Jamba Juice

Very welcoming environment. This place is near where I live. They have long lines usually but the emloyees are nice at least. The drinks taste the same anywhere else.
I ordered a smoothie with a protein boost for an extra $.25. They keep the bathrooms clean and its always stocked.

I didn’t realize Jamba Juice apparently charges for boosts now because all *former* free boosts are still free at SJSU (I just found out they normally charge .25 for them today when I went to a non-​SJSU affiliated Jamba Juice and the cashier guy looked at me all funny when I asked, «wait… so they’re not free?»… Ehm, NO THANKS!). Despite being a campus historically devoid of student activism, thank you SJSU for keeping our free boosts FREE! :^) U.S.A. U.S.A.
Anyway, this is a convenient location for students. Great pick-​me-​up before class, and the staff has been nice for the most part. Lately I have been quite fond of the Pomegranate Paradise (refreshing!). Also, the drinks here come out quick. The lines are hardly ever long when I go there around 3pm (theres just like 1 or 2 students in line). Tried the Student Union Jamba Juice location the other day and its definitely much slower than this one (I was there for like 15 minutes! Not cool).
Will keep coming back to this location so long as I’m around and craving a quick smoothie (with a free boost!) before or between classes.

Really nice employees.
Fast service. This JJ had at least five people working and making smoothies so hardly any wait.
Good place to go if you skipped breakfast or lunch and don’t have time to chew. LOL
My recs: if you’re sick, get the Pomegranate Pick Me Up or Orange-​a-​Peel and add a C & Zinc boost. It really does help make you feel a little better.
I don’t skip classes unless I’m practically dying so this is always a good option when I’m feeling as useful as a doorstop.
SJSU has free Wi-Fi…as long as you’re a student there of course.

The first time I came here was during a 10 minute break from my two hour class. I asked the girls nicely if they could make me a quick matcha green tea mist because of my class. They understood and made it pronto which I throughly appreciated. This is not my usual one but it is a good stop before or after class.

As the one-​time Duke of this fine Juiciery, I proclaim that Summer time means Jamba time!
This tiny establishment with confidence as they blend with precision and care. I usually go for the Strawberry Surf-​rider or Cold-​buster. It’s smart to add some vitamins in there, but anything else tastes like grind up Tynenol. People are friendly there, no matter how late you go. So if you have the itch for something cold and refreshing, stop by MacQuarrie Hall for a Jamba.
