Based in Blackpool, the Health Lounge has been run by Sam Haines for the past two years. Only a few months after having a kidney transplant, the inspirational 30-year-old decided to take on the business during the spring of 2020.
T
he Health Lounge’s menu offers a tempting range of dishes and snacks, which are designed to be nutritious without ever compromising on taste. “Eating well doesn’t mean you have to restrict yourself”, Sam explains. “Food is a huge part of our lives and should be enjoyable. At the Health Lounge we’re all about maintaining a good balance, meaning that our meals are packed with good nutrition but are also tasty.”
The dishes are freshly made on site so that Sam and his team know exactly what has gone into them, meaning there are no unhealthy additives or unwelcome hidden ingredients. Prior to taking on the Health Lounge, Sam was very much a novice in the kitchen, but in the early days of the business had to learn the ropes quickly after being thrown in at the deep end because of staff shortages.
