Jan's Health Bar - Costa Mesa

Good healthy food - salad, turkey sandwich and cold oats.

I absolutely love Jans and have been going to the HB location my whole life. Recently I moved to Costa Mesa, and the food here tastes nothing like the HB one. I'm not sure what the difference in ingredients is, but it is not the same. The Broccoli Cheddar soup (my favorite) has a bleach after taste? The Tuna sandwich is flavorless and the chicken soup also. Such a bummer.

The $8 bagel had a thin paper layer of cream cheese (when cream cheese is what makes a bagel worth eating). I get inflation, but when you charge inflation prices you better bring it. We can’t write off a bad experience here and there anymore since these bad experiences cost us greatly now. So a note to whomever reads this. I understand the economics of inflation, but remember this old phrase; “you get what you pay for”, that timing statement goes both ways, when we overpay we should “get what we paid for”.

Love Jan’s. From great smoothies to great sandwiches, this is a great spot.

I really like this place. There’s many healthy options to choose from and everything tastes great and fresh. I always feel light yet fully satisfied after a meal here. The protein shakes are so tasty. I love their salads and that you can customize the entrees. There are some indoor dining tables and bar stool seating.
