New ownership, bowls and smoothies are delicious and literally double the size of other local açaí places

I loved everything about this place. Mehar was so kind and let me try all of their açaí bowl bases. All the fruits were fresh... my bowl was delicious and not too sweet. I loved it. And the vegan mushroom soup was among the best soups I've ever had. I'll be coming back here every time I visit the area. read more

The new management is great! They are so kind and make everything fresh! Always happy with what I get here!

I love the drinks and treats here. In fact from a quality standpoint - the best. Delicious. I am a regular. Time after time, I just find the service increasingly slowwwwwwwwww. Have to plan a 25 minute hit to get a smoothie? No way. I would mark the 5 stars if they could just please optimize on time served. Needs to be less than 5 minute wait for smoothie or going to lose some loyal customers. Was there change in ownership? read more

The ingredients are the difference maker here, The juices, bowls, and food is all locally sourced, the owner who is extremely friendly and knowledgeable told me herself. This is a gem in the Bucks county area, and is a must hit spot for anyone looking to improve their health and do it with delicious, fresh superfoods. I highly recommend everything here read more

I ordered a BLT-A for $13.50. I had to ask them to put more tempeh. They literally had just two pieces of tempeh thinly sliced cut in half. That is unacceptable. I talked to the wait staff who informed me that the recipe only say two slices cut in half. read more

I absolutely LOVED greenstraw! I was craving something healthy and delicious and voila, there it was. Fruit quality was great and I had enough toppings for every bite (this is CRUCIAL!). Would recommend getting their bowls for sure! The one thing was that I asked if I could sub almond butter instead of the coconut and granola (both of which oddly give me a stomach ache) but I was charged for adding it. Not that it was too much extra, but I would not consider that a substitution if you have to pay extra. read more

Greenstraw - Pitaya Bowl with almond butter (no granola or coconut) - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Newtown, Pennsylvania

Overwhelmingly surprised! I have never been before and I was sent to Green Straw to pick up an Acai bowl for the wife and ended up ordering the BLT-A for myself. I am not usually a "plant-based" type of person, so I was not expecting it to be as great as a BLT with real bacon, but it was! I loved the flavors of it all. I will be back for sure! Thanks! P.S. I have never written a Yelp review, but it was so good that I felt compelled to get on here and write one. read more

Açaí bowl is to die for. My first time here I was speechless at how good it was. Have been back at least 25 times and am never disappointed. Amazing juices too. read more

Overpriced & poor-tasting. The juices are ridiculously higher in price than average and the smoothies are mediocre at best for approximately $10 each. read more

The Greenstraw is our go to place for everything healthy. We drive about 30 minutes at least once a week to get Açai bowls, smoothies and other healthy items from their menu. (There is so much to choose from). Their Açai bowls are the best I've ever tasted. Their homemade Granola is amazing. Smoothies, delicious! Jack, Annabella & the other employees are so friendly, courteous & knowledgeable and go out of their way to make sure their customers get what they ordered. It's definitely worth the trip! read more

Giving a 4 instead of a 3 because I love the concept, and I LOVE being able to come in and get fresh smoothies. I want this to get better. That said - I feel like the service vacillates bigtime between who is working. On Saturday morning the staff was wonderful. I got a smoothie for me, cold pressed juice, and a smoothie for my nephew. I got energy balls and other things too and between 3 transactions spent around $80. It was quick and easy and painless and I LOVE supporting a local business with a great mission. (The one small thing that day was that I wanted to get fresh juice for the celery juice cleanse I've been doing. It turns out they no longer sell fresh juice so I bought 2-day old cold pressed juice. I've been keeping a log of how I feel each day w/ the celery and cold pressed juice definitely doesn't give me the same benefits as fresh juice. But that's OK, my juicer came in today.) My nephew loved his Saturday smoothie so much that he asked me to come back on Sunday morning. All morning we kept watching the clock till 9am so he could get another smoothie that he loved so much. When we came in, I asked for the very same 2-ingredient smoothie he got the day before. I was met with all kinds of issues (and remarkably, I think it was the owner who was giving me the problems but I could be wrong). On Saturday, I ordered his smoothie and there were no questions asked. On Sunday, she insisted that I needed to have some kind of a "base" (banana or dates), that I needed to have some kind of a juice, and she made sure to tell the cashier to up-charge me for not getting banana. She also told me one of the ingredients I painlessly got on Saturday was something that was "never" in stock. Luckily she came back later and told me she found some in the freezer. She didn't apologize, but I remain grateful that she told me. I heard her tell her co-worker "I'm old. I'm under stress." With that said though, she still made me add juice to the smoothie which is not what my nephew wanted. He's picky -- and even though he gave the smoothie a fair shot, he didn't like it. That was $10 wasted. I'd ordered another smoothie too. My Sunday one was nowhere as good as Saturday's and wasn't filled to the top. I've been here in the past and had other excellent experiences, so I'm keeping the 4 and hoping that we can get some consistency in this place. The concept is EXTRAORDINARY. read more

Way over priced. $10 for a small/ regular smoothie, and added fee's to sub ingredients. Tasted like a $4 smoothie. The vibe in there isn't great. Don't waste your money. read more

My son and I were looking for a light dinner and decided to try Greenstraw Smoothies on Sycamore Street, the main drag in Newtown, Bucks County. It is a new place on the nicely redeveloped commercial district. The menu consists of a long list of healthy drinks with fresh fruits and veggies, along with nutritional supplements to suit your particular need - Maca, Hemp protein, Flax Seed, Chia, Spirulina, Wheatgrass Juice, etc. The foundation of the smoothies are cow milk alternatives like Almond or Coconut Milk, Yogurt, and Fruit Juices. The combinations are surprisingly refreshing and tasty. I ordered a Leo's Favorite, consisting of Almond Milk, Apple Juice, Banana, Peanut Butter, Strawberries, Raspberries, and Greens. The resultant reddish blend was thick and smooth, but simply sucked through a straw (Yes. It was green). It was a pleasure to imbibe. My son had The Mango Tree, with Coconut Milk, Mango Juice, Banana, Mango Pieces, Pineapple, and Greens. The mix came out a ruddy greenish mash that was also quite good. We both smiled on first drought, and sampled each others drinks. I was definitely satisfied with my liquid dinner and was not hungry again last night. Young man needed a bit more sustenance after finishing his homework. This is definitely a worthy spot for a healthy drink. The prices are reasonable at $5.75 for the middle sized concoction, which was quite filling. There is also fair trade coffee available, but that will wait for another day. Good luck, Greenstraw. read more

YES! Finally, I found a a juice/smoothie place close to me that I like. Smoothie King does not always cut it for me. Watch out for high calorie drinks posing as "healthy". I love that they have the option for wheatgrass, chia, flax, and other add-ins. The staff was very friendly and patient as I read over their entire menu and finally ordered a customized drink. They have green juices for fanatics like me and some kid/sweet tooth friendly options as well. I am excited to try more. read more

Place is a fiasco ok let's start with the prices if you want to pay 50 to 75 dollars for a couple of juices and a peanut And butter jelly sandwich go for it - they staff here are train wrecks always a new set of under 18 year old girls that seem all over worked and underplayed that in the more then a dozen times I have went into the store are always all in a bad mood plus from what the rumors around town have been they do not use organic material which really means nothing from a legal standpoint and also the owner is never around the place will probably be gone in 6 months read more

Great smoothies But, If you ever want to feel invisible, stop in here. I was the ONLY person in line for a solid minute, a young woman walked in behind me and the gentleman behind the counter looked up and started helping her and ignored me. The young, entitled, woman in line ignored me as well. I love Newtown. read more

This place is so friendly. The food is fresh and fantastic. The staff (especially Kate) are exceptional! Definitely get the SUPER BOWL. Great option for us vegans as well. We will be back read more

The various Açaí and other bowls are delicious! The Super Food Bowl is my favorite. Yum! Service was quick during my recent visit.

The older I get (early 60s), the more conscious I've become of all the toxins that have been accumulating in my body: glyphosate (crop spray), endocrine disruptors (plastic bottles and storage containers), depleted soil, high food miles, poor (yet seemingly innocuous) air quality (usually ~inside~our newly constructed buildings), fluoride in the drinking water, Planet Smoothie franchises--it's a toxic world. I was referred to Green Straw by the health food store nearby and was so delighted to find many of the nutrition hack ingredients I have at home. Also, I can just create my own low carb smoothie, which is very exciting! Now, my smoothie concoction is not cheap, but I can ~feel~ the nutrition. As I, hopefully, continue to enjoy the ageing process, investing in my health has become my top priority. Thank you to the proprietress and mom with high standards. Now if even the nice restaurants would stop cooking with canola oil........ read more

Quick service, cute atmosphere, love the location and the Immunibee smoothie is delicious. I tried the Leo's favorite and wasn't a fan. Definitely was a return customer and would choose Greenstraw over Playa bowl any day. read more

The green love açaí bowl was really tasty!! It felt very healthy but at the same time delicious! Small space but definitely seats available. Great place to grab a healthy juice, smoothie, snacks... read more

when you come for a quick smoothie and they have 6 workers, empty line, and they forget about my order and doesn't make it til 30 minutes later when there's a huge rush. AND when she gave my smoothie, it wasnt even filled up to the top. and then she asks do you want more blackberries. like are you kidding, I waited 30 minutes and you give me a half filled smoothie I paid $8 for? don't recommend here. management should train their staff better. it's people to people relationships you build loyalty and first impressions with. read more

Good smoothie spot in Newtown. I just moved back home from a city so even having an option for açaí bowls and smoothies are nice. The girls working have always been nice and friendly. I've had the black beauty smoothie a few times and it was really good! I haven't tried a açaí bowl yet but I will! read more

It's okay. It's very healthy which is nice but it is not my favorite out of all the smoothie bowls I have tried

Very good smoothie. I went with the tropical dream which was unquestionably satisfying. They had a huge menu with a lot of great sounded concoctions. Prices a bit steep but nothing too out of the norm for a local smoothie joint. 16 oz $6.75. Kiddie size $4.50. Worth it to me to get the extra ounces. Cool ambience in the store though a little cramped in here on a Sunday. Would definitely go back if I were wanting a boost of smoothie goodness. Pretty friendly staff too though the wait times were a tad long, it's worth it to know it's fresh and made carefully. read more

I really love places like this exists amidst a chaotic pandemic. Clean, chill and pretty quick service. The staff busts their humps to make sure. I really wish more local spots used fresh and organic ingredients. Shout out to the Amazing team for doing a fantastic job! You ARE appreciated read more

Wow wow wow! Love this place!!!! Came here with my mum and we enjoyed the Original Açaí Bowls on the back patio of Greenstraw. While we were sitting out there, one of the owners came out and chatted with my mum and I. He was so sweet and passionate about how they source their ingredients and how his wife has designed all of the recipes. I usually go to Playa Bowls up the street but omg I'm never going there again. Loveeeeeee love love Greenstraw! read more

One of the best places in Newtown always friendly and delicious. I saw some reviews complaining of the price but you get what you pay for. It's delicious and fresh, if you want a cheap $4 smoothie it will taste like a $4 smoothie. I highly recommend the Tropical Dream & Cha Cha Chocolate Banana if you need something sweet! read more

Absolutely adore this place and it's staff. Always greeted with a smile! They're smoothies and bowls are far above the best around. I grab a "Georgia on my mind" whenever I can. And the staff is always patient with my add ins! Lol! Great for family's on the go, and a quick stop to and from work. The weather is getting warmer, treat yourself to the greenstraw experience!! Sourced organic products! This place is a must go for anyone passing through or living in newtown! One love!! read more

So I received a nasty message from one of the employees. This is clearly the girl who was working that day. Profile made today? No other reviews? Judging by the word choice, I think it's safe to say a girl wrote this and not "Tom p". Maybe instead of being rude to customers, you can try being nice and accommodating. Geez I even have bad experiences with the employees when I'm across the county!! Overall, this does not shock me and cannot expect much more. read more

Love my homies at Greenstraw - really good stuff. I'm all about my animal and fish homies too but yo - these paper straws? "They gots to GO". Or get a different version please. I'm like 27% of the way into it and I'm getting lightheaded from trying to get a little bit through a soggy straw. Go baller status. Get some bamboo sticks so we can look like pandas out in Newtown. *****again - I love this place. I only write reviews when I actually care about a place***** read more

Anticipated my visit here. I'm all about going somewhere with healthy options, and honest ones at that. All their smoothies are made with fresh ingredients. No dairy. No added sugars. The only sweetener they use is Stevia. Locally sourced. Mostly organic. I won't complain about the prices, because there is natural love going into their stuff. I walked in after hiking around for a few hours with an indefinite need for a refuel. It was cute and simple inside with a friendly feeling. The girl working the register greeted me immediately. It took me awhile to decide what I wanted (there are SO many options). I wasn't rushed though. I went for the Leo's Favorite, which is a combination of fruits with some peanut butter. While waiting, I was offered a sample of the "Greensicle," which was really good. It was nice of her to pass that my way, even though I already ordered. I continue to look at other things they had, in which I kind of wanted all of it! I was handed my smoothie and went out on the deck to sit. I feel like I caught some weird looks from some of the customers around, which seemed to be more professional than myself. I was dirty and sweaty, fresh off exercise in the woods...so yeah, I didn't fit in too well. Not the fault of the establishment though. Anyway, my smoothie was pretty damn thick and refreshing. It was different than any other smoothie I've ever had. Nothing tasted fake or weird about it. I feel like I should have made a different decision on what I chose, but I'll definitely be back again to try other things. All of it sounded great! read more

My all-time favorite smoothie joint! They buy mainly organic produce, buying conventionally only when approved by the environmental working group, or when it's locally sourced and sustainable practices are used. I refuse to go anywhere else. We desperately need more small businesses like this who truly care and are knowledgeable about nutrition and health (no more corporations or chains). The prices may shock some but not me because food is medicine. One smoothie bowl fills you up because it's a literal meal! It has their homemade delicious granola on the top and bottom. Ever heard of Spirulina, Ashwaghanda root, or Moringa? They are some of the many Adaptogenic herbs they offer (I.e. Spirulina contains a powerful plant-based protein called phycocyanin. Research shows this may have antioxidant, pain-relief, anti-inflammatory, and brain-protective properties) The staff are very friendly, hardworking, and willing to accommodate customers. The inside environment is very cute - seats near the windows with lots of sunshine. Outdoor seating in the front and back is perfect for warm weather. read more

Fresh fruit, friendly staff, and a 90s throwback playlist... What more could you ask for from a local smoothie shop?! I had been wanting to check out GreenStraw for a while and finally made my way over on a Saturday afternoon. I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of the menu! They had a healthy treat for every kind of taste! I decided to go with a Matcha bowl (I usually get Acai bowls but decided to switch it up). Both my friend and I asked the cashier a few questions and she answered them all for us. Our orders took a bit long to come out but we weren't in a rush so it was ok! Everything we ordered tasted great! I will say the menu seems a bit overpriced to me but that's not a surprise considering the location in central Newtown. I'll definitely be back! read more

Greenstraw - Matcha bowl! Yum :D - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Newtown, Pennsylvania

What a great place...you feel welcome as soon as you walk in. You can tell it's not a "chain" just by the attitude of the staff. A welcome addition to Newtown. There are plenty of "smoothie" chains exploiting "healthy" with sugar-laden drinks around but this place is the real deal! Put Greenstraw on your list of must haves in Bucks County! read more

Went here for the first time with a friend who has been many times. The menu is filled with options and you can add extra flavors - peanut butter, cocoa, etc. I found myself deciding between many different smoothies and ended up getting the Mango Tree. It was delicious and I've been looking forward to the next time I go to try more. read more

The smoothies are healthy and tasted great. The prices are surprisingly high. They make Starbucks and Jamba Juice look affordable. read more

First off I walked in and Bob Marley was playing...huge points in my book! :) Staff was super friendly! Came in finally after a high recommendation from a friend. Tried the seasonal 'CarrotCopia' and oh my goodness!! It tastes just like a delicious carrot cake in a healthy drinkable form! I will definitely be back for more and to try the whole menu! Keep up the great job guys! read more

Got the Green Love bowl today and was disappointed. The base wasn't blended well enough and there were several huge chunks of acai. They don't have the made to order fresh pressed juices anymore which is a bummer. If I go back maybe I'll give the Pitaya bowl a shot. read more
