    This is a clean, healthy option for breakfast and coffee! For food options, they have crepes, sandwiches, smoothies, and acai bowls. There are a couple tables if you want to linger, but it's a small space overall. The servers are friendly and accommodating. I had the vegetable crepe and dragon fruit acai bowl, and both were delicious. The crepe itself is really light. The prices are on the higher end for the portion sizes.

    Yum yum! Had a hankering for boba and this place satisfies that need. I was in the area and went…read morehere to get a boba freeze. One of my favorite things in the world is Taro so getting a Taro freeze with boba and clear jelly sounds like heaven to me. This is exactly what I got and it was delicious! It wasn't too cold and while there was boba, it didn't overpower the drink itself and neither did the jelly. As expected, this place is overpowered by little youngins with a sweet tooth but I can't blame them. It's not like they made the wait any more longer or shorter. The customer service was good and quick, nothing to complain about. I will continue to come here when I have a boba itch. I've also tried their bingsu which was also really good but....alot. It's packed with red beans which are sweet and delicious, ice cream and fresh fruit. I know for a fact, I cannot finish it on my own so I suggest sharing it with someone else. Other than that, it is certainly a delectable and yummy dessert. Highly recommend. Overall, I will continue to keep coming back here for you Lincolnshire/BG locals, I would encourage you to do the same. Prices are decent and your sweet tooth will be satisfied for sure!

    There's never a bad time for boba! I often swing by here when I need a little treat during the day…read more The options are endless but they have plenty of menu suggestions to help you make a selection. My go tos are banana coconut with mango jelly or just plain avocado. They do have tons of great options but. I find myself gravitating towards those most frequently. The staff is always super friendly, and the service is quick. Even when they have a large group or the shop is crowded you can count on them to have your drink up super quick.

I came here on a hot summer day after dining for lunch outside at a restaurant nearby. If I would have known earlier about this place, I would have saved some room to try their acai bowls. Parking - lots of free parking near Outdoor walk through option available for those that have dogs and want to order / pick up from outside. Atmosphere - great to come hangout with friends, family or by yourself to get some work / reading done. Washroom - the toilets don't flush well and it wasn't the most clean washroom I've seen.. Costs - ranges from $5.99-$13+ depending on what you order.. may be costly for a drink but it's yummy & fresh fruit! Handcrafted bowls, breakfast bowls, smoothies to wellness shots Pink Flamingo Smoothie ($8.59 small / $10.59 regular) - the smoothie isn't only pretty in color but also tastes great! It is healthy with its mixture of fruits and not too sweet, just right on sweetness level (doesn't tastes like those drinks loaded with sugar)..if you like extremely sweet drinks maybe ask for more agave nectar added I'll be back to try their acai bowls if I'm in the area

    What an incredible operation! Great menu, lots of options, high quality ingredients, GF options…read more(yay for me!), and facility is clean and inviting. Not sure if it was the owner who gave me a sample of the peanut butter granola and peanut butter chia pudding, but it was a perfect helping just "to try" and, wow, but my heart was warmed when a person of need walked into the place and she she handed him a banana. It was clear that the interaction was routine, but she had no problem giving him something to eat and it made me so joyous to see such a charitable thing. She also spoke to him like a person, not as someone that would be less because he has less. Clearly this place is run by a good person too. Bonus: the young man behind the counter made a little too much for my small smoothie so upgraded my size at no charge. Thank and God bless!

And I'm so glad I actually listened. It is located in the strip mall with a lot of shared parking however, the businesses that share this trip, Malk are really rather popular so finding parking can be a little bit tricky. The benefit those at all the parking is free. I will see the menu is quite extensive whether you want a bowl or a smoothie or something else. I did opt for a bowl and so did my friend as you can see from the pictures. I have to say everything was super delicious very generous, considering the price and because there was a promotion it was really very generous. I'm glad I wasn't hunting for any particular ingredient as it was listed on the very detailed menu and so I would definitely be coming back here again because it is super fresh very friendly and fast.

    Need some healthy options and juices during my business trip. Found this location of TruBowl near…read moreChicago area. Good selections and fast service. Order small craft with create your own bowl. The unlimited topping was excellent until it too full. They did discontinue to offer the cold pressed juices one. Located in the shopping center, with Panda Express and Fitness Center. Small little diner with 3 tables and height counter tables against the wall.

    Smoothie and Boba places are nice luxuries on occasion but I'm not addicted to them…read more Decent place that I tried because of a T-Mobile promotion and it was good but a bit pricey for what is essentially a dessert that I often make at home. Service was adequate but not amazing, and the ambiance seemed reminiscent of what Baskin Robbins was before the corporate conglomeration ir partnership with DD and gas stations etc.

    No response from anyone after submitting a report via the Tropical Smoothie Cafe phone number…read more((770) 821-1900) and web form and being assured that it had been "escalated." I received these assurances multiple times as a I called back repeatedly over the course of a couple of weeks now. So the only word of response was a local store manager named Hanna telling me that I have to drive in to get a replacement, and offering some "VIP" card that was not explained. Despite me bringing it up multiple times, no acknowledgement has been made of how strange it is that they require the customer pick up corrections to delivery orders. They just act like I never said it. Even pizza places deliver replacement orders all the time. This Tropical Smoothie Cafe ignored my direct message here as well. Conclusion: They want you to go away if you're inconvenient. Don't waste your time with their feedback form or phone number. The people working the phones are nice, but they clearly just hand the issue to the local store, who are apparently encouraged to ignore whatever issues they don't want to address.

    Things I love about Awesome Juice bar: - they're open every…read moreday! - friendly staff and service - the acai bases are made to order, and the menu options are extensive, e.g. peanut butter acai, various fruits, etc. I originally thought for example the mango and peach were pieces of fruit on top of the acai base, but it's all blended together AND THEN you can add 4 toppings. A couple areas of opportunity: - the acai base could use more flavor. I didn't get much peach flavor coming through in mine. - the fill (amount of acai base in the bowl) seemed slightly low. The 16oz bowls start at $12.90, which is about $0.50-$1 less than other equivalent offerings in the North Shore. Parking is tight in this strip mall lot (by Subway/Jiffy Lube). Have an awesome day!

    I've been wanting to try awesome juice bar since they opened. People that work in the area and live…read morein the area seem to swear by their smoothies and bowls . I finally made it to the juice bar and ordered a berry bowl. Their base has an amazing consistency! They make it right there when you order it so it's not premade and frozen. I would say, I think the base needed a little more flavor ...so next time, I'll probably see if they have some vanilla protein powder that they can blend into the base. The toppings I got were strawberries, homemade granola! (it's amazing! Pick this one for sure), blueberries and an almond drizzle. The almond drizzle is a lot more than just a drizzle, which I found appealing, but if you're looking for only a little bit of almond butter, you might want to say "go easy on the almond butter". Overall, I am thoroughly happy with my bowl.
