We serve fresh, seasonal, and thoughtfully made food that’s fast, satisfying, and full of flavor, no weird ingredients, no compromises, just real meals you’ll actually crave.
Back in 2010, Kasia and Britni met while working in a restaurant in Chicago. They quickly bonded over a shared love of real food, seasonal veggies, and low-key dinner parties that had a habit of turning into something a little more magical. Both were tired of the all-or-nothing approach to eating—either ultra-healthy and joyless, or fast and full of junk. So, they decided to make the kind of food they were craving: fresh, flavorful, and actually good for you.
What started as a tiny counter in a downtown food hall has grown into a neighborhood favorite, with FARE locations popping up across Chicago (and more cities on the way). But even as we grow, the heart of FARE remains the same—simple ingredients, bold flavors, and food that fits real life. Every bowl, every bite, and every menu update still reflects the idea that brought Britni and Kasia together in the first place: keep it seasonal, keep it thoughtful, and make it seriously delicious.
