    Did a pick up order here & the staff was great. The order was on time, the food was good! Nothing more you can ask for

    What a deal!!!!

    What a great wrap and smoothie! The team delivered on an accurate order. The Island Decor is colorful & fun. This week's reward/promotion is one to check out. It did not disappoint!! Thank you!!

    OK I'm not really a smoothie person and I thought I would never walk into a tropical smoothie café. But one opened really close to me and I was curious, so I was going in to get a menu and I was surprised at all the food they had I ended up coming back to get a flat bread which came with chips. It was actually very good. I ate it all so there is no picture. I will definitely be back.

    I don't generally review a place after only one or two visits; but I've been a fan of the Tropical Smoothie Cafe chain, and felt compelled to share how good my two (thus far) experiences were with this new addition to our neighborhood. Their location is very convenient, the staff all seem nice, and everything was tasty - I think folks should try them out. I got a wrap and smoothie shortly after the Deerfield Tropical Smoothie Cafe opened, and I was impressed at how "with it" their staff were despite the store having only been officially open a week. The hummus veggie wrap was delicious, and the "Peanut Paradise" smoothie was pretty good (a little sweeter than I anticipated, but that's on me for forgetting to ask for the milder pea protein instead of their whey powder). My second trip was almost a year later, and the service and food were just as good as my first visit. The Thai chicken wrap was excellent (reminded me of something I got from Tea Harbor before they closed), and I loved the "Chia Banana Boost" with peanut butter powder. I really REALLY wanna try them for breakfast, next - that Southwest egg wrap is calling my name! For the past year, I haven't been in the Deerbrook area very much... But I've been around more and more. I'm definitely going to be stopping here more frequently, and I'll update my review. Thus far, however, my two visits have been very positive. I like Tropical Smoothie Cafe, in general, and the Deerfield location seems to be as good (or better) than every other location I've ordered from.

    Staff was incredibly friendly and fast. Food was incredible, I highly recommend the Chicken Caprese Sandwich and the Sunrise Sunset smoothie. I'll definitely be back! Pro hack- if you're looking for a lunch work spot, WiFi is great!

    Ordered online and it was done at the estimated pick up time! Lots of space at this location, employees were friendly. The interior is cute, they have tables and a separate pick up area for delivery services (oh hey, they deliver which is always nice). Feels very clean and in line with what a healthy food place would look like. Ordered the chicken pesto flatbread, it's comparable to the Starbucks turkey & pesto panini - both are great. Detox smoothie is awesome! Only thing I'd change is the same thing that another customer brought up, the packaging! Hopefully they find a way to switch over to something more earth friendly or compostable soon!

When I went up to put my name on the list, the man writing names down was extremely rude to me and my family. The man at the front also made multiple microaggressive comments toward us, which made the experience uncomfortable from the start. The food, in my opinion, was also subpar. I ordered two eggs with bacon, potatoes, and pancakes. The eggs and potatoes were good, but the pancakes tasted strange, and the bacon tasted old and honestly pretty disgusting. My sister ordered the "Factory French Toast," and she said it literally tasted like something that came straight from a factory. My mom ordered the meat omelet and said it was just okay. When it was time to pay, we asked for the check to be split three ways. When we received the bill, we noticed they had charged us an additional fee just for splitting it. On top of that, while we were waiting in line to pay, the employee clearly saw us standing there, yet allowed another man to cut in front of us. There was also a confusing moment when my sister accidentally dropped a few things, including her card and my mom's card. Someone at the front helped pick them up, but then tried to pay using whichever card he had in his hand with a random receipt. My sister had to politely correct him. Overall, the service felt disorganized and disrespectful, and the food did not make up for it. Unfortunately, this was a really disappointing experience for my family.

Most breakfast…read moreplaces tend to jam in seats everywhere to make the most of their space and then it's a noisy, packed mess. Eggsperience is a big open and airy room in an antique white and light blue coloration making you feel at ease and welcome like a nice Spring day. We were seated at a table for four, but an additional person joined us and we figured we'd make room for five at our table. The staff insisted we move to a five-person round table despite them being busy. It was a nice sized table and gave plenty of room for five to six people, Our server was a lovely girl who was always coming by. The menu is huge and since we were all talking and having a good conversation, I never really was able to focus, so I ordered a traditional two eggs any style with meat and toast or pancakes. I got my eggs scrambled and dry, with bacon crispy and added diced potatoes (the ones that are just potatoes and nor peppers and diced onions), a toasted English muffin, and asked for a Diet Coke. She asked if I wanted Diet Pepsi or Pepsi Zero. PEPSI ZERO?!!! No one ever has Pepsi Zero. I said absolutely yes to the Pepsi Zero. So she brought me two mason jar mugs because she wasn't sure which was the Diet and which was the Zero. Apparently a staff member attached the two drinks to the wrong fountain heads and she wanted to know which I wanted. I was able to pick the Zero out fairly easily. How cool, Pepsi Zero. Anyway, we all got our food nd mine was made perfectly the way I ordered it. The eggs were made dry (not cooking with butter or oil), the potatoes were just roasted potatoes, the bacon was crispy, the English muffin was toasted (so my whipped butter filled in all the nooks and crannies - as they should do as advertised on TV), and the drink was Pepsi Zero! And our server was quick to replenish drinks. Plus, the cost does not break the bank. Many breakfast places tend to overprice their breakfast items. I wish I came here sooner. I't's easily one of my favorite breakfast places (easily in the Top 3). It was not just a pleasant experience. It was an Eggsperience (sorry, had to do the cheap pun!) :)

The bacon wasn't cooked completely so fatty and greasy. I tried to catch our server's attention, but she wasn't anywhere to be seen until it was time for the check. We've tried to give this place several chances as I like to shop at Fresh Farms, but each time the meal has disappointed.

There's too many delicious restaurants around the area to put up with mediocre food, high prices, rude ownership, and poor service. Upside is that the restaurant is clean and there's a nice fireplace that some can sit in front of.
