Green Cup, beloved for its acai bowls and refreshing smoothies, is set to elevate the health food scene with the launch of Green Cup Canteen at its Armadale location.
They opened in August and this exciting expansion introduces a Nourish Bowl menu that is both enticing and customizable, catering perfectly to the local community and health-conscious food enthusiasts.
Nestled in the heart of High St Armadale, the Green Cup store has undergone a six-week transformation, emerging with a fresh design overhaul and a new identity. Wherever you spot the Green Cup Canteen branding, you’ll know there’s a vibrant salad bar ready to serve. Founder and Director Natalie Guest expressed her enthusiasm, stating, “Reopening our doors on High St Armadale with an exciting new salad bar offering is very exciting. We’ve been listening to our community… I’m always craving a clean, fresh and simple salad.”
The new menu offers a delightful range of options for every palate. Patrons can choose from four featured bowls—Chicken, Tofu, Salmon, and Tuna—or craft their own culinary masterpiece. Start with a protein selection such as Sashimi Tuna, Sashimi Salmon, Tofu, or Chicken, and pair it with a base of Brown Rice, Mixed Leaves, or Sushi Rice. Add vibrancy with up to four fresh salads from a selection that includes Avocado, Cabbage, Bean Sprouts, and Edamame, and finish with herbs like Mint or Coriander. For that extra crunch, options like Crispy Shallots and Wasabi Peas await, all complemented by dressings such as Ponzu and Sesame Soy. With three bowl sizes—small, medium, and regular—there’s a perfect portion for everyone.
The Armadale store now mirrors the aesthetic charm of the recently launched Hawksburn Village location, thanks to a collaboration with luxury interior designers Hecker Guthrie. Their expertise has transformed the space into a modern oasis, utilizing raw materials like timber and steel to create a sophisticated yet welcoming atmosphere. The store features a dedicated ‘nourish bowl salad bar,’ where customers can engage with an interactive dining experience. With limited seating both inside and outside (13 seats total), it offers a cozy spot to enjoy a meal or to grab a quick bite on the go.
In addition to the new Nourish Bowl menu, Green Cup Canteen continues to offer its renowned smoothies and acai bowls, along with house-made peanut butter, smashed avocado toast, and various healthy snacks. Their diverse menu is designed to accommodate all dietary preferences, including vegan, gluten-free, and raw food options, underscoring Green Cup’s commitment to inclusivity in the health-conscious community.
Open from Monday to Sunday, 8 AM to 4:30 PM, with the nourish bowl menu available from 11:30 AM daily, Green Cup Canteen is conveniently located at 1242 High St, Armadale VIC 3143. As they plan to expand their trading hours in the coming months, there’s no better time to visit and experience the new offerings that have the local community buzzing with excitement.
