Had lots of seating and a nice spot to chat with whoever you're with. Nice college town spot for sure, will go back! IG - baroqueplates

For the price, no wifi, no outlets, and the worst service you will find in Storrs you should go…read moreelsewhere. An older man in a puffer vest (no uniform of any kind, I thought he was a customer at first) took my plate without asking if he could, asked me if I was staying long then told me they would need the table soon for their lunch rush, and then walked away quickly before I could reply. Confrontational enough to suggest people leave but not brave enough to post seating limits is definitely a choice a business across the street from a college.

Seen the posts and videos on instagram and finally was in the area to check this place out. I chose…read moreto try for my first shake the "Cinnamon Toast Cheesecake" and I was quite pleased with how it tasted. I chuckled seeing a sprinkle of cinnamon toast crunch cereal bites on top. Certainly a place I will visit again and again when in town. Judging by the posts on instagram there are always monthly flavors to check out and try.

I have been wanting to try this place for 2 years. I don't typically come up to this area- but…read moreoccasionally work brings me this way. So for the past 2- I was always coming up on the ONE weekday they were closed. I finally saw that it was open today and went out of my way to try it! It was absolutely worth the wait. I got a strawberry watermelon smoothie and you could tell it was all fresh fruit used and it was so delicious! Definitely top 5 best smoothies I've ever had!!! This reminded me of a smoothie I got in the Dominican Republic- so FRESH & so delicious. The place is small- but ADORABLE! It was IMMACULATE in terms of cleanliness. I didn't see a speck of dust anywhere and the toppings for ice cream- appeared out of a magazine- it looked that picture perfect. They have a little swing against a wall- with a neon sign that says the name of the establishment. It appeared functional- but I didn't want to break it- if it wasn't so I didn't try it. Lol. Service was great! Friendly and personable staff and my smoothie came right out. It took under 4 minutes for me to get this delicious smoothie!! If you're in the area and you enjoy smoothies - I highly recommend trying this spot! My smoothie is amazing!

This place is absolutely amazing!! I've been here a few times now and I always get the delight…read morewhich is a Ferrero Rocher in a milk shake type thing, it's amazing!! They are very fast with the drink and it always is ready in no more than 10 minutes! The atmosphere is beautiful with really beautiful decorations!!

So the inevitable happened. I generally have a good experience with Emerald Smoothie. Their prices…read moreare a bit high but usually the smoothies end up tasting great. Few times have I found mysterious metal? bits in my smoothie. Unsure of what it is but it's hard so it's not fruit. They serve their smoothies in styrofoam cups and unfortunately my straw completely went through the entire cup before even one sip. The entire smoothie was now on my lap and in the brisk beginnings of spring time, I can say that I was cold. With the sheer embarrassment of pink goop on my lap, I wasn't gonna walk in for a replacement. Instead I drove home with frozen, sticky laps until I could shower and clean out my car. So--all in all, beware of the styrofoam.

I love it! There's a great variety and every smoothie I've had is delicious…read more The service is fast and they were accommodating of ingredient swaps. They also carry some protein powders, supplements, and protein bars.

A small cafe just off the UConn campus but it has a surprisingly large menu of Chinese-styled…read more dishes and flavored teas (including boba) - and both are prepared well, satisfying and tasty, and reasonably priced. You order at the counter and pick it up when ready in take-out containers. The cafe has a few tables for dining-in but no table service (and no tableware save for disposable chopsticks and utensils). While we were there, it was obvious that they do a brisk take-out biz. I had a scallion beef which was excellent; my daughter had one of their signature double-cooked pork dishes (which I must have next time), and my wife had a good garlic eggplant dish. My lychee tea was bang-on good, sweet and satisfying; my daughter's kumquat-lemon tea was crisp and refreshing. Service is quick and friendly. Definitely worth it!

I had the passion fruit juice (no milk, not even palming milk bc I have a nut allergy so I opted for juice)-- for me it was really really sweet. He had the one that has milk. He loves this stuff.

The Cinnamon Toast Crunch tasted like the cereal or some French toast. The chocolate dipped strawberry moon was like a chocolate covered strawberry.. more chocolate tasting than I anticipated, but still very good We plan to go back and try some other flavors!
