- Convenient selection of prepared "feel good" foods that can be taken to-go for the whole family to enjoy, or stay and enjoy a meal in our new outdoor or indoor seating area.
- Enjoy a meal in our new outside eating area! We have worked with SCAD design and sustainability classes and Emergent Structures who were able to bring this seating area to life. It's made of reclaimed material, protected with sealant made from whey, and the fresh herbs grow in compost made from our own kitchen scraps. Enjoy!
Environment
While serving prepared carry out healthy dishes, Thrive is also taking the initiative in making our take-out
packaging as eco-friendly as possible. Many of our containers are made of corn starch, and our utensils are made
of potato starch both made to biodegrade under natural conditions. For more info please click

We are also officially Savannah's first Green Certified Restaurant!

Thrive is also dedicated to involvement in our community by supporting eco-friendly, local organic events.
We support the Forsyth Farmer's Market happening every Saturday (April through December) from 9am - 1pm at Forsyth Park
