    Chocolate banana protein smoothie
    Kudakwashe T.

    The smoothie brought my tastes buds back to life after a tough and intense workout. Highly recommend their smoothies if you're looking to energize, rejuvenate, and hydrate your spirit soul and energy after a workout. Their smoothies will put a pep in your step. The service is friendly, warm, and chill. The vibes and ambiance are green, airy, and relaxed. I definitely recommend if you're looking for a nice smoothie spot. They have a good seating situation and the vibes are chill.

    Smaller restaurant not too much standing room. The menu has a lot of custom options as well as create your own. Previously my husband did not like that his smoothies was not as sweet and appreciated the employees recommendations this time around on how to make items more chocolatey or sweeter by adding additional cocoa powder and agave. I have done their preset menu but also this time tried a create your own both very good!

    I was impressed by how fresh the fruit looked - no heavy syrup blends.

    BanaSun is a great neighborhood smoothie find with fresh options. The staff were super friendly and knowledgeable - able to expertly guide me through a number of exciting options. I was craving a familiar flavor, so went with acai. My bowl was delish, so I anticipate trying a more exotic flavor next time. Key takeaway: BanaSun is a no brainer for a real smoothie, juice or bowl in Cinci. A few things were true here that are rare these days: 1) it was clean (no stickiness or fruit flies), 2) the fruit was fresh and ripe - no reject fruit or syrupy concentrates observed, 3) they are bowl artisans who meticulously, artistically assemble your meal. These things matter and I will for sure be back.

    We had a great experience at BanaSun Smoothie Bar. We came in on a Sunday around 2 and there was a very short wait. We ordered two smoothie bowls and a smoothie. Everything was so fresh and delicious, and the presentation was amazing. The staff was very friendly, and the place was very clean. It has a perfect location right by Findlay Market in OTR, and I would highly recommend it for a healthy and refreshing snack!

    The service was quick since they had 4 workers at the time. The store was small and cute with about 10 seats. We ordered a cocoa and a wildest dreams smoothie. Both were very good. Expect to pay $9-$12 for a drink

    Delicious smoothie and great service! The Sunny Greens smoothie is refreshing and balanced. Not too sweet at all. My husband really enjoyed the Ro Ro Shot with lemon, ginger and habanero. It's spicy but not too much so if you like hot peppers like we do. I thought it tasted really good. I'd definitely return to try more of their smoothies.

    Wow truly amazing fresh and healthy smoothies and the best service in town. Michael the owner is truly passionate about proving fresh, healthy smoothies and bowls in Over The Rhine neighborhood across from Findlay Market. Your smoothie is made right in front of you with fresh fruits and vegetables with a variety of options as you can see from their menu, plus you can customize if needed. Samples are also available for the menu smoothies. I went with a new item a spicy immunity shot with lemon, ginger & habanero and a jungle smoothie with banana, kale, blueberries, raspberries and added blackberries. My smoothie was topped off with cacao nibs. BanaSun is the first of it's kind smoothie bar in Cincinnati and delicious, stop by when you're in the Findlay Market for healthy, fresh local treat.

    They have a wide selection of smoothies made with fresh fruit. They have bowls and pressed juice as well. They have a rewards program to earn points with each purchase. They even have some cool toppings you can put on your smoothies as well. I would happily come back again. Right across the street from the historic Findlay market.

    This is the citrus blend with all fresh fruit

    I love BanaSun! I haven't had anything bad from there! Seriously everything is so tasty and fresh ! Love how sweet everyone is. Very welcoming space next to the market. Very reasonably priced and the quality is what matters the staff actually like their job not mean or rude to the customers every interaction is the same! Friendly

    BanaCocoa smoothie
    Tanya P.

    This smoothie tastes wonderful. I had BanaCocoa is so creamy and flavorful. I called the order in and it was so easy. It was ready when I arrived. The people are so nice. There was no line and the place was so fresh and clean. I loved the paint job. It's bright and attractive!

    Love this new smoothie bar near Findlay Market! I got the Sunny Greens smoothie and it was so light and refreshing. It wasn't overly sweet, no added sugars, it was a great balance. The location is incredible. The service was also great! The people working were so friendly and welcoming. It's a perfect stop on a summer day.

    Coca smoothe
    Hannah H.

    This smoothie bar has the best smoothies in Cincinnati. The owner is so kind and really has taken time to get to know me and my husband. All of the staff is kind as well. We love supporting this small business. Our favorite smoothie is the Coca smoothe + Avocado. Also, reasonably priced. We make time to go here almost every week. If you're in the area this is a MUST HAVE.

Let me ask you something... where else (not just in Cincinnati, but in all of America tbh...) can you buy an Acai Bowl FOR under $10 with toppings, no added sugar, and legit the fastest service you've ever had anywhere of any type of food... the answer is literally NOWHERE in the country other than at Better Blend in DT Cincy. I consider myself a walking billboard for Better Blend's Acai bc I order a Super Bowl everyday (YUM!) with my four toppings for $9.99, and I walk across the city with it-- to my home, to my office, to Fountain Square, into OTHER restaurants to meet friends (ooops!)--and everyone who sees it can't help but ask "Woah, where'd you get that!?" Because it's THAT delicious and refreshing looking! I'll add some pics here but know this is just a fraction of our outings together lol. This is not the kind of place people generally stay and eat. I'd recommend ordering to-go... but with service like theirs, you could quite literally double-park, order, receive your order, and leave before a single other car pulls past on 4th (not recommended-- just a hyperbolic example). The people are awesome-- Zach always helps me-- and I love that it's a locally owned spot (other chain locations). Go Better Blend!!! And yes, I will officially be your Better Blender Influencer if you ask.

I went around 11 AM when the place wasn't busy, so there was no reason for my bowl to look like it lost a fight. As you can see in the pictures, the ingredients weren't layered correctly--it looked like someone just threw everything in and hoped for the best. The granola? Practically in witness protection. The peanut butter? More like peanut water. The chia seeds? Scattered like confetti at a party I wasn't invited to. The taste didn't help either. Parts of the bowl were still frozen solid, including chunks of açaí and fruit, making it feel more like I was eating a smoothie gone wrong. The ratio of ingredients was all over the place, making it hard to enjoy. Hopefully, this was just an off day, but I left disappointed. Nekter, I believe in you--let's bring back that A-game!
