They force you to get a side with your order and then charge you for it, I would avoid. Scummy practice to do so

The worst acai bowl I’ve ever had. Okay, probably not the worst because I still ate it. The fruits were delicious. I will say that the texture of their acai is chunky and a bit hard. It’s not nice and smooth compared to other acai bowls I’ve had in the past. Also, the employee who took our order is lacking in customer service.

Everything about this place is good, expect the smoothies. Tastes like water a powder. Also it costs 10$ for a cup. I went there twice. My first time, and my last time.

I’ve been to multiple Tropical Smoothie Cafe establishments and this one is by far the slowest!! It’s utterly ridiculous how long these wait times are. If you see more than two cars in the drive thru expect at least a 20 minute wait. Someone needs to be held accountable for this inefficiency.

My favorite tropical smoothie location. A bit understaffed, so hope that changes soon. Drive-thru gets way too long for being such a small location. Otherwise food is perfect every time! Just have to be patient.

Staff is super friendly and so is the manager! Food and smoothies are very good and made fresh for every order! Highly recommend?Vegetarian options: They have plant based chicken and everything is made fresh so you can replace any meat from any dish. Also their Hummus veggie wrap is vegetarian.Dietary restrictions: They have an option for splenda and different vitamins/supplements for the smoothies.Kid-friendliness: They have 3 12 oz kid smoothie options which is very convenient.

Workers were not really friendly. Smelled like rotten fruit and deadly unclean in there. I wanted to get out as soon as possible and lost my appetite.

Absolutely rude staff, they had an horrible attitude and sounded like they were mad for anybody even coming inside. Behind the counter looked dirty, like it hadn’t been cleaned once all day, lobby was borderline gross.

The manager was rude to the customers. Her name is Natalie. My friend Jakob got fired for no reason and she doesn’t do any work she’s lazy and got promoted to a better position which is unfair. Don’t come to this place if you see Natalie she’s rude and doesn’t have any manners.
