Love Jamba so glad the brought back the Parmesan pretzel. I always get an old school citrus squeeze and it is always taste amazing

I am reading all these other reviews about customer service and am pleasantly surprised. The sweet staff member that helped me was patient and friendly, greeted us right away, the drinks were finished fairly quickly and tasty as expected. Why I felt the need to post however was that the associate working today went above and beyond. She noticed that my toddler was in a Spider-Man hoodie, and she left him a cute little drawing on his cup, His face lit up and she really made his day today! Those small extra touches were deeply touching and appreciated! read more

What a horrible place. Words cannot describe my feelings for this establishment. The workers don't even do their jobs. I once ordered an Açaí bowl and expected it to be done in less than at least 10 minutes. However, it took about 20 minutes. I did not have the spare time for the workers to be chatting it up instead of working on my order. Not to mention, there was no other customers in the store. I felt as though I was being disregarded and almost left without taking my order with me. I hope they learn the importance of not wasting time and taking customers feelings into consideration. read more

Horrible service. Even worse attitude. The white girl that works Saturday nights lied about not having an item when I had just gotten it the night before just because she didn't wanna make it. When she did make it, it was missing ingredients and only filled up half of my large bowl. read more

Who would of ever thought Jamba Juice would carry Belgian Waffles? And, Belgian Waffles that are actually quite good! I had two.. The waffle come in come infused with a little bit of butter and natural vanilla. I do wish that they would serve them with a small side of maple syrup, but surprisingly enough, they are quite good straight out of the convection oven. The tasted great and had a good thickness about them. Best of all, they only cost $2 and some change each. This new location is nestled between Starbucks and Chipotle. Service was good. read more

My husband came in here on Friday afternoon at 8:30 pm. As soon as he walked in they straight away told him they were closed. He then said oh online and on the door it says you guys are open until 9. Instead of giving him a reason as to why they were closed, they just repeated themselves saying "We're closed." Like we get it you guys are closing earlier than said time on what is originally posted, but at least have some human decency to be either polite or give him a damn reason as to why you guys are closed early. Because of this my happy Jamba craving pregnant ass will rather make the drive to Santee or Rancho to get my Jamba Juice. Can't stand rude ass people that are working within customer service. Whoever runs this place needs to fix things, cause from the looks of it I'm not the first one complaining about this place! read more

Service was abysmal. The adolescent crew, after 4 pm today, served us the worst drinks ever. No receipt was given. Seeing that no fucks were given about their job. These "smoothies" were drinks before we even left the store. It's sad that Jamba employed these lack luster individuals to represent your company. I want a refund on my drinks, but that's probably wishful thinking. I won't be coming to this location again. Parkway is better. read more

I am not sure if you could give no stars for a review but today the El Cajon Jamacha Blvd Jamba management and front end staff earned it! I will never ever spend my hard earned dollars at this location with these poorly trained employees ever again. I am usually not one to write a review however, this needs to be addressed. I have been a customer and fan of the Jamba juice brand and have been spending my dollars with them for over 15 years. I have used Jamba for multiple fundrasing events with schools and the community, helping support the Jamba brand at a local level. I have been ordering few a types of drinks with them, with simple modifications over the years at many of the locations in multiple cities without any hassle and have received great service through the years however, The staff and management team at the Jamacha blvd location in El Cajon is truly an embarrassment to the Jamba brand. This place needs a complete overhaul to the managment team and definately better customer service training for new employees. With that being said.... If Jamba is giving out free drinks and I am asking for outrageous request, give me as much hassle as you wish. That however is not the case! I am paying for simple modifications that are available upon request, I should not be sent through an argument over a simple smoothie modification. I am being told I can't have a smoothie made extra think with no ice. Do I reallly have to explain to the staff that I have sensitive teeth and beg and pleed for the request as if it is a privilege to get a smoothie from this place. Do I have to explain that I have been ordering the smoothie like this at multiple locations with no hassle for more than a decade... I was literally going back and forth with a teenager that has been working there for a few months and then a Manager about making my drink with no ice, I purchased the drink for me, not the disgruntle staff (Manager) who by the way decided to tell me to my face I am rude because I requested my money back, They just dont get it! The KISS method could have gone a long way in this situation. Truly disappointed about this location Jamba. Who is hiring and training these people? I was speaking to a colleague of mine about this generation and challenges with staffing... We both agreed that we are starting to see more and more individuals working and having a disregard for customer service. just showing up to work for a paycheck not working to do an excellent job and performing at a high level. I am a restaurant operator and I our first and foremost priority is customer service period! My staff is evaluated on performance and trained never to argue with the customer! Today reminded me of the Dave Chapelle skit "PopCopy". Please read the reviews on this location, I am definitely not alone with this. In conclusion, I will always be a fan of Jamba however this location is in need of a serious overhaul to the management and front end staff! read more

Super easy to order cashier was quick and helpful. Smoothies tasted awesome today, inside was clean. No complaints today!! read more

I've been here many times. The manager purple hair or blue hair, named Allie/Alley, not sure how to spell it, it's very rude. I've ordered the (Lemon ginger cayenne shot) many times, and I have them add the Daily vitamin and Zinc to it. I've ordered that specifically at this location and other locations all over San Diego County. Then, all of a sudden today, she said she can't do that. I told her I've ordered that there many times as well as other locations. She would not budge. About a year ago or two ago, I tried to order during Covid. She would not let me order a drink because I didn't have a mask. I asked her why that location was the only one requiring that. She told me it was her rules. She clearly makes her own rules there, and a superior needs to reprimand her. She's rude and passive-aggressive. I spoke to another manager at a different location today. She knew exactly who I was talking about and said she wasn't surprised. Every other Jamba Juice location is great, but this El Cajon location needs a new manager. Period. read more

The drinks are good a bit pricey. But Warning don't get suckered doing the survey to win 500.00 the survey codes are the same on all receipts I've ordered. All they are wanting is all your information email ect. For marketing. Just another way to scam. read more

Jamba - Same survey code. Completely different reciepts. They only need your information once they got you. - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - El Cajon, California

The food is as expected here. Service is appropriate as well. The staff, especially a particular mgmt gal, is really awful. Went there today, Fri Nov 17th, and this "manager" served me. She had odd multi colored hair ( pink, purple etc) had many face piercings, lips, nose, cheek, tongue etc. I'm sure you can imagine. Worst of all was a HUGE, NASTY HICKIE on her neck, easily visible ! Her hair was pulled back in a "bun" so it was very noticeable. Very sloppily dressed. And this is management attire ???? I noticed this location has a 1.2 rating on the web site. Maybe they need to be a lot more particular in their hiring , did I say maybe ??? read more

Super rude employees bad attitude the whole time. Just ordering and and the employee was rolling her eyes and acting all pissy.

Worst customer service. By many. Blue hair lady doesn't know how to be nice and do her job . It's not the first time I've had a bad experience. /: read more

Staff consistently closes down juice machine an hour early and refuses to make my juice. It's more important to get out of work early then actually meet your customers needs. If your sign reads 8Pm closing machines down at 7pm is terrible customer service. read more

First review! Love this place. Staff here has always been real friendly and efficient. 5 's

It's starting to get annoying how often they're changing their hours, but not doing so on the internet so I have no idea if they're open.

Walked in, smell gross. Like they had mopped floor with a mop that sat in dirty water for a week. I should've left as soon I smelt it. But I decided to give them a try I ordered a aloha pineapple. Pleased with purchase I went to my car drove off took a sip of my drink at a red light and it tasted old. Like there was old pineapple juice in my drink. I've given this locations many chances to redeem themselves because it's closer to my home. But never again. I'll stick to the one in the parkway plaza mall. read more

I love coming here after boxing. We always stop by to get some ginger shots and we never regret it. The service is always excellent and everyone is always very nice. read more

I go here at least once a week to get a smoothie I ordered a smoothie yesterday before work and I noticed after I left and was at work that the smoothie tasted sour like it had rotten fruit in it and it was a large smoothie I paid seven dollars for and it was just rotten and I could not take it back because I was at work so I had to eat seven dollars with a rotten smoothie first time ever got rotten fruit in my smoothie read more

I usually have a good experience when I come here but the reason why I gave it four stars is because the drinks and food have went up a little. I don't mind it but it does reduce the times I come in. Besides that the acai bowls are really good and they make the smoothies fast! read more

Best staff and this spot is better than any other location I have gone! They know me by name, remember my orders and always make delicious smoothies/bowls! read more

I love jamba juice but quality can definitely vary by location. Today i got a strawberry bowl and took it home, once i took a bite i realized the granola was stale... I took off what i could and put my own granola from home on top but still kept getting bits of the chewy stale granola that was down in the base, uggh. Someone should be checking the freshness of ingredients before serving that day, even if that means a taste test. read more

I'm pretty sure I live here. Post workout I swing by and recharge usually with Apples in charge or a Peanut butter mood. The staff always welcomes me like its the first time regardless of the fact I'm there 6 days a week. They know what I like(and often remind me when I forget) and take time to chat and ask how my day was..they even held on to my yoga mat when I left it once! They rock read more

Love going here after the gym the lemon ginger shots are great!The smoothies are always good and the staff is always really friendly.

Every time I come to this location I am serviced promptly and courteously. The gals are awesome, they believe in what they do. I wished every place was run this way. Thank you for getting it right every time ! read more

Shouldn't matter where you go service and drinks are thesame .some sweeter someokay kindalikestar bucks.chill place for spring/summer

Stopped by to get breakfast around 9 AM. Got to smoothies and a cheddar tomato twist. The staff was very helpful, high-energy, and quick at making my smoothies so I can get out the door. I'll be back! read more

This my second time coming here and the first time was ok but the second time I came in I ordered a peanut butter mood and a strawberry chunk the girl with the glasses that made my stuff didn't seem to care. my smoothie tasted more like banana than peanut butter and my strawberry chunk didn't have all the ingredients that It should have had then the girl who made my stuff her friend came in and she seem to care more about talking to her friend than doing her job, she didn't make any eye contact with me she just slid my stuff across the counter to me while talking to her friend, not professional at all. read more

I love Jamba juice but not when the lid is forced on and juice is leaking out of the top down the side. I could manage that except the fruit was not blended. This drink was totally unacceptable. Chunks through out the whole drink. I had to actually blend it myself at home. I didn't pay for a drink to have to do it myself. Seriously. Slow down,pay attention, care about your job and the customers paying money to do something that can easily be done at home. I'll be making my own from now on. Too expensive for lazy employees to botch the drink. read more

The service is always excellent , love the oatmeal here! The staff is always very nice.

i went here today to try the promotional protein smoothie. and i was greeted by all the employees. they all had pleasant attitudes and were expedient and helpful to each other and myself the whole time. im a vegan so it was good to see the options they had available for me. i could switch the milk out for almond milk. i like that these beautiful ladies could work as a team. even though they all were a different races. read more

I've been Here 3 times since they opened hoping it would get better each time but it continues to get worse. I can't even begin to explain how gross the smoothie and acai Bowl tasted. I've tried a different thing on the menu every single time I'm gone and all of them have been worse than previous. Jamba Juice used to be one of my favorite places to go get a smoothie but I don't think I will ever step foot in another Jamba Juice again especially not this one. And the employees are Beyond rude. When I told one of them that my smoothie didn't taste right they gave me attitude. They were nice until I begin to speak in language asking my sister what she wanted. They took my order wrong and then my smoothie sat on the counter by their blender for about 10 minutes before they told me it was ready.I am so mad. Never again. Waste of my money all three times. And I always make large orders it's never just one smoothie it's usually two if not three with acai Bowl. My three year old nephew can make better smoothies. read more
