    Love their mocha madness & their Peanut butter cup smoothies. Their bacon, ranch flat bread sandwich is also yummy. Their only thing that needs improvement was their bathroom was unkept not clean, no toilet paper. Cleanliness is very important and should be a priority.

    Ordered a smoothie online. No one greeted me upon entering. I sat there while a young lady that was covering the drive thru walked around without acknowledging me. Another lady came from the back and still no greeting. Eventually she approached me and I told her I had an online order. Received my smoothie and it was overly sweet even though I requested half turbinado and the pea protein left a gritty texture to the smoothie. I won’t be returning.

    The food is mid, and it always feels hastily put together. They mess up almost everything and never give you the components of your meal at the same time. Every time I eat here my will to live weakens, but I have tried every item on their menu and will probablygo again tomorrow. 4/5.

    This is worst compared to the one on 8mile by Ryan. I didn’t think you can make a smoothie nasty but 12 mile and John R accomplished that I order chia banana boost with strawberries no peanut butter they didn’t put all the ingredients in this smoothie it was water down so much. I guest when you have their coupon you get a bad smoothie but they promote it. That smoothie was trash and it went in the trash. I would send no one to this one at all.
