  1. Massive fan of this place – they serve larger smoothies than other juice/smoothie shops for around the same price. Juices are all great, though there's not really much difference in juices between this place / Juice Press / Liquiteria, I think.

    Bowls are a bit expensive for what they are – yogurt, granola, seeds, and fruit, but tasty nonetheless.

  2. So happy that this place extended their hours on weekdays til 10pm. It was 10pm before…I would rush there from the gym and sometimes they would close before I got there.

    Smoothies: Joyful Almond is absolutely sinful…cacao nibs, almond milk, coconut icecream…mmmmm. It leaves you full. The multi-V squeeze with Hemp protein gives me energy after a workout.

    Green Juice: Hale to Kale all the way. Honestly, I am not a huge fan of watermelon, but this drink is refreshing.

    Shots: Have them all when you need a little immunity boost: They have things in them like tumeric, oregano oil…lemon, orange, etc, I swear by oregano oil…

    Prepared Foods: Their kale with avocado salad with lemon dressing and raisins is excellent. I usually split it over two lunches it's so big. They have other interesting dishes too like Maki rolls and enchiladas. All good. Everything is raw so it may take you awhile to chew 🙂

    The prices could be a little cheaper, but overall this place is a great addition to the neighborhood.

  3. mango smoothie at Juice Generation is really worth every dollar I payed, so fresh and healthy, great way to replenish energy after workout.

  4. I've become way too engrossed in this overpriced smoothie culture that New York has been churning out in the past few years. Juice Generation tops out the list (with the exception of the bargain Hawa), and this location is the greatest. Incredibly friendly and efficient staff, happy that this JG is my home base! Their peanut butter banana split and protein buzz are my personal favorites, in addition their juice/herb shots are pretty solid. While about a buck or so overpriced they have nice selection of immunity, recovery, and general health boosters that are super fresh. They also sell a lot of their products to-go/pre-packaged in the fridge when you walk in (good if you're in a rush and only need juices or salads). Glad to say that Juice Generation has yet to disappoint and I look forward to continually spending my pretty pennies when I'm in the mood for a health splurge.

  5. I passed this place and the smell of fresh juice made me stop and go in. I got one of the green juices (the one with pineapple) and it was amazing! This place is expensive ($10 for a large juice) but so is every other juicing place with a storefront. This was one of the best I've had. Will definitely come again next time I want to treat myself.

  6. This was very much needed after my very long run in Central Park. I got the Energy Boost, which consisted of OJ, acai berry, blueberries, and other delicious things. The place is small, but the atmosphere made it seem authentic especially with the decorations. Everything is made with real fruit and ingredients that results in a natural sweet tasting smoothie.

  7. Feeling healthy and need to be rejuvenated from a hard day of work or from a hardcore workout (or whatever the case may be)? Pop in!

    Every time I walk through their doors, I feel refreshed and already healthy. Mind you, I didn't even order anything yet (I think the produce in the back might have something to do with it!).

    My friend introduced me to Hail to Kale and now I'm hooked! I get it every time I'm here! After drinking it, you will be hailing to kale for sure.

    I have recently been into their acai bowls. I have tried their aloha one and the xo coco ones! They're both so good! Aloha is definitely more fruity than xo coco, which is more sweeter.

    Their items are pricey, I give you that. But you know what, treat yo'self.

  8. Maybe it's just because I have yet to catch on to the juicing trend, but I still don't get how $7 for blended up fruit makes sense in any universe.

    I was wandering around the UES the other day. It was super hot out, so I was in the mood for some kind of cold beverage or dessert. I'd remembered Juice Generation because one of my friends is a big fan of them, so I did a quick search to see if there were any locations near where I was. This one was just a couple of minutes away, so I dropped by.

    I had the watermelon smoothie, which is watermelon, blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries. They asked me what kind of sweetener I wanted, which I decided to go without, because I figured that the fruit would be sweet enough. It wasn't – the taste of the smoothie was kind of neither here nor there, which I was really disappointed by. This isn't Juice Generation's fault per se, but watermelon is pretty sweet on its own, y'know? And when it's blended, it should have about the same flavor. So I don't know if it's because the fruit they were using wasn't ripe, or because you really need the extra sweetener to make it taste good, or what. Either way, it was underwhelming, especially with a $7 price tag.

    Ugh… I don't know, guys. $7 for fruit in a blender. I just don't get it.
