Green Monkey

The Green Monkey bar is a juice bar mainly, situated in the center of town. I had never heard of it until my girlfriend told me about it and dragged me in. I loved it. The choice is huge, with the options to have a smoothie of just one or even 4 fruits together. A wide selection of fruit to choose from and they even had suggestions depending on what fruit they had that day and what would be a good combination, at no charge if you didn‘t like it. The staff were extremely friendly, laid back and fun. They were interested in getting you to come back again and again and this is where the sticking point is for me. Although the selection of drinks is great, the location isn‘t and unless you travel into town and park you cannot just nip in. It‘s a shame because a franchise would be great, with not just fruit smoothies available but also chocolate bar smoothies too. Oreos, Crunchies, Mars Bars and Bountys, there is a huge choice of what to mix up and they really are tasty although they can be pricey considering you are just mashing up 2 chocolate bars together, which at a combined cost would probably be no more than a £1.
All in all a great place for a refreshing drink, especially in the summer and they count as 2 or 3 of your 5 a day. Although unfortunately the same cannot be said for the Oreo milkshake!
