Green Power Cafe at Equinox

Fabulous! Most Equinox in the city just have that raw crap that passes for food. Not this café at the most elegant, old-​school of the locations in the city I’ve visited.
I’ve still not worked out here but I’ve been inside three times. My apartment was being painted and I can’t tolerate that smell, so I hopped the 4 and hung out in the quiet, comfortable café lounge. The food is fabulous. I’d eat lunch here daily if I worked on Wall Street (and if you do work down there, you should immediately join!).
They have a juice bar of course (which is about 20% less expensive than Juice Generation). The coffee is wonderful and just 2 bucks for a large. And they have a huge selection of hot entrees (grilled balsamic chicken spectacular, as are the vegetable sides).
Large portions of fresh, healthy food served in a quiet place you can charge your phone or computer while looking out at the beautiful old Wall Street buildings. One of the best 10 dollar lunch deals in the city and all this just a block off the 4÷5÷6 train.

Ordered delivery from here and my food came hot right on time. I got the protein+2 sides (chipotle chicken + brussel sprouts + broccoli salad) and a quinoa veggie salad. My only complaint of my experience is the lack of description for the food items. The broccoli salad is not actually a salad, and the main ingredient is not broccoli. «Sauteed kale» would be a better description. The quinoa with veggie is actually quinoa with sundried tomato, bean, corn and feta cheese so don’t order this if you’re vegan. Aside from the misrepresentations, the food was very good. Brussel sprouts was flavorful altho a bit undercooked. The chipotle chicken was SPICY so beware. Portion size was very generous.

This is my go to lunch place when I can’t think of anything else.
The price is good and the portions are big.
Even though it is in equinox (gym) you can just tell the people at the front desk that you are there to eat and they will let you in.
I recommend $ 8 plate, where you can pick 3 differnet side dishes. I like the quinoa, turkey chilli, and the grilled vegetables.
The smoothies are also amazing, but a bit pricey.

I come here all the time because the food is fresh, healthy, and affordable. It definitely beats eating in my company’s cafeteria that is full of fatty foods. The guys behind the counter are cool, and they recently adopted a new plate system where there’s a 4, 7, 8, and 10 dollar plate to fill as many different sides you want. The other option is to get 1 protein and 2 sides for 9 bucks. I usually get the bbq turkey burger, sweet potatoes, and spicy kale broccoli salad. This place is a great alternative to Digg Inn who has recently upped their prices.

Bodybuilder food. Chicken & brocolli, quinoa, tofu burgers, turkey burgers, veggie burgers… all kinds of steamed & sauteed veggies. Also large selection of protein bars and to-​go items such as hardboiled eggs, salads and yogurt. Prices are very reasonable – the «large» platter of chicken and two sides is $ 9.00. Sandwiches are large for the price. Overall great place.
