    I can see why this place only has three stars on average. I had just left the dentist office next door and my daughters wanted smoothies. I thought "great idea it may help my swelling to have a frozen healthy treat" when we saw a sign that said "closed for a few minutes. Online orders please knock" first off what does that even mean? What's a few minutes? When did you put the sign up? And more importantly WHY? My grand daughter was playing in the puddles from the rain and I tried the door. Open. Perfect. We walk inside. Two girls were working barely late teens or very young looking. One got annoyed and said "online order?" I said no. As I'm looking at the menu. She said "oh well we're closed due to having a large catering order." So hold up. You're not closed for a "minute" you're closed all day because you can't handle doing your job and a large order? But didn't lock the door and didn't put that on the sign. This tells me your boss probably had no idea this was happening and if they did well then I guess they don't want to stay in business long. Shame too I was excited to try this place but if they can't get their stuff together and be honest and transparent. Not sure I will return.

    What better way to stop melting in Arizona by grabbing a cold treat at Tropical Smoothie Cafe. The portion of their smoothies are huge and so filling. It's perfect for breakfast or lunch. I like that their smoothies aren't artificially sweet. The workers are super nice and patient. The inside of the store was busy and super clean. @cravingswithcat

    They have the yummiest PB Bowls + Smoothies. Love coming here when we're in town for work. This has become a staple in our family.

Most of the drinks are not very good, especially for how overpriced everything is. I have recommended this place to others, and they have said the same thing. Many of them chose not to return. The biggest issue is the service. It is consistently unprofessional. There have been times where I was the only person waiting, and it still took a long time just to order because the worker stayed in the back and only came out when he felt like it. On multiple visits, the worker has also sighed heavily, taken a deep breath, and rolled his eyes while I was ordering, even when the order was simple. Other people I know have experienced the same thing. It creates an uncomfortable environment and makes customers feel like an inconvenience just for ordering. The wait times are excessive. It can take up to 30 minutes just to place an order and close to an hour to receive a drink. Having only one person running the shop is clearly not working. At this point, the pricing, service, and wait times do not match the experience being provided. After multiple visits, nothing has improved, and there is no reason to continue coming back.

Wraps, açaí bowls, sandwiches, even protein beverages since there's a gym nearby - you get what you pay for. I love the Phoenix Wrap and the Chicken Pesto. You're typically choosing anywhere from 25 grams to close to 50 grams of protein when you eat here, though if there is anything to note, it would be that a lot of the sandwiches are $15+. You choose your budget, but don't miss out if you're looking to spend a little bit more. The staff behind the counter is usually laidback and pleasant. It's a calm place, and they don't mind letting you stay. If you have work needing to be done, it isn't a bad choice either. If I could give this place 5 stars for its smoothies, but maybe 4.5 stars for their sandwiches... I would. A lot of the times, I personally find that with the wraps exclusively, they tend to be lacking something salty or something on the side to feel like a complete meal. It's strange that it isn't with the sandwiches, but the last time I came, I saw they were doing specials. Be sure to check in for those. They also do sell chips there so it helps, but just keep that in mind. Cheers to healthy and enjoyable eating though. Great place, though not always my own personal pick.

I was actually heading to Chipotle for my kids and found Phoenix Phresh in the same shopping center... I stopped by and purchased myself a wrap. PP is a fast casual, order at the counter little place with friendly service and very fresh food. I enjoyed my wrap and will absolutely return for more next time I'm in the area!

    We're visiting from out of town and I've been wanting to give this place a try. I'm so glad we did!…read moreThe line wasn't long, even then if it was I would've gone either inside to order or had ordered ahead of time for pick up. The long line I believe wouldn't be so much the employees fault. If anything it's more on the customers side, most of the time customers will order x amount of drinks that'll cause the back up of the line. I didn't get the chance to get the girls name that was took our orders and the other that was at the register. They were super nice and helpful and made the whole experience amazing! I really appreciate how they were personable, friendly and had great customer service skills. In addition to that they had product knowledge. It was really helpful that the person taking orders could offer suggestions on drink orders being that I was a first time customer. We also ordered food two burritos and the sriracha sour cream or cream cheese sauce that came with it was really good! I can't wait to come back again and try a new order.

Lots of seating, good lighting, the staff is friendly and they have a convenient drive-thru. While this will probably not be a Black Rock Coffee Bar that I visit often, this is the one closest to my parents' house. It's a great place to stop when I need an extra boost of caffeine before having to help my parents with whatever phone or Facebook problem their having. Just a note: The Strawberry Blondie with Sweetheart Coldfoam they had going on for Valentine's Day... tasty! Very Instagrammable.
