I found The Juice House through a search on Yelp, of course. TJH is located on busy North Avenue, right across the street from the Shop Rite in a newly constructed shared building with a gym, pizza place, and other shops. Parking is available in the rear of the building. (I, of course didn't realize that in spite of the many signs, oops!)
The Juice House is open and inviting with bright green walls, lots of positive wall quotes, couches, plenty of tables, seating, and outlets to plug in your gadgets. I knew I was in the right place after seeing Navitas products, tons of leafy greens, fresh fruits, and other superfood goodies. I think a printed menu would be helpful for someone like me who is indecisive and has trouble reading the chalkboard menu. But you can always check out their menu online. Anyway, I was hungry and the first thing that caught my eye was their Acai bowl. I have never been to a healthy spot that has an acai bowl on their menu. I was super excited. I received it in a plastic to go container, which is convenient in case I wanted to take it to go. I wish they used a real bowl and utensils, but I know, I'm being picky. Plastic is so toxic when you're eating superfood goodness!
My acai bowl was a large portion. It had a blended base of bananas, peanut butter, almond mylk, and acai powder. It was topped with fresh strawberries, pineapples, pitted dates, dried figs, puffed rice, goji berries, and coconut flakes. Though it was a cold treat, it was quite filling and I loved the texture and crunch of the puffed rice and goji berries. The strawbs and pineapple were too sour, but that's what happens when you eat fruit out of the season! Nonetheless, I finished my bowl within an hour and ordered their Zesty juice (carrot, orange, ginger, pineapple, and apple) to fight off some germs. Juice was a lovely orange color and was sweet and zesty. Loved it!
The owner is a local Garwood resident who studied Nutrition. It's awesome knowing that there are places like The Juice House who have REAL food, juice, and know a thing or 2 about super food. Can't wait to go back!
I'll start by saying I'm not crazy about juicing, but I do love a good smoothie and this place has them. Whether you're watching your weight and want to drink pure veggies, you're craving a sweet, fruity smoothie, or you just deadlifted 3x your body weight at Crossfit and need a high-calorie smoothie, there's something for everyone.
My personal favorite is the Lady in Red, but I also just tried the Chocolate peanut butter smoothie and loved it (satisfied my inner-fat kid cravings but was still super healthy).
My fiancé prefers the juice and usually goes with the Green Monster. I've also purchased some vegan, gluten free cookies from here and was pleasantly surprised. I'm looking forward to trying their soup in the cooler weather.
According to the menu, they can accommodate vegan, gluten free, nut allergies and soy allergies. Pricing is pretty fair for what you're getting (hey, juicing ain't cheap).
I have to agree with other Yelpers: the staff could definitely be friendlier.
Ah, juice house. You were so novel to me when you first opened and I treated myself to a fresh juice every so often. But you kept me coming back with your rotation of delicious fresh snacks (brownies and cupcakes, yum!) and surprisingly filling acai bowl. Then I saw you had soups! Keeping me on my toes, you are!
I've had the Pitaya bowl and it is smaller than the acai bowl. Equally delicious though and it's fuscia so that's pretty cool. I'm pretty sure you can't go wrong eating fuscia colored food. I'm sure it's natural too. Really. Right? The bowls shouldn't really be called bowls anymore because they now come in cups.
The soup seems to change every day. All the ones I've tried have been pretty good. The staff can range from friendly to too-cool-for-school to clueless. One guy must have been new because he literally had no idea what anything was and just seemed really confused. He actually seemed so confused I thought maybe he walked into the wrong place of work. One girl was an over the top know it all and thought me asking for a lid was just ridiculous because OF COURSE IT COMES WITH A LID even though the day before the person asked me if I wanted one, like there were actual choices to be lidded or lidless. But most of the time the people are friendly and happy to serve you up a fresh healthy juice, smoothie, bowl or soup. Solid 4 stars for you, Juice House! Cheers, let's raise a cup of juiced up carrots and kale!
Finally a juice place in the area! This is a cute little spot.
Juices are good however there've been once or twice when they went a little heavy on the greens so it lost it's sweetness. Additionally, I wish the drinks were chilled a bit more but I like that you get a full cup of juice rather than a drink displaced with tons of ice. This is my "first world problem". I'll be okay, guys.
See you soon!
