Got there at 8:54 when they close at 9 and they were “closed”…. With a worker inside who gave us the evil eye.

Terrible customer service & they lock the door when they're too "busy" or understaffed then just ignore you at the door. Literally could see my mobile order ready for pick-up just sitting there then had to go sit in the drive-thru for 15 more minutes just to get my order & it not even be correct. Do yourself a favor & go to another location. First & last time visiting this one.

Got 2 smoothie bowls. The smoothie part was completely frozen and just had (not fresh) fruit thrown on top. The bowls were also set upside down in the bag so all the toppings and honey were all over the lids. Extremely disappointed and these were ABSOLUTELY not worth $20.

We bought two smoothies, both were less flavorful than other Tropical Smoothies and consistency was primarily ice.

As a restaurant owner who understands the importance of customer service and hospitality, I’m truly disappointed by the treatment I received today at Tropical Smoothie Café around 4:30 p.m.
I was met with rudeness and disrespect by the two employees working at the time something I’ve never experienced in all my years of dining and doing business. When I tried to place my order, I was told “no” because they didn't get my order at the screen, followed by dismissive behavior and laughter. That kind of response is not only unprofessional, but downright unacceptable.
To be clear: this isn't just about a smoothie. It's about how customers are treated. As someone who serves the public every day, I know firsthand how hard this industry can be but I also know that basic respect and decency should never be negotiable.
I will be sharing this incident across all my blogging and review platforms because businesses need to be held accountable especially when they fail their customers so blatantly.
To the management: I hope this reaches you, and I hope your team is reminded of what hospitality is supposed to mean no matter color, race, gender or religious beliefs.
