Vegan options with a side eye - Edit
I'm a vegan for health reasons and many of their options either contain sugar or multiple fruits andor sweeteners (dates, agave, etc). When I asked about ingredients or customizing my smoothie, I was met with a side eye. The counter person must've shared our experience with their coworkers as THREE emerged from the back.

The other one who made the drink blocked my view, but that "greenie up" addition was a costly joke as I couldn't taste kale nor the
spinach.
Make this a hard pass.

Disappointed - Edit
Great that they have tons of vegan options, but my $10 smoothie has no flavor and is mostly ice.

My go-to! - Edit
I love Nekter and the people who work there so much! Everyone is so understanding and helpful once you explain that you're vegan. Nearly everything is vegan here but there are some ice cream skoops and smoothies that have honey, bee pollen, and/or whey protein. Make sure to ask and they will check for you.
