eat-a peach juice was amazing. Food looked so healthy and good but it is just sad to see how much they sell it. It is sad to see that to feed yourself correctly and with fresh product you have to put $10.00 for a juice. I believe juice are like cocktails nowadays.
This is the perfect place to visit after a 90 minute bikram class, and thank god they're right off my stop! I haven't tried their eats, but the juices, from berry to milky are ridiculous. I love this place
My coworker pointed me in the direction of this place because
1. I'm following a Paleo regiment
2. I like raw juices
3. His sister owns the joint.
On this particular visit, after breakfast, my bf and I were craving something green and wandered over to grass roots. There were maybe 3 people waiting for drinks at the time but after I placed my order there were at least 10 people waiting after me. I ordered the booster with Echinacea and B12 for myself and the cricket for my boyfriend. We waited for 20 minutes to get our juices.
I understand quality takes time but they were definitely understaffed and servings drinks out of order. A few who came in after me got their drinks faster than I did. It was also a little confusing when they called out drink names. Two people went for the same cup… That kind of confusion. Maybe they can start putting customers names on the cup?
Luckily, I was in no hurry to get my juice. I took in the atmosphere and really like what I see. The business is still new so I'm sure they are working out a lot of the kinks.
Our juice was great and I definitely will come back. There are still a few things on the menu I need to try.
(Sabrina, would love to meet you one of these days. I work with Diego and he sent me your way)
My sister and I needed a detox after a long Labor Day weekend of overindulging so we stopped by the juicery before I headed to the airport.
Yay for a business that was open on Labor Day! You'd be surprised how many stores were closed in the Williamsburg area.
We ordered 2 chuck berry smoothies, a eat a peach smoothie and a ginger + juice drink for the boyfriend. My boyfriend thought his juice was too gingery so I switched mine with his since I love ginger.
The prices were reasonable and everything was made fresh. They had a fridge to the side filled with fresh juices that you could pick up and go. Great for on-the-go people!
I do wish their menu was a bit more extensive since they only have a few options from each category. You could probably customize your own preference but it seems they are still working out the kinks in the business.
When I was there, the manager/owner(?) was giving instructions to the staff on how some drinks weren't filled enough.
A great addition to the neighborhood!
I juice on my own daily but I love to get my more filling smoothies from here. My favorite is Best Breakfast – can't remember all the ingredients but soooooo delish -. My runner up is Power of Cacao, will satisfy the craziest of chocolate cravings. I have tried some of the sandwiches and snacks also good. Some things are a bit pricey but all good. Fresh, made to order, minimal waiting time and place alway smells great.
Decent juice and smoothies; expensive prices.
I was super excited to see that a health spot was nearby, so I decided to give this place a try for breakfast! They offer a variety of fresh smoothies, juices, coffee, acai bowls, and vegan/vegetarian options. They also have bottled juices and packaged food for a convenient meal on the go.
I ordered the Power of Acai smoothie, the Fruity Spice juice, and a dragonfruit bowl (it was their special of the day or month(?)) for a total cost of $24. And mind you the juice was only 12 oz!
My Fruity Spice juice was good, the ginger overpowered the rest of the ingredients, but it wasn't unbearable. The smoothie was decent and the cup was huge, however they didn't fill it up to the top! If I'm paying $8.50 for a smoothie it not only should be amazing, but it should also be FULL. The dragonfruit bowl topped with shredded coconuts and sliced bananas was pretty amazing. However, I saw that they had pre-sliced the bananas and placed them in the freezer. Why not slice it fresh.. especially if it's a topping. But hey that's just me. I also made a grave mistake of asking for granola on top. It had what tasted like rosemary…mixed in the granola.. for what's supposed to be a sweet snack. I don't know. it just didn't work for me and I ended up scooping all of it off.
Lastly, the staff wasn't very attentive, moved at a slow pace, and forgot things in my order. Overall, I had a less than average experience. Not sure if it's worth another try despite it being close by.
Sometimes you just don't want eggs on a Saturday, and before my GF and I went to McCarren to read and enjoy the sunshine, we popped in for some smoothies. It was delicious! Perfect for that 80 degree weather that is descending upon NYC with a fury. I was, hand to god, full after my shake. A little extra whey and you will be too. Lines can get a bit long, so prep yourself for a wait. But a modicum degree of patience is well worth the end result.
Juicing may be over the top pretentious Brooklyn … but the pretension tastes delicious in my belly!
