I have been wanting to try this place for 2 years. I don't typically come up to this area- but…read moreoccasionally work brings me this way. So for the past 2- I was always coming up on the ONE weekday they were closed. I finally saw that it was open today and went out of my way to try it! It was absolutely worth the wait. I got a strawberry watermelon smoothie and you could tell it was all fresh fruit used and it was so delicious! Definitely top 5 best smoothies I've ever had!!! This reminded me of a smoothie I got in the Dominican Republic- so FRESH & so delicious. The place is small- but ADORABLE! It was IMMACULATE in terms of cleanliness. I didn't see a speck of dust anywhere and the toppings for ice cream- appeared out of a magazine- it looked that picture perfect. They have a little swing against a wall- with a neon sign that says the name of the establishment. It appeared functional- but I didn't want to break it- if it wasn't so I didn't try it. Lol. Service was great! Friendly and personable staff and my smoothie came right out. It took under 4 minutes for me to get this delicious smoothie!! If you're in the area and you enjoy smoothies - I highly recommend trying this spot! My smoothie is amazing!

This is going to be my favorite spot for smoothies. Small, easy access, and healthy fresh fruit.read more

I got the Macarena bowl and the raspberry mint tea and was shocked with how flavorful and ripe the fruit was and how lovingly everything was assembled and packed up. I'm so glad we found this gem!

Nice local ice cream shop…read more Was in the area and hankerin' for a sweet treat. So we stopped by this local ice cream spot for a cone. Girlfriend got a waffle cone, and I opted for the ice cream sandwich with chocolate chips. The ice cream sandwich was good. Cookies were chewy but thin and the ice cream was a little too frozen to have the chocolate chips stick. But the ice cream was okay and the sheer size of the sandwich made the price worthwhile. The ice cream is Giffords, which is okay hard serve. Compared to the local creameries, it's not really great ice cream. But sometimes you don't need that overly sweet ice cream treat, you want a cone of good enough and the price to match. This place meets those requirements, and does a pretty decent job of it. As a roadside ice cream shack, it scratches that itch when you just want something sweet. Go in for the basics, and you won't be disappointed.

So the inevitable happened. I generally have a good experience with Emerald Smoothie. Their prices…read moreare a bit high but usually the smoothies end up tasting great. Few times have I found mysterious metal? bits in my smoothie. Unsure of what it is but it's hard so it's not fruit. They serve their smoothies in styrofoam cups and unfortunately my straw completely went through the entire cup before even one sip. The entire smoothie was now on my lap and in the brisk beginnings of spring time, I can say that I was cold. With the sheer embarrassment of pink goop on my lap, I wasn't gonna walk in for a replacement. Instead I drove home with frozen, sticky laps until I could shower and clean out my car. So--all in all, beware of the styrofoam.

I've been attempting to give this restaurant a fair chance, however every time I order food,…read morewhether it be breakfast or a small bite, it comes out cooked incorrectly, lacking flavor, and the random bits of food on my plate that I haven't ordered lead me to question the restaurants cleanliness. Recently, I purchased an egg and cheese on sourdough - the sourdough was plain white bread, I asked for my eggs cooked over hard, they were runny, and when I politely asked for them to fix my order, they literally took it back and threw it back on the grill, cross-contaminating it with everything else. Safe to say, I will never come back here, I've had enough unfortunate experiences with Dog Lane. **update. Establishment offered me a refund for my meal. I am still upset with the quality of food and service, however I am thankful for the reparations.

We were in the area and needed our coffee fix. Opened up Yelp and did a search. This one came up…read more It's in a plaza with plenty of parking. They also serve pastries and paninis.

I'm an avid…read morecoffee drinker and a, I've never had burnt or sour espresso from them and b, they make everything perfectly EXCEPT the latte. For some reason they have one size and it's huge. We don't need that much milk in a latte! Make it smaller! Charge me the same! That's my only gripe aside from the whole dog thing. They love your pets and have treats for them. I'm just not an animal person but maybe you are and so that's why I'm writing this. Bring your dog here! Sometimes the place is dead quiet with everyone on their laptops but other times it's lively and loud with chatter. Younger crowd usually (it's a college town after all.) I just moved out of town but I'd come here over Silk City anyway. (Their espresso is MUCH better here)
