The tropical smoothie in Culpeper VA is a excellent place to go! More options than my local tropical smoothie. Always clean. They are nice and the waiting time is appropriate. Very much recommend coming to this one! read more

The smell when you walk in the door smell like mold. The smoothie don't it even taste like it's supposed to it taste like just frozen ice. The lady didn't even wear no gloves she grabbed the ingredients with her bare hands and blended it up. She didn't wash her hands before hand either so nasty. I need to add to the review the flies in the place has to go as well. read more

I'm upset with the poor service with curbside, I ordered around 6:15pm and it said it would be ready at 6:29pm. I waited a bit longer just to be considerate because it could have been busy. My fiancé goes in for me and he said my smoothie had been sitting on the counter the whole time he was waiting to be serviced so he had the smoothie remade since it was clearly melted down. This is the 3rd time this has happened. The other 2 times I had my sleeping baby in the car and didn't want to take him out. So I had to call the store both times and I was given attitude both times. I seen another review having the same issue, so whoever the manager is needs to improve curbside pickup service. read more

Title: Disappointing Curbside Experience I recently visited this location which I normally do when visiting my wife who works at the hospital specifically because it's one of the few that offer curbside pickup and had high hopes for a smooth curbside pickup due to another conflict in October when I showed the employee and informed her that this location does offer curbside, but unfortunately, my experience fell short. After placing my order, I waited for my food to be ready at the designated time. However, when I arrived, my order had not hit the ready by time and I waited and heated up some milk to start feeding the baby. After feeding the baby and not an employee brining the food out I headed inside and noticed the food was left sitting on the counter for a full 18 minutes part my ready time. To make matters worse, when I finally managed to get my baby out of the car seat and went inside to collect my order, I noticed both employees were browsing on their phones. It felt like they were not prioritizing their curbside service and that it was not taken seriously as part of their responsibilities Curbside pickup is supposed to be convenient, especially for parents with young children, and this experience was anything but that. I hope they can improve their service in the future, as I would love to enjoy their smoothies without the added stress. read more

Great service, very friendly staff. The food was excellent and the place looked very clean

My first time ever coming to a tropical smoothie. Tried the NEW CAPRESE GRILLED CHEESE. fresh mozzarella, parmesan, white American cheese, fresh tomatoes, pesto and balsamic glaze on toasted sourdough. Served with a side. And ordered these chips and chocolate chip cookie. Had to wait a while for my food. Cashier gentleman got on the employees case for taking to long making my order. He asked what order she was working on now she said something and he sounded upset asking her where my order was? I guess she got the person in front of me and wasn't really working on mine and she started working on the person behind me. So wait time sucked. Tried the cookie, says it's made with Ghirardelli. I asked if they would heat it up for me and answer was we used to make the cookies and have them heated up and all but not anymore. So he couldn't heat up my $2.88 cookie up for me? That sucked. Ate all of it sandwich chips then cookie. And I must say I'll never be back. Was not impressed at all. Sandwich was just blah, and cookie was gross. Chips were chips. Very very disappointing experience. In my opinion it's not tropical smoothie but Tropical sPOOthie. read more

The slowest Tropical Smoothie I have ever been to, I literally drive outside of Culpeper to go to a different one, even though this one is closest to me. Horrible service and the male manager is rude. Wouldn't recommend read more

They were low on my ingrediants so they just skipped them instead of having me wait to restock their counter. Needless to say all my smoothie is all ice read more

Tropical Smoothie Cafe - Disgusting- pink ice - Sandwiches Near Me - Culpeper, Virginia

Owner degrades his employees, and it's clearly visible to the customer.. I know a number of employees that have left due to this issue, will not return.. read more

I love tropical smoothie but I hate that there is no consistency. some stores, like this one, like to use too much ice to try and save a buck I guess. so you get a watered-down $10 smoothie from the very first sip. I guess saving a buck is more important than retaining customers. Such a disappointment, will not go back to this one read more

I stopped in for a smoothie around 8:30pm. The place was completely empty and the cashier was cleaning the floors. This was my first time at this location and I decided to get your run of the mill strawberry pineapple smoothie. $5.00 later....I left the store and began slurping away. I really thought that it was overpriced but at least it was fresh.....at least, I saw her make it in the blender. As for the taste, it definitely left something to be desired. It tasted somewhat watered down and lacked the strong flavor that I am accustomed to with a smoothie. Honestly, a SLURPEE FROM 7-ELEVEN TASTES BETTER AND IS LESS THAN HALF THE PRICE! :( I was extremely disappointed!!!!! read more

Not happy with their ap or curbside pickup. Their ap is not user friendly because it changes location on you without you realizing it. This resulted in me paying for an order in Fredericksburg and not getting food in Culpeper for which the Culpeper location basically told me "tough luck" they couldn't change it to fix it for me so I just left without food. Also when you arrange for a pickup time from their ap you have to call them when you arrive or go inside because they're not watching the time for them to bring you your curbside order. Kinda defeats the purpose of the ap. Also, they don't pay attention to ap orders AT ALL and currently I'm still sitting in my car waiting for my order that was supposed to be ready 20 minutes ago. I went in and my order was sitting on some shelf that was forgotten about so now it's cold. Terrible management at this location. They have no systems in place for ap orders nor are organized in handling ap/curbside orders. They should disable this option at the Culpeper location because they cannot handle it and are passing people off. Very displeased. DO NOT USE THEIR AP!! You'll be left sitting in your car being told "it's coming" while it's actually sitting on a shelf. Horrible. Not even an apology, so apparently this is just how they do things there. read more

I was very happy when this store opened in Culpeper. The smoothies are always done right (imo) and friendly service. The only drawback is when this place is busy, like 5+ customers in the line, it can take a while to get your order. Especially if there's only one person in the back making the drinks, one doing the hot foods and one cashier. If they had more help I think the orders could have taken less time to be brought out. So I try to go in there when it's not busy. Ample parking, close to shopping (Martin's, Target, Staples PetSmart )..... read more

Great experience. Wide variety of smoothies and delicious sandwiches, wraps, and bowls. I love the half sandwich + smoothie combo. The smoothies are huge! Staff was super nice and the manager was very hands on and customer-service oriented. The restaurant itself was bright, tidy and clean. I will definitely be back. read more

first time ordering curbside pick up and my smoothie came out 10 minutes before my food did so my smoothie started to melt. I went inside and I had to wait another five minutes for the girl to attend me l. while she went out back outside without my food that was sitting on the counter for as long as i had walked in. she then told me that she had to take care of another more important customer that had been waiting for literally the same amount of time that I had. so i spent about 30 minutes waiting on 2 items. disappointing really. read more

The food and smoothies are great. The staff has always been friendly and helpful. I love the classic breakfast sandwich and jetty punch smoothie. Yum! read more

Typical chain location. Asked the barista which fruits were real fruits (even if frozen) and what was juice from concentrate and wasn't able to tell me. Asked for Splenda and got regular sugar. I can make better smoothies at home. read more

I came in with my grandma and the employee who helped us was very nice. He made lots of great suggestions when we had questions about the menu. I wanted my grandma to try adding greens to her smoothie, telling her it wouldn't taste any different but she is a little stubborn so she said no! Lol but the man came to bring us a sample with spinach and kale a couple minutes later and she ended up loving it! Now she wants me to take her back to get a smoothie with greens!! :) read more

My son and I have never heard of Tropical Smoothie Cafe, but decided to go in anyway. I was hungry, but not starving and wanted something to tie me over until dinner. My son and I ordered the Smoothie and a Half, which is a smoothie of your choice with a small sandwich (a selection of about 6). I sat down and expected my wait to be about ten minutes or more. Within 2 minutes, the young lady brought our smoothies to our table. First of all, the smoothies were HUGE. I couldn't believe it. Within another 2 minutes, our sandwiches were ready as well. We ordered our food to go, but the smoothies and sandwiches were delicious. Not only were they tasty (maybe even better than Dairy Queen), but filling. Our snack ended up being our dinner and kept us satisfied all night. My only issue is that there are no Tropical Smoothie Cafes near my home. read more

Went there a long time ago now and never went back becuase the service was SO BAD. I had to wait... Kid you not... 17 minutes for my order, a sandwich, cant remember which one, but veggie tarian type, im sure. The kids working there were too busy fooling around to notice they had a customer for a bit. Prices are rediculous. And as I said. Never Been Back. read more

Love Tropical Smoothie and have yet to visit a bad location. Staff is friendly and their smoothies are always yummy!

This location needs to train there employees on fast friendly service. Not to be aloud to stand around and talk to the one person making the food. My wrap was pulled out of the oven and sat on top while i was clearly standing there waiting for it when one of the two people could have wrapped it for me while the other was making another order. Then the person making the food walks out and says he made my wrap incorrectly would i be ok with it or do i want to wait while he makes me another. No I wasn't happy with waiting even longer. Because he still goes in the back and doesn't wrap my wrap up and serve me with it he continues to make the food from the order behind me. Why doesn't the owner of this company train the employees to help the others out instead of standing around talking. The Fredericksburg VA location could train these employees they are fast and friendly and I have seen them help others out. Before i even went in to order my food my boyfriend didn't want me to because he said it always takes forever at this location. read more
