all the workers were so nice when our big group came in they were all super friendly!

I went to Tropical Smoothie Cary. I had trouble reading the small print of the menu boards overhead. The young man walked up. I asked for a written menu with prices. I said I couldn't read the small print. He looked at me like I was crazy, pointed me to two nutrition counter signs which had no price info. He said I guess we don't have it then & walked away. So I left. No food & angry. What a Terrible way to treat an older customer & anyone really. The food portions have shrunk so much I don't need to go there again. read more

I am really not sure why Tropical Smoothie gets such low reviews bc we had a great experience and will return to any location. This one happens to be on Milwaukee Avenue in Wicker Park right across the street from the farmers market. The place is clean and has lots of seating and even has charging stations underneath the table. Plus free WiFi and the smoothies are great. So many healthy options. And the wraps were good too. Came out warm and the chicken was juicy and the sauce was perfectly light and not salty and plenty of veges which I loved. Staff are nice and patients. read more

Thanks to T-Mobile for the free smoothie code. I was able to order my smoothie right off the app and schedule it to be available after my therapy session. My smoothie was cold, fresh and ready on time. I really enjoy Tropical Smoothie because they have more than just smoothies. Location is in the middle of Wicker Park business district of Milwaukee. Some metered parking on the street but be prepared to search hard for a spot. All in all, I would return. read more

Ordered from the Milwaukee Avenue location to my work yesterday. Ordered a few things for the rest of the week. Thai salad did not come with dressing. I ordered this salad because of the peanut sauce. Also, paid extra for quicker delivery and they were 25 minutes later than given time window. read more

Got a pickup order around opening on a weekday and it was quiet, clean, and really no on there. There was a surprisingly decent amount of seating so definitely not a bad option if you need to get work done. Staff was efficient and friendly. Dragonfruit smoothie bowl is much sweeter than I anticipated, and the goji berries seem freeze dried (so crunchy) rather than dried fruit, but otherwise great bowl! read more

Took literally like 30 minutes to get two smoothies. No idea what order they make things in because they put out takeout orders seemingly right on time even if they were huge orders. read more

My absolute favorite place in our town healthy and made to order we always come for happy house I can feed my whole family at a reasonable price read more

Service was sub par- confusion taking my order and after ordering with the rest room code. Also, the restroom straight back- restroom code is 1738, & the restroom back & to the left is 2319. read more

Trying a new place for breakfast, the smoothies are flavorful and a fulfilling size. PB sandwich isn't bad

Very nice cashier, delicious food. It came out warm and toasty and had just the right amount of flavor! Service was fast as well, we waited under five minutes (albeit on a more empty day). Would definitely recommend! read more

Nice size smoothie. Tastes great. The wrap was also very good. Spicier than I thought it would be. Asked for no beans and found two. Other wise good. The slaw with apples was very good. Quick service and delivery. read more

It's everything i want in a spinach, feta, and pesto wrap. Will definitely be having this regularly!

Stop by this neighborhood gem and grabbed there banana and chia seed smoothie it was an amazing. Not too sweet and the the price point you can't beat it. read more

Yummy :) (it was really good and the workers were really nice, food was amazing and the place was really clean and seating was nice)

We ordered smoothies and a Thai salad. The salad was unfortunately not fresh but from a bag and the spinach and lettuce was old and soggy. It was gross. The side that you get for free was a joke. We got a spoonful of old kale and apples which was also disgusting. I gave it a 2 because the smoothies were ok. Otherwise it would be a 1. Finally, everything was served in single use plastic, including plastic lids even though we were eating in. And even worse for the environment, smoothies aee served in stryofoam cups!! read more

T-Mobile proffered a coupon for a free smoothie from this chain. Never heard about them before. Likely won't be going back. Ordered a Blueberry Bliss on their app (about $8), and arrived about 10 minutes later. They had the order but hadn't started making it yet. They weren't busy, so that was odd. . . Two of three visible employees were dressed like halloween. Only one in a uniform. The young man (shown) started to make this drink for me. Oops - no strawberries on the line! Walked to the back of the store, pried open a box, and took out some strawberries. Oops! no blueberries, either! Same drill. Not moving very fast either. He then dumped like four large scoops of crushed ice into the blender. After two bouts with the blender, a different person poured it into a cup. The drink was - well, horrible. Fruit mixed with water. Is this really what passes for a smoothie here? Thanks for the coupon. I won't come back. read more

Quick and Super Polite , Very clean service and no wait in line. It was a early morning and it was clean in the store too.

I was running late for work I stopped in for my free Birthday smoothie and I was guided through the steps by Ana . Ana was very patient and understanding because I couldn't find the email to give her the code for my free smoothie. Thank You so much ANA! Melrose Park location really have a great employee that gave great customer service. read more

Love the look of store , ordered a jerk wrap was delicious and customer service was top tier thank you Rocky and staff... from Wingwtop oh and smoothie kiwi was also good read more

Tropical Smoothie Cafe is a new discovery for me and I'm a big fan now. I've been to another branch a couple times and the food and smoothies I enjoyed at this location were just as good. So far my faves are the chicken pesto flatbread, kiwi quencher smoothie, and hurricane smoothie (which is currently a featured flavor that I expect will disappear from the menu at some point). Unfortunately, I have to dock stars for the service. Granted I came in during prime lunch hour but they were severely understaffed. The people working there were friendly but there were only 2 of them trying to serve a decently sized lunch crowd. I waited a while at the cash register to place my order but they were busy running around fixing up food and smoothies. Ultimately I realized it would be faster to order on the app so that's exactly what I did. Protip: order on the app before coming if you go during a peak hour. read more

i love this place! i have tried several smoothies & loved them! i really love acai bowl! it comes a little frozen on the bottom so it's very refreshing! read more

I've visited several locations as this up and coming franchise has been popping up everywhere! Waited to finally post a review as I was interested in comparing locations. First and foremost, quality ingredients are used in their smoothie concoctions, however it is important to note a few key details. They only serve one size, which is 24 oz so you are forced to go with one selection, or a one size fits all, unless it's from the kids menu. Secondly, the prices are a little on the steep side, especially if you select add-ons, including Splenda, protein powder, or fat burners. You'll certainly walk out with paying $20-25 for two smoothies, unless you sign up for the tropic rewards program you can earn points for some benefits if you frequent the store. Service needs some improving, staff seems to be unorganized and sometimes discombobulated, store in Norridge always seems to be out of change, and other locations expect a delay even if the store is not busy. If you are looking to curb your sweet tooth on somewhat of a healthier level, certainly give it a shot, just with certain expectations. read more

Good? I guess? maybe it's not what I expected. Probably could've made it at home :( the worker said "did you just get a smoothie?" And I didn't reply because the question wasn't directed at me. Then she said "hello?" Which I thought was a little rude. But it was a busy day and I got a free smoothie (free smoothie day). So kind of understandable read more

Recently ordered a blueberry bliss from ubereats and when i drank it kept finding small pieces of aluminum foil and plastic. Called to complain to see what they can do about it and the girl who answered had no resolution other than a refund that may or may not come in five business days. She also stated she did not make the smoothie like thats not the point. Someone obviously dropped a packet and still continued to blend it and serve to a costumer. Its absurd. Deeply unsatisfied and afraid to even order another smoothie read more

Great smoothies. Great staff. A bit expensive. No complaints. Definitely recommend to try this place!

Just like to Thank the manager Caesar and his only staff member on a busy Monday for all the hard work & attention to fulfill the overwhelmed amount of orders in a precise manner being understaffed. The wait was long, but they accommodated everyone with kindness and me being the last one, gave me a complimentary bowl for the wait. Hard work, great Customer service & kindness wins Any day! read more

I feel like cutting it into slices that can actually be picked up is the bare minimum. A sad lack of very minimal effort. read more

I went yesterday, there were a lot of mobile orders, a long line of people and only 3 employees working. They looked stressed but the person that took my order was very nice, answered my question about which smoothies are best for dairy free and even let me know that the whey protein I asked for is derived from dairy and I should go with pea protein. The smoothie was good, pretty thick but a perfect post workout snack. read more

Nasty, overcooked dry sandwiches. I love Tropical Smoothie Cafe but Do Not go to this location on Milwaukee Avenue!!!!!!

HORRIBLE; gave me the wrong drink didn't even know my order and was making the order from off my phone for a mobile order I placed. Never ordering again from there read more

The smoothies aren't that great and the service is so slow. Took about 20 minutes to get my smoothie & over half an hour to receive my fiancé's. Waiting over half an hour for a couple of smoothies after spending about $20 on them isn't worth it. I'll go to Pure Green down the street next time. read more

the service here is actually horrendous. the younger girls working at the N broadway street location have a stick up their butts and aren't afraid the show it. I never tip anymore because they are just plain old rude. food is ok. not worth the price along with the awful service read more

Waited an extra 10 minutes when I ordered ahead of time and I arrived when food was supposed to be ready, making it a total 35+ min for them to make my order. The restaurant had 2 customers already eating and one other online order ahead of me with about 4 people working behind the counter. On top of that, when I was given my smoothie, it was drenched and completely overfilled. I had to dump the contents from the top of the lid in the trash can and was only given 2 napkins from staff to clean the disaster. I finally drank my two smoothies and they weren't even blended properly, I was chewing on large pieces of ice and fruit. It couldn't even fit through the straw at times, to the point where I'm reblending my smoothies at home. The flavors on top of that are horrendous, watery and no flavor. I love tropical usually and frequent the UIC location often, but tried this one since it's closer to home. please train your staff to do better at this location read more

I like there smoothies and the Buffalo Chicken Wrap is good too. The Jalapeño Corn hits the spot as a side.
