I really wished I could give a good review but I unfortunately wasn't a fan of the açai bowl. The…read moreaçai was way too sweet and didn't really pair well with the matcha. The ratio of açai to matcha was like 85:15 and I would have liked more matcha. I thought the bowl was nicely presented and I especially liked the crunch from the cornflakes (definitely get that as a topping). There's also some frozen strawberries inside the açai itself which was nice (gave the melting açai more texture - the cons of getting it delivered). The fruit on top was pretty fresh too. But the bowl was smaller than I expected and quite pricey.

These are sickeningly sweet. The ingredients listed on the website do not mention that the acai…read morepuree is sweetened and they offer honey or maple syrup as extras (which I did not choose), so I interpreted that to mean there would be no added sugar. I called after it was delivered and was told that it is indeed sweetened with agave syrup. I make these at home when I can with plain acai and the added fruit and granola make it perfectly sweet. I could only make it through a third of the portion and feel as though I've swallowed a bowl of candy.

We are from out of town so discovering this place was really interesting considering the location of such a grungy area in downtown. There are a lot of homeless and street parking only outside. There was only one single man working which I assume was the owner of the business who took our order and made everything. He was very friendly and welcoming. Although, the food was good the prices are pretty high as we paid $65 for just the two of us. I don't ever see myself coming back here but for anyone actually going to school or living in the area it seems like a great cafe to chill out.

This place has the worst customer service I have ever experienced. One of their lemonade bottles…read moreexploded on my counter in a million pieces like a bomb and the owner did nothing, barely even apologized. She actually made this frightening experience much worse with her terrible attitude. The bottle nearly blew up in my daughters face and could have been very serious if not deadly. I acknowledge it was left out and not in fridge for 2 days as label didn't say "must be refrigerated"... but does that mean it should explode like a Molotov cocktail? I will never shop here again and many people I have shared this story with have agreed.

****UPDATE The owners are extremely understanding and…read moreaccommodating, and it is very evident that they care a lot about their customers. They contacted me a day after to explain the situation, and have even taken steps to remove the Big Veg off the menu based on my suggestions/comments. The owners are two very heartful and dedicated women. It's wonderful to see such passion and care! ***END UPDATE Came here today for lunch with a friend! I ordered the Big Veg (a bunch of vegetables wrapped in collard greens) with their nutty bacon, and a side of sipping broth. My friend got their Seed to Sausage on beet bread, also with a side of sipping broth. The service there is very friendly, and it's a very hip and cool place! I love the concept, and it gives off a great vibe. However, my first experience was less than ideal... The Big Veg cost me $9, and with the sipping broth ($3), the total should have been $12. For some reason, they charged me $15, and so I asked for them to correct it. The correction took a while, but eventually they gave me back in cash. However, the cashier mistakenly gave me less than the amount owed, and overall, the entire refund process was quite slow. That being said, they were very apologetic and kind through it all, so the service was pretty good! My Big Veg fell short of expectations. First off, I must note that it is a take-out place. Although they had warned me beforehand to eat my wrap as a gyro (as the collard green is fragile and cannot sustain the content's weight), by the time I had arrived at my sit-down destination, the paper bag was soaked through. The sauce and dressing had leaked everywhere! It was a very messy eat, and despite being very careful, the sauce just kept dripping down my arms and in front of me. I would highly suggest that they reinforce the packaging for stronger protection (i.e., a double wrap). The wrap itself also lacked flavour, though that may have been in part due to my decision to get the nutty bacon (which was essentially just hemp, fried walnuts, with some smokey flavour). Maybe try the cheese or the actual bacon for more taste. The bone broth, though interesting, could have used more depth and flavour. Given my experiences, I would have given two stars - however, I had a bite of my friend's Seed to Sausage sandwich and it was quite tasty! I think it really depends on what menu item you ordered. Hers had the delicious smokey taste of the sausage, and was very clean and aesthetic!

A bright and refreshing surprise during my day in Stratford last month. I had gotten a somewhat…read moremusty impression of the town on previous visits in 2014 and 16, and was therefore pleased to find this place that gave off more of a contemporary sensibility. Pulp was welcoming from the moment I entered, as the owner correctly deduced I was a "visitor from the South" and encouraged me to choose whatever I wanted. All entrees are made right there while you wait - an extra bonus! The buddha bowl was a tasteful combination of veggies with tofu on the side. It served me well heading back over to the Shakespeare festival and then continuing on a meandering drive later that day. I wouldn't hesitate to seek out Pulp again when I have a chance to return to Stratford again in the future.

The man behind the counter (and also one of the owners if my Instagram stalking skills proved correct) was patient as I looked at all the wonderful menu options. You will not be disappointed with their selection: variety of options and plethora of flavors. Not to mention, the price is fair for the product you're receiving. I was also able to purchase a stainless steel straw to reuse again when I stop in! Stop in to check out the menu and at least take a look around this gorgeous place :)

I've always wanted to try Refresh, but never had the opportunity to have it until today, when I was…read moremaking a stroll through Downtown Guelph. They use the highest quality organic fruits and vegetables and are most famous for their cold-pressed juices. Instead of getting a cold-pressed juice, I decided to get one of their açai bowls. Here's my rundown: Food There were three açai bowls to choose from - classic, beauty, and soul. I got the beauty açai bowl which had the açai, avocado, coconut oil, and almond milk blend topped with bananas, granola, coconut flakes and fresh strawberries. The açai blend was smooth and rich in flavour while the fresh fruit and oats made for great flavours and textures. It was a very refreshing treat to get and had the perfect balance between all ingredients. Atmosphere Can't really comment on the atmosphere here because the store is quite small and has minimal seating. There were about 4 high chairs to sit but it's more meant to be used while you're waiting for your drinks or bowls. It's small like most downtown cafés and this place is more so for those grab and go type of people. Service Service was really friendly and the employee was helpful in helping me make a decision about the type of bowl to get. No complaints here; they were really inviting and patient with my indecisiveness. Price I paid $10 for the açai bowl! A little pricy but you're paying for quality organic food here so it's worth every dollar. Verdict Refresh is indeed a refreshing experience has they use only the finest organic fruits to make their products. I'm excited to return here to try their juices and other açai bowls. Definitely worth a try if you're roaming around downtown Guelph. A well-deserved 5/5 experience!

I can't really speak to their other drinks. I know they have teas and smoothies, but I would definitely come here for their fruit slushes, and I would definitely ask for pearls!
