    Berry Bowl!
    Lisa N.

    I've been wanting to try awesome juice bar since they opened. People that work in the area and live in the area seem to swear by their smoothies and bowls . I finally made it to the juice bar and ordered a berry bowl. Their base has an amazing consistency! They make it right there when you order it so it's not premade and frozen. I would say, I think the base needed a little more flavor ...so next time, I'll probably see if they have some vanilla protein powder that they can blend into the base. The toppings I got were strawberries, homemade granola! (it's amazing! Pick this one for sure), blueberries and an almond drizzle. The almond drizzle is a lot more than just a drizzle, which I found appealing, but if you're looking for only a little bit of almond butter, you might want to say "go easy on the almond butter". Overall, I am thoroughly happy with my bowl.

    Delicious! I had the PB bowl and it was one of the best smoothie bowls I've ever had. The base was creamy and the perfect temperature (sometimes they're a bit too cold for me!). I also snagged some of the spicy Kale chips for the car ride and they were so yummy! Thanks so much! Definitely recommend

    So good! You can order açaí bowls, smoothies or juice. Perfect for vegans and non vegans. Their bagels are soo good! Service was quick and everyone was friendly. Definitely a little hidden gem for the area

    Great healthy option if you're looking for a better alternative! Leaving Chicago and found this spot and it didn't disappoint, limited indoor seating. But plenty of vegan options. Unfortunately, the bagels aren't vegan. The açaí bowl and flavorful, only thing is the base could've been sweeter.

    The is my favorite local smoothie bar ever. The name throws me off a bit because I assume they're like a chain but it's actually the most wholesome, truly healthy, no artificial flavors or sugary syrup pump bs juice bar. And the owner I believe decorates his whole juice bar with his own original paintings and art. Definitely recommend MR CACTUS (blended juice). I thought I wasn't going to like it but it's not bitter and has tropical refreshing taste to it. The #8 milkshake with almond milk and protein was such a great filling after workout shake. Not chalky at all. And my favorite treat was the ACAI BOWL with pineapple, granola and honey drizzle add ons!!! It was recommended by the owner and both my bf and I enjoyed every bite. I typically don't like sweets but the honey drizzle was so good.

    They have such an extensive menu! I wanted to try everything!

    I happened to stumble upon Awesome Juice Bar when I was in the area a few weeks ago. I had to pick something up from Facebook Marketplace after finishing a workout, and needed something to hold me over during my long drive back home. The small space does not look like much from the outside, but once you enter you are welcomed with a clean and nicely decorated interior. There is a bit of seating; I would say about fifteen people could fit at full capacity. There is also a little table with children's books available to read, which I found to be a cute and thoughtful touch. The menu is quite expansive, offering acai bowls, bagels, parfaits, juices, smoothies, and milkshakes. I ordered the number 7 milkshake, made with cacao, banana, peanut butter, and oat milk. I honestly ordered it with the firm belief that it is technically still smoothie - but correct me if I am wrong. Anyways, the drink was wonderful! You can tell they use fresh fruit and quality ingredients. I was reading through the menu and the information available at the counter, and appreciate how they do not use artificial flavors and sugars in their drinks. I also found the prices to be reasonable for the huge amount of food/drinks you get. The lady at the counter and the man who made and served me my drink were both very friendly and welcoming! Awesome Juice Bar may appear unassuming at first, but it is definitely worth trying out and going back to if you are around the area!

    Breakfast croissant with egg and cheese. Eggs cooked on the spot w/ melted cheddar/goat cheese on a very flaky fresh croissant. Outstanding.

    Have now returned a couple times and this juice bar remains awesome. Really impressed with their fresh, made to order breakfast croissant with egg and cheese. The super nice owner cooked the eggs on the spot with melted cheddar and goat cheese on a very flaky fresh croissant. Outstanding. I had the #3 juice with it, with carrot and orange bursting with vitamins and taste. Love this place,

    PB Bowl
    Jess A.

    Hands down my favorite small business out there! The PB Acai Bowl is the best acai bowl I've ever had! I'm always coming back for it. The presentation of the acai bowl is always perfect and picture worthy (as you can see with how many pictures I have of my bowls haha). I usually get my bowl with granola, cacao, and almond butter! The shop is located behind the Jiffy Lube with limited parking, but I never have trouble getting a spot. The inside of the shop is always clean and I love looking at the artwork they have up. The 12oz smoothie/juice deal of the day are all amazing as well. I've tried Miko, Manberry, and Awesome, which are all so good and fresh. I've also had their bagel with cream cheese and strawberries, which is just like any ordinary bagel, nothing special. The owners are always so sweet and go above and beyond to serve their customers. A hidden gem for sure! :)

    I'm a big fan of açaí bowls and I've tried dozens of juice bars in my area and this one wasn't a good experience. I paid $15 for the bowl and it was half empty with hardly any açaí and the manager didn't see a problem with it. This was definitely not worth the money. I won't be coming back.

Loved how many options of bowls they had, though mostly it's different combinations of banana, blueberries, strawberries, cacao nibs, and coconut shreds. Peanut or almond butter are also selections, as are pistachios, which were on my Goin' Back to Cali bowl. For some reason, I was left with a medicinal aftertaste after eating my bowl, and I'm not sure if it was the açaí base or the coconut shreds that were the culprit. The bananas used were also not quite ripe and ready to go and tasted a bit green, if you know what I mean. It's $13.50-15 per 16oz bowl, and there are (cashless) kiosks where you can place your order. An introvert's dream! Easy street parking, and there are a handful of seats to dine in here. Plenty of smoothie options too.

It was ok, probably more protein than I needed. Personally I could have done without the raisins (I looked it up - raisins have many benefits) so the salad was ok. My companion really enjoyed their Carolina grains bowl. We also ordered chips and hummus. I think because I am confused by Currito it won't be top of mind for me when I am selecting a place to eat.

Given it was a Saturday, there was an annual art fair in the Village Green close by, and the Mother's Day weekend, we expected it to be very busy, and it was justifiable so.  There was a rather long line placing orders at the cashier, but it moved quickly.  There were many laminated menus for us to read while waiting in line.  The cashier was friendly, patient, and helpful in answering questions.  Our daughter ordered an Avocado Toast and a Berry Zen Refresher.  My husband and I found that a good idea, and each of us also ordered an Avocado Toast, although I had hoped that I got different types of dishes to photograph, lol.  Husband had a Cappuccino, and I had a large Iced Pistachio Latte (oat milk).  This simple brunch came up to $77.34 with tip, and it's worth it. All 3 Avocado Toasts were perfectly made.  All the ingredients were very fresh, although there wasn't a lot of seasoning, the taste of each ingredient worked well together to achieve a delicious dish.  I especially liked the over easy egg and the crispy edges of the warm toast.  My Iced Pistachio Latte was very good without being too sweet. Although the food and drinks were the star, the ambiance was so pleasing and relaxed that totally elevated the entire experience.  The dining room with high ceiling and chandeliers was spacious and beautiful.  There were many different types of seating for patrons -- big comfy couches, regular tables, high-tops, small booths, conference rooms with long table and chairs, small private rooms... not to mention about the large sheltered patio with many tables and seats!  As I have mentioned, we went at a busy time, there were not a lot of tables left for dining purposes, we opted for a high-top.  Even though the venue was almost filled to capacity, it still felt very airy and comfortable.  I could just chill there happily for half a day with my latte! However, there were small hiccups that fortunately did not ruin our first experience there.  My husband's and daughter's drink came out almost instantly after we sat down, but I had to chase down a staff (there's no servers except for the staff who delivered the dishes or cleaned tables) to tell him that my drink was missing.  I told him that it's supposed to be cold but with no ice.  He immediately got me a Pistachio Latte but with ice.  The cashier lady had specified no ice on when she placed the order for me, I talked to her about this and she offered to make me a new one, but I had already had a sip and didn't want to put the drink to waste, so I just kept it.  I later scooped out all the ice so that it did not dilute my drink, and it was good.  I must mention that the food came out in just 5 minutes even though the place was busy. Our high-top table wobbled when we used our knives and forks to cut the toasts, not a very big deal, but the restaurant could easily have that fixed as I am pointing it out now, It's one of the high-tops under the BB sign. This brunch kicked off a very happy Mother's Day weekend.  I was in a very good mood going to the art fair from Bean Bar.  We will definitely return to try the many other items on their menu.
