Juice crafters is a laidback smoothie place in Santa Monica that I've always wanted to try. I stopped by on a Sunday afternoon and there was virtually no wait. There's some chairs out front and the vibe is very calm and nice. I ordered from the juice bar instead of the kiosk since it was in use and I didn't want to wait. The barista took my order: Green Soul smoothie. It was delicious. A bit pricey, but the taste and quality of what you pay for speaks for itself. Street parking was surprisingly easy to find too. I'd come again. read more

I've been coming to Juice Crafters for years, and I absolutely love their smoothies! Their juices and smoothies are consistently delicious, and I appreciate that everything is 100% vegan. While they are on the pricier side, I allow myself the indulgence because, hey, I'm grown and deserve it! My favorite ones are the "Muscle Builder," " Chunky Monkey". and the "Wake me up!". They have such a great variety that there's always something new to try. I love the cozy outdoor seating with the bright yellow chairs. Parking: Street parking by the meters. read more

The food was so delicious and the fruits used were so fresh. Service was quick and the employees were friendly. The vibes were bright and tropical. Overall an amazing experience! read more

Juice Crafters - Acai - Classic Bowl - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Went in this morning for a healthy breakfast, ended up getting a Dragon Fruit bowl, which in my opinion was not tasty at all. It looked great but the base (dragon fruit) ruined it. It taste like plain dragon fruit, which is ALMOST tasteless with some kind of sweetener, so virtually sweet water. Not what I really wanted for breakfast. The service was nice and quick but based on food I would not recommend, maybe their juices are better? read more

Juice Crafters - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Santa Monica, California

I'm usually really picky with my acai bowls, especially if it's not a build your bowl place, but I love Juice Crafters! It's really convenient since I work nearby so if I need a protein smoothie/bowl before I head into work, I usually stop by. The staff there are all super nice and they're quick with the orders! Parking can get a little busy as it's street parking only, but that's expected of Santa Monica/LA! read more

Excellent customer service. I received a hand written note from their staff when a product I ordered was unavailable at time of delivery. Bowls are hefty and delicious. read more

Good smoothie place. Nothing special, but not bad at all. Fruit tastes fresh and drink was prepared quickly. I tried the dragonfruit reboot and it was good. Metered parking right in front and tables to sit outside. read more

Juice Crafters - Menu (April 2024) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Came with a group and we ordered 4 varieties of açaí bowls. Nice, simple ambiance inside. I loved the huge amethyst crystals on display on the counter and display table. We sat outside and waited for our orders at the picnic tables. For the price of $13-$15/bowl, I'd expected larger bowls, then realized everything is higher nowadays. I had the one with kale and expected to see a hint of green, but there was none. Figured it was pureed into the acai. Nothing to write home about, but still refreshing on a sunny day. Street parking. read more

I ordered the large size of the Fountain of Youth smoothie, which the sign said included blueberries and strawberries and a bunch of other fruits. About $13. Imagine my surprise when I took a sip and it tasted like chocolate! Turns out that I missed the fact that they add cocoa to it as well. I was really disappointed because I wanted a fruity smoothie, but I tried to drink it anyways. However, it turned out to be way too sweet and the chocolate overpowered all the fruit. What's the point of fruit if it's just going to be chocolate flavored? I miiiight come back again, but I would NEVER order that smoothie ever again, yuck! However the staff was pleasant and I appreciated that. Ambiance? It's a casual smoothie place, a little run down but clean. read more

Juice Crafters - Too sweet chocolate "Fountain of Youth" smoothie. Ick. - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Kind of a pain to find metered street parking. Counter area inside available to sit and sip or a couple of tables available right outside. The staff is very cool and helpful. Takes a while to get your order though, in case you're in a rush. Their smoothies are very tasty and I find myself going through phases where I have to get my fix continuously. Not cheap though. You're looking at about $12+ per drink. Bought myself a Vitamix after spending soo much money at juice crafters, but somehow, it's just not the same. read more

Honestly, I liked this spot! I got the açaí bowl and my friend got the dragonfruit bowl. I liked both a lot. It's perfect cus we went right after going to the gym and had this to fill our stomachs after. There's metered parking right outside and there's a few table seating outside the establishment. read more

Came here after yoga in the park (so Santa Monica LOL) with my daughter. I got a smoothie & she got an açaí bowl. Both were yummy. The bowl was HUGE & tons of fresh toppings. Friendly service, wait time was not too bad at Friday 1pm. A few tables outside to wait &/or enjoy your order. Great place on a warm day if you are at at Clover Park. read more

I love this place especially the one in Santa Monica staff is so friendly and kind the bowls are so good and it's so fresh. The place is clean and welcoming plus they offer great snacks and juices. Highly recommend read more

The Santa Monica location on Ocean park is so bad, the employees put no effort into our $17.00 açaí bowls. Do not recommend and will not go back. Also annoying they ask for a tip before they even make it. So not worth the money. read more

I am happy that I stumbled upon this place. I've seen people with Juice Crafters smoothies walking around town for a while and have been wanting to see what they're all about. When I walked into Juice Crafters late yesterday afternoon, I had every intention of getting an açaí bowl and am glad that I did. Their açaí bowls have a unique and fresh taste. I love the almond granola that they add on top! Overall, it was extremely flavorful and fresh. It gave me the fuel I needed before my cycling class. The service was great. I didn't wait too long for my bowl and was happily greeted upon walking in. I give this place two thumbs up and five stars! I'll be returning soon to try some yummy smoothies or juices. read more

i went in person to order Saturday and still received a premade frozen bowl.... i'm shocked they didn't make it fresh. i used to love this place but how lazy. i walked out with a frozen solid bowl i had to hack into with a plastic spoon. really disappointing for $15 i ordered and paid for protein style and it was a classic bowl read more

My favorite spot to get wellness shots & protein shakes! The staff is always helpful when I want to try something new. they recently renovated their space, it's very modern & clean! read more

I have tried time and time again to like this location since it is close to my house, but I simply cannot take this anymore. The employees at this location consistently mess up my online orders, including wrong or missing items. Today is the last day I go to this location. I ordered a bowl and to my surprise they messed up my order, again. I tried calling this location and the young man working there kept hanging up immediately. I am sick and tired of these lazy employees and for 45 dollars for three items, this is completely inexcusable. I highly consider training your employees since most Juice Crafters I go to run very poorly. Sun Life would never!!! Goodbye forever Juice Crafters. read more

This place is definitely where you go to change your eating habits for the better. They make it easy to eat healthy, the staff is usually kind and helpful. They have a wide variety of smoothies,juices,and bowls. Definitely check this place out if you're looking for something both healthy and tasty. read more

Love this place but the new Talk of the Town recipe is terrible. So sweet. Wish they would change it back - not sure why they changed in the first place! read more

Juice Crafters is on a section of Ocean Park that has some interesting restaurants and art gallery. The interior is stocked with various healthy goodies to choose from as well as a good selection of juices. I was intending to wander the boulevard so I ordered a blend of juices and some peanut butter bites to go. The bites were dense and very peanutty and the juice fit the bill. read more

Got a classic acai bowl and it was okay. The bowl is a wide fit, presumably to put all the toppings, but it kind of makes it look like they skimped out on the acai. It's a shame because I'm here for the acai - not the toppings. Unfortunately, the acai here isn't anything special, which sucks because I paid $10 for it. Overall, it's fine. Service was fine too; I came during a moment of no customers yet, so my order was made very quickly (thankfully! As soon as I walked out there were 3 customers walking in and there was only 1 guy out front making everything). Glad I tried it and got the experience though. read more

So rude! I come here all the time. He was on the phone with a friend, not a customer and said I could order on the kiosk if I didn't want to wait. I had a few questions about açaí bowl so I said I'd wait. He then continued to talk for like 4 minutes on the phone, no big deal. He got off the phone and started taking the garbage out in what seemed in spite for me waiting , because I had questions . Wtf. I just left. Never coming back to this shop read more

Drove 15 minutes to get here 10 minutes before they close and they turned me away because they felt like closing early

Got the açaí classic bowl for breakfast this morning after my workout and it was the perfect healthy yet filling and satisfying treat. Will definitely be back, love this place! read more

Smoothies are good, not the most flavorful for the price but healthy. Parking is definitely tough depending on the time. I tried calling into order but no one answered, maybe because of the loud music playing inside. Only other concern is I ordered one of the smoothies with cacao nibs and there were several very hard (inedible) chunks in my smoothie. I tried cutting one piece with a knife to see if it was soft enough to chew but couldn't cut all the way through, not even sure if it was cacao. read more

Amazing service my favorite drink is the muscle builder Allen was so helpful and awesome !!

I've always enjoyed the smoothies and I recently tried an acai bowl and I think it's much better here than others in the area. I will always choose this place over the others on San Vicente! read more

Love this place get their muscle builder with spinach all the time it's my favorite. I also love their açaí bowls and ordering online picking up curbside couldn't be easier read more

Definitely the best I have had in LA! The order is consistent time after time unlike some places where it's not quiet the same as the last time you were there. I always splurge on the protein bowl bc it's delicious and it could be 2 servings (I usually inhale the whole thing) and it really keeps you full! The staff was friendly and the place was clean. read more

Order a Malibu dream and it was over blended I asked if was possible ti make it thicker ..... I don't know what they did to it when it was given back to me it was the same thing so liquidy with no taste you can hardly taste anything never coming back here to pay $11 and some cents for a smoothie tasting like shit. Maybe I just buy a bottle of water if I want same consistency. read more

There's always nice people working there. They also work pretty fast. However, i have never put in an order of 3 acai bowls without them getting something wrong in one of the bowls. Always. They need to improve their system. Like so close but in a bowl they forgot the coconut flakes or two similar bowls but one didn't want cacao nibs yet they added them. My suggestion is to take everything out of your order and check while there. Annoying but consistent problem, read more

Placed an order on Doordash but the app didn't allow me to make all the adjustments I needed. I called the store immediately, and spoke to a young woman. Explained to her I just placed doordash order and didn't give me option to remove granola which I can't have due to current health issues. Asked to ensure that there would be no granola and replace with blueberries. She assured me that this would be no problem and she'd make sure those changes were followed Sure enough, she did not make sure this happened. Very disappointed. read more

The food is great. The 3 star review is for the crappy plastic packaging. It drives be buts to dine in and be served in a plastic container, with a lid. I less. Yeah, they look great but shouldn't we aim to evolve away from single use plastic to something more eco-friendly? And the biggest joke is the wooden spoon that gets served with the order. Do better guys... read more

Juice Crafters is my favorite juice spot! It is a cute little shop front on Ocean Park. They always have samples of different smoothies out for you to try. I come here a lot and love everything I've gotten here. I usually get one of their superfood smoothies(which you can get one of two sizes), the pressed green juice, or their ginger shots. They are served so cute in a shot glass with a strawberry and little umbrella! I also get their acai bowl from time to time. It is kind of pricey but it is the biggest açai bowl I've ever seen! Juice Crafters is my favorite juice spot ever! Mostly because of the smoothies. They are SO good and taste super healthy. They also have brochures with lists of a bunch of super foods they use and the benefits of each ingredient! Great idea. Great customer service, everyone is so friendly there and they have punchcards! read more

Love Love Love! Yes, it is pricey. Yes, it makes you feel flippin' fantastic! Yes, you will be hooked to cold pressed juice. There is NOTHING like it. If I could afford my own incredible cold press, I'd buy one....this place changed cold pressed drinks for me. I never walk out w/out spending $20. Ha! I always start with a lemon ginger cayenne shot. If you need to feel electrified, need a dose of energy, need to fight off a sickness, or, if you want to just feel good, do a ginger shot. The apple ginger shot is delish too but, the lemon shot, just hits ya. I can actually feel my capillaries open in my skin when I shoot the LGC. LOVE! LOVE! Many times, when you walk in, there are samples of some of the smoothies on the counter. It's my fave way to try the menu w/out paying for it. Honestly, I've tried almost all the smoothies, so it really depends what you are in the mood for, or what your needs are. I usually go in around breakfast time, so order the Pacific Love to supplement as my meal most often, that's my fave. I also am a huge fan of the Chunky Monkey. Yummmmm!! Late afternoon, I'll stick to lighter drinks that are not meal replacement, like the - Charcoal Lemonade *YUMMMMM*, fresh watermelon mint, ooh, the Venice Cove is delightful, U like Em was the 1st smoothie I ever had at Juice Crafters. Depending on who you get, staff isn't overtly friendly, but can warm up. I've had some really helpful, friendly, & accommodating employees; I've also had staff that have grunted. Literally. Their takeout fridge is great too. I've had some of the most delicious raw food from that counter. The raw cinnamon roll....holy hana that is devine. Thanks for providing incredible products! Keep up the tastiness. read more
