3 ROOTS

Honestly, not worth it.
Went in on a whim to get a juice… Well… Their juices are pre-​pressed in the glass fridge. So the «fresh-​pressed» juice you wanted to get was pressed… Some other time. In my case, I was told the juice was pressed the night before. Kind of a let down. Anyway… $ 8 – 10 for a 16 oz. does not kill the bank, but the bottle wasn’t something to write home about either.
Menu wise. No substitutions or add-​ons allowed to the smoothies. You can only take out ingredients. No fresh beets either. Only beet powder. Another let down.
Fruit smoothies — the significant other ordered a fruit smoothie which was made out of refrigerated juices and freshly BLENDED. C’mon, really?!
All in all … $ 31 for 2 juices and a smoothie. The girl behind the counter was short and quite unhelpful. Maybe there should be a «no substitutions» sign, but I might have missed it.
There are a lot more interesting places in Brooklyn for fresh juice. Won’t be visiting this one again.

I ordered a smoothie, the Mighty Matcha:
Banana, Cucumber, Apple, Matcha, Chlorella, Palm Sugar, Coconut Oil, Tulsi.
The smoothie had a great taste. Will definitely go back!
I also had a special tea, it was lavender and lemon. Not at all worth the price. Stick with the smoothies.

When 3 Roots first opened, I visited and ordered a carrot juice. The woman behind the counter laughed and said «We don’t do that here.» I haven’t given them a second chance yet.

Really tasty juices and smoothies. Everything always tastes so fresh. Looking forward to trying a soup or salad for lunch. My favorites are the juices with tumeric in them or the ones with grapefruit. So yummy. Staff is always friendly and helpful when I’m unsure of what I feel like ordering.

I wholeheartedly love this place.
firstly, they made over the look, and now it feels like your in a artistic/​bohemian friends living room. Me gusta. They also have a couple booklets that explain to you the health benefits of various drinks and ingredients.
Their smoothies are made with funky & fresh ingredients– i.e. durian, tulsi, rosewater & himalayan salts (amongst your typical offerings). You just know that every smoothie was really labored over to get the ingredients and proportions perfect.
By far my favorite is the Nutty King. holy hell that is good. i honestly feel like whenever i go there and order that, I’m being kind to myself.
When i was living in the neighborhood I used to go every weekend to set the tone right for the day. As always, can’t wait to go back!

Just got their blueberry smothie and a porridge, both were amazing. The smothie was really creamy with their own almond butter and the porridge was topped with dates and coconut flakes. Wish it had coffee tho, if it’s a health issue thing they don’t want to promote, they could make a spiced cardamon or «healthier» kind of coffee. Going back for more definitely!

Complex ingredients, refined, delicious. –2 stars for silly pricing, uncomfortable interior.

Finally had the chance to try a smoothie at 3 Roots this past week and I loved it!
I walked in at around 9:30 am on Thursday, and was surprised to find the place pretty empty. Décor is very serene and reminds me of a yoga studio. Definitely puts you in the smoothie-​lovin’ mood.
I tried the ‘Horny Monk’ which is a delicious blend of banana, apple, almond butter, cacao, coconut Oil and tulsi. It was so good! Creamy, not too sweet (until I hit the bottom 10%, where a bunch of almond butter had settled). My only negative feedback? $ 10 for a pretty average-​sized smoothie seems like overkill, even if it did taste amazing.
I could front and say that 3 ROOTS is too expensive for me, but ever since that first sip of Horny Monk, I knew that I’d be going back again and again.

I’ve been going to 3roots since they opened, and I loved everything that I ever got there, until today. I think I’ve tried 90% of everything on their menu. After me and my fiancé spending literally hundreds of dollars here, I complained for the first time ever about one of their new smoothies, it was just thin liquid and not any ice. Immediately instead of offering to fix or suggest a solution (think it was the owner who served me) was defensive and told me that I should take note that because of the ingredients that it would not be thick. I’m hoping that this is just a misunderstanding, as I enjoy 3roots very much. I feel that other small businesses that I frequent appreciate a little constructive criticism, and I feel that I was treated unfairly. In fact, last time I complained about anything was at my favorite coffee shop, and they told me days later that they investigated and realized that their grind was way off and THANKED ME. Would like to add that I think the staff is excellent and I enjoy this addition to the neighborhood. I was only trying to initiate a conversation about a product that I thought was lackluster, and would have been receptive to quick fixes. When put on the spot, what do I want to do? I want to get out of there as quickly as possible…

Not like other health places !!!
Here you get actual answers about their products and not the whole «ummmm there’s this and that but you can read more about it here on the paper or sign or board»
They know what they are doing here and know what they are giving you!!!
Lots of owners from other juice spot are coming here and taking ideas from 3roots and selling it off as their own.
Some of my friend have claimed that the juices aren’t fresh but it’s funny because I see them cold pressing juices and bottling right now. Not fresh? LIES!!!
Don’t trust the bad reviews from these trust fund hipsters. This place is worth the trip from any where.

Amazing coconut water, ask for a shot of e3 live to cure those hangover times ;). Smoothies are not your typical day to day mc Donald ones but totally awesome. Try the hypnotize! Little on the expensive side but totally worth the buck.

just ok. their smoothies are over-​thought and not the tastiest I’ve had. but the main issue is their attitude. don’t try to impress me with it as I’ll top your attitude.
we ended up buying our own vitamix and make the best smoothies in the world and it costs us pennies)

They only make super eccentric smoothies here.
I think the owner may be addicted to an herb called tulsi because it is added to everything as an extract, so expect that. Also, it will be hard to find a smoothie there that doesn’t have durian (jackfruit) in it. For those of you not in the know durian has a very unique ‘rot’ aroma that you may find horribly disgusting, but it is very sweet and you may like the flavor of it.
The only thing on the menu that I can stand to drink is the one with peanut butter in it, but I’ve had it twice and that’s enough. I’ve tried a few of the others but at 10 dollars a pop, it’ doesn’t really do it for me.

Finally had a chance to stop in this morning on my way back from rooftop yoga at goodyoga. Loved 3 Roots! I had the Green Dream, which was not too sweet and really refreshing. The staff was helpful and one young lady let me try this quinoa/​mung bean curried thing they make for breakfast and lunch which was very tasty. Would be great on a cold day, but not today. I definitely want to try more — would like to see a calorie count on the smoothies, but maybe that would ruin it. :-)

I live around the corner and want to love the place more than I do. I was excited for a juice bar in the neighborhood, but I feel like the service here is inefficient and unwelcoming, even though the juices are good.
If you’re in the mood for a tasty, expensive smoothie slowly and begrudgingly prepared by a dead behind the eyes girl who is wearing a half shirt with no bra, then this is the place to go. I’m not a germaphobe or a prude, but I prefer the people who prepare my food to be fully clothed.
Cash only. They also don’t hose down the side walk, and left a spilled smoothie there for several days, attracting lots of nasty flies.

Have gone to 3 Roots a few times now and I really love it. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable and they have some seriously incredible juices, smoothies, and shots. If I don’t know what to go for, they are always very helpful making suggestions.
Surprisingly, the salads they have are also really good too. The Volcano Salad (I think that’s what it’s called) was great!
2 things to note:
— CASH ONLY
— The prices are a little high, but I consider them to be completely justified.
I highly recommend this place if you’re looking to stay healthy or just looking for a tasty treat.

I was very excited to hear a juice bar opened nearby. Unfortunately no juices were on the menu only $ 10 – 12 smoothies and «shots». Not a lot of product in this place, and it was pretty slow-​mo. I was hoping for a down and dirty east village type juice bar.
Its possible this place is too boutique for me.

Cool chicks making cool juice. Soups are so good, too.

Awesome smoothies, nice people, and loud electronica.
What more could you ask for?

A fantastic addition to Greenpoint. Simple and clean shop layout with interesting, fresh, healthy, and delicious concoctions!
