I low key don't want people to find out about this place! I've been a loyal customer of Carolina smoothie for years. Seeing them not only survive, but thrive through the pandemic has been amazing. Ambiance: Tucked away off East Blvd in a plaza with Fresh Market, Outback and Pet Supplies Plus, this place is a true gem! Service: The owner and young lady who are usually there are awesome. They are always very kind and professional. Service is super quick. The building is clean and organized. The goods: Hands down the BEST smoothies in Charlotte. Filled with fruit and wonderful juices. There are a TON of options. You can customize all the drinks to you liking. There are also add ins, like protein, energy boost, anti oxidant, and immunity. The store also offers looks of natural snacks, protein powder, dried fruit, alkaline water and more. This is a great shop for natural foods and delicious smoothies! read more

Just had a very watery smoothie and when I mentioned it to the owner she just asked if she should add more honey but "the fruit is the fruit" and she can't change it. I just wasted $10 for a smoothie that tasted like ice chips and threw it out. read more

Sadly no wheatgrass juice. The smoothie was pretty good. I was hoping for all organic. Hard to find organic juice or smoothies in Charlotte.

My first visit to Carolina Smoothie was after leaving Freedom Park on a very hot day, so I needed something refreshing and decided to stop in for a smoothie. I ordered the Island Bound and expected it to have a bit more sweetness since I chose from the tropical side of the menu. The customer service was friendly and fast, which I appreciated. As for the smoothie, it tasted like fresh fruit simply blended together and served in very natural and clean tasting. It wasn't giving dessert vibes like I expected, but it definitely seems like a better option for someone looking for a healthier smoothie choice. read more

This is the best smoothie place I have come across in Charlotte. They are tucked away in a plaza and have good menu options. I ordered a berry smoothie and changed some ingredients and added protein to it. I also purchased snacks which came in handy for later, like that they are in small bags. There is no place to sit inside so it is more of a grab and go. The only thing I would change are the styrofoam cups. Other than that I loved my smoothie. read more

I have been coming here for my 16 plus years in Charlotte. I like that it is a local company, not a major chain. This is the best smoothie place in town. They taste better than any other place i have gone to. You can add vitamins or protein, etc. The owner/manager is very nice and it is great to get to see a familiar, friendly face when I go in. Give it a try! read more

A good friend d recommended this smoothie shop to me. It's the first time for me but will quickly become a regular. They're much better than the chain smoothie shops. You taste pure quality in the ingredients and the customer service is one of a kind. I HIGHLY recommend them for a quick healthy smoothie without all the sweet stuff and great pricing. If you're in the area stop by. read more

I wish Carolina Smoothies had locations all over town. Best smoothies around and they're open 7 days/week!

The best smoothies in all of Charlotte. Delicious and reasonably priced! Great staff!

I have been going there for over a decade. The service is always courteous and the smoothies are top notch. They are consistently good.

It was alright. I only went once and it was just alright. At least it wasn't overly priced.

Best smoothies ever! They know how to keep it simple, healthy, and delicious. I've been going here for years and wouldn't change a thing.

If you want the world's best smoothie go to Carolina Smoothies. I went there with my dad and I had the Orange Buzz. It was the best thing I had ever tasted and it tasted like heaven. My brother had the Red Zinger he gulped it down in one bit. It also had other snacks such as Yogurt Covered pretzels, Z Bars ,Clif bars. read more

Picking up some groceries next door at Fresh Market and I was starved but didn't have time for a full meal so drinkable lunch it was ha! Smoothie sounded amazing and it was my first time at Carolina smoothie! The menu can be adapted to your preferences! It comes in normal size for the price range of 5-6 depending on what you pick but you can upgrade to a large for $7.99. They have a store with lots of healthy treats and snacks. The staff is friendly and efficent. Will definitely be back next time I'm this area! read more

The best smoothies in the Charlotte area by far! Clean, fresh ingredients and a friendly environment.

LOVE this local smoothie place. Everything I've had from here tastes fresh and delicious. My favorite smoothie is the Nutty Berry. Prices are reasonable and I love the loyalty card too. This is a hidden gem read more

Everything has remained excellent !! I have been coming here off and on for many years always the best

This is a gem. Hands-down the best smoothie I have ever had. The chains don't even compare!! Do yourself a favor and go there now! Locally owned with great Quality ingredients! read more

I love this local joint to get my smoothie fix. They have a wide variety of smoothies and fresh pressed juices here. The best part about it is that it's not a franchise, just a local shop blending out delicious fruit smoothies. They also have various health conscious items like protein powders, bars, supplements, etc. if that's your jam. For me, it's just a delicious Carolina Sunrise to start my day and I'm a happy camper! Carolina smoothies also does kids sizes so everyone in the family can be healthy! read more

The workers were very nice and I really wanted to like this place. The smoothie I got was just not very thick and it wasn't that tasty

DELICIOUS!! So many options, lots of healthy snacks too, convenient & parking available. Best tip about this place: You can't be in a rush. Not a long wait, but takes a few minutes per smoothie - they do make it fresh infant of you! read more

I live in the Carolinas and love smoothies, so why did it take me four years to try this place? I pass it by all the time but decided to cool down with one of their smoothies this afternoon and it was fantastic. I like how they have their menu in order by flavor and they have interesting and fun concoctions.Wanting something orange like, I got the Carolina Sunrise, which was refreshing and delicious but had to stop slurping it down due to a case of the brain freeze. And they have punch cards which is just straight up awesome. I love that they sell protein powders there including Spiru-tein (my favorite brand due to their funky flavors). Who needs to go to the king of smoothies when you have a local establishment that makes tastier smoothies that cost less? read more

I have been on a smoothie kick lately and Carolina Smoothies is by far the best spot I have found. They have a great variety of smoothies and juices, plus some great snacks. Some of my favorite beef jerky is sold here. However, back to the smoothies, the 'Refresher' is my favorite. Bananas, Apples and Honey (may have one more thing), but it is so refreshing and a perfect mid-day snack. The staff is so sweet and they offer a punch card, which I love. A definite go to spot In Dilworth, especially when I hit Princess Cleaners and Fresh Market in the area. read more

I love this place!!!!!! My all time favorite is the PEACH FIZZ!!!! My friend always branches out, with all kinds of smoothies. She loves it here too, and always has a smile on her face. Chai almond dream - my friend loved it!! read more

I have been meaning to try this places for ages... Tina's Alterations is right next door, and I've found myself there a good bit recently... so today, I needed lunch on the fly and swung in... I had a wonderful protein smoothie full of yummy strawberries and bananas... nice and thick, not sugary AT ALL as they only use a little honey to sweeten it... The service was polite, friendly, and quick. The ingredients are good and good FOR you... I love finding a local gem like this! Can't wait to make this a regular habit! read more

This place is great. I used to be a Smoothie King regular, but now I'm going to work this place into my routine. The drinks here are not really as sweet as other places, but to me that's a good thing. It means they don't add any sugar or artificial stuff to enhance the taste, plus they taste fresher. Very refreshing drinks that taste great. I think the add-ins that they have are more effective too. I added a relaxation boost to mine and I was completely mellowed out for a couple hours. I have to try the rest of the boosts now. read more

The perfect place for a pick-me-up! I came around noon and was in and out within 5 minutes. Most options sounded really yummy and I loved that they had the nutrition info for all their smoothies (since many smoothies can be deceptively unhealthy!). They have a punch card, too, which is really nice. My only complaint would be that the smoothies are a bit expensive, but comparable to chain smoothie places, also they seem to use pretty quality ingredients! read more

I have been on a smoothie kick recently and I stopped by here after reading a few reviews. There were a lot of choices to choose from on their menu which also includes fresh juices made to order. I enjoyed my detox smoothie but I realized I like the yogurt based smoothies better. They are kind of my thing... read more

I used to go to Smoothie King a lot until a friend brought me here and now I'm a convert! I love the buy 10 get 1 free card! The ONLY complaint I have is that sometimes I wait a little too long for a smoothie. The reason varies, somebody comes in that the owner (I think she's the owner?) recognizes so she makes theirs quickly without a verbal exchange, sometimes there are several people in front and since only one person is making the smoothies, you just have to wait, etc etc. I would appreciate a little more "be with you in just a moment" type comments instead of making me stand there and watch other things happening except my order being taken. This is especially important to me when people are at the smoothie counter and the juice counter. If I'm going to wait, that is ok, just acknowledge me and tell me you'll be right there! Anyway, this is just a small complaint that I will deal with because I love the smoothies! HAHA! Overall, this place is wonderful and makes for a great healthy meal/snack on the go. Just don't expect to always be in and out within a couple minutes! lol! Also, love the yogurt pretzels! read more

Carolina Smoothies is my favorite post workout treat in Charlotte. They're conveniently located in Dilworth and have a relatively wide variety of smoothies, energy bars, kombucha, and trail mix to "treat yo self" after a good sweat sesh. While making a smoothie at home is usually the healthiest and most economical route, Carolina Smoothies gives you the option to splurge (I splurged with a peanut butter slam last Saturday) or watch your wasteline with a fiber-filled shot of wheatgrass. Be prepared for a bit of a line and a 5-8 minute wait, it's a small business so they usually only have 2 people making smoothies, running the cash register, etc. Similar to the smoothie chain stores, there is no seating -but Carolina Smoothies is a great place to grab a smoothie to enjoy on the go! read more

I love this place. The smoothies are no non sense deliciousness. They're not loaded with sugar yet still taste amazing. I feel like most smoothie places in charlotte are either super unhealthy or so healthy and chock full of kale that you can't stomach it. But these are the perfect mix! I try a new flavor every time and am never disappointed. read more

The Mrs and I rely on the morning smoothie for our small familial unit. Typically packed with greens and not so much on the sugar. Carolina Smoothies, where they have the appeal for the masses and maybe not SO much on the health side, what they do is great. The availability of smoothies without sugar, fresh juices, replacements for any sort of dairy, and other healthy additives is a huge plus for this joint. If you're in the mood for a simple fruit smoothie and not a bunch of other junk added in, they will accommodate. My recent favorite is the Key Lime Cooler sans yogurt, extra banana, no agave or sugar added. Tart and refreshing. Great for a morning meal or post-workout. The prices vary and the sizes are absurd. You're not going to find a ridiculous 465oz smoothie here, which I like. Also, they have tons of snack foods to choose from -- pretzels, nuts, bars, mixes, etc. I really like the community board in the back, too. Lots of local info on races, activities, etc. I'm a fan! Looking forward to becoming a more reliable regular. Viva Dilworth. read more

Their fruit smoothies are frozen fruit and don't taste so good to me. I will say their peanut butter slam(pb, banana, and frozen vanilla yogurt) is the best damn thing in town. I probably have about 20 of these a year and should drop it off at a lab to have it tested for crack rock inside because its so addicting! They also have a buy 10 get one free card. read more

Don't go to the chains when you can support a local business with great ingredients. In addition to smoothies you can get every type of granola or protein bar out there. Plus a selection of nuts and dried fruit. Unsure of what smoothie to get check out the top 7 list above the register. This place is closed only 2 days a year and the owner is in every day but those two. I love the Orange Bliss. You can substitute orange sherbet for frozen yogurt if you like. read more
