I haven't made up my mind about Nekter, yet…read more I like the options, the fruit juice drinks, the options to add other things, but I can't quite put this over the top. It's changed some since it first opened, with more easily modified choices, at least from how the menu reads. With that said, during busy times this place is a step away from hectic and not worth the wait if you're pressed for time. The drinks are very good, and with no extras making it impossible to distinguish tastes. It's a pricey alternative to at home smoothies, but far healthier than the sugar-laden options available elsewhere. If a pre-selected flavor variety isn't quite what you want, you can add or substitute choices, but know that's where the price adders will come. Still, if healthier choices is one of your goals, Nekter has you covered.

When traveling for work I try to find places I've never been to before, but I also like having…read morehealthy options. I was in luck when I stumbled upon this spot This location was slightly outside of downtown Billings where I was located, but it was worth the short drive The interior is spacious, immaculate, and trendy. The staff was exceptionally friendly and efficient, and the food was good The menu offers a variety of salads, bowls, wraps, smoothies, juices, etc. ALL the healthy meals! The ingredients are fresh, and you can see them before they start preparing your meal I ordered the Spicy Southwest bowl, and it was delicious, hearty, and had just the right amount of heat/spice. I also tried the Date Night smoothie which was pretty good, but I didn't love the texture. I also tried a rice vegan crispy treat, and that wasn't for me. The texture/consistency was all wrong. No crisp, no bite, and lacking in any real flavor Some tips: If you don't see a bowl, salad, or wrap that catches your eye you can create your own. Also, one of Crisp & Green's core pillars is impacting the community from a health and wellness standpoint, and they host health and wellness events. Check out their Events page on their website for dates, times, and descriptions Cheers!!

So if you don't want that much of a smoothie you're out of luck here. But you can always save some for later in the fridge! Their flavors are more protein based, lots of options there. Not very many fruit options so if you are bringing a child just know their aren't many options-but their are some. And also note they are large so you could probably split one between two kids. They also offer wraps and bang energy drinks. I feel like they are really geared towards the fitness community, which makes sense with 9 round being right there. Overall a good alternative to other places and will try again.

With an island-inspired atmosphere, Kava Roots has created something different in Billings. It's…read morenot kombucha, or coffee, or tea, but a kava drink made from the roots of the kava plant. Anyone who has spent time in the pacific islands more than likely knows and has drunk it. Although it's not the first place to offer kava in billings, it's the first kava bar. As you enter, the laid back atmosphere is obvious. The person behind the bar, sometimes the owner, will immediately ask if you have been in or had kava before, and if not, happily run through the spiel about kava, what it purports to do, or does not do, how it tastes and then make recommendations. If you've never seen ground kava before, it looks like any powdered mix to which you add the liquid of your choice. There are many flavor options here, and much depends on whether you want to taste the kava, or just experience the purported effects. Because it's not alcohol, you can grab one to go. However, even though it isn't alcohol, it does come come with warnings regarding interactions with drugs, increased heart rate, and, the potential for abuse. It seems that a lot of "fun" things can be abused, so no surprises, there. One of things kava purports to do, in addition to the feeling of well-being, is increase sociability. Well, based on my short time at Kava Roots, they might be on to something, because there were a lot of relaxed, talkative people. Kava Roots is a cute place, offering something different, and makes it feel like you're away from the grind and on your way to the beach. While I don't know that it will become a regular place for me, I did enjoy it enough that I won't hesitate to visit again. There were too many flavor choices for me to give up after a couple of visits.

They have a smoothie/juice bar as well as some healthy sandwich and wrap options on the menu that I didn't get to try! I had the sunrise juice, which they make fresh to order! It was soooooooooo good, I'll be looking for something like it near where I live, probably forever!!! They got my first juice out to me quickly and when I showed up later in the day he had just closed but told me that he would make me another anyway the store is conveniently located, clean and has great vitamin/supplement/wellness offerings and healthy grocery food options as well. I hope business brings me back to Montana so I can visit again!

Breakfast or lunch you cannot beat this place. Hot Chi lattes even. They honor military families with a discount-thank you! Quality & quick, in a clean space-love that! One wall is glass so that you can see the operation in process. My husband had the sunrise supreme bagel, I had cheddar bacon bagel with cream cheese and a Chi latte and we were out the door for under $20 ( after military discount) So much better than fast food! Oh and before I forget-they even have bagel bones for the doggies in your party!

It's always good to have drive-thru coffee options and Scooters has provided one more in the area…read more Scooters originated in Nebraska and found its way to Billings. As a drive-thru only coffee shop located just off a busy intersection, they're competing with the other local shops but fortunately for them, no-other drive-thru is in the immediate area. When you order your beverage (they have way more options than just coffee), a pleasant voice will tell you to "scoot around" to the pick-up window. At first, I thought this was just a clever introduction, but no, they say that to everyone every time. It's sort of cute, but sometimes not so much. As for the coffee, it doesn't wow me. It is good, it has caffeine, the workers are friendly, but the coffee itself is nothing spectacular. The prices here are consistent with the market. I might be the only one who thinks that because that drive-thru window is crazy busy especially on weekends. Like most chain places, Scooters has an app that will let you collect points toward a free drink. I've been to this location several times, and despite scanning the app before paying, I've never accumulated any points, so don't count on it working for you. It's a new location though, so perhaps they're still working out the system glitches. The Scooters logo on the cups is smile-worthy and sometimes that's enough. I'd visit here again just for that -- seriously!

Located off the lobby in a hotel, Mama Jo's has an old- time atmosphere. I can't speak for the…read morehotel and its not-so-good reviews, but Mama Jo's has quite a varied menu and some really nice people helping you decide what to get. It's best to come earlier when the place isn't busy because things are a little less relaxed later in the morning. MJs original skillet was really good, with plentiful large pieces of potato, onion, green pepper, sausage and bacon. It was more than enough food. The hollandaise sauce was okay, a good balance to the sausage and bacon. All that on the first visit. The next time I stopped by, I was not as impressed. The service was good, but not as outstanding as the first time. The kitchen staff must have been overwhelmed with orders because the food was salty and the sauce, still not spectacular, toned down the saltiness so that was a positive, but it was missing the same wow factor for me. There's also a breakfast buffet but I don't know if it's open to all or only hotel guests. There's also a coffee shop attached to Mama Jo's and the coffee has been good, but a bit overpriced. Still, it's a break from the chain stores and will get you on your way. It's a 3 1/2 star place for me, but I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and round up.
