Stopped by Beach City Smoothies in Oceanside and it did not disappoint. Super clean setup, great…read morevibe inside, and the staff was genuinely welcoming, not just going through the motions. The smoothie itself was exactly what you want after a long day or beach session. Fresh, cold, and actually tasted like real fruit, not overly sugary or artificial like a lot of places. You can tell they care about quality. Quick service, solid options on the menu, and a relaxed atmosphere that makes you want to hang out a bit instead of just grabbing and leaving. Definitely coming back. If you're in the area and want something refreshing that actually hits, this is the spot.

Ordered the mini Madly Mango ($11) with the Cheese Bread. The acai was refreshing and the fruit…read moretoppings were decent, but the portion felt pretty small for the price. The cheese bread was actually really good and a nice side. Ordering was easy through the kiosk, and the place itself is a small shop with just a couple indoor tables plus some outdoor seating. Parking is street only. Overall, not bad, but value could be better.

I was excited to celebrate Acai Republic's 1 Year Anniversary. It was nice to see the community…read morecome together to support this cuuute little spot known for its vibrant acai bowls, smoothies, and juices. Community vibes all day!!

Cute little local place with the best Acai bowls. Gives an island vibe…read more I ordered the uppers bowl and Shaka smoothie. All made with fresh fruit. So delicious. The best Acai I've had in North County. A healthy option from the fast food. I will be coming back to try more.

The fruit in the bowl was really fresh, and the smoothie was delicious and refreshing. Everything arrived packaged really well in a stapled paper bag, which made it feel secure and kept everything intact during delivery. It's always nice when places pay attention to packaging, especially with deliveries. I was surprised that everything remained cold and didn't spill. Overall, I was really happy with the order and will definitely be stopping by in person to try more from the menu.

I love this natural store! So conveniently located off of highway 101…read more I picked up an amazing gluten free Tuna Salad Wrap to enjoy by the beach. It was packed with many veggies and the tuna was seasoned so well. So thankful they have gluten free options that taste delicious! I really appreciate that this store goes out of their way to work with small farmers to source local produce. I picked up a ripe cherimoya grown in Fallbrook to enjoy with my lunch. It did not disappoint! Next time you're looking for a good sandwich/wrap I hope you consider Cream of the Crop. Support your local businesses!

Ok there's quite a few problems I have with this place so here's a long list of my dislikes…read more -Extremely expensive with small portion sizes, not worth the price whatsoever. -They claim the juices are fresh but sit in their fridges for days. I scratched off an expiration date and found another label underneath! They just slapped a new one on to make it look fresh. -The soups are left out for at least a week and are heated at the beginning of the shifts. The heaters for the soups are turned off when the closer leaves. I was there at the opening time a few months ago and I guess one of the employees forgot to turn the heater on and I was served a cold soup. The soups are rotting and changing temperatures and they continue to serve it!!!!!! -The açaí used is not actually raw açaí berries but packets of frozen açaí which is extremely concerning for an "acai bowl and smoothie place". -As I was waiting by the counter for my bowl I heard the employees discussing a RAT ISSUE that they said had been persistent for multiple weeks!!! One of the employees told his coworker that A RAT HAD CRAWLED INTO THE REFRIGERATOR!! I'm not ashamed that I was eavesdropping on their conversation because this is ridiculous! Once the other worker noticed me listening they instantly stopped talking and started whispering to each other, then tried to pretend like had nothing happened. -Lastly, a majority of the employees are incredibly rude. When you ask for simple modifications some of them groan or complain. They expect tips for little to no effort and stare like you did something wrong even though they have a job to do. After one employee was rude to me when I asked to swap almond milk with water on my açaí bowl, I asked for her name. But after asking, she gave me a DIFFERENT EMPLOYEE'S name in order to cover herself!! (I printed a receipt and saw her real name). But, some of the employees were very nice and asked me how my day was going every time I ordered or continued conversation with me. Overall, this establishment has reached its last straw for me. I'm tired of dealing with the nonsense this place offers and am excited for it to be replaced with apartment homes in the near future. Hopefully this will bring in tourists to Carlsbad rather than waste the pretty lawn it sits on.

Located just under the Oceanside Pier; Poppin Duo has got the perfect handheld snacks when heading to the beach. They've got a variety of unique flavors for their KettleCorn.
