5 Best Juice Bars & Smoothies near Joliet

“Tropical Smoothie Cafe is one of my favorite spots not just for the delicious smoothies and fresh food, but for the great team running the show. Every time I walk in, I’m greeted with a smile. You can tell they truly care about their customers. Great spot! Highly recommend!“

“Let me just say this right here: Smoothie King is truly the best in the business, and I don’t hand out compliments lightly. I’m an older Black woman who has lived long enough to know good service when I see it, and baby, they delivered it from the moment I walked through that door.
First thing I noticed? Clean. Clean as a whistle. Floors shining, counters spotless, everything in its place. And those young folks behind the counter greeted me with smiles so warm I thought they must’ve known me from somewhere. That’s the kind of hospitality I grew up with — the kind you don’t always see anymore.
Now let me emphasize something that absolutely impressed me: those employees kept their gloves on the entire time. Not halfway through, not “oops I forgot,” not switching them out only when somebody’s watching — no ma’am. They had those gloves on from the moment they stepped toward the blenders to the moment they handed me my drink. I watched them like a hawk (because you know sometimes you just have to), and every single one of them handled the food with care, cleanliness, and professionalism. That alone deserves five stars.
And when I ordered my smoothie? They didn’t rush me, didn’t give me attitude, didn’t stare at me like I was slowing up their day. They explained every flavor, answered my questions, and even suggested a blend that ended up being so delicious I almost turned right back around to order another.
The smoothie was fresh, smooth, full of flavor, and made exactly the way I asked — not too thick, not too sweet, just perfect. And they made it with those gloves on the whole time. I’m gonna say it again because it mattered to me: they kept those gloves on the entire time.
I left that place feeling respected, appreciated, and well taken care of. You don’t get that everywhere. Smoothie King has earned my loyalty, and I’ll be telling everybody — my friends, my church ladies, my grandbabies — that this is the place to go.
Five stars, and if I could give more, I sure would.“

“Luv going here because their healthy options are unique and tasty. Their food that may have some sugar in the ingredients; tastes awesome.

Prices are competitive; actually better than most places.

Everything here is good.“

“First of all, it seems the busier they are, the faster the line moves. A few weeks ago I had to leave after ten minutes. I was the second car in line. The entire time.

The coffee is good, don't get me wrong, but it seems to me they purposefully take longer when they don't have a line, because the line is their advertising.

Why do I think their line is their advertising? Because I've been the seventh car multiple times, and I'll have coffee in my hand in five minutes.

The drive thru and parking lot have been a problem. For a business that seems to use having a line as their calling card for attracting business, one would think their parking lot would be set up to contain a line of cars. Instead, the drive thru is set up to spill out onto the street. Seriously, the building could.. And should.. Be turned 180° on the property; so cars can wrap counter-clockwise, get their coffee on the East end of the building, and exit. But.. Blocking the traffic is more than likely on purpose, so everybody sees the line and gets FOMO and stops to buy a $7 coffee.

A $7 coffee that honestly is pretty good.“

“My first time trying and it was so delicious I had to go back and get a second one!“
