Shaka Pressed Juice

Quick service, overall a good experience

After a 30-​mile bicycle ride on Eastern Sunday, all I wanted was an Acai bowl, but many shops that makes Acai bowls were closed, except Shaka Juice! What a savior, just what I needed, a nice fresh vanilla almond milk juice, and a bag of homemade granola trail mix with chocolate. Such an nice energy refill snack.
All the juice are prepackaged, so you get your order Fast!
Also, Big Thanks for Unilocal 10% discount when you check in at Shaka!
We sat on the bench outside, and it was pleasant to watch people walk by while enjoying our healthy and delicious snack and cold pressed juices/​vegan milk!

Delicious juice! Love this juice bar because it’s quick and easy to pick up healthy delicious juice on the run! Lots of options to choose from so you’ll want to come back and try more juices! Thanks ladies for the great customer service today! I will be back again soon :)

Really a very nice experience, she recommended the perfect juice to get me to the top of the Diamondhead crater

If I ever see or hear anyone complaining about the price of good cold pressed fresh juice then I know they have not been very sick and tried nature to heal. The cost of producing these bottles of nature is not cheap, and the benefits they bring are priceless.
I was at death’s door and did a strict juice cleanse for a few weeks/​months and was able to completely resolve all signs of disease in 12 weeks. I know I’m not everyone but that’s still pretty impressive stats to get you guys to at least consider trying without freaking out about the price. Some things (being alive) are just worth the money.
If you’re just a regular person with no illness this is also something to do just to stay that way, but if there’s anyone out there that doesn’t feel so well or has a chronic disease, I highly recommend drinking at least one of Shaka Pressed Juice’s green drinks/​day. Add a shot w/​Turmeric too.
I’m quite certain everything we need to heal ourselves comes from Earth.
Instead of asking why is food that’s good for you so expensive, you should ask why all the processed and fast food is so cheap.

I always wanted to do a juice cleanse but I had no idea what it entailed. After thorough research of different juice spots, I found Shaka Pressed Juice! I was very excited to find this cleanse because it came with FOOD! A salad a day but this made the cleanse seem much more doable. Plus the price point was right. I called and inquired about the cleanse and the girl on the other end was so nice and open to answering all of my juicing questions. I quickly put in my order for a 3 day cleanse to start in two days.
When I picked up my cleanse I did not know what to expect. I also received 10% off for checking in on Unilocal!It was explained to me that I will be given 2 days worth of juice and salad. Then, I was to return to pick up the last day so that all the juice and the salad would be fresh. The bottles were numbered so that i knew exactly what juice to drink and in what order. I pretty much spaced it out so that I would have something to drink every 2 hours or so.
Here is the menu:
1. Morning Elixir– this was like watered down chili pepper water.
2. Green Dream– I could taste the cilantro and celery in this one.
3. Purple Kush– most difficult to drink thick and i don’t like beets
4. The Roots– my fave thank goodness for pineapple.
5. Green Detoxer– The ginger made it bearable.
6. One of our healthy Salad with Alkaline Water– this was so delish after a day of juice.
Overall, I did not see results from the juice cleanse but some toxins sure did «come out». I did feel good/​healthy but most importantly I was proud of my accomplishment of completing the cleanse!

Soooo Ono!!! Best almond milk ever tasted! Next: Shaka Greens!

Way to go Shaka juice! Kelsea and I just completed our 2^nd cleanse in 3 months and feel amazing!!! The owners and all the staff are so friendly! We are extremely happy to have you so close to our house! We are planning on our third in February. Thanks Shaka Juice!

A few times a year I do a wellness and detox cleanse, to clean myself out and to reset my system. This time around, I decided to give Shaka Pressed a try, They offer two options for their wellness juice cleanse: Option 1 is 6 juices a day and option 2 is 5 juices a day plus a Alkaline Water and salad for dinner. I decided to go hardcore with option 1 and have the all-​juice diet and go for the 3 day cleanse. You can do either a 1, 3, or 5 day cleanse.
All the juices are cold pressed, raw, organic and they try to use locally sourced produce whenever possible. A nice benefit of the cold pressed juices, besides the fact that you get the max amount of nutrients out of the ingredients, is that you don’t have to pickup your juices daily. In other non-​cold pressed juice cleanses that I’ve done, I would have to go every day to the store to get my next supply which can be a hassle during the week.
The staff is friendly and helpful as they were able to sub out one of my juices because I have an allergy to one of the ingredients.
Parking can be a pain at this location, but if you hunt around the neighborhood, you’ll find relatively close street parking.
I’ve been very satisfied with my juice cleanse and enjoyed a few of the juices on the menu. My favorites are the Vainilla Milk: a blend of almonds, alkaline water, dates, and vanilla and Apple Ginjah (not on the normal juice menu for cleanse). I’ll be back not only for future juice cleanses, but to enjoy the juices on a regular basis and to try some of their salads.

I like to torture myself… so I did a five day juice cleanse earlier this year. It was great! I saw that remnants of it working from day 2! So, I’m back for more… this time, a three day cleanse. But whatever your needs are they have it! Juice cleansing or not, worth checking out!

Great juice cleanse. I came here when they first opened and was really happy with the juices. Tried it again for a post-​Thanksgiving cleanse. Wasn’t as happy. Not sure why. Maybe I got some juices that were on their last day, so not as fresh.
For Black Friday they offered 10−20% off juices and cleanses. I got my post-​Turkey Day cleanse for about $ 125. Great price!

I ventured in here on a scorching hot Saturday a week or two ago. I was pleased by the décor and homegrown operation they had going on, as there was an employee labeling bottles behind the counter. The juice options were unique and you can sample all of them if you wish, but some of the combinations were just a little too unusual for me. They also didn’t taste as fantastic as I hoped they would. I love the concept and the effort is definitely there, but the flavors just didn’t click with me. I know others will probably enjoy and possibly even fall in love with this place, but I guess it’s just not for me.

I love cold-​pressed juices! This spot on Monsarrat Ave is cute lil juice spot that offers cold-​pressed juices and juice cleanse packages. I loved their «Shaka Greens» which consisted of Watercress, celery, Mizuna, Kale, Bok Choi, Pineapple, Cucumber and Lemon. I love to drink my greens sometimes and get the nutrients that I need! I love drinking non-​store bought juices with all that added sugar and preservatives.

Dear Shaka Pressed Juice,
When I am about to spend $ 10 a pop on freshly pressed juice, I want my juice to come from a health haven.
I want to feel more vibrant just by walking into your doors.
I want to feel like I am undoing the cheeseburgers and pizzas and ice cream cones and Spanish rolls just by eyeing up your menu.
I want to see juicers in front of my eyeballs, and fresh ingredients in front of the same eyeballs.
I want my servers looking like they could easily run to the end of the block, and not like they are just engaging in a fad to turn a buck.
CONGRATULATIONS.
You are my new juice love.
Yayyyy. Partayyyyyyy.
And it’s not just because you’re new and shiny and have a muscle-​y, adorable Prince Charming tossing out smiles like they haven’t broken hearts.
It’s because you present well, and then you follow through. Like a tennis player. Or golfer. Or shot put, um, shot put-​er.
We came in on a whim and decided to take you up on your one-​day juice cleanse.
But for two days.
Your juices were awesome! And even though detox made me feel like I was dying a slow and arduous death, I scraped through my day dreaming about finally getting to the vanilla myllk and it was all that I thought it would be.
My kids kept begging to have sips of particular juices and I would have to shoo them weakly away and mutter «No, mommy NEEDS all the juice. Because she is on the verge of non-​existence.»
My husband, on the other hand, had a GREAT time and seemed to be suffering very little. He even appeared rather vibrant, which was a little infuriating since I couldn’t summon the energy to get a glass of water. But hey, I was raised on McDonalds and he wasn’t so… yes.
Incidentally, we had plans to purchase our cleanse from another juicery, but when we got there the fellow said that they only juiced Monday through Friday. We were not super enthused about purchasing juice (it was Saturday) that was already at least a day old.
So when we popped into your doors and you said you could do the one-​day cleanse on the spot AND threw together a juice that wasn’t already in your case we were… impressed.
We love you.
See you soon.
Love,
Angela

What a refreshing new business!
The ginger/​lemon juice was amazing in the morning and charged me right up.
Juri and Keegan are awesome people, this business is legit.

Shaka is my new favorite spot! I am a yoga teacher, and nothing feels as good as downing some fresh cold pressed juice after teaching or practicing! Especially when you know they use all LOCAL AND ORGANIC produce! Shoots! I always recommend this establishment to my students. Not to mention their staff is so kind and helpful. They make great suggestions and were happy to explain the cold pressing process in depth for me. Although these juices average at $ 8 – 9, the price is worth it. How many places can serve you fresh, local, organic food that has been prepared with love? After watching their team use the press, I realized how strenuous the juicing process is. It gave me a new appreciation for their product, and I don’t second guess the price at all! Check out Shaka if you want some delicious juice and good vibes!

I drive up and down Monserrat almost daily, and saw that juice box closed a few months ago. In its space now sits Shaka and it’s pretty much the same concept – serving fresh juice for almost $ 10 per bottle.
If you’re lucky enough to find street parking, the little store is hard to miss with its baby blue and orange painted walls and door. There isn’t much space inside the store, so be prepared to get your juice and enjoy it elsewhere.
Like another reviewer mentioned, I wasn’t blown away by the creativity of the juice recipes… Beet and pineapple, pineapple and orange, carrot and ginger… For the amount these babies cost, I would have expected more variety in each recipe. And there it is. The cost. For $ 9 – 10 per bottle, this place is expensive. I can go to whole foods about a mile away and get the same combinations for $ 5 per bottle:/
The service was great. There were about 5 workers when I walked in, and one girl greeted me, offered suggestions and rang me up.
Overall, this juicery was just A-​OK in my book. I make my own juices at home when I have time… its way more affordable and I can get creative with what fruits and vegetables I use. Parking is a hassle here and the store itself is small and hot. Unfortunately, I don’t think I’ll be back.

Thanks, Shaka Pressed Juice, for offering free yoga during your opening week (June 22 – 26)! Yoga + Juice = Happiness :)
We got to sample a few different juices, all of which were tasty! My fave was the Apple Ginjah, really ginger-​y but still sweet from the apple. I also enjoyed the Shaka Greens (not too green tasting), Purple Kush, the Vanilla Mylk (a bit like watered down almond milk), and the HorShaka (yum!).
Thumbs up to the friendly and knowledgeable staff! Highly encourage anyone who’s interested in trying cold pressed juice to check out Shaka — support local!

Soft opening… grand opening is June 22. So will update review if I happen to come here after that.

Love Leahi! Love Monsarrat! Cute stores and restaurants. Most require street parking so BOLO. This place is located near South Shore Grill.
STORE: 3-​stars
Tiny and hot. There are few barstools right after you open the door — so if you sit there, you might be whacked in the back by the door. If more than two customers are in the shop, it gets a little tight! There is a bench outside, where it is cooler and you won’t get claustrophobic.
SERVICE: 5-​stars
Customer service is fantastic. They let me sample every juice that we had questions on. I am a big fan of this especially because juice is super expensive! They offer 1, 3, 5-​day juice cleanse package, however, because it is still a soft oepning, they didn’t have any printed materials and the information they were telling me was a bit confusing.
Them: you can eat a salad
Me: so a salad a day comes with the cleanse package
Them: well, if you buy the food/​salad option
PRODUCT: 3-​Stars
Cold pressed juice… All the rage and craze nowadays. One sample I was given was warm. He said they just made it so if I bought it they could give me ice. As I mentioned before, they let me sample many. I am grateful for that because these juices are NOT cheap. These bad boys run $ 8-​$ 10 on the average. I just was not blown away by any of the blends/​recipes. I really like Instapressed and Jugo Life Juicery juices.
Definitely try it for yourself.

New juice spot in town! Cold pressed juices, salads and snacks to go. Check it out people!
Had the roots and the apple ginger. Both were super tasty! Still in the soft opening stages so keep an eye out and check back for hours and products.
