Grand opening celebration to include FREE smoothies and select menu items and FREE wheat allergy testing; company NOW HIRING 120 employees
PowerSoul Cafe, the world’s first certified gluten-free fast-food restaurant chain, will make its official debut on Friday, Jan. 19, 2024, serving healthy fast food and smoothies, 24-hours a day.
Las Vegas-based entrepreneur Dina Mitchell announced the grand opening date and confirmed locations, along with additional details about the brand-new quick service restaurant brand.
The first two PowerSoul Café locations opening on Jan. 19 include the flagship and central kitchen at 8180 W. Warm Springs Rd. (at Tarkanian Plaza) and 3501 S. Valley View Blvd. in Chinatown.
To celebrate the grand opening and to offer customers the opportunity to enjoy several menu items, from Jan. 19-25, PowerSoul Café will offer free smoothies and food (offerings will vary daily) to customers who donate $1 or more to Boys & Girls Clubs of Southern Nevada. Special thanks to the following vendors for supplying product for the free smoothies and food during the grand opening week: Orlando Foods and Caputo, Patagonia Foods, Sysco, Dole and Daring.
The W. Warm Springs Rd. location will offer free wheat allergy testing on select dates and times, through a partnership with Summit Integrated Health.
“Cheers to my investors, supporters, vendors, and team: we did this – we’re officially opening! Now, Las Vegans and those who visit our great city will be the first to see what I have been working on for the last two years and experience our mouthwatering smoothies and healthy, delicious fast food while experiencing the Powerful and Soulful culture we’re bringing to life,” said Mitchell, founder of PowerSoul Café.
PowerSoul Café is NOW HIRING, accepting applications to hire 120 employees for three locations and the central kitchen. Applications and details available at www.powersoulcafe.com/careers.
The flagship and the largest site on W. Warm Springs Rd., will feature an AI drive-thru solution – produced by The Howard Company and Partech – self-serve AI pickup lockers produced by ONDO, and a walk-up window. The PowerSoul Cafe kitchen will be double-certified gluten-free, and all locations and employees will be certified gluten-free.
The S. Valley View Blvd. site will span 1,000 sq. ft. and will feature a walk-up window and self-serve AI pickup lockers.
In January, the first Henderson location will open at 1469 E. Lake Mead Pkwy. (at the Monument at Calico Ridge), and will have a 1,200 sq. ft. footprint, featuring an AI drive-thru solution, self-serve AI pickup lockers, and a walk-up window.
PowerSoul Cafe stores will operate 24-hours and will range in size from 500 to 1250 square feet with various footprints, including: drive-thru, inline, PODs, casino, sporting arenas and airports. The endeavor anticipates a minimum of 100 stores and thousands of jobs nationwide over the five years.
Ordering will be made easy with the ability to place and pay for orders via smartphone, website, and scanning a QR code, which will first direct customers to PowerSoul Cafe’s “Discover My Power” tool, a function that can filter menu options and recommendations based on individual dietary goals, flavor preferences, and allergies. Then, offering what Mitchell has coined as ‘Fearless Dining™, guests can schedule pickup times to retrieve orders through self-serve smart food lockers and walk-up windows, with many sites including a drive-thru window.
Mitchell, a longtime Nevada-based entrepreneur, popularized Tropical Smoothie Café’s brand from 2000 to 2014 all along the West Coast.
