    Not the best Nekter Juice Bar in San Antonio. That title goes to the other location in Timberwood Park, but since this Nekter Juice Bar was much closer to my hotel during my stay in San Antonio, it would have to make do. Luckily, it was good enough that I was willing to make multiple visits during my stay. The location here is more formidable because it's closer to most other shops whereas the other location in Alamo City would be a food desert if the plaza it was located in didn't exist. I came in to use a reward for $2 off any 24+ oz smoothie or juice. Smoothies were always my go to, but this time, I wanted to go with a juice. Which one did I go for? The Large Greenie. Large because they say "Go big or home", right? Greenie because I wanted to make sure I got enough of those nutritious greens that day. When I checked in on Yelp, I also noticed a 20% off Yelp check-in offer, a rather generous offer if you ask me. I asked if both the $2 off and the 20% could be applied, and the male cashier (Aaron?) said he'd try to make something work. I'm not sure what he did, but the $2 off reward remained on my account, and the savings ended up being more than 20%, so I paid less than expected, which was quite nice! Did the juice taste good? Not really, but I definitely wasn't expecting it to. It did taste healthy, but fresh? Hmm tough call. I thought the ingredients could have been better/fresher, but I won't speculate any further at this point. I came on National Smoothie Day for $6 smoothies, and I chose the Mango Delight, which is comparable to the Strawberry Aloha I had at the other location. Not bad, but I wish they had the Strawberry Aloha here as well. On my third visit, I went with the Recovery Juice, using the $2 off that failed to come off on my first visit. I didn't want to haggle the cashier over the Yelp check-in offer again, especially since that cashier didn't really want to be working. I mean, it's not the most glamourous job in the world, but at least show some customer appreciation why don't you?! In fact, the boys running that shop have been friendlier to me than the girls running that shop. How even?! As for the Recovery Juice itself, I don't have any different comments than what I mentioned for Large Greenie. I appreciate how the air-conditioned shop also has free WiFi, and the login info is right at the order counter. That way, I could hop onto Yelp while enjoying my drink and see what my Yelp friends are up to in sub-100 degree weather. Overall, it's not a bad Nekter. If I lived in San Antonio, I'd make this my go to unless I were to live closer to the other location. I just hope service gets better here because it can really go a long way in this day and age. Also, the day I posted this review is the same day Nekter opened its 200th location. Congrats Nekter on the milestone!

    Fresh and healthy! Shout out to a friend who introduced me to Nekter and the app. Download the app to obtain points with every purchase and get a free bowl on your next visit! I knew I wanted an açaí bowl over a smoothie.. a friendly employee made suggestions and I decided on the açaí mango bowl. Note - The mango and cashew milk is blended into açaí base which gives it a lighter hue in color. Pineapple chunks, not mango top the bowl, in addition to coconut, granola, strawberry, and banana. My friend got the açaí banana berry bowl- so pretty and colorful. You can't go wrong with the bowls and honestly I had a hard time finishing it because I was full : D Plenty of seating inside, but we decided to sit outside, chat, and enjoy our bowls.

    Great service ! The juices are so fresh ! Clean warm and friendly vibes . The owner was beyond gracious to give me and my family some recommendations to help get us over this cold !

    Coffee Kickstart
    Celeste C.

    I love Nekter but this location was not my favorite. The one in Timberwood park is the best. As soon you enter it felt like it was so dark inside and the cashier wasn't welcoming. I order my usual coffee kickstart smoothie and just by the look at it I can tell I wasn't gonna like it. They made it to sweet and added more protein than coffee. The decor is cute but still not the best location.

    An Açaí bowl and ginger shot at Nékter, Broadway, Alamo Heights

    These guys go above and beyond every time. Best smoothies I've found among 5 plus Açaí Bowl joints in SATX. They are consistent, friendly as a management and service team. The bowls have brought increased health to me, with this positive shift in my diet. Thanks Jonathan, Aaron & Adriana! KC they appreciate DoD & First Responders

    Juice to go

    Finally a solid açaí bowl/juice/smoothie spot in San Antonio! I came here on opening day, and while there were some things they need to iron out, the juice and bowl I ordered were delicious! I got The Greenie, which has kale, spinach, parsley, celery, cucumber, lemon, and red apple. The combination was super yummy and all the ingredients are freshly juiced to order. The Açaí Mango Bowl was also made to order, and generously topped with pineapple, strawberry, banana, and coconut. Employees are also super friendly and welcoming! I can't wait to come back to try all their other menu items! Also make sure you sign up via their app for their loyalty program!

    Nekter is a big chain juice bar/acai bowl spot that offers fresh ingredients, but lacks anything extra that makes me want to return. I ordered the peanut butter açaí bowl and recovery juice. Bowl: açaí blended with banana, strawberries, dates, peanut butter, and house made cashew milk. It come out super watery, like a smoothie rather than a thick bowl. The açaí flavor was not there and the peanut butter was very basic, like jiffys (not a bad thing but I expected more flavor). Also, I didn't want green apples and asked to sub with any other fruit, but they left out the extra fruit all together and just gave me strawberries and bananas. Lastly, the bowls are one size and if you can see in my pictures, the açaí to fruit to granola ratio was not worth $10. Juice: Beet, ginger, kale, orange, and celery. Smooth texture but I wish it had more orange or ginger because it was watered down by the celery juice. Overall, I will not return to Nekter. There are several açaí bowl and juice spots in the Alamo Heights area that feature better and tastier options.

    Mango Delight
    Ruthie W.

    We stopped by Nekter since we had dinner in the area. Justine had reached out to invite us. With a Yelp check in, you get 20% off. I ordered the Acai Mango Bowl and my husband had the Mango Delight. For the Mango Bowl, the mango is blended in instead of fruit on top. Everything was freshly made. Dad only had a bite to taste because he was so full. I saved some to eat for breakfast tomorrow. Grand opening is this weekend so check out this place for smoothies and acai bowls! There are 2 tables outdoors!

    I am always a bit skeptical to try juice bars because the often taste "generic" like something you can buy at the store in a freezer, but Nekter is truly fresh! I tried the dragon fruit bowl and the toxic flush juice and the were both amazing! The bowl was very smooth, fresh, and I love food with lots of textures. The juice had a fabulous ginger punch that stings the back of your throat, I love it! You can taste the freshness of all the juices. It did take a bit long but when things are being made fresh it is totally worth the wait. So glad I got to try them out, this will definitely be a frequent stop for me.

    Health Nut smoothie with peanut butter
    Kara M.

    My first time trying Nékter after my morning workout, and it was so good! Hint: there's a 20% off coupon for checking in on Yelp, and even better - your first smoothie or bowl is FREE if you download their app and sign up for their rewards program. An awesome perk to get people in the door! I opted for their Health Nut smoothie with peanut butter (you can sub almond butter for $1 more) and it was 5/5 fabulous! The perfect flavor combination for something creamy and delicious without being terribly sweet. Probably one of my favorite smoothies! The menu has all sorts of smoothies and bowls, and you can customize as needed. They are a bit pricy (you're looking at about $8+ for a small 16 oz. smoothie), but most smoothie places cost this much and if you're going to spend that much on a drink you may as well go somewhere good (or learn to re-create at home). Overall, very satisfied with my order and can't wait to visit again to try something else!

    I got the dragon fruit bowl and it was divine! It was light and refreshing and the fruit was fresh. What a great way to cool down on a hot day. The ambiance was chill and the staff was friendly. Can't wait to go back! Also not pictured but equally delicious was the Dragon Fruit Refresher. It's $2.99, but if you purchase a bowl you can get it for $1.99. That was so delicious. I wish they had a bigger size to indulge in this all day long.

    Lovely atmosphere, clean environment, clean ingredients. I got a small pink flamingo smoothie, and it was so refreshing and filling. You can taste the fresh ingredients that are used to make the smoothie in the smoothie. Or, you can just watch them make it behind the counter. The staff was really friendly. I had to wait because there were so many people in line to get their products. That was also a really telling sign that this place is good.

    Nice location nestled in midtown Alamo Heights. The inside is setup well with a half dozen tables for customers. The service was great. I ordered two smoothies, and they were ready quickly. The young man answered all my questions and was super nice. As for the menu, they have bowls, smoothies and fruit juices. I love that they offer "functional" options for the health nut in me including wellness shots of ginger or turmeric. You can add immunity, protein or metabolism boosts for $1. Tea refreshers include black tea, passion or strawberry green tea. The To Go spots includes juices and healthy food items. Nektar has cleanse programs for purchase as well. This is a great addition to the Broadway strip. PS. Download the app for freebies and frequent flyers.

I chose two scoops in a cup, one of Cappucino Chip and the other Turtle Cheesecake. They have several tables to sit at, some along a hallway and more in a back room. I took a seat and was in awe of the huge scoops given. The Cappuccino Chip had a mild flavor (I prefer it stronger) but a fair number of tiny chocolate chips. The Turtle Cheesecake had an excellent cheesecake flavor with swirls of caramel, praline pecans, and caramel-filled mini turtles. I'm usually not fond of nuts in my ice cream but I actually enjoyed the pralines. In my humble opinion, there were too few turtles. But I still loved it. If you're in the mood for a cold, creamy treat while visiting the Alamo, you'll find this to be the perfect place to visit.

It wasn't just unprofessional--it was the kind of scene you'd expect in a low-budget psychological thriller where you start wondering if someone should call for backup.

Small, crowded, and unkind is not a combination that brings us back. We'll pass next time.
