46 Best Juice Bars & Smoothies in Oakland

“The smoothie was delicious. Seriously good. Watched them slice open the fruit, juice it, and then mix it in. I had #11 ‘power horse’ which layers awesome flavors and a ginger kick that’s just right. It’s a local shop- the guys running it were very friendly, and it takes a little time- 10min ish- to make. And the price was very reasonable too. Dang.“

“My favorite spot for an early girl dinner. All the smoothies have hella protein and they don't use any ice. I always feel nourished after drinking them. Plus the owner Minni really cares about the community and gives 1% of sales back to a mutual aid causes every month.“

“The mixes are Great!! Smooth taste and great customer service 🙏🏿🖤“

“Great Natural Smoothies!“

“The owners and this store are so professional and outgoing. We were welcomed with a positive and kind energy. We got to try their vitamin C and pomegranate juice and they were both so fresh and delicious. They have almost everything from delicious pure natural fruit/veggie smoothies and juices to fruits/nuts and more! They appear to be family owned and a small business. Be sure to support them if you’re in the area!!!“

“If you’re searching for a health-minded refreshment spot that’s both community-oriented and irresistibly delicious, Zenful Juice in Oakland delivers in spades. This vibrant juice bar and café crafts tasty, raw, and organic beverages and snacks that not only nourish your body and mind—but also cater beautifully to diverse dietary lifestyles. Everything can be made gluten-free and vegan at no extra cost, which is such a thoughtful touch!
We were beyond thrilled (and SO grateful) to receive a generous donation of Zenful Juice drinks at our event. Straight-up, they were bright, fresh, and phenomenal. But when people started mixing them with sparkling water… wow. They became bubbly, refreshing, and downright addictive!
And just when we thought it couldn’t get better, Zenful Juice also gifted us chocolate-covered strawberries—white, dark, and milk chocolate, each wrapped around huge, perfectly ripe berries. Decadent, luscious, and unforgettable. Together, the drinks and treats elevated our fundraiser and helped make it truly special.
Working with Zenful Juice was a dream—their staff is friendly, attentive, and genuinely community-minded. I can’t wait to return as a patron and dive into more of their menu (the avocado toast is calling my name!).
Simply put, Zenful Juice is so much more than a juice bar. They’re a thoughtful community ally, offering creative, customizable, and nourishing delights—all delivered with warmth and care. Whether for events, a casual visit, or a wellness boost, they’re simply outstanding.“

“Fresh Beef.Patty was very good definitely worth the visit along with fresh made smoothie“

“Their “Classic Pineapple Coconut” is a FANTASTIC juice. Sugar bomb? Yes, of course. Super sweet? Yeah. But it’s so rich and thick without any funny ingredients it amazes me. It’d be the perfect mixer for a tropical cocktail and it’s a favorite treat after my long runs where 50g of sugar is helpful.“

“I’m touring a condo in Oakland for a client making an offer and I stop for a quick bite at a tiny sandwich place next to the Grand Lake Theater. OMG, Unbelievable sandwiches, smoked meats, homemade pickles, peppers🫑 and memorable pulled pork, etc. I hang out for a few minutes while Jerry makes my Cuban sandwich, and he has me try their smoked bacon, homemade meatballs, and more. Jerry’s the best and I love this place. Can’t wait to tell my client about it!! Check out Modigliani Cafe, next to the Grand Lake Theater. #modigliani #localbusiness #Oakland #localgem #restaurant #sandwich #grandlakedistrict #holeinthewall #localjoint #bayareafoodie #pamparkerproperties #realtor®“

“My daughter loves this place so much. The açaí bowl is incredible! She orders it often, and it never fails to brighten her day.

The online ordering lets her put it in and grab on the go. It feels healthy and satisfying and given the price of everything these days, it’s fair! Plus locally owned. Highly recommend.“

“Great burritos and service. The pozole (ask for toppings) was delicious. Mostly, I loved sitting at the counter and having a beautiful bay breeze hit my face while having lunch. Oakland as it is. Everyday life is romantic if you can stop and experience it.“

“Nice neighborhood no-frills cafe serving some standard options with a Vietnamese food / drink menu.

Ordered Vietnamese iced coffee, as one always should when available, and a croissant. Both delicious. Croissant large and buttery.

The prices are fair and the atmosphere is very pleasant and the spirit of Oakland.

Will definitely return to try vegetarian bahn mi.“

“Warm, inviting, clean, friendly staff & fast service. The manager was training the ladies on a new menu item (mozzarella bites) & he allowed me to try one. I immediately added the bites to my order because they were tasty & hot. My dragon fruit bowl did not disappoint either. I normally order an açaí bowl but I needed more vitamin c. The bowl was delicious, fresh ingredients & ready within 2 minutes.“

“😍Professional, courteous and friendly staff who took the time to explain the quality ingredients of our food and drink order. Thank you!“

“It is a family run business that takes care of you and feeds you good food. I enjoy mango smoothy and basically they are good for you. I think they have 5 smoothy combination and some other things to. Great sandwiches and begals and lots of really nice teas. Love the coffee and coffee based drinks to.“

“The classes are fun and energetic, the staff super nice, and I love getting to grab a healthy snack after class!“

“What Primavera does really well that lots of other sandwich shops overlook is their bread - it's fantastic here. The portions are generous and good selection, including delicious veggie options.

This isn't a fancy sandwich shop, it's a real-deal simple, satisfying meal at a fair price. Evidenced by the droves of students that frequent it. Support family owned businesses!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Zees Munchies Truck is an absolute gem! The crêpes are really, really good—perfectly made, flavorful, and loaded with toppings. They are very generous with portions, so you definitely get your money’s worth. Everything tastes fresh, rich, and satisfying without being overwhelming. Great flavors, great presentation, and friendly service. If you’re craving something sweet, this food truck is a must-try. I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Absolutely my favorite little coffee shop. It’s ran by the most lovely brown mamas who’s loving energy radiates into everything they do. Super queer friendly and the most amazing Chipotle Sandwich and Cafe de olla around.“

“I found this gem on my way to Vallejo and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! This has an Oakland vibe, the smoothie was all organic, the açai bowl was fresh, and I could tell they probably source their ingredients locally. I loved the music as well! Finally, the shop itself had a cozy vibe. Love this place and will be back!“

“it is small shop which touch screen kiosk to order near Oakland Chinatown. Practically you have to wait for the person in front of you finish their order before you get it. it might fit max 4 to 5 people. There are plenty option from the menu. You can choose sweet option.
The drink is pretty good. The price is reasonable.“

“Great place to go to grab something to eat. Either solo or with company. Very nice service and the food was outstanding! I got the breakfast burrito! They have parking in the back of the restaurant so you don't have to pay for meterd parking (if you don't want too).“

“their brown sugar milk tea was the best i ever had. their boba is amazing. they have vegan options for milk tea. the boss is super nice also.

update: their taro milk tea and pina colada smoothie is delicious as well according to my dad and bf. the brown sugar milk tea is still bomb and boba is fresh“

“Good croissant sandwiches. Yum Yum“

“This is a cafe, not a restaurant, I am not sure why Google is treating it like a restaurant. It is a very nice cafe with great coffee and home made pastries with smoothies and teas, with a very nice atmosphere. Check it out for yourself. Personally, I loved it.“

“im a brokeass student and everyday is a living hell for me because of the hotass weather plus my horrible grades😭😭

i went to QTea Bar for the first time and honestly - ITS NOT BAD FOR A PERSON WHO ONLY HAS $10 AT THE MOMENT LIKE ME.

basically, its a small place - however they offer a lot of items on their menu! the one on the picture is the Brown Sugar Milk Tea with Boba, which costed $7 dollars (I DROPPED MY JAW AT THE PRICE, BUT ITS FINE I GUESS?)

i chose Normal sweetness level and was expecting a nice sugar level, but was instantly kicked with a flavor that felt like 10 spoons of sugar on my mouth😭💔

i suggest letting it dilute for a little bit and drinking it, because the sugar really was kicking me 🫩

im used to the “normal” amount if sugar level since im a sugar-tooth, but if youre an adult, i suggest 50-75% sugar - also the toppings (boba, etc) are $0.50 — which is an okay price

the employees are super nice, they only had 2 people working at the time i was there - so i believe its a small business run by them

overall; great service, nice menu, small place but functional!

5/5 in my opinion, if i were bias, id give 3.5/5, but they were kind :)“

“Amazingly delicious Vietnamese food with lots of great options on the menu. The broth of the chicken pho is so flavorful and comes with lots of good stuff. Kids love the children’s Pho and the Banh Mi. Also tons of yummy drink options. Super nice staff too.“

“Great service Clean Food was amazing“

“I love Jamba Juice. I love the selection and the people who work here. It’s very clean and the staff are super polite. The customers are friendly here too. It’s a little expensive but they have such great smoothies. I started to make my own smoothies due to the price but I’ll always go for my favorite smoothie as a treat.“

“Your standard Jamba experience. Staff is nice and friendly. Everything's clean. Some seating available. No toilet but there is a Peets next door.Convenient location if you're at the redwood center to do shopping or pick up your medication or other activities here.“

“The young lady who helped me asked if today was my first time in. When I told her it was, she walked me through the menu and recommended a few things based on what I like. I ordered the Green RX. It was delicious! Clean, fast, friendly experience...I will be going back“

“Quick friendly customer service! My iced mocha was bomb!“

“My Mini pie was ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. Can I have these shipped? if so, please have someone reach out to me via messenger!“

“Nice place & delicious food 😋😋 🥘👍“

“My husband and I just spent two weeks visiting Oakland and we discovered Gelato Firenza (near Grand Lake Theate) one week into our trip. Once we did we made a special trip there every day, and one day even went twice! It’s the best gelato we’ve tasted anywhere, and we’ve been all over.

We first had gelato 40 years ago in Rome and were delighted as it became increasingly popular all over the world. We’ve tried it in many places, but this is our favorite.

We learned that it’s all natural, no additives, and made on the premises daily by the owner, who is so devoted to getting the flavors just right that she often spends four or more days perfecting them.

We love the fact that it’s not overly sweet, so you can really taste the underlying flavors (and feel good about it having less sugar). They’re very generous about allowing you to taste before ordering, and the prices are excellent.

Our favorites were: hazelnut, salted caramel, strawberry and rose (which was so unique and delicious!) Others we tasted and loved included Earl Grey, Matcha, coconut, almond, Dulce de Leche, and cookies and cream, but every flavor we tried was truly delicious.

For reference I have only written two other reviews in my life: one about my dog’s veterinarian, and one about a hotel in Thailand. But this gelato is so special and the owner so delightful I had to pass the word on.

We can’t wait to return to the Bay Area for more.“

“The chef Mike came out to meet us . The owners and staff were super friendly and attentive to our orders . The food was really fresh and the spices and flavor were amazing. I love the fact we had a option to create and build our own salad ...Welcome to Walnut Creek“

“All fresh ingredients are so good.Noce Customer Service #BLM“

“This place is sensational,fast, quick stress free service,always a pleasant peaceful atmosphere and easy going delightful and helpful staff all the time,my daughter's go to anytime we are taking walks around Lakeshore or shopping,☺️we will always enjoy this place as our #1,thank you!!!“

“The price and size were very reasonable, and employee's were super nice (although they asked if we were related to our cousin for some reason, kinda strange but friendly). The boba and teas were delicious, and they had plenty of yummy options to choose from. They also had some food options, although we didn't try the meat thing our cousin got, cause we're vegetarian. Made my day better, so glad I went. This place is so much better than Boba Guys, which is just down the street. Do not try to go there, it won't be good. great place to get boba at RareTea!“

“Sizzling � with blackened sauce was highly exceptional. This Moorish Asiatic shall return.“

“Soooo good. The mozzarella tomato basil sandwich was very good and the caramel macchiato was the best I've ever had. The beignets are big and definitely worth the price. And the crepes are amazinggggg. I will be back if I ever find myself in the Bay area again!“

“Refreshing tea. Good customer service. It's a great community of people.“
