Since I can't edit or reply to owners response on yelp. Regarding the Hot Chocolate, the sign literally said "try our hot chocolate" no where did it say that it was for kids. The worker didn't even mention it was targeted for kids. It's false advertising and the owner, like in many other posts I have read, gaslights anyone talking negatively. read more

Terrible acai bowl afwul tasting blended drinks yuck save $ go elsewhere it is not cheap either

Confused as to what this place is supposed to be. "Not a Kava bar" and "family atmosphere"?? It's just unenthusiastic juveniles vaping behind the counter, and children running around at night, where are the parents? It's not a kava bar... but sells kava? The kava was either very diluted or was not kava-- and at a ridiculous price. read more

Date night at India Oven, yes please! We love this place for indoor Indian dining in EDH! read more

The shakes are excellent if you're looking for dessert style protein shakes. I personally find them to be a wonderful sweet treat when I'm looking for something low in sugar and high in protein - something I can feel good about consuming and helps me feel full afterwards. read more

Great service and amazing drinks. Get the Vacation Glow. It will change your life. I always make a point to stop here when we are in town center. read more

Location is very cute, ideal for hanging out. Acai bowls have an acai base mixed with apple juice for sweetener which is not traditional (Brazil uses Guaraná syrup for sweetener) and it's just not what I think of when I am craving acai. Maybe a good low cal option for others. Will try something else next time. read more

Oh, Blend in El Dorado Hills, you had one job: make an açaí bowl that screams "tropical superfood bliss." Instead, I got a sad snow cone masquerading as an açaí bowl! This was no luscious açaí dream it was a slushy mix of icy açaí powder, some sketchy mystery powders, a lone banana, and a whisper of maybe-juice. The flavor? Imagine a popsicle that got lost in the freezer for a decade, with a faint "açaí-banana" cameo. I wanted a bowl of vibrant joy, not a frosty betrayal! Save your money.. won't be back. read more

Blend in El Dorado Hills is a hidden gem that brings something truly unique to the area. The vibe is unbeatable--dim lighting with black lights and RGB accents gives the space an energizing yet chill atmosphere that's perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. The music is always on point, setting the perfect tone whether you're there to unwind or get work done. Their acai bowls are a must-try--fresh, flavorful, and reasonably priced. I've tried a few, and each one hits the spot without feeling heavy. The Cloud Breakers (Kava) are also top-tier--smooth and effective, with a great range of flavors. If you're into Kratom, they've got solid options for that too, with knowledgeable staff ready to guide you. Whether you're a regular or just curious about Kava and Kratom culture, Blend offers an inclusive and welcoming experience. It's a great hangout spot with good food, good drinks, and great energy. Definitely worth checking out. After reading some of the other Yelp reviews about one of the managers Jayden, I was hesitant--but my experience couldn't have been more different. Jayden actually helped guide me through a handcrafted experience with both the food and Kava. He was welcoming, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what Blend offers. It honestly seems like those past negative reviews were either exaggerated or completely false--whatever the case, his behavior has obviously been corrected, if there was ever an issue to begin with. read more

Blends AÇAÍ BOWLS are amazing! You get a great amount of volume for the cost. It does not taste ultra sweet like other places (Jamba Juice & Nektar). These bowls taste like fresh fruity goodness. This bowl will fill you up for sure. read more

Blend - Açaí Bowl! - Health Markets Near Me - El Dorado Hills, California

Ordered an Açaí bowl, it was flavorless & watered down, soggy granola and completely inedible.

tasted HORRIBLE and i'm not even picky. both drinks nasty as hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!! my sister & i both got one and just threw it in the trash.

First time visiting Blend. Admittedly not a real fan of $11 smoothies/shakes but thought my wife and I would give it a shot. Ordered the Peaches ands Cream. Teenage girl whipped the ingredients together, blended them and struggled to get the concoction thin enough to pour from the blender (possibly too much ice.....???). Left the store and found the shake to be very low on flavor. Met up with my wife nearby and she felt the same. The counter girl's mood was not impressive and I wondered if she was having a less-than-stellar chat with the young man sitting at the bar. In a nutshell, we were not impressed with the quality of this shake. For $11.00 I would expect to be blown away by a delightedly flavorful drink.........but this one was pretty blah. No "Contact Us" on store's website. Owner needs to be aware of disappointing customer visits and the fact that others like us may have no plan to return. read more

So I had seen this place a couple of weeks ago while walking my dog. I wasn't quite sure what type of store it was by looking through the windows. On one side of the building it appeared to be a bar and on the other side it was said to be a tanning studio. Any way I was again in the area so I went inside to grab a protein drink. I was pleasantly surprised. I was greeted promptly and happily. I ordered a cake batter protein drink I assumed it was made with milk so I asked what kind of milk and she said all of our drinks are made with water. I ordered a small because I wasn't sure if I would like it. It was delicious and the price was only $5.00 that's an extra plus in this day. Right ? I asked some more questions and was told this is a Kava bar that relaxes you. It stays open until 1 am sometimes. I've heard of this stuff anxious to try real soon. On the other side of the business is a tanning salon with items for sale that seem pretty interesting and also clothing items. The vibe in the bar is chic cool And relaxing. I can't wait to come back for some relaxing Kava. read more

I've been coming to Blend for about eight months now and have gotten to know the owners and their family. It's hard to find genuinely good people these days, but they're definitely here. They're doing something right--teaching their kids about business, hard work, and how to treat people. Not many places feel this welcoming. It's one of the few spots where I can hang out for hours and actually enjoy it. read more

My friends and I have come in a few times for the smoothies and kava but the manager Jaiden was extremely rude and has some of the worst hospitality I've ever encountered. He cussed at my friend from across the room for eating ramen then took it out of her hands and threw it in the trash. Don't recommend coming here. The Root of Happiness team in Rancho has way better hospitality and kava! Edit: Since I am unable to respond to the owners comment. The manager yelled "you can't fucking eat that in here, it fucking stinks, throw it out or I will" and then ripped it from her hands. I understand the outside food policy, and she should've thrown it out the first time. However, simply asking her to leave due to not following store policy would've been the most appropriate response in my opinion. Physically removing something from a guests hands, is inappropriate and unprofessional. Regardless of what a guest is doing, I've never seen a manager escalate a situation to a physical level. How would you feel if yourself, or a family member went to an establishment and had something ripped from their hands? read more

This is one of my favorite places in El dorado county. Not only are their food/shakes absolutely wonderful but the family who owns Blender is nothing but pure amazing goodness. They radiate positivity and offer a sense of family you just can't find anymore. I've had multiple shakes and they are all incredible but what you really need to try is the colossal banana bowl - i think it's top 5 best things i've ever had in my life and it's packed with so much protein and love. Their late night Kava bar is also really fun and has a great atmosphere for a night out I cannot recommend Blend enough. read more

I literally had a bowl of soggy soup as my açaí bowl and to top it off the customer service is non-existent. Won't be coming back here again. read more

Good music, good vibes, kava always tastes like , but love the flavor options, staff was friendly and kind. Definitely gonna be a go to spot. Thanks for this read more

Blend - Seating Area - Health Markets Near Me - El Dorado Hills, California

I don't normally take the time to write reviews but my experience here left me speechless. I live in EDH and I've been in business 20+ years myself. I decided to pop in for the first time while running errands. I was barely greeted by a young lady at the front, she acted like I was a big inconvenience the whole time I was there, not pleasant at all, super moody and rude. I said it was my first time visiting, what a cool place this is and wasn't familiar with the menu. She barely acknowledged that I said anything. I asked if they had any vegan friendly shakes. She didn't seem to know what that meant, but that's ok not everyone does. She then tells me they have 3 options to choose from, Blueberry, Strawberry and Chocolate. I said great, I'll have the strawberry please. She asked what size and I said the medium. I get my drink, and it's a super small cup (Starbucks tall size) and it's chocolate. I honestly couldn't be bothered saying anything to correct the mistake because of how terrible the customer service was. I took one sip, it tasted like crunchy blended ice with barely any flavour. It got tossed in the trash. This place has lots of potential, great location and it has a cool vibe in there. I don't understand how this young lady thinks it's ok to treat patrons this way and stay employed!! I'd be very upset if I were the owner and my staff treated paying customers this way. What a shame! read more

Chill new spot in Town Center, we came for the Kava! It's a nice change of pace compared to having alcohol and a more relaxing experience. Helps to unwind after a long day and put yourself in a good headspace. I recommend trying it prior to dinner to maximize the effects and experience. read more

This is a great little spot in downtown Town Center. The ingredients are fresh and the food is delicious. Everyone who works here is super friendly. read more

This is a "health" drink place selling mostly drinks/shakes/teas with protein powders, flavorings, and add-ins, but we didn't see any drinks that had actual fruit or vegetables blended in them. It's also a Kava and Kratom bar. Yes, Kratom, which was banned in San Diego and Oceanside in 2016 due to concerns over its safety and potential for abuse. City ordinances classified it as a "novel psychoactive compound," grouping it with synthetic drugs like bath salts and spice, despite it being a natural herb. Our observation is that Blend is geared mostly for a younger crowd as we rarely see anyone over 30 inside when we walk by, especially in the evenings. If protein powder drinks and artificially flavored "boosted" teas are your thing (along with loud music and modern vibe mood lighting) this place is sure to please. We, however, tried two drinks (with neither Kava or Kratom in them) and they were honestly terrible. We had a sip of each and threw them out. Artificial tasting, gritty, and unappetizing. To be fair, we are not 20-something's looking to feel "relaxed" with Kava or seeking energy/pain relief from Kratom so we can't speak to how those drinks taste. However, we can speak to the protein powder flavor drinks and we don't recommend this place for those. The service was aloof, very slow, but friendly. As others have commented, the prices are high and the music is loud. If it's your first time, order a small until you're sure this is the right place for you. This is no Neckar or Jamba Juice, that's for sure, so be aware of that going in. In fact, they don't seem to have drinks where they blend in any real fruit or vegetables at all, rather they are blending flavored protein powder into water. Spend your money here at your own risk, your enjoyment may differ based on your reasoning for coming to Blend. read more

Grass fed whey protein! That alone is reason enough to give them a try. Add to that the variety of drinks/flavors, wonderful service, cozy lounge chairs, and lots of seating --you've got a place you're sure to come back to again and again. I sat and read a book for a while and had the opportunity to meet the owners on my way out. Wonderful people! Don't be surprised if you find a line of customers when you visit. They're gaining a following, and people are lining up. Be patient and use that minimal wait time to peruse their extensive (but not intimidating) menu. read more

lovely spot, love the vibes and the energy in here! The cava and drinks are absolutely amazing always and the staff is wonderful. They all seem super close and kinda like a family. I especially noticed the amazing customer service in one of the employees. I think her name might've been kasey. she was so quick to make my drink and was super kind asking me about my day! honestly this has been the best customer service that I've seen an employee in a long time! seems like blend is hiring great employees, I don't know the other one's names, but they were amazing as well! I definitely recommend coming here. read more

Super hit or miss in terms of quality & consistency. Friendly staff & decent shakes/menu items but the texture, flavor & quality of orders has been inconsistent every visit I've been there. Hard to truly enjoy the product when they are different every time. read more

I've been to Blend three times now. The workers have always been so warm and welcoming - feels like family. My biggest problem is that I just wanted to keep trying everything and so many things look good. I've had the post workout smoothie (over 40 g of protein and low carb/sugar) two times now. My Vanilla Almond oatmeal was really good and my wife's was as well. The acai bowl was also really good. I will keep going back for sure, especially after my workouts. It also a cool place just to hang. Cheers to Blend! Thank you for opening such a great business in El Dorado Hills. read more

Excellent team that really makes you feel like part of the community. Kava vibe at night is a ton of fun for everyone and açaí bowls are super legit during the day! I I highly recommend this place! The owners are super cool and very kind! read more

Loved the relax comfortable vibe and friendly service. I'm not sure I felt much from the kava which was a first try for me. Maybe I needed a second one or more of an empty stomach? read more

Staff was amazing! Incredible service the family had a great time and the drinks were amazing, very clean atmosphere and all around amazing place! read more

Wonderful place and atmosphere. Staff are great. I very much enjoy the Vacation Glow and their cloud breaker. Awesome place

I took my son for an Açaí bowl and it was quite good. It was large, although it's expensive, so I'm glad they provided and got what we paid for. I got oatmeal, it was literally two bites. It was 8.00 for two bites of oatmeal. Yes, it had PB powder in it, but this was literally a sample size of what you would get anywhere else. Overall, this place is expensive and I'm fine paying a bit more for some things, but I would re evaluate charging so much for oatmeal. The service what great and atmosphere was pleasant. It was mid morning, so not many customers. I do wish you luck and hope you succeed. read more

Customer service matters, even in 2025. No customer wants to spend their hard earned money for poorly made beverage. I cannot patronize a business that cannot display at least a basic modicum of respect and appreciation for the customers that allow it to remain in business. Ownership, you should take this as a coaching moment. Customer service matters. read more
