Robeks

I love, love, LOVE robeks!!! I always ask my mom if I can go to robeks and she often says no… But I can never make my smoothies as good as theirs! I would bathe in the smoothies, or drink a whole gallon they are so good. You always no they are fresh and made to order because you can see where they get the fruit and where they make it. I love you robeks!!!

Customer service here is the worst in the universe. 5/​2, 10:22am, the person at the register was Frank. He actually said he was the manager on duty. I’m actually surprised he’s in charge of this location!!! He offered the WORST customer service I have had in years, anywhere, in the whole world. And it takes a lot for me not to make the best of a situation!!! I had a reward card to use which if you buy 10, you get 1 free. So yay! I was pumped to use my free reward!!! I asked him what I could use it for, and he said, «I don’t know. Anything.» Okay, anything! The first thing I asked for was $ 3 out of pocket. I asked to change it to whatever was FREE – that’s the point!!! I asked again, what can I use it for. He suggested Fan Favorites, so I chose something from there. When he rung it up, it was $ 1.50 over and he asked me again for the difference. Seriously man? Okay to get this free reward, I have already probably spent $ 80 in orange juice. I’m a Starbucks gold card member, I know how this works. Free, is free. He said to me, «Well, I can’t do anything about it. There’s going to be tax.» Okay, what? Tax on what? Tax on free??? At this point, his tone was really short and flat out rude. Like hurrying me through to get to the people behind me. There were 3 other people behind me and not only did he gyp me out of a free smoothie on this lovely warm day, but he totally made me feel embarrassed in front of the other customers! I just ended up taking the card. I asked for his manager. He told me his name is James; who wasn’t in the store. I’m going to avoid this location like the plague and use my reward card at a different Robeks. I already wrote to corporate by cutting and pasting this review; nothing upsets me more than poor customer service. How difficult is it to be nice? Duh. Plus smoothies are part of a good vibration lifestyle!!! If you can’t master being nice, you have a serious problem.

I really enjoy the customer service of the lady who works in the morning, she is always pleasant and knows my drinks right when I walk in the door. They are fast and there is never a long wait, but if your worried call ahead of time so it will be ready when you walk in the door. (703)538−4111
They will put it in the freezer or frig for you so its still cold when you walk into the door.
Great service! Great drinks!

Horrible establishment! The owners are extremely rude to customers. I definitely wouldn’t recommend this particular location at all.
As a whole, Robeks has great tasting smoothies, but I don’t think it’s fair that they claim to be so healthy with the amount of sugar in most of their menu items. Take a look for yourself and choose wisely!

I stopped by on the recommendation of someone who loves this place. So i figured i would give it a shot. Since at the time I was still stuffed from breakfast I knew there was no way I could finish a smoothie so I tried one of their fresh juice options. After the first sip I thought the woman was trying to choke me out with the amount of ginger that was put into the drink! I juice myself at home and even I know the tiniest bit of ginger goes a long way. Overall I wouldnt count this place out I would just be careful ordering anything with ginger!
Like another review states the place smells of chemical when you walk in. Its nice to know they are cleaning the place on a regular basis but they should probably crack the door when they are doing it as to not assault my noise when I walk in.

Already giving this place 2 stars. Attitude AND their Acai Bowl has no option to just get it scooped. It HAS to be blended. Why not just get a smoothie then??? And their bowls here are $ 7 compared to $ 5 in other Robes I’ve been to. FORGET IT.

Yummy I love robeks! The smoothies and juices are good, and fresh ingredients. But they did raise there prices a bit higher, but it’s worth it though. I would advise coming here at least once!

Good smoothies, bad service. Only people in the store and still the cashier rushed us to order… So weird.

I’ve never been in here when there has been other people here. It’s usually me and the guy making my smoothie. Which is greeaaaat because service is quick! I get in and out in 5 minutes with no problems. Fresh ingredients each time and the taste is consistent and delicious. You can even boost your smoothies for free.
Great and convienent location in Falls Church in a small shopping strip. Good service, friendly employees and fruitalicious smoothies!

I think will only come here when INCREDIBLY DESPERATE. There is better and I’ve only come here because of the proximity to my home. Not every visit has been pathetic but they are increasing in frequency.
1) The place reeks of chemicals and bleach. Quite unappetizing. Makes me wonder what they are trying to cover up. Maybe their fruit and veggies are not so fresh or something? When produce isn’t fresh, it DOES NOT SMELL GOOD.
2) These kids could care less about the definition of customer service. When you charge someone $ 9 for a medium drink, I’d like to believe I can ask you to please blend longer or remove an ingredient. What gives? Every time I’ve asked for a little special care to my drink, I just get eye rolls. The employees act like they are doing YOU a favor by being there. I thanked the cashier and drink maker and didn’t even et eye contact or acknowledgement of the fact that I was trying to tell them THANK YOU. Who raised you???
3) They really need to be better educated about the products they are selling. I am not talking about the varieties of drinks but rather the source. I asked the girl today if their whey protein was organic. She said ‘UGH, everything here is organic.” Umm NOOOO it’s not. In fact the majority of their produce is conventional and some is GMO. I understand it’s not advertised as an organic establishment, but I expect them to be able to answer the question. And they cannot have staff that treats people like crap and clearly has no clue what food source questions mean. If she didn’t know the answer, she should NOT have said what she dod. Just sayin.
4) Is styrofoam the best option? Really? You can do better. While I’m at it, the darn lids haven’t properly fit on the cups well… EVER. All you serve are beverages in cups. You really need to figure out this basic part of your business.
As I sit here, my super sweet and poorly blended frozen beverage is melting in it’s poorly designed serving vehicle. If you’re gonna spend the money, go elsewhere. It’s healthy to juice and stuff but the best this place is for is probably when no other place is open or you want a high calorie sugary drink served with an equally piss poor attitude.

Wheat grass shots in 1 oz and 2 oz available here.
Juices and smoothies all freshly made and squeezed.
Good way to energize your day.

Going off on my Tip i posted. Yes, this store smells and reeks of chemical! So much for the healthy indulgence of our smoothie. I think they are short on employees. As I was asking questions regarding their BELLY frequent buyer program, the cashier goes «NEXT PLEASE» WHOA THERE! SOUP NAZI! Definitely not worth the attitude. I will be taking my pre workout business elsewhere!
… but if desperate times call, I will return wearing a nose cover.

I was skeptical that a smoothie as a meal would leave me satisfied. I figured they would be too high in calories and too high in sugar and that I’d crash about 3 pm because of all the carbs. Don’t get me wrong, they have some high carb options that could certainly do that. However, they have a lot of options that come in around 350 calories (in a medium) with lower carbs. Specifically, I’d suggest the Super Green made with spinach and pineapple, or the Emperor Acai. I’m not a spinach fan either, but mixed into a smoothie, it’s just fine. I also like the fact that you can have your smoothie made with Greek yogurt vs. regular non-​fat. If you add a whey protein or fiber boost, that can help balance out the carbs in your smoothie.
While the smoothies can be pricey (my usual order is around 7.50), they also have a rewards program that roughly equates to a buy 10, get 1 free system.
What don’t I like? The fact that they eliminated dairy milk and now only have soy.

Smoothie was OK but the entire store was overwhelmed with the smell of bleach. I actually left the store while the smoothie was being made because the smell was so pungent.

I’m not a fan of chain anything, but this particular Robeks stands out to me. Smoothies and juices are about the same as any other Robeks but I give this 4 stars for the following:
Frienly staff? check. Quick service? check. Clean establishment? check.

Perfect all fruit smoothie served with a smile

So I bought the Groupon offer for 4 regular smoothies for $ 10.
I realized there was a Robeks along my commute to/​from work, so this morning I decide to stop by. Hopefully looking to replace my usual stop to McDonald’s with a healthy drink here.
I didn’t really get a good vibe walking in. The intereaction between the two employees was… well…awkward. I think I’ll try this location out again and see if I can’t fit it into a normal morning commute.

This was my first Robek’s exp.
It has a good quantity of juice. Yes, JUICE! not all smoothy like that EVIL Jamba Juice. (kidding! jamba juice is good too)
This location has fast service, fast for fresh juice.
i like the ABC (Apple, Beet, Carrot) and the Ginger Snap (Orange with a great fresh ginger kick)!

I’m not really the jogging type, with the pedometer on the hip, and a gluten-​free energy bar in the back pocket. I’m more of the «hmm, I’m thirsty… maybe I should go get some fresh fruit something-​or-​other». With that said, Robeks is right up my alley.
Yes, I will gladly take the free shot of protein or wheat germ, or whatever extra-​healthy supplement that they want to throw in there. However, I am more interested in the taste. I love sweet, but the smarter side of me knows that I shouldn’t always gravitate towards sugar, even in its pure cane form. That is why I can appreciate a juice bar that uses the fresh, ripe fruits that are naturally sweet. They offer a variety but I tend to lean towards berries, mango, pineapple, etc.
I have sampled a couple of their wraps, and they were okay. I won’t complain because when you walk into such a healthy environment that promotes all-​natural vitamins, you can imagine what the sandwiches will taste like. They were good for what they were. Robeks keeps you cool, keeps you regular, and keeps me happy.

Holy crap — where has this place been all my life? For $ 4, I could get a jar of fruit and my whole day’s servings blended to my hearts content.
I liked that they would offer a free «boost» — you can add protein, bee pollen, or a host of other things that should make you feel better. As for looking better, well, that’s going to take a bit more than a smoothie, don’t you think?
I don’t recommend sitting at the first table to the left of the door — there is an A/​C vent there that will freeze your @$$ off. It never helps when you’re drinking a smoothie to be under a VERY efficient vent.
