    Island Green Smoothie sub mango for blueberries no ginger
    Christa F.

    Shout out to the young lady who remade my smoothie today! I ordered through the app and was just literally a few minutes away, but could not get away when I thought I could so I was late getting to the store to pick up my order and it was all on me. When I got to the store, I apologized and the young lady said it's okay. Then she said try it and if it's watered down, let me know and I'll remake it which she actually did. I'm so grateful she was very nice.

    Not my drink...

    This is the worse place to go, every single time they mess up my order and the ladies are soooo rude, there's this African American girl that has long braids, I told her my order was wrong she just ignored me and turned around and kept working on other orders, now I have to take this smoothie that has bananas and it's not even my order. She's been so rude to everyone that was before me and her face and they way she throws the drinks is horrible. Please avoid this place the ambiance is so bad. You go in there and the energy is so negative everyone with angry faces. I'm not sure if it's because they're being mistreated by their boss but it has to chance. It's been like this for a long time.

    Santa Fe chicken quesadilla
    Cari L.

    I had no idea they served food as well. Santa Fe chicken is just so-so. With entrée your provided kale salad, fresh fruit (pic of apple) and chips. I don't like kale and my daughter and I are both allergic to fresh apples believe it or not. So we went with the chips and I did not receive them. I started eating Just as I remembered I did not post review. This is Santa Fe chicken quesadilla.. Hate to bring it up again but I got no side.. I do wish I had a tropical smoothie to wash this down with. The salsa on the side is a nice flavorful yet spicy and chunky sauce.. Again, never knew that they sold food other than smoothies so Can't really recommend food as this is my first meal ever and my daughter raves about the hummus wrap. I am only giving it a lower score because I don't have my side. BTW this order was a pick up order. Half of it was ready and half was not when my friend arrived to pick it up. Not complaining just stating the facts. Maybe friend was complaining to me so that is why it is mentioned. I would like a little bit of money back for not receiving aside or at least throw in a smoothie - not a kale one LOL. If there were 4 1/2 stars I would give it that. Again surprised that this place served food. It's a shame that the title is throwing away all of their menu items. I would order again but add different sides because well just because and I sure would like a smoothie or something to wash the spicy sauce down with. It is really good though

    Da' Smoothies - Jetty Punch was very nice.

    Now for something completely different, which for us, is pretty much what this place is about. We used our friends at Dining Dash to deliver an order from this place (usual excellent job), our very first experience with their offerings, probably a one and done thing. We tried a Smoothie and 1/2 Salad for $7.49 (Kiwi Quencher & Loaded Spinach Salad), a Smoothie and 1/2 Sandwich for $7.49 (Jetty Punch & Ultimate Club), 3 Tacos for $11.99 (Thai Chili Steak, Cilantro Lime Fish, & Korean BBQ Steak) and added a Rockin' Raspberry Smoothie, and finally, a Jamaican Jerk Chicken Wrap for $6.99. The smoothies are well sized (24 OZ), and while none of the 3 were bad, only the Jetty Punch really seemed packed with flavor, would definitely re-order that one. Other than the Spinach Salad (which was quite nice), none of the food items really impressed, with the Ultimate Club being especially uninspired and bland - the bread was thick and lacked flavor, the turkey was of the pressed variety, which says it all. The tacos weren't bad, but I wouldn't consider this as a destination spot for tacos either. The Jamaican Jerk Chicken was just ok, no re-order. Smoothies were very good to just ok, the food was mostly unsatisfying and disappointing, definitely would not come here to pick up a sandwich or a wrap. One of those "you don't know till you try" places - now we know.

    A crappy quesadilla.  Horrible employee who thought this was acceptable.
    David S.

    I don't know what it worse, this order or the employee who put it together and thought it was ok. Either way both are poor and need to be better.

    Tasty, accurate smoothies with a reasonable wait time. The smoothies are delicious and I love how they offer kids smoothies. Hopefully they come out with more kids flavors soon or offer different sizes of the other smoothies. It was our first time visiting this location and overall it was pretty typical for tropical smoothie cafes. The wait time was long but reasonable and the flavorful smoothies were made accurately. Favorites include the Acai Berry Boost and Detox Island Green.

    The staff refuses to make simplistic changes when customers ask for personalization. The lack of response from management is unacceptable.

    Just wanted to add to my original review, that Boulder's has become probably a monthly stop for us…read moreat one point or another. Great casual atmosphere, the staff have really come into their own, and the food is simple but has little touches that often make it a small cut above most other sports bar type places around. My favorite things to order are the smashburgers, chicken philly (almost as good as the one at Old Town, a restaurant also belonging to this same owner), and now the fish and chips. I decided to get those last night, and the fish was two good size thick cod filets, fried and breaded perfectly. The fish was flaky and tender, the remoulade it came with really elevated it, I'm glad it was not plain tartar sauce (gross). The appetizer favorite here is the pulled pork nachos for me, otherwise, we usually just get meals. If I had one small complaint, it's that the tea is usually brewed pretty weak. Steep it a little longer, and you've got me fully hooked.

    First timers here!…read more Food: Everything we had was good from their appetizers, wings, handhelds, and salads. Their fries are potato wedge style and nicely seasoned too. We loved their homemade dressings. Service: Our server was great! Attentive, kind, and offered to let us taste test. She also was helpful in her descriptions and recommendations. However, our experience fell short upon arrival. The hostess said they don't have a table for 5 but we could add a chair to a 4 top. And when I said that's not a comfortable or reasonable set up for 5 people and asked if we could push two tables together, she seemed annoyed. Who thinks it's acceptable for a party of 5 to sit someone at the corner point of a 4 top table when there are open tables all around? Management advice: If this is truly your approach, I'd recommend you rethink that logic. This is basic hospitality.

Most reviews are years old. Here's to hoping this review helps! This place really deserves more attention. It is in an industrial park and not easy to see. The restaurant itself doesn't have a lot of parking spaces, but you can park in the large lot in front or behind and take a short walk. The first thing I noticed was the diversity of patrons. That's always a good sign. The lady at the counter greeted me with a cheerful smile and I could tell she knew a lot of the regulars and their orders as they came to the counter. The gentleman who brought my food out to me was very pleasant and engaged me in conversation. I tried the turkey Reuben with fries today. I give it 4 stars due to lack of meat. It had great flavor, but was loaded with sauerkraut and a thin slice of turkey. The fries were a little underdone for my liking but they weren't bad. From looking around the small dining area, I could see this was consistent with other patrons and the sandwiches they had on their plates, not a lot of meat. I will add this place to my lunch rotation now. I look forward to trying the other meals and being able to review some of those.

They were full of flavor and the toppings complemented them nicely! They were nice and hot when we got home as well! Only downside was the missing sauces in our bag. Not a deal breaker and I should have checked before we left, but it's okay! We have ketchup at home and I hadn't yet decided how to use my ranch!

    This place remains one of my favorite weekday lunch hidden gems in Greensboro! Hours are limited…read morebecause it mainly serves the industrial area that it is hidden in the middle of, but if it works for your schedule to come here, you really should. They make a lot of their sides from scratch, and bake their own breads. Everything is made to order, so be ready for a short wait, but know that it is worth it. To get here, once you're on Airpark road, take your second right. If you hit the traffic circle you've gone too far. After taking that right, drive to the end of the straightaway and you'll be confronted with a large parking lot on the right. Spring Garden Bakery is in the back right corner. The restaurant is clean. Minimally appointed. Don't expect comfy chairs, they use the industrial grade metal ones. No one is staying here very long so that is fine. Menus are on the counter as you approach the register, and photos are on Yelp if you want to look first. They have a wide selection of sandwiches, salads, burgers, and daily specials. Drinks are either brewed tea, or canned/bottled beverages. I have grown particularly fond of their club sandwich. It comes with a lot of meat on it, and they're happy to sub in Honey Mustard for mayo, which is the way I prefer it. Another thing that I love here, when they have fried okra, GO FOR IT. It appears to be hand-breaded and fried to order, the most recent batch I had was perfect. Golden brown, crispy outside, tender okra inside. Yum. Visit this place for an excellent meal at an excellent price!

You can always order the bread to take home if you're a fan as I am. I decided to grab the Thai tea as well. Overall a nice lunch, and happy the service is as I recall.
