50 Best Juice Bars & Smoothies in Chicago

“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!“

“Excellent coffee and empanadas, delighted owners/staff, easy street parking. Support small and local!“

“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.“

“Bani Beets is a very nice juice restaurant that I experienced for the first time last week. Customer service was awesome black owned and very chill positive environment. The juice was delicious and açaí bowl was a pleasant surprise. I will definitely visit again. God bless“

“Really enjoyed this place! The pizza was fresh and delicious, with a crispy crust and plenty of toppings. The pasta was also very good and tasted homemade. Everything came out hot and the portions were a good size. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere was nice and relaxed. Definitely a place I’d come back to!“

“I’m so sorry i forget our servers name but she was so sweet and attentive and you could tell she really cares about the restaurant. We got the carnitas skillet and the chile rellano omelette and both were some of the best breakfasts I’ve had in the city. The carnitas were perfect and the omelette was fluffy and the sauce with the omelette was my FAV. when we left my partner said “this is our new breakfast spot” and I can’t wait to try lunch!“

“We ordered from the catering menu for our backyard birthday party and it was an absolute hit! We had Vegetable Fried Spring Rolls, Hawaiian Fried Rice, Huli Huli Chicken, Beef Lo Mein, and Vegetable Fried Rice. Everything was so delicious that there wasn’t a single bite left, and our guests couldn’t stop raving about it. Ordering was simple, and delivery was quick and convenient. Thank you for making our party a success!“

“Very friendly and excellent service, highly recommended.“

“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.“

“Such a great find! Healthy and Simple Juices offers a wide variety of drinks that are both tasty and good for you. I tried their watermelon juice, and it was so refreshing just what I needed on a hot day. The snacks are equally good, and the portion sizes are perfect for a quick bite. I’m already planning my next visit.“

“OMG! I have missed good take out since going vegan, and this place blew my mind! They had all the classic Chinese rake out dishes. Everything I got tasted exactly like what I remember prior to being vegan. I got sweet and sour chicken, vegan salt & pepper shrimp, wonton soup, and bean paste dessert rice balls. Everything was heavenly and wish I had stuff like this where I lived. I will definitely be back when I'm in the Chicago area again! Heck, I'd travel just for this food! I love that it's located in Chinatown too, which is a very cool area! The menu labeled what wasn't vegan/had egg & dairy.“

“I always go for the super greens refresher! So yummy and gives me the energy I need for on the go! 💪🏼🌱💦“

“Excelente Lugar y unos deluciosos panini mis hijos les encanta“

“It Was Good On A Cold Day“

“Very well thought out menu, great service, welcoming and pleasant ambience!“

“Thank you so much Cafe El Menson for your generous donation to my kindergarten classroom today. My students really enjoyed the Arroz con Gandules. I cannot thank you enough!“

“Crazy busy so make sure to get in line online. We showed up when it told us to and waited about 5 mins to be seated. Food was amazing; some of the items are insanely sweet and sugary but that’s what a lot of people like I guess. Coffee drinks were great and service was fast and friendly. I had the chicken and biscuits which was essentially a chicken patty on a biscuit, but it was perfectly crispy and the gravy is really good.“

“Great place! Staff is very helpful and knowledgeable!“

“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 🙌“

“Service was fast and associates were nice! My smoothie was super delicious and came out correctly!“

“Great neighborhood spot for delicious freshly made Italian Ice! Lots of interesting flavors and yummy ice cream too!“

“I stopped by earlier because I saw a picture of Dr. Sebi on the window and it caught my attention because Dr. Sebi really inspired me to loose weight and eat alkaline things instead of all that junk food i use to eat and the moment i came in this place i felt a great vibe and it smell great i had a mushroom coffee and some alkiline water and it was delicious i will continue to go back and try other things they have a lot of alkaline things that are good for the body and the owner and the rest of the crew in there are so friendly.“

“Nice folks with delicious coffee! Heard about this spot on the radio, would highly recommend!“

“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“

“very friendly customer service urban atmosphere and very good food“

“I really hope to see more of these pop up around town! My husband and I both agree on this place, the food is very healthy without compromising on taste. We've been ordering a turkey meatball build your own bowl from Uber eats, but I also really enjoyed the overnight oats and breakfast bowl with eggs and micro greens.“

“This place is really good! Superfoods, really authentic ingredients you can feel and a variety of avocado 🥑 toasts, bowls, superfood smoothies, snacks and juices. Kallie/Callie was phenomenal engaging and knowledgeable. I’ll be back.“

“Went for the first time yesterday, food was delicious and fresh! My smoothie was so good I drank it before I made it back to my car lol.“

“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!“

“Incredible food and really personable staff! Been putting smiles in food since 2012. These guys know what they’re doing!“

“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!“

“The employees were friendly, communicative and patient. For drinks, I tried an iced dragon rose and mango matcha. Both drinks were delicious and well balanced. The no tuna toastie came on a crunchy slice of toast, garnished with grape tomatoes and microgreens. It had the right amount of filling to bread in my opinion. Finally the tiramisu was light but sturdy with a nice bottom crust. My least favorite item was the praline, but mostly because it had a softer texture than what I was expecting. The flavors worked well together though.“

“excelente cafe chapaneco y sus tortas exquisitas!!“

“Amazing Products, Amazing Knowledge of It's Products. Customer service is phenomenal. And we will definitely be back without a doubt.“

“Ohhh sweet summer flavors and memories are found at Xurro! They have a great menu of many ways to get your sugar fix from sundaes to smoothies and seasonal flavors too. You can even get a variety of flavors in your ice cream base, vanilla or strawberry or Superman! It being my first time I decided on a classic sundae with churros and I was pleasantly surprised. The churros are crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside and have the perfect dusting of sugar. It was gone before I made it home! A little on the higher side for price but it’s fair for all that you get.“

“I really hope to see more of these pop up around town! My husband and I both agree on this place, the food is very healthy without compromising on taste. We've been ordering a turkey meatball build your own bowl from Uber eats, but I also really enjoyed the overnight oats and breakfast bowl with eggs and micro greens.“

“La Michoacana Fresa is the real deal for a sweet treat. I grabbed a couple of their Fresas con Crema paletas—strawberry chunks swirled in creamy goodness. Also tried the Arroz con Leche popsicle; it was like dessert in a bite. The place is clean, the staff is chill, and the flavors hit every time. Spent about $15, and it was worth every penny. Definitely coming back for more.“

“Delicious, fresh, reasonably priced. The best out of all home delivery prepared food options out there. Have great healthy options and more indulgent options like steak fajitas and burgers. Yum!“

“This place is always a winner with their delicious drinks! So unique and so satisfying! Love all the textures and combinations! I would try everything if I could!“
