pretty sure one of the workers spit in my drink. saw something on the top that looked like human spit, wish i would have taken a picture before i decided to throw it away. disgusting. read more

I'd been to a different Nekter location years ago, but decided to stop by here when I saw that they had a pretty impressive pumpkin spice smoothie (pumpkin, banana, cashew milk, dates, and pumpkin spice mix). I ordered the larger size to split between my husband and I, and was pleasantly surprised by its flavor and perfect level of sweetness. Not a big fan of smoothies when they add a ton of apple juice or agave to sweeten it up; this one was just what we were looking for. However, Nekter would do well to smooth out a lot of customer service issues. There were two VERY unfriendly young women in there; the one who helped me had no idea what was in the smoothie and would barely even talk to me. This is after waiting for them to glance up long enough from filling their online orders to even acknowledge my presence. A minimal "I'll be with you in a minute" while I waited in the store for almost ten minutes to place my order (I was the only person in line). Awkward confusion with trying to figure out whether or not she was ready to take my order. The smoothie itself, while tasty, was poorly blended, and massive chunks of dates were still present. read more

This Nekter has gone down hill after the pandemic, the furniture, what little they have, is either broke, cushions in stools are cracked and ripped, windows and the walls are dirty. Love their product when the smoothies are made correctly! read more

Patiently waited in line, watched 3 different people get there order and as soon as i get to the front im told i cant use card or cash...shouldnt you be closed? read more

This location is awful. My smoothie tasted so watered down and took 30 MINUTES to fulfill. One of the employee's friends came in after me and she made his order of multiple items first even though I, and 2 other parties were already waiting before him. So unprofessional and not worth the $11 I paid. Go elsewhere. read more

I'm usually a big acai bowl person, ask anyone, and I was really craving for an acai bowl when I was in the area. Usually Nekters are decent for acai bowls but when I came to this one, I wasn't super impressed with it. It was just mediocre. I came here when there was basically no one here and yet, my acai bowl did take longer than what I expected. However, that's not a big deal to me cause I was really excited to get my acai. I ordered the Banana Berry Bowl (my go to type of acai bowl) and was pretty disappointed at the acai. The toppings were good because there was a good amount of granola, banana, strawberries, and blueberries. The acai, however, was kinda plain and there were chunks of it in my bowl. It just wasn't blended well. I was disappointed in that because what's an acai bowl without good acai?? It was still satisfying to get an acai bowl but I wasn't extremely happy with the whole thing. I'll probably come back next time when I'm craving an acai or when I'm in the area and hopefully, it'll be better. I parked at the street parking where you pay on the meter. I heard there's free parking in the back structure where there's Macy's. read more

Erol, you are amazing! We stopped here on our way home to Temecula to get a juice, and get out of traffic for a min. Quick service, my toxin was made just right, and had some awesome conversation! Thanks again! read more

Nekter Juice Bar - Best toxin flush ever! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Pasadena, California

FYI to anyone that orders the cleanse juices at this location. My hubby placed an order online and went to pick it up after receiving an email that it was ready for pick up. We get there and they are "all out" of juices. They wanted him to return the next day. My hubby had planned on starting the cleanse the following day so he asked for a refund instead. This could not be done by the employees either. We were informed that they didn't know how to refund him for an online order. He had to leave his name and order info and wait for the owner to send him his refund. We left very disappointed. What's the point of placing an order and be told it's ready when they don't even have the products? Then they don't even know how to give a refund! Never again. read more

This review is not only for the healthy yummy drinks but also for Jasmin who truly made this such a pleasant experience! I came in on a hot summer day having no idea what to get, and she guided me towards a great choice that was along the lines of what I was looking for and even took the time to initiate making me a sample of it! That was greatly appreciated and she is just the sweetest thing ever! The drink also ended up being super refreshing and you can literally taste how healthy it is lol, and it was delicious as well. Thank you Jasmin for being a ray of sunshine and making this a nice walk down the block today :) will love to come back for more refreshing drinks and good vibes now in the future! read more

HAIR IN MY BOWL!! First time here and tried the new Pumpkin Bowl one, half way done and found a 2 1/2 inch hair . I called to tell them, and they said I could come back and they'd make me a new one. But I'm 10mins away now. I can safely say, I won't be back. There are other better ones out there. read more

Nekter Juice Bar - HAIR IN MY BOWL!!! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Pasadena, California

Place is clean and my drink taste pretty good. Price can be high but, the drink itself is pretty big. Really not much else to say besides the cashier/barista always seem to be in a bad mood every time I come here. Please don't come here with expectation you are making a healthy decision. There is a good amount of sugar in all of their drinks. read more

Me and my sisters gave juice spot' right Next door to my house !!!!!! It's so fresh love it read more

Nekter is very good but at least this location has recently given us half the portion of the acai smoothie part. This happened twice in the past month. Previously they were very consistent in making the smoothie bowl have a decent amount of food. But now it feels like they're rationing food or something! Kind of a rip off... Update: we just went back and explained the situation. They were gracious enough to remake our order. read more

Soooo disappointed nearly ten dollars for a small and what a waste of money I called serval times today so I could come back to have it remade but no one is answering the phone My drink is watered down, literally takes like milky water I've had this drink several times before and this is by far the worst tasting ever Highly upset and hoping they pay attention to not adding a bunch of ice to these expensive drinks I could've made this at home, not wasted my money and it would taste better read more

Standard açaí bowl. Size is on the smaller side and kind of pricey. I got their strawberry banana bowl since I was craving for something refreshing. They also give us this ginger shot which taste very healthy! Staff was super friendly and nice to accommodate my slight change of the bowl read more

Ugh... I hate having to downgrade a place I've re viewed but I kind of have to. First I want to say that their menu of fresh made drinks has slightly changed but all still quite delicious. My issue has been last couple of times I went there, both to pick up cleanses, and it wasnt a great experience either time. The first one I had ordered a couple cleanses online to pick up in store. I ordered about days before my pick up. When I called to see if it was already they told me that they had no order for me. I had an email confirmation so they asked me to bring it in. I went there and they looked and looked and didnt see my order. So the person who was helping me was nice enough to tell me that she'll just make me one. She also took my name and information and had me forward my email confirmation to them at the store. About 3 weeks later I got a call from someone "reminding me" to pick up my cleanse because it's been sitting there for a long time. I told her I already got it weeks ago. Okay. Kind of weird, but not that big a deal. It has been a few weeks since that incident, I had ordered another clease online and went to pick it up this morning. There were only 2 people working there. I literally got a look from the person kind of at the front like she didn't want to bothered... yeah its 7:30 am and the store is empty, c'mon! It took a couple minutes for her to wash up and come over. I didnt get greeted, She just walked over. I told her I was there to pick up my clease I ordered. It took a couple minutes to put it all together, the weird thing was once she brought it over, she just said, "sign here". So I opened up the bag and looked inside to make sure there was one of each bottle and that each was labeled. It was but no cleanse info sheet.... okay whatever. I signed and said, "here you go". She took the paper and pen and turned around and walked to the back. She didn't say a thing to me. I stood there for a while not sure if I was done or not, but she didn't return and I could hear her talking to someone else. So I just turned around and left. I know I'm being a little bit picky, but I think she could have said something... anything to acknowledge the trasnsction is complete. Like, "Thanks" or, receipt is in your email" or You're good to go" or anything really. What an awkward person to be interacting with customers. read more

This is just a review on the ginger shot. My overall experience was perfectly pleasant as well though. I checked in to get a free ginger shot. I really liked it (but I have to acknowledge that I am a ginger super fan) I also love the ginger/immunity shots from Pressed - this has similar strong ginger spice. What I like more about this one is that there is more of the fresh ginger fiber in it. So if you're a huge ginger fan like me, I would highly recommend! read more

Amazing service, thanks to make my order always on time , great atmosphere great people who always smile,sometimes i see people appreciate them , thanx again read more

Placed an order for pickup for an açaí bowl, showed up at the quoted pickup time, and the bowl was lukewarm. The açaí had melted into a smoothie. They had prepared my order and simply left it on the counter to melt for 15min. read more

Finally a fairly priced smoothie place! Cool options and I love that they have fruits like Dragon fruit! Excited to try their other options. There are tables inside, but I like to come outside onto the open patio area because there are some nice chairs and shade. I use the Wifi from Corner Bakery which is right next door. read more

I ordered the Pink Flamingo smoothie drink and it was yummy. I will definitely come back and try their other menu options such as acai bowls, juices and smoothies. I came in the afternoon time around 1pm during the weekday and there wasn't a wait. The cashier was friendly and provided her recommendations. Overall, I had a good experience here. Street parking (pay by pay station) is available and there was plenty of room to park. read more

Tried it twice. Didn't like it twice. The first time I tried it was at the Anaheim Taste test, where I sampled about 10 different juices but didn't find one I really enjoyed. The second time I tried it was was with a couple of friends. The cashier seemed like he hated his job. Ordered the banana berry and the greenery. The banana berry was watered down and you could barley taste the distinct fruits because they all masked each other. The greenery was okay in taste, but the smoothie was room temperature which threw off the entire drink. http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/nekter-juice-bar-pasadena?select=tZ7PvbXaPL_n5YMF0KkX7g http://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/nekter-juice-bar-pasadena?select=tZ7PvbXaPL_n5YMF0KkX7g#IqvQhBhpCVdHZ-G57XknVg Learned my lesson.

Hesitant to come here after some bad experiences at other Nekter's but wow my mind had changed We got two açaí bowls which were packed with flavor, fruits, and tasted delicious! I found street parking just outside but there is a lot you can go to as well. The store has indoor seating and a beautiful outdoor setting as well with tables and sofas. read more

Bomb smoothies and juice, love coming here before class or work. Very clean facility as well

Paid 12 dollars and waited 15 minutes for this watered down Mango Acai bowl. Literally, no mixing of the fruit needed because it sunk right into the melted acai. Save your money and go to the Acai place down the street. read more

Nekter Juice Bar - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Pasadena, California

Nekter has the best smoothies. This place is out of the way and I drove past other juice bars to get a drink from Nekter. That being said, they need more staff on a Saturday afternoon. You can expect your drink to take 20-30 minutes to be ready. There were numerous annoyed faces waiting at the tables while I was there. I mean it was busy. People didn't stop coming in. My recommendation for the owner or manager is to put more people on. As of right now, this isn't a place I'd go to if I have something to do besides relax. The employees were friendly and helpful. read more

You know when you get that tickle in your throat and you start to feel achey. You've got to catch it before it gets worse and turns into a cold. So I know what to do, get a fresh juice with tons of ginger. I was at Macy's and decided to get a drink while I was out. I was anticipating super high inflated South Lake prices and was pleasantly surprised ! I ordered the hummingbird with extra ginger and the server was really kind to me and hooked me up with the right amount of ginger. The drink went down really well and all the ingredients tasted fresh. For a dollar less than Whole Foods, I say that this place has the right idea. They have a great selection and constant flow of juice patrons. My next juice will come from this place for sure !!! Can't wait to go back !! read more

Nekter Juice Bar - Detox with crazy ginger - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Pasadena, California

Great selections of natural blends and very friendly customer service! They helped me decide what I wanted.

Multiple times now I have picked up from this location & my order is wrong. I always add protein powder to my bowl & this is the 4th time it's missing. It wouldn't be as big of a deal if it didn't cost extra to add it. I'm just giving you guys an extra dollar every time for nothing at this point. Last time I reached out I got no response which really goes to show how little this location cares about customer service. So disappointing. read more

Went here on Friday morning the girl was really helpful loved the service. I got a mango delight. I went there a few hours later wanted another mango delight large this time. It was around 5pm the guy that was in the back took an extremely long time. The other guy went in clocked in poured him self a cup of juice his pant were half way down his rear and proceeded to go out side. I asked for the manager and he or she was not working. If u go I suggest to go in the morning the girls are more attentive. So for that reason I gave 3 stars. Because of the girls. read more

Awesome customer service at Nekter car! Erol is super sweet and very friendly and knowledgeable. The wellness shots are fantastic! Açaí bowls amazing!! Thanks Erol! read more

Came in for a Ginger shot, best ginger shot I've ever had. Made fresh daily and nice customer service as well!

Used to come here for smoothies until they started wasting my time and stealing my money. Recently came here and ordered a large "Health Nut" smoothie for $12.65 and I received a milky unsweetened slush. It seemed that ingredients were left out and the ratios completely botched. It was inconvenient to have to return to the store after walking all the way back to my car, but I wanted a refund since it was undrinkable! The girl at the cash register pushed some buttons and said I would receive a refund back to my credit card in a couple of days. That was a week ago and I don't expect it's really coming through. Save yourself the hassle -- There is a Jamba Juice on the same block and I have never had a problem with consistency there. read more

They have the best bowls I've every tasted! Everything in the bowl is always so fresh and ripe. It's the perfect pick me up on the weekend.

Considering I have been to other locations of Nekter and loved it, the location in Pasadena was disappointing. I walked in to the store being the only customer and saw three workers talking in the back, none of which acknowledged me. A few more people came in behind me and then a lady finally took my order, though she was nothing near nice or helpful. I then wait for about 25 minutes as everyone behind me was getting their order before me, it took me getting up and asking about my order for them to even start working on it. The bowl itself was pretty good besides being melted. I will not be going back here unless the customer service and efficiency is improved. read more

What's not to love about Nekter!? So many great choices for a great healthy lifestyle. I feel like anything you order from here is really good but i like getting fresh pressed juices from here. The greenie is my favorite, earthy and full of so many good things my body needs daily. Location is convenient and there is outdoor seating. The atmosphere and decor inside Nekter is also very aesthetically pleasing. read more

Fantastic service! Order the greenie and its yummy. Make sure to park in the parking, not the street.

Waited over 30 minutes for my PB health nut. Never again. And I walked in to order it too.
