Modmarket

For folks trying to watch their waistlines, eating out can be a major PITA — something as innocent-seeming as a salad can easily contain an entire day’s calorie allotment. Colorado-born fast-casual chain Modmarket, which bills itself as a “farm fresh eatery,” is refreshingly upfront about the nutritional stats of its food, even going so far as to print them on your receipt. A flatiron steak salad with gorgonzola and roasted potatoes will set you back 605 calories, or chow down on a crimini mushroom and kale whole grain flatbread pizza for a mere 487 calories. All the latest healthy eating buzzwords are present here, too, with cage-free eggs and nitrate-free bacon, and even separate menus for the gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan sects. The trendy vibe extends to the decor — with its hanging Edison bulbs, bright yellow metal chairs, polished concrete floors and excess of reclaimed wood, it’s not unlike hanging out in your quinoa and kale-loving hipster friend’s loft.
