He and I stopped by on a weekday for food and drinks, including bagels, sausages biscuit, turkey and swiss, hot chocolate and lattes. I enjoyed the sandwich. In fact my son ate half and I was still happy. It came with a side of chips. My lavender lattes are strong there, almost too much. I need to remember that and ask for less or try another syrup. When I took my first sip today I understood why people compare it to soap. My stops here tend to be quicker. I'm realizing this has more to do with the space and available seating than my schedule. It's not a space that's as comfortable to me so I don't crave to come and linger or meet people for conversation. Fairly easy to grab street parking nearby and no meters to pay.

My friend and I were wanting to get "dinner" but wanted to stay on the healthy side. We found…read moreBetter Blend on Yelp and decided to give it a try. They provide a large variety of smoothies and açaí bowls. We both ended up ordering a smoothie. I had the birthday cake smoothie and loved it. It tasted like the real thing. My friend got the chocolate banana smoothie and she enjoyed hers also. I love how the smoothies that we received would be 800 calories minimum but the larges we ordered were only around 280 calories with 25-30 grams of protein (everyone is obsessed with protein these days). The smoothies are a little expensive at around 8 dollars a cup but if you treat yourself once in a while, I think it's worth it.

This is my reply to the Playa Bowl response. Wow. I'm speechless. This company is all about CYA and…read moreshedding any accountability and responsibility. Their conclusion is that they are always right and the customer is, apparently, always wrong. I DID contact Playa within 30 days and did NOT receive any response. Nor did I receive ANY responses across the multiple trips I made (each time paying hefty bridge tolls). The ONLY time I heard Playa weigh in was when I made a BBB complaint as well as the poor review here on yelp. Each time, "management" replied to the site and NOT to me personally, assuming this was just to spare their public image and as a CYA technique. They don't care about me, my experience, or the average customer--their sole objective is to portray a fake image of caring when their poor business practices are exposed. Look at the pics I posted, they speak for themselves. All I asked for was common courtesy and decency. Most of my reviews on businesses have been glowing, so blaming my dissatisfaction on being a poor customer is shameful and appalling. I'm sure playa will, once again, respond to this review and NOT to me personally...and I'm sure more BS and fraudulent claims will follow because they have to have the last word to try to spin things away from their harsh reality that they can't follow basic principles of running a business.

When you walk in your warmly greeted by the staff. Although I didn't talk to them long they all were very nice and even helped me pick one of the coffees off their spring menu because I was in between two. I think the prices are good here as for their espresso blend of coffee beans it was only $18 for a pound. I ended up getting a peach cobbler latte and a strudel. The apple strudel I got was amazing it was warmed and buttery and just perfect all around so definitely grab a pastry if you can. The peach cobbler latte was also very good but didn't have the strongest peach flavor but was still good. Overall cute place that keeps the menu rotating which is always good.

I had only a few minutes to spare, and the man who was working behind the counter was quick to put my shake together and very accomodating. I got the Elvis shake, which has peanut butter and banana, a personal favorite. Both of the flavors came through in this, and it left me feeling full for several hours afterward. The price was $7.50, which was a bit high for a shake, but it also seems like there is a lot of goodness in these shakes. I also saw some exercise balls in the space, and the man who served me said they have workouts here as well. If I was a UofL student, this would be a place I would regularly stop. My husband actually lived around the corner from here when he was in college. I wish this had been here then.

Cardinal nutrition is awesome! Everyone should try this place. The place looks a little sketchy on…read morethe outside, but it's totally normal on the inside. It's walking distance from UofL too. So the whole process is three different steps. It's $7 for the whole thing. First, they give you a mango aloe shooter. I was a little scared to try it but it was surprisingly good. Next, they give you an herbal tea. You can choose between raspberry, peach, or lemon. I don't like tea at all, but these were really good! The last step is choosing your shake. They've got probably over 50 flavors. There's a huge variety like wedding cake, banana nut muffin, blueberry cheesecake, fruity pebbles, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, thin mint and a ton more that were so interesting. I got white chocolate covered strawberry. It's delicious and very filling. I also tried the banana nut muffin and cherry cordial and they were both awesome. The guys working there were so friendly and talkative. They explained everything and gave recommendations. They made us feel comfortable even though we had no clue how the whole process worked. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone!
