Juice Press

I’ve been wondering for forever what the hype is (other than the usual cleanse/​raw/​whatevs hype of the day) about JP, especially since they’ve done such an awesome job with NYC expansion.
I had a «try use!» coupon… so I did!
The shop was quite clean. I like how they have the fridges stocked/arranged…the station for the made fresh smoothies seemed cool… soups sounded yummy enough… and no hassle about using the voucher.
So how’s this ish taste?!
I decided on the Watermelon Raw Juice Blend.
…I mean… it tastes like Watermelon juice… same as you’d get if you paid less than $ 8+ to buy some pre-​sliced ish in the grocery store (or from your local cart vendor)…just with some taste I couldn’t put my finger on (I presume it was the L. Bulgaricus).
Glad I got to try it, appreciate their structure and why people love them, but don’t see myself trying again (though I would recommend to anyone asking for good recommendations for raw options). I’ll just eat some yogurt, and call her a day.

Love this place and certainly will make it my go-​to whenever I am back in the city. Delicious blends of healthy, organic, and Whole 30 friendly options (yes, I was struggling through day 7 before Juice Press came to the rescue). I had the Fountain of Youth, which was delicious and filling. We also tried the F***KING Genius, which I also highly recommend.
Cool staff, quick service, and just a cool atmosphere. We were in and out in a few minutes with a tasty and healthy snack.

Great assortment of fresh and green juices. Tried the Simple Green because I don’t like a juice that’s too fruity. It hit the spot, and served as an A+ hangover cure

Gross. I got the mini glow juice cause I was sick. (Grapefruit, lemon, and orange) It’s 5.50 and disgusting. I heard that the other things aren’t good anyway + it’s overpriced.

Good spot for healthy smoothies and salads. No wonder they have like 15 locations all over the city. The staff is friendly at this location, its reasonably priced (juices are like $ ⁷⁄₈) and they have good variety. The place is small inside, more of a to-​go thing but there are a few tables. I like the unique combos of drinks they have — get the spicy lady!

I love them!!! 830 3^rd Ave location has full juice smoothie station and amazing people. Love them so much. They feed me at least once a week and treat me like a queen!
Try the blueberry acai bowl. It’s divine.

Don’t order a fresh blended smoothie here if you’re in a rush.
I came in around 8:50, no one was in line and ordered a smoothie. 10 minutes later more than 10 people grab bottle smoothies from the fridge, pay, and leave. Clearly they didn’t make a rookie move like I did here.
The cashier and the person making my smoothie were super nice, but it honestly doesn’t take 10 minutes to make a drink. They’re kinda disorganized back there.
The detox smoothie ($ 10) is delicious though, highly recommended.

Very nice staff, very good sound system, delicious smoothie! I had the Hawaiian — it was fresh, delicious, and extremely flavorful. While I waited, bopped along to some good upbeat songs. At $ 10 for a 7 oz. smoothie, this was quite pricey, but definitely delicious!

Their Acai Bowl has to be one of the nastiest things I’ve ever had.

Ordered from seamless from juice press for their clean green protein smoothie and the blueberry superbowl. Unfortunately they ran out the blueberry one so I substituted for the key lime one. Anyway I was not able to try it out as I got so stuffed after the smoothie — perfect for dinner and now I’m ready for workout!
Juice press now became my to-​go spot for light dinner!

Delicious, convenient, and unlike the McDonald’s next door, richly nourishing, energizing, HEALTHY food. While I agree that it is pricey, it’s only pricey compared with juicing at home, when you take into account all the supplements many of their juices have that would cost extra at similar shops. Their juices and smoothies are addictively tasty. While some foods I have tried were not my favorites, their soups, vegan/​gf desserts, and many of their salads are amazing. Just had a fantastic raw falafel for lunch — filling, without feeling weighted down or sleepy.

Least favorite of the smoothie/​juice chains because it’s so overpriced for the small size of the drink.
You could basically get the same drink, but for better value at liquiteria or juice generation.
Also, the consistency of the smoothies hasn’t been great. Some days will much more thin and watery than others.
If you’re on the wealthy-​I-​do-​not-​care side, by all means they’re great :)

I had a terrible experience on May 29^th with the store and customer service. I sent the following email to a contact at the corporate office with no response. I am so exhausted trying to be nice and putting effort into a company that just does not care about their consumers so I’m sharing my experience so you know what would happen if you ran into any problems with Juice Press:
I had such a terrible experience with Juice Press. I went to the new 830 3^rd Ave location last Friday for their 50% off event. One of the workers talked me into buying 5 items and said I could keep them at the store and pick it up at a later time. I paid for my items, wrote my name, phone number and the time I would be back to get the items. When I went back, no one had any idea where my items were kept and they kept me waiting for over 20 minutes (their solution was to stand there and wait to hear back from employees that were there earlier via text message) and all of the items I had purchased were sold out for the day. Throughout this process I said I was pressed for time, but I had 4 different people say, «I don’t know where it is, I wasn’t here at the time.» That’s not helpful at all. After the 20 minutes, Leah Landon said she’d make me the smoothies, which were part of my purchase. She made me 2 clean green proteins and 2 f@#$%$%^ing genius. I replaced the carrot juice with two kale chips. This whole ordeal took 30 minutes and I ended up missing my bus.
I was concerned when she handed me the 4 smoothies because they didn’t look anything like the product I had purchased. She said they were the same exact thing and there weren’t any issues with it (photo of my smoothies attached). When I tried the f^&%&%ing genius, the texture was completely different and not at all like what I had originally purchased. Same with the green protein. A day later, I opened my second f (*^%ing genius and it had become rancid and undrinkable. I threw it away.
I wrote a complaint that first evening because I was frustrated that they weren’t proactive about the situation at all or provide me anything for my time. I included a picture of my items as well as a video of the spoiled f (*^^%ing genius.
I followed up on my complaint yesterday morning and spoke with Cetura. I found out the person that I actually had issues with was the Customer Service Manager for all of Juice Press. She said she would speak to Leah to discuss having the item available to me for pick up that same day. She took down my phone number and said she’d call right back. I never got a call back. I replied to my complaint on their website and asked if I could pick it up on Friday. Nothing. I called and followed up with Cetura this morning. She told me I could go to the location and they would be ready for me.
I went to pick up my 5 juices and noticed they expired TOMORROW. All of them. I called and spoke with Cetura. She initially said someone could come and exchange my items for me. I asked what else could she do since I’ve been spending so much time on this matter due to their issues. She said she could give me 20%. I said I’d like to be reimbursed my total amount. She said she needed to ask Leah. She called me back and said because I purchased the items during a promotion, they are NOT going to send someone over to exchange the items for me and they are NOT going to refund me. The only thing I could do is go to the store for a refund or exchange, which means I would have to make my FOURTH trip to their store regarding the same exact purchase. So far, since I initially purchased my items, I have:
–Made 2 trips to the store
–Sent 3 emails
–Made 3 phone calls
I have never experienced such terrible customer service. I told her that made absolutely no sense that I, yet again, had to go out of my way to solve this problem. She put me on hold and offered me 20% of what I paid, but I still need to go to the store if I wanted to exchange my items.
UPDATE: I NEVER received my 20% refund and gave out my smoothies since I couldn’t finish FIVE in one day.

Lots of options and they tell you what is in everything plus they have a great grab-​and-​go fridge section. I liked the funny cards and bookmarks, etc. It’s expensive but hey it’s NYC and I’m using my expense account anyways. Great way to eat healthy on the go without my Blendtec. Very clean and staff was very nice and helpful.

Beautiful, clean, and bright space. This location will make custom smoothies for you which is awesome! The staff is really friendly and the samples are refrigerated. Welcome to the neighborhood Juice Press :)

Just wanted to share some feedback on my experience yesterday I was having a bad day and decided to take a walk i came across juice press which is so nice to have in the area I was helped by a young lady name trinete… I think that’s how you spell her name sorry if I’m wrong :) she was so lovely and helpful she took her time to tell me about the different juices you guys had and brighten up my day and gave me some advice on life can’t wait to visit again Kudos to you!

3.5÷5 for me here.
Great spot for coming to grab any kind of juice or smoothie you may need. The location is very clean and seems to have a good layout for a juice spot. There is some seating available inside if you want to use a computer or study as well.
The area definitely needed something like this for the lunch time rush and I will be sure to come back. Overall, comparative to other smoothies in the area, the prices are above average, so come prepared to pay but the quality of everything was great.
Enjoy.
