Amazing juice and really yummy acai bowls. I personally like the hail to kale juice and the PB acai bowl. It's super expensive but well worth it if you're in the area. It's not an everyday thing, since it's so expensive. But if you can afford it GO FOR IT! Large runs juice about 9$ and the acai bowls are like 11$ read more

Seriously a love hate relationship between my taste buds and my wallet. Everything is so delicious but when I see my credit card statement every month, I really try to cut back. WHYY sooo expensiiiivee JG?!?! oh, its because they can! ohh well. I will continue to have a few juices and acai bowls each month... But I have also started to make them at home. Not as good, but cant wait for the cook book to come out so I can tweak my receipes :))) read more

I give you One Star because you have a great product and we love the Açai bowl. I wish I could give you more but as a long time consumer I feel as though you are not for the customer and your policies are not consumer friendly. You don't take orders over the phone. That would save time for people who need to get to work on time. You don't deliver (why)? You don't take a $100 bill even though our receipt is over $50 every time. Employees including management are trained to say it's just the way it is. Not a great culture move. Juice press just moved much closer to me I will give them a try. As a consumer making life a bit easier helps more than you know. It takes a life time to gain a customer it takes seconds to lose them. Sorry that this doesn't work for us. read more

I walked into Juice Generation, I had the cold pressed holy water and let me tell you, I felt like god was pouring it in my mouth! I never tasted something so pure ever! This location is immaculate! Never seen a store so clean in my life. I love this location! The customer service was exquisite, I felt like family when I walked in this store. That's how more businesses should treat there customers and This why, I will definitely be coming back! Thank you Juice Generation 3rd Avenue for this amazing experience!! read more

I love the almond smoothie. YUM

The cold pressed juice is quite good here, as are the Acai Bowls. Supa Dupa Greens is by far my favorite juice, with a taste and calorie count that matches many of NYC's very best juice spots. As for Acai Bowls, my favorite is technically the Almond Butter Bliss but I think the best way to go is order the Amazing Green with Almond Butter on top. If you go to Juice Generation's site you can see the smoothies and acai bowls are both pretty high in sugar but I think people know this when they order Juice Generation. To be honest, I view the almond butter acai bowl as a kind of guilty pleasure. The cold pressed juices, however, do make me feel as if I am doing something good for my body. This place is almost always packed and is pretty small but the guys working here are nice and you can tell they really are trying to do their best to keep up. The day I was here the line was out the door. So yeah, not the greatest juice spot in all of NYC period, but definitely a very awesome and yummy place on the Upper East Side. read more

Excellent to have in the UES. I love how they offer both options of to go (already bottled) juice that is easy to take on the subway or out for the day, but also have the more traditional juices that they make based on your order. They have a great selection of juices, smoothies, acai.. basically everything you need for a healthy breakfast.SO many good, delicious, fresh choices that they make in front of you. It was very crowded and there isn't much room, but they were able to make the juices fast. Price was appropriate with other juice places. Overall, its convenient, delicious, healthy, great aka dangerous for if your in the area, but nothing special to go out of your way for. read more

OMG this is the best vegan place in NYC. Their fast, fun, super friendly and really helpful. The best acai bowls in NYC hands down. I love this place in in here almost everyday. The best.....keep up the great work!! read more

I love this place - i either get the Supa Dupa Greens or Daily Detox! They are consistent and quick! read more

Post-Thanksgiving food coma... all I wanted was vegetables, lettuce, and green juice. Stopped in here to pick up some liquid greens and was kind of unimpressed. I got a 12 oz "Get Your Green On" for over $8.00 and it took me about 6 sips to finish it. It was half juice and half foam which was a little weird. The temperature was also lukewarm... I dunno, I prefer my juice pretty cold. On the plus side, I was full a couple hours later and feel somewhat healthier. Might give the regular smoothies a shot in the future. read more

Solid juice spot! For a bunch of people waiting, we got out bowls really quickly! Awesome menu with some great options for everyone. I like the variety of juices and the fun names they have. read more

Loved it . Freshly squeezed juice and other healthy choices available for different tastes . A little pricy but it's NYC

So I love this place and their pricey juices but the fact I found a full leaf of spinach in my smoothie leaves a sour taste in my mouth. I enjoyed the smoothie but dont appreciate that it wasn't blended well enough that a whole leaf of spinach was left intact. read more

Juice Generation - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - New York, New York

This place is always packed and I myself have frequented several times. Outside of the Mucho Mango, I've never had another smoothie flavor there I'm that wowed over by but everyone has their preferences and this place has a decent size menu. Overall though, I find a lot of their smoothies to be bland and lacking in flavor. My other complaint is that I feel for a $9-$10 smoothie the cup should be full. Numerous times, the cup looks exactly like it did today, missing about an inch and I haven't even taken a sip. I think today is my last day to visit this place for awhile. There are numerous smoothie places in the UES, I'm going in search of one that gives customers the full amount they paid for. read more

Juice Generation - This was before I had drank any. For $9.20, I think the cup should be full. - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - New York, New York

Maybe it's just because I have yet to catch on to the juicing trend, but I still don't get how $7 for blended up fruit makes sense in any universe. I was wandering around the UES the other day. It was super hot out, so I was in the mood for some kind of cold beverage or dessert. I'd remembered Juice Generation because one of my friends is a big fan of them, so I did a quick search to see if there were any locations near where I was. This one was just a couple of minutes away, so I dropped by. I had the watermelon smoothie, which is watermelon, blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries. They asked me what kind of sweetener I wanted, which I decided to go without, because I figured that the fruit would be sweet enough. It wasn't - the taste of the smoothie was kind of neither here nor there, which I was really disappointed by. This isn't Juice Generation's fault per se, but watermelon is pretty sweet on its own, y'know? And when it's blended, it should have about the same flavor. So I don't know if it's because the fruit they were using wasn't ripe, or because you really need the extra sweetener to make it taste good, or what. Either way, it was underwhelming, especially with a $7 price tag. Ugh... I don't know, guys. $7 for fruit in a blender. I just don't get it. read more

The bowls are delicious and satisfying. The plastic spoons provided are problematic, however. Their "cup" is a bit too deep and, as a result, the "edges" slice into the corners of my mouth. read more

Joyful almond is sooooooooooooooooooooo good. It's like you're treating yourself to a decadent dessert but without feeling guilty! I love this for after a workout in substitute of a meal! It's filling but not heavy! Hale to Kale is another favorite of mine....esp if you like watermelon! read more

Decided to venture over on my lunch this afternoon since I have been feeling slightly awful about myself post Holiday eat as much as I want. The 3 gentleman working were very nice and patient as the small space crowded quickly. They were quick to make everyone's smoothie and juice to perfection and even handled an older lady with all her mighty juice questions while taking care of everyone behind her. I went all out for the Veg-o-might and am a huge fan now and will def. be returning on a regular basis. The prices aren't too shabby either and the sizes are quality. I have heard nothing about good things about this juice craze and have high hopes for my new favorite phase. I am only giving it 4 stars because as it is my first time i want to try other juices and perhaps even soups to make sure everything is "as good as it gets!" I can only hope they see regulars and start a punch card for come back's! Looking forward to my lunch tomorrow now. read more

Juice Generation - 20oz Supa-dupa greens. My favorite. - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - New York, New York

See all

My husband and I wanted a smoothie on a hot day so we stopped in here. It was crowded, but moved fairly quickly. The reason I am giving this place two stars is because the staff we dealt with had a attitude problem from ordering to getting our drinks. We also didn't really like the smoothies very much and they were quite expensive. I wouldn't rush back. Also, for a place so busy it seemed a bit chaotic when they called out orders that were done. They would call the drink name, but several people had ordered the same thing. They should use a number system or take names. read more

Juice Generation appeals to me because they make their juices right in front of you, so you can see how they make them and verify that the the ingredient list is valid. This location is clean and efficient. They have a variety of pre-made juices, as well as freshly prepared to order juices, smoothies, and "elixirs." Their prepared foods also are well stocked and appear fresh and refrigerated at a health-grade friendly temperature. Nothing against this location, but rather the chain in general tends to put a lot of emphasis on apple juice as an ingredient in their drinks. In my opinion, this is essentially a filler ingredient. I have asked for them to substitute other produce, and the reply is always "there will be an extra charge." I don't get how lemon or cucumber is more costly than apple, but whatever. I am not a toddler and I don't want to pay that much money for a tiny kale-flavored apple juice. If you are in the area, and want a juice, I do recommend Juice Generation over the juice press next door. read more

I got the PB Acai bowl, and it's tasty! Giving it a 4 because although the bowl is good, ~$12 for its size isn't worth it. They don't even scoop out all the acai blend from the blender. It fills up a little less that 3/4 of the bowl. Service is friendly but kind of slow. Would go occasionally but wouldn't say it's my go-to. read more

I stumbled upon this gem and have added this place to my addiction list. The juices taste great and the staff are very pleasant. I live in the Bronx so I'm hoping for a location at least in harlem but I will travel to this location until then. read more

Juice Generation - Get your green on, the mint taste so refreshing. - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - New York, New York

Highlights: - awesome smoothies that taste good, quality ingredients for the super health conscious - good price. and by good, I mean under $9, which is where I usually start complaining - great staff. important because I'm annoying as hell. and they must get annoyed as hell with people asking questions about their products all day. friendly, attentive, efficient. they can hustle when the crowd pours in. thank you. - healthy food options, which I have yet to try. the only reason being that they have too many options, I get flustered deciding, then leave and get a non gluten free slice of pizza. they always have one option: pizza Notes: - this space is usually reserved for complaints and nit picking, but I have nothing to offer read more

Pretty typical juice generation chain store. I love their acai bowls compared to some other places nearby. **Two notes about this location to keep in mind: 1) they're often out of regular plant protein. I've never had an issue at other locations, yet this has happened multiple times only here. 2) they offer whey protein, but you have to ask for it. I got a flavored substitute since they ran out of their regular plant protein powder, and it was disgusting. When I inquired on if they really only had vanilla or chocolate powder, another worker mentioned they carry whey protein. I asked why I wasn't offered that, and he said because they primarily offer vegan-friendly items, they don't mention it to avoid giving an animal product out. You have to ASK for it yourself. So just FYI for your non-vegetarians out there! read more

Best smoothies out there, hands down. Coco Acai Smoothie is one of the best things I've ever tasted. All their stuff tastes fresher and healthier than any other alternative. I make sure to have one whenever I'm around a location in the city. read more

Juice Generation - Acai Bowl (Almond Butter Bliss) - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - New York, New York

Great staff at this location! Always get a delicious smoothie whenever I go! Love the PB açaí bowl too!

I'm a regular here and I really like it. I love the staff and their menu is tasty. The price for me is bearable as I treat their juices as meals. When it comes to smoothies I agree that not all of their fruit is fresh, some of it is frozen. And by the way if you're into counting calories watch out for the them, most are around 400/420 calories. I think that even though the fresh juices aren't the most popular choices here, those are the ones that are the best bet. I'm not saying you're gonna love the taste but it's worth it - vitamin explosion. read more

Staff is always really friendly. The drinks are moderately priced ann the consistency is always same. (which is actually a good thing) . I highly recommend their daily detox if you want to lose some weight! The Arizona All-Star is okay little too sweet for me, and too much ice. *** my two cents, if you're looking to stay in shape and eat healthy it's definitely a great place to go for a quick pick me up! read more

I love their smoothies that is usually accompanied with great friendly service. I tried this location since it was really close to my job and I can definitely say I will be coming again. The different combinations of smoothies cant be resisted. read more

Clean place. Friendly staff. The quality of the smoothies are awesome. Why settle for a sugar filled frappucino when you can have something that is nourishing and tastes just as good? read more

Juice Generation Fanatic here. Almond butter bliss addict. Peanut butter split junkie. Kale and avocado salad lover. I could literally live off of this organic raw vegan food. Yes crowded sometimes, because it's just that good. It's CLEAN EATING at it's finest. LOVE! read more

This place is mobbed with apres Soul Cycle and Pure Yoga devotees, but so worth waiting for. The Daily Detox and the Supa Dupa Green are the two fresh juices that I've tried. The Supa Dupa Green has kale, spinach, granny smith apples, parsley, lemon, and cucumbers. It isn't the best juice I've ever had, but I feel like I'm doing something good for my body. The daily detox is tastier, but it still isn't a margarita.... read more

My spot for a delicious smoothie. People working there are always happy and super assertive. This is my mornings no addiction.

Love the fresh juices and smoothies. I am kind of addicted to this place & dont feel whole without a supa dupa greens everyday. I also love the hale to kale. The smoothies r great too, my favorite is the protein buzz smoothie. The fresh salads and soups are delicious. I love the kale avocado and sesame chicken. The fruit tart is a must try. The muffins are fabulous. I just love love this place. so happy its close to my apartment. read more

Oh Juice Generation how I love your over-priced smoothies. I have gone countless times but always get the peanut butter split because it is oh so delicious even though I tell myself I could make the same thing for myself at home for 1/3 of the price and probably 1/2 the calories but it is so good. And I appreciate the fact that they are open until 10 pm or something so it can be a great meal replacement option for dinner post-gym. It's pretty packed at all hours of the day so they obviously are doing something right. read more

I literally come here everyday. I either have a Green Juice, Joyful Almond with Kale or PB Acai Bowl with Spinach. The PB Acai bowl is so good I seriously close my eyes and cry silent tears of joy. The prices are not at all cheap but I am particular about what I put in my body and I don't mind the extra cost. I don't ever see any women working here but the guys are all super nice and polite and there is one in particular who is a cutie (!!!). Of all the times I've come here, I have only had one incident of being charged for an ingredient I didn't ask for. I didn't sweat it much cause I was HANGRY. read more

I went into this place to get a juice. It was OK. The vegetable and fruit selection is a bit limited and i didn't care for the warm temperature. I must agree that there was a lot of foam in the serving. What got me excited is the Almond Butter Bliss. It was amazing, tasty filling unbelievable. I can't wait to eat it again. Definitely going back for more. read more

I would order a drink from Juice Generation everyday if my wallet could afford. I'm a big fan of the hail to kale juice...mmm. Typically I'll treat myself to one after working out. The place is small and fills up quickly but the service is typically fine. Happy to leave near here - if only it was more affordable for a daily juice! read more
