I used to love their smoothies, but it seems they maybe stopped using the frozen yogurt as a base which was what convinced me to drive 30 min for this smoothie! Service is quick, and only take out option available. read more

Ordered a Green Nirvana with vegan protein and it is the perfect combo of tangy, sweet and creamy. Perfect hot day to get a refreshing juice from the Juice company. Love their juices! So healthy and delicious. Highly recommend! read more

Love the green nirvana. Quick service. Owen is the best smoothie maker in the Midwest!

I really didn't feel comfortable with the sign on the door. "Roosevelt students not buying a smoothing must remain outside. Thank you" Does this rule apply for single mothers getting a smoothie? Should the kids wait outside as well? It's only -12° today. How about the group of friends Rick, Ruben, Rodney, and William. Rick and Ruben have money and Rodney has a coupon for a free smoothie. William spent all of his extra money on rent for his parents apartment this month because they are out of work. Should William wait outside in the cold as well? How about the delivery driver. Should he be pressured to buy a smoothie if he goes to pick up an order? The sign is very unclear and frankly very ugly, in my opinion. It lacks detail, direction and clear purpose. I don't want to call these guys racist, I'm sure it's not a color thing. I don't want to call these guys discriminating, I'm sure it's nothing personal. Maybe they were at risk of being shut down due to high volume and Covid regulations? But even still, do only Roosevelt students not buying a smoothie spread Covid? Just can't wrap my head around this. That's OK though, because I don't bring business here. I like to make my own smoothie. Sure, from time to time it's nice to have someone make it for you. Maybe it's even nice to have a wheat grass shot. And for that, I'll be at gateway market or Whole Foods. They have a dining area you can sit and enjoy the atmosphere. If they remove the sign and offer me a free wheat grass shot AND fresh juice and smoothies, free of charge for a year, I'll definitely be coming back! Until then. Thanks for reading :) read more

The Juice Company - Insensitive discrimination? I'm sure they didn't mean any harm. But still this seems off. - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Des Moines, Iowa

First off comparing this juice to jamba is like comparing a kale salad to a Big Mac. So for the nutritionally up to speed, I stopped here while traveling through the Midwest to California as fresh pressed juice tends to determine my route. This place is legit! Daily pressed organic local! Doesn't get much better. You can try all they have plus create your own unique combos. I did a greens mix, blueberry pineapple and a carrot orange although I opted to wear that one. So if you are looking for REAL NUTRITIONALLY LOADED FRESH PRESSED JUICE, then you found it. read more

I stopped here the other day to get a quick smoothie for my drive to altoona. I asked about the peanut butter and jelly smoothie, and they people behind the counter recommended that i try it. It tasted just like a PB and J and it blew my mind. They are able to add extra protein and the pricing is good. Cant wait to go back! read more

The Juice Company - Juice - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Des Moines, Iowa

The 'menu' (scribbled chalkboard) doesn't specifically itemize exactly what's in each smoothie, so if you need to avoid something, you can't tell which drinks are safe without asking. So... I just got a carrot juice. It was not freshly juiced, but came out of plastic containers in their fridge. It was bitter, leading me to think they don't bother peeling or maybe even scrubbing the carrots before juicing them. read more

First of all, The Juice Company is amazing! They have a huge menu, but nothing is set in stone. They'll mix or change any item to suit your tastes or dietary needs! Today I had a piña colada since I was at an outdoor, sunny party. ~Yes, I like piña coladas, getting caught in the rain, not all that into yoga, yep I have (at least) half a brain.~ The drink was flavorful and each ingredient had a main role to play. I had a chance to speak with Sylvia, the owner, about their super fresh and often locally sourced ingredients. I had no idea how many of the foods they use were able to be produced and purchased nearby. She also told me about their soups in addition to the soup fasts. Apparently a soup fast has the same calories as a juice fast and is great for those who feel like they must eat and can't just do a drinking fast. Of course they have juice fast juices as well as all of the ones on the board. She was so insightful and at the end of talking with her I not only felt informed, but proud to have a business like this in our community! They clearly really care about the people here as well as local businesses! It's 100x better than any Jamba Juice or similar national chain. This is the real deal, with real ingredients and a great asset to the state! Add to that the fact of me now being a little addicted after having so many mind blowing drinks from here, and you can bet this will be a stop on the way to or from work most days...or for lunch. Maybe I'll just move in, you'll find me among the wheat grass. read more

This is still one of my fave spots in town to stop for a treat! I love the smoothies here! My fave is the Peanut Butter and Banana lite! It's mind bogglingly good and is a total meal replacer! I also love some of their more fruity smoothies! The juice here is amazing too! I'm not much for wheat grass shots but the fresh squeezed OJ, it where its at! The staff here is always super nice, they have indoor and outdoor seating, a clean bathroom, and hey they even have Cliff bars, and fruit snacks! Yep the whole gang is covered here! Miss walking here on summer days, with best buds! read more

This place is DELICIOUS we went there for a yelp elite event, got caricatures, AND AMAZING SMOOTHIES AND FROYO! - My 12yo I took my 4 older kids for smoothies and we all loved ours! Not one of us was disappointed, which is saying a lot. We got chocolate frozen yogurt, a chocolate/vanilla smoothie, 2 Chocolate Berry smoothies, and a Green Nirvana. It was all so good! They also have fresh juices and other goodies. There is a nice padio in the back and a big parking lot. Employees were nice and helpful when choosing what to order. And offered suggestions, and told what there fav smoothies were. (Caricatures are not always there) read more

Great customer service, the drinks taste incredible and there's never to much of a wait! The design inside is colorful and they have some chairs for you to sit at while you wait. One of the best smoothie places in Des Moines 10/10 would recommend read more

Super nice people it sucks they don't sell half gallons, I can never get thru a full gallon before it goes bad...

I've heard so many good things about this place. My friend has gone here with various ailments (read: hangovers and needing to get those bowels to work properly) and gotten recommendations from the staff about what to get. I get fairly frequent migraines and she knew someone who went here and got a recommendation even for that! I was sold a pile of lies (though I acknowledge they may have been oversold). The staff barely acknowledged us when we arrived and when asked about headaches, the staff just said anything will probably help. Everything looked fairly generic and one smoothy had a warning on it for non smoothy drinkers. I steered clear of that one and got one with a mix of fruit and veggies. For the price, it was incredibly underwhelming. I feel like I could make the same at home and save $6. I didn't feel like it was anything special and bonus, it gave me a terrible migraine. I guess if you like overpriced juice or are willing to brave the smoothy that is warned against even on their own menu, this is the place for you. read more

I had the wonderful opportunity to visit this place through a Yelp event! (wink, wink) I had zero idea about this places area, location, ambiance, or that even existed entirely. I am not from the area so this was a very new-new experience for me. One, I will add, I was very happy to fall into! SERVICE: I am not...100% if I can review the service completely unbiased. I was welcomed pleasantly and helped with great efficiency & sincerity...but...I was also there as part of a Yelp event...so... There is always that hint of 'they know I'm reviewing them, right?' Lol If we omit that though, and based on speaking with others, no one else has experience anything other than great service from this establishment; so I will stand by my original thought of, 'this place is very welcoming!' SMOOTHIE: I have had a bit of a sweet tooth lately so I ordered a chocolate, peanut butter shake. It was BEAUTIFUL - both in the cup & in my tummy! The shake was the perfect blend of sweet but not 'CAVITY-COMING!' The peanut butter tasted natural in it. It tasted fresh, nutty - not oily/sugary like the bulk cheap peanut butter. The chocolate was good to give that sweet but, again, didn't overpower it. It was all just perfectly blended with a nice chocolate drizzle. It really hit spot (in fact, I probably could have gotten a larger one, haha!) FUN ASIDE: One little thing that I feel necessary to add was this company's passion for local sources and organics. Since this was an event, I had the great opportunity to hear the owner speak briefly about their business. I was blown away by their dedication to using local, organic farmers to help produce their products. Her explanation of not only the processes, but the individual products & ingredients was just like their smoothies; refreshing. It is nice to know establishments try to promote local/organic materials and a healthy lifestyle...but it's so much more punctuated when you are able to hear them speak about their passion for it. It was awesome. I will definitely go back...and try their location in Ankeny!! read more

I've had a smoothie here twice now and both have been great! Their menu is extensive and there really is something for everyone, whether you're looking for something sweet, nutrient packed, filling or health conscious, every single choice is made with great ingredients and zero filler crap. They do juice and soup cleanses too! Thus far I've tried the piña colada smoothie (tastes just like the real deal sans alcohol), and the mango pineapple. If you get a smoothie here, you can let it melt and it won't turn into that creepy, foamy mess that you often get with Jamba Juice (who puts sherbet in their smoothies - yuck!). The employees are really nice, the shop is clean, and you can take your smoothie outside to sit on the back patio if you wanna hang for a bit. I love the location because it's close to my house and other stops that I like, and is really convenient if you need to get something to go before taking 235 somewhere else. read more

I wish I went by this location more often. I really enjoy the juice drinks. They are super filling and easy to devour. I have had a couple different ones. The super juice was the last one I tried and enjoyed the flavor and healthy boost. If you're near the Roosevelt shopping our the Playhouse, stop in and have a drink. read more

We were passing through Des Moines at breakfast time on a cross-country trip, and this was the only smoothie place that we could find open as early as we were coming through. Despite being the only ones in the store, we were not greeted when we came through the door, and when we mentioned it was our first time there, we were disappointed to be met with silence rather than any recommendations or questions. The smoothies were just alright. Basically one or two fruits blended with soft-serve yogurt. Nothing wrong with them, but the flavors showed the same lack of initiative as the employees. For $6 apiece, I'd love a smoothie experience more on par with Tropical Smoothie Cafe or even Jamba Juice. One additional note. When we arrived at the store, it had a pervasive and pungent foul odor throughout. If my nose was calibrated properly, I would identify it as spoiled dairy. Given the significant quantity of flies circling the garbage can near the front door, my guess is that the trash had not been taken out the night before and we were smelling yesterday's yogurt. For this reason alone, we wouldn't go back. We wouldn't have ordered at all save for the proximity to the freeway, our fatigue, our unfamiliarity with Des Moines, and the lack of options at that hour. read more

The best juice and smoothie place around! Way better than Jamba Juice and Smoothie King! read more

The Juice Company - Mean green/ green hornet juice - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Des Moines, Iowa

Came here for the first time recently because I wanted to find some fresh juice and smoothies. I love the decor inside. It's bright, vivid and filled with growing wheatgrass on the shelf, along with an abundance of fresh fruit on the counter. Ordered a dairy-free strawberry smoothie, along with a dairy-free strawberry banana smoothie for my partner. It was really tasty and I would come back again. It's very refreshing to have a place here in town that cares about 100% natural drinks. Next time, I want to try the fresh juices along with some of the other unique smoothies (e.g ones with peanut butter) read more

Pretty good, local juice store. I went here for the wheat grass shots after work. I had been there twice on my way home from work. On both of my visits, I had the wheat grass shots, and they were OK. Both times the staff just reached into the refrigerator and pulled out a container of wheat grass juice for the shots. I was really disappointed that the wheat grass shots were not freshly juiced. My only other experience with wheat grass was at Fresh Cafe, who juices their shots on-demand. So, I originally was planning to give this place a (2) star rating, but I decided to try this place out in the morning instead of the evening. On my morning visit, I was pleasantly surprised. My wheat grass shot was still poured from a contain from the refrigerator, but the wheat grass was much fresher. I spoke with the owner, Sylvia, who said that they do juice wheat grass fresh throughout the day but stop towards the evening. I also tried some of their own juice recipes: mean green juice and green hornet juice. Both were good but the mean green juice is more intense. I also really like their business hours. They open at 7:30 AM during the week so I can get my wheat grass fresh in the morning before work! Good place for wheat grass. If you want really fresh wheat grass, go during the morning or daytime. read more

Hudson Koch is the most amazing, outgoing, friendly, employee and he goes above and beyond to make every experience a good one. I would recommend giving him a raise, as he is an extremely valuable member of your team, and the friendliest employee at the store in my humble opinion. My thoughts of the store would plummet if Koch was let go from the staff. read more

My wife and I found this place online, and we were not disappointed. Between the large variety of options, add ins, and flavors, you're sure to find something you like. The young gal behind the counter was very courteous when we made it known we'd never been there. She was very gracious and patient with us as we changed our minds a couple of times and was even great about letting us know what options we had. Had she not told me about the "lite" options (aka banana instead of yogurt), I may not have been as satisfied. The lite smoothie is absolutely delicious. At $5 for a 16oz smoothie ($6 for 24oz), it can be a little pricy, but it's not out of line with other fresh smoothies or healthy snack options. We'll definitely be back. read more

Holy cow - what is in these horrible "smoothies"?? I ordered a Blueberry, assuming it would taste like Naked's "Blue Machine" or a Jamba Juice's "Razzmatazz" (legit California smoothies) but what I got was a disgusting milkshake. Not sure if they use ice cream and milk, or frozen yogurt, but it's another sad example of "gouped up" Des Moines-style. Totally gross. Avoid at all costs. read more

Easily accessible just off I-235 and right next to some of your favorite stops. Free large parking lot behind the building and a patio entrance with lots of patio seating. My kids loved the chocolate peanut butter smoothies. I created a custom strawberry lemonade smoothie and it was tasty and refreshing. read more

Just bought a 7.50 juice. I've been drinking this raw juices for 8 years. This is the first juice bar I've been too that doesn't make it in front of you. When oh drink it you understand why. They CLEARLY diluted the drink I had with water. Bad business. Make them fresh for your customers, build credibility read more

Love The Juice Company! Was introduced to this place when I moved down to Des Moines and been coming back ever since! Its located in a great little spot with the shops of 42nd street, walking distance for me, a great stop to quench that thirst/hunger and cool off from the summer heat! Lots of great healthy options and a few less healthy options. My favorite is probably the Strawberry Mango Lite or one of the other Lite options-made without dairy! Seems like they are always busy, but never along wait! Shop is very inviting and even has some outdoor seating in the back. Counting down the days where I can walk and get my favorite treat again! read more

I think the owner of this place should spend more time offering good fresh juice instead of defending a terrible product on yelp. My review stands as is....the juice I purchased was watery and flavorless, definitely not made the same day. The owner claims they pre-make juice every day? That means they must toss out a bunch of unpurchased juice at the end of every day? I know few companies who would toss money in the trash every day instead of reusing it when no one would know.....but even if they do toss it out, that's really wasteful. read more

I'm hesitant to write this considering the owners attitude towards customers. I'm in the service industry and the way you get repeat customers is to have a good quality product and exceptional customer service. They have neither. I was in this establishment on 6/20. I have been ordering a gal of juice per week. Saturday I ordered it again with 2 other beverages. The 2 beverages were the same yet when tasted they were completely different. Mine was soooooooooo sweet that I through it out. A lady who seemed to run the place was there. I wanted to complain but didn't feel it would do any good. This person was rude to her staff and never once looked at any customer in the eye nor did she acknowledge them in any way. No greetings, no thank you, no nothing. I will not be returning to this watered down inconsistent business. read more

Their smoothies are the best my original is strawberry pineapple smoothie. Sometimes they can be very busy. The reason of the 4 star is sometimes their frozen yogurt machine is broken ,and that is what makes their smoothies good. Another small concern is the location it's kind of small on the inside compare to how many customers they get. The workers are very respectful and they work hard. Highly recommend this place. read more

I have been here twice and tried the green smoothie with wheat grass both times. Super clean with an espresso bar next door, which I meant to try. I have to go back here in the summer to sit on the patio. As for the smoothie, it was healthy and as tasty as one would expect of a wheat grass shake. I was looking into trying their juice detox at some time in the near future. As for cons, there is no place to really sit and enjoy your juice. The atmosphere is not very welcoming. Most people seem to pick up their drinks and leave. read more

You ever feel like you need a pick me up? Or your body is just craving some natural goodness? You should stop by The Juice Company I usually order the Green Nirvana with a energy boost.

If you are looking to a do a juice cleanse, check on their website for the different options they have available! read more

Although the smoothie was pretty tasty, I was very disappointed by the service. I saw a flyer advertising juice cleansing on their window when entering the place, so I asked the person who took my order if she could tell me more about it. She passed me off to the other woman in the store who just put seven plastic cups of different sizes filled with different colored liquids on the counter and said, "This is a one day order for someone else," That's it. No explanation of what a juice cleanse program is nor what they put in the different drinks. Just four "green drinks" (her words, not mine) and three smaller fruit drinks. I felt like I was playing twenty questions just to find out more and even then, her answers were ambiguous at best. They certainly aren't going to sell people on their products/program if a customer has to pull teeth just to know what the product/program is. read more
