    I was in the mood for a great smoothie and that's what I got! I really enjoyed the mango magic smoothie. It consisted of mango, pineapple and non-fat yogurt. My mom chose the jetty punch smoothie and she enjoyed it as well. Her smoothie consisted of strawberries and bananas. This location does have a drive thru as well. The inside is clean and has plenty of tables to sit down. There were quite a few people inside. The bathroom was clean. The cashier was nice and helpful. Our smoothies came out quickly! I will be back to try something off the food menu!

    Disappointed the system let me order something out of stock on the mobile app. But the staff was friendly, and made a chia pudding bowl with the toppings I wanted on the acia bowl. The chia pudding bowl was so delicious. And I definitely would have it again.

    I am a frequent TSC customer in various locations. I love writing reviews (I don't like to leave negative ones) and I'm heart broken to say that this Tropical Smoothie Cafe is the WORST location that I have ever visited. I got a green dream bowl and there was a piece of RUBBER in the bowl... yes, RUBBER. It was the first bite and I literally chewed it and am so thankful that I didn't eat it. I love the green dream bowl, but lost my appetite after that first bite. I was on a road trip and they said that the only way I could get a refund/new bowl is if I returned to the store. So I drove out of my way back to the location like an hour later to only be told that I couldn't get both a refund/return. That was confusing and miscommunication as I thought that's what the solution was. I went out of my way for a mistake, which I tried to be nice about to only leave with a customer service experience that left me disappointed... I work customer service as well and I really try to be kind-spoken... but this experience could've been made better but was left feeling dissatisfied. I wish there was clearer communication and more attentiveness towards resolving a situation like this... I love TSC and I understand that mistakes happen, but this was a bad experience.

    Tropical Smoothie Cafe (TSC) has been blazing a trail around the Low Country lately! They opened this location in Pooler and most recently in Savannah on Abercorn in the same year! I first discovered TSC when we lived in Virginia Beach many moons ago and liked their healthy offerings among the many chain restaurants. We like to visit a TSC location while we're traveling especially, because the choices of road trip eats is really limited, not very enticing and generally not very healthy! We recently visited this location at the drive thru for a quick boost just before heading over to Tanger for a morning of shopping. - Parking - Center lot. It is located on the small strip of businesses just before you enter the Tanger Outlets on Tanger Outlets Blvd. I believe it's still considered a part of the Tanger Outlets. It's the business on the end and it has a Drive thru! - Vibe - They've definitely gotten a face lift in the past year or so. Not sure how long ago, because we've only been back on the mainland for about 1 1/2 years now, but it's bright, colorful, fun and fresh looking. Exactly what a smoothie shop should look like! - TLC - The lady who took our order and took care of us at the window was very nice. - Sips & Noms - My husband ordered the Peanut Butter Cup with a shot of Whey protein and I ordered the Island Green. His smoothie tasted as usual, but mine just tasted bland. Maybe too much ice and not enough ingredients? I've enjoyed it in the past, but maybe the smoothie maker didn't measure the ingredients properly that day? I would have definitely asked for a new one had we dined in, but we had already made it over to the main Tanger Outlets complex and didn't feel like lopping back. Eh, it hapens. Smoothies are one size at 24 oz, priced at $5.19. Supplements are at an additional cost obviously. The Whey was $0.99. They also have a pretty decent selection of eats that range from salads, sandwiches, wraps and quesadillas. In the past, we've had a variety of things to eat and all have been great. - Kiddos - Kids smoothies are 12 oz at $2.99. My kids love smoothies so they slurped it right up! TSC is definitely a great addition to Pooler and in that area specifically. A lot of people are traveling up and down I-95 and if I was a hungry traveler, I would definitely consider stopping here before some of the other spots, for a quick, healthy bite before hitting the road again!

    I an ecstatic to have one of my favorite food spots finally here in town. I have searched since moving from Florida and the closest was in Jacksonville but today was the grand opening of a new one in Pooler! Being one of the first 50 winners to get smoothies for a year is the highlight of my day today! Make sure to get down and try the awesome natural smoothies of Tropical Smoothie Cafe. Every bit of flavor is experienced in their drinks and the wraps are made to devour cause you won't want to miss a bite. Whether its to detox or workout meals TSC has the perfect blend for you. Plenty of island flavors also to choose from, you'll for sure make this a top spot. Welcome to Pooler TSC

    It should not take 14 mins to make 2 smoothies. We were the only car in the drive thru and only 1 customer in the cafe. The server Sequoiya acted like she did not care to be at work. When handing us our smoothies she just said "here you go". Horrible customer service especially when we had to wait so long with no apparent reason. Once we got our smoothies there was no taste at all. I order the same smoothie every time and this was by far the worst.

    Bad apples and bananas
    Angelynn J.

    This is probably the worst Tropical Smoothie I have ever been to. The server Jessica was rude and the food is taking forever to be ready. The bananas and apples were very bad. We ordered a sandwich and a salad; 20 mins later we got two sandwiches. They offered to make the salad but we didn't want to wait another 20 mins to eat so we jus took it. That was the longest wait ever for a tropical smoothie. This is the worst tropical smoothie I have ever been to. I will never come back to this Tropical Smoothie. I'm very disappointed.

    The food at this location was okay, but the customer service really missed the mark…read more We specifically asked for a baked potato with ranch on the side, but when the food came out, the ranch was already on the potato. I pointed it out right away, and the employee responded, "I told them, but they didn't listen to me," and just walked off. No effort to fix it or take ownership. I ended up taking the potato back to the counter myself and asked for it to be remade. When it was brought back out, the gentleman who delivered it didn't say a word--no apology, no acknowledgment, nothing. What made it more frustrating is that the restaurant wasn't busy at all--we were one of only two tables there. Situations like this are easy opportunities to provide good service, and unfortunately, that didn't happen here

    This was a great stop for a casual meal and everything came out just right…read more I ordered a baked potato and a sandwich and both were really good. The baked potato was hot, fresh, and loaded well, and the sandwich was made perfectly with fresh ingredients and great flavor. It was simple food but done the right way, which is exactly what I was hoping for. The restaurant itself was clean and comfortable with a relaxed, easy going atmosphere. Even though it was a busy time, the service stayed friendly and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time. Overall it was a solid experience with good food, good service, and a convenient spot to grab a satisfying meal. I would definitely come back again when I am in the area.

"No, I didn't Anna Mae, that was a gas station." "Yea, I know Will, that was PhatGirlz", replied Anna Mae. "Oh, I thought the GPS was off", replied Will. "Yea Will, it's the GPS..." said Anna Mae. And so as our Will and Anna Mae discovered what we all know who really enjoy eating delicious, tastebud tantalizing, tum tum satisfying outstanding home cookin know, your Chef/Owner here at PhatGirlz can really craft the best home cookin we tasted in the Savannah area. Yea man, it is good-oud! We decided to dined in, being tortured by the Leopoldo's ice cream case the entire time as our food was prepared fresh because we gave up ice cream for lent. But I have been distracted and stayed from our focus here. Anybody got some ice cream? We covered the ambiance, FatzGirlz's is located in a gas station with a very clean restaurant, concrete floors, and three, two top tables. So dining in has limited seating but is very pleasant. But fret not, they offer carry out meals which are very popular as there was a continuous stream of customers the entire hour and a half we dined that did not stop. Here is why we enjoy going to a restaurant, it's the FOOD! And the food here is savory, tasty, hot, perfectly cooked, and an awesome eating experience. They offered us the best corn bread we have ever eaten topped with a chef recipe Maple and Bourbon topping which tasted fantastic. We ate the Salmon, crabmeat and shrimp and I could not finish it because it was a large portion which almost never happens. So come prepared to eat. My lovely, pristine beauty dining mate had their kissed fried shrimp that were so light, the shrimp floated above the surface of the table waiting patiently as they danced into our mouths. The candied sweet potato's were divine, and the collard greens were perfect. You don't just enjoy this food, you savor every bite! We met our Chef/Owner, her Sister, and our Server who were all a hoot and a lot of fun to talk with in this Family affair restaurant. I could go on, and on here but do yourself, your Family, and friends a favor by piling them all into your wide ride, and slide on over to PhatGirlz so they can all, thank you, and they will, for helping them enjoy a great meal. You see, as it turns out the FOOD here is just outstanding. Enjoy!

Like everybody I have gotten used to less than stellar, fast food service nowadays given the challenge with finding good labor. But this Jersey Mike's Location really needs to reevaluate It's current employee roster. And starting with the Young gentleman who was the primary person making sandwiches the day I visited, they need to give this kid the pink slip or find a new way to motivate him because he was clearly not happy about being at work and seemingly took it out on the customers via excruciating, slow and sloppy customer service. From the time we walked in the front door to the time I finally paid for my sandwiches and left, It took almost 25 minutes. And I know you're reading this and saying why would you stick around that long but this was one of those days when I just wasn't willing to go somewhere else Simply because Service wasn't up to standards. But I should have. One of the problems is, they seemingly didn't have a good system for handling large corporate orders, while simultaneously serving regular customers. This was punctuated by two employees, consistently, crossing back-and-forth between the primary employees preparing sandwiches, which further disrupted time and precision. Three or four customers bought their sandwiches back to the front counter while I was in line because they were either made incorrectly or missing ingredients. I would definitely avoid this location if you have somewhere important to be or just need to get things done during the day.
