Juice Generation - Pb acai bowl - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - New York, New York

Good smoothies but a bit more expensive than I would like. I've had shakes/smoothies from a local bodega that were as good as this for a lot less. I guess due to being near Columbus Circle it adds a premium. Staff was very busy when I went, there was a whole group of construction workers taking their time to order so I had a long wait. Ordered the Mr. Greengenes smoothie and I was happy with it. A sweet and savory kale/spinach combo with mango and banana, added some oat milk too. Would come back here for a juice craving if the juice cart nearby is closed. read more

Got a smoothie and açaí bowl . Smaller portion bowls . Both things I got tasted like when you first try making smoothies at home to save money . The açaí was very light colored and very watery . Had absolutely no flavor . And they were out of dragon fruit so I was already settling . Pass on this place . It looked much better than it tasted . read more

I went with a 3* only because of the rude employee who took my order (otherwise it's a big 5*). You might not want to hear the story, but here it is :) I asked to add flax seeds to the Aloha Acai bowl, he kept telling me flax seed doesn't come in that one and I'd have to order a different one. But I knew it could be added because another store did it. Finally he asked a manager who showed him the button to press to add it. $1 extra, yay! That's what I wanted. My next question was, do they add any sweetener? But before I could get that question out he rudely interrupted and told me I was holding up the line and I needed to be done with my order. In the time he told me that, he could've just answered my question! Although I'm glad he was concerned about the line, he needs to be taught how to treat the customer at the counter. I loved Juice Generation! Everything I tried at all the different locations was delicious and fresh. read more

Juice Generation - Had a poor experience with an employee who needs help in the customer service area. - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - New York, New York

This Juice Generation location has always been so nice and kind to me when I walk through the door. a very friendly, open environment with great, swift service. But the kind service isn't what brings me on yelp today. My issue is the amount of plastic waste that I've discovered in my beverage (as I'm drinking it) is absolutely harmful. What if I would have been purchasing this for my 4 year old nephew and put him in harms way? This is the THIRD time I've coughed up and choked on plastic bits. This is not ok. I wish I could've asked for my money back, but I was already in the train station headed downtown. Juice generation employees must be careful on their process for handling food. My biggest concern isn't for me but for the parents and children who come in to order a smoothie and the potential dangers of mishandling food frozen in plastics to then be choked on. If this happens again, I'm going to look into this matter very seriously and file a report. Again, this is NOT ok. read more

Favorite spot for a quick convenient lunch in midtown. I love the ready to grab salads. The kale/quinoa and avocado/kale are my go to choices. They are packed with protein and prepared fresh daily. I come during off peak hours - 2pm or 3pm to pick up a late lunch. If you come during the lunch hour - beware of the line. Wheat grass shots are available, as well as smoothies and juices. read more

If you're unfamiliar with Juice Generation, it should be noted that everything on the menu is a perfect blend of pure goodness!! Products include: fresh juices, smoothies, acai bowls, packaged/prepared food, sweets, bottled drinks, and all things organic!! I love this location because it's a life savor for when I need an energy boost after shopping at The Shops at Columbus Circle or when I want to have breakfast or a snack in Central Park (which are both walking distance). Whether it's your first, second, or hundredth time at this location - the placement of the menus really help make ordering very easy. The menus are large and located on the left wall right next to the entrance: it's visible and in a spot where you won't block traffic. The staff members are friendly and very swift at processing orders. Highly Recommend!!! read more

Never got our food and no way to contact the store. Spent over $50 and was on the phone with the delivery driver for around 20 min going back and forth; driver was a block away and after some time said the order was delivered but we never got it. Very disappointed. Would appreciate if customer service existed. read more

Found this place as I was on my way to class & trying to find a healthy breakfast. They have a huge selection of juices, smoothies, bowls & other yummy bites. Staff was friendly & got my Mr. Greengenes out pretty fast. I was expecting it to be pretty potent since it had kale & slinach but it was excellent. A few other items caught my eye so I'll be back! read more

Juice Generation - Mr. GreenGenes.. pretty expensive $9 something for about 20oz but it was excellent - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - New York, New York

Great acai bowls. I went here after work for a healthy sweet treat and ended up getting the Aloha Acai bowl. I added in cocoa nibs at no extra charge. It's nice to know you can customize the pre-made options without getting little charges here and there. The store was nice and cool and had many refrigerated options to take home with you. I didn't have to wait too long for my bowl to be prepared. When I did get my order, I was slightly disappointed when I saw the size of the bowl. It was smaller than other bowls from the city and they were bigger for about the same cost, $12 approximately. read more

Juice Heaven!!!! I was visiting from California and craving healthy, satisfying, gluten free and vegan options. Not much to ask for, but difficult to find in New York right? NOT!!! Juice Generation got me so excited! I stayed at the Viceroy which wasn't much of a walk at all. Juice Generation is adjacent to central park, they offer so many juices, shots, and snacks. I was in such a rush otherwise I would've tried so many other things! I wish we had a Juice Generation in California. The employees here are also kind and welcoming. I can't wait to return to New York this summer and visit another one of their locations. Stop by and check them out read more

So, if you're into juicing at all, this chain is one that will leave you feeling energized, guilt-free, and refreshed! However, with these crazy high price tags, you're better off doing it yourself at home. Seriously. I do make my own super juices from time-to-time, but didn't have time to make anything juicy this morning. Instead I stopped at Juice Gen for a quick-pick-me-up in the form of "Supa Dupa Greens Juice". This super juice consists of: kale, celery, lemon, parsley, cucumber, apple, collard greens, and spinach. Damn, that's a mouthful! Cost: $8.53 (or something, I threw away this receipt) Size: 12 oz Calories: 60 Feel Goodness Factor: how do we measure this? It's a whole lot, OK? I didn't try anything else. I came here with a one-track mind, and got exactly what I was craving. The only thing I hate is the absurd price tag, and for that, they lose a star. I know they have Midtown rent to pay, but there are plenty of juice bars in town serving up the same quality for half the price. Overall, I'd return if I really needed a juice fix (like today) and was too lazy or tired to make my own, or go somewhere else for the same thing. read more

Super healthy thirst quenchers. Pricey but worth the price. My favourite is the Daily detox with carrot, ginger and apple. Among the greener juices, Supa Dupa Greens and Hail to Kale are good. There could be a 5 to 10 minute wait. They don't serve in any particular order. You might find somebody who orders after you getting his/her drink before you do. That's the only bummer. Also, this is a take-out place. If I could afford it, I'd just live on their juices! They also have tender coconut if you'd like. read more

In case you get tired and thirsty walking in Manhattan s, go to this place. You wont be disappointed!

I've been craving smoothies a lot lately and was glad to have found Juice Generation right when I needed it the most! I wanted a snack, but also a drink, so a smoothie hit the spot. I wanted something refreshing and sweet since it was a perfect summer day outside, so I immediately went for the fruit juices or smoothies. With it being summer and all, the I LOVE Watermelon smoothie was an obvious choice. I've been obsessed with everything watermelon-related lately. It comes with fresh watermelon, a variety of berries, and ice. You can also choose to have some agave added, which I would recommend - it still wasn't overly sweet and tasted natural. You could taste the watermelon, but it was slightly overpowered by the berries. Still, I would have this refreshing drink again. It's tempting to keep coming here in the mornings on the way to work or for an after-work pick-me-up, but these things aren't exactly the cheapest thing and you could probably buy a full meal for the same price - that's the only downside. Along with the intense Pine Sol smell of their mop/cleaning solution which completely filled the store the day I was there. read more

Kale...mmmmm. I stopped in here for some green juice and they had it. For a price. I think my Crazy for Kale juice ran about 6$. Ouch. It was good though and tasted green just how I liked it. I was going to pick up something for lunch too but everything in the coolers was really expensive. It is New York in a slightly touristy area so that could be why. It may have been worth it for the vegan salads and sandwiches though, they looked fresh and really good, but I just couldn't hand over $10 for a sandwich to go. I also saw juice already squeezed in to go containers but they were running about $8-10 a bottle. Service was excellent and the employees were very nice and quick. I watched everything get juiced as the kitchen is open and looked clean. A good retreat from the craziness of Broadway. read more

Juice Generation - All hail the kale. - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - New York, New York

A sunny day in NYC and I was in the mood for a smoothie. I've never had one from Juice Generation nor been to one so it was cool to check it out. I apparently wasn't the only one taking advantage of the warm sunny weather since there was a long line as soon as I entered. It was a collective thought. The menu isn't too complicated. They have one for smoothies, juices, and various foods like acai bowls and soups. The ingredients are listed for every item and there aren't too many. I ended up getting the Mucho Mango which had mango (duh), strawberries, coconut flakes, and raw agave. The lady at the register was nice and even gave me a menu with all the nutrition facts of each item they make. The smoothie was great albeit pricy but you get what you paid for. It's organic and fresh and raw and all those healthy terms people like to throw out at you. The smoothie was refreshing, not too sweet, and fruity. A good alternative if to Jamba Juice. read more

Better than Jamba by far! I walked in and noticed an undeniable smell - it smelled healthy. It was a combination of a tower of veggies, fruit and freshly cut grass. I'm a big fatass so some of the items on the menu made me cringe/shiver a little bit. I'm going to be honest - I'm not a fan of Kale and I never will be. The idea of Kale and freshly cut grass doesn't do anything for me. But I did thoroughly enjoy my Pineapple Smoothie. I love that they use frozen coconut milk instead of fro-yo or just ice. The coco milk gave my smoothie a very nice consistency that ensured that there was no ice-clumpage on the bottom that would prevent me from drinking the other half of my drink (cue Jamba smoothies and Starbucks fraps). Prices are a little higher than Jamba but I'll gladly pay the extra for a delicious smoothie. read more

Came back a few times after my first visit, tried a lot more drinks I'm still loving it. Hail To Kale - Sweeter taste from the watermelon, tangy from the apple with a hint of lemon aftertaste Supa Dupa Greens - The taste of parsley, celery and romaine just burst in your month... You can also taste a tad bit of lemon towards the end. Tropical Lust - On a sweeter side with a kick of spice from the ginger. For those who are trying the juice for first time, I recommend Hail To Kale. Supa Dupa Greens maybe overwhelming for those who aren't into their veggies. In terms of smoothies, Red Dragon Fruit is good, but Mr. Greengenes with soy milk is currently my favorite - both are awesome though. read more

A great location. Always so quick! The staff always has an upbeat attitude. When I was in there last (they made my açaí bowl so quickly I was able to eat and and run a few errands on my 30 minute lunch break!) a customer forgot something at the register and an employee dashed outside to return it to them. I'm so impressed by the efficiency of the mobile order/pickup fridge, and it's cute to see people walk out with coconuts sometimes. I understand the inability to have an indoor eating space, but my fear is that I'll be less tempted to eat here in the winter months because it'll be too cold to eat it/drink it outside. read more

"New York's Premier Juice Bar" lives up to all expectations for New Yorkers and tourists alike. One of the only places in the city with açaí bowls that live up to those found elsewhere, and tasty options for all dietary restrictions! read more

Pros: (+) Good variety of smoothie options (+) Option to have your drink served in a real coconut shell or just a cup (+) Unique variety of snacks Cons: (-) I had food poisoning from their pre-made sandwich in the fridge (-) Their sandwiches do not have labels, including expiration dates! ------------------------------------------- If you have a weak stomach, don't read my review. Still reading? Well you've been warned! lol It was my first time here and I would have given this place a solid 5 if it weren't for the food poisoning from their sandwich, but I'll touch on that in a bit. I work nearby and was on my break so I was ecstatic to discover a healthy option. If you want to imagine yourself on an island in this crazy busy city, then you can have your smoothie served in a coconut shell. Ooooh fancy! =) There wasn't a huge selection for pre-made meals (other than snacks) and since I was pressed with time, I took what was available, a pre-made sandwich with avocado. I noticed right away that the sandwiches wrapped in clear cellophane did not have a label indicating the type of sandwich, nutritional facts or even an expiration label. There was only a sign indicating each sandwich type. I just figured that they were in-house made sandwiches which explained the non-labels. Anyways, after finishing my sandwich and returning back to work - about 30 minutes later I had a horrible upset stomach and ended up spending some time in the glorious bathroom vomiting that sandwich up. Ugh! Not a good first time experience at this place. I know it wasn't the smoothie that made me sick because I didn't even drink close to half of it before having to chuck it. I lost any desire to drink the rest of my smoothie after that experience. I definitely will never eat any of their sandwiches ever again! Would I come back for the smoothie? I haven't decided yet. The only reason why I still gave this place a 3 was because of the service and the smoothie in itself. But knocked it 2 stars for the bad sandwich experience. read more

Always love the smoothies here. I'm nearby for the next month and I'll be stopping by more often. My son even loves the smoothies!

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

Juice generation is awesome- quick, convent, fast and has an excellent selection of healthful raw/ vegan food options. The place is just brimming with the aromas of fresh wheatgrass and carrot juice, which is refreshing and almost necessary after walking around in crummy bumbling midtown west. I dock points because of one extremely sad and lacking component- it is not organic. Sure I understand it keeps the price down but hey- your selling fresh pressed juices, and therefore the consumer is probably just as conscientious and willing it pay for the premium! With juice having such a high concentration of nutrients, it's a shame when the pesticides and chemicals of inorganic ingredients are just as fresh as the juice itself :( wahhh, I digress. read more

Fresh excellent juice for an arm and a leg prices, but worth it because of portion size and quality, especially the freshly juiced stuff.

The location is very small but if you don't stand near the cash register someone will walk of with your purchase. Today it happend to me I was waiting for my 20oz Hail to Kale( love the names) and someone walked off with it. Of course the employee apologized for the the very hurried person. Other then the choas around the cash register and pick up space its a great place for a healthy drink or snack I will be back read more

Great combination option for smoothies. Very healthy and filling. Located at great locations too.

I love juice generation. I wish i could go everyday but it's $11.50 for a green juice everyday and that adds up. I had a full salad at Chop't yesterday for less money. Go...but maybe once a week. read more

came here to get a breakfast smoothie to start the day and decided on the Dragon Fruit Smoothie. It had mango, banana, pomegranate and agave in it. perfect amount of sweetness and nice texture. it rang up to just under 8 dollars which isn't too bad for a fresh organic smoothie. don't be too alarmed by the neon pink color of the dragon fruit smoothie. they must blend some of the skin in it cause the interior is white with black seeds. read more

I've been to multiple Juice Generation locations in the city, but this is my favorite in terms of service and the store. I often stop in after my workouts for a healthy smoothie to recharge. I haven't had a bad smoothie yet. My favorites are the Cashew Butter Baby, Protein Knockout, and Protein Buzz. You can usually customize the drinks by adding flavors of protein powder, various milks, or boosts. Smoothies run between $9-10 for 20oz, which is cheaper than most other juice places I've encountered in the city. Like I said, I like this spot the best due to the service. The people are friendly and keep the line moving quickly. None of these stores are large and they get crowded, so it's important that they get you in and out. After a few visits, Juice Generation is solidified as my favorite smoothie place in the city. I've heard great things about their juice cleanses and acai bowls, so I'm going to give those a shot as well! read more

Also, the popcorn is a nice snack and vegan :) read more

One of my favorite juice spots in New York City! The staff is friendly and the juice is great. The shop is pretty small but they manage the line and ordering process very well.
