The Green Fork

I had the Patience smoothie with banana and stevia. I know how to make good smoothies and this one was not my favorite. It had a texture that was in between a juice and a smoothie… it needed more fruit for consistency. I’m from out of town, and after eating shrimp and grits, other creole dishes, and drinking my fair share of alcohol, I needed something green!
The food in the fridge looked tasty, but also looked fairly pricey. This place is in the Garden District, however. If I had to come back to this shop but order a different smoothie. Also the cashier wasn’t the friendliest; she seemed annoyed by my questions and comments before I ordered.

The selection is fantastic and staff was awesome. Super clean food makes you feel good :)

The service was laughably bad. The woman at the counter was so rude that we almost walked out. It took fifteen minutes to make two simple smoothies and one was so overpoweringly minty that it was not enjoyed.
If you’re going to charge $ 9 for smoothies, hire staff that aren’t appallingly rude and make sure the smoothies are made properly.

The Dreamer is the most delicious smoothie I have ever tried! I can’t wait to go back to use my loyalty card! I am so happy that I followed my gut that one day to try something new, rather than my usual stop at Jamba Juice on my way to work. The girl who helped me was super sweet and didn’t seem to mind that I stood there, gaping at the menu for an awkwardly long time.

OMG this place is OFF DA HOOK GOOD!!! So a friend got us some salads from here for us to try and I was instantly Hooked! And the whole time I was in NOLA I went here everyday! I spent $ 60+ 2 of those days. lol because I bought 2 – 3 of the chickpea salads everytime. I Love Love Love their Hummus salad and their Tumeric juices are Really good! I got the Joy and MIracle both times and tried several of their salads.
Spring Chikpea salad– So Delicious and I was hooked! I like using the cucumber to dip into the chickpeas. So Delicious, filling and super healthy. My body loved this after a hard workout in the hotels gym.
Power house pesto bowl– This was good too, but nothing beats the chikpea IMO.
Miracle juice — Delicous and great way to detox with tumeric.
Joy juice — another great detox drink.
I also tried another salad which was good, but everything took the backseat after my Fave, salad.
This place is fantastic, cute, small and great fresh grab and go food. I wish they had this here in Colorado, but I’m looking for a place like this here.

Nothing I would change. The world needs more Green Forks. Get a lemon poppyseed muffin.

Green Fork — amazing place, as Anthony Bourdain would put it, it restored my faith in humanity. Amazingly delicious and healthy smoothies, freshly, truly freshly squeezed juices, organic premade food that is really delicious — I had the quinoa pot one day and came back for the cole slaw the next day. Both were incredible fresh and flavorful, with flavors derived from the freshness of the ingredients and fresh herbs, such as fresh mint, parsley and cilantro.
Beautiful and Patience smoothies were great.
Fresh carrot-​apple-​beet juice was just the shot of vitamins I required after eating less than healthy food all week. Laughter smoothie was incredibly delicious and filling with nuts for protein.

Great place to have a hydrating smoothie or juice. If I lived in New Orleans I would probably go more than once a week! Had two smoothies made from fresh ingredients, and the turmeric shot bottle. Necessary on a trip full of restaurant visits! An oasis of health!

Best juice and smoothies in New Orleans. This place is for those really into that and not the entire organic restaurant thing. Yes they have healthy snacks and to go meals but the juice and smoothies are the stars. The juice is flat out healthy not a sugar filled replica of smoothie king.
I have family on the West Coast where there is now a juice bar every 10 blocks. The Green Fork can hold its own with the best of them and they make custom juice on the spot not pre bottled

Never disappointed. Always organic, local and fresh ingredients. I recommend this place to all my clients. Besides the goods, my favorite offer they have is that you can recycle your jars! No more plastic:)

Green fork is great! If you are feeling under the weather, maybe have a long day or week ahead of you, stop in an talk to the people behind the counter for suggestions. As a Southern California hippie, juicing and herbs for healing was a part of life. Having come here, I’ve realized the apple was replaced with beer. The Green Fork, brings you back to basics and you will finish your beverage feeling refreshed and detoxified from whatever your days have been throwing at you.
There are a few things that might throw you off when walking into this place. You might find that no one is behind the counter and you might think you are in the store by yourself. Give a friendly holler or ring a bell if they added that. But patience is something you must have going in here because service is slow.

This juice/​health food place is like being in Los Angeles… and I mean prices and all. They make a mean juice and an even meaner smoothie, but the prices are pretty hefty. Don’t let that stop you, as the food is really delicious… just be prepared with your cash.

Great little juice place! While we were in NOLA, I got the pumpkin smoothie, the migraine killer (forget the exact name but something like that), and the Renewal juice. Everything was amazing. Little pricey because they are $ 8, but obviously a lot of fresh veggies and fruits go into each one. And the flavors are super unique and tasty.

An oasis of healthy options! Green Fork rocks — finally a place with solid vegetarian options. I usually spring for the veggie lunchbox and a «Love» juice. So good!

This place features some of the best good-​for-​you food in the city for a price. Their smoothies are wonderful thought at $ 8 a piece you’ve blown through your lunch budget for nothing else. They have great soups, meals, salads all freshly made with a changing menu weekly. If you can afford it, this is the place to eat right.

The Fam and I walked in here on a whim the day after we almost OD’d on beignets, crawfish and gumbo. Needed balance and something fresh. I had the LOL smoothie with ¼th the coffee. Amazing! Also went for a ginger lemon honey shot of some sort and a non traditional/​healthier version of deviled eggs that were great. Nice chit chat with the friendly high vibrating folks who worked there. My wife and daughter were also pleased with their orders. We left feeling happy!

It is expensive, but worth it to me. I can get freshly juiced concoctions without having to worry about cleaning my juicer! Today, I branched out and tried the turkey chili and it was really good. I am treated cordially on every visit and get the opportunity to see other customers being treated just as well.
As a stickler for discounts and perks, I love the fact that they offer a loyalty card.

I love that New Orleans has this juice shop! It’s nice to find that in a sea of fried everything, there is this little oasis of health. Some have criticized the prices but honestly I find them very in line with what you actually get. You are getting a juice that is 100% juice, as in — no fillers like yogurt, milk, etc that you find at the less healthy juice/​smoothy bars (Jamba Juice or Smoothy King). The Metairie location makes juice with a cold press and the Uptown location has a regular juicer. They use very fresh, very healthy ingredients and they taste great! They taste like actual vegetables which is very refreshing.
They also have organic, no preservative, no weird ingredient individual meals and snacks.
I have done the three day juice cleanse they offer and really felt it was beneficial and will do it again in the future. You are given 6 juices to consume throughout the day and you come away three days later feeling energized and beautiful!
I would criticize the customer service a bit, except for a woman named Stephanie who has proven very helpful– but as a few other reviews mention, they could be a bit nicer.
On a side note in regards to their pricing– the only other place in town that I know which offers 100% pure juice is Canal Street Bistro on Canal Street and the juices there are the same price as drinks at The Green Fork. You are getting your bang for your buck.
Eat, drink and be healthy!

Okay, let’s get real. Very few of us need juice in our daily lives. It’s an expensive indulgence and The Green Fork’s offerings are no different. The juice is good; no better or worse than any other juice bar I’ve tried (I like the Valuable and Miracle), and their prices are in line with many others. The main problem I have is with their lack of customer service; I go several times a week because of its convenient location, and not once have I been greeted with a smile, or asked, «How are you doing?» There have been no suggestions about what to try, and worst of all no mention of the Customer Punch Card that they offer! The Punch Card is a big deal when you consider each juice or smoothie is $ 8.
So in all I would sum up the Green Fork with Juice=Good, Customer Service=Bad.

Your dog just ran away oh wait it came right back and it has a bag of money tied to it’s back.
Your landlord just kicked you out oh wait actually you don’t have to pay any rent anymore, ever.
Your lottery ticket is a total loser oh wait no it’s the biggest winner of them all.
Go to The Green Fork and buy some juice and pretty much feel better about everything. This is our favorite place to buy juice in our favorite city in the world.
