Nekter Juice Bar

I went here recently and noticed there was a dispute btwn a girl and a shorter, bald guy at the register. He was being very unprofessional and rude toward her and it made me uncomfortable. Other than that, the smoothies are wonderful.

Came here after a hike and the staff is very friendly, energetic and they give you a good welcoming feeling.
If you ask for recommendations they are very knowledgeable on the ingredients on all drinks and will have a great recommendation on a drink.
Great service.

Came here today with a group of 9 people and ordered 5 bowls and 2 smoothies. We got our bowls fairly fast but the bad part about this place is that it took us at least 20 minutes to get our smoothies. They even delivered bowls to the two groups who came in after us before we got our smoothies. Not only that, the cashier asked us what type we got when we asked where one of the smoothies were. Pretty bad service. The 2 stars were for the good food but they should definitely hire some more efficient staff cause I will not be returning here again.

Great juice and friendly staff. Always come here when I need a boost! I have done the regular juices and the 1 – 3 day cleanses. Both are great. I would say that the cleanse is perfectly priced. I’ve done other ones that were more expensive, but this one was far superior

After waiting in line for over 15 minutes with only two people ahead of me when I walked in, I left. Seriously get your shit together! Over Nekter’s!

I bought several cups and gift cards. A cup comes with one free drink. I had to inform the ignorant employee. So what he did was rip paper and wrote ice free drink… What a joke

Great place to stop and pick up a smoothie or juice on your way to Laguna. We stopped to get smoothies for the family before we set up at laguna and thought the service was fast and friendly. The kids liked the chocolate smoothies and I enjoyed The Cure juice. Prices aren’t as expensive as some other juice places.

Good juice, but employee did not honor the «$ 1 off for check-​in» promotion posted on Unilocal for four people in our group that checked in, which is kind of false advertising and annoying…

If you want a fast juice, come to this location! They are fast! By the time the cashier hands me my receipt, my juice is done and ready for me! I could drink and eat HERE everyday!!! They have the best specialty drinks that is exclusive to this store– and its fun!!! I love the pitaya bowl! The staff here is so friendly, they are always very accommodating!!! The manager is also very personable.

GRÜB GOTT!!! I come to this Nekter about 5 times a week, it’s a perfect location since I work right down the street from it. Seriously, some of the sweetest people in this city. They make the best Toxin Flush, Sublimes and Chocolate Dreams!!! its the perfect dessert-​substitute ;) They know me by name and every time I walk in, they say hello! and send out really good vibes. There’s this one guy, i think his name is Grant, that says goodbye to me in German each time and it always makes me day! DANKE!!! AUF WIEDERSEHEN!!! :)

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND SAVE YOURSELF FROM THE EXPOSURE TO
SUCH NEGATIVE VIBES.
I am a weekly Nekter goer and I have never met such unfriendly workers, surprising for beach cities. It was my first visit to this Nekter and my last.
#1 no greeting or your welcomes when I said thank you so much
#2 the cashier literally threw my card onto the counter back at me
#3 he left my stamp card on his side of the counter so I had to reach over and grab it (couldn’t just hand it to me)
#4 while our drinks were being made the cashier (hope he was the manager) was sitting at the front while the other guys hustled and sat on his phone.
#5 I have never had such a white chocolate dream in the past couple years with Nekter, since I started going to the Nekter @ Seal Beach. When we tried our drinks and asked if we could add a little cacao (which we both already felt weird asking), he said «their powder got lighter, that’s just how it looks» we responded with it doesn’t taste the same and he said something along the lines of «they changed our powder (???) so that’s just how it is»
#6 we asked again, that since we paid over $ 7 for these huge drinks, if they could just add some more cacao, the guy behind the bar said, well I made it right with more unnecessary attitude.
I genuinely cannot understand why, when people work in customer service, and two friendly 20 somethings come in straight from the beach, at the beach, you must be so rude for absolutely no apparent reason.
I would definitely look into stepping up your game at this location.

I go here most days for my breakfast before work. All of the employees are very nice, they know my name and order when I walk in. The smoothies, juice and bowls are always consistently delicious. Love this place so much!

Skip this Nektar and go to the Aliso Viejo or Corona DeL Mar one. Cashier is very short with customers, no greeting, no smile and generally unfriendly to people.
If I owned this location, I’d be in here retraining my employees.

Was craving a sweet and juicy treat before heading back home after a long day at divers cove and this place popped up on Unilocal.So we thought we would give it a try!
The Good: everything here is super healthy! For an outdoorsist such as myself hell-​bent on keeping my body in too condition, I fell in love! We got a huge Pink flamingo to share, shocked that they had pitaya on the menu! The quality is good and the drink was perfect: not too sweet, not too nutty. Kept me wanting more! We finished a 32oz in minutes. The menu Is easy to find and they happily answer questions you may have.
The OK: felt really out of place. We walked in in our swimwear with t-​shirts over and everyone else was in tennis uniforms or were older adults, definitely a different feel from the Huntington Beach style I grew up with. The prices were a little pricey, just a bit more than juice it up or jambs juice… But you can REALLY taste the healthiness in it so I guess it’s a fair trade.
Super happy they also has reserved parking spaces for their customers only because everywhere else was PACKED!
All in all, a good place. I’ll be back, just wish it was more welcoming. :)

Love Nekter in Laguna! I go here at least 4 – 5 times a week for a Greenie or Ginger shot. Its the perfect spot to hit before heading to the beach. The PB Acai bowl is really great too.

3.5 would be best suitable for Nekter Juice. My cousin and I came here on a weekend because she was obsessed with acai bowls. This particular location has its own small lot parking and also metered street parking right off of Broadway. The location was clean, well-​stocked, and had everything you could ask for at a smoothe-​type café.
She ordered the sublime and a berry acai bowl while I ordered some kind of tropical smoothie of sorts. If you’re used to Jamba Juice or Robeks, you should note that these smoothies taste very differently from your usual fruit smoothies — they usually have vegetables blended in with them, making them über healthy. This immediately turned my cousin off who is not really of the health conscious type other than her acai bowl. However, this review isn’t based on whether we enjoy kale or not.
One star down for the employees here being friendly but slow. There were at least 4 people working in the back and it still took a while to get our drinks and bowl out. Also, there wasn’t anything particularly spectacular about this place that made it memorable enough for me to want to go back. It was just meh.

Nicely located on Laguna Canyon about a block or so from the beach. They have a small side parking lot with free parking. After paying $ 15 to hike and another handful of quarters to eat breakfast, was happy to not have to pay for parking to get a juice! They have a small menu of crafted juices, with the option to create you own juice from a list a very limited items (compared to say mothers market). I got the Buzz and it was pretty good! My friend that I went with said she’s tried a few others and all were pretty decent.

Been shopping at shops down on PCH and decided to stop by this juice bar to buy some refreshing drinks for my son and I.
Glad to know that they use real fruits; their concept is kinda of like Jamba Juice. I ordered their Strawberry Banana Burst. Drinking this feels like I fulfilled my daily fruits intake! I think that this place has more fruits in their drinks than Jamba.
I like the fact that this juice bar is all about good foods and being healthy. They offer different kinds of cleansing drinks too!
The only negative is that their coconut juice is not fresh. They use the brand Young coconut, and as we all know, that’s frozen coconut juice with a lot of sugar!

I come get nekter after going on hikes with my friends. My friend’s aren’t a huge fan of juicing so they don’t like this place! However, I on the other hand am usually juicing so i like it!
I would have to say that my favorite juice is the toxic flush.
Toxin Flush juice– parsely, spinach, apples, lemon and ginger. It is an acquired taste but I really really like it but my friends don’t understand how I drink it.
Tropical cooler smoothie– a purée of spinach, kale, pineapple, banana, coconut butter and coconut water. pretty good !
Acai PB– acai, bananas, dates, frozen strawberries, peanut butter, and raw vanilla bean cashew nutmilk blended together and topped with hemp seed granola and bananas. Way too many strawberries and I think there needs to be more peanut butter in it. You can barely taste it. Needs some work.
I’m not a fan of their acai bowls because I think they are really sweet. I will come back for their juices and smoothies.

I’m a huge Nekter fan and usually go to the Laguna Niguel one, but to have this new Nekter location by the beach sounded wonderful!
I ordered the Tropical Cooler as I like the sweeter smoothies more than the juices and it was delicious! Service was quick and very friendly. It’s smaller than the one in LN but I think it makes sense, being right by the water why not just take your drink to-​go?
