49 Best Juice Bars & Smoothies in San Francisco

“Still the best açaí bowl I’ve ever had. I live nearby so I discovered it by random chance, but recently I’ve been trying açaí at other places around the city/while traveling out of town and nothing has come close despite me wanting to find something that comes close. The staff is so friendly too and they always bring it out super fast. The açaí base has the best texture (maybe they sweeten it maybe they mix in banana or cream but I personally am not looking for 100% açaí so I wouldn’t mind if they were) and the nut butters and granola are amazing.“

“This is so delicious!! It’s ginger makes it spicy, yet sweet. I wish I had known about this juice sooner, since I’m moving away from San Francisco:( Though the bottle is 9 oz. it’s still a substantial drink! So delicious and gives me energy!“

“Acai bowls are really tasty, although kind of expensive. That's SF for you! The ingredients seem high quality and the portions are generous so it's worth it as a treat. It would be nice if they have a couple small tables instead of no seating, but we typically take our bowls to duboce park.The guy who almost always seems to be working there is friendly, which I appreciate.

Vegetarian options: It's all smoothies and juices so unless there are any super surprises it should all be vegetarian and probably mostly vegan

Kid-friendliness: No kids menu, do your kids like smoothies and acai?“

“Fresh and yummy!“

“Great little ice cream shop, they have a great selection of ice creams, as well as hot and cold drinks. The ice creams are some of the best I have ever had, and they do a great hot fudge sundae. The service is great, prices are good and I would highly recommend a visit if you are in the Fishermans Wharf area of San Francisco.“

“store location is clean freshly made drinks and open sandwiches good corner location“

“Wonderful food and people. Thank you!“

“Best place to eat before and after workout. Juices helps in boosting our immune system, weight loss and multiple else factor.“

“Healthy & freshly pressed juices, cold brew/nitro coffee, nut mylks & Super power elixirs!!“

“The pure cane is sooooo goooood!“

“Excellent fresh, speedy, abundant and delicious service!☺️“

“The first time this happened, I assumed it might have been a mistake and didn’t mind.
However, after ordering an unsweetened matcha latte again and still finding it noticeably sweet, I felt frustrated.
I was told the sweetness came from the milk, but the level of sweetness didn’t seem consistent with milk alone.
My concern is less about taste and more about transparency—there’s no clear indication that “unsweetened” may still contain sugar.
If you’re sensitive to sugar or monitoring intake, I’d strongly recommend confirming the ingredients of the matcha powder before ordering.“

“My absolute go-to spot on campus!
Incredibly good food, everything's made fresh and they are so fast. I can really recommend the special sandwiches or wraps for a healthy and tasty lunch. Or a toasted bagel if ur rushing to class. And the açaí will make your day! Have never found a better one anywhere else. Also love the staff, they always make me smile.“

“The large açaí bowl is huge and keeps me full most of the day. The fruit is fresh and good quality.

This place has been slammed every time I come in but the employees are always working hard to keep up with orders without cutting corners or getting short with customers. If you’re in a rush, I recommend ordering ahead for pickup.

The shop is small, just big enough for people to order and stand waiting along the wall. It’s clean and the rainbow flags are a friendly touch.“

“We're in San Francisco fir a conference. Ate here everyday this week!“

“Never did I think I would pay this much for juice…but it’s not just juice! It’s Life! Between this and my Vertuo and Original Line Nespresso machines! I’m in heaven!“

“I came across here on a beautiful day and was craving for some ice cream. Was greeted and welcomed by one of their friendly staffs, she explained to me they offer ice cream and gelatos and the different flavors they carry. They also have many things to choose from, such as sundaes, milkshakes, boba drinks, smoothies, mangonadas, etc. It’s a cool little spot in the neighborhood that definitely attracts customers like myself. Definitely will be back!“

“Love all their products! I have been on the East Coast for the past 3 weeks...no Juice Shop has come close to Juice Shop SF in terms of quality and taste...can’t wait to get back to SF and Marin...💕💕💕“

“Got the bobo with a vegan dog and veganaise, mustard, mustard seeds and ketchup and it was so good! Next time I would likely add more condiments/veggies to balance out the bread as well. It’s a cute spot and love that you can substitute any hot dog for a vegan hot dog (just check that the other toppings are vegan).“

“Randomly stopped by this cafe while I was passing through Sunset. I ordered oolong black tea with boba and thought it was OK. Friend got popcorn chicken and that was pretty tasty. I liked
how the cafe space had two levels. Prices were very reasonable too. Parking was a bit tricky since it’s located in a neighborhood area.“

“prices seem a bit high but the portions are huge. Get the large for best value. Paying cash? click cred on the self checkout and you will then get a pop up to pay cash instead and save 5%“

“We enjoyed a few items. Tacos, Burritos, Sandwich, cheesecake and smoothies. All the food was served quickly despite being steady. All the food items were excellent especially the portobello tacos(Tuesday). The smoothie was delicious and cold and the cheesecake was vanilla and delicious. The staff were friendly, courteous, helpful and patient. Get your butts down here folks and Tip bigly. ✌️🌱🐾🎼💚🕺I“

“A hidden cafe gem in the Sunset/Parkside neighborhood serving authentic Guatemalan coffee.

Staff there are nice and friendly and the inside of the cafe is beautifully decorated and welcoming.

I recommend getting their banana cream latte, one of the best lattes I've had in all of SF. Great prices and quality for what you're getting.“

“Typical jamba juice experience but either there is a markup at this location or the cost of the drinks have gone up! 10$ for a medium smoothie is very high. May as well get a burrito. The drinks are good though and the staff was friendly and patient.“

“Great juices and the best almond milk around. Fair prices for all the juices and juice shots with very good daily specials, like 6 for $30.00, almost $3.00 off per almond milk. This is an excellent juice shop, unlike Juice Project on Chestnut Street, which is terrible and overpriced too.“

“Wonderful restaurant with many delicious options buffet style (shrimp salad and fried pork are especially good). Sadly it has been hounded by building management (which has unsuccessfully sued them multiple times to try to break the lease and redevelop the arcade) so it is great to support them.“

“BEST MONGONADAS IN THE BAY!!! Very clean establishment and super friendly staff.“

“​Yu's Cafe is a good spot for unique treats at very reasonable prices. It is located in Chinatown, beside a park. Their Coffee Cheese is absolutely delicious.

​The warm red bean dessert is another winner, delicious whether you order it hot or cold. The cafe uses an efficient touch screen ordering service, but the friendly staff are always there to provide warm service. Great value, great flavor!“

“Quaint little café with such amicable, welcoming staff. I love stopping by during my work break to grab lunch and enjoy a peaceful moment to myself. My go to orders are the Peanut Butter Lover and the chicken esfiha (hope I spelled that right!) both consistently delicious. Always a comforting spot in my day“

“Small restaurant with a good selection.It's less crowded compared to Cafe Rosso, which is close by, but way more busy. I recommend getting a street style taco plate. It costs about $10, but will cost $3 more if you choose beef. You get three tacos, rice, and beans, and some sauces. It's enough to fill you up if you're really hungry. In an earlier visit, I had a Taza original smoothie which cost $6.46 after tax. It tasted fruity and slightly bitter. There were also peanut butter smoothies. There were tables and chairs if you'd like to sit. If you're in a hurry and just want a drink, there's a drink fridge. Everything is pricier than from the cafes around SFSU, but seems to be not much better. I recommend sticking to their foods if you decide to spend money here.“

“The Longan Lime Green Tea is what you want :) It’s not a common combination I see which is why I ordered it - was pleasantly surprised! It’s slightly sweet yet refreshing.

Quiet for a Friday evening around 6pm but don’t let that turn you away! Staff is friendly. Cash and card accepted both at the kiosk and the counter register. Limited seating inside and no bathroom.“

“We’ve worked with Ruru Kitchen on several large catering orders for our office, and they’ve been an absolute dream to work with. The team is responsive, organized, and always on time. They make the entire process incredibly easy - from helping us plan a thoughtful, delicious menu that accommodates all dietary needs, to setting everything up beautifully on the day. Our employees always rave about the food, they are a huge hit every time. The personal touches really shine through, and they always work with us to stay within our budget. I’m so grateful for their partnership and can’t wait to work with them again for our next event!“

“💗 the chakra tonics, especially heart & solar plexus.“

“Everything pops of flavor. Only the freshest of organic fruits and greens 🥬 used!“

“Wow. What a delicious cake 🎂 we ordered. Everyone should try their desserts, they are absolutely amazing!“

“What an amazing day in SF. Just touched down after my long much needed vacation and thought I would reset for the week. Thankfully Pressed was open ( the only one) today. I always am excited to see such happy faces and they are always full of energy! I got a 6 bundle of juices and my regular go to açaí bowl. Thank you team for the consistent customer service.“

“we are from San Diego and found this place on yelp. The name itself peaked my interest. must say, sandwiches, spring rolls, Thai tea and Vietnamese coffee were to die for. will come back soon.“

“Best juices ever! I appreciate the free samples so I know what I want to buy.“

“One of my favorite cafés in all of California!!! … I have recently done a few profiles of it on my Instagram coffeehouse page: California Coffee Adventures!“

“Delicious tortas at reasonable prices! I especially love the salsa roja. I'm not sure what the other review was complaining about seating because there's three tables, bar seating, and public seating around the block.

Wheelchair accessibility: The door was propped open and the tables are at wheelchair height. No steps nor big ramps.“

“Surprise root canal procedure (the wife's) at the dentist next door meant I was stranded in the city, early. No time for coffee or a snack at home. So while wifey was in the chair, I was free to search out a cappuccino and breakfast. Cafe Encore totally scored. Excellent cappuccino, tasty bagel sandwich, charming/delightful owner. Highly recommended. Re the comments here about the longish wait, I say slow down, enjoy the ride. You won't regret Cafe Encore.“

“good food, good service and the staff is so cool!“

“Love no 4 and 5...not to sweet and they have nice pandan cake too.“

“Nice and relaxing place. Wish they have more food choices“

“Honestly the best boba spot in the city. It’s a nice little boba shop in the neighborhood and near the beach. Their boba actually tastes fresh and drinks are so good. The mango one tastes amazing and for the taro one they have actual taro with it! Great kind people/service and comfy environment. Support your local boba spot!“

“I luckily stumbled upon this spot hidden along the Geary corridor that offers delicious, comforting Brazilian bites like coxinha (those savory, teardrop-shaped croquettes filled with shredded chicken) right alongside your morning brew. The fresh acai bowls is the ideal kind of breakfast or afternoon pick-me-up that genuinely brightens my day. It adds such a unique and delightful twist to the usual coffee shop fare, making it a true culinary gem.

And of course, it wouldn't be a coffee shop review without mentioning the coffee itself! The cappuccinos get a special shout-out for being perfectly crafted – rich, smooth, and just what you need to kickstart your day or enjoy a quiet moment.

Beyond the food and drinks, what really comes through is the atmosphere. It's a place where you can genuinely relax, whether you're catching up with friends, getting some work done, or simply enjoying a moment of peace, Not just serving coffee and food; they're serving up a genuinely delightful experience. Definitely worth a visit!“

“Good food Hong Kong styles good prices great Asian drinks friendly service“
