1st time LAST TIME. I never buy smoothies or lunch for myself and yesterday I decided to treat myself to a smoothie while I was in the area. When I picked it up, I drove off and started drinking it and thought it was great. But then something I drs k through the straw felt like a small toothpick and I pulled it out of my mouth. It looked like fresh coconut but it felt hard. I didn’t think anything of it and removed it from my mouth. Then I had another sip and found a smaller particle with the same appearance and texture. I removed it from my mouth and stopped drinking the smoothie immediately. When I got home and investigated the particle, it was a piece of plastic!!! I was so upset and threw out the smoothie while being worried about how many other pieces of plastic I sipped on that I didn’t feel! I will never be returning to this place again. Buyer’s beware.

This review is for the Danbury Location.
I have been going there 5-6 days a week for past 5 +/- months.
I had a routine. Order on the App. Coffee protein drink and either a wrap or salad.
Always greeted with a smile and thank you when I walked in.
The price was good for Always having consistant quality with the drink and food. Made the way I wanted it. Fresh, never wilted lettuce and ingredients.
I knew what I was getting and always the same.
I stopped going to other places around area because I was sick and tired of my 1/2hr lunch break eating garbage, never made the way I ordered it, or getting the wrong order in bag.
Unfortunately, my job is over in the area and I don’t live anywhere near there. So I just wanted to say Thank You, we had a good run……

Our favorite stop for something quick and healthy, with a welcoming, friendly atmosphere! The space is clean and kid friendly. The service is always friendly and helpful. Smoothies, bowls, and wraps are all delicious. Our server recommended a build your own bowl on our first visit and it was a hit for my picky eater. My go to order is the chicken caesar wrap and tropics smoothie. The bowls are all delicious and it's a good price for the portion. Each visit is always consistent and we always visit when we're nearby!

Absolutely terrible experience today My friends and kids were looking for a healthy option and place to meet together and complete a craft we had to get done. It would have taken the total of an hour max. We planned on purchasing several smoothies and bowls for the adults and kids knowing clearly we could not and never would bring outside food into the establishment. Apparently the owner saw this happening and was not approving therefore we were kicked out of the establishment. Myself and my family and friends will never be returning. It’s hard enough for moms out there to get time to do things for there kids. It’s hard finding places to gather Our kids were so excited to be in a cool place with yummy options to eat. What a disappointment for them

We had the worst experience. If the situation we were in was handle differently, we wouldn’t be writing this review.
This was my first time going with my kids. I had never heard of this place before and was excited to try some healthy items for my kids.
We had planned to meet a few moms and kids here to complete a craft. We prepped - bringing plastic coverings to ensure we didn’t get anything on their furniture, all with washable supplies and plenty of adult supervision. We understand there could have been some hesitation so we wanted to ensure we were respectful of their space.
We had asked the girls if it was ok - stating we were doing a craft while the kids would be having their smoothies and bowls. The girls looked unsure and called their manager/ owner. There was some confusion - stating it seems we were setting up a party. We made it VERY clear we were not setting up a party, nor bringing outside food. And let me be clear, we had already bought $40 or more worth of food/ drinks with more people coming.
The owner, Val, wanted to speak to someone. I answered politely and Val wanted clarification - which I would have happily provided IF Val had let me speak without talking over me. Val not once gave me a moment to explain what was going on, continuing to talk despite wanting clarification. I stated we were leaving and to not worry.
The 3 young girls working were nothing but sweet, polite, and kind. Understandable that they were put in the middle and this is not a reflection of them at all. The owner, Val, is all this review is a reflection of. If we had to opportunity to speak our side, and if it still was going to be an issue, then we would have understood.
But, for the pure fact that Val had done nothing but speak over me and not even want to get clarification was enough to lose my business, our family and friends business. One of our group owns a local company, another manages a local company, we all work locally with the community. We will be sharing our experience with others.
It’s a shame that a local business could have such a lack of customer service to handle situations such as these.

Not only are their smoothies and bowls delicious but their wraps are my favorite! They make their own caesar dressing and I’m obsessed! Highly recommend.
Susan Smith
High quality smoothies & refreshing fruit bowls with mixed in granola. The environment in which you can dine in is adorable, decked out with modern but classy tiny furniture. Along side with the fresh cold smoothies that will be the highlight of your day they also have these cute Boost Bowl stickers you can buy & take home as a souvenir! One of a kind fruity & smoothie shop in Newtown, CT! Come check it out, it is a must!

The seasonal special, the Jolly Gingerbread Bowl, was both delicious and unique. It would be great if nutritional information were provided for their menu items as well.
