I’d give this 5 stars if only the cappuccino was hot. It was lukewarm at best. Maybe the machine needs to be serviced? For me , lukewarm espresso drinks with milk do not agree with me. I just popped it in the fridge and drank it cold the next day. Coffee was great! I had their spicy avocado toast, which was excellent. I found the service to be super friendly and the dog was a nice treat - very playful. Will be back

Got a sandwich and the bagel was molded. Came back another time to give it a second chance and my smoothie tasted like another item on the menu. They need to clean their equipment

My husband and I stopped for lunch and had the most amazing grain bowls! The chicken was delicious and the veggies were fresh!! One was Hawaiian, the other a Buffalo chicken, all on a huge bed of rice with great seasonings!!! Very filling!We will go back!! Great atmosphere also with very friendly service!!!

Great healthy food options and very friendly staff

Hours very unpredictable— often not open when they post they will be. Pretty much always only one employee, who only comes out if you ring a bell. But better smoothies than Pressed so sometimes we just deal with it.Added after owner replied claiming this was false: There was no mention of different hours on the website (just normal 9-3). There was zero sign on the door or on the sign outside saying hours were different (we had to just pull the door to find out it was locked). Google also just showed 9-3. But yes, let’s just blame customers for telling the truth instead of actually taking the feedback (which OTHER reviewers have also shared) and correcting it. This is no way to run a business. I’m changing my view— we won’t be back here.

The food is quite good, everything is fresh and feels healthy. I also love online ordering!

Had an amazing bowl and coffee today. So glad to have this healthy option so close and available on doordash.

My husband and I love the smoothies and their nitro cold brew, it’s the best around. The issue stems from their hours. First, opening at 9 is late for a coffee breakfast place but that’s IF they open the doors at 9. My husband and I come here almost daily and sit and wait for them to actually open their doors at 9… which is seldom. Today we went there and it was 9:30 on a Tuesday .. the hours state they’re open yet their doors are not. They have such great coffee and food and we love the place, we just wish they’d open as stated.

We order from here a lot solely on how fantastic their food is, but today we discovered a whole new level of love for a restaurant!! Grub hub did me dirty and canceled our lunch order. The fricken owner of restaurant calls me directly AND assisted me in getting my order with no time wasted. Then the restaurant even sent us a complimentary dessert toast, and my God, you didn’t know how bad we needed that *drool face* . 45/10 restaurant and owner!
Delicious black bean wrap! Quick service on my lunch break and I got to swing in a hammock chair while I waited and watch coy fish swimming in their indoor aquarium. Thank you, I'll be back :)

Amazing staff and good, quality food. The smoothies are always delicious and the food is on point. The owners are amazing friendly people who take customer service and quality as their priority. A new rewards program was just started and it is more customer driven. The owners explained it to me and it is awesome. Windham has needed a good food location and Balanced was it's rescue.

Definitely JUST a smoothie place. I visited the Plaistow location and I ordered a chicken sandwich for lunch, which appeared to have canned chicken on it and not the fresh seasoned chicken as advertised. I puked not even 20 minutes after eating it... needless to say I won't be coming back for any other food menu items. The smoothies are pretty decent, but they definitely don't have a chef.

Delicious smoothies & açaí bowls! You can tell they use very fresh fruit.
