The perfect healthy, fresh lunch spot! There’s a variety of salads, meals and snacks with lots of gluten free options. Morgan is creative with the menu, shaking it up with the seasons. My favourites are the peanut pad thai and fiesta bowl. Definitely recommend, it’s now my go-to lunch spot in KW!

My favorite spot to grab lunch in Waterloo! Their food is healthy and filling—it’s like getting home-cooked food when you don’t feel like cooking. Their coffee is delicious too. The owner is super nice too—always conversing and getting to know her customers.

This is a great place for healthy and fresh food with a variety of gluten and dairy free options. The owner takes pride in serving the food she offers and it shows. The quality and freshness of the ingredients shines through. My family and I were pleased to see the wide variety of options available that we could all eat and enjoy. We will definitely revisit next time we are in town.

We used the three to cater snacks and wraps for an information session we were hosting at work for 35 people. Morgan was so easy to communicate and plan with! She created a spread of different vegetarian and vegan wrap flavours that were all so delicious that we didn't have one complaint from meat eaters! The energy balls with holiday flavours were also a huge hit. Definitely recommend the three!

My go-to lunch spot! Not only is the food delicious, it is locally sourced (as much as possible) and healthy! The Three is mindful of the environmental impact caused by food consumption and distribution and uses all means possible to ensure the eatery is not contributing to the problem. If that s not enough for you, the owner is an incredible person and will surely bring a smile to your face!

Having lunch at the Three is my go to! Morgan makes the most delicious meals (ummm hello burger bowl!) with healthy and local ingredients. I don t think there is anywhere else that could have me truly enjoying a chocolate zucchini muffin, but Morgan did the impossible. Highly recommend whether it s for coffee, a snack or lunch!

Been eying the three wellness for some time on Instagram and finally got a chance to visit for lunch! Tried the deconstructed burger bowl and the flavours and freshness were on point! Additionally got a blueberry bliss smoothie and got to customize it to my liking with a protein scoop! Something that KW region is missing is holistic natural whole food meal service and so glad to have found my new go-to for when I m on the road!

Morgan makes green vegetables taste good! The salad and bowl combos are delicious but the house made dressings elevate the meals x10. Don t believe me? Try the burger bowl. Youre welcome :)

I started using The Threes meal prep service a couple of months ago and let me tell you that I feel so so grateful and honoured to be a part of it. This summer was a wild one for me and Morgan and her team made sure that I stayed completely nourished by providing the most delicious meals and snacks. The healthy meals that they offered helped me stay energized all day and relieved me of the crushing stress that I experienced when I knew I didnt have time to cook or go to the grocery store. Its also just such a bonus that Morgan is local, uses quality ingredients from the farmers market, and is the sweetest gal around. Thank you, The Three Welllness, I give you ALL my stars.

I finally found a meal prep option that works perfectly for my busy lifestyle. Nutritious, locally sourced, convenient AND colourful!! I work shift work and I m constantly on the go. I was finding myself eating a gross amount of fast food and subsequently spending a gross amount of money only to feel gross. The meals from The Three are delicious and ever changing. The menu options switch up but the quality never waivers. The food is always top notch. Everything tastes amazing and I feel amazing after polishing off the entire meal! Beyond the meal prep, the service is unbeatable and Morgan is always ready to serve up a hot drink with a warm smile. I am so happy I found The Three and I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone!

Weve been using the meal prep services mostly to have healthy snacks for both adults and kids. The menu changes to create variety, the portions are excellent, the packaging is sustainable, and we know that everything we eat is wholesome and locally sourced. The times when we have ordered meals (as opposed to snacks), the flavours have been amazing, and the quantity is often enough to share! Highly recommend.

If youre looking to support a local business, this is the one! Delicious healthy meal options. The burger bowls have some of the best burger sauce Ive ever had and the energy bites are amazing for those looking for something sweet. 10/10 recommend!!
