Our football family stopped by after practice. We had called to let them know of our larger group,especially before closing and they were so welcoming. I know a group of 18 kids, plus parents is quiet an order for the end of the day. The staff is always so genuine and kind and as our athletes are growing and learning more about what they need for fuel as athletes we are so grateful to have a tasty healthy alternative option so convenient to home. read more

We stayed in Florence for a week and came here 2 times. Inside was nicely decorated. Service was okay, could've been a little better at welcoming new customers and explaining the menu/ offering suggestions. Also, our order was bagged to go without asking if we were eating there or not. Definitely not welcoming. The bowls, however, were really good. I tried the premade ones and each time was good. read more

Really enjoyed my vegan fruit smoothie that was low in sugar. I subbed out the apple juice for 1/2 water 1/2 almond milk. Candidly, I wasn't feeling 100% due to my sinuses and wanted a little pick me up. I'm so glad that I stopped by. This was just what I needed and the service was amazing. It's a locally owned shop that cares about their products and customers. While I don't eat many smoothies when I want another one this will be the place I will get them. Highly recommend! read more

Better Blend - Florence - Tropical Vibe- vegan no apple juice 1/2 water 1/2 almond milk instead. Yummy! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Florence, Kentucky

Creative menu -- so many cereal and dessert-inspired protein shakes to choose from! We tried cinnamon roll which tasted pretty on point. The açai bowl was solid! We had granola, almond butter, bananas, cacao nibs, and blueberries for toppings. You get 4 free toppings, after that each topping is an additional $1. I think the bowl could've had more açai for the price it costs but for a refreshing healthy treat, it was satisfying! read more

This is a GREAT local smoothie shop - complete with fun flavors, a variety of milk alternatives, and several great add-ons to choose from. I love stopping by after a workout and grabbing a smoothie to-go. The location is unassuming from the outside - it's nestled into a strip mall. There's never been a line when I've stopped in, but this is one of those spots that you can just tell has its regular customers. I usually ask the cashier what their favorite smoothie is at the moment, because they tend to have the insider recommendations on what flavors you can combine, and what add-ons taste good with each combo. You can also tell that their team members care about what they're serving - everyone that I've ordered from has been so knowledgeable and friendly. My favorite that I've tried is definitely the Peanut Butter Pie smoothie with added banana. It literally tastes like a milkshake - but I love that I can drink it and know that it's good for me! I always worry that I'll taste that protein powder flavor, but I never have once. They also serve açaí bowls, which are packed with toppings and just as delicious as their smoothies. read more

I absolutely LOVE Better Blend-Florence!!!!! I am a regular customer and every time I enter the store I am greeted by smiling faces. They even remember my name!

So surprisingly good, it's suspicious. Can it possibly be real fruit? I've tried two different type of smoothies here and they are delicious. I'm at not sure if I caught them on an off day but my wife and I were the only customers and there was no less than 8 kids working who were very friendly and eager to make smoothies! Don't pass this one up. It will have you coming back every day that you travel to the area for work... read more

Amazing Peanut Butter Pie Smoothie with only 300 calories Great Service and super fast! read more

Just tried this place for the first time today, and it's legit. Well done, guys. I got the banana but muffin protein blend. It's packed with protein, fiber, and high quality ingredients and tastes great! No powdery texture that a lot of these blends get buckled down with. And to top it off, they're low on sugar, fat, and calories! If you're into this kind of thing, you definitely need to pay them a visit. read more

My wife wanted to go to this place for some time now so we went and I got to say I'm not a big fan of smoothies but this place changed my mind. It's not your typical smoothies though, this was my first time here and it seems it's more of a Healthy/Protein smoothies kind a place which at first it made me think twice about it thinking they would taste too healthy but they are actually really good! I believe the idea is for people who workout they could replace a meal with a smoothie from this place like some do with Shakecology. Definitely an interesting concept with really good flavors, they provide in the menu the amount of calories, proteins etc. The place is very clean, fresh and the staff was super nice. read more

Where do I even start. First of all, I am not a health nut, but try to find things that are healthy that my kids will enjoy. My 12 year old son is a super picky eater, we told him we were trying a new "shake" place and had heard it was really good. He was open to it because they had a Cookies and Cream flavor. He loved it. Score for mom! He is a cross country runner so now he requests to have these before a meet. This is the first healthy thing he asks for! My daughter is 15 and more into health and nutrition. She is a swimmer, so she gets one before swim meets. She thinks it really helps with her performance. Her favorite flavor is the Kitty Kat, but the new S'mores this weekend may have taken over the top spot. I go because of the taste, I am not a huge smoothie fan because I don't like the grit, but there isn't any traces of that. My favorite flavor is Pineapple Upside Down Cake because it tastes like Pineapple Dole Whip. I did try the Blueberry Donut this weekend and that was quite tasty too. I like the fruity flavors more than the peanut butter or chocolatey ones, but that is just me. You really can't go wrong with any flavor. I just don't know how Isaac does it, he really nails those flavors. He even has a Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip that tastes like it! I know people who just work their way down the flavor list in order to try each one. Now on to talk about Isaac. His passion is to help people live healthy lives and wants to build into the community. I met him shortly after he first opened. Just a really good guy. If I were his parents, I would be very proud of him. And what great parents to support their entrepreneurial son! Thank you Isaac for showing that eating/drinking something good for you can be delicious! read more

Ordered 2 açaí bowls and a smoothie. My family and I have had many açaí bowls in the past. We were driving home from Tennessee and needed a healthy option from all of the high calorie unhealthy food options in Gatlinburg. Some acai places we've had in the past were duds and some were home runs. This place is a home run. I would recommend. read more

I've heard the hype so I finally decided to try it after a night class and I've fallen in love. I tried the strawberry shortcake and I was fully expecting to have that nasty thick protein powder taste. It was absolutely delicious!! More like a strawberry shortcake milkshake but they some how made it magically with way less fat and sugar and you still get your protein. Very happy about this place! I only wish they were open a tad earlier because when my morning fitness class is over, it's still another hour until they're open. :( BUT that's me being selfish rather than anything against them. Could be tricky to find if you're not familiar with the area, turn before the light at the top of the hill rather than at the light. read more

Best smoothies around. Real ingredients, amazing flavor and so healthy! Kept me full for a long time and the staff is the best part. Super friendly! I got the Cinnamon Toast Crunch! Next time I want to try blueberry donut read more

This is a great place to grab a quick smoothie after a workout at the planet fitness across the street. They offer lots of protein filled smoothies and are generally pretty quick with my wait times usually under 5 minutes. I ordered the Strawberry Banana Smoothie which has 228 cal, 13 g sugar and 28g protein. I also love the Brownie Batter Smoothie when I'm in the mood for a healthy dessert (176 cal, 3g sugar and 27g protein.) Their smoothies are a combination of powders and real ingredients like bananas, nuts, etc depending on the smoothie. They also offer vegan protein powders, energy powder add ins, etc. There is branded merchandise in the store if you're looking to support better blends. read more

I love my experience at Better Blend every time I go in! The staff are very friendly and greet me by name. The Florence store is always clean. I usually get a blend for a meal on-the-go and every flavor I've tried has been delicious and tastes like a treat versus a healthy meal. The few times I've tried the açaí bowls they have also been amazing and I really can't recommend this place enough! read more

A welcoming and cool place for sure! The staff were very friendly, chatty, and were very helpful in helping give advice on what to order! The drink I ordered was looked appealing and tasted good. Although I was hoping more for a smoothie consistency and less of a chalky like texture. Overall, we enjoyed it and I would like to come back and try the açaí bowels! read more

So yummy. Always mean to come back but I had my baby 6 months ago and my cravings aren't as rapid! Lol but they have a great membership card for free drink after so many type thing. I like that! Also, it's family ran...the son founded or so the story goes and the whole fam is involved which makes it special for us. I need to go back like soon! read more

Terrible service and not a welcoming environment whatsoever. Walked in with a friend and the girl behind the counter started laughing at us. Will not be coming back to this location. read more

I really like this place! I came after an intense workout and I was in need of some recovery! When I walked in, I was a little overwhelmed with all of the choices, but the staff there explained how their blends and shakes work and gave me recommendations! I tried the blueberry cake donut shake and it was delicious! They were able to make it without the ingredient that has gluten in it for me, which was great, and they don't add any dairy to their blends unless it specifically says so. They have a fun little rewards program and the staff were all really nice. I definitely think the price was worth the amount you get, and I'll probably start coming by once a week after a hard workout! read more

I got the pineapple dole whip flavor and it tasted just the dole whip at Disney. The texture was good and the price was good too.

Finally! Florence has some kind of smoothie place! Great high protein, low carb, low sugar, DELICIOUS flavors. I don't think they have the typical kale, spinach, or wheat grass additions you see in some smoothie places, but they do have açaí bowls and plenty of berry smoothie options along with creative smoothie options like "cinnamon roll" and "Reese's cup". They also have a child size! Good vibe, good smoothie, decent prices- I will be back! read more

To be honest, this place far exceeded my expectations! My friend and I are from Louisville and made the trip to Florence just for this. The drinks are all low calorie counts, high protein, and amazing flavor! I'd 10/10 recommend the White Chocolate Reese. The two guys working were extremely helpful, sweet, and let us try a few things as well. DO IT health nuts. read more

My new morning stop you will not regret stopping in and trying ! The smoothies are delicious and the people are so kind and loving !

Great place to get a meal replacement smoothie. There are a variety of flavors, and I went with a peanut butter pie smoothie; delicious and tasted like a Reece's peanut butter cup. It was a great alternative to an actual meal, but with low calorie, low carb, sugar and fat content. I would definitely come back here for a quick on-the-go meal. My only recommendation would be to display or have pamphlets with nutrition content of each smoothie. While I waited for my smoothie being made, I found that multiple customers asked for calories, protein, ect. as well as myself wondering the same information. read more

Great spot. Highly recommended. Great service and blends. Try the peanut butter Oreo smoothie.

Excellent smoothies, very fresh and filling! Prices aren't bad either. Customer service was wonderful, they know what they're talking about. And there's gluten free, dairy free, sugar free options. The store itself is spotless. read more

I am SO THANKFUL that this place exists. I've been dying for a healthy smoothie option (all the others seem to be full of sugar and other garbage) and this place fits the bill every time. The people who work there are always so kind and helpful and are so excited to make suggestions. I've loved every flavor I've gotten, but the Macadamia Nut smoothie is on another level. I go at least once a week and thankfully they have a punch card system that gets you a free smoothie. The only thing I want is another location closer to my home--this place is the best. read more

Their protein shakes are so delicious. Right amount of calories, sugar and protein! Plus everyone is super nice.
