CrossFit isn’t just a fitness routine and fitness isn’t just a “I’ll do this for a bit” thing in general.

It is a way of life!

If you’re looking to get into CrossFit or are already a CrossFitter, one of the biggest things that should be on your mind is “where can I eat?”

While cheat meals are a thing and cooking at home is the healthiest way to eat (because you can actually choose and see what goes into your meal), sometimes you just want to go out for a nice meal to eat in Houston without having to think about “is this meal going to help me get closer to my goals?”

So, to ease your mind, here are the restaurants we recommend for CrossFitters in Houston, Texas looking for a healthy bite to eat:

Bellagreen (Multiple Locations)

• Bellagreen is a Brunch spot on the weekends and open for Lunch and Dinner the rest of the week. You can enjoy a wide selection of gluten free sandwiches, pastas, tacos, pizzas (when ordered gluten free), and burgers (also when ordered gluten free).

Ruggles Black (Montrose/Upper Kirby)

• This is a local business run by an amazing chef that focuses on Paleo and Keto food with Indian And South East Asian inspiration. While it is on the pricier side, it is a lovely place for you and your WOD buddy for life to go have a great date night out!

Local Foods (Multiple Locations)

• Local foods is part mini grocery store, part sandwich shop, and part Brunch locale on the weekends where you can find all sorts of healthy options. Also, nearly everything on the menu can be made gluten free!

Loro (The Heights)

• This Asian Smokehouse restaurant opened by the owners of Franklin’s BBQ in Austin and Uchi Sushi have created a restaurant that is protein forward. You can get healthy protein bowls or shareables for the table where you know everything is smoked or is fried gluten free (although they do mix fry here so be aware).

While these are just a few options in a city where food is king, we hope that these can help you get started here in Houston finding the places you love to eat at with the people you’ll come to love here at Vegvisir!
