Pulp

Love the service, environment, and drinks!

Love it! If your vegan, let the staff know. They can make stuff to your liking. Friendly and knowledgable staff. Will be back!

Every since Hawaii, me & my wife have been trying to find a place in Jax that have acai bowls & finally found one. Thanks Pulp!

not very impressive for an organic coffee shop. slow service and not many coffee options. very good menu for juice bar and smoothies.

Environment: It was cute. Dimly lit but nice and cozy. It’s a little hard to read the menus, but the design was sleek.
Taste: I got the banana chai and the acai bowl. The banana chai was basically just a chai. I tasted no banana but the chai taste great; similar to starbs. The acai bowl, on the other hand, was nice and creamy with strawberries, bananas and granola (I’d still go to Delicomb over Pulp).
Service: It was terribly unsettling. I told them it was my first time and all I got was «Okay…» Fitting the common stereotype of health freaks looking down on the commoners that have never touched a juicer. They were pretty stuck up.
Would I ever come back? Probably not. I’d rather not run through the gauntlet just to order an smoothie. Would I eat it again? Yeah. It’s like a guilt-​free way to still have your sweets.

After lunch and shopping my mom and I wanted a smoothie and we went to Pulp. It was not busy at all and it took no time to get our drinks. They have sidewalk service and outdoor seating but you can also go inside and sit inside as well. The lady at the window was super nice and courteous as well. Their menu has a lot of dairy free options which was really nice. You can add so many tasty extras like chia seeds or flax seeds. I opted for a less healthy option and got a chocolate strawberry smoothie. It was absolutely delicious! It was made with soy milk and had kale an a little pineapple in it as well but it really tasted like a chocolate –strawberry milkshake l. It was the perfect creamy consistency, no lumps or chunks. I will definitely return for more healthy deliciousness.

Delicious smoothies! They use Nutella!!! Nutella banana almond butter organic yogurt & almond milk. Can’t go wrong!

This place is so dang cute. Love coming in here for a pick me up. Their smoothies are always delicious and fresh made right in front of you.
The staff are always willing to help you make a decision based on your preferences and are very knowledgeable about their menu. The only half complaint I have is the prices are a little high for my budget, although for the quality of the smoothies you definitely get what you pay for!

Out having Daddy /​Daughter time. Stopped for a smoothie at Pulp. I got the Black Fuel and yes it was black. The smoothie has blueberry, coconut water, mango pineapple, banana and something called spirilla. It was pretty good. Tia had banana and stawbbery which she liked. If you are in the area please give it a try.

I would give this 5 stars but there are 2 fundamental issues I have with this place.
1. The service is horrible. most of the time the employees have an attitude that is very unbecoming. When I ask a question i dont expect you to read me off the board something i just read… Also dont demand me to walk to the register to take my order…
2. I love steel cut oats. Very few if any (the only other place is Jamba Juice at UNF) place sells this. Every time I go in I get a different expierience. One day its cooked the other day its not. One day they fill it to the top. one day they are running low and still sell the product btu give you only ¼ of the cup full!!! I walked in one day and the guy obviously knew it wasn’t ready and gave me a bowl of water and steel oats… steel oats take a while to make its not instant oatmeal! i just wish for once i can go in a get the same experience and same product every time i come in.

I always enjoy Pulp and have received good service. I truly enjoy their smoothies as do some of my friends and family. I also love their yogurt. Knowing that I am eating healthy and organically makes such a difference. Their yogurt is organic and much more healthy than other frozen yogurt. So when I want to splurge, this is the healthiest way to do so. I love Pulp!

The smoothies are so fresh and so clean here. Unlike other smoothie shops, Pulp uses only the core ingredients without any added sugars or sweeteners. The fruit based smoothies like the mango colada are refreshing, and the more indulgent ones that have chocolate in them such as the chocolate chai make a perfect light dessert. Easily a please that can become part of your regular routine, as it has mine!

I went there yesterday at 9:45pm with 3 friends. We drove from the beach area. The goes of this place is wrong on Unilocal,and Google.
They suppose to be open till 11. I was very very pissed off to say the least. Not to mention the wasted money on gas and our time. I will definitely not be going back and will tell 20 more people not to go back.
I know it’s not San Diego things close way to early in this crazy town. I guess if I need my fix for an Acai bowl I will look elsewhere or make my own.
Feeling cheated and disappointed.

Here’s what I don’t love about Pulp:
The service isn’t overly friendly. The juices are centrifuged rather than cold-​press so they don’t keep throughout the day. Most juice bars I go to have a grab-​n-​go type bottled juice option, but Pulp doesn’t.
But here’s what I do love: the juice. I love the flavor of the juices so much — it’s such a great, quick, healthy alternative to the food on the go I normally get while traveling for work. I haven’t ventured away from the juice menu yet. I keep saying I will, but they keep pulling me back in.

First time coming to this shop and absolutely Love this place! Made with fresh ingredients and they have organic options! Very healthy and love how it’s not over-​sweetened! I got the Chocolate Chai and the Kale Aid.
Chocolate Chai was really good. The taste was evened out between the chocolate and chai (organic). Not too sweet and not too bland. Just how I like it :) They also used chocolate soy milk, banana, and organic frozen yogurt, and Nutella. Blended very well and came out smooth.
The Kale Aid was very delicious! Blending very well with strawberries, banana, kale, and I think blueberries (I don’t know remember). Overall, really liked it and it get it again!

It’s 9:55 on Friday and you are closed?!! Unilocal tricked me!
Hours posted on door and on Unilocal say open till 11pm!
What’s going on?

What a cool joint! Stepped in for a coffee in between meetings. Service was outstanding and friendly. Espresso was delicious.
Didn’t go there for a smoothie but next time I will — I think they have about 40 varieties. Landi (one of the baristas) even made a custom one for someone while I was there.
Seating is limited but they do have free wi-​Fi.
Great alternative to Five-bucks…er, that other coffee shop.

I love getting fresh juice from this place.
It’s super tastey and I really like that it’s so healthy. I feel like I’m doing something good for myself when I get juice here.

I remember learning about Pulp when I first started juicing at home. However, San Marco was a long way to drive for a cup of juice. When I found out they offer juice cleanses, I had to find out more information. Have you ever seen how much actually goes into one glass of juice? It’s cray-​cray.
Between biscuits & beer for dinner and a recent visit to the Quest Diagnostics Center, I knew I had to get my butt in gear. I went for a run and wanted to get out of the house while hubby was at work so I decided to venture on over and see what Pulp was pressing. I had seen the San Marco Elixir online and know I wanted something to kick my digestion/​immune system into gear so that’s what I went with.
The mix of fruits and veggies was well balanced and the garlic & ginger added just the right amount of zing to my morning beverage. The girls behind the counter were super sweet & I plan to stop in more often when I’m in the area. Wi-​Fi would be a nice added bonus, and while It’s common, I know not everyone can offer it.

My previous review of Pulp was, in my opinion, one-​dimensional. Yes, they offer organic frozen yogurt by the ounce with virtually any topping you could think to include (unless you’re one of those people who does weird things with fro-​yo and if that’s the case, skip right over this…).
Having established myself in the San Marco area now (and maybe after having broadened my palette to accommodate more than the diet of a 12 year old child), I’ve gotten to see the many offerings of this sweet little San Marco Square treat.
If you, reader, ever have the opportunity, I recommend just sitting and observing the smörgåsbord of options these people put together. Seriously, just walk in, tell them what you’re interested in, let them make it for you, and just watch what the other patrons order. This place screams eclectic.
The aforementioned frozen yogurt situation is lovely, but then they have essentially any fresh juice you could possibly imagine. They also offer about 2 dozen different smoothie combinations (and I bet if you asked real nice they’d put together something not on the menu for you too) along with organic beer and wine and fresh local coffee prepared your choice of one of several different ways including french press, Turkish style or hand drip.
They also offer a 28 day juice cleanse. The pricing seems a little steep, but then consider that a) you don’t have to infiltrate your refrigerator with enough produce to feed a small 3^rd world country for a month straight, b) said produce would quite easily cost just as much (have you seen how much fruit/​veggies go into a single serving of juice?!), c) no cleanup.
Pulp established a loyalty program where you buy 9 drinks and get 1 free. I assure you, this is not a difficult accomplishment. This place covers every meal (or replacement meal) and every craving in between. Check it out.
