With rising interests in health and well-being, most cafes offer a few health-focused food and beverage options—but "Smart Food for a Good Mood" makes up the entirety of the offerings at a new cafe chain called 'Dr [Smood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candy-dates).'

When husband-and-wife team Rene Sindlev and Patrizia Manici Sindlev came up with the idea for Dr Smood, they consulted a holistic nutritionist to develop an entirely [anti-inflammatory menu](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/golden-glowinspired-winter-menu). Some of the plant-based, dairy-free and all-organic options on the menu include vegan sandwiches, detoxifying juices and healthy snacks like the Organic DrS Eggplant Jerky.

As well as having a [health-focused menu](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/healthy-side-up) that will appeal to Millennials, Dr Smood cafes promise comfortable seating, free WiFi, charging stations for mobile devices and specially curated playlists for different times of the day.
