Clean Eatz

Clean Eatz is in the business of making healthy living simple, delicious, and accessible for everyone. With well-balanced meal plans, catering, and a cafe offering dine-in or takeout options of fresh foods and smoothies, the Clean Eatz mission is to support people’s health goals while creating a positive, supportive space for the community. Clean Eatz provides thought-provoking education and motivational support that inspires results. People are not one-size-fits-all, so the staff works on personalized nutrition and fitness plans that cater to each person’s unique needs.

In 2016, after becoming overwhelmed with the amount of unhealthy fast-food options, Alex and Allie Avila decided to bring Clean Eatz to Lexington. Both Lexington High School graduates and former college athletes, the couple knows the importance of proper nutrition and the desire to keep it affordable and delicious. Now, with two children of their own, they see even more clearly the importance of establishing healthy habits and have a passion for helping others build a strong foundation in nutrition. The couple’s desire to see cleaner fast-food options in the area ignited a spark to open a Clean Eatz location in downtown Columbia as well.

At Clean Eatz, the phrase “healthy food that doesn’t suck” is taken seriously. “We have a team of flavor fanatics who won’t let anything hit your plate until it has been taste-tested, debated, and occasionally fought over – the peanut butter protein balls are serious business. We are your personal food squad, dedicated to making sure healthy eating feels like a treat, not a chore,” Avila said.

Even the Clean Eatz staff join in with friendly competitions like “Who Can Fold the Fastest Wrap” or “The Smoothie Blender Symphony.” Keeping the atmosphere and energy exciting is a morale boost for everyone. “And the best part?” said Avila, “you, our amazing customers, are always part of the fun. Whether cracking jokes at the counter or hearing your creative ways to stay healthy, your momentum keeps us smiling and motivated every day.”

“We opened Clean Eatz for us and our amazing community so everyone could have access to better food choices without breaking the bank,” she said. “It’s been an incredible journey, and we are proud to be part of helping you eat clean and live healthily.”
