Smoothie reviews · Nekter Juice Bar - La Habra

Great Smoothies always

The customer service here has been the best so far. My smoothie is always prepared perfectly at taste. I’ve never had any issues or complaints about any of the employees. I live closer to the Bella Terra location which in the past have had problems with my orders. I will drive the extra miles to LaHabra because I know my order will always be right! 👍😊. Thank you!

I love it here so much! Especially since I’m dieting, the smoothies are perfect. Also, service is always fast and the workers are so friendly!

My favorite business in La Habra. So much life in this little store and the smoothies are the best.

Nekter is a superb juice bar, for the 1st class bowls (acai, dragon fruit, protein power) as much as the smoothies and juices. Incredibly tasty and good for you. The great folk who work here also contribute to making every visit a good one. Since everything is made to order, like any of the best juice bars, don't expect it to be "fast food" quick. But instead of getting something within seconds that's literally trying to choke your heart and shaving years off your life, you're spending a few minutes to get fresh ingredients and a meal equivalent that will make you glad you chose to be good to your body.

Love Nekter. Bowls are so good I almost never have anything else, but I'm intrigued by the Ab health nut smoothie!

This is my review regarding a recent rude experience at Nektar, the La Habra location. The incident occurred Thursday August 4, 2022 and I hope my sharing is of help to potential customers. (This is a lengthy review, but I want to be as transparent as possible...) I visited Nektar to request a business card.  My mother was poorly treated by Nektar employees that same day and I wanted to resolve the situation as respectfully as possible. I saw two Nektar employees when I entered the establishment. I had no idea that these two employees were the same workers who had been rude earlier to my mother. I noticed one of the employees was staring at me in a mean-spirited way, but chose to wave it off. As someone who has worked in customer service, I get it--serving other people is not an easy job and I am sure these employees are dealing with so much. However, I was a little stunned by the open hostility. I asked one of the employees for a business card/contact information and relayed some of what had occured with my mother's treatment. I believe the rude treatment of my mother was racially motivated. Another African-American woman witnessed my mother exiting Nektar after the incident and confided that she too had experienced rude treatment at this same Nektar La Habra location.  After hearing my mother share her experience, the woman shared that she had hoped management at this Nektar location had changed as she had stopped visiting Nektar La Habra for over a year. The woman decided to come back because she was trying to give this location a second chance, which is unfortunate. My mother's treatment and this woman's treatment indicate rude behavior has been ongoing. The woman decided to leave Nektar La Habra that day without making a purchase. After leaving Nektar, I gave Shannon, the business manager, a call on behalf of my mother. I truly hoped for conflict resolution and some accountability to transpire on this call, but this was not the case. Shannon was very rude, continuously interrupting me even as I allowed her to speak. She was bent on protecting her employees' even if their behavior was clearly wrong. She eventually threatened to end the phone call by hanging up. My response was that I would hang up instead seeing as she was not interested in having an adult conversation. I understand there are ALWAYS two sides to every story, however I wonder why all the blame was placed on my mother. Shannon stated that her employee, Ariana, apologized two times with the response of “I’m sorry, I’m busy.”This is untrue. What actively frustrated my mother was not being acknowledged as she entered Nektar and Ariana responding not with an apology but with, "I'm busy." Shannon reported that she watched footage of the event and concluded that the length of the video meant the encounter was not significant. Shannon continuously gave excuses for her workers' rude behavior and also shared about working conditions. .She spoke about late deliveries. She said that family stress made it difficult for her to have certain conversations. Shannon shared that her employee Ariana was going through some tough life things and that I have no idea what she was taking on. Shannon also said that her employees' age (20 years) was a viable excuse to treat customers poorly. Shannon was full of excuses, defensiveness, and refused to take any personal accountability. As the owner of four Nektar locations, I really question Shannon's ability to lead by example with professionalism, integrity, and basic human respect. So, while my desires to remedy this interaction were rebuffed, I do hope my review here can be of service to future customers of Nektar, (especially the La Habra location) and that Nektar takes this feedback into consideration and focuses on equitable customer service. In the meantime, I recommend local institutions like Robeks and Movita for your smoothie and acai bowl deals. Not only are their offerings delicious, they are not served with a side order of rudeness :) Take care everyone and please share your stories.

Friendly an fast customer service, good smoothies and bowls.

All the girls there rock. They’re very kind and make 💣 smoothies.

I ordered and my boyfriend went to pick it up and I received the wrong order. I ordered a juice and got a smoothie.

It was done fast and efficiently. My smoothie was very good too

Love how easy the ap is to order and my order is always ready when I get there. The people that work there are always welcoming and friendly. I love the smoothies here.

Smoothie way too watery.

This smoothie is different from the same smoothie I ordered from Nekter before. It was so bland. Something is missing. Too bad. I always order the same smoothie through Doordash.

I love Nekter smoothies and I love their costumer service.
