However, the topping were VERY skimpy!! the pictures show full slices of kiwi, plus like 7-8 slices of strawberries. in my large bowl I got 3 slices of kiwi cut into quarters, I received 4 very thin slices of strawberry which did not amount to even 1 full strawberry. My sister had a quarter of a banana, I think it was 4 thin slices, and she had 9 blueberries. Make your bowls look like your pictures! For $15 please give us more fruit!

Fantastic smoothie bowl place in Barrie! Exactly what I was hoping to find this morning…read more It was not very busy around 10am on a Monday, and there are a ton of options to choose from. Lots of base smoothie flavors and a very wide variety of fruity, dry, drizzled toppings. I ended up going for the acai bowl and chose coconut, blueberry, bee pollen, and banana as my toppings. She was very generous with the toppings, ensuring a perfect photo op! They also have frozen smoothies to take home so you just need to thaw them out. Taste wise, I think the toppings were really fresh, but the smoothie bowls are all pre made. It doesn't quite taste the same. I was hoping to see them blending orders as they came in for that fresh smoothie taste and delightful texture. Instead, it was already premade and frozen so it tasted a little watered down. Just slightly. And it was still icy. I just let it sit in the sun for a few minutes, and that worked perfectly. I love that they don't add sugar too. Definitely would return. If I lived in the area, I would get some more of the unique bases to take home. Definitely try the blue citrus one too! Beautiful look and tastes really refreshing!

I think I would order another flavour if I go back. It is good though. The blueberry is very prominent in my opinion so if you don't like blueberry, refrain from ordering this. The bowl is huge mind you. I would recommend sharing or storing it away for leftovers. The service is great and very quick. More of an in and out type of place but they do have some seats if you wanted to stay. They played good music (I even asked them once what song was playing lol) and the vibe of the place is overall very zen and chill. They have these cute swings there too.

I was in Newmarket tonight. I took the backroads for half of it. I looked at highway 404 and…read moretraffic was light. I took it heading northbound and exited at Davis Drive. To the west of highway 404 is a new plaza with a bunch of businesses. Booster Juice was one of them. Today, it's celebrating 24 years in business. You buy one smoothie and get another one for free. Fun fact: I had never set foot in a Booster Juice in my life. Markham has one. I never wanted to drop by. After stopping by Upper Canada Mall, I drove over to this store before heading home on the 404. There was plenty of parking at this plaza. I parked in front of Booster Juice. The store is between Thai Express and barBurrito. I walked in and was greeted by two friendly, energetic women. I had asked my friend who loves Booster Juice what she think I would like before heading over to a Booster Juice. I'm a berry person. She recommended berry smoothies. I went with her suggestions. I got the following smoothies: - Very berry - Lemon berry It was just over $9 for each smoothie. My other one was indeed free. I paid with a credit card. I tapped and was done. It took no time for them to make my smoothies. It was impressive. I thanked both of them and headed to my car. I then drove home. Their smoothies have yogurt in them. It's not a lot. They don't have any dairy substitutes, though. The yogurt flavour was faint. I had the very berry smoothie first. It was slightly sweet, but not disgusting. I liked the berry flavours. It had strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and cranberries. I was pleased. This store has purple paper straws. It held up nicely in my smoothie for nearly an hour. I had a quick sip of my lemon berry smoothie. It was delicious. I like lemon anything. It tasted like a lemonade fruit punch. I loved the lemon flavour mixed in with pomegranates, cranberries, strawberries, and pineapples. I saw protein balls in the display area. They looked intriguing. You can enroll in Booster Rewards. You get a free regular smoothie on your birthday when you sign up. That's incentive enough for me to give it a try. It was a nice first experience at Booster Juice. I'm not sure how often I'd come, considering that I get shakes and teas elsewhere fairly regularly. It was nice changing things up and checking this store out. I look forward to returning. (434)

Came across Acai Concept online while looking for acai bowls. Unlike all the other stores I have…read morebeen to, you get to customize your bowl or in this case cup. First, you choose the size of the cup. There are a total of five different sizes! Next, pick between acai, red dragonfruit, or a mix of both as your base. There are unlimited toppings to choose from but don't expect a range as wide as fro yo shop. I tried pacoca (crushed peanuts coated with sugar) and no kidding when they say it tastes like a Reese cup! Unfortunately, I am not a fan of how the base taste. Too sweet for me and the natural fruit flavour doesn't shine through.

I decided to try out this place since I was exploring the area. I'll be honest the place usually…read moreseems quiet and when we walked in it looked a bit run down and had a smell. However, the gentleman working was very helpful and could tell it was my first time there. He explained how it worked, gave recommendations and was very friendly. I got the 12 ounce and got both açai berry and dragonfruit. There's a variety of toppings to choose from. It was very yummy and reminded me of a froyo or smoothie. Despite its appearance I would recommend for an evening dessert or snack.

I love a refreshing juice or smoothie, even in the winter. Right now they have a deal where if you…read morebuy a $25 gift card, you get a free smoothie! That's really not bad considering the regular sized ones can be around $7. The cashier let me know I could use the gift card right away to pay for my other purchases too so it wound up being super convenient. They tend to have pretty cool seasonal concoctions. Right now they have a gingerbread smoothie for the holidays. During the fall they had a pumpkin spice smoothie! My go-to is always the mango hurricane. It can be a bit sweet because of the guava but it's a nice treat.

I would come back here just get a smoothie made by Zena. She was absolutely amazing. I originally…read moregot the Breezy Banana, but found it too sweet for me. I went back to get another one, and when Zena helped me again, I peppered Zena with questions to get the smoothie I wanted. Not only was she super patient with all my questions (trust me, I had a lot), but she also made recommendations and explained what kind of substitutions I could make. She was not frustrated at all with my indecision, and remained super upbeat even when I changed my mind. I finally decided on the Mind over Matcha. Zena really wanted to make sure I liked the second smoothie, and showed me the smoothie three times and made sure I liked the taste before she let me go. When I thanked her, she said, "Come back any time--I'd love to make a smoothie for you!" How fantastic is she? And the smoothie was perfect. I wish I lived in the area. I'd totally go to this location all the time.

I've always wanted to try Refresh, but never had the opportunity to have it until today, when I was…read moremaking a stroll through Downtown Guelph. They use the highest quality organic fruits and vegetables and are most famous for their cold-pressed juices. Instead of getting a cold-pressed juice, I decided to get one of their açai bowls. Here's my rundown: Food There were three açai bowls to choose from - classic, beauty, and soul. I got the beauty açai bowl which had the açai, avocado, coconut oil, and almond milk blend topped with bananas, granola, coconut flakes and fresh strawberries. The açai blend was smooth and rich in flavour while the fresh fruit and oats made for great flavours and textures. It was a very refreshing treat to get and had the perfect balance between all ingredients. Atmosphere Can't really comment on the atmosphere here because the store is quite small and has minimal seating. There were about 4 high chairs to sit but it's more meant to be used while you're waiting for your drinks or bowls. It's small like most downtown cafés and this place is more so for those grab and go type of people. Service Service was really friendly and the employee was helpful in helping me make a decision about the type of bowl to get. No complaints here; they were really inviting and patient with my indecisiveness. Price I paid $10 for the açai bowl! A little pricy but you're paying for quality organic food here so it's worth every dollar. Verdict Refresh is indeed a refreshing experience has they use only the finest organic fruits to make their products. I'm excited to return here to try their juices and other açai bowls. Definitely worth a try if you're roaming around downtown Guelph. A well-deserved 5/5 experience!
