ALL ABOUT US

Before we moved back to Dayton, OH from Austin, TX in 2012, we already had a dream to open a juice bar wherever we decided to land. But once we actually settled into Centerville, we realized how limited the options were for fresh and healthy food and drink in the area. After having our first two daughters, we started out as a juice trailer, The Shakery Juice Bar! You may have seen us bouncing around at different events and festivals, as well as delivering juice locally in our community. We knew that we eventually wanted to move into a brick and mortar space, but starting small was integral in our growth, and continues to be. We opened up as Power Plant Juice Bar in Centerville in December of 2019. As many of you remember, the covid pandemic hit a few months later in 2020, and it was not kind to small business owners. But we made it through, with our kids taking classes remotely on their computers at the tables in our shop, while we packaged up juice cleanses and special boxes for delivery. Here we are now in 2025, enjoying the fruits of our labor, with wonderful staff, the most loyal customers, and the ever-present dedication to healthy food + drink made with organic produce and, even better, produce from our local growers, such as Patchwork Gardens, CHS Environmental Science Program, Dayton Microgreens, Guided  by Mushrooms + more!

​

Our commitment to keeping things healthy, fresh, tasty and beautiful is probably what keeps you coming back. Power Plant also has a welcoming and happy vibe that doesn't hurt either. We hope to see you soon!
