Everyone must had the same idea that I had when I went for lunch on Monday. It was at wound 1:30 so it was a late lunch. It was busy! The staff was like a well oiled machine! They were on it. It didn't feel like I had a long wait. I order the chicken pesto flatbread and had a sunshine shake. It was delicious. read more

I ordered the banana peanut butter flat bread!!!! Beware they cross contaminated my first one I had them remake it Because apparently when they have multiple orders for flat breads they cook them all at the same time, That is a major health and safely PROBLEM!!! They cooked a peanut butter and banana flatbread With a Chipotle chicken flatbread CHICKEN next to peanut butter??? Do not order food here There smoothies are good but would not recommend there food. read more

Sadly, we won't be back. We have always enjoyed TS but this experience just changed it for us, at least this store. The açaí bowl was not bad, but very little in the bowl for almost $10. We paid extra for peanut butter which was practically non-existent- and what tiny bit was there, stuck to the lid. The biggest issue was the cleanliness. As we sat waiting for our food, we had the chance to really look around. Not only was the floor absolutely filthy, but every table, the windows, the ceiling, the counters and everything else we could see. My husband visited the bathroom- One had no paper towels and the other was so dirty he left. The only really good spot was the lady that waited on us and she was very nice and friendly. It's sad, because Bartow needs a place like this. read more

Tropical smoothie is my favorite place to stop I am a realtor and I travel all over the state of FL. I like to stop because it's a healthy option, their food is good and love their smoothies. The one thing I have always noticed is no one looks happy to work there, it's like a ongoing joke with my family. Well today changed my opinion on all Tropical Smoothies. This store had good music and I was welcomed into the store. Everyone was smiling. The employees were enjoying doing their job. My food came out quick. No one was standing around. It's a busy location and maybe the atmosphere is why!! Way to go and thanks for being so welcoming. It was refreshing! read more

I've been coming to the Bartow tropical smoothie for months now. I've never had a problem getting the extra smoothie that is left over after making a smoothie. Today I was told that the staff is not allowed to do that I'm very disappointed as I feel like I paid for everything that is serviced and to watch the staff throw the extra down the drain when the company is charging me a dollar for whey protein and a dollar for coconut and the staff wants to throw it down the drain instead of giving me the rest. If that's the case the tropical smoothie should change its measuring system so that nothing is left. It's not costing tropical smoothie anything extra. read more

The online pick-up and curbside is a great option for people who are either on the go or do not want to go in to order their food. Unfortunately, the curbside pick-up has been a hit or a miss due to the phone lines being busy. Their Buffalo chicken wrap is a great healthier option and is honestly, bomb. I could have another. It's PLENTY of food, just the wrap and the ranch helps to cancel out the Buffalo sauce a bit. The staff was friendly when I had to walk in due to the curbside pick up "fail", but it was definitely unfortunate since I was not prepared at all to go inside. The parking lot at this location is very awkward when trying to get back out to the main road- but it works. Just be careful when backing out and when oncoming traffic is trying to pull in when you're trying to pull out. Overall, good! read more

The Tropical Smoothie franchise is a consistent go to option when traveling as there are healthy and consistent options available, at reasonable cost and with many options. What isn't consistent is the music, cleanliness and overall culture (how the employees interact with customers and each other). Case in point is this location: I wasn't sure if I was in a strip club or a healthy eats establishment due ti the thug ass rap blasting through the speakers. I don't get me wrong, I love all music and people l, but this just dose not for the brand as it is not the case n any other location that I have visited. Next is the cleanliness, the bathrooms are shared and not clean and neither is the space. It's. It dirty per say but not clean either, just good enough. If ownership wishes to receive their just reward for operating a business which offers great options, perhaps looking at the customer experience is a place to start and then start counting the money as people flock in to the space rather than the employees making it whatever they want..... who knows, perhaps no one cares about the $? Anyway, thank you for the good food and smoothie, no thank you for the strip club vibe. Hope this helps to bring things into EXCELLENCE and out of JUST GOOD ENOUGH. read more

Best place i have ever tried! if you want a healthy but sweet treat, then get the mocha madness with white chocolate! i definitely recommend Jay here. he is the one who recommended this drink to me and oh my heavens, best drink i have ever had!‼‼ read more

poor service. does NOT do curbside. waited and walked in only to be told by a girl that "their curbside is down." what a dumb response. it's literally walking out and therefore cannot be "down." very incompetent. read more

The thai chicken wrap here is amazing! Ordering this along with the acai berry smoothie is a delicous & healthy option here in Bartow! read more

The food and smoothie were good but no one was wearing masks. I won't be back for awhile.

I loveeee the orange ginger glow!!!! Its the only thing I like, and they got rid of it!!! So disappointed.

I work in Bartow, so I have been going to TSC for 2 years, and I enjoy this place. Never to crowded, the new ordering online systems works, and I can get in and out. Staff looks clean which is a plus always. They just hired a few young kids who you have to coach. Polk County doens't have that much in ref to "legit" smoothie spots so enjoy. read more

They have updated the interior since the photo. The smoothies are delicious. Tried the chicken caprese pressed sandwich and it was ok, like maybe 3 bites of chicken for the "wich"and one of the pieces was so tuff i couldn't bite a piece off of the chunk. read more

Food and smoothies were great! Customer service was terrible! Lady at the cash register looked miserable as hell!

Husband and I got the WORST case of food poisoning here driving home to West Palm after a day in Lakeland. Staff and owner seemed indifferent when we called them about it. reported them to health board. read more

I visited this TS with my daughter. Staff seemed poorly dressed and I was unimpressed with the overall look of the interior (I can't put my finger on it but it just didn't look polished like other TS's I've been in). Food was ok. read more

Whenever I'm in the area on business I try to stop in for a smoothie. I've had great experiences, but sometimes the staff can be a little rude (they have a demeanor that suggests they don't want to be there). The buffalo chicken wrap and the king Caesar wrap (when I've ordered them) have been very fresh and filling. Overall, fairly priced and worth a visit! read more

Love their smoothies and options. Good price for the size you get compared to other smoothie joints. My new fav sandwich is their chicken pesto flatbread it's extremely delicious. And as far as this particular location they were very fast with the service! I don't think I've ever been in and out as fast as this trip read more

I just stopped in on my way down to west palm; usually the food quality at tropical smoothie is so-so but the chicken at this one was sooo yummy :) and I loved my mango smoothie. I was pleasantly surprised :)) read more

Good food, but restaurant is extremely noisy when the blenders are working. I cannot have a conversation with others in my party.

Customer service was great and to top it off the smoothies are amazing. Peanut butter chocolate banana is one you must try you won't be disappointed. read more

Very upsetting when local rules 'override' franchise guidelines. My family and I stopped by while driving thru town. Wanted to order 5 smoothies and 5 sandwiches. We're we're told "we are closing in 10 minutes and we already shut the oven off - we can only make smoothies". And then had the nerve to rush us out the door - at least three employees gave us dirty looks!!! Needless to say - we had been driving for 3 hours and wanted something 'healthy' to eat since we still had another hour until our destination. Got McDonalds next door. Thanks for nothing! read more

Is there a manager around? No ice no soda, fish taco served w no sauce and very very little fish to b found...smoothie ready a long time after meal was ready ....xtremely disappointing meal ... $19.67 wasted. read more

NEVER AGAIN!!! Will I ever step foot in that place again. The employees were super rude. I placed an order over the phone. When I came to pick it up, I walked up to the register and the sales associate didn't acknowledge me . When I said hello I place an order for Brandy. She looked for the order and while rolling her eyes at me and says, " I don't have an order for Brandy...Just Randy." That order was completely wrong, but I wasn't annoyed with that it was the cashier who was. I couldn't figure out why, so asked her did I do something to make you mad. She accused me having an attitude. I will admit..I flipped and I cursed...she then preceded to scream at me and act if she was going to actually attack me and wanted to fight. When I asked to speak to a manager she told me he wasn't there, and was happy that he wasn't. What a shame I have been to a lot of Tropical Smoothies and just love it. I suggest NEVER EVER go to the Bartow location until management gets there employees under control. read more

Went to this store last night, cashier was very rude and told us she had turned off oven 5 minutes ago and it was only 7:38pm and they close on door at 8pm. Several other people were in line also I ask if she was going to serve them since they are here too, she rudely said I guess and took my order, telling me there was no bananas for smoothies but counter had 5 banana's laying there? I received my food to go and when I arrived home the ultimate had no bacon and was thrown together with two pieces of meat. My daughter peanut butter flat bread had honey poured all over top and only half of bread had peanut butter and bananas? I daughter buffalo chicken wrap was not that at all and we said no tomatoes and they were on there! Our smoothies all 4 had to be thrown away because we were not sure what they were but we eat at the one in Lakeland 2 times a week and know what they should taste like and wasn't anything like this! Beware of this store, not friendly nor good. Also I felt a little discriminated against since she gave other people there food first. read more
