She was super friendly and even asked my name and remembered it! She explained everything that they make and why once I had told her it was my first time there. She recommended a tea because there was energy in there which I definitely needed given that I was heading to work and needed something to wake me up. She made me a tea and asked if there was a certain flavor I would want and I said I didn't really know/mind and she said she can just surprise me and make something good! and she did just that!! not sure what she made me but it was delicious!!!! I am a chocolate lover/ brownie lover so I knew I was going to go with the brownie batter shake! Both drinks together were $18 which is a little pricey but given the sizes and healthy ingredients in both, it makes sense. Overall, great service and great drinks. I recommend this nutrition/ smoothie/ tea place to anyone who is trying to lose weight/ gain weight/ maintain it but wants a delicious drink without all the unhealthy ingredients!

Ten out of ten on the concept, but I have to admit that when you compare this Cafe Equinox in OP to…read morethe Shawnee Cafe Equinox, this one does not compare when it comes to vibes. Their other location has colorful seating, artwork, with tables & chairs woven into a forest-like wonderland of plants. This one? A table. A gray backdrop. Sure there are plants, but they're a ways away and it felt more like hanging out in a midwestern garage. The other issue that has me knocking it down some stars is that this has become THE place to get warm. Sure we have our furnaces blasting in January, or a fireplace roaring, but you know that kind of late spring, humid warm? This is usually it, but I have to say I was borderline cold on my last visit. It felt clammy and more "March spring" than "May spring." Coffee is EXCELLENT from Thou Mayest, and it's hard to go wrong. Wifi was not all that strong and ran into a few issues on a video call, but is relatively sufficient for most day-to-day work items if you choose to work from here. If it's equidistant, I would say go to the Shawnee location for sure. If this is the closest one, it's not all bad, but I would love to see some real warmth and color in here to help complete the escape-winter-energy that we all need during this cold, gray stretch.

Absolutely unacceptable experience at this Tropical Smoothie Cafe location at 1360 Walnut St…read more Kansas City, MO. The African American employee, Alonna H. ("Lonni"), was shockingly rude from the second I walked in. Before I even had a chance to speak, she snapped, "If you want food, we are out." I wasn't asking for food -- I was asking for a simple cup of ice water. She then stated, "Chipotle isn't given any water out?" Instead of basic courtesy, I was met with hostility and attitude. When I calmly asked for water, she claimed they weren't giving any out. Moments later, two other customers walked in and she flat-out told them the store was closed -- which it clearly was not. It appeared she was trying to shut down early and push customers away rather than do her job. When I questioned the unnecessary rudeness, she escalated the situation, saying she "could get rude" and then proceeded to point her fingers in my face. That kind of aggressive, confrontational behavior toward a paying customer is beyond unprofessional -- it's embarrassing for the business. The only bright spot was another young Hispanic employee who was kind, respectful, and repeatedly apologized for her coworker's behavior. She showed the professionalism that Lonni clearly lacks. One employee with this kind of attitude will absolutely drive customers away and damage a store's reputation. This wasn't just "bad service" -- it was openly hostile and disrespectful. I was given the manager's number (Nikki, 816-788-3235), but no one answers. If this is the standard of service here, customers should think twice before walking in. I won't be returning.
