I love them so much, the food is always good and so are the smoothies, but recently they went above and beyond.
I put in an order a bit too early for everyone involved, both the employees and I (whoops) and couldn't pick it up until 2 hours later- when I apologized for the error and asked if it was possible if they could remake it, Brittany said it was and did make it all, making sure my flatbread and smoothie were nice and fresh when I came in 🥹 Thank you so much Brittany!

I always use my phone to order here. One day I went through drive thru and was told I had to come inside to get my order? I’ve been going to this location for a few years now and I’ve never been told to go inside. It’s inconvenient and makes me wonder why they even have a drive thru?
Please go back to how yall were just 6 months ago!

I went yesterday and order the exact same things today. They did great. Different people though. So first when I got here today it was only one young lady there and she was working solo by herself so I wasn't in a rush at all but then when the second lady got there to help her she literally threw my sandwich together and just tossed it on the counter at me so I checked the pesto chicken sandwich and it was a sloppy mess she barely put the food in there it was basically just bread. So the young lady who's there manning the place by herself I have no issue with her but that lady who made those sandwiches she did a trash job and she had just got there. Just threw it on the counter and walked off.

This is the third time I’ve been here when they are out of a basic ingredient. Bananas, whey protein, açaí. I would appreciate it if they looked into better inventory management. The folks are friendly though!
