The people at the counter were very nice and helpful! The smoothie was delicious and the salad was fresh and huge, big enough to share!

Great vegan options and they even had a few meat options for my friends. Finally it's the other way around! No cross contamination. I'll certainly go back!

I spent 4 very hard days going back and forth from Greensboro to the hospital in WS and knew that I needed something rejuevenating to get some "lifesforce" back in me. When I came in John really stepped up, came around the corner to help me make a decision on what might be a really helpful juice. John, you were a gift from heaven in a small way the other day, thanks for being helpful during a time when I really didn't want to make any more decisions that day. Great juice, great vibe, super employees, I'll stop by again for sure!Ryan

I typically really enjoy the food here, but today that was not the case. I ordered the sunset bowl in store for takeout and while waiting for my bowl, I overheard two employees joking about they did not know how to make it. I waited 10+ minutes while other customers received their orders and good service from the employees. When my bowl was finally ready, it was extremely liquid-y and appeared watered down even (not a smoothie consistency at all) - this did not help with my confidence that any of the employees did in fact know how to make what I ordered. Like other reviews have commented, its blatantly obvious that most of the employees don’t want to be there/treat “regulars” extremely differently. It’s disappointing to see the quality and service decline. I will take my business elsewhere in the future.

This is a place you can go to get work done, relax, and have me-time. The environment is so calming and I can imagine spending a lot of time doing work, planning, or even watching tv just for moment to myself.The food is excellent and healthy, too. I usually get the avocado toast which could definitely feed two for breakfast, but they also have delicious smoothies and cold pressed juices. I have a sensitive stomach and the food here never gives me a stomachache, it’s always consistent and delicious and makes me feel full.If you want to visit a beautiful little spot in Winston that gives you a taste of what juice places are like in LA, all while being locally and sustainably sourced and staffed with very nice people, this is the place for you.10/10 would tell literally anyone to try this place and drive them there myself

This place has a great vibe and good menu. I had a pinky swear smoothie add pea protein. It was just okay and tasted like straight up strawberries and I think that's why I feel as I did about it. I also got the farmers daughter bowl. I made two meals out of this. It was very good. I would definitely have this again. I also tried some Billy Cakes treats-Boss bar, OMG bar, Taheenie something and Blondie Brownie. All super tasty! Definitely a great spot for clean, healthy items!

We love the smoothies and breakfast bowls here!! My oldest likes the kids superhero smoothie and I like the farmers daughter bowl. Great for an after workout meal. Seating is cute but not super conducive for children sitting with you. It feels airy and healthy!!

I was hungry after my stretch at stretch zone and this place is right next door so I gave it a try. It was pretty crowded which is a good sign. You order food at the counter and they call your name for pick up when it is ready. Service was friendly and efficient. This place specializes in smoothies, wraps, salads and grain bowls. I ordered the avocado toast with tomato and bacon. Let me tell you, the bread was thick cut and toasted. The avacdo was delicious and fresh. The tomatoes were thick slices and delicious. Great quality tomato and let's not forget the BACON. Crispy and delicious. Cooked perfectly I also ordered a Sunrise smoothie featuring mango and other fruits. The banana was NOT overpowering which was a pleasant surprise. The smoothie was delicious! All in all a very positive experience. Great service and great food. 4 stars instead of 5 because it's rather pricey. $24 including tip. A little steep in my eyes. Sure I'll go again. They have many things I want to try. Just know what to expect price-wise.
An amazing place for healthy foods with wonderful flavor! Organic, gluten-free and vegan options!

Ordered online and was missing some of the extra add ons I paid for which was disappointing. But overall the food was good.

This place is disappointing to say the least. My first ever experience here was when I was delivering Door Dash. I came in to pick up an order and the cashier, who was blind and looked very young was extremely rude. She literally didn’t acknowledge once and took other customers that came in behind me. Finally I had still there for so long she called a customer up and I interrupted her and said “excuse me, I’ve been standing here for a very long time and you haven’t even acknowledged me”. The customer insisted on her servicing me which it seems to have bothered her.I said I would never return after this experience but one day I was craving an açaí bowl and didn’t want to drive across town so I decided to give this place a try. The service was a lot better this particular day. There was a lady with purple hair and another young lady fixing smoothies and they were both very pleasant. However, the bowl was absolutely disgusting. I’ve never in my life had anything like it. There was not an ounce of sweetness. I asked for almond butter but was told it was already included in the bowl. The cocoa chips (I believe) were literally bitter. The açaí itself had no taste or flavor to it at all. I was so pissed because I was stuck with a $13 bowl of nastiness. Absolutely horrible. I will never be returning to this place. I can’t imagine how they’re even in business.

My only complaint is the atmosphere. It is more like a fast food ambiance. I love finding plant-based foods. I wish it felt more like a restaurant. Comparison: Boba House in Greensboro is my go-to plant restaurant there. It feels like fine dining. In all honesty, vegans are ecstatic to find an-eating-out meal!The quality and variety of the food are excellent.Vegetarian options: ExcellentDietary restrictions: Great vegan choices.
