    I've been here maybe five times now, and I actively look forward to it every morning before class! Everybody I've interacted with has been extremely sweet and really does make my morning better!

    Drive-through fast friendly service cookies was so delicious. All I have is a picture of the empty bag ambience normal, but still different from Hawaii.good for quick snack and drink

    We stopped in here when my sister was in town and were greeted by some friendly baristas. This is a small drive through located in the Capital mall parking lot area and is dangerously close to home! Service was very friendly and they were patient as we checked over the menu and asked questions about what flavors of syrups they had available. The iced coffees they made us were wonderful and we enjoyed them so much I had to stop back by there later last week. The coconut and white iced coffee they made was a real treat and I indulged in its delicious flavors. Both times I've been by here they've procured our coffees for us quickly and efficiently. Flavors were on point and the order accurate. Prices are reasonable and we appreciate the friendly service. We will undoubtedly be back for a coffee fix soon.

    Coffee good. Employee, bad. Witnessed a blonde, long-haired, able-bodied, bespectacled employee verbally assault a disabled woman when confronted about parking in the off-loading area of a disabled parking spot without a handicap plaquard. I heard the blonde employee shout that she was dropping something off at her work but it's been half an hour and she is just working. Shocking behavior to witness.

    Came here for a quick coffee before work. The 2 girls working were super chipper and very friendly. I ordered a peppermint mocha which is not overly sweet and really good! It was my first time here so I'll definitely have to go back to try some of their other drinks For Halloween today they're giving out a pumpkin cheesecake waffle on a stick which is really tasty!

Fresh, creative, genuinely delicious, and run with obvious care. I ordered a layered smoothie that looked almost too pretty to drink -- a swirl of bright berry red and creamy yellow. It tasted even better than it looked. Perfectly balanced, not overly sweet, and you can tell they use real fruit and high-quality ingredients. It's the kind of smoothie you actually feel good after drinking. I also tried one of their wraps, and wow. Super fresh veggies, great textures, and a generous amount of filling. The flavors were bright and well-seasoned, and it held together beautifully (not always a given with wraps!). It felt like a healthy meal without tasting like "health food," if you know what I mean. The shop has that cozy, local-business charm. Friendly staff, quick service, and everything just feels thoughtfully done. Even the packaging and branding are gorgeous. Wild Nectar is officially in my regular rotation. Whether you want something nourishing, a quick lunch, or just a genuinely amazing smoothie, this place delivers. A total gem in the neighborhood. Highly recommend!

There were two cashiers, the boy making drinks in the back, and one woman at the pickup counter who we assume was the manager since she looks older and was directing everyone else in a very bossy way. The cashier who helped us was incredibly kind, patient, and welcoming. She smiled the whole time, didn't rush us while ordering, and was so sweet to my son. The other cashier and the boy making drinks were also friendly, polite, and communicated well. The three of them were smiling, interacting happily, and had great teamwork. It honestly impressed us and gave the store such a warm, positive vibe. The drinks tasted great, the boba was soft, and the decorations were cute. We didn't have cash to tip and they didn't have tip on cards, but the cashier told us a Yelp review would help them, and they deserve it. The sad part: Our order was #88. After the "manager" handed out #87, we assumed the drinks were being given out in order, so we stepped up to the counter. She placed the taro smoothie down, so we picked it up, thinking it was ours. Instead of explaining kindly, she snapped at us, "We didn't call your order yet," and took the drink back from my son in a very aggressive way. It was our first time there and we genuinely didn't know they only go by calling the number. Her tone felt rude and unnecessarily harsh. When our order was ready, she yelled out the number even though we were standing right in front of her, then turned away without acknowledging us at all. Her attitude felt completely different from the rest of the team, and it made the moment uncomfortable. Still, I'm giving 5 stars because the other three workers were amazing and truly made our visit enjoyable. They deserve all the appreciation and recognition. Without that last moment, the experience would have been perfect.

Unfortunately, service wasn't moving because only one employee appeared to be actively helping customers while others were standing behind the counter chatting (it looked like a shift change). One employee was also eating Goldfish behind the counter, which didn't feel very sanitary. I've been coming here since high school and have always enjoyed the smoothies, so this was surprising. We ended up leaving and driving to Tumwater to a place that's always great. Hoping this was just an off day, but staffing and professionalism could definitely be improved during peak times.

I love the overall look and variety here.
