Sometimes the TANK franchise can be a bit hit and miss. This one however was pleasantly surprising. The lines were busy for E.O.D, but they managed to make my salad in a timely fashion. Located in the Westfield mall at the bottom of Queen Street, they are in prime placement for commuters traffic from Britomart Transport Station and also CBD workers looking for a healthier option. Ingredients looked fresh and the workstations were clean which is always a plus at any good outlet. Staff were well presented, but the front staff could be a little better educated on the menu. There is limited seating if you’re planning to eat in outside the establishment but you can go upstairs and sit in the main mall food court which has ample amounts of seating even during busy periods. Overall a surprisingly good visit, my salad was tasty with generous meat portions and a good amount of dressing. Would visit again !

Tank is really good. Like, really good. This particular one is right in my firing line during the work lunch hour and has saved me many a guilty afternoon after choosing this over some other delicious, but bad for me, options. With the weather being like it has, one of the Tank juices, smoothies or salads has been the perfect snack or lunch option. Their list of options is pretty extensive and you can even add little shots designed to help with particular things like liver cleansing, energy and flu fighting. I usually get a juice, but recently have been trying the salads, which you can also have in a wrap, and they are delicious. It may look like the small size option will be too small for you, but they do pack it in there– I would go for the medium because the price for all the small sizes of things is pretty expensive. The staff are really efficient and the wait is never long, even during the lunch hour when it can be super busy. Due to the price, I can’t have it everyday, but whenever I do I am left feeling fresh and happy that I’ve done something good for my body.

Who doesn’t like juice? It’s good for you, it tastes good… it just generally all round is good. It’s an alternative to a sugary coke or a tasteless water, and Tank Juice Bar serves up some great ones. They offer a wide variety of juices, smoothies and salad, all of which seem almost a bit too healthy. If drinking some extremely fresh juice straight from the fruit isn’t healthy enough for you, you can chuck in extra shots that will give you energy, fight sickness, help you bulk up or cut depending on how you feel about your body. Tank does it all. The only qualm I have is that it isn’t cheap — but I guess being healthy comes at a price.

I love Tank. It’s just what the doctor ordered on a blazing hot Auckland day. Tank serves up a range of different fruity concoctions to fill an extensive menu of juices and smoothies. You can even supplement your drink with ‘shots’ — these can assist with weightloss, fighting the flu and adding protein. They do salads there too, although I have never tried one myself. I LOVE Tank Vitality. In fact, the one time I strayed from that flavour, I regretted it badly. This isn’t because the other flavour was bad. It’s simply because Vitality is so good. There’s just something about that combination of strawberry, orange and apple that makes my mouth so very very happy. Maybe I just love the Vitality too much. The bad thing about Tank is its price. For example the Mini-tank(which is very mini) is $ 5. This makes Tank very much a ‘sometimes food’.
