I'm in town for work and looked up local spots for breakfast and this place came up. Normally I'd go straight for a smoothie but since I had a coffee I decided to try the Peanut Butter crunch flatbread. It has peanut butter, granola, bananas and honey. Sounds good right? It's interesting... I think the only thing they did wrong is GRILLED the flatbread. It definitely has a taste that would go with some sort of meat but it doesn't really work for breakfast. Think smokey bbq flavor bread mixed with the filling listed above. It's edible but strange... I will say the prices seem reasonable especially for the smoothies. I'll be back later to try them at least. read more

Tropical Smoothie Cafe - Good choice of fillings... weird that the bread is grilled - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Boise, Idaho

I adore Tropical Smoothie. While it's a bit of a drive for me to go there as I live closer to The Village in Meridian, I use UberEats most days in the office to deliver a smoothie and the kale apple slaw. I love it so much I've even started making it at home. The add in's (like probiotics and vitamin C) are much appreciated for someone on the go like I am all the time. Thee drive-thru is super convenient and the staff is always friendly and patient. read more

Tropical Smoothie Cafe - I work in the office quite a bit and look forward to a healthy smoothie and a serving of the kale apple slaw. It's my all time fave! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Boise, Idaho

This place is soooooo yummy! We were having a working lunch meeting and ordered lunch here and yummmmmm!! I ordered the Turkey Bacon sandwhich and a Lean Machine smoothie. Both were superb and so fresh. The sandwhich comes with a side option, since I was getting a smoothie I knew I wouldn't eat chips/salad so I opted for fresh fruit - which I love in an option in general! The smoothie was spectacular! I forgot how much i love smoothies. It was so fresh and well blended (this is important y'all!). Best part is this place doesn't break the bank! I highly recommend. read more

Have never had a bad experience here. Food is good and smoothies are my fave. Just tried the Avocolada smoothie and it is my new favorite! Service is friendly. I usually order mobile and find the app easy to use. read more

Lol second time and these guys came out with online orders only . So unless you drive through than you don't need to go online and order , but if your walking inside they will tell you to get lost and order online. Like it only takes 30 second to order and 30 seconds to pay . Tropical is going down big time . Management must be extremely greedy and trying to save every penny on their employees. read more

Smoothies are good. Just make sure you have at least 30 minutes to spare because it takes forever to get through the drive through. Sat for 10+ minutes before I was able to move up 1 car with still 2 cars ahead of me. read more

Staff is fun and energetic so it's a good vibe. Everything tastes super fresh and delicious. I would recommend over any fast food. Go get a smoothie and a sandwich, too good! read more

Food is good, but this location always seems to take forever preparing it and moving people efficiently through the line. There have been three times now I've been in the drive thru for 15-20 minutes. read more

We were in the drive through for over 45 minutes. I went inside to use the restroom and it seemed like there was no sense of urgency with the staff. If you are going to make people wait for so long, there should be a discount, or something to make up for that. My family won't be coming back, we are very disappointed. read more

$17+ for 2 smoothies that taste like I got 1 singular strawberry and some ice blended together. Walked in, not a single worker out of 8 said anything to me or my boyfriend as we stood there for 5 minutes with no one else in line. Worst tropical smoothie I've ever been to. read more

I just picked this up like literally 10 minutes ago and this is what I open my grilled cheese to. I'm very disappointed! It wasn't even cooked! You girls in there are so lazy you don't even cook the food all the way! This place is so gross. Would NOT recommend I would give 0 stars if I could! read more

Tropical Smoothie Cafe - Grilled cheese not so grilled or cooked! Literally chunks of cheese how gross! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Boise, Idaho

See all

This place is super rad! I checked it out after hearing great things from friends and I was so glad I did! The tall ceilings, sparkling clean atmosphere, bright colors, and the various, tasty food options make this a place that'll you want to visit often! I had the All American Wrap and it was SO GOOD! It's small but a perfect size if you want to add one of their smoothies to your breakfast/lunch. I had the Triple Berry Oat smoothie with whey protein and it was so tasty (84 carbs is high for a smoothie, but it works great after a tough workout)! I'd highly recommend Tropical Smoothie Cafe! read more

I have been to several different TSC locations & this is my fav! However I have not been to all Boise locations... Their food is great & the service is fast, even when they're busy- they don't seem anxious or frustrated & I appreciate that. There's other TSC locations that I get nervous going into- will they take forever, will the staff be friendly, will they get my order right... but never do I worry at this location. read more

This is probably the best smoothie place in Boise. Great prices and if you get any of their food you get your smoothie 2$ less. The only issue I have is it takes a longer when you order, even with app order. Girls are supper friendly and cool. read more

Food was delicious and it was nice to see that they took extra precautions during COVID! Also thank you to the artist who labeled our smoothies! read more

Tropical Smoothie Cafe - Mango and detox smoothies - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Boise, Idaho

*Friendly and professional staff *$$ but for a pretty generous size smoothie *Never crazy busy when I go *Impressed by their business hours for a Smoothie Cafe *Drive-thru conveniency *Have gotten probably 10 or more of their superfood smoothies (Island Green) in just one month alone * 3 words to describe their smoothies-Addictive, Nutritious, Mouth Watering.. okay 4 words haha *Only downfall.. I wish they did punch cards for smoothies read more

In a sea of chain restaurants selling salt and bacon-wrapped whatever, this was a nice find during a road trip. I only got a smoothie but wanted to try their sandwiches too. Good modifiers and add ons for the healthy and athletic. read more

I took my 2 kids through the drive-thru. They were hungry hippos, so I decided to order the kids meal combo, a ham wrap, piece of fruit, and a 12 oz smoothie. The menu stated the price being $6something. Both meals were charged as $8something. I never would have ordered them such expensive meals! The receipt didn't reflect any add-on charges, just that the meals were $8+ apiece. I wish I had said something at the time but I was so so shocked at paying $23+ (I ordered at $5.99 smoothie) that I was speechless. Smoothies were great, however. The wraps were so-so, nothing special. read more

Love this place! I just moved right around the corner from it but hadn't been in yet. I got some coupons in the mail and thought I'd try it out as a healthier fast food alternative and I am pleasantly surprised. Even without coupons the prices are reasonable. The employees all smiled and greeted me. I really appreciated that they let me take my time at the counter, reading the menu and figuring out what I wanted. (I ended up getting the cali chicken flatbread, a side of chips, and the sunshine smoothie- which was all phenomenal!) As soon as I approached the computer counter one of the guys stepped right up to take my order and was super friendly. The overall vibe of the place was great with employees that seem to enjoy what they do. I thought it was fantastic and they have definitely earned themselves a new regular customer. Thanks for the great meal and service TSC! read more

Tropical Smoothie Cafe - Sunshine smoothie! Delicious - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Boise, Idaho

Poor service. Also the food is not good. The cheese is weird and the turkey taste funny.

I am crazy about these smoothies! The perfect balance of healthy and tasty, with something for everyone's taste! The add ons are a great option , and the Apple kale slaw is my favorite breakfast. read more

20 minutes to blend up some fruit is just ridiculous. a little bit of hustle would do the trick.

Great smoothies that taste so healthy, fresh, and delicious! Staff are funny and friendly. They are very courteous and polite. I love that. It makes all the difference. Wait times are a bit long, but I love them anyways. UPDATE: The last couple times I've gone here, they have had hardly any kale in their kale apple slaw. Even after I came in to have it fixed, there still wasn't much kale in it, though more than the first time for sure. So bummed. This was my new favorite place. Sigh. From 4 stars now down to 2. read more

Been here 3-4 times over the past month. It is the healthiest fast food option that I have seen in Boise and it is actually cheaper than most other places as well. The ability to add extra protein to any smoothie, easily makes this place my favorite fast food location! read more

Their smoothies are so delicious! Already been there two days in a row! It's nice and convenient, there's even a drive thru! I highly recommend the Mango Madness or the Rockin' Raspberry! But really anything they make is going to be great! And their employees are so nice, they all treat one another like family and one is always there to help someone! Definitely a place I'll be going to often :) read more

Tropical Smoothie Cafe - They even write on your cup! Today it was a smiley face, last time someone wrote "have a nice day!" - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Boise, Idaho

This is the best cafe I have ever been too, the customer service is absolutely amazing and the food & smoothies are to die for. I highly recommend the Tropical Smoothie Cafe. read more

We waited forever staring at the 3 employees who were only rushing cars through the drive through. It was over 5 minutes. Then once the guy came to get our order he said "be right back" and took another 5 minutes to come back and then to take our order he stared at us. There was no "what can I get you today?". Very frustrated. read more

We went here for lunch today and although they had many workers, scurrying around the kitchen, nobody had a clue of what to do.We waited over 25 minutes for our simple sandwich to be made and two smoothies. I won't be back. It was expensive, as well. Not worth the money for a turkey sandwich I could've made it home with slimy greasy turkey and a hotdog bun! read more

The tropical chicken salads sandwich here is the best! I've been craving it non stop since I had it last week. They have a lunch special of smoothie and half sandwich for $6.99. The smoothies are huge! I really enjoy the Avacodalata (sp?). Tastes fresh and I even got a few chunks of avocado. Service is always super friendly and smiling! read more

If you want to find the worlds best smoothie then you should come and try them and also their edible straws are so yummy! I would highly suggest it! I love all their delicious sandwiches and drinks! read more

Perhaps it was just an off day for this local smoothie joint, but this will not be a place I would go to again. My wife and I were both curious when we saw the long drive thru line so we went. The staff was friendly but the smoothies were not good. I got a mango/pineapple flavored smoothie but the only flavor I was tasting was water. My smoothie was so tasteless that it tasted like I was drinking slightly blended ice cubes. There is only one size for the smoothies which is not my favorite as well. If my smoothie was good then I would be happier with the larger drink size but now I feel like I wasted so much smoothie due to how little I drank of it. It also took about 30 minutes to get through the drive thru. Hopefully this was just an off day and not the norm. I'll gladly stick to my Jamba Juice. read more

Always loved the food and smoothies. Went in today 15 minutes before closing and the staff locked the door in my face. We weren't the only ones there.very frustrating read more

Save your time and money took me 30 min to get threw the drive threw I was forced to go threw because they don't let you go inside they are what is called a horrible business and it's even more obvious when you see all the one starts they get and they no joke asked me if I wanted to tip ya here's a tip close down and fined a new job ‍ read more

I love their food and smoothies..... but i hate how long it takes them. I work down the street I have a 30 min lunch and I wait about 15 min just for my food and drink it shouldn't take that long for them to do. Push your employees to do better and work faster. Everyone is nice and happy but how long it takes definitely doesn't help. read more

I love the smoothies but they have to do something about the service. It is so incredibly slow no matter how many people are working or in line. It doesn't matter whether you go in or or through the drive thru. Not a single person in here and I placed my order online and still had to wait 15 minutes. read more

Tropical Smoothie Cafe - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Boise, Idaho

Loved it! Delicious smoothies! I got the blueberry bliss which I would totally recommend. It's a combination of blueberries, strawberries, and bananas. So good! The place was very clean and service was great. I also got one of their breakfast wraps (I tried the all American wrap). It was good but not amazing. Overall, I would definitely recommend giving this place a try. read more

We were so excited to find out that there was a smoothie place out in Southwest Boise! Tropical Smoothie Cafe, however, is not your run of the mill smoothie place. The flavors are incredible, fruit and veggies fresh, environment clean and inviting, and the service superb. This was most definitely going to become a regular for our family! read more

Prices keep going up and service is awful. This place has gone downhill from when it first opened. This picture is from my last visit. The smoothie (avacolada) wasn't blended all the way and had chunks of spinach. I come here quite a bit and know what they're supposed to taste like. The girl who took our order handed my husband our smoothies and we said thank you and got the window shut on us without a peep from her. Management needs to teach some of these kids some customer service etiquette. read more

Tropical Smoothie Cafe - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Boise, Idaho

Really clean, friendly staff, and straightforward menu. Really great value -- two sandwiches w/sides and two smoothies (which are a good size) for only $20. Something like that would've been upwards of $30 at Panera. Can't wait to come back! read more

I am SO impressed with this place! The 2 guys and 1 gal there are way super nice and boy are these smoothies awesome! I got a wrap as well with the recommendation of one of the guys. So good! I can't believe the pompous tree huggers that complain about not enough kale or a Styrofoam cup. How self righteous must you be to leave a 2 star review due to a silly cup! With the people that work there and how amazing the smoothie and wrap are I will for sure be back in! I am a customer for life! read more
