I was excited bc the barista actually made the matcha fresh vs a pre batched matcha concentrate which I do not like. They had some little snacks you could buy, some Kokomo merch, and other random little things. They had a good menu. The basics plus a little more which I appreciate bc when a coffee shop has too large of a menu, usually quality is compromised somewhere. My matcha was pretty good. I got a strawberry matcha latte with oat milk. They use strawberry syrup which wasn't bad at all. And the matcha wasn't bitter and grassy. My friend got the drip coffee and she really liked it. I believe it's Latina owned and lgbtq friendly which is always a plus for me. I'll definitely be back when I'm back in the area

This is one of my favorite chains now. First time visiting this location, but stopped in at a…read moreTropical Smoothie Cafe a couple of times. This East Main Street, Bexley location, is in the former Jeni's Ice cream spot and the cafe is a perfect fit for the space. Plenty of parking across the street and a traffic light with a pedestrian walk makes it so easy. There is also some street parking going west in front of the shop but the parking lot makes it so much easier. Inside is small with a few tables and seating areas, the register, menu, and a to-go order pick up station. You can order in or with the app and do a pick up. I had a coupon code so I ordered through the app. I decided on a Chia Banana Boost with Peanut Butter. It is an absolute repeat. I did have to wait a few minutes due to the lunch rush but when I walked in and provided my name for the pick up order, they pulled the order and started making it. I am really loving the Tropical Smoothies as a meal, or a treat.

Like the space always clean, good area to work, great sunlight and background music. Reviewing a recent visit. Egg sandwich- 3.5/5. It was interesting. The sauce was like a hot sauce (I liked the spice) but it oddly reminded me of a buffalo chicken egg sandwich because of it. All the elements were done well... great foccacia, juicy/fluffy egg. I just enjoy the flavor enough to order again. Chai tea wt honey- 4/5 solid tea. Only negative was the Temperature, it was warm vs hot, but the flavor was delicious. Not a huge fan of the smoothies, but the coffee and teas are typically good. It was my first time getting food. Local staple will defintely return.

Super cute, grass backdrop with yellow and white balloons. Staff was very nice and helpful. Long counter/bar space. I've been to quite a few of these Herbal Life chains, I was hoping this wasn't the same only because was wanted a local, fruit based shop but either way, it's a healthy alternative and in a good location. Once I figured out it was Herbal Life, I knew what flavors i liked already. Cookies and Cream and Banana Carmel are my goto. I will say the difference between this place and the others I've been to are how they choose to premix their aloe and tea together and they serve the tea only cold(from what I've seen) n a large cup.Other places you can can take aloe shot solo or in a small portion cup with warm or cold tea and it's usually taken before the meal replacement shake. They have add ins like immune boosters and metabolism boosters. Coffee options too that I've yet to try at any location. Price: This is definitely on the more expensive side. The shake and tea combo is $11. The place on Main near Hamilton I used to frequent is $7 for all 3 and included a free workout class. With that, I can't commit to visiting as often as I'd hope to. Cute little plastic face seals in the cup, nice touch. I'll definitely visit again but a daily price of $12 is a little too much. I didn't inquire about membership at all. Of course if you choose to buy the shakes and make them at home it's a lot more affordable.

They are all super rich, sugary flavors filled with syrup, which is not what i'm looking for when getting a smoothie. I couldn't even pick one off the menu and I just wanted a simple berry smoothie. The açaí bowl was very disappointing. I paid about $15 for it and it wasn't even filled up halfway in the little container they give you. I lived in NYC for the last few years and spent $15 on açaí bowls all the time that gave you a real serving, way more than this. I was hopeful i'd find my new go to spot, but I won't be returning *to clarify I did get a smoothie for my boyfriend and I did try it. My bowl was also $15 since I added extra toppings.

There is a Mike (I think that's his name...) who is a barista and is fantastic at what he does. I guess he used to work at Starbucks, now he is there. I always ask him to make a caramel macchiato and he makes it WAY BETTER than Starbucks. Talented. I had a Starbucks one the other day and it just wasn't anywhere near the Java Cyber quality. I've had a few other drinks there too, some Milky Way drink and a few lattes. All fabulous. If you are downtown and near the columbus library, then I would suggest stopping by to see what quality coffee tastes like. :)

There are food options for all tastes, from sandwiches to healthful snacks to candy. I tried the oat bar Sean mentioned (small but way filling) and grabbed a pumpkin spice cake for later. As I sat across the hall at one of the little metal tables, I got to see the barista help people not only to coffee and tea but to all kinds of directions around the library, as well. He's visible even before visitors reach the desk where an actual library employee sits, and I can only imagine he must get hit with all sorts of questions that are outside of his domain. But he remained friendly and helpful throughout. If you're driving, you can enter the parking garage from Library Park N, along the northern side of the library. The signs for parking, exiting, and going in the correct direction are clear. Get your parking ticket stamped while you're still in the building -- there are machines across from JaVa's and near the elevators to the parking levels. It's cheap; I was there for almost two hours and only paid $0.50.
