Smoothie King, a well-known smoothie chain, has arrived in Columbia, Missouri. They offer a wide…read moreassortment of veggie/fruit/protein/energy blends, including a number of meal replacement smoothies, and customers are also able to choose from a variety of smoothie upgrades ('extreme caffeine', etc.). These are not your all-natural, organic sort of smoothies, and Smoothie King does not use fresh fruits in all of the blends, which often rely on ready-prepared mixes (-1 star!). But, all things considered, these smoothies are comparatively CHEAP (e.g. $4.99 for a 32 oz. on Fridays), so I think it's OK to forego the top shelf smoothie once in a while, and am thus awarding this place a gleaming 4 stars for value, convenience, and service.

I went there one evening with my friend and the manager, of all people, asked if I would like to…read moreadd Strawberry to my smoothie and Blueberries to my friends. We have never been asked this before so unknowingly I agreed to the add in. The manager did a great job of FAILING to mention that add ins were 99 cents more. Maybe you should tell people all of the details instead of just being out to get their money. Most likely the manager knew that she could trick us into buying the add on since we are college girls. Horrible. It's pretty crapy when you are already paying $7 for a smoothie and get tricked into paying even more without being told.

I was very disappointed as k expected to have a good juice. Upon entering there was a pleasant…read morearoma of food and the lady who greeted me seemed lovely. I placed my order and tipped and waited on my juice only to see her fumbling to make my juice and she seemed extremely stingy in filling the cup and even had to juice an additional apple and the cup still wasn't full to where I would expect. On the pic I will attach she filled it to right below the first line from bottom of the cup. By the time I sipped 2 times it was done. It's already small cup .... The least you can do is fill the cup. My goodness. Or raise your price and give a good portion or maybe the worker didn't want to work too much today. It was my first time in and I just say I was disappointed.

Food kept warm/ hot, the only thing left was left from the morning was 1 Vegan Black Bean -Sweet Potato Burrito. - Rating... great but needs the condiments that is provided at Main Squeeze to customize to one's preference. Came with salsa Frozen and Refrigerated, there was a lot more options to choose from. What we got.. Zoodle Salad with peanut sauce - Rating- great but needed sriracha (they ran out of this condiment and all others) since it flavor or needed more peanut sauce Vegan Egg Salad - Rating- I love egg salad, so this was amazing and surprisingly vegan. I would definitely order again, as as stated earlier condiments, such as hot sauce is needed. Especially with someone like me who loves spice and flavor. Pricing was decent for what we got between the two of us. Hospitality 10 out of 10.

I had to ask twice for more oat milk to make it "oaty" enough and not too bitter but my iced americano turned out pretty good too. It doesn't have a cute cafe or anywhere to sit, but that's their whole thing - just a quick coffee to-go! If you want something quick and don't want to get out of your car, you'll probably like it a lot!

The staff was friendly and patient with us. The cafe was very clean, bright, and a wonderful place to spend time in. I would agree with other reviews that the portion might be a bit smaller for what you are paying for, but it was still very nice to support a local business that meets the needs of so many who are limited in their choices otherwise. Sadly, I found plastic packaging in my food. My friend also mentioned that her latte came out cold instead of hot, which was disappointing given how cold it was on this particular day. Overall still a good experience and would like to try again! Just a little hesitant for now!
