Smoothie King

Fast and friendly service. The staff does not ignore the customers but engages in conversation while your smoothie is being made.
The smoothies are great too and you get good value for your $$

Great service and Smoothie King has the best smoothie of any brand.

Excellent service every time. The owner is their often and he keeps things running very well. I’ve been to other locations and the service was not this good. Very friendly staff. I go all the time.

Yummy! I have tried this location twice now, I’m new to the area. The selection is quite vast with a little something for everyone. Each time the employees are very nice, and seem to like their job. I do have to consider this a treat, due to the prices. I have paid about six bucks each time for a small, each time skipping the «boost» add in because it adds another dollar. The boosts are vitamins or protein blends to add more nutrition. I was pleased with the flavor and texture, just seem a bit sweet. But you have to consider, fruit and sherbet are quite sweet on their own. They also offer small packaged snacks (clif bars, protein cookies, pirates booty, etc) and health supplements. My only gripe is that you can’t add a tip when you pay with plastic, so bring a buck or two to leave a tip for great service.

The workers decided to start closing 30 minutes before that actual closing time. One girl was mopping and one girl was in the back stocking. There was a line of 7 people waiting in line. A total of 15 minutes went by before I was even address (mind you I was first in line). I was addressed only due to me asking them if they were going to help us & if they noticed we were standing there. I recommend you going 1 hour after they open & 1 hour before they close, because God forbid they actually work they’re posted hours.

First time here was today. I typically get protein smoothies from Whole Foods, but didn’t feel like driving the extra few miles, so I figured I’d give this place a shot. All I can say is yuck! The smoothie tasted horrible — a very distinctive chemical taste and watery. I won’t be back.

The prices are still way too high at this smoothie chain, but the $ 5 Friday banner caught my eyes as I was cruising past the place recently. All mediums are 5 bucks plus tax and normally they would be over $ 7 on most drinks. For $ 5 you can barely get a small on any other day. I had some tropical concoction with mango, papaya, sherbert and a banana of course. The smoothie had flavor, tasted good and refreshing and good quick service. Not opposed to this place, but likely only on Friday or until that deal expires.

I have been a long time patron of smoothie king and I have to say this one is by far the worst one that I have ever been to. The service was horrible and the drink that I ordered (Gladiator) was not made correctly. I would not visit this location ever again and I would not suggest that it to anyone either.

Great smoothies. Lots of options — almost too many to make a decision. But very tasty and great protein options.

I Love SMOOTHIE KING and wish we had one here in Tucson. Whenever I am in the Phoenix area, I always make it a priority to stop by at this location and refuel with a healthy treat. I also like the wide variety of smoothies to choose from. The store and customer service is always great and friendly! Keep up the great job, and sure to see you all soon!

I look forward to the days I get my Angel Food smoothie with no turbinado. Ever since I started drinking smoothie king I am unable to really enjoy jamba juice smoothies. Right up my alley.

I’ve been to this location a couple of times with an OK experience, but tonight we arrived 3 minutes before closing and the clerk had already turned off the open sign and locked the door. We tried to walk up to see if he would change his mind but he wouldn’t even look up for at least a minute, endlessly staring at the floor or at the walls in an attempt to avoid eye contact… low class move. I would have minded less had he simply acknowledged us and said «sorry we’re closed». It was almost closing time — I understand wanting to go home — but regardless it’s not the way to treat customers.
I have contacted what I presume is Smoothie King management (Greg) about this as well.

I love this place. All the shakes are geared towards being healthy unlike Jamba Juice. And many contain 300 or less calories in the 20 oz size. The staff was great in making suggestions and explaining their supplement/​protein options.
I ordered the Island Impact which already comes with protein in it, and it was delicious. Will be back again next time I’m in town for sure!

I stopped in because of a coupon offer and had wanted to try them out for awhile. I was pleased to see that there were plenty of menu items and lots of types of smoothies. However, all the good things about this place were wiped out for me because of the actions of one of the employees.
After placing my order and paying, I watched an employee make my smoothie. As my drink was blending, she reached for an empty cup in preparation for the transfer but she missed and knocked it onto the ground. Instead of throwing that cup away and getting a new one, she bent down, picked the cup off the ground, proceeded to transfer my smoothie from the blender INTO THE DIRTY CUP, then handed it to me like there wasn’t anything wrong.
I called her on it, and she proceeded to make me a new smoothie, albeit reluctantly, because she was clearly agitated that I asked for a replacement.
It’s too bad really, because I couldn’t enjoy my smoothie without freaking out just a little bit with every sip. You’d think it would be common sense move to replace the soiled cup but if that employee didn’t care that I saw her drop then reuse my cup, who knows what other unsanitary practices they use out of sight when they prep the other foods they sell here?
*NOTE*
This experience happened to me on April 4, 2012, and I have not returned to the business. This employee may already be long gone…

The guys working here seemed very bothered I wanted to purchase a smoothie. Very unfriendly!

I am not a huge fan of smoothie king as I am a total Jamba Juice girl, so the only reason that I give them 5 stars is because I was AMAZED by the customer service I received this morning.
We went in there earlier this week, and I was casually chatting with my boss about not liking papaya etc while the lady was making my smoothie. This morning when we came in, the same lady was there and she remembered all of my comments from earlier in the week (even though I wasn’t addressing them to her) and offered to make me a custom smoothie with mango juice instead of papaya and no dairy or protein!
My custom smoothie turned out super yummy! I wish I knew her name so that I could suggest she get a promotion because she is truly an awesome employee!

If you want to be treated rude by the staff and enjoy sub par smoothies then this is the place for you. I love smoothies and had never been to a Smoothie King and was in the area so decided to give it a try. Big Mistake! When I entered the store there was an older man towards the front and a younger girl making smoothies towards the back. The place only had about two people in it. No greeting given by the older man at the front. The menu here is very, very hard to decipher. The menu board is so discombobulated you don’t know what end is up. It lists the name of the smoothie for example, «Cranberry Cooler» or «Immune Builder» but they don’t list what is in these smoothies. You have to look at a «to-​go» menu to have the smoothie ingredients explained. I asked the older man what was in the «electrolyte mix» (as this was listed as part of the ingredients in a smoothie I was considering) his answer to me was «ARE YOU KIDDING?» «You have electrolytes in your body. They are minerals» I have no idea why I even continued with my order after this rude treatment. Anyway, I ordered a «Light and Fluffy» smoothie. Basic ingredients; OJ, Banana, Strawberry. It was average at best. On the expensive side too. Over $ 5.00 for a small. Sorry for the long review but this place deserves only one star.

I used to love this place back in high school, so I decided to drop in for a delicious protein smoothie.
I ordered a medium high protein smoothie, and was absolutely salivating over the upcoming flavor as I hadn’t eaten all day.
Well my first disappointment came with the price, a whopping $ 10.00 for a d*mn medium smoothie! Holy cow! What are they adding to this to make it so god-​like you ask? I have no idea, my only add on was friggin peanut butter, which was only a small dollop.
My second complaint was the service, although it wasn’t awful, it certainly didn’t entice me to ever want to return.
I think I will stick with One Stop Nutrition, I can get the same exact smoothie, with peanut butter, for $ 5.00.
I’m not trying to bring the gavel down on this place, but they certainly need to double check their prices, I definitely don’t taste the quality or see the justification in charging an arm and a leg.

Poor Smoothie King… it looks like you’re not exactly everyone’s cup of tea but I still heart you. I have grown up on smoothies from Jamba Juice during my junior high days, Blendz during high school and Juice It Up throughout college and post grad. While almost any smoothie can make me a happy camper I would prefer Smoothie King if possible. While it is a bit pricey I enjoy the texture of smoothies here more than others. Jamba smoothies are icier than I’d like and Juice It Up is more creamy. Smoothie King is more about the fruit and that’s particularly refreshing. Each time I have gone the service has been great and we watched our smoothies being made with no problems or concerns.

Well i have definitely had better smoothie’s and the Staff while friendly seemed a bit stressed. The guy making the smoothies i think owned the franchise and the girl that was working for him didn’t really seem interested in selling smoothies as she was trying to sell other products in the store. I had a strawberry malt… which was not bad which is why i did give it 3 stars rather than 2. My wife had the Pineapple, Strawberry, Kiwi, with protein smoothie. I tried it and i didn’t really think any protein was in it… but wife did and she enjoyed and i guess that is all that matters… LOL
The other major problem was the price… a small cost about 5.00 for my malt and the smoothie was close to 4 bucks. You can get a large one for that price at Jamba Juice and while the products at Smoothie King are all-​natural that is still expensive. So if you want a decent smoothie for the price go to Jamba Juice… if you want all natural, expensive but decent smoothies then go to Smoothie King. Eat, Drink and be Merry my friends!!!
