It's a little weird this has it's own yelp page, but I'll go with it. The ArmBar is the UFC gyms' cafe. It specializes in protein-enriched drinks as well as some healthier options for snacks/meals.
If you've never had a protein drink before I suggest withholding your thoughts on initial reaction. Sometimes the cafe has samples out so try a sample (I do not believe they can whip up a sample of a drink if you ask them to because they have set calculations and have to blend the ingredients and to make one sample would be difficult).
However, if you know that protein does have a unique taste, go right ahead. I really like their peanut butter one, if I recall it was called the grasshopper or something just as strange. Superman is good too. They do use a few different protein powders so you can ask, just as asking for reg. milk, soy milk, etc in the drinks.
I also had one of their salads, it was small but fresh. Their oatmeal really lacked taste though and was hard to get down.
The Armbar also sells some work out gear, and the necessary GIs you need for some of the ultimate classes. You have to wear a UFC Gi to them so you have to buy them here. They also sell protein powder, small work out equipment, and locks (you need to bring a lock to the gym).
Service can be slow at times. Sometimes the workers can be busy ignoring you and other times they will be the most amazing people ever. Usually after classes get out there's a long line so try to get there first! read more
