“I recently visited Pure Greens and had an amazing experience! The staff was absolutely lovely and went above and beyond to assist me. They took the time to explain their menu, including their personal and customer favorites. I decided to try the purple haze smoothie, and let me tell you, it was not only delicious but also perfect for anyone looking to improve their skin and gut health. Additionally, they have a fun selection of wellness shots that I thoroughly enjoyed. I will definitely be recommending Pure Greens to all my friends in the city!“

“Love this place. The smoothies are a little more expensive than what you might get at other places but the ingredient quality is unmatched. You can really tell the fruit is all fresh.
About four seats at the bar inside and a couple of tables outside when the weather is warmer.“

“Pros:
Christian, the cashier who took my order was a delight.
The smoothie was delicious.
There was a lovely picture of an avocado on the wall.
Cons:
All of the seating was made exclusively from metal, which isn’t the most comfortable.“
“I love coming here after going to the gym across the street. They have the best protein smoothies for a great price. I love that they have the option to choose between pea and whey protein powder. It’s always clean and the service is always fast.“

“First let me say I’ve been to this location many times overall it’s good. But today was not so good. Long story short, it took 18mins to receive my smoothie and that’s after I brought their attention to it.
I got the Blimey Limey with vitamin C. Tastes great“
“Visiting from Columbus OH, my family and I stopped here as it’s a family go to at home and fits into our plant based (vegan) lifestyle. We had a pleasant experience with the customer service and atmosphere. Jack was very welcoming and handled our rather large order with ease and speed. We had 3 smoothies, 2 avocado toast and one oatmeal bowl. Only critique I have is the oatmeal was slightly more watery than I’m used to. Anthony the owner stopped in during our stay and witness the praise I gave Jack. Clean and well kept. I hope our 2 littles didn’t cause too much a ruckus 😊“

“The juices here are so fresh and full of flavor, you can really tell they use quality ingredients. I tried a couple of different blends and each one tasted clean and refreshing without being too sweet. The menu has a good variety, so it’s easy to find something that fits your mood or health goals. It’s a great spot if you’re looking for something healthy but still really satisfying. I’ll definitely be stopping by again to try more“

“Honestly this is the Best smoothie spot around town. The employees are super kind and respectful. The vibe is very cool and hip. The space is very clean and well lit. The prices of the drinks are modest. Every time I grab a smoothie from there I leave and feel happy.
P.S. Pineapple is better than mango.“

“I go to this location quiet often, but I was extremely disappointed as well as angry with what I saw today at this location. (3/9/25 at 5:35pm) The 3 customers that were ahead of me placed their orders were first timers I found out. The young lady that was fixing their smoothies dropped a cup on the floor, picked the cup up from the floor then sat the cup to the side. As she finished one smoothie she pulled a fresh cup, then the 2nd smoothie she proceeded to pour it in the cup that she picked up off the floor. I told the young lady that took my order, so she then pulled the young to the side to tell her that I saw what she did then she looks at me and says "I'm Sorry" (I said to her): What do mean you are sorry, why would you do that, and why are you giving that to her, you need to remake that smoothie ...and guess what she did not. I'm just want to make people aware: Watch the people that prepare your sandwiches/smoothies or anything of that sort. It's not their stuff, they're not paying for it so they don't care. That was just the epitome of nasty and extremely unsanitary. She didn't have on a Tropical Cafe shirt, she had on a gray shirt, she may have been new, I'm not sure but we need to learn to do better when working with the public. Don't do things to people that you don't want done to you!!!!! FYI...the name on the ticket was: Shelia G“

“Delicious food, excellent service, noisy outside (not Brother’s fault) but inside looked crowded and not as bright on this beautiful day.
Chicken and chorizo skillet was our favorite; thanks to the waitress who recommended we order the skillet version (instead of omelette version). The hash browns at the bottom had a nice crisp, and the dish itself had nice flavor - especially with the red hot sauce.
The steak fajita omelette was also good but humongous, so I didn’t even come close to finishing it (especially since I added a side of bacon).
Heads up: the cappuccino came with a sweet foam on top. Husband’s coffee was constantly refilled.
Service was friendly and attentive even though we were the only ones eating outside.
We were only visiting Chicago but would return to this restaurant. It feels like a local place (ChatGPT helped us find this gem, but I wrote this review myself :)“

“My mom was in little company of Mary hospital fighting cancer. She wanted me to go get her one of these smoothies everyday. She absolutely loved them. Everyone that came to see her knew to stop across the street and get her a smoothie 😂😂😂sometimes she would have 2 and 3 empty cups on the lil hospital table by the time I got there. lol Good times I miss my mom.“

“I've found my new go-to healthy spot in Chicago! This place is consistently amazing.
First off, the smoothies are the best in the city—so fresh, perfectly blended, and never overly sweet. My absolute favorite is the PB dream. The nutritious bowls are equally fantastic; hearty, delicious, and packed with fresh ingredients. All of them are soooo good!
The customer service here genuinely stands out. The staff is incredibly friendly, efficient, and knowledgeable about the menu. They are always happy to offer recommendations and help you find exactly what you need.
Despite being such high quality, the prices are incredibly reasonable, especially for downtown Chicago. You get a substantial portion and a great value for your money. It’s a total gem!
Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch, a post-workout drink, or a healthy snack, this spot is perfect. Highly recommended!“

“There is nobody in Chicago that puts better ingredients or more care into their products! If we had an honest government or an honest media, a place like this would have a line down the block throughout the entire "scamdemic" as health starts within. Despite all of the propaganda, what has always worked to maintain proper human health is proper diet, exercise, and lifestyle and those are still the most important and determinative factors. Nobody will EVER get enough jabs to give them perfect health, but choosing better foods that nourish and heal the body is a sure way to feel better one "shot of organic goodness" at a time. Vitamins C & D are what prevent colds and flus, load up and never worry about "side effects" when you will get actual benefits! Cheers and blessings!“

“I think the food and smoothies are consistent in flavor and quality. However, they are also consistently out of one or more empanada flavors, so I wish they had a method of showing an accurate menu instead of having to come and tell me that I have to choose a new flavor 5 minutes after paying. Service is slow, but that’s understandable considering there’s usually only one person working.“

Her name was Sarah B, bowls are absolutely delicious, beautifully made, good amount of extra Nutella, the açaí is a nice frozen smoothly flavor, the smoothie I had was fresh and filled with the right quantity and nicely blended. I definitely recommend this place, it was enjoyable to eat and they know how to make their food!❤️“

“As a satisfied customer, I'm thrilled to share my experience with The Movement Nutrition! Their nutritional beverages are a game-changer. I've tried several of their drinks and each one is not only incredibly delicious but also packed with high-quality, natural ingredients that make me feel energized and nourished. The Dragon fruit smoothie or Mangonada is my absolute favorite, and I love that it's a convenient and healthy option for busy days. The team at The Movement Nutrition is also fantastic. They are knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely passionate about helping people on their health journey. The business itself is clean, well-organized, and has a welcoming atmosphere. It's clear that they take great pride in their products and their customer service. If you're looking for a place that offers genuinely healthy, great-tasting nutritional drinks and cares about your well-being, look no further than The Movement Nutrition. I highly recommend them and will definitely be a repeat customer!“

“Shout-out to Martina at Nectar Coffee and Eatery for excellent customer service. My friend wasn’t enjoying their original drink, and Martina handled it with professionalism and kindness—she replaced it without any hesitation. The new beverage was great, and the whole experience reflected exactly what good customer service should be. Really appreciated her attitude and care. Will definitely be back.“
“After coming here consistently for about a year, I feel compelled to add a perspective that seems missing from many of the louder reviews.
What I see, week after week, is a group of young people in their 20s working incredibly hard to make this place clean, welcoming, and genuinely pleasant to be in. They move with focus, they’re kind under pressure, and they treat customers with respect even when that respect isn’t always returned (especially so!!!) That matters.
I’ve been met with warmth and professionalism so many times. Not once have I felt dismissed or rushed in a way that felt careless—only efficient, attentive, and human. These are not apathetic workers; they are diligent and trying their best in a fast-paced food service environment.
Reading through some of the negative reviews, it’s hard not to notice a pattern. Many sound less like thoughtful critiques and more like entitlement—people who believe money buys control over other human beings. There’s a certain kind of older, West Loop-nepotism energy that comes through: impatience, condescension, and zero appreciation for the labor happening right in front of them. It’s disheartening.
Anyone who has ever worked food service knows how demanding it is. The majority of the harshest complaints seem to come from people who have likely never had to do this kind of work themselves. These young employees remain composed and kind despite that imbalance, and that deserves recognition—not scorn.
I truly appreciate the Chicago team at SunLife Organics. They consistently bring a smile to my face, and they’re the reason I keep coming back—not despite them, but because of them. I hope their workplace and corporate leadership recognize how much they carry on their shoulders and choose to support them more openly. They deserve it.“

“Just went to a hidden neighborhood café and WOW… everything was surprisingly SO good! 🥯🥟🍓☕
We tried their smoothies, bagel sandwich, and empanadas — and every single thing was amazing. Their smoothies are made with real fruit, super fresh, healthy, and refreshing 🍓🍌🥭
The empanadas completely stole the show though! I brought my friend who has lived in this neighborhood for over 20 years, and she said these are the BEST empanadas she’s ever had in Chicago! The crust is unbelievably thin, crispy, and crunchy at the same time, and the filling is packed with flavor 🤤
I also loved their bagel sandwich — perfectly toasted, crunchy, crispy, and so well made. And honestly… the prices are unbelievably reasonable for the quality you get.
They even have their own locally roasted coffee beans! ☕ We’re huge coffee drinkers and always on the lookout for freshly roasted beans, so of course we had to grab two bags to take home. We can’t wait to try them!
We’re all about supporting local small businesses ❤️ My friend said she never even knew this place existed in her own neighborhood, and now she’s planning to bring all her friends and family here!
If you live in the neighborhood, please share this place and check them out! Small businesses like this truly put their heart into making great food for their customers 🙌“

“Today was my first time trying Smoothie King. I picked the Peanut Power Plus. When I substituted the nonfat milk (powder) for almond milk, I expressed my concern about my smoothie being thin/liquidity. The person who I worked with, I’m assuming the manager, assured me that it would still be thick or they’d be willing to remake it. He even added extra peanut butter. My smoothie was tasty. And although I only got the 20 oz, it was so filling, I could barely eat. 😂 That’s a good thing. Thanks for my smoothie but especially the excellent customer service.“
