Came here right when it opened on a Sunday after a workout. There were a lot of options and the smoothies were good. However the staff were a little anti social for me. It was my first time here and I had questions about which smoothies were their favorites as well as which enhancements to include and they seemed bothered by my questions. They only pointed to the menu and pointed to a list of enhancements so I could read it. I had already read it but was hoping for some insight from them so this was a bit disappointing. Overall I would return for the smoothie but maybe order ahead read more

Pulp Juice And Smoothie Bar - Pick up counter - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Hilliard, Ohio

This was one of the first businesses I frequented when I got to Columbus in 2019. I am happy that they survived pandemic times and seem to be thriving. They were as busy as ever on a recent visit. All the blenders were firing away making smoothies. My favorite is the Protein Packer smoothie and it is just as delicious as when I first tried it. They also have acai bowls, wrap sandwiches and fresh juices. I have never tried any of those because I get the same thing every time :) read more

Pulp Juice And Smoothie Bar - a cup of juice and smoothie bar - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Hilliard, Ohio

It pains me to give this rating as I'm usually a big Pulp fan. However, based on this trip alone, I would have given them a one star, but based on history, I bumped it up to two. When I first came in, they immediately asked "what do you want" and walked away as soon as I finished talking. I didn't get an option for a receipt or anything. They were very snippy, but I was willing to excuse it because maybe they were busy with mobile orders or something. I used to work in food service so I understand! Then our drinks came out, and one was the incorrect size. I brushed this off until I got home, and we realized it was the wrong drink. The only reason I took it is because the employee handed it directly to me as she said the correct name of the drink. It also tasted very watered down, and the other smoothie we got tasted similar. We got two wraps: the turkey avocado wrap and the chicken caesar. Both were massively overloaded with their respective sauces (mayo and caesar dressing) and weren't too enjoyable. Hopefully will be better next time, if we are brave enough to return. read more

My husband and I are so glad to have stumbled upon this place. For years, I received mailed coupons but never checked it out. The menu is long and amazing! Something for everyone. I ordered a kale smoothie and my husband, a chocolate peanut butter smoothie with extra protein. You can barely tell that they are healthy! Just want to gulp them down. My smoothie was quite sweet and if they didn't add sugar, it must be the fresh fruit. We ordered kid sizes and it was more than enough. We also ordered wraps - buffalo, honey mustard chicken and an asian sesame. The first two were GREAT. Fresh, made quickly, great ingredients. The asian one lacked any real "goodness". It was just - eh. It was mostly lettuce and carrots. Overall, we plan to go often. Good prices too. read more

Staff was AMAZING!! Since I've never been here. They were very accommodating and explained the menu to me. I highly recommend the ginger turmeric shot. I got the strawberry banana smoothie, but subbed the banana for blueberries and it was absolutely delicious. I will definitely be back. read more

I absolutely love Pulp. It's summer and smoothies are one of the most refreshing things for me! Their location on Bethel just recently opened up, and everyone working there is friendly and attentive. I've tried a lot of their flavors already, and I've honestly enjoyed every single one. The prices are extremely reasonable given the sizing options and there's truly a flavor for everyone. Their online ordering is super user friendly as well, and it's easy to look at all of their add-ins. I find myself craving my next smoothie almost daily! read more

It's a perfectly good place to buy a smoothie and a quick lunch? There was nothing wrong with anything I got, but it all tasted a little like it just came from the grocery store. The vegetables in the Asian chicken wrap were very fresh and crispy, but the chicken looked and tasted more like chicken nuggets than actual grilled chicken, and the dressing seemed to just be some kind of salad dressing. The Peach Beach smoothie was good, but heavy on the orange sherbet and therefore rather sweet. It's a perfectly good food option, but not one I would actively seek out again. read more

5 stars for the buffalo chicken wrap alone. I always order it with the dressing on the side...I think it's so much better that way. I don't know how they make something so simple taste so much better than I would at home. read more

Pulp Juice And Smoothie Bar - Buffalo Chicken Wrap - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Hilliard, Ohio

We were in the area when we passed by Pulp and thought that a smoothie sounded good. We opted for the three berry smoothie (strawberry, blueberry, raspberry). Even the kids size is a generous portion - it's helpful that they have the three different sized cups lined up in front of the register to check out when ordering. The staff was efficient - they were already making our smoothies before the receipt was even done printing. They offer quite the variety of smoothies, as well as bowls and wraps that sound good that we'd be interested in trying in the future. A few tables are available inside of the shop, and there is a window to the gym next door. There is plentiful parking available in the shopping center lot. read more

Loved this place! The food was delish, and the three employees working there made everything very quickly. We had: - PB&G bowl (great) - avocado turkey wrap (good) - guava burner smoothie (great) read more

Wow! I am so happy to have found this place during my stay in Columbus. I ordered a berry smoothie and a veggie wrap. Both was super delish. The staff was extremely nice and accommodating. This is definitely a little gem in Hilliard. read more

I've been an avid Pulp lover since I've lived in Cleveland and was so pumped to see a Pulp in a surrounding Columbus city. Their initial greeting was no problem but they seemed stressed. It was apparent that at least one of them was still going through training during a shift time that I would consider a rush. So we get to ordering a few things that totaled a little over 50 bucks (not including tip), and the kid at the register up and crumpled our receipt without even asking if we wanted it which was the first red flag. I wanted to try their new Pink Dragon smoothie which I was hyped for since it's made with dragonfruit, strawberry juice, mangos, yogurt, pineapple sorbet, lemon squeeze, and chia seeds. I kinda watched while they were making our drinks and saw she had put a banana in my blender with the dragonfruit, and the The Pink Dragon I received tasted entirely like a banana. Every smoothie we got was extremely watery and just honestly not good. I didn't want to ask for our drinks to be remade or for a refund, I figured I would just take the L but those were the worst smoothies I have ever gotten from a Pulp. Also the lack of any type of window directly next to the connected gym is surely a great idea for those finishing their workouts and getting a treat to go home, but the smell that ruminates from the gym and into the Pulp store is honestly foul to the point I had lost my appetite. I'd be surprised if this wasn't a health code violation of some sort. The kids who work in the mornings to around noon are truly great, no complaints, we had come in around 5-6pm when this experienced occurred. I do wish some good training would be put in place and hopefully they will not substitute a sorbet/ice or other thickening factors with a banana in the future. read more

Great smoothie spot! Smoothie tasted great! The young lady seemed busy behind the counter and it seemed a little inconvenient for her to take my order but the service was quick and I enjoyed the smoothie. So I'd probably just order online and pick up instead in the future but I like their smoothies. read more

I am constantly surprised by this place time & time again when I visit! We keep saying we need to come more often. You normally don't have high hopes for a small smoothie joint with a limited amount of sandwiches, ect but everything we've gotten has been great every single time. The tuna wrap shocked us. Tasted really fresh and all the vegetables were crisp. We didn't think we needed the Asian dressing it came with on the side because the wrap was so good on its own...until we tasted it. At that point, we were drizzling it on every bite. Delicious!! Can't wait to go back & try a few other ones! All the smoothies we've had have been great too. PROS: *the food tastes fresh, flavor combinations are great, & the prize is just right!! (Most wraps are $6, salads $4 or $6 if you add protein) *nice little area in the back with good lighting, comfy leather couches & few tables. CONS: *none really!! Service could be improved for sure but what do you expect from a bunch of high schoolers who probably get paid minimum wage. If service were to improve, I'd probably give this place 5 Stars which I never do read more

Love the food and smoothies but damn people need to learn how to make a wrap. Twice I've gotten one that had to turn into a salad.

We did go in about 20 minutes til close, we asked if they were okay taking us which is no problem. It is pretty close to close. The issue here is that when asked there was a 16 year old kid that rudely laughed and said no. Should probably train your staff to let customers down better. It truly was no problem, we went in with the expectation of them saying no. It's just how the kid said no. Didn't get his name because he has his shirt off, leaning on the counter not doing anything. Shaggy brown hair. You know the one. Customer service is everything. Smoothie King we go :) read more

We just had Pulp for the first time on Saturday. I highly recommend. This location is connected to a gym on one side and has an open window type concept so you can get your smoothie while you sweat it out on the treadmill! I did not see an available public restroom-- just in case you are planning on hanging out for hours on end! I got the Samma Jamma and loved it. My husband got the Island Cruiser and he felt like I ordered the best! read more

I thought Pulp was the best smoothie place around. It was so much better than others and it was a lot cheaper. This is a pretty good smoothie and juice bar. It is located next to a gym, and there is a window so you can order while in there. Would be going there more often if they would not close early. I had the blueberry smoothie. It's about $5 which is much better than others. The consistency was nice and it was cool and refreshing. It has many others to choose from. They include a free enhancer with each smoothie. It makes it even more of a value. This is a better value than something like Smoothie King. It also has some pretty good wraps. The vegetable wrap is a good price at about $6. It is conveniently located next to a gym so it's a nice way to load up. They even have a window so you won't have to leave to get something there when you are working out. I like smoothies and Pulp is good and more affordable than other smoothie places. It has sandwiches and wraps which are a nice compliment. Would come back here to try another smoothie. read more

Pulp Juice And Smoothie Bar - Vegetable Wrap - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Hilliard, Ohio

we bought smoothies for a sports team and this store delivered with great customer service, a good price and the best tasting smoothies in columbus. We will be back read more

The smoothies are good but inconsistent. I ordered the protein packer one day and it was great, so I got it again the next day and it was not very good. Kind of slimy. read more

I'm sort of a regular at this Pulp. Only about every other week, sometimes more. Most all the time the smoothies are great. However the service is hit or miss. A few weeks ago I had ordered online: I arrived to pick up my smoothie and there were four other people standing and waiting. No one was ordering at the counter. We were all waiting and the staff were bustling putting together orders. I was not acknowledged to be there until I had stood there a good five minutes. At which time the young man asked my name and gee there was my smoothie that had been sitting on the counter the entire time. It would be nice for the employees to acknowledge each customer's presence. The next time I went the service was the normal decent. Today though. There was only myself at the counter to order. There were two employees putting orders together and an employee doing dishes. I was glanced at and ignored. The lady doing dishes spoke something to the young man....he looked at me and said "oh!" Then the girl meandered to the register to take my order. This was at 1:30 on November 10 and I think I'll check out Hilliard Nutrition on Cemetery Rd and see how they are. I've really loved Pulp but the service can be frustrating. read more

Our smoothies tasted like watered down fruit. The service was just ok as well. Probably won't be going back there for a bit. it's too expensive to be hit or miss with these smoothies. read more

Just like everything else now, they started charging more and giving way smaller portions. I used to be able to get 2 meals from their chicken wraps it's kind of funny how much smaller they are now. Pay more than before but get less food. You can literally make the smoothies yourself for a few bucks instead of spending $10 on one. Also I feel they break up their smoothies I to categories just so they can charge more by calling it a 'premium blend' just because they threw in some chia seeds. This used to be my favorite place. read more

Stopped in for the first time the other day and will definitely go back. The service was really good and everyone was friendly. They seem to be pretty organized and we didn't have to wait too long for our food. The food actually came out before our smoothies. Smoothies - I liked the options and fresh ingredients. I didn't try the strawberry banana because it had pineapple juice in it which was weird to me. The Elite Eight was surprisingly good the Cranberry Fix was not too tart. I think I will try one of the juices next time! The food - We tried three different wraps. Nothing to brag about, good for a small lunch. We got four wraps and three smoothies for just over $40. A couple of the tortillas seemed a little dry, but the food was still pretty good. The spicy turkey had a kick to it which is good because I don't like when menu items say spicy and have no heat at all. The club was pretty much what you would expect. The PB&G was a hit with the kids. A little messy, but good flavor combo and the granola gives it a little crunch. I don't like cinnamon and it tasted like there was some in it, possibly in the granola?? Everyone else loved it. My five year old ate a whole wrap and I was still a little hungry after finishing mine. So I would say it's a place for a light meal or quick stop on the go, just done expect to sit down and be stuffed when you leave unless you have a small appetite. Which brings me to my next point. There isn't a lot of seating. We had two adults and three kids. They had a bar height table with three seats that isn't good for little kids and they had two small tables with two seats each. There is an extra chair that you can pull up so we had just enough seating. There is a sofa and chair in the corner as well. Like I said, this isn't somewhere you'd bring your family for a sit down meal so the seating is on line with this type of place. I didn't notice if there was a drive thru. Overall...great people, a little high on price for me based on the amount of food you get, pretty quick service, very clean and bright inside, good smoothies, and a decent amount of menu options. read more

The door clearly says opens at 7:00am. I have waited for a half hour and then I call and the VM says they open at 9:00am. No excuse.

Large menu and nice variety of health options. They have wraps, salads and smoothies. I've been here twice and have gotten the chocolate peanut butter protein shake. It has 40 Graham's of protein. It's really tasty, gives me energy and lasts a while! There are no restrooms. read more

I really like Pulp. I've had a few isolated occasions where the service or the food purchased wasn't the best. But it's only been 1-2 times out of several that I've been here. Are the employees overly chipper? No. Is there someone new there almost every time? Yes. But 98% of the time, they deliver exactly what you order and it's delicious. I vary with what I get. Sometimes I'll just get a smoothie (Peach Beach is my favorite) or I'll get the pb&g wrap/bowl. They have lots of smoothies to pick from, along with extra adds like energy or hangover relief (lol). Salads, wraps and bowls as well. I find coupons in the mail a lot for them which helps. I do wish they had a loyalty program for customers! I would have at least 2 freebies already! read more

Pulp Juice And Smoothie Bar - My frozen "acai" bowl. So disappointing. Paid .50 for freezer burnt blueberries too. If you want an acai bowl, go elsewhere. - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Hilliard, Ohio

I love all of the new smoothie/bowl places popping up around C-Bus! I heard good things about Pulp so decided to stop in and try it out. I used to take classes at the gym next door and noticed they have a window that allows gym goers to order from inside the gym; what a great idea! Let me just say that I need to visit again to try something else, maybe I just picked wrong on the menu. I got a bowl that had yogurt, banana and peanut butter. I usually love this combo and was so excited to try it, but there was so much peanut butter it made me feel sick. I am a peanut butter lover but it was just too much smeared on top of the other stuff in the bowl. Prices here are better than some of the other local smoothie bars but I don't think they use any organic ingredients either if that's a must for you! Next visit I'll try a wrap or smoothie and complete another review, but this location isn't close by for me, so for now I'll stick with Zest or Alchemy! read more

Pulp Juice And Smoothie Bar - PB&G Bowl - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Hilliard, Ohio

Best place for smoothies around Columbus! My go to it the Mango Bomb I may have a small obsession.

I love Pulp and am there a few times every month. Usually service is great and I get what I order no problem. Lately though there have been small errors and service is slow. For example I always get a $10 juice and it fills the large 32 ounce cup ~ today it was missing kale and when the young lady poured the juice into the 32 ounce cup she put ice in first, so there was a TON of perfectly good juice wasted that I paid for. Also, marking the drinks helps when you purchase more than one to identify whose is whose when you get home or to work. I prefer to go when there are adults working along with the high school/college students - things move smoother read more

Pulp Juice And Smoothie Bar - Ice in fresh juice is a waste - lose out on lots of juice. - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Hilliard, Ohio

I really wanted to like this place. It's a smoothie bar/lunch spot connected to a gym, so I was hoping for light but filling and flavorful fare, made with fresh, healthy ingredients. We ordered the dragonfruit blended bowl, the peanut butter granola bowl, the açaí blended bowl, a smoothie and two design-your-own juices. The blended bowls were giant, but not flavorful at all. Just underwhelming and bland. I make these at home and the flavor is always intense. The peanut butter granola bowl was a hot mess. It was a pile of big chunks of granola, with a giant scoop of peanut butter on top. Like at least a half-cup, probably more. We ended up taking it to go, and it was so clumpy that it was hard to remove it from the container. The smoothie was met with mixed reviews, and one juice (kale, apple, cucumber) was really tasty. Unfortunately, juice No. 2 was not to be. The carrot-beet-ginger combo (my go-to at another local juice shop) broke the smoothie machine. The staff were super nice and apologetic, but it clearly wasn't the highlight of the visit. I would have been fine if that's all we encountered, but the whole visit was tainted by a peek on the counter. Skippy peanut butter (not even the "natural" kind). Dannon yogurt. A big tub of sherbet, which went into the smoothies. Everything felt decidedly less healthy, to the point where I was wondering if there was HFCS in my dragonfruit bowl. The prices originally seemed pretty reasonable: $6-10 for a fresh juice is on-par with other shops around here. But after seeing the ingredients, $8 for grocery store peanut butter mixed with a few boulders of granola felt a little too pricey. Pulp also serves lunch, and the menu looked promising for a quick to-go wrap, but after the lackluster experience, I'm hesitant to go back. read more

These ladies working today were soooo nice! I order a regular size protein packer smoothie and they accidentally made extra and gave me the large. I'm so happy they did not just waste the smoothie. These employees deserve a raise for their amazing customer service!! read more

I used to go everyday after my workout at crunch and for some reason EVERY time I go, I get ignored by every single teenage girl who works there, they skip over me and take everyone else's orders and then they "forget" about my order or just take 15-20 minutes making it. They sit in the back on their phones and act like they don't see me it's ridiculous. And I ALWAYS tipped before they made it too but they don't deserve my tip or my money. Not sure why they treat me that way especially with how often I go in there but I'll just go to smoothie king from now on. Extremely unprofessional. read more

Smoothies are one of my favorite foods. A lot of smoothie places don't have a lot of variety or tropical flavors, but this place has a whole section of the menu dedicated to tropical blends. My favorites are the Elite Eight and Pulp Passion. Service is friendly and I like that I don't have to request to omit a bunch of chalky powders. read more

I can't say enough great things about this place. Usually we just grab a smoothie and run. However, yesterday we had lunch. I had the PB&G wrap and my wife had the Tuna wrap. They were both amazing. At $6 each, Pulp has the best lunch deal around. 100% We will be back! read more

I remember having my first smoothie from a lovely, kind girl who was very nice and allowed me to take an additional 3 minutes to decide what I wanted to order. And 3 minutes is a life time to someone who works in the food industry. Are smoothies food? I know it doesn't help you if your diabetic. FU diabetes! I'm having an island tropical smoothie. I'm only riding this ferries wheel once. Sorry. If you find yourself near mill run. For Christ sakes! STOP and get yourself a smoothie at Pulp! You won't regret it. Don't be a Sean Cashwell! Treat yourself to a smoothie! read more

If they brought out more vegetable inclusive smoothies, I'd be stokedddd. Regardless I love this place. I lived on smoothies from here for a while. So worth it especially if you get BOGO coupons in the mail read more
