17 Best Juice Bars & Smoothies in Santa Monica

“I had such an amazing experience at Ubatuba Açaí! From the moment we arrived, everything felt welcoming and vibrant. The space itself is beautiful, super colorful, lively, and just one of those places that instantly puts you in a good mood. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, which makes it perfect whether you want to sit inside and relax or enjoy the fresh air outside.

Alfred, who helped us, was incredibly kind and attentive. He took the time to explain how everything works and walked us through all the base options they offer beyond just açaí, which I really appreciated.

I ordered the traditional açaí bowl with strawberries, peanut butter, toasted coconut, and paçoca. And as a Brazilian who truly loves açaí, I can confidently say it was a 10/10. Absolutely delicious. Every bite was perfect and I enjoyed it so much.

I also tried one of their empanadas, they have a great variety to choose from and I went with the cheeseburger one. It was amazing, super flavorful, and paired with the chimichurri sauce, it had the perfect finishing touch.

I left feeling happy and completely satisfied. It’s the kind of place that gives you a great overall experience, not just good food. I honestly can’t wait to come back for more!“

“My fiancée and I are fortunate enough to live a short walk away from Yagul and can’t get enough of it! Authentic and delicious Oaxacan food/drink (you literally cannot go wrong with anything on the menu) and the most wonderful and warm staff you’ll find in all of West LA. One of the true gems in our community.“

“The best breakfast spot we found! Just a short walk from the beach, with delicious, fresh food and very reasonable prices for the quality.

“Oh my gosh, is this my favorite place to get coffee in SM? Yes! So cute, great coffee and smoothies, great avacado and egg salad toasts. Great dog watching and people watching too. Easy to park, but pay the meter, the meter people make a sweep in the morning. Lovely place to sit, lots of shaded places.“

“Muy rico!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“Delicious fresh healthy with some organic ingredient options. This smoothie spot is a gem! If possible, go during the week to avoid long lines, but if no other option still highly recommend. Because everything is made fresh to order, remember to feed the meter to avoid a ticket.“

“I recently visited Jamba Juice in Santa Monica Blvd near the pier and overall, I had a decent experience. The service was okay, not outstanding, but also not terrible. The staff seemed a bit rushed and didn't have much time for small talk or extra conversation, but they were efficient in taking my order and making my drink.Speaking of the drinks, they were definitely the highlight of my visit. I tried a couple of different smoothies and they were all delicious. The ingredients tasted fresh and the flavors were well-balanced. I especially enjoyed the tropical flavors and the addition of fresh fruit in some of the drinks.Overall, while the service wasn't amazing, the drinks were definitely worth it. If you're looking for a tasty and refreshing smoothie, Jamba Juice is a good option.“

“I write for a music and coffee blog called Crooners In Coffeeshops, in which I interview local musicians at local coffeeshops. My writeup reflects the positive experience that I encountered at UnUrban Coffee House on our interview date. In a congested city like Los Angeles, it’s sometimes easier to go to the closest coffee chain just purely out of convenience and time. However, we end up losing the experience of stepping into a kooky hole-in-the-wall place that has clearly made customers happy for many years. UnUrban Coffee in Santa Monica is one of those hidden gems that can be the home for many fun experiences. Whether you’re stopping by to pick up your morning brew, reuniting with a long-time friend, or happen to be there to witness some type of cool live performance in their stage area, you’re sure to feel perfectly at home. The first thing that you’ll notice about UnUrban is that it’s heavily influenced by art, which is clearly showcased from its building artwork, outdoor furniture, and even its logo. Luckily, you get that same amount of quirkiness reflected when you step through its retro screen covered wooden doors as you are welcomed by bright colors infused everywhere you can possibly imagine, and the displaying of unique local artwork lining its walls for patrons to enjoy. And the more art-focused the shop is, at least for me, the more options there are for food and drink that meets everyone’s dietary restrictions or preferences. I took advantage of their specialty drink menu and went with an Earl Gray Tea Latte which specific name escapes me. Overall, art lovers and caffeine lovers alike will enjoy their time here.“

“This place really is sweet. I love the open space, the variety of drinks and homemade tropical syrups, and the food menu that is different enough from the food you can find at other farm-to-table cafes in Santa Monica that this one is worth the visit. The avo toast and breakfast sando are delicious.“

“Best meals ever in the town. Hope to visit again and again.Highly recommend.“

“BLUE VIBES. Amazing. It is blue and it is fantastic.“

“This is my go-to coffee shop for many years. What I like about this shop is that I can stay longer as much as I would like to and internet speed is so fast. This place became our hideout with my boyfriend. This place is my second home. The staff is all friendly, accommodating, and very welcoming. The prices are also affordable. Thank you!“
