    Kcal Special Smoothie
    Bori A.

    It is so hard to find a place where you can get healthy but tasty food, so a new addition to the list is always nice. The staff is amazingly friendly and kind, I must say. Every time I was here, I really felt that my opinion matters, one of these times I even got a small questionnaire so I can share my thoughts with them. The menu is really well curated and diverse, so I tried several things already. Their breakfast toasts are amazing, the salads are fresh and rich in ingredients, the smoothies and shakes are really tasty. My absolute favourite is the Espressoats, which only lacks the 'Designed for Bori A' tag from it - I mean, it is healthy and delicious and it even has caffeine in it, what else could I hope for? I also love the idea that water is also flavoured with some berries or cucumber or such. I think it's a great addition, absolutely matching the image of the place. I need to admit I had less lucky choices as well, the Protein Macaroni Cheese did not become my favourite for instance, I just had the feeling poor mac was seasoned with protein powder directly. But that that was only one item on a pretty impressive list of different foods I tried, so I won't complain much about it. If anyone is seriously into monitoring their nutrition: in addition to mentioning main macro nutrients and the calorie intake on the menu, everything is available in MyFitnessPal as well, which may help for people interested in such things (at the moment I need to be, because the scale is accusing me of a horrible weight gain in the past year, so I need to be watching.) Not only have I been here three times already, I also know that I will return, and I promise that I will update this review sooner or later. My overall rating is neither a perfect five nor an absolute four - however I am tending towards the better score for now, and will decide in a few months whether I was right or wrong.

    These smoothie bars seem to be popping up everywhere these days…read more I came along today to try one out wasn't sure what one to try so just chose the first one on the list that was called energise and got another 50p you can double up the fruit content. First impressions Expensive for what you get fruit, topped of with apple juice and lots of ice served in a polystyrene take away cup that takes nearly a thousand years to break down. Menu You can choose pressed fruit that is served in shot glasses and various types of smoothies they where nice enough but nothing out of this world. Prices Quite expensive for what you get l would have thought that this company would have tried to source paper cups than polystyrene especially with the prices that they charge.

    I recently gave into my indulgent side and treated myself to a Fuel Smoothie. Located on the bottom…read morefloor of Buchanan Galleries, it's far too tempting not to stop for a little fruit juice related pit stop. They have a large selection of smoothies on offer, but if you don't fancy an of the items on the menu - you an mix and match and make us your own. You can also add a couple of boosting "shots", such as wheatgerm or fat booster. I'm sorry to say it, but I wasn't particularly enamored with the service. I asked if I could pay on a card (not an unreasonable request, you'd think) and was met with a firm no and a display of grumpiness. So I delved deep into my handbag and gathered enough pennies together to order a smoothie anyway. A little overpriced, perhaps, it cost me around £3 for a regular sized smoothie. (Which perhaps wouldn't have bothered me quite so much if they had been friendlier!) Another slight gripe that I had was that they put my expensive smoothie into a quite nasty cheap polystyrene cup. Call me particular - but I was expecting one of the clear plastic traditional smoothie cups with a dome on top. No such luck! The smoothie was really tasty though, and kept me very happy all the way home on the subway.

    South Side

    I know it's (very) early doors for this review (they opened today!) but when you have been waiting…read moreso so patiently as I have for this place to open then I just couldn't wait to spread the word! Situated on the left hand side of the ground floor atrium (past the escalators) of the spanking new South Glasgow University Hospital (still getting used to that new name!) Souped Up & Juiced is the latest cafe to open up here and I can almost hear the cries of 'YAS!' ring throughout the whole of the SGUH grounds by fellow lovers of coffee, sweet treats and sandwiches. With only the Aroma Cafe as competition (so far) SU&J really are MILES ahead of the game ~ you only have to look at the place to see how much better they are. Run by the same folk that gave us the Deco cafes, SU&J is their newest (and may I say, funkiest) venture. I loved Deco so it was really no surprise I was going to love this place too. These gals and guys know their shiz. I visited about 10:50am & there was a substantial queue already but unlike in Aroma where you seem to wait an age before you're even acknowledged here it was so quick yet with just the right amount of time to let you peruse the menus. I was impressed. All staff were friendly and helpful (not in a forced way either) and the queue moved very swiftly indeed. Great start, especially considering this was their 1st day of opening. What do they serve? Well, there's sandwiches/wraps/paninis, savoury snacks, bottled/canned drinks (San Pellegrino, yas!), delicious sounding soups (Chickpea & Spinach Dahl, NYC Chicken Noodle & Mexican Chilli Chicken to name a few), fresh pressed juices & smoothies (to which you can add 'Booster Shots' of wheatgrass & other such healthlicious goodies), Froyo, Breakfast pots (Porridge, Museli & Granola), coffees (hot & iced) and yummy yummy sweet delights such as their epic Empire Biscuits, pastries and muffins too. I think that's everything?! I had a soya (yes, they serve soya milk ~ bonus) flat white and Empire Biscuit and the coffee was REALLY good; very well made, nice & strong yet also nice creamy foamed soya milk. Service was impeccable and I really like their vast menu/choice and the look of the place. Only downside is they don't have their own seating but I'm guessing that's not their fault...however there are seats & tables not far away also on the ground floor of the atrium and also more upstairs too. Price wise Smoothis start from £3.15, fresh juices from £2.95 and their coffees average at about £1.90 for a medium size. Not bad. They also have plenty of Meal Deals & offers on which saves a bit of your hard earned dollah. Whether you're visiting, a patient or staff here this place is a wee haven offering up yummy eats & tasty drinks to heal you (maybe). Souped Up & Juiced ~ I shall visit you again, soon! You are just souper! *groan* (sorry!)

    There's not many things which sound more appealing than getting "souped up & juiced" when you're at…read moreSouthern General at 9am in the morning. So that's what I did (it was also bloody freezing!). I like the look of this cafe and that it's somewhere I hadn't heard of before I saw it appear in the hospital. It's in the main building, near the patient check-in machines and has an appealing frontage. At 9am it was pretty quiet and I went over to check out the soup options. I have to say from the outset the staff member working was not especially friendly, kind of gesturing towards the boards of soup at the back and looking a bit miffed that I asked about them at all. Maybe she's not a morning person but perhaps she could have been a smidgeon chirpier. They also have 8 different soups on the go which - for a new customer - is pretty surprising as most places will offer 2 maximum. Anyway. I asked for a medium pea and ham to which she told me it hadn't been warmed to the correct temperature yet (she was checking the vats with a thermometer) and that she would need to microwave it for me. Ok, sure. For a medium soup and some bread it came to £2.95 and was packaged in a takeaway cup. The soup was awesome - one of the best pea and ham soups I can remember ever having (except for my Mum's soup, of course). So that's why this review still hits the 3-star mark even though the customer service left much to be desired. Would I go back here? Probably yes, and hopefully I can give them an upgrade next time.
