OH MY GOD!!!! I am obsessed! This smoothie is so freaking good & i crave it all the time. I seriously could order this for breakfast, lunch & dinner. It tastes exactly like an orange creamsicle! I absolutely will be coming back to this location to try more of their foods & smoothies. YUM!!!

Juice & Java delivered big time. When I walked in, the café was quiet, with just a couple of customers working away on laptops. The atmosphere was cozy and relaxed, with a perfectly nostalgic 90's soundtrack playing overhead. The café itself is small and quirky, with local artwork for sale adorning the walls--an inviting little space that immediately makes you want to linger. The menu was surprisingly large for such a small spot, and while their coffee selections seemed endless, I skipped the caffeine this time. Instead, I ordered: 4-Cheese Gourmet Grill ($9.95) - Monterey Jack, provolone, American & cheddar, a bowl of Roasted Red Pepper & Gouda Soup ($4.79) and two canned sodas ($1.95 each). The staff were friendly, the tables were spotless, and our food came out quickly. The grilled cheese was generously portioned--easily shareable, with perfectly gooey, melty cheese and plenty of those delightful "cheese dangly bits" that make a grilled cheese worth it. But the real star? That Roasted Red Pepper & Gouda soup. Creamy without being heavy, rich with flavor, perfectly warm, and absolutely made for dunking a grilled cheese. I was so glad I ordered a bowl instead of a cup--I would've been sad if it ended too soon. It was one of the best soup-and-sandwich combos I've had in a long time. All in, our meal was just over $20 with tip--reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. With their great hours (breakfast through dinner, seven days a week), plenty of parking in the strip mall lot, and a menu full of tempting options, I'll definitely be back to try more. If you're in the area and craving comfort food with a cozy, local vibe--skip the chains and head here.

If you're passing through Mechanicsburg and want something much healthier than the typical…read morefast-food stop, Down to Earth Café is an outstanding choice. The café has a warm, inviting atmosphere with beautiful local artwork that creates a relaxing dining experience. The breakfast sandwich was fresh, flavorful, and reasonably priced. The frittata was hearty, satisfying, and generously portioned. While it was just a little heavier on the pepper than I personally prefer, it was still very enjoyable. The highlight of our visit was the gluten-free, vegan strawberry matcha cinnamon roll. It was incredibly moist, delicious, and packed with flavor--one of the best gluten-free pastries we've had. It's refreshing to find a café that offers healthy options without sacrificing taste. If you're traveling through central Pennsylvania or simply live in the area, this is a wonderful alternative to the chain restaurants that dominate the highways. Whether you're looking for gluten-free, vegan, or just fresh, wholesome food, Down to Earth Café delivers. We highly recommend this café and will definitely make it a stop on future trips through the area.

It was just because I was trying to have some fun with so anyway, there were not nearly as good as a child which leads me to a five star review, not only does their Boba taste very yummy, but their workers know what they're doing, and are very very polite. They are just happy to be there and happy to be socializing with other customers, which honestly makes the customers just like me perfectly happy! Anytime at the mall, I'm sure to stop at Boba shop and I will not stop doing that! Thank you for making my experience feel so welcomed

I really love popping Boba and was so excited to see that they have a few flavors. They did not have the strawberry milk tea or strawberry smoothie that is my usual go-to vessel for the strawberry poppers. I opted for a large wild berry smoothie with strawberry poppers and my fiancé got a large strawberry banana smoothie with strawberry poppers. The price point is excellent and cheaper than anywhere else we have been in PA! The drinks tasted super fresh and it is fun to watch them being made. We were there on opening day (5/28/22) so the line was really long, but it moved super quickly and everyone was so friendly! We will definitely be back! All of their menu items look delicious and we have a lot of other combinations that we want to try. The location is near Dave and Buster's on the side of the mall, near the food court. The Food Court entrance is the most convenient way to get here - just walk straight in and it'll be in front of you!

I opted for one of the protein bowls, which was so big that I almost couldn't finish it. My only "gripe" per se is that pretty much everything on the menu is super sweet. No savory bowls to be found here. Also, if you're watching calories, be aware that even though everything on the menu is healthy and natural, the calories tend to add up quickly when you're piling sweet fruits on top of sweeter fruits. Some of these bowls contain more calories than a Big Mac (albeit with more healthful ingredients). Definitely worth checking out.

Anyway, I've visited this place a couple of times and had tried their smoothies and and lunch items. Their main focus is obviously the smoothie. The first one I tried was the Avocolada. It's way too sweet for me. So the next time I made it a point to look at the labels and picked one with lower calories. Acai Berry Boost was a much better experience for me. We've also tried their flatbreads. The Chicken Bacon Ranch was excellent. My son also liked their Chipotle Chicken Club. Flatbreads come with a free side. I highly recommend their Kale & Apple Slaws. The portion could be a bit bigger for lunch but I guess it's reasonable with the lower price tag than a typical lunch menu. Service is on par. One lady was so sweet that after knowing that I've waited for so long just to pick up a smoothie, she gave me an edible straw. That was a nice gesture.
