Will never stray from the McCallum location again! Portion size was lackluster as my bowl was half full with barely any rice and hardly any topping, forgot multiple ingredients of my order and was greeted rather poorly upon entry. The girl at the counter added protein to my order without asking and I had to ask her to take it off as the $5 extra charge is not one I want. McCallum has never disappointed and will never go back to this location

My husband and I took a break for a couple years from Freshii because we had quite a few negative experiences. Decided to give it another shot. The lady working tonight was really friendly and accommodating. She made this a positive experience and my Buddha's Satay bowl was the best one I've ever had. She was awesome! Will be coming back again.

Definitely my favourite Freshii location. Everytime I come here I’m greeted with happy energy and a smile. Today, I was helped by Lovepreet, who created a bowl perfectly to my allergy restrictions and made sure my bowl was safe for me to eat. It’s very hard to find that care in food nowadays so I appreciate her help very much. Not only was she helpful with my bowl, she had great energy and was super kind. Fantastic customer service here. Can’t wait to come back

Very healthy option in the plaza with good taste. Dealt by this very polite employee Gurshit who helped with recommendations and loved the Tex mex bowl they have. Would definitely recommend

Not one to write negative reviews but this place inspired me. First off, food was meh, they burnt the bottom of the brown rice yet still used it in my bowl. Whatcom Rd location in Abbotsford had 15 minute store front parking and no where inside to eat for 3 people (2 stools at a bar counter) so took it back to our vehicle. Had been parked for maybe 12 minutes and finishing up when some guy comes out and starts recording our plate number and reporting us to have us towed (while we were in the vehicle). We were totally watching him and he was not making eye contact. Geez! Just supported your business and they want us gone ASAP. Yet they did nothing about the guy who parked to our left taking up 2 spots (guess that is ok, as long as it is under 15 minutes). Never going there again! Mucho burrito is WAY BETTER!!

How absolutely disappointing this restaurant has become. And not just the Whatcom location, the entire chain. Out of every 5 visits, you’ll have 1 good meal- if you are lucky. We’ve tried giving this place many chances because the potential for it to be incredible is there, but to no avail. Please don’t waste your money on this place. It’s usually a long wait for your food, the bowls come with either zero sauce or WAY too much, there’s never an in between. This time I ordered, waited 20 minutes for two bowls, and when we got home to eat them they were completely inedible. We always get the buddhas satay bowl, we used to add chicken but the prices went up so we scrapped that as it wasn’t worth it. The noodles were bone cold and undercooked, while the broccoli was so over cooked it was mashy and because it was so over-steamed it added a bunch of water to the bowl and it already had ZERO peanut sauce- like, none! So we paid 30 something odd dollars to get cold undercooked noodles with inedible veggies in a water sauce… if this is the kind of meal you’re looking for, you might as well save your money and have your toddler under the age of 5 whip you up something in the kitchen.

Got the Cobb salad with chicken. It was so bad, I didn't finish it. Definitely not "fresh." The chicken was questionable. Service is never friendly and overall looked bored. Overpriced and awful. The pink lemonade was good.

Incredibly disappointed in the consistency and quality of the food. We keep trying the Whatcom Freshii over and over, hoping that we will have a better experience, but once again, we are disgusted with our food. By the time we drove back to our hotel, the excessive amount of sauce had made a soup out of our bowls, with mushy rice at the bottom. The rubbery-gristle chicken was gag-worthy and the bowls were minimally filled (compared to other Freshii franchises). In addition, the bowls took over 15 minutes to make, and they clearly were not busy. One positive note, the 2 young women working are a HUGE improvement from the miserable staff that we became accustomed to. They were very friendly and polite, but clearly need further direction on making quality and consistent food items.
Was feeling the need for some healthy food. Went on to skip the dishes and found this place. I ordered 3 salads, 1 wrap and a bowl of soup. I would highly recommend that you dine in to this place than apposed to ordering take out. The reason for this, is that you can see the food being prepared and see if there are any issues with the food. I am in disbelief that the employee working here would put rotten, sour avocados in my salad as well as very obvious brown wilted lettuce. Like why would you serve that to another person? That was a terrible decision on their part. They even forgot to add the salad dressing on top of it all. I've now wasted my money and this cost me $94 total. I feel bad for the owner of this place for me having to leave this bad review, but I would suggest that they select their employees more carefully and do follow up visits to make sure they are not adding bad or spoiled vegetables to people's salad. I will never eat at this place again. The chopped leaf has never served me spoiled food! I will continue to order from them after this experience.

Good stop, friendly service. Nowhere to eat inside, but quick take out.

I go to freshii often and love all of the different bowls they have. The stuff at this location was so nice and helpful!It’s a great place for plant-based people or just for someone who looks for healthy choices!
