Jamba Juice

Location is key but the smoothies are watered down! I would actually give them no stars but they tried to re make my smoothie. Like their name implies, Jamba Juice, it really is juice now.

Overall good experience. I come here quite often for a smoothie fix. The smoothies are pretty decent and there are plenty of deals floating around if you check their website.

I wasn’t really an avid Jamba Juice visitor prior to frequenting this location. But the convenience of the being right in my work building and the ability to grab a quick smoothie without venturing outside in the frigid weather makes me visit this place around 2 – 3 times a week.
The employees I have encountered here are always friendly and efficient with my time, and even suggest coupons and deals online for me to look up when I visit. I have tried a variety of different flavors, but my standard go-​to is the Strawberries Wild. I’ve also had the flat bread here due to adventure and laziness and it was pretty bad. However, it is a good deal with the smoothie if you need a quick bite.
Overall, they deliver a pretty consistent smoothie with pretty decent customer service. Currently, the volume is pretty low (since it is in the dead of winter), but I hope the quality will last even during the busier times.

Restaurant Review
Wow Robrt S review is spot on. Can the employees they hire be any worse? The cashier barely made eye contact as I placed my order let alone acknowledge my presence. The mango smoothie I had was likely the worst. First it did not taste like mango at all, it had a strong orange juice flavor. Second it was like eating fruit flavored ice without any sweetness. I realize that fruits are not in season right now, but they must have forgot to put something in the drink because it had no sweetness at all. Note to self chose a different location. This is a shame because it is in prime location at the base of John Hancock along the Mag mile.
Pro– healthy
Con– terrible customer service/​drink making ability
Hidden deal–
1. Keep your eyes peeled for groupon deals
2. Sign up for the email club to get coupons like BOGO or 2 dollar for 16 oz smoothie

A Healthy Way to Start Any Day
When I have the time, a morning stop at Jamba Juice is on my agenda. Nothing starts a day better than a big glass of freshly squeezed juice, liquid sunshine as my mom used to call it, and Jamba does it right. The oranges are always sweet, cold and fresh. Besides the orange juice, Jamba’s lemonade provides a cool, refreshing treat on a hot, summer day. In addition, the Hancock location offers a great outdoor sitting area to soak up some of the non-​liquid sunshine. The only «bad» part is their somewhat limited menu. Rather than a full-​fledged juice bar like Orange, the choices are rather limited. Nonetheless, Jamba offers cold, healthy drinks that provide a nice lift — morning, noon or night.

Always a refreshing smoothie stop. Great healthy substitute for breakfast or lunch. I love the add-ins…whey protein… weight loss… antioxidants…and much much more! Always fresh and tasty!

Fruits, veggies and other extra cash thrown into a blender puréed to death and overcharged for.

Excuse me.
Excuse ME.
EXCUSE ME.
DO I NEED TO YELL TO GIVE YOU MY ORDER?
Yeah. I guess I did.
The absolute worst customer service I’ve experienced in the past couple of years from any fast food restaurant. If it wasn’t the vile gangsta rap music blaring loud enough to annoy anyone who wanted to sit inside the restaurant, it was the hat-​to-​the-​side clown working the register who seemed like he had better things to do. The children in the back dancing and carrying on didn’t make me feel like waiting around to order.
I had better things to do, so I went next door to the European pastry place and gave them my business.

Lazy staff. Less talking and more working. There is one bad manager there that looks like she hates her life and her job. She was very rude when I asked her why my drink was not a full cup. She grabbed it from me and threw it in the garbage then told the guy to remake it and add more ice. Bare in mind I ordered a smoothie so she just instructed the guy making drinks to dilute my drink. Great job Jamba Juice. That’s why your stock is trading at $ 2.

I have to be completely honest … if my smoothie and California Flat Bread didn’t taste so delicious, I would have made this into a one star rating.
This place has the absolute worst customer service I have ever experienced. No greeting hello, no suggestions, no smile, just complete rudeness, as if she didn’t want to be there at all. Then while I was waiting, she did have a «Welcome to Jamba Juice, how may I help you» moment, but as she was saying it, she was rolling her eyes and rotating her head, not even looking at the customer that was about to drop more than $ 20 for a meal! I just don’t get it these days!
Also, I was already finished with my smoothie by the time the flat bread was ready. I know that I won’t be coming back. Sad to say.

I am a regular at this particular Jamba Juice. It’s nice that Jesse and Ninaja (I know I probably butchered the spelling of her name, oops!) knows me by name, but sometimes it gets a little embarrassing too, especially if I stop by with friends from out of town. Yep, that’s how often I come here.
I go to Jamba Juice when I want a pick-​me-​up, when I want peace and quiet to work on homework, when I want to see the sunlight on cold wintery days. I like to sit by the window after days and weeks of not being able to see the sun from the 34^th or 44^th floor. If it’s too sunny though, I get hot easily so I like to sit closer to the door where I can still see the sunlight but not have it beam down on me. I say that I come here for peace and quiet, but it’s almost never as peaceful and quiet as I’d like. The staff likes to play their music really loud. It’s nice when all I want to do is homework, but it’s a little annoying when I receive a phone call and I can’t hear what the other person is saying to me.
I like to order the Apple Cinnamon Cheer around the holidays. To me, it tastes like a cold apple pie (without crust). Usually the crust is the best part of a pie for me, but this smoothie makes me smile from cheek to cheek.
If I happen to stop by in the morning, I enjoy ordering the Berry Topper. It tastes like my favorite Vibrant Blueberries (I think this has been discontinued) only with granola and fresh bananas! The other topper I like is the Peach Mango Topper. I also like their oatmeal stuff, and in fact, I prefer ordering the oatmeal items because it actually taste like food, but I like granola and bananas… Hmm, what a hard decision!
I also love their freshly squeezed orange juice. I’m a big fan of pulp. I hate that most brands nowadays advertise their orange juice as pulp-​free. How do you know that it’s actually an orange without the pulp!!!
I’m not a fan of their food items though. I ordered a salad here once. Never again. I ordered some of their pastry items before. Never the same one, and never again. I even ordered one of their pizza-​like items. Um, never again. I wanted so badly to like each of these items, but they just weren’t very good. Go for the juices.

This jamba makes quality drinks, rarely messes up orders. I’ve been to a few (mostly airports) that are so bad. Flavors always spot on. Workers are consistently peppy and helpful.
The major downside is the crowd which this jamba doesnt handle well. I mean, its in the Hancock so it should be used to the turnover, but it usually takes me at least 30 min between getting there, ordering, and waiting for my drink.

This Jamba Juice is conveniently located at the base of the Hancock Tower. However, I came here during the fall/​winter season and these smoothies may not be as popular when it is freezing outside. Anyhow, I still managed to get my regular Banana Berry smoothie. The staff here are pretty friendly. It is just unfortunate that when it gets cold, it may not be the most popular spot. However, it is popular for me since I don’t have to wait very long for a good smoothie.

My poor long-​suffering boss knows I’m a complete pain in the … Taking me out somewhere for lunch? Yeah. That’s fun. I really avoid red meat. No wheat, corn, honey.
Lunch with me is more like exploratory surgery. So, yesterday as we’re walking along the Miracle Mile he darts into the italian place and seeing exactly nothing for me, suggests Jamba Juice. I’d never been to one before and was I ever not enthusiastic!
See, many of these juice places are just junk. High sugar or worse — corn syrup (corn sugar!, oh please). It’s not unusual to find wheat gluten in a variety of forms used in commercial beverages and frequently, it’s added to fruits and vegetables as a preservative.
It’s no wonder I went from a 38 waist to a 28 waist. After my usual thorough grilling of the very nice associate who actually not only knew what I was talking about — didn’t blow the exam. She was helpful, encouraging and patient.
Bought a juice smoothie and liked it well enough that I had another today. Both were effectively meal replacements since they can be 400 calories for the «original» size uh huh.
Everyone at this location has been very pleasant, and considering it’s a tourist zone with cameras going off. I mean what? Who takes pictures of stores? I’d by crabby as hell… o. But they just sort of joke along with you.
Nice people, good beverages, clean location: under $ 5 for a 400 calorie meal in a cup that fills me up without filling me out.

I’ve lived in Seattle for 4 years, so I had Jamba Juice around all the time. I am usually not the biggest fan; I mean the drinks are good, but I don’t really have cravings like some of my friends do. SO, when I visited with friends from DC I decided to try one of their hot drinks and went for the chocolate soy chai. Bad idea. I didn’t like it at all. However, all my friends’ smoothies were good and the staff was nice.
Hope that helps :)

I have to admit that I only get smoothies once in a blue moon, but I’ve suddenly become a fan of their morning banana oatmeal… especially on Wednesdays when it’s only $ 2!
The staff here is very friendly and they really help start the day off on a good note.

I’ve never been a fan of over priced fads like FroYo, Wheat grass, and all that junk.
I was on my way to an appointment last week in the building down the street and was running a bit early, so I decided to stop at the nearest place that had a cold drink (it was a rare 95 degree day). I walked into Jamba and ordered a small Green Tea Blast. The guy at the counter took my order with a smile, and gave me the total. To which I replied HOLY SHIT! I don’t have my wallet! You don’t understand! I don’t live in the loop, and I just parked my car in a $ 30 garage! This is VERY bad.
I apologized and walked away from the counter to call my husband. Obviously, not gettting my Jamba was the least of my worries at this moment. I didn’t have my wallet, and I was nearly in tears. As I was walking out of the store I heard my name being called (you gibe them your name when you order). I turned around and the staff was all smiles. They gave me a LARGE (no less!) Green Tea Blast GRATIS, and just the generosity and the smiles that they gave me really brightened my day.
If you’re wondering, it all turned out okay, and I got my car out of the garage with some money that was brought to me, but the real heroes of this story are the employees of this Jamba. They saw that someone was about to have a terrible day, and they did what little part that they could to make it a little brighter.
Thank you Jamba Juice.
BTW, I now LOVE the green tea blast, and I’ll be back for more!

I am a big fan of Jamba Juice in general, but just not this one. The staff is rude and slow. The place stinks of old fruit and the service just isn’t as nice!
And apparently they have been told not to remind people about the free booster, as a cost-​saving measure!

Jamba Juice: what to say about you. Your convenient, refreshing on a hot summer day and affordable. Sure your busy, especially with all of the tourists like myself, making customers wait a good 10 minutes for their brain-​freeze inducing orders but really, isn’t it part of the whole experience?
I love this place, really. Their drink selection is amazing and one of the best things you can have on a nice summer day to keep yourself refreshed. You are convenient and very accessible, in the heart of the city, at least for this location.
What more could anyone ask for?

Who doesn’t love Jamba Juice? This particular location is always busy… especially on hot and sunny Saturday afternoons! But we needed are fruit fix, so came in for a treat.
Staff moves quickly, but we still had to wait about 10 minutes for our drink. We got a ginormous fruit concoction… have no idea what was in it, but it was good. I usually go with the Matcha blast or a small carrot juice.
PS… check out the panini place next door. YUM.
