Mother Juice

I think a 3.5 would be apt here.
The juice I tried, the OH.EM.GEE, was really delicious – I think that’s where they excel. They had freshly made fruit in mason jars in the fridge and poured your juice to order. It was fresh, clean, a really nice combo of Tart sweet and refreshing.
My coworker and I also got lunch here and we’re up for something heartier than than juice. I got the forbidden rice bowl and she got the Keen What! I enjoyed mine – the sauce was great – but it isn’t something I’m still thinking about the next week. I’d order it again but I’m not rushing back to grab it. Hers was basically a lump of kale and quinoa and wasn’t that appetizing – the shredded kale was a huge mass. It was hard to eat and I wouldn’t order it for myself after seeing it.
I’ll come back, but probably for a juice to start my day rather than for lunch.
I got there at noon and there was no line. The staff was really nice and helpful.
Also, parking was impossible. What’s up with Kendall and the terrible 15 min parking?! There isn’t any! Not their fault, obviously, just an observation.

Visiting Boston for the day to watch the Celts game. And stopped in mother juice in Kendall square… Will the guy behind the counter told me about some of the juices and when i heard carrot juice i immediately shook my head no. I Love carrots but not carrots juice. Somehow he got me to try the C++ Carrots, pineapple, oranges, and ginger… It was fricken amazing. Will definitely stop in again when im back in the area.

The butternut squash sweet potato curry and the almond love smoothie was amazing! Maybe a little over priced but otherwise I will definitely be coming back.

Was out for a walk the other day & wanted to get something cool & refreshing and thought hey Lets stop in Mother Juice to try something out…
They were able to make me a Blue Coco with Blueberry, Coconut, FF Yogurt & some Banana…
It was tasty for the first few sips, but then started to get Awkward (as I dont LOVE banana)…
The kicker $ 8.33 FOR A F****** Smoothie…
I was soo sad, I wanted to love this place, but I dont think I would be back.

I love the smoothies here. My mom and I stumbled upon this little gem while wandering around Kendall looking for breakfast. The kelp smoothie, berries smoothie, and coco blue are great. The almond love is a bit bland but not horrible. I loved the sun butter toast. The chia seeds and honey added an interesting dimension to an otherwise straightforward piece of bread. This place would be amazing if the staff was just a bit warmer/​nicer.

First experience with Mother Juice today. It’s near my new work location, so I doubt it’ll be my last visit. I ordered the OH.EM.GEE juice with watermelon and lemon. It was pretty good, I’ve had better but it was still good. For lunch I ordered the sweet carrot quinoa. I’m not usually the type of person that considers salad a lunch. But this was delicious and filling! I’m not going to lie I was a little surprised! Happy to have found a new juice place that’s near my work. Also — I love that they support local farms! They had a bunch of greens from Red Firm Farm today. Support local!

I rarely order salads cause I’m a firm believer that I shouldn’t waste money on ingredients that I could throw together myself, but a lazy Sunday led to a lazy Monday and I found myself at no lunch Tuesday. I ordered the Super Green salad, which was comprised of spinach, shredded carrots, walnuts, cherry tomatoes, and green onions drizzled with a rather addictive almond lime based dressing. I loved the heavy dose of tangy goodness, but others may not share the same appreciation for their spinach swimming in a pool of dressing.
The menu consisted mainly of salads and shakes. The avocado toast appears to be a top sell, running out by the time I got to the counter. Service was quick and efficient, a total of about ten minutes between waiting in line and food being ready. Though the food was delicious, I found it rather pricey at $ 10 a bowl and $ 9 a shake. Certainly not an everyday option for the budget conscious.

Every time I feel like I need a liquid breakfast/​lunch I stop by here for some punishment. I usually try the coco or almond love, although the almond love has a bit too much cinnamon for my taste. To be honest, it doesn’t really taste that good in general, but it does taste healthy which is the only reason I stomach it. Although I saw a sign today after I placed my order for a salad that sounds intriguing, the grape salad with arugula and other veggies and white balsamic dressing.

I tried Mother Juice for the first time today after a few co-​workers had a cleanse delivered to the office. I can only review the Keen-​What! Salad (Warm Quinoa with Kale, Carrots, Beets, Avocado, Ginger Tahini Dressing)
Pros:
–The Ginger Tahini Dressing is amazing. I’m a huge ginger fan, and it really comes through in this!
— Lots o’ avocado, a really generous portion
— Friendly and helpful service!
Cons:
— Green onions included but not listed on the menu. I am a weirdo, and hate any kind of onion so I was bummed when my salad came covered in them, but if you’re find with those little green guys, then no worries there
— Portion size — the large is very large, but is 70% quinoa 20% avocado + dressing and about 10% veggies. I wished there were larger cuts on the carrots and beets.
Verdict:
I would get this salad again sans onions and lighter on the quinoa. I also can’t wait to try a few of the others — the Kale & Sprout salad looked delicious.

This place is super cute inside! Very clean, colorful, and fun. I kinda want to hang out here more often. I could easily have lunch here while working. They’ve got plenty of seating and I love that they’ve got food/​nutrition books out for anyone to read.
I had the Sympathy For The Devil juice — Beet, Carrot, Celery, Lemon, Habanero. Woah! Spicy! I can handle heat but this one got me going! I liked it though. :)
I also had Keen Whaaat bowl that has quinoa, kale, beets and a tahini sauce. The bowl was a bit on the smaller side for the price — mostly full of quinoa. I would’ve like more veggies, or more of a variety. The tahini sauce was sooooooo good.
Because I was so impressed with my bowl, I got an avocado toast to go. I’ve been hunting down the best avo toast in Boston so why not. This wasn’t my favorite. The gluten free bread tasted like… well, gluten free bread. The avocado was fresh, as were the tomatoes, but I didn’t like the cherry tomatoes on the bread. They either fell off or were too big for a bite. Bummer. Not bad, just a different variation that maybe wasn’t for me.
Def will be back to try more bowls… or to hang out and read cool books. Like this place a lot.

I’m so glad I finally came to MoJu!
The kale yea juice is green and delicious… with the perfect hint of sweetness from the pineapple juice and then the zing of ginger.
The forbidden fruit bowl is to die for, the black rice is always cooked perfectly and I love the mango and avocado together with the tangy lime dressing and greens. The almonds top it off perfectly.
The hummus and pickle plate left a little to be desired — the hummus and GF pita were fantastic but was hoping for more of a variety of pickles besides pickled carrots.
The kale and sprout salad didn’t have any sunflower or pumpkin seeds which bummed me out, but was tasty nonetheless.
Service is always very friendly if a tad slow on the salads. I understand they’re making them to order so I don’t mind waiting.
I posted my MoJu temp. tattoo on Instagram and got $ 1 my next purchase.
Definitely recommend!

Mango green smoothie is so hot on the streets right now. I’ve been here twice now and can’t get enough, boo-​yeah! Me and my home slices were in the area padoodlin around and ventured into here last weekend. I ended up coming back on a solo mission weesnesday (don’t tell on me shhh) anyways I will most likely be back soon!

As a preface: I’ve only tried the red quinoa curry bowl and no juices yet, so my review is not yet fully-​informed. I’ll get a juice eventually, once I’ve had a rough night to follow ;-)
I am admittedly a bit skeptical of a lot of nutrition-​related trends since we are so uncertain about how the body works (e.g., don’t juices cut out all the healthy fiber? Isn’t kale actually now known to be not that big of a nutritional deal? etc). However, that being said, this place was cute, friendly, and happy to answer any of my questions.
The red quinoa curry bowl was my first time eating quinoa and it was pretty tasty! The combination of pomegranate seeds and pistachios with the avocado and quinoa creates a great texture in the mouth. It was also a large quantity, and left me feeling very full. Its flavors are subdued despite it being curry, so I’m not sure if I’m hooked. The price was reasonable but I’m a bit worried about the hefty (~$ 8) prices of the juices (especially since you just see it get poured from a fridge so you don’t get the added visual experience of it taking work to make, like a smoothie).
Overall, a tasty promising place and great for people who like this sort of thing. As a skeptical omnivore, this may not enter my regular repertoire but I am happy to give it a couple more tries.

Yay! I’m a fan.
I brought co-​workers here because I’ve been craving some smoothie or juice loving for a while now and I needed to know what this place was all about.
I got the Almond Love smoothie, which was delicious and very filling. Either I had a baby stomach that day or just carbo-​loaded too hard early that morning, but that was definitely a meal in itself.
Co-​workers got an array of drinks, all of which made them feel wonderful on the inside. Happy workers, happy worklife.
I didn’t try the food but some of my co-​workers did. One of them got the zucchini noodles. I assumed she loved them because she inhaled them all while maintaining a smile on her face. Another got a quinoa dish and rolled her eyes back so hard while eating it she almost went just a little blind. That’s when you know it’s good.
Four stars because the Almond Love smoothie was not the life-​altering experience I thought it would be, BUT because my co-​workers loved the joint so much I definitely want to come back and update this bad boy to a 5-​star review.
Update to come… when it’s warmer out.

Ventured here with a group of coworkers and split the unicorn blood juice and mango green smoothie. I definitely recommend both, but it’s really hard to choose a favorite. The unicorn blood is refreshing and earthy with just the right amount of sweetness. It has a very vibrant burgundy color — if I had to guess what unicorn blood looked like, this would be it.
The mango green is sweeter, but not overly so. The mango masks any kale flavor and if I close my eyes it tastes just like a mango banana smoothie. The juices and smoothies are around $ 7 – 8 and definitely worth it. The people are kind and they also have a wall covered in succulents and air plants (which I love) — overall, worth the trip and will definitely be back.

Big cartoon hearts in my eyes when I talk about this place.
Decided to try a bunch of their juices via a one day cleanse, and holy cow, they deliver! So I didn’t need to lug all those heavy bottles back to my apartment. The store communicated with me the night before to make sure I’d be available at the delivery time, and the juice-​bringer-​person arrived (one of the two ladies who run the store, I presume) promptly at the time discussed. I got a bag chock full of six adorable juice filled mason jars with pretty dangling labels. And I began the cleanse.
#1 — THE MOJU (kale, cucumber, green pepper, celery, green apple, orange, ginger): I was not looking forward to this, because I dislike celery and didn’t think green pepper would be pleasant in a juice, but somehow it worked! It was slightly salady but not unpleasantly so. Somehow they do a great job of cutting the bitterness and the extreme edges of the flavors of the individual components, so you end up with a smooth, seamless combination of everything. Not too sour, not too sweet, not too bitter. Green, but in a good way.
#2 — UNICORN BLOOD (beet, carrot, celery, watermelon, pineapple): The components tasted fresh and bright, and it was earthy and slightly sweet without that bitter/​dirty taste I usually get with raw beets. With this one also, I didn’t taste more than a bare hint of celery, which I usually loathe in juices.
#3 — C++ (carrot, pineapple, orange ginger): whew, the ginger is strong in this one! I taste mostly ginger and not much else. Nice if you like ginger, obviously, but not as much of a seamless blend as the other ones.
#4 — KALE YEA (kale, spinach, cucumber, broccoli, celery, mint, pineapple, ginger): a bit sour for me at first, but grew on me. I’ve never had a juice with broccoli before but didn’t really notice it much. Slightly sour, slightly citrusy, and green in a refreshing way.
#5 — THE CURE (beet, carrot, apple, celery, orange, lemon): again, surprisingly non bitter and non dirty tasting. Not as sweet as unicorn blood but smooth and very drinkable.
#6 — CASHEW MILK (Cashews, Cinnamon, Almond, Milk Dates): creamy slightly sweet nutty and spicy. A pleasant way to end the cleanse.
Overall I was super pleased with the whole experience — from the ease of using the website to set up the delivery, to the great communication about the delivery, to the top notch juices themselves. My new favorite juice place in the Boston area. I couldn’t be more impressed.
As for price… Well cold pressed juices are gonna be pricey, and the quality of these juices definitely warrants the cost. As someone without a juicer at home, I’m happy to splurge on an occasional nutritious good-​for-​you surprisingly tasty juice here.

Reposting under the correct address:
So by now I have tried every juice they make, breakfast bowls, two different smoothies and now the curried sweet potato lunch as well as the quinoa what dish.
All I have to say is YES! The curry was awesome and SO FILLING yesterday. I felt great all afternoon and only wanted a small dinner last night. Today I am having the quin-​what — a bowl of quinoa and beets with kale, avocado, carrots, and a tahini lime dressing i believe. SO YUM!
the people that work there are wonderful, and it has been a saving grace for myself to eat better during work hours when I get busy and don’t prepare food at home.
The place is small and everyone works really hard. They are busy from open to close it seems, so people should ease up on giving them bad service reviews — they are new and flooded during lunch time, and trying not to mess up orders. They’re extremely helpful and had explained to me that weekends they are only open Saturday to give juices and smoothies since they fill orders, themselves, for cleanses. I think for a new place and the same people each day, they deserve a break! How else does a growing business grow?
I think $ 9 on a juice that does not have added water is well worth the price also, especially considering most people spend $ 6 – 10 on crappy processed breakfast every morning anyways — as a busy culture.

You’re high if you don’t love this place. I’m an avid juicer (do 3 – 4 juice cleanses a year) so I know a good juice when I taste one. This place makes amazing juices. I’ve had the kale yeah (perfectly green yet fruity) and the unicorn blood (not just a cool name– LOVED it).
And it’s not just a juicery– they make food too! I had the forbidden rice bowl (I included a photo). It was so filling, healthy, and delicious. Unexpected yet clean flavors– I was so impressed.
And honestly, they’re prices are extremely fair for these kinds of juices. The amount of organic produce that goes into one cup is tremendous. The only problem that mother juice really has is they’re all the way in Cambridge. So I’ll be waiting patiently for them to open a Seaport/​Southie location.

Another great juicing spot! The workers are very friendly and there are a few green pressed juices on the menu, with the Kale Yes being a well balanced, not overly sweet option worth trying.
I would have liked to see a few more green options (many of the pressed juices are more fruit based and on the sweeter side, thus high in sugar albeit «good» sugar), and the price tag (almost 9 dollars for a green drink) was a shocker. I didn’t ask before hand, I just ordered and paid. This was probably the most expensive green juice purchased to date, and while I am willing to fork out the dough for that refreshing vitalization, 9 is pushing it.
Regardless of price, its great to have a juice option in the Kendall Square area.

First it was the cupcake. Then came the tangy froyo. Now the trend is on cold pressed juices. Hence, Mother Juice.
In addition to cold pressed juices, they have smoothies, acai bowls, and other crazy salads with noodles made of zucchini and carrots. I personally tried the C++ juice which despite the nerd pun was a super good carrot juice with a peppery kick. And the OMG juice was awesome too: watermelon + lemon. All the juices are made fresh in store: I saw an employee walk in with a giant bag of produce saying «they only had 48 pounds of carrots!» Take advantage of the samples to figure out what you like.
I also had an acai bowl. The menu is a little confusing but you basically create your own bowl with whatever 3 toppings you ask for, all included in the price: the trick is something fruity (strawberry), something crunchy (cacao nibs), and something buttery (almond butter).
My only complaint is that it is wayy pricey. $ 8 for a 12oz juice is not a habit I’d like to sustain.
