I'm actually pretty surprised by the bad reviews about this location. I come here probably 2-3 times a week, usually in the afternoon on weekdays because of the proximity to my work, and they are always friendly and fun. The most common complaint, speed, has never really been an issue, and I've gone when there have been up to 3 other people in line.
They've offered plenty of opportunities for deals to get me to return to their location (fill out the survey online, informing me of coupons online, scratch and wins) and it always works!
I'm actually really glad this store is so close by! I'll be back!
I only went here due to the location and a gift card / coupon
The service isn't horrible like many reviews claim, or maybe I'm always going on a good day. I love that Jamba has the calories straight on the board. It seems like this is a popular spot for commuters as I usually see many people there over the course of the day.
Pros:
The workers here will make recommendations if you are having trouble and if you tell them what you like.
They make the drinks per order quickly and they come out tasty.
Cons:
Sometimes the staff can get flirty
They run out of things
I'm not big on Jamba as a chain but I haven't had any issues here.
I am a Jamba Juice fanatic! Absolutely love it! However, I was very disappointed with this location. After waiting about 15 minutes for my order, I had to ask for a refund as my boyfriend and I were minutes from missing our train. There were only two people working this location, and the girl blending the smoothies went to the back for what seemed like 5 minutes. I dont understand why they didnt have two or three more employees to help out??
I will continue to purchase Jamba but not from this location.
This is probably the worst Jamba location in the city. Â I was really wanting some Jamba oatmeal this morning for breakfast and given that this location is in the train station, I thought, "I might as well give it a shot." Â Now, I haven't been to this location since they had their small renovation about a year a go or so, and all I really remember about the location before that was that they were SO SLOW. Â So... you can imagine my surprise and delight when my oatmeal was ready so fast. Â I kind of thought it was a little too good to be true, but figured, how can you really mess up oatmeal? Â Now for the fun part, I get to my desk, take of the lid and realize THERE ARE NO BANANAS. Â Thank you so much, crap Jamba location, for charging me for "Fresh Banana Oatmeal" only to serve me regular oatmeal.
Review Source:I love Jamba. I love the fact that there is one merely steps off my train at Ogilvie. That makes my mornings and afternoons a little sweeter.
I mean who doesn't love fruit blended up in a smoothy concoction bursting with flavor? Not to mention that it's good for you too! I tend to stick with the lighter smoothies with a protein boost for a snack, but if I'm looking for a meal replacement (aka light breakfast) then some of the 200+ calorie smoothies are on my radar. I should mention though, I am a slave for their oatmeal. Honestly, I don't think I've ever had BETTER oatmeal. You're probably thinking that is a pretty bold statement, but it's totally true! The steel cut oats are slowly cooked into a creamy consistency with soy milk and topped with fun toppings such as fresh berries, brown sugar, nuts, etc. You can't go wrong, and it's so filling and cheap to boot. Psst...try the berry cherry oatmeal...it's my fave!
This has got to be the worst Jamba Juice I've ever been to!
They were very slow, even though there were 3 people behind the counter. Made me miss the train I was planning on taking, luckily there was one leaving fifteen minutes later.
Anyway, the person who took my order was also condescending, so I gave her attitude back. Good thing they blend it right in front of you or else I would have been afraid of her spitting in my drink.
No gloves........... Â :
I've seen employees sneeze, cough and bite their nails at this Jamba Juice, yet I keep coming back. Â My boyfriend and I spent our teenage years slaving away at our local Jamba, which may be the reason we keep JJ so close to our hearts. Â
The staff does give us extra smoothie almost everytime we go there. Â I'm not sure if they're being generous or if they're just not good at measuring ingredients. Â I'm not complaining though.
I love Jamba Juice, but they are so slow here! Â They have five people packed into this little store front, but typically there is only one one person actually doing work. Â I've been here upwards of twenty times, but I typically feel like I'm doing them a service instead of them servicing me for my five dollar smoothie. Â
I'm a shareholder of Jamba and this location exemplifies how the stock price has plummeted from $10 a share to under a dollar in a year.
