My best friend has never been to this cafe and she has been waiting for me to be in town to try it. I am visiting from Charlotte, NC. We have these cafes out there and I LOVE them. I decided to try a new shake and I went with the Kiwi Quencher. My bestie ordered the Peanut Butter Cup. She LOVED it. We also ordered a kids Jetty Junior. All drinks were a HUGE hit. This location was very clean. Staff was wearing masks as well as gloves. Social distancing was required. The staff was super friendly. I can't wait to come here again before I head back home. Keep up the good work you guys. read more

Tropical Smoothie Cafe - Sandwiches Near Me - Arvada, Colorado

Overall, smoothies options are average here. Anything else, in my opinion - Avoid. I keep coming here since this is closest smoothie place that opens later than others. Smoothies: I usually never buy anything here besides smoothies, and rightfully so (see next section). Island Green is my go-to as a treat. I've tried the Health Nut, Mango Magic, Orange Ginger Glow, and Sunrise Sunset. Smoothies run on the sweet side. Food: Pass. My partner keeps trying the food when he picks up smoothies (mainly out of convenience since he's already there and I made the same mistake today). Today, is the last smoothie straw, I will stick to smoothies only and skip the food. We have tried the quesadillas, flatbreads, and wraps. Why "no" to the food? -Sad portions. Skimps on every single ingredient for the salad. Wraps were okay two out four times, and quesadillas are small with not enough cheese overall. -The price for the portion (I understand inflation but the portion was like a kid's meal - $8.79 salad, not including tax) -Hit or miss on order accuracy (today's order is the only one I documented the mistake before I forgot. The receipt said, "no wontons" and then they add parmesan crisps to my Thai Chicken salad? See photo. I don't like parm crisps - removed parm crisps at home. Luckily, I'm not allergic to it.) Space: Open with decent amount of seating. Price: Average for smoothies. Overpriced for the food portion. read more

Properly the worst service I have ever got. My husband and I went in here for two smoothies and he got a buffalo chicken wrap. He ordered his food and smoothie then I ordered my smoothie. As we where ordering we could hardly hear her she seemed off and super quite. As she was making his wrap she had gloves on and picked her nose and then continued to make his food. The young man was much better he knew what he was doing that was making the smoothies. Unfortunately we only got one smoothie. She didn't even take my order and then she told me she didn't hear me. l spoke to her gave her my order, even asked her questions about the smoothie i was getting. Then she told me "I didn't say notthin". So I told HER AGAIN!! My order. She didn't give me my receipt so she was going to charge me again. I asked her if she could look at her previous orders. She couldn't do that. Thene she asked me to look at my bank statement. WTH I told her it will tell me the tottla not the order. I was pissed at this point and my husband and I walked out.. I don't recommend anyone else go here ever. The WORST a waste of time and our hard earned money. DONT GO HERE read more

This is my new favorite location! The staff was awesome. Bree (Breezie) was so nice and helpful and truly made our experience awesome! Thanks! read more

Bad açaí bowl. Too small and overpriced. Açaí firm and seems like it came out of the freezer. Good flavor though

Used to go here sporadically, but since June they've upped their game and now my kids and I crave it weekly. Service is fast, food is yummy (I really like their salsa). I just wish they didn't use styrofoam cups. Update: Bummer. This is my third time in a week here and I ordered a Santa Fe quesadilla while my son ordered a 3 cheese chicken. They accidentally made us a plain cheese and a chicken. They refused to make me a Santa Fe, stating I'd ordered a 3 cheese chicken and they were already remaking my son's. She even showed me the receipt (okay, so you entered the order wrong, thanks for the proof?) and asked if I wanted to take a menu "for the future" - like, for what? To study so I don't make ordering mistakes in the future? I'm good. I am not "Karen-y," but nothing makes me more irritated than this kind of customer "service". Even if I had ordered incorrectly (I'm sure I didn't), just make me the one I meant to order. How much can one quesadilla affect your bottom line? Now I'll just go to Intajuice. It's closer to my house anyway. Update #2: Well, I received a letter of apology and a $8 gift card for the above experience from corporate. Went back and had a pleasant experience. read more

My fiancé and I stopped by Tropical Smoothie around noon on Saturday, June 21st, and didn't even get to order the first thing we wanted. As soon as we walked in, a blonde guy behind the counter came up and rudely said, "I am NOT doing food right now," with zero explanation or customer service. No greeting, no apology, just attitude. Completely unprofessional and disappointing experience. I understand if you're busy but I would've been fine waiting for what we were going to order. read more

The smoothies here are usually pretty good. I used to crave their food and go often, but won't be going back. My visit today was during a busy lunch hour so the wait was expectedly a bit long - no biggie. While waiting with my 5 year old, I watched a customer hand a rotten apple back to one of the employees and swap it out for a different side. I took notice because it was gross looking, even from across the room. Our to-go order was ready next and I picked it up, said thank you, and left. We arrived home to find this same rotten apple in our to-go order and our quesadilla was undercooked and drippy with sauce (salsa?) that usually isn't in there ... it was soggy. For $15 after tip, I'm disappointed. My kid wouldn't eat the "gross" quesadilla and I wouldn't have him eat the apple either. So essentially we paid $15 for a smoothie. I have empathy for the food service industry. It's tough finding and retaining good people right now. But there is no excuse for handing out rotten food TWICE. read more

Lorraine was the only one working at this location, they were out of açaí but she made me 2 peanut butter bowls and an extra for the inconvenience. Thank you so much Lorraine read more

Very disappointed in quality and service. Four workers but only one making smoothies. There were 10 people waiting when we ordered and it took 25 minutes to get our smoothie. The smoothie was not blended and couldn't even drink it through the straw because of the many chunks of unblended ice and banana. We will not be coming back. read more

This is a newer location in the Arvada area. We've been to the one near IKEA but came across this while we were out and wanted to try it. We ordered two smoothies and a sandwich. The smoothies were made perfectly and were very delicious! My boyfriend said that his sandwich was hot and fresh and is one of the better Cuban sandwiches he's had. I would definitely recommend that you try this place! read more

I wanted to like this place SO bad but on my first visit let me just say the service was horrible. 6 people working, zero people in line- Any guesses how long it took someone to even GREET me? Come on guys, if you can't get to the register fine but at least nicely say HI WE WILL BE WITH YOU IN A MINUTE! Lacked basic customer service. The smoothie itself was just OK, definitely not $6+ good. Would have gone lower on stars but the establishment itself was pretty clean. I'll try this place one more time and if my opinion changes I'll update the review. read more

Ordered online said it would be ready 40 minutes ago and it's not. All I ordered is one smoothie?? Shouldn't be that hard. Can't even do the bare minimum for their jobs. read more

I really like this place... The staff is friendly and the smoothies are good. However, I got a smoothie today and have found multiple pieces of plastic wrapping blended into it. I'm assuming it's some sort of packaging that was accidentally left on one of the ingredients. Hopefully it isn't toxic. For a $6, I'd expect a little more attention to detail. read more

Tropical Smoothie Cafe - Plastic found blended into smoothie - Sandwiches Near Me - Arvada, Colorado

Of the 3 times I've been here, each smoothie has been pretty bad. I've gotten their green smoothies and they are so watered down and icy that there's virtually no flavor. They add way too much ice. So much that it's hard to suck it up the straw. They need to work on perfecting their recipes because each time I go they are not good at all. read more

I think the person whom took my order name was Isabelle. She has her airpods in talking on the phone. She came up and said "are you ready to order or what". Super rude don't recommend!!! read more

Tropical Smoothie Cafe - Their Smoothies Rock! - Sandwiches Near Me - Arvada, Colorado

First time here and already love it. The smoothie I had was the Chia Banana Boost and seriously tasted like heaven. It was such a good way to end the day. It tastes like candy but as you can see in my menu picture with the description it is loaded with healthy stuff. The food smelled amazing and sounds great so I will be coming back to try more foods out and take pictures. The place is in a pretty good location. Lots of parking and seating. It's kinda hard to spot from the main road. Highly recommended. read more

Better hope they don't mess up your order because they will not refund you your money and will get upset at you for calling about your missing item and will not care to make it right! Instead will tell you, you aren't being very helpful and speak down on you. This was my favorite smoothie spot and came very frequently but after today I will just find me another smoothie spot that actually understands what customer service is! Oh, I forgot to mention that when I called the general manger answered and he was the one who had no regard to my missing item. If the general manager behaves this way it says a lot about the company. read more

This is my second time coming to this location with my sister. I love their Peanut Butter Cup (chocolate, peanut butter and banana) smoothie and the first time I ever ordered it, it was perfect. So I decided to go ahead and order the same this trip. Taste wise- it's great, but I noticed when they were pouring my smoothie he was having difficulty getting it out of the blender. When I took a sip I could see why- majority of it wasn't blended up. Big chunks of ice and chunks of banana large enough I can't drink it through my straw, both end up obstructing the straw. The first time I ordered this smoothie it was crazy smooth and had no issues at all. Overall the trip was awesome though and well-deserving of 4 stars still instead of my original 5, staff is friendly, building was clean and well-lit, it's just a bit of a damper on the experience to be unable to drink the smoothie without having to [literally] blow chunks of ice and banana out of the straw every couple of ups to continue enjoying the smoothie. read more

Waited 20 minutes for her to start the smoothies while she was cleaning the line. Nails too long she can't do her job. Ended up dropping everything in the line because she can't grab anything. All that and our smoothies were made wrong. Yikes read more

The service is amazing and they have the best smoothies in town . And that peanut butter flat bread omg blow your socks off amazing . Thank you Hedi for showing me the ropes with a smile . read more

When we first approached we couldn't even tell if the store was open. On the bright side it looked like they were cleaning the shop but with the open sign turned off it looked like they were closed. The sign on the door says masks required but there were at least two employees not wearing one. We inquired about this and Rubi said "they don't really care." The quesadilla we ordered was cold and the cheese was not even melted. The two smoothies we received seem to be mostly ice and lacked flavor. Would not go back. read more

Tropical Smoothie Cafe is a great place to eat for a nice and healthy lunch and I would recommend it! I love the smoothies.

Went in on my lunch hour and ordered a smoothie. After waiting for about 20 minutes the guy that ordered after me got his order. So I asked where my order was and a worker (believe her name was Larissa) rudely answered, we have a lot of orders in front of yours. She did not ask my name to even find out where my order was. Even though the guy that ordered after me got his first. Finally got my order after 20 plus minutes of waiting for one smoothie. Ridiculous wait time and horrible customer service. Do not recommend!!!! read more

I tried Tropical Smoothie for the first time last weekend! I looked on the online menu before I went in so I wouldn't just be standing there staring at the menu:) Vivan helped me and was SUPER SWEET! I mentioned I had an allergy to banana's, she made sure my drink was made in a clean blender. I ordered the Bahama Mama and loved it! I went back a week later, Vivan happened to be working, she remembered me and again made sure my drink was not contaminated with bananas. Her customer service, knowledge of the menu, and overall attitude is the reason why Tropical Smoothie will be one of my favorite places! read more

Smoothies are amazing. The customer service is always spot on! I use the app to order then swing in an pick up. They are always so delighted when I take the time to tip cash still. read more

We love tropical smoothie and decided to stop in for smoothies on our way to the trails. Service was great. Extra good actually, we were greeted and everyone was pleasant. The cashier was even excited for us to try, what I believe was a seasonal, Watermelon smoothie. It's her favorite!!! She was great! Smoothies were excellent ! Service was splendid. Great job to this location! read more

Workers were talking rudely about previous customers right in front of everyone (it's an open style shop). The smoothie was full of chunks of ice, not so smooth. read more

Great selection of smoothies, sandwiches and wraps. I had the Health Nut smoothie which has blueberry, mango, banana, almond, and choice of protein. Its consistency is thick and did not melt or become watery, which I've experienced at other smoothie places. They offer calorie counts on the menu, as well as a range of supplements to choose from to add to your smoothie, making it a health-conscious choice. Portions are large, so a smoothie can be a great option as a meal in itself. I really enjoyed my smoothie and can't wait to go back and try more! read more

I just came here on June 17th I was pleasantly surprised. The chicken wrap was pretty pretty good and I will definitely be recreating at home or coming here to get it also the smoothie was a large size and also dairy free I really felt satiated and the island green smoothie is amaze also the staff is really nice read more

If your in front of customers you should really watch the language you use. Throwing f bombs around is completely unprofessional.

I've been to a different location before and was really impressed with their veggie wrap. The service and quality of the wrap at this location is subpar. I sat in the restaurant for 15 minutes before the guy making the food even started.. he was in the back doing other stuff. No sense of urgency whatsoever. The 2 girls making smoothies had A+ service and were getting people who only ordered smoothies in and out every quickly. When I finally got my wrap and began to eat it, I was pretty disappointed in the quality. It was barely full and lazily slapped together. I was there on a Thursday night around 7pm. Finally got my wrap at 7:30. It was not busy at all. If you order food, maybe try to go at a time this guy isn't working. read more

Every time I come to this place they take my order make my food and then set it on the counter and let it sit there for 10 minutes until I finally realize that it has to be my order because I've waited 20 minutes and everyone else has gotten their food and left then I ask about the bag on the counter and they go oh oops here's your food. Idiots read more

This one pains me to write because I really dig tropics smoothie. The staff at this particular store is having a really hard time. Every time I'm in there they are dead yet the staff is rushed, panicked, not very friendly and seem to lack overall basic intelligence. Today they gave me the wrong breakfast not a big deal they have three choices. Told them no worries I'll wait for the all-American I wasn't in a hurry. They then bring me a rushed all American wrap with ice cold cheese and eggs. Yuck! Somebody is going to get sick. I told the guy at the register. This is ice cold man. He says "aight". I said it's not "aight" and left. Please tropical smoothie. Fix this place. read more

Really delicious smoothies and quite the number of options! Traditional smoothies and add-ins but also healthy smoothies and healthy add-ins. I've really enjoyed every smoothie I've tried here thus far. They also have a nice food menu. I can't wait to try the hawiian quesadilla. This location is new and the restaurant is spotless. The smoothie-tenders are always really friendly and make non-pushy non-judgemental suggestions for my smoothies. Will return. read more

So after it was brought too the manager's attention more trying was done on how to blend the smoothie thank you
