I recently tried Nektar Juice Bar, and while the juices and smoothies seemed fresh, I found the…read moreprices a bit high compared to competitors. I went into this place excited to try something new. The smoothie i got tasted kind of bland and had chunks of powdery fruit - it tasted pretty similar to the $2.99 costco smoothie except...just like 3x the price. I understand i could have said no to the price and left but i wanted to give it a try anyway since my spirit was high and hopeful. I left feeling a bit sad. Most places in the area offer similar juices for $8-$9, while Nectar's were around $11-$12. The quality for my smoothie was definitely questionable whereas my friend's smoothie was very good, but if you're budget-conscious, it's something to keep in mind. Service was friendly, and the space is nice, so it's a decent spot if you don't mind paying a little extra.

And…read morehere's how to have the perfect 5 star experience: get an Energy Blast Acai Bowl and if they have them on the counter, snag a Paraibuna banana candy, too. Their acai is just perfect level of sweetness, but I've seen some variation in the texture from extremely thick to a bit runnier. They are super generous with the amount of peanut butter, which is super nutty and fragrant. Also hard to find a place that throws in Brazil nuts as well. I think at one point I came 3x in one week during the heat wave and getting this as a little pick me up is just undefeated. They also had some seasonal drinks the past few months and their dragonfruit smoothie is a bit on the sweeter side, but you can definitely taste the pitaya! Parking is easy and I've never seen too large of a line, but service isn't the fastest if you're in a rush. No bathroom from what I can tell, but plenty of seating to try your snacks immediately.

Bellden Cafe has it all, we've already gone several times I'm obsessed with the ube mochi waffle, it is soooo delicious (not too sweet, incredible texture and flavor). Their matcha is also lovely, I got matcha with rose syrup both times I went (so immaculate). I've turned into a bit of a matcha snob, so always looking for some good options and they hit the spot. The service is incredible, literally the people working there are the nicest people everrrr. Even on a super busy weekend morning, they were so accommodating, so friendly and even remembered us from just one visit! Really fantastic team, they really make the whole experience even MORE lovely. And the interior is jussssst so gorg!!! The decor is immaculate, there's lots of space (even when it was crowded), would be a perfect place to work from during the week, even their outdoor tables were very clean and cutie. Absolutely love, this has become a new staple of ours since moving to the east side! brunch girlies rise!!!

This spot has received numerous awards and recognition over the years, so I was glad to finally…read morecheck it out with a friend on a recent Sunday morning. When we walked in, most of the indoor tables were taken, but we got lucky and snagged one right as a couple was leaving. They have a pretty extensive drink menu of coffees, teas and smoothies alongside a food selection of açaí and yogurt bowls, breakfast sandwiches, waffles, toasts and salads. Prices do seem rather steep for food (particularly for the waffles), however, this business has a great philanthropic mindset that helps explain the price points. Whenever someone orders a specialty drink, they donate some of the proceeds to a charity. + LATTE w/ MISO MAPLE syrup ($5 for 12 oz. + $1 for syrup): The coffee itself was so good - robust, with a perfect balance between the espresso and milk. I was so excited to try this unique syrup flavor, but sadly, I didn't taste it at all. No umami from the miso and not even a hint of maple. I'm not sure if this syrup is just extremely subtle, or if it was simply forgotten. I really hope it's not the latter, since I paid extra for it. + MATCHA CHIA PUDDING ($13): The bowl may look small, but it was deep and the portion turned out to be filling. A Greek yogurt base was beautifully layered with matcha chia pudding, a strawberry-rhubarb compote, granola and rose. I loved the compote which had the perfect sweetness of ripe strawberries and a little tang from the rhubarb. The matcha pudding was on the milder side, but smooth in consistency, contrasting nicely with the crunchy granola. My friend ordered the Açaí Bowl and really enjoyed it. The serving looked reasonable for the price as well. Overall, the two of us had a wonderful time here catching up over a healthy brunch! Tip: They have two small rooms available to reserve for parties of 4-6 if you're looking to secure seating for a group.

As a Brazilian, I can confirm that it is REALLY hard to find authentic Açaí. Forget what they offer…read moreat your go-to smoothie shop and whatever you tried in Hawaii. Chances are, you haven't tried legit açai yet (unless you've gone to Brazil). Tropical Berry is one of the rare places in WA that sells real açai. You know is a legit spot if they have condensed milk and milk powder (which is what most people add on in Brazil). I recommend this place to everyone I know, especially if they're not from Brazil. Their açai is delicious, their "coxinha" is one of the best ones I've ever had (please try it with the green mayo). It's always worth the drive for me to come here! Tropical berry is truly a hidden gem!

We were on a bike ride from Seattle and looking for somewhere to stop on our ride, somewhere with…read moresmoothies or fruity somethings. And a search on Yelp brought us here! What a find! I probably have biked past this place a hundred times, but had no idea it was there. My girlfriend suggested we get açai bowls, their specialty. Apparently she and her daughter had lived on açai bowls for years. I'd never had had one, but was willing to try something new. OMG! They were so good and refreshing! We both got different toppings--we went a little crazy with them in fact, the fruit and stuff would barely fit in the bowl!--and we downed both our small bowls. I got banana, strawberry, blueberry, pineapple and peanut butter. The latter sounded weird, but it tasted awesome, especially when mixed with the açai. My girlfriend got the same, but got granola instead of pineapple. I also ordered a pressed sugar cane drink. Yup, made from real sugar canes. Sounds weird, and one would think would be extremely sweet. But no, not super sweet, and surprisingly refreshing. I remember gnawing on sugar canes when I was a kid, so the flavor was familiar. But a drink was a lot easier to consume!! I'll definitely get it again! The place is tiny. Only two tables. And, although it's across Bothell Way from the bike trail, you really have to cross at one of the lights, before or after. A little hassle, but so worth it!!

I ordered a hot tea with honey and went back to ask for more honey because I didn't taste any. I was told I would have to pay for honey from the person who took my order originally. I said I already paid for honey and she said yes I know. So, they are charging for additional added honey when there was no honey to taste. Now they give one bag of tea regardless of size ordered and charge for ore bags and anything added. Why is the owner and management of this coffee shop so concerned with their employee conversations, culture when they have little regard and very little attention to customer experience and satisfaction. Months ago, the district manager made sure to tell employees to not allow me to split my two bags of tea into two orders because I wasn't paying for the added honey. Seriously?!?!! When I used to spend $30 a day every day they want to give yet another reason to not give them business. Ugghhh! Customers are numbers and not people. Point made over and over now. I guess I am a very slow learner or hoped for better.

I love pressed!…read more Looks like Kirkland is the last local location for greater Seattle. I've always liked their pressed juices with ginger & cayenne pepper. They've always had the açai bowl and the last few years they've rolled out with other soft serve options like tropical, soft serve vanilla, & chocolate! You can create your own bowl. They also have protein bowls, nutty bowls, collagen bowls. Various fresh fruit. 3 different sizes too. Keep in mind or everything is vegan, but all the soft server is vegan. A few seats inside.

Overall it was evenly distributed and made for delicious bowl! This is one of the greater smoothie bowls I've had and it was made quickly. The worker was quick and efficient in making it.

The staff helping us recommended we just choose another bowl without that specific fruit. It was kinda hard because most of the bowls had the same fruits in them so that limited our choice to one-- the bowl we ended up getting.
