Awesome staff, and the smoothie bowls are bomb! Try the junk bites and the chunky monkey parfait, and once you have the buttery recovery smoothie you'll be hooked. Super chill place to go and have a smoothie, juice, or relaxed bite to eat (PLENTY of cute and comfortable seating + nice decor). They have a food menu now, with spiralized pasta, pesto panini, PB&J, Buddha bowls. Go now.
This place is awesome... I first tried one of their fruit juice drinks and I immediately noticed how pretty felt the following morning, that I went back and ordered a smoothie. I am now hooked on this place.....and am making the transaction slowly to a plant based diet.
It is not easy to stay healthy while you are traveling, especially for business. You have limited time to have breakfast, lunch and dinner, and you can’t get home-cooked meal at hotel. So, I went to look for a healthy food/drink, and I found this spot.
Pretty nice space and setting for a place offering mainly juice and smoothies. Cute, cozy, and relaxing.
I didn’t quite know which one to order, but with a help from a helpful staff, I was able to make a decision easily. I ordered Clean Green. It was super refreshing and citrus-y. I was tasty, filling, and satisfying.
Since I liked their smoothies a lot, I went back for the second time. This time, I also got one of their shooters. I got a Gut Shot which was small but super powerful, lots of punch in that little shot.
For the smoothie, I chose Butter Recovery. It had very nice flavor or banana and peanut butter, but not overwhelming. Very thick but somehow velvety and creamy. It was really good!
The female staff that was here on the first visit was really sweet, she gave me great recommendations on the smoothie. She also gave me great recommendations on where to go eat around here. This was a great spot for when you need to get something healthy and tasty when you are busy on the road.
Truly delicious offerings. I went last weekend while in town and had the avocado toast. Scrumptious. Going back tomorrow morning before my flight for another. Sad that I don't have this place where I live.
Went there today for the second time. I should go more often. A great variety of smoothies. I love the Pear me Up! It has fennel which is unique and I hadn't seen that before. Their junk bites (healthy) are really delish! I can't wait for the food menu to launch. Definitely worth checking out if you are in the Downtown Long Beach area. And the people that work there are really pleasant. The ambiance is nice as well.
