These 2 men are the rudest people I had to deal with in a retail chain. If you hate it so much you should get a different job

I have never had NASTY food from a tropical smoothie cafe. First time trying this one and my sandwich was just pitiful barely any turkey on it and overall not good. Not even sure how my smoothie was nasty if you follow a worldwide recipe for it. Don’t go to this one ever.

Happy Hour is between 2pm to 4pm. However when I called and asked about it they hung up purposely! I called back and they finally admitted that I was correct Happy Hour is between 2p and 4p however when I asked about prices and specific drinks they hung up again! I would never recommend!

Order was taken quickly person assisting was nice. Smoothie was delicious. The employees may seem a little stand-offish but they are focused on getting your order completed quickly.
