it seems to be a smoothie desert in Wrigleyville area, so I stopped on by to the only location that…read morewas showing up on my map - I love the theme here of each smoothie being named after an L route! It's a very cute idea and from walking in you could see that the employee was making each drink with fresh fruit and vegetables - I got the green line express and my friend got the purple line. we both loved our drinks and added the vanilla protein. I am about 85% sure that they forgot the protein in my green smoothie. - here's the thing. there was one woman working there who was running all over the place while talking loudly on FaceTime. she then plugged her phone in in the middle of the room and had her FaceTime on max volume. we waited as the only people in the place for about 10 minutes and she just like did random things. - there were boxes everywhere and it just seemed like they were in the middle of moving out? there were two stools nowhere near the counter on the side (that was where her phone was blasting) it was a total mess and definitely not passing any cleanly tests.... - so yes, tasty and yes, there's potential. definitely not any poison in the drinks, but?!? what's happening!?

Pure Green has so many great tasting smoothies! My favorite is the Banana Nut smoothie -- it is so…read morecreamy and very filling. They also have oatmeal, acai bowls, and cold pressed juices. Their service is fast but it's a small place so it's better to just grab and go otherwise it can get a little packed in there. There is some seating facing the street so you can people watch. If you're looking for a healthy snack, you should try Pure Green.

New favorite smoothie place!! Came here on a Sunday afternoon on the most beautiful day and the…read morevibes were perfect. I love how bright and fresh the space is (not to mention the plants and architectural coffee table books). Not a ton of seating (only a few window bar seats) but a great spot to pop in for a smoothie or bowl! The prices are a little steep but what you expect from a juice bar and the quality is totally worth it. I got the berry açaí bowl and added almond butter and banana per a recommendation from our kind server and it was refreshing and delicious!! I will absolutely be back here!!

I shopped at Life Springs quite a bit when I lived nearby…read more Since then I have moved quite a distance away and dont have a good health food store in my area, so I am forced to buy online. Today after putting in a good sized online order, I was curious to check how prices lined up with Life Spring. I still have some containers of supplements I bought when I was last in the area so I was able to make comparisons. TO MY SURPRISE, THE PRICES AT LIFE SPRING WERE EQUAL OR LESS THAN THE ONLINE SUPPLIERS THAT I THOUGHT WOULD HAVE BEEN CHEAPER! So, to anyone tempted to save money and buy online, forget it! You will do as good or better with Life Spring! Plus, you will be dealing with some real nice local people who deserve your business!

Apparently Playa is well known on the east coast and my friend who was visiting saw there was one…read morenear, so we went. Playa Bowls is in a great location amongst a busy street to stop by if you're looking for a snack. The space isn't really meant for sitting and dining in, but there are some options to sit down for the quick bite. It can also get a bit loud with all the blending (to be expected!) I was impressed you could add quite a bit if you wanted. There are a great bit of options to mix and match, but I decided to go with a classic strawberry, banana, and Nutella. The açaí tasted exactly like the açaí served at Costco. It was decent enough and my friend's was similar, but oof, the prices aren't worth it. If I'm in a pinch and want something different than a smoothie, I'll consider stopping by again. But I can't say I'd really make coming back here a priority. It's stuff I can make at home for an eighth of the price.

Most people were picking up online orders. Ambiance (5/5): Window seats are available for dine-in, but it's like 6 barstools. This is definitely a grab-and-go/order online place.
