Tastes good but they are sloooooow. 30 minutes to make 2 smoothies? What a joke

I got a smoothie and my fiance got a bowl and they were both delicious! We ordered ahead and picked it up and it was ready right away. And the lady was very nice!

The smoothies here are fantastic. There seems to be a time warp around this location, though. I first noticed it towards the end of last year. When we would go in and order, regardless of the crowd, we’d have our smoothie within 5-6 minutes. Once, while in line, I noticed a woman walk in, skip the line, and pick up a smoothie directly from the cooler and walk out. “Amazing,” I said. Delicious smoothies, instantly, with no human interaction? I must learn this power. The next week, I pressed the order button on my phone for the first time with a vigor long thought lost to my adolescence. A wave of satisfaction washed over me as I made my way to pick up the treasure for which my beautiful wife so yearned. But my satisfaction was turned to all-too-familiar disappointment upon entering the establishment to find that magical to-go cooler without the treat. I politely asked them if, in order to keep their delicious treats as fresh and delicious as possible, it was policy to wait until the customer arrived to begin their smoothie. Nay! It appeared it was just bad timing. Our next order we placed 20 instead of 15 minutes ahead of time. Much to our chagrin, the magic cooler was again, barren. I felt confused, angry. A farmer on the eve of the end of a season without rain. Today marks the sixth online order which was met with that familiar emptiness. What am I to do? Why do I place my hope and trust in the hands of this establishment when every time, I know I am to be let down? God, why have you forsaken me? Shall I begin ordering my sweet, sweet Nékter days in advance or am I cursed to spend eternity waiting for a magical to-go smoothie that will never arrive?

I always have a great experience at Nekter and will still continue to visit your locations. However, yesterday I ordered two smoothies and my raspberry smoothie was very tart, but hey that’s fruit. However the coffee one was undrinkable. I’m not one to complain and I was already home when the person who I got the drink for thought it was horrible and also I tried it and could not drink it. I will give you guys another chance since I had lots of great experience but $12 for a smoothie and when it’s undrinkable is very disappointing.

Picked my daughter up after school and we both were craving a sweet treat but I didn’t want to blow my macros for the day and found Nekter! I had the chocolate peanut butter smoothie, it was absolutely delicious and filling. I added the pea protein and it blended smoothly without a gritty taste, I’d definitely order it again when I want a chocolate treat without the guilt. My daughter had a mango smoothie and loved it, she ended up wanting a larger size. I downloaded the app and ordered, it was an easy experience and helped us figure out what we wanted in advance. By the time we arrived at the store they were sitting on the counter for us and we were greated warmly. Overall a great experience!

Good smoothie!

I wish it wasn’t so expensive to make your own smoothie. I have several food allergies and can only have certain fruits and bases. Why is it so much more expensive to make your own smoothie when the ingredients as a whole cost less then cheaper “premade” smoothies already on the menu?

This is the 1st time I ordered ahead on the app. The smoothie wasn’t blended enough or like it usually is. I do appreciate that the staff greeted me when I entered and wished me a good day when I left. I am trying to lose weight and visiting Nektar as a meal replacement once a week when I have a long day at work. I hesitate to recommend it to others bc it is very pricey. I justify it bc the shake is 2 meals for me. Otherwise I would have. Hard time paying this much as well.
