    Did an order for pickup for my birthday reward, and apparently it was cancelled. Talked to manager and she was less than helpful telling me they couldn’t honor my free smoothie because I was 1 day late. The employees were not friendly at all, which shocked me because I come to this location a lot and never saw these particular girls, but they looked like a deer in headlights and wasn’t helpful or friendly. Most companies give you at least 30 days, or even a week but a day when I was dealing with an emergency and couldn’t pickup the same day. Let’s just say this Chick-Fil-A or Starbucks would never. I guess these greedy companies haven’t learned from the downfall of Target. I will never give this company any of my money. Do better, kindness goes a long way and great customer service!!!! You should try it !!!!

    I understand that stuff happens but the attitude of the staff was subpar to say the least as if I was causing an inconvenience because I was missing over HALF of my order. Then rather than hand me the bag the lady sits it on the counter barely makes eye contact and then just says sorry and walks away. That’s rude and I wasn’t being nasty at all. Just do better because you don’t know how the little things can impact a person’s day.

    We go out of our way to go to this Tropical Smoothie it’s super clean and everything is always delicious. Today they forgot the whey protein in my shake and the owner delivered a new smoothie to my house! Super impressive! I wouldn’t go anywhere else

    Today was the first time I have ever ordered from this location and it certainly the last. My food was hard as a rock and barely had and food inside of the tortilla even though I paid for extra bacon. I called the store to inform them I was met with defensive and rude behavior. Not once was an apology extended or resolution offered. Just a girl named Salem finally saying what do you want the owners number which she provided it then I hung up. It’s crazy how we buy the food that creates their paycheck but they treat us with disrespect
