You cant compare this location with University City. A few months ago I wrote a review for University City and it was the best salad ever but then I came to the Ardmore location twice and I was dissapointed both times. The portions are smaller, the ingredients dont look as fresh, the place looks dirtier and the service is bad. I cant believe that when you order a $12 salad to go they dont even give you a plastic bag for your salad, they just hand you the container. Also today their Level up service was down so I had to pay with cash and could not accumulate the rewards for my purchase. If you want a great experience at Sweetgreen make sure you visit University City and not Ardmore. read more

Sweetgreen is great for intense clean-livers and veggie types. Not so much for me. I love salad and will happily have only that for lunch but Sweetgreen's offering just didn't fill me up. I was desperate for a dressing that could fatten the salad up and give it some extra flavor -- a blue cheese dressing...maybe a ranch -- but the only varieties offered were oil or vinegar based. Sweetgreen also recently got rid of soda pop which could bother some folks who want to be a little nutritionally naughty. After my $10 lunch left me hungry, I went home and made a co-jack grilled cheese sandwich. read more

My absolute worst experience at a fast casual restaurant restaurant! I waited in line this evening for about 15 mins and still no one took my order. For context, there were only 3 people in front of me and also 4 people on the floor working. I was looked at by all of them but was not acknowledged! I'm accustomed to Sweetgreen's service being impeccable as I usually go the center city location on 18th & Chestnut. I ultimately walked out a very disappointed customer probably never to return. This was a incredibly bad experience. If I could give half a star I would. read more

Haven't been here much since their salads are way overpriced, but I was missing the yogurt with chocolate chips topping, so I went back a few weeks ago for the first time in probably a year. Experience was fine. I've been back twice since, just for yogurt, and both times the place has been gross. Crumbs still on tables, floors unswept, toppings bar area messy. It's just really unpleasant to eat there. The staff is also hit or miss. Some are friendly and generous, others barely give you the time of day. This place needs some serious customer service training, primarily focusing on cleanliness. In North Carolina, food establishments are graded on their cleanliness and must post their grade publicly so customers can see it. Most places are in the 95-100 range. Sweetgreen would get a 60 and go out of business. read more

Best guilt-free comfort food! Filled me up and gave me energy all day. Sweetgreen is a lunchtime favorite.

I have been here around 5 times since they opened and I must say that that they are consistent - which is half the battle with most restaurants in the Philadelphia area. Their service is generally good and their food is fresh and delicious. Even though they are revamping their loyalty card program - I remain pleased. However when I was there last the yogurt machine broke down. Bummer. So I will be back to taste their frozen yogurt. read more

I visited Sweetgreen today for lunch and I don't know if I'm imagining it but I believe they made their to-go salad containters smaller. I ate the entire thing in one sitting and could never do that before. The container appears smaller too. If I can only get one meal out of the salad, then it's too pricey for me! Has anyone else noticed that? read more

Sweetgreen is on my repertoire of workday lunch options as a maker of quick, healthy, and generally tasty salads. If you've been to any salad joint, you'd be pretty familiar with Sweetgreen's set-up. They offer a menu of signature salads, and of course, patrons are welcomed to customize their own. Ingredient highlights include: * Raw kale * Awesome roasted broccoli * Roasted tofu * Roasted sweet potatoes * Baked falafel * Complimentary, delicious wheat bread! Everything else is pretty standard. Additionally, Sweetgreen sources a nice list of local veggies, meats, and cheeses, which is always good to see. One curious menu item is their raw beats. I love beats--love 'em raw, love 'em cooked, love 'em pickled. But of the lot, raw are clearly the worst, and Sweetgreen ONLY HAS RAW. Quite simply, raw beets are hard to eat with a recycled fork, which brings me to my next point... Listen, Sweetgreen, I appreciate your recycling efforts, but your forks don't work. They're worthless. They're dull, they bend, they break. Very annoying. I actually brought my own fork last time I went to Sweetgreen. No one should have to do this. Another thing to be aware of is that an in-house order will be significantly bigger than a to-go. It's just how Sweetgreen rolls. As a healthy workday lunch option, Sweetgreen is solid. That's about it. read more

Nothing new here. I'm sure they'll do fine with the stay at home stroller set, but there is truly nothing remarkable about this place. The interior is plucked out of a cookie cutter "trying to look hip and modern" design guide. The truth is it lacks any real character. It's essentially a great excuse for mainliners to drop $8-$13 on a salad you could make for $2. It's also a very slow process so be prepared to wait. The staff is all high school kids who couldn't even answer the simplest question like, "what makes the organic ceaser, organic." Like I said, I'm sure they'll do just fine, given their demographic and location, but I had to stop myself from yawning while munching on my salad. The ingredients appear to be fresh and it's nice that they make it in front of you but I don't think I'll ever eat there again. read more

This place is FAB! Everything is fresh and delicious! One other great thing...all their cutlery is compostable! The spoons, knives, forks! One downside is the seating. There's not enough of it. They get a big lunch rush. So, if you want to sit and talk - that probably isn't the best time of day to go. Nothing wrong other than that! I'll be visiting them again! Yummmmm read more

This place is like Saladworks on steroids. * Awesome ingredients * Changes with the seasons * Local ingredients * Great starter recipe salads * OK prices * Nice atmosphere for essentially a "fast food" place read more

Okay, t'll admit this is a "go to" place for those times we just can't face making dinner. The salads are really good, and it feels good that they support local producers. The 3-star review is purely service related. To start with, the people behind the counter can't seem to move customers through the line. I mean, come on, everything is pre-cut. All they're doing is throwing scoops of stuff into a bowl and tossing it with dressing. It really shouldn't take as long as it does to get a salad. Also, our last couple of visits, I've been ordering my meal as a wrap. Talk about disaster. The staff are simply incapable of assembling a wrap that doesn't fall apart at first bite. read more

For Christmas, I received a $25 Sweetgreen gift card, so I treated a friend to lunch. I got the Guacamole greens with shrimp & a lemonade. My friend got the Caesar reggiano with chicken, and a bottled water. The bill was $25.97, but when I reached for an extra dollar, the cashier said, "don't worry about it." Wha?! Very cool. My salad was huge & delicious (and I ate it ALL)! The lemonade was good, too, although next time I'll ask for extra ice. Thanks, Sweetgreen! I'll be back, and will spend my own money next time! read more

Sweetgreen is a go-to for a quick, healthy meal. The salads can be inconsistent (amount of ingredients, amount of dressing, availability). However, the fact that Sweetgreen offers such unique ingredients makes up for its downfalls. Try adding the soba noodles and Parmesan crisps to any salad. You won't be disappointed! The seed mix is another favorite...use as one of the four ingredients in a custom salad. read more

Every time I go to this Sweetgreen, there is a problem. They are out of bread. They don't have chicken or rice ready. I am there at dinner time. Surely there is a way to have the restaurant run properly. I have eaten in Sweetgreen in other places and they are great. This location is badly managed. read more

this is just hands down the greatest place to exist. I am a loyal rewards member and will be for the rest of my life! the app is awesome and the salad will be ready the exact time of your request. harvest bowl is unbelievably good. Have been going here consistently for years.. only had an issue ONCE and not only was I refunded, but also given an additional free salad. Wasn't even a big issue, just missed up one ingredient. read more

Sweetgreen seriously never fails me. I am so obsessed with their salads it is unreal. Ordering online during the pandemic, it did take around 40 mins to pick up my order, but I don't even care because of how much I love their salads. If you are even considering ordering from here, do it. You will never order a salad from anywhere else. Their toppings are so unique and their greens are always so fresh. Love you guys. read more

This location was super fast, didn't skimp on ingredients, and did not overdress the salad. Very friendly employees as well.

Great high end salad! I'll definitely be heading back again! I got the kale Caesar which was very good!

Huge delicious salads. Their soup is great in the winter also. My fiance and I stumbled upon this place when it was snowing so their butternut squash soup was a warm welcome. Their salads were so big I couldn't finish mine. Great selection. Although a big pricey. Not suprised for the area it's in. read more

Ordered a salad ahead of time that said it would be ready at 7:05, wasn't ready till 7:45. No refund no discount nothing. Horrible customer service. I love sweetgreen, but will not be returning. read more

I come here often when I want healthy food and am on the main line. The Kale Ceasar has always treated me well. I recently had a Spring Caesar as well. You can make your own salad if you don't like their pre-suggested menu items. Price is a bit high for what you get, and they don't take cash. You can use an app or pay with a card only. The cash thing and the consistently long lines on the weekend are the only drawbacks. read more

Didn't know what to expect when I came here. Was meeting up with a very good/old friend and she took me here. Apparently it was opened by bunch of computer guys, its All organic, local grown, all the products, including the utensils are biodegradable. They had wraps as well as salads. You could pick from the board, or make your own. I got the beach ***, it has wasabi peas, artichoke hearts, mixed greens, arugala,it was Great! For additional .75 you could add chicken or shrimp. It is nice healthy choice, but it will set you back around $9.50 or more with drink. read more

I firmly believe you get what you pay for and on the Main Line a $10 salad isn't unreasonable! I saw the sign on the front door that clearly stated they don't accept cash. I guess if one was distracted the sign could be missed. They also reminded me of this policy as I began my salad order. I ordered the Guacamole Greens and asked for no tortilla chips and lime cilantro jalapeno vinaigrette. I added more tomatoes, cucumbers, and onions to make up for the tortilla chips and asked for lemon juice and cilantro to replace the lime cilantro jalapeno vinaigrette. It was filling and I have some left for dinner. They could have put a few more pieces of chicken in there, but overall it was a refreshing salad that was completely guilt free! read more

I loved working here until my hard work was unappreciated and I had no choice but to leave. Until they can get all of the employees to actually believe in their ethos, show accountability for their actions, and stop all of the favoritism, no customer is going to truly be happy eating here and keep coming back. Just my opinion from an ex employee who worked in CC. I have brought up many ways to improve service and was ignored. I hope they take this criticism and actually look inward for solutions that actually work for the company, the employees and the customers but in order to do that, you would have to actually listen to your employees and customers. read more

What a nice addition to Suburban Square! I had the "curry gold" salad which was just delicious ( a combination of chicken, dried cranberries, roasted beets, almonds and cucumbers). You can add or subtract items from the standard salads- I added the locally sourced organic apples which were yummy! The salads are very generous portions. Make sure you ask for "heavy" dressing. Staff is super-friendly! You can also get frozen yogurt with fresh toppings- a healthy snack if you are out shopping and don't have time for a whole meal. The location is very convenient, near the Chico's. It always seems to have a ton of customers, so they must be doing something right! read more

Man. This place is great. After TCBY closed, there weren't any places in Suburban Square to grab a quick snack while shopping. And now! Fresh unsweetened froyo and salads, with seasonal and local toppings, everything to satisfy your hunger in the most guilt-free way possible. Also, all their packaging is compostable. (Actually, all this guilt-freeness makes me feel kind of guilty... which is ironic.) When we went in for froyo, the guy behind the counter was beyond friendly, even making us a shot-sized sample of yogurt that he sweetened with agave and freshly squeezed lime. The yogurt we ended up getting - topped with apple butter, cinnamon baked apples, and chocolate chips - was tart, just enough sweet, and made with the exact right ratio of yogurt to toppings. We didn't try the salads or soups, but, yeah. I'm going shopping hungry from now on. I hear they're opening stores in University City and Northern Liberties, too! read more

Stopped here around 3:30 for one of their salads to go. Got lucky in finding a parking spot just outside. No line at that time of the day so I got my salad quickly. $9.50 is a bit pricey for a salad to go but the ingredients were fresh and the avocado ripe. The salad comes with a slice of bread and the dressing on the side or mixed in, if you like. Parking can be a challenge in this area during busy hours. read more

A recent visit to SweetGreen found me digging into my credit card instead of my wallet. What's this?!?! No cash accepted?!?! Really? Yes, it's true, leave your cash at home. There's a small sign with the word cash crossed out and the word App written in its place. They give a few reasons on the sign with the last one being "It's the future of retail". I go to SweetGreen because the food is fresh, the portions adequate and the pricing is reasonable. However there many many other places very similar who are more than happy to take ALL forms of payment. I have to say I will think long and hard before returning. It may be the future of retail, but it's the present of annoying. read more

Obsessed. Don't come here if you're looking for a cheap, processed fast good-type meal. Although they are quick, their ingredients are fresh and fantastic. They even ask you how much dressing you want. I'm not a calorie counter, but I do enjoy putting healthy things in my body. This place is fantastic. Yes, they're a little pricey. But it's worth it. The frozen yogurt is amazing too. It's delightfully tart and the topping are stellar. read more

My coworkers orders from this location during work hours. They asked me if I wanted anything. Looked at the menu in detailed and ordered the Hummus Tahina. Looks delicious. As I am putting the dressing on, I realized THEY FORGOT THE HUMMUS. Like the main ingredient to this bowl and its not in the bowl, bag, anyone else's dish, etc....... Sooooo confused and it completely ruined the bowl for me. I was looking forward to the humus with the other ingredients. Plus this place is not cheap.... I didn't want to pay $12 but I did and didn't even get what I wanted. $12 FOR KALE & A LITTLE FALAFEL (DRY & SPICY). Disappointed as hell. read more

I was back home on the Main LIne and checked out Suburban Square and was happy to see a new addition. The list of local growers got me hooked. I got a salad, which I built, and it was fresh and delicious and the people were very helpful. I talked my friend into getting a wrap so I could try that and it was just as yummy. We topped it off with lemondae and Fro yo with lots of good toppings. The prices were reasonable, the staff nice, and I liked how eco conscious they were without being too in your face about it. It is a Dc chain that is now up to 7 spots and I hope they come out to LA soon! With salads like this I might actually get in shape for bathing suit weather. read more

Nothing spectacular but not bad if you want to grab a healthyish lunch. Line can get really, really long, and the people behind the counter aren't that quick. Two salads/bowls and two drink will run you about $22. read more

My wife and I have come to Sweetgreen since it opened unfortunately it has gone downhill Our salad server literally threw the ingredients in a stainless bowl missing the bowl. When dressing she threw the ingredients into a plastic bowl about 1/4 of the salad ended up on the counter which she swept with her hand and discarded.To my surprise she waited on the next customer with those same dirty hands. The bread was stale tasted moldy and not edible. The ingredients are still fresh but the attitude of this place has changed very negative experience. read more

The food is decent but they are getting one star because of there customer service. I have tried to use my gift card there twice. They couldn't figure out how to do it! Both times multiple people tried to redeem my gift card but they couldn't figure it out. Instead I had to pay with cash and keep my gift card which apparently is unusable. Why do they sell gift cards if the employees aren't trained on how to ring them up. Now I have a $10 gift card just sitting around because no one in the store can figure out how to put it into the system. Will Definitely not be going back for this reason. read more

I love Sweetgreen! They are quick and a healthier option as far as take-out goes. I also like how they try to be organic when they can as well as looking for local ingredients first before outsourcing. The workspace appears to be clean and they offer outdoor seating which is nice on warmer days. I've been here several times since they've opened and they are frequently out of wraps around Sunday's and Monday's - therefore, I have to take one star away. At first I figured it was acceptable when they had just opened, but it is no longer... They should be able to manage their orders now and should increase their supply to meet their demand. Other then that, they're great! read more

I love love love Sweetgreen and their make your own salads. I could do without the crazy upcharge for tofu or a 5th vegetable, but it's fresh and consistent and the competition can't touch their quality. This location has gone downhill a bit since they opened, and service depends on how busy they are (like adding a random ingredient - and something I'm allergic too - needing to remake it and then doing the same thing...), but I'm so glad there's a location near by! I'm thinking about starting a campaign to bring back the spicy pickles. read more

Food is good, the place was packed at lunchtime but the line moved along quickly. Note to management - GET WIFI! When asked if there was wifi I was told that "yes, there is, but they haven't told us the password." read more

Officially done with this place. Went for early dinner and it just wasn't good. Mushy, overly green lettuce and cucumbers had weird after taste. Basically I ended up picking out the six shrimp and tossing the rest. Won't be back. read more

I absolutely love Sweetgreen. This year I got sweetgreen at least once or twice a week (or more) and their salads are honestly amazing. I love their dressing selection and everything is always super fresh. I usually get a create your own as the menu options do not normally appeal to me, however, last summer they had a watermelon-mint type salad for the season and that was bomb so if they bring that back I highly recommend. Also staff is always very nice and they move very fast so you never have to wait long! I recently graduated college and moved back to NY and Sweetgreen is definitely going to be missed :( read more
