day weekend is about a month away, which means if you haven’t been staying in shape, it’s time to kick it into fifth gear. For those that work and play in Center City, especially the Rittenhouse Square area, you’ll be happy to know that you have another option to help you make better decisions with your diet. Square 1682 is serving-up healthy juices as well as food options to help get you summer time fine.
As always showing is better than telling. With Chef Caitlin Mateo at the helm and skilled bartenders handcrafting the juices, this one-two punch is low-key serving some of the best juice and food combo in city. First and foremost we had to park our keisters at the bar for a little juice session. Our bartender Ben was stocked with what looked like a mini garden on his counter and was ready to show us what we’ve been missing.
We’re talking juices with fresh fruits and veggies that are locally sourced and cut fresh every morning. Ingredients such as pineapples, bell peppers, broccoli, beets and kale, were all going down the hatchet. The juice menu is perfect for a healthy lunch break, perhaps an in-and-out breakfast or post workout refuel. Whatever the case is, these are all a must try. For those looking for a little kick to their drinks, Square 1682 offers the option to “spike” their juices with vodka, rum, tequila, bourbon or any other type of liquor to turn things up a notch. Hey why not try these bad boys out during prime cocktail hours and enjoy an adult beverage guilt-free.
