We came here to get a smoothie, as Emerald City Smoothie recently relocated to Park Row in downtown Bellevue. Glad to have it in the area, as it provides healthier smoothies than any other smoothie spot around. We ordered a 32oz. Mango Berry smoothie to share, which is a good size for doing so. There’s also a 24oz. size option. In addition to smoothies, which you can customize to your liking, they offer acai bowls and other health products like supplements, protein powder, pre-workout mixes, etc… There was only one employee working on a Thursday late afternoon when we visited, so service was slow since there were a few customers waiting to get their smoothie. The shop here though is much better than its former downtown Bellevue location, offering more space, which allows for customers to hang out on the couch or at other seating options. I’m a fan of Emerald City Smoothie, so am glad they’ve reopened in downtown Bellevue. There are lots of healthy options here for smoothies, with some including whey protein or boosters. I like that you can customize any of the smoothies, to whatever fruit flavor, boosters, milk options, etc…you desire.

Planet Smoothie – Menu with Prices – 2270 Town Center Ave, Melbourne

I recently went to Planet Smoothie for a smoothie. Let me preface this review by saying that I am a smoothie aficionado. My primary breakfast every morning is a smoothie & customize my smoothies daily using a different variety of fruit along w/ additions such as turmeric, ginger root, etc. First & foremost the service at Planet Smoothie was solid. I opted for the Acai Original made w/ açaí, apple, strawberries, & bananas. I got the small 22 ounce size. I got the following add-ins for smoothie: Whole Grain Oats, Peanut Butter, & Leafy Greens I felt the add-ins would give the smoothie more sustenance along w/ some nutrients from the greens. The smoothie was A-OK yet three stars are given instead of four for several reasons. I felt the smoothie was costly for what you get. The add-ins were $1 each & the quantity of the add-ins isn’t even that great. Oats are one of the most affordable foods on the market & a small scoop of oats shouldn’t cost $1. I felt .50 cents per add-in would be more reasonable. The biggest annoyance of my smoothie was they are made w/ ice. I requested no ice & the person making my smoothie said that wasn’t possible. She made it w/ less ice even so felt the ice added a lot of filler. For the cost of the smoothie which was in fact costly felt they should be more substantial using more fruit, less ice, & less costly add-ins. If these improvements were made can see bumping my review up to four stars yet not sure if these suggestions would be implemented. On a plus side appreciate being able to customize your smoothie & it is helpful to list the calories for the smoothies along w/ the calories for each additional potential add-in for which there is a lot. Smoothies are in fact a great way to eat more fruit & can be healthy. I think Planet Smoothie would still be a better option than say Cold Stone Creamery next door. Eat more fruit!

Tropical Smoothie Cafe – Menu with Prices – 2380 Lifestyle Way Suite 140, Chattanooga

Healthy smoothies and healthy food… ahhh yes, please. Got to go to tropical smoothie on their opening day and was really happy and surprised by their quality and selection of food options. Really convenient to park especially because they’re one of the first businesses to open in a brand new center. I had a Cali Chicken Flatbread and a Chia Banana strawberry smoothie. Both of them were great and I definitely recommend them. I’m really glad that Tropical Smoothie has come to Chattanooga as I’ve heard lots about them from other people and glad to have an awesome healthier option that is so close to the highway!

Ice Ice Smoothie – Menu with Prices – 2821 Wilmington Pike, Dayton

I was telling my trainer I couldn’t find a good protein that tasted good and did what I wanted. My trainer recommended I go to Ice Ice Smoothie. He said they were the best supplement store in the area. Finally, one morning, I stopped in. The guy working the counter was super helpful and knowledgeable about the products. He offered me a sample to try and told me that if I decided I didn’t like the sample, not to open the purchased product and I would be able to return it. The new protein I purchased is great. It also mixes well with the crappy tasting stuff I have at home. ? Ice Ice Smoothie also has food / smoothies for purchase: dine in / eat out. I’ve since been 2x and had two different smoothies; both delicious and filling. I know the name of the place is cheesy, but If you’re looking for supplements and knowledgeable employees; this is the place for you.

Sunshine Juice Co. – Menu with Prices – 6225 E Virginia St suite c, Evansville

I love the idea of this place most of all. I’ve had some really great experiences here, like the time I ordered the Tropicana banana smoothie with plant protein. That was delicious! Expensive, but delicious. It was nice and blended and not at all the water down version of most establishments. I’m also a fan of the breakfast smoothie, but one time I ordered it and I got this water down smoothie that wasn’t frozen and it had lots of chunks of oats in it, which I did not appreciate. I do not blame the whole restaurant on this one mistake. No, this was just a case of a bad smoothie maker. But, that smoothie cost eight dollars! It was a small! I understand that fresh fruit is expensive but no small drink should cost that much. I’ve had experiences with their juices which I enjoyed very fresh and detoxifying. Be careful about the smoothies. I think I prefer making my own smoothies. The key to all good good smoothies is frozen FRESH fruit. I think this place sticks by that rule only halfway. I would go back I think, but only for the chocolate peanut butter granola. I highly recommend that!

Chey’s Kitchen – Menu with Prices – 132 S 17th St, Philadelphia

I was walking up 17th Street on my way to Sip N Glo for a smoothie when I saw a sign promoting the smoothies at Cheys Kitchen. I’d never heard of the place and there weren’t many reviews, but I’m glad that I decided to give Cheys Kitchen a try. First and foremost, the customer service is outstanding. The owner, Curt, might just be the most personable human being on the planet. When I first walked in I was warmly greeted and told that any customization was possible. I asked about the liquid that was added to the smoothie (Super Kale), and was told it was 5 parts water to 1 part sugar. I noticeably balked at the added sugar, and without even having to ask, he made a smoothie with just ice. Now, the smoothies are NOT cheap—$7.99 minimum. That said, the only sizes available are large and larger (24 and 32 oz), so when you see the size of the smoothie the price makes sense. The smoothie I had tasted fresh and had just the right amount sweetness from the bananas—not added sugar needed. In addition to great smoothies, Cheys also has an excellent veggie burger. I’m no vegeterian, but I’ve had the veggie burger here several times (ask for the beyond patty) and it is honestly one of the best veggie burgers I’ve ever had. Every time I order I ask for it to be topped with hummus, mango, and caramelized onions. I have no idea why it works, but it does, and in a BIG way. They have an extensive menu of smoothies, breakfast, sandwiches, and acai bowls, so there’s still much more for me to try. But with the combination of good food, satisfying smoothies, and phenomenal service, I will definitely be visiting Cheys Kitchen again in the future.

Willow & Co Menu with Prices 908 E 5th St Suite 107, Austin

In ATX for the weekend, wanted to explore a bit. Willow & Co was a quick walk from my hotel and had great options! I got the Protein Greens smoothie which had amazing texture and a great subtle pb flavor. Also had the Smash Toast, which is an amazing combo of cream cheese, honey, blackberries, + pistachios. A clean, fun, chill place to hang and study while enjoying high quality food!! They’ve got to-go options if you need to grab something, but the craftsmanship is quick and high quality. Great little smoothie + healthy shop! And for a good price compared to some other places.

Zoyo Neighborhood Yogurt – Menu with Prices – 1633 S Higley Rd Suite 101, Gilbert

I went into smoothie run for the first time yesterday, took one sip of the smoothie I got and was not happy with my choice. They gave me a coupon for buy one get one so today I decided to give them another shot. I just Got there at 11:05, they open at 11:00 and someone was in there. After knocking on the locked door 5 times and not getting let i got in my car. Then I saw her go unlock the door so I went back up thinking I have a coupon may as well. The smoothies I got today are awful, no flavor. I had a buy one get one coupon and was charged 12$ but the smoothies are originally 8$? She didn’t apply my Snap Fitness 10% off, AND it’s double loyalty points on Tuesday’s and I’ve bought 4 smoothies from this place now and somehow have 2/8 stars. To top it off the employee took a phone call while I was ordering. The whole concept of the place is not great…a place that has healthy options like smoothies and salads should not have pizza, etc. NEVER RETURNING. This place should go out of business ASAP and be replaced with something else.

MAD Nutrition & Smoothies – Menu with Prices – 4834 14th St W, Bradenton

This place is by far the best for nutritional and 26g protien smoothies without fillers. The owners are very nice and accommodating! They have no problem showing you what exactly goes into each smoothie. You can change any ingredient in your smoothie to something else. I like to get a nutty monkey and make it skinny which takes out the granola and puts in Quaker whole oats and has unsweetened almond milk. Or I’ll get the tropical treasure smoothie but take out the apple juice and replace it with unsweetened almond milk. They will make you a smoothie and give you the extras in another cup every time! This is another perk for them! Love that! They also sell supplements. Thank you for making the best smoothies around! Never drinking smoothie king again.

New York Smoothie and Grill – Menu with Prices – 267 Sawdust Rd, Spring

I’m all about smoothies so when I see a place that their specialty are smoothies I am pumped. What a huge disappointment this place came to be. My smoothie tasted like tap water with a squirt of strawberry, I thought I was exaggerating but my boyfriend said he definitely tasted the tap water. I tasted my boyfriends smoothie to see if his was any better and it was but it wasn’t good either. They have food options too that I was super excited to test out but apparently they are only open in the mornings and it’s like a separate shop. Confusing and inconvenient. Will not be stopping by here again.

Smoothie King – Menu with Prices – 2860 E Harmony Rd Suite 120, Fort Collins

I would really like to like Smoothie King more. My first experience with them went . . . smoothly. In and out within 10 minutes, and they were decent smoothies. However, when I was there on 12/16, I ordered 2 smoothies, and sat down to wait. After waiting 15 minutes and my order wasn’t even STARTED, I went next door and got my burger order in. After waiting 15 minutes more, I went and picked up my burgers, put them in the truck and went back to waiting. Back to Smoothie King. After a total of 39 minutes, I received the first of my 2 smoothies, and after another 5 or so I got the second. An apology was given, but there was no explanation for the excessive wait, nor any effort to comp or half off next time. It’s convenient to my house, but at this point I’d rather drive an extra 5 minutes and be assured of getting the smoothie and getting started on it. Good luck Smoothie King – hope you get your act together.

NrGize Lifestyle Cafe – Menu with Prices – 10055 NW 41st St, Miami

Nrgize is located inside the LA Fitness. It’s very convenient. They have a lot of healthy options. They make fruit smoothies, mega smoothies, and beneficial blends. The smoothies are available in three sizes: small, medium, and large. They have the calories listed next to each size which is great if you want to keep track of calorie intake. Another reason why I love Nrgize is that they have prepared meals that you can buy to take or you can have them heat it up for you and eat it there. Each meal has calorie, carbs, and protein listed. The staff is very helpful and courteous. I’m definitely appreciative of Nrgize for days when I’m exhausted after a workout and need some protein or for days when I don’t feel like cooking when I get home.

Tropical Smoothie Cafe – Menu with Prices – 922 S 10th St Suite 200, Waco

My family and I stopped by for smoothies last night and I have to say, I’m impressed by their service. You order right at the counter and they bring you your smoothie. The smoothies we received were huge and well worth it, we all really enjoyed what we got. I asked for mine without turbinado, and I loved the mellow berry and banana flavor that I got in my smoothie, it was perfect for me. Everything is made to-order and they can take anything out that you don’t like. We’re going to come back and perhaps actually try some of their food. Looks rather interesting.
