A friend recently told me that Jamba just isn't what it used to be, and it's got me thinking. They're right. I started going to Jamba Juice when they first moved into the Crescent Ave location in Pleasant Hill, when I was still attending the Teen Scene in Pleasant Hill Park. It's certainly been a minute since those days, and while I've been to this location three times this year, I don't know why I keep coming back. I think I'm searching for something that no longer exists - a reasonably-priced, fruit-packed meal in a cup. It feels like each time I go to 'Jamba' (now ostensibly not a Juice place), the menu looks more and more like a fast-food dessert menu - which I'd have no problem with if I weren't wanting the good old Jamba Juice of yore. I'm now finding myself browsing smoothie recipes on the Internet, ready to dust off the blender. If you're in a pinch with the kids & need a quick sugar fix, Jamba will cut it. If you're looking for relative health, ditch the waffle-whip bowls & stay home. read more

Love coming to this Jamba Juice because it's never busy. This location it's right across one of my favorite stores & in an amazing shopping center. The workers are always friendly, its always pretty quiet in there . First time trying the açaí bowl & it did not disappoint, i added the coco cream which just tied the whole bowl together. One of my favorites drinks at Jamba juice is the white gummy! read more

Second year of celebrating Smoothie Day at Jamba Juice and their $1 Mango-A-Go-Go or Strawberry Whirl Smoothie. This store has their act together. Person at the door was responsible crowd control - keeping it to 10 people max in the store. The smoothie makers were bringing out trayfuls of smoothies to a counter to the side. After ordering, we took our receipt and picked up our smoothies at the counter. The employees were running a well-oiled machine to get quickly through the long line of people. Very impressed. The smoothies themselves - extremely good for $1. If I had to pay full price on these (my real opinion), I thought the Mango was very good, but a little on the sweet and runny side. The strawberry was a little lacking in flavor (almost no strawberry, a little banana) and too icy. After drinking two of them halfway, we combined to make a half mango/half strawberry, which turned out really well. read more

I love Jamba Juice but unfortunately I'm to old school for the kiosk ordering system. I don't see well and it's difficult for me to use these. Nobody at the time of my purchase was available they simply pointed to the kiosk ordering systems. That's when someone took the opportunity to take advantage of my difficulty reading the small print. I took off my prescription 600 dollars distance/driving glasses off to try and read the system and when I realized I didn't pay for my daughters bottle water I had to a second time use the kiosk. Weirdly enough a man sitting to my left in the waiting bench said to his wife in child in Spanish which I understand to "pick them up" I thought maybe the child dropped something standing behind me. I payed no mind. The reality is that they were my classes on the counter next to the kiosk. My 600 dollars tortoiseshell Ray-Ban's with prescription lenses. When I walked out into the sun I realized what I had done and went to retrieve them. Then I remembered the man on the couch telling his family standing behind to "pick them up" in Spanish and it occurred to me that they took my glasses when I was distracted.. I returned and they were gone, and so were my glasses. Can we not go back to a world where people engage with each other and us old people who can't see well can just tell the person working there I want a orange dream machine with an immunity boost like I have for years? Your Kiosk is had to read, and also the bright sun on the screen makes it blurry.. the whole situation is difficult and I had my expensive glasses stolen while I was distracted. Normally I would push them up on my forehead but when you look down squinting to read they fall off my face so I set them down to n the counter. Now they are gone. What has the world come to now? It's just awful.. read more

I normally don't do yelp reviews but I want to bring this to the store and future customers concern. Last Sunday evening (Feb 22), my girlfriend and I stopped in to get a chocolate mood smoothie and a banana/peanut butter yogurt bowl. Everything tasted fine but afterwards me and my girlfriend have been sicker than ever. Throwing up, indigestion, nausea, and diarrhea. Doctors said it was food contamination and most likely is a stomach flu or food poisoning. Still dealing with this to this day almost 4 days later. I'm writing those in hopes that employees take into consideration of how important it is to wash their hands properly and handle food correctly to prevent contamination. I hope this message prevents people from experiencing the same thing my girlfriend and I did. Have a great day, most likely won't be returning to this establishment. read more

I stopped into Road Runner Sports next door after having dental work so I decided to stop into this Jamba Juice location and order a Mango A Go Go. It really hit the spot. The service was friendly and helpful and the space was clean. I ended up ordering via the monitor and taking a seat to wait until my name was called. The drink and straw came out quickly and the smoothie was fantastic. All in all, I would definitely drop in again. read more

Service was great, the guy who took our order was very friendly and welcoming and our drinks were amazing especially on that super hot day. Service was super quick and the place was spotless. They had straws and napkins filled to the rim and thought this was a wonderful location. read more

The two guys there were absolutely amazing! Not only did they make sure my drink taste amazing there was even leftovers when I mentioned an extra cup for my kid. Absolutely hands-down the best Jamba juice I've been to in over a decade. They helped me remember why I still rock with Jamba juice. read more

For the most part I like this location. I think Jamba Juice food is low quality, but the emphasize in the smoothies anyways. I feel like my drink is always on spot with flavor , but it melts so quickly like they didn't add enough ice or too much juice. Staff doesn't really acknowledge unless you stand there and say you're picking up your order. So service is okay, could be improvement on acknowledgement. The environment is clean and modern. Nothing too fancy. read more

Ordered a smoothie and açaí bowl; smoothie was decent as per usual Jamba Juice standard. However, açaí bowl was quite underwhelming featuring less than half the bowl as açaí with the rest as toppings. Was hoping for a fuller item after being charged full price. read more

Probably today was the hottest day in our Quarantine here at work. It was awesome that my manager and I decided to go for Jamba Juice: it's been a minute and it was 80 degrees out here, so we ordered through Door Dash. I went for the Surf Rider; but I need to recommend that Energy Green boost, as, I felt better through out the day and made it worth the extra $0.50! A bit sour, but the flavor was still there. My manager went for the 'White Gummi Bear' smoothie. I never even knew they had that, but my manager was rarely nice, and gave me a sample. It was 'Beary' delicious Again, I didn't go in to the location, so I can't rate the service or the establishment itself, but through Door Dash, try it out. That's why Jamba Juice is on top when it comes to refreshing smoothies and drinks! Way to make my day :) read more

Stopped at this Jamba Juice because it was so hot! There was no one in line so the service was really fast. I ordered on the self service kiosk and the employee let me know that it would be out soon and I received my bowl in 3 min. It was pretty tasty and refreshing. read more

Everytime I come after 8pm, not even close to 8:30pm - I want to order an açaí bowl after my work out and the workers always say no because they already cleaned the back. Take it off the menu then if you are not serving açaí bowls after 8pm. I would give no stars for this location. read more

The drinks are fresh and tasty. The staff are generally friendly and knowledgeable. Some afternoon or early morning blahs occasionally. Clean and inviting read more

So I was walking by, decided to have the new drink. THAT I NEVER HAD BEFORE! After a minute of drinking the lemonade thing, I finished. I am not a fast drinker but 3/4 of the drink was ice 1/4 of the real drink was it. It is a waste of money. And to mention, it was my first time so i didn't know to say "No ice pls," like they could've warned us of all the ice! DON'T BUY IT, IT IS A SCAM! Plus the drink was sour and gross, tasted HORRIBLE! read more

Smoothie was decent, the service was great the staff were really quick, but place didn't look too lively.

I love smoothies. Strawberry is my favorite and Mango, I have been here twice on my way to visit friends. I love that it's open early and convenient. It has a shared parking lot and there is alway spaces. read more

My girlfriend and I went for smoothies at 820pm, when they close at 9. I asked about their seasonal pumpkin bowl and drink since we hardly go there. Th supervisor was extremely rude and irritable when answering about the bowl. He treated us unkindly. My girlfriend even gave them benefit of the doubt and said "thank you" on the way out, but no response. At least the place was clean. So if you're ok with bad treatment but good drinks, then this is the place for you! Least to say, my girlfriend and I won't be going to Jamba Juice again. read more

Phone number is wrong. If you call the 714 number you get the San Ramon Jamba. I thought I was ordering my drink in advance and got here but they had to inform me that I didn't order from them.

This jamba is in a large shopping center. It's right on a corner so very convenient. The guy got my order wrong with charging for an extra drink. The drinks were good but it is a little expensive read more

Curly haired kid locked his doors at 7:50PM. He looked inconvenienced when I asked if they were still open. Said his blenders overheated. So I asked if all them overheated. Hmmmm...Long story short, his blenders seemed to work fine and I got out of there at 7:56. I think his ratio in his ingredients were a bit off or he was just in a real rush to leave since my drink didn't seem to taste the way it should. But Ok. Maybe he had a date. Who knows. read more

Stopped by this Jamba Juice on the way on Sacramento from Oakland. It was not busy when we arrived but ended up being busy by the time we received our order. The staff was friendly and worked as fast as they could. They seemed to have been understaffed but they did the best the could at the time. My brother and I ordered a couple bowls and small smoothies and pretzel. Everything tasted amazing and held us over for our short ride to Sacramento. We arrived early in the morning and found the location from Google Maps, it was easy to find and found parking right out front of the location. read more

Jamba - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Concord, California

Every Jamba Juice is always the same. Same offerings, same juices, same food, same quality. So to write about their food at this location would be a mistake, since Jamba usually always consistently delivers a fresh smoothie, squeezed juice or prepared food item to my liking. I don't remember the last time I came to this location, but my Acai bowl craving was real and I wanted to treat myself to a midday bowl (Vitality is overpriced, and Jamba's bowl is pretty yum). The place was nearly empty yet a few people were stopping by to grab a smoothie for a hot afternoon pick-me-up. There was only one table in the store, which an employee and her friend were seated at (as we customers just stood around and waited). My $2 off coupon was apparently not going through and their manager came and let me spend just $2 for the acai bowl (as opposed to the original $7). Talk about good customer service and putting your customers first! No complaints. Jamba always has some better options for your diet--as long as you watch overdoing the sugar from all those fruits! But I love the health-power kick Jamba gives. And I had a decent visit here! P.S. The Apples & Greens smoothie and Tropical Greens fresh-pressed juice are my jam. read more

Jamba - Orange dream Machine with love! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Concord, California

First time going to Jamba Juice in a very long time. Got a small of my all time favorite: pink starburst. The drink itself was great and tasted like it should. Only reason I didn't give it a 5 stars is for the price. My small pink starburst was almost $7! That's just ridiculous for any drink (especially one without alcohol lol). Will probably go back once in a while, but it's just too expensive for a normal drink place. I think I'll stick to my Starbucks and Milk Teas. read more

Never again. This place deserves negative stars. I placed an order for one smoothie via Jamba's app at 12:10, which was confirmed for pickup at 12:20. I arrived on time. The employees clearly over their heads, as most folks were complaining that their orders were delayed or just plain wrong. I waited for 25 MINUTES in the store, which is no easy feat, as I am disabled. During this time I tried to reach Jamba's corporate office, but the phone number is disabled. While there, a few folks walked in, placed their orders and received their orders ahead of me! I would have immediately inquired about my order status, but the employees were rushing around and ignoring many of us who were waiting and wanting to check on the delays. Finally, I stepped past the counter and loudly asked about my order. They miraculously managed to prepare this ONE smoothie. What a sh!tshow! There are plenty of places to get smoothies these days. I will NEVER NEVER NEVER go back to Jamba Juice! read more

Boy, the weather is sure starting to creep up as summer come closer. It was unusually hot on this Saturday afternoon; we decided to stop by Jamba Juice after having lunch at Off the Grid here in Concord. I have somewhat explored most of the offering at Jamba Juice, I have already settled with White Gummy Bear as my go to drink. So does my wife and my daughter. I have almost tried the "other" Gummy Bear drink but W.G.B. is just that good. Jamba Juice's White Gummy Bear, oh so refreshingly delicious! read more

[In the Tune of New Edition - Cool it Now] "Yelp it out! You got to Yelp it out Oh watch out..You're gonna loose control! Yelp it out! You got to slow it down Slow it down, You're gonna fall in love.." Warm days will do it to you sometimes, it would case you to not wanna eat nothing heavy so you don't feel "lethargic" on these hot summer days. So sometimes, a cool substitute is in order. Ice Cream isn't a meal, although some will contest this. A cold meal, yea one packed with nutrients and vitamins and can cool you down all at once. Thank goodness for "Jumba Juice" the prefect solution for these..."Sunny Days that's sweeping the Clouds away" (Sesame Street) there are many, but I will tell you about this one, and how to get there.. Monday July 3, 2017 Location: Jumba Juice Concord, Ca People: 1 Adult Story: Walking around doing "Security" patrols in 90+ degree weather gets to you eventually. Wearing a hot uniform, heavy duty belt, and hat. It sometimes feels like the odds are stacked up against you. Lucky for me "Jumba Juice" is in the shopping center where I work (The Willows) also, lucky me I have a fundraiser card that got me "2-4-1" yea, imagine my delightment. So I had to do it, Jumba Juice hit the right spot..(Heads out the gutter Yelpdom) Service/Hospitality: The service is is pretty good, at least when I've visited. The employees usually are pretty attentive and have a smile on their faces. They aren't lacking in good customer service at this establishment at all. "Bravo" I made sure to mention it on the survey I took for them and made it of course a noteworthy mention here for you all here on "Yelp!" Food/Cleanliness: I will base what I got based on what I usually order a small "Amazing Greens" $5.99 at this location, of course with the fundraiser card you get 2-4-1 so for 3 more times I have this option....great deal! Here I haven't had an issue with the quality of their smoothies. I like that you can substitute ingredients and such to meet your taste and health needs. I also like the "Acai Super Antioxidant" on their "Speciality Smoothie List". They seem to always have the smoothies on point, the perfect thickness and very flavorful. They keep the inside and outside area pretty clean, from my inspections (plus its my job to make sure they do) great all around. Overall: "Jumba Juice" is all around good. Not just for Warm days, but even days where it's pretty cool outside. The perfect meal replacement option, and with all the boosts and additives, you're sure to get exactly what you need from them. Just and all around good idea in my opinion. So on that note I end this review off by bidding you......"Good Eats" read more

i went yesterday for my everyday drink and i love how fast jovi was. He was very kind to me and my son and we just loved our smoothie

Visit on 6/16/17: I had been craving an acai bowl and stopped here to pick one up. You won't get as many options or as high quality as at Vitality Bowls, but it's a solid good acai berry bowl and more nutritious ounce-for-ounce than their smoothies. It wasn't crowded when I stopped in near closing so they whipped it up pretty quickly. I should visit again on a Wednesday when they have specials on their acai bowls. read more

My husband stopped by to pick up smoothies for us, which he ordered through the app. Not sure what went wrong but the smoothies were the most disgusting thing I have ever tasted. They tasted like someone either poured a massive quantity of salt or soap into the mix. Honestly, the taste is hard to describe and I couldn't go in for a second sip in order to figure out the exact taste because it was that bad. I'm generally not one to complain, but this is obviously the type of thing that should be brought to a manager's attention. read more

I give them 2 stars because the cashier and employees were great, but the cold brew coffee was awful! It's my fault for even ordering this at a smoothie/juice place but I thought Jamba Juice will atleast make a decent coffee. It was so bitter, it tasted like it was from low quality coffee beans. Save your money, go to Starbucks, Peetes, Dunkin. Heck, go to a boba tea place or a mom and pop donut shop and get coffee there, they'll serve you cheaper better brewed coffee. It was a waste of $6+. Jamba Juice, stick to smoothies and juices, do not, I repeat, do not serve coffee again! read more

These girls working here were so, so sweet! Not only were my drinks awesome, but when I left my bank card at their location, they took the time to call me (at the number I called from to place my order)! I just thought it was super nice of them- they even put my card in a little gift card holder and wrote my name on it! I don't know, I just thought they were super sweet and I will definitely start coming here more often! I wish I knew the girl's name! Anyway, the girl who called me was working at 8am today, if that helps corporate give her some recognition for being an awesome employee and person! Thanks again! Edit- Okay, their names were Brit and Isabelle! I went back today and found out :) Give those two a raise!!! read more

My office is smack dab in between this Jamba Juice and the one on Crescent Drive. I always choose this one. Reason 1: I am always able to find parking here. Reason 2: The staff are super nice. I went by today for the first time in a very long time. (it has been way too cold the past couple months for me to enjoy a smoothie.) The woman working there remembered my name. It's nice when people remember you. I can never remember any of their names and they even wear name tags. She also noticed that I dyed my hair. Nice. I decided to try one of their smoothies with granola. For under $4 you get a small smoothie topped with granola. I went with the mango-peach and it was delicious. I also enjoy their new(er) all fruit smoothies. I love that all locations have a binder available with all the nutritional information. read more
