    Service is EXTREMELY slow. A note to ownership/management. Mornings are busy. Nobody wants to wait 10 minutes for a smoothie. Please make sure there is enough coverage so that people on the way to work and school aren't waiting extraordinarily long. Ridiculous.

    Ordered the Bahama Bowl 3/5 the base was a little freezer burnt & the pineapples was definitely from the can :/ I’d prefer FRESH FRUIT IF IM SPENDING MY MONEY

    I love me a good fruit smoothie. The food options are small but filling, fresh and you feel healthier eating it. My only draw back when ordering delivery through the app, there's no precautions for the establishment to cover your drinks or make it so the delivery driver can't tamper or mess with it. It didn't happen to me but, in this day and age, I need some precautions to be taken.

    Went through the drive thru today and the young man that took my order was polite & the young man that handed me my smoothie was also nice but the 2 young ladies at the window (one took my payment and the other just gave me my food) didn’t smile & didn’t speak. They seemed miserable to be there. Going to a place of business and not being greeted properly is very upsetting, it doesn’t matter if you’re having a bad day, you shouldn’t take it out on your costumers.
