    Baja Chicken Bowl and wrap; Mango berry smoothie
    Megan T.

    We have recently become addicted to Tropical Smoothie Cafe. On our most recent visit, I got the Baja Chicken Bowl and my husband got the Baja Chicken Wrap. I've had the wrap before and loved it, but I love the bowl even more! We also split a mango berry cosmo smoothie - mango, strawberries, cranberries, and lime. This is unfortnately a seasonal smoothie, but it was fantastic. I've had some other smoothies that were really good, but we couldn't get enough of this one. Service was fantastic and quick. Highly recommend for a lighter lunch!

    I've never tried tropical smoothie cafe I've only ever went to smoothie king, but today they were offering a free 12 oz. sunrise sunset smoothie if you wore flip flops for national flip flop day. This place was packed! The smoothie was tasty and very tropical. It's kind of hard to mess up a smoothie, so I wasn't expecting anything special but it was tasty, I'd come again to try other flavors!

    The best place to get a smoothie! Other then me making my own!! the service is always pleasant and does things in a timely manner. The ambiance is great and always clean with no waits. Definitely recommend!

    Update: the service here has gone downhill, but the food and smoothies are still about the same. I have changed to what I order so the food options are great. The curbside option must be "optional" to the employees. Today, like quite a few of my previous visits, I chose the curbside option after ordering from the app. Lately, it's like a roulette wheel. Which will I get today, will I actually get curbside or will I actually have to go inside and see my order waiting on the counter. Today, like most days, I had to go inside to find my order already prepared. I checked to see how many people were working and how many people were in the restaurant. One customer was there who was waiting on their order and there were 4 employees. One was making the food and 2 looked like they were collecting the trash to take outside. BUT there was one was walking around not doing anything until I got my order and said my name followed by, "I ordered in the app for curbside pick up." The girl handed me my order without another glance and noticing that I said curbside pick up. Are they just not being trained? Seemed strange or lazy. Not sure.

    I've never been here before but I'm sure glad I did. The owner is very friendly and super helpful. We ordered food to go for our office and was very pleased. Chocolate chip cookies are delicious. I got the peaches and silk smoothie which has peaches, strawberries and banana. It was so good!! Very filling too. It had the right amount of ingredients! Everyone that got a smoothie really enjoyed it! I got the baha flat bread with chicken and it was good! Had peppers and red onions in it with a southwest ranch sauce. Bread was soft and fluffy. I will definitely come back here again! Next time I'm gonna try the jerk chicken wrap!

    Haven't been to a Tropical Smoothie since Florida days. I'm so glad I found this spot that's so close by. The smoothie that has kale (not sure which One it was) tasted amazing and I wouldn't know it had it in it if the gal at the register didn't tell me. The flatbread sandwich was amazing, did I say how AMAZING it was, and the pairing that the gal picked for me was awesome. Another thing I like is when I can go into a food location and the person taking the request can suggest something. Many places you go to they stare at you like a deer in headlights. If you work there, unless you have a food allergy, the company should make you taste it free of charge so you can acquit yourself with the products you are to sell! This gal admitted she hadn't tried them all, but again, I was impressed with the pairing.

    Blimey Limey!!!  This orange juice based smoothie is awesome!!!

    My wife's Aunt owns a place at Oak Island Beach & I happen to find this Smoothie joint that I got addicted to while there August of 2013. As we were leaving I told my wife that the only thing I was going to miss was my daily Smoothie. Well we moved to South Charlotte that same month & 2 months later I stumbled across the Fort Mill location. God shined down on me that day! I now frequent the place. I now enjoy the wraps for lunch or breakfast with my Blimey Limey Smoothie. My wife enjoys the Tropical Colada.

    This is the best smoothie shop around. Alex makes the best smoothies, they are always consistent and they make your tastebuds dance. I would highly recommend trying them out.

    Detox island green smoothie!!
    Angela A.

    Love this place, great service and great smoothies. My favorite is the Detox Island Green and a new one that I believe is a temporary special. It's a breakfast Chia smoothie but I think it's good for anytime of day. My pics show the exact ingredient but from memory it has chia seeds, roasted bananas, coconut. almonds, whole oats, dates and cinnamon and then you can decide to add peanut butter or two other fruit choices that I can't recall. I chose Peanut Butter. I could seriously go back everyday to have that. Try it! My daughter had the Blimey Limey and it was nice and limey. Definitely support this business, they have a great product. I took away one star because the décor of this location isn't one that makes you want to stay and eat and drink. I've been to one in Ballantyne Commons several times before discovering this one and their décor is bright and happy, crisp and clean and very inviting. But the smoothies are just as good. I haven't tried the sandwiches at this location but I will and then I'll update my review. Enjoy! That is all!

    Really enjoyed the smoothies I've had from here. I appreciate that they aren't too sweet.read more

    Good food? Yes! When I ever go back ? No! It's all in the…read moredelivery I have worked in service my whole life. I am always the person to give the benefit of the doubt for workers tip extra and be understanding. Just had a great morning with my girlfriend walking along the river. Stop in to get a bite to eat. I am standing there waiting to order, and the woman said to me I will be right with you. A man walks in she takes his order. Another lady walks in. She takes her order. Another person walks in. She takes her order. Finally, I said I have an order yet and she said well you're supposed to be standing right here under the sign that says order here So first common courtesy when someone walks in to say good morning I'll be right with you and then take their order not to say that they're not standing in the proper area to order. One girl was just working making sandwiches like a machine never even looked up. To me, it's very rude. Greet people with a smile and treat people with respect. You see me standing there did you think that I came then just to look at the board or do you think that I came in to order food horrible service and they were old enough to know better these were not kids
