Visited Blend for the first time with a friend, excited to find a local place that could…read moreaccommodate my raw vegan lifestyle. My first impression was wonderful..the little restaurant was clean, charming, and the outdoor seating was perfect for a warm day. Sadly...that positive impression quickly changed due to the customer service we received. We were greeted by an employee whose receipt identified her as Ashley. Ironically, she was wearing a "Good Vibes" shirt, yet her attitude toward me was anything but welcoming. As I explained that I am a strict RAW vegan and wanted to build my own salad without rice or meat, she became noticeably extremely rude, dismissive and snarky. I wasn't requesting anything outside of what the menu already offers; I was simply using the build-your-own option that Blend advertises. What was most disappointing was what happened afterward. While waiting for my order, both my friend and I could clearly hear and observe Ashley mocking me from the back area. Right in the doorway as if she didn't try to hide it at all talking to another employee...at one point, she appeared to be imitating someone using a cane. Which is obviously not a coincidence considering as someone who currently uses a cane while recovering from cancer treatment, she was clearly mocking me. Yesterday's experience was deeply hurtful and humiliating. To avoid further embarrassment, or harassment my friend suggested and I chose to sit outside and finish our meal. No apology was offered, nor was there any attempt to address the situation by any of the staff. I genuinely wanted to support this local business, but after this experience, I will not be returning and cannot recommend it to others. Everyone deserves to be treated with basic kindness and respect, regardless of their dietary choices or physical limitations.

The young lady who rang me up mixed up my order (a smoothie) and gave it to another individual who…read moredrank out of it. Another employee said, "That's the Sunrise Sunset with spinach" (which is what I had). I overheard them having this conversation, but they didn't think I heard it. Less than one minute later my smoothie was done, and I asked the young lady if she made a new one. She said yes. I told her that was impossible. She repeated that she did make it over, but when I asked her co-worker if she made it over, she quietly shook her head no (please give this young lady a raise or something for being honest). I usually have grace for fast food establishments getting my order wrong, but this was absolutely UNACCEPTABLE and UNSANITARY. I will be calling corporate and will take to social media if needed.

I had the Bahama Mama Smoothie and it was delicious. Quick and friendly service. We will return.read more

A lovely discrete treasure, a blessing to the South Charlotte food scene…read more This easy to find yet tucked away café was the best breakfast I've had in many years. The meal started off with an iced rosemary lavender latte crafted with their in house syrup made with cane sugar and fresh herbs. Rosemary and coffee has been a revelation to my palate and I'll be back for this alone. Which I will happily enjoy in this comfortable and cute dining area. Breakfast was made to order from fresh ingredients, piping hot and intentionally seasoned. As their bright and cheerful owner puts it, the main ingredient is love. And trust me, you can taste it. This is the first time in my two decades of eating tofu that I can actually shoutout how delicious it is. And the aromas coming of this photogenic waffle were mouthwatering. While Charlotte has become over run with corporate and copy cat restaurants, it is truly a thing of comfort to enjoy a delicious meal made by good people that care not only about what's on the plate, but who is eating from it. 6 stars

A true hidden gem, I had no idea this was here!!!…read more Such beach vibes- so fun!! The whole front wall is open- no door to walk through, the floor is blue and there are wave/surfing pictures on the wall so it is meant to feel like you're at the beach. There is seating inside and out. The front of the menu is all coffee options and the back is smoothies/bowls. Half of the smoothie side is fruity and half is non fruity. The menu is very descriptive and even says what it would be topped with if you get a bowl. You can get any option as a smoothie or a bowl. There are SO many options- truly something for everyone. Although some have peanut butter and you can add in peanut butter to any of them, only one option seemed protein packed since it had protein powder- called the Bro. I got that one since I had just worked out. it was filling and delicious! It was $6.50 for a smoothie which I didnt think was too bad. I would definitely go back and try something new!
