NoMad’s Newest Wellness Destination: Impact Kitchen
The NoMad neighborhood has long been a destination for those who live, work, and play in the city. Now, it’s about to get even healthier. Impact Kitchen, a Canadian wellness-driven eatery, is making its U.S. debut in NoMad July 14 at 1123 Broadway, bringing with it a food philosophy that’s all about real, whole, and high-quality ingredients. It is NoMad’s newest wellness destination.
More Than a Restaurant, It’s a Wellness Lifestyle
Impact Kitchen isn’t an ordinary fast-casual spot. With a focus on nutrient-dense, 100% gluten-free meals free from refined sugars and seed oils, it caters to a broad spectrum of health-conscious diners. Whether someone is a gym enthusiast looking for high-protein meals, a yogi seeking plant-based nourishment, or simply someone who wants to eat clean, Impact Kitchen has something for them.
“We never saw ourselves as a restaurant – we’re a lifestyle brand,” says co-founder Josh Broun. “We want to be a part of people’s everyday lives.”
Impact Kitchen also prioritizes hospitality and a sense of community. The space is designed to be warm and inviting, encouraging people to connect and make health-conscious choices in an environment that feels supportive.
What You Can Expect on the Menu
Impact Kitchen’s menu is designed with flexibility in mind. All bowls are vegetarian or vegan by default, with the option to add high-quality proteins like grass-fed beef or free-range chicken. The focus is on nutrient-dense meals that fuel performance and long-term wellness, rather than restrictive dieting.
Beyond meals, Impact Kitchen offers functional beverages like cold-pressed juices, herbal teas, and sipping bone broths – all designed to provide hydration with a purpose. Their signature Impact Everyday protein line, which includes grass-fed whey and plant-based options, has already been a hit in Toronto, helping drive smoothie sales and becoming a staple for their regular customers.
Broun recalls a surprising realization: “Until we opened, I didn’t realize how many people have dietary issues. We are transparent with every ingredient, so people know what they are choosing to eat. We don’t prescribe any specific diet, but we offer options so people can eat how they want.”
Impact Kitchen is a gluten-free kitchen offering paleo to vegan options. It’s ideal for catering and events, too.
