OUR STORY
Fifteen years ago, husband and wife duo, Brooke and Chad Knudson, launched d’Lite Healthy On The Go with one goal: create a quick-service restaurant that provides high-quality, nutritious eating in a convenient format, while creating a welcoming environment for guests to achieve healthier diets and lifestyle choices with ease.
The idea began around a dining table in 2007. Eating out at traditional restaurants left the them lethargic with stomach aches or worse. They identified that low quality products, hidden ingredients, imbalance of calories and chemically made products contributed to these negative impacts in the body. The quick-service restaurant sector also lacked concepts that offer healthy meals without sacrificing price or convenience. So, they decided to use their nutrition and business experience, determination and work ethic to provide a better option for consumers by forging a new path in the quick-service dining category.
Today, d’Lite is a health-conscious kitchen and coffee house with a mission to make everyday healthy eating accessible. To us, our daily decisions about what we eat, where it comes from and how it’s produced have long-term effects on our overall health and wellbeing.
Occupying a thriving niche restaurant category, d’Lite offers healthy alternatives that are not currently widely-available to consumers in a quick-service format. With a diverse, customizable menu of sandwiches, wraps, salads, bowls, burgers, smoothies and handcrafted coffees & teas, served in a fun and lively environment, d’Lite caters to every type of consumer. With health-forward food options designed to meet any dietary preference, we provide our guests with nourishing alternatives to fast food without sacrificing taste or convenience.
