I do like that juice ranch Café sells organic food and drinks, which taste very good. HOWEVER… to my horror, I saw plastic cutting boards which are known worldwide to leach micro plastics into food, and therefore chemicals, which defeats the purpose of an organic restaurant. If they switched to using glue free wooden cutting boards, they would have my full support.

We were walking by and found this little gem. I got the strawberry and cream smoothie. It was DELICIOUS! I don't remember what was in there, but it helps with immunity, lol. My sister also got The Hulk smoothie, also, very good. And a vitamin juice.

After giving a 1 star review at the Juice Ranch's Montecito location and receiving a very harsh retort from the owner's claiming I intended to do harm and that my frustrations were misplaced (versus trying to see it from the perspective of someone who is poor) I decided to give them another fair shot. This time I chose the closer venue. I was pleasantly surprised to see that they have discount half off juices. Also when I asked the person working if they had all the half-off juices in stock they responded "Yes" with a bit of frustration in their voice saying if its on the board we have it in stock (OK I can read but that was not what I was asking - I was treated as if me asking that was a dumb question). I then ordered the avocado toast two Johny 5s and a Cashew Milk. Um, guess what - they were out of the Johnny 5 and avocado toast. I guess my dumb question was not so dumb. The person could have been more gracious when I asked, but they weren't. They did profusely apologize. And after their original errant response, they offered an excuse as to why their board was not up to date (haha) So be it. Such is life. Back to the juice. I ended up getting three. I have to say if all the juices were as good as Mermaid and always $5 (or even up to $7), I would give 5 stars. However, the CashewMilk was fair about 4 out of 5 (and I am rounding up since I am not a fan of nut milks but wanted to try it). The Yoda or Yoga juice tasted like what the owners might call flavored water. It was lackluster and really did taste like half juice added to half water. The highlight of the experience was the mermaid juice - it is excellent and the half off price point is so very great. For that juice alone rounds up their score from 1 to 3. Cute location. And again, this was not fresh pressed but recently pressed. And for the record, I used to work my own all natural farm, I have done my own fresh pressed juices, and I also worked with a quaker family in Michigan in a community justice oriented CSA (Sandhill CSA), so I know the difficulty and challenges of the food system we live within. They are doing a fair job. Could be better taste wise, service wise, and logistically. One of the pros (in my opinion) of fresh juice is getting to see, smell, and hear it being juiced. This feels like a stripped down experience - and for that I could just get pre-made juice for much, much less.To the owners: feel free to attack me for my perspective and opinion and put me down. Or instead embrace it. Maybe if you did that, you might figure out how to get closer to 5 stars across the board.

I just went in and got the avocado toast, mermaid juice and immunity shot. The avo toast was genuinely the best one i’ve ever had. I also love the atmosphere and the service is amazing!!

Great gem of a find!! Was looking for a smoothie and everything around looked basic and low quality. So happy this place exists. We got the mint smoothie, avocado toast and bagel sandwich but asked for it on gluten free bread. All items were AMAZING. The gf bread is excellent. I even went and found the bakery they get it from nearby and bought some. Traveling in Santa Barbra from OC and will be eating this everyday hands down.

I had the mint chip smoothie and it was totally delicious. The staff were friendly and the menu had a great range of smoothies and juices. Definitely will be back.Highly recommend for a healthy, delicious pit stop.

Amazing juices--the real deal! I only wish I could afford to get juice here more often (student budget!). I go here when I need it, especially when I am feeling under the weather... when I do it's worth it.

Stayed in Santa Barbara for a week, after lots of traveling it was really nice to be able to walk down the street to the juice ranch and get immunity shots and fresh smoothies! Started our mornings perfect while on vacation!

Hello there

I was expecting fresh juice, instead received a prebottled juice. Very expensive not fresh juice
