Love their smoothies and food but the girls are so rude. First time I thought it was just a bad day. We all have them. Second time I was too afraid to ask a question about a food item. She was rude. Cashier took money. Didn’t sag one word. I won’t go back

I love tropical smoothie and recommend it all the time!! However this location has awful customer service. This was my second time at this location (first time was bad too but wanted to give the benefit of the doubt).

I was working in the area and dropped by the cafe multiple times. Went back 4-5 times to get water, and to use the restroom and eat. Customer care was really great. Food was good. Solid place

I always order through the app. My order is usually ready when I get there and it’s correct. I only order smoothies so I can’t speak on the food.

These smoothies are addicting!!! I am a regular and the Bahama Mama is my all time favorite. Definitely can see them working very hard during rush. It is rather strange for a tip question in the drive-thru, but my experiences are still worth the 5.

Easy ordering online and pick up at the drive thru window. Love the smoothies with 1/2 sugar!

Went to the drive-through a couple times and the customer service sucks. Very poor manners. They just don’t speak. I say “thank you” and they just stare at me like I have 3 heads.

I made sure I looked up the hours before traveling 20 minutes to make sure they were open. I got there at 8:40 pm and tried to order a salad and they said the manager makes us stop serving food at 8:45 pm…. but really it’s 8:40 since I was there at 8:40!! Disappointing service.
