Juice Bar

This place is hidden inside a pizza joint, inside a hotel parking lot, off the highway. I was really excited to stop by. The menu of smoothies was extensive. The girl working the counter was super nice. I ordered my smoothie. She put all the ingredients in the blender. The blender sounded like a damn wood chipper. It almost blew out my eardrums. After a few minutes, she took the top off, and started going to town, Norman Bates style, on my smoothie with a spoon. Clearly, it wasn’t working. She went back to blend mode. Then back to Bates, then blend, then Bates. After a while, the girl, still super polite, handed me my smoothie. It was more a cup of a solid, ice cream substance, than a smoothie. It was decent, but not a smoothie.

Although the gal working the juice bar was so nice, sadly this place disappointed. I don’t think she knew quite how to make a smoothie and I don’t think she was provided the best resources to make one. The blenders here are small and not professional grade making the whole experience slow, loud and not tasty.
We went with two cocoa protein smoothies and it took a bit longer than expected. The smoothies are made with frozen fruit (bananas in this case) and what we ultimately ended up with were flavorless whipped ice. We ultimately needed spoons. I did somewhat complain and she was nice enough to discount the smoothies a few bucks, but they just weren’t good.
Maybe the juices are a better option? Or maybe only making one smoothie at a time would have been a better option? Not quite sure where the problem lays, but I wouldn’t return for a smoothie again.

Back at my favorite place for juice!!! Place is spotless and again people are so nice. Disagree with woman that wrote tip… smoothies are less expensive than smoothie king… jamba juice AND are fresher and wonderful!
