If your looking for a good meal replacement, protein, or energy booster this is the place for you. The shakes are very addicted. First you start off with mango aloe shoot and a tea. Second you choose what type of shake that you want. There's so many to choose from. Some of my favorites are the Snapback which taste like Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal, White Chocolate Reese and Strawberry Cheesecake. The Tea Bombs are good also they will definitely give you a boost I don't have a favorite tea I like them all I usually tell them to mix up whatever when I order one. I recently ordered the Jolly Rancher Tea Jug. I drink it 2 hours before I workout. I love how all the workers interactive with all the customers. They greet everyone when they come in and leave. It's always a nice atmosphere I've never left unhappy. read more

I'm always up for a delicious shake to enjoy as a lunch or fulfilling snack. And I definitely received a delicious shake from Cardinal Nutrition on Friday. I had only a few minutes to spare, and the man who was working behind the counter was quick to put my shake together and very accomodating. I got the Elvis shake, which has peanut butter and banana, a personal favorite. Both of the flavors came through in this, and it left me feeling full for several hours afterward. The price was $7.50, which was a bit high for a shake, but it also seems like there is a lot of goodness in these shakes. I also saw some exercise balls in the space, and the man who served me said they have workouts here as well. If I was a UofL student, this would be a place I would regularly stop. My husband actually lived around the corner from here when he was in college. I wish this had been here then. read more

Cardinal nutrition is awesome! Everyone should try this place. The place looks a little sketchy on the outside, but it's totally normal on the inside. It's walking distance from UofL too. So the whole process is three different steps. It's $7 for the whole thing. First, they give you a mango aloe shooter. I was a little scared to try it but it was surprisingly good. Next, they give you an herbal tea. You can choose between raspberry, peach, or lemon. I don't like tea at all, but these were really good! The last step is choosing your shake. They've got probably over 50 flavors. There's a huge variety like wedding cake, banana nut muffin, blueberry cheesecake, fruity pebbles, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, thin mint and a ton more that were so interesting. I got white chocolate covered strawberry. It's delicious and very filling. I also tried the banana nut muffin and cherry cordial and they were both awesome. The guys working there were so friendly and talkative. They explained everything and gave recommendations. They made us feel comfortable even though we had no clue how the whole process worked. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone! read more

I didn't even know this place was here! I was door dashing and picked up an order. Decided to come back and try them out glad I did! I don't remember the name of what I had, but it was all I ended up having for dinner that day lol. Nice people that work there, gave me a sample and a discount card off my first purchase! read more

This is your new favorite spot for when you need a sweet fix but can't get down with the usual empty, high calorie, sugar filled, guilt ridden choice of a milkshake or other junky option. The owner is super friendly and informative about the products that he sells. These are like milkshakes for the health conscious. The choices for shake flavors are limitless and all seem to be delicious so far. I have tried Coconut Crush and The Elvis. Both worthy of ordering again. Next up: fruity pebbles or brownie batter. I'm really glad this business popped up right around the corner from my work. I also appreciate the jam packed protein and other healthy big word ingredients in these meal replacement shakes. U of L students...beware! This will be your go to school snack/meal addiction. read more

PHENOMENAL! I'm huge on protein shakes, but sometimes they're too rich, too gritty, or just don't taste right. However, Cardinal Nutrition hits it with a perfect shake. The gentleman (although I forgot his name) was friendly from the moment I walked in and super knowledgeable of his products; you knew he wasn't feeding you crap like some places would. His 3-step process is genius and delicious. Even for people who don't know much about nutrition or are skeptics, I highly encourage you to give this place a shot. There is an abundance of flavors to choose from and he caters it to your liking. Hands down the best smoothie place around and a place I'll continue to be a loyal customer at. read more

Wonderful customer service and experience! Everything is made fresh on the spot and the consistency is great. read more

Definitely a must try, especially if you're a student at UofL and need a quick fix. The owner is very friendly, and he explains the process they go through while you're waiting for your shake. I picked the Coconut Crush for my first time; it was delicious! The place is at the intersection of 3rd and Wrinkler. The place may look closed from the outside, but it's not. I would recommend this place to anyone who is trying to find a healthier alternative. read more

Had a great experience even though I didn't know what to expect from the looks of the place. But as soon as I walked in McKaya (I'm sorry for almost certainly butchering the spelling) did an awesome job of walking us through the process of choosing our teas and shakes! She even made me her favorite, the lemon bar with caramel and graham cracker, which she ASSURED me was still healthy. read more

You know, this would not be my normal spot as I generally don't like putting mixes and powders in my body, but they've got me as a believer! Drop in and have a full experience with the tea and then the smoothie. Each smoothie is a meal replacement and has crazy flavors that actually taste exactly like they say. Usually syrups to me have an artificial taste, but these do not! Is it too good to be true? I'm not sure, but I'll keep coming here for lunch a few times a week. read more

This is just Herbalife in disguise. My shake was 3 different powders and 3 (yes, 3) frozen blueberries. It tasted fine but I don't want to pay $7 for something that is basically not real fruit. read more

great service, great people and the kindness is felt! thank you for the sample of the tea

I had the boogyman awesome drink lasted me hours nice little drink to get after a dentist appointment at the Louisville school of dentistry

Took 30 minutes to get my smoothie. I also had a coupon for 50% off and was charged full price after I was told the discounted price and proceeded to hand my card over. Was a bit disappointed in the ingredients as well. Expecting some type of fresh ingredient in my smoothie but it was all just ice, protein powder, and artificial syrup. read more

Amazing and (somehow) healthy shakes. They have pretty much any flavor you can think of. Banana pudding is 10/10 read more

3 words Yummy. Quick. Fulfilling. Peanut we butter pie don't go wrong. I'm a paint butter lover and this my friend will be your go to! 2nd time here and they have came to the plate for me. Home run!! Great for a meal replacement. read more

The other positive reviews were spot on. The gentleman working was extremely friendly and offered me a sample when I walked up to the counter. A little expensive--but you get what you pay for. Why wouldn't you be willing to pay the same price for a meal replacement shake as you would for a drink from a coffee shop? Highly recommend! read more

Do not let the outside appearance keep you from going inside. This place is AWESOME!! Great service. The guy explained the whole menu and the benefits of the nutrition. There is a large amount of flavors. I tried French toast and it tastes just like real French toast. It is soo good. Highly recommend this place for someone who wants a healthy snack or food replacement, or simply someone who wants a tasty shake. read more

I don't care for the star rating system. This place after my first visit today is a 10! The young man that served me was more on educating me on health than making a buck and I liked that. He then proceeded to give me a choice of the goodness that they make after a couple of samples that made me want more. I live all the way up in Cincinnati, OH but, I am down to service Church Hill every week and now i've found the fountain of youth through these gentlemen and can't wait till i'm down there next week to try everything they offer on their menu. Well done gentlemen!!!!! read more
