The Gulch

Everything is super fresh and tasty, but it's simple, takes a long time and is not cheap. I'm grateful for the convenience to the hotel and work when I am in town, but definitely adds up quickly. I love the juices and usually grab a handful to enjoy during the week when I am in town.

Amazing juice! The workers weren't very pleasant. However the juice was worth it and the price is pretty good for fresh juice.

If you have allergies, beware!

My daughter and I were visiting Nashville recently and saw the store and decided to stop in. We were the only ones in the store but strangely the food and drinks took forever, as the person who took our order disappeared, leaving one person to take care of our order and what we figured out later a couple of online orders.

But the big thing for me was, I told the person who took my order that I have an allergy to apples and confirmed my drink wouldn't have any apples and wouldn't use a juicer that was used for juicing apples. She was polite about it but I think failed to pass it onto the other person working? As I was drinking my juice, my mouth and throat immediately started itching which is sign of an allergic reaction for me. I went over to the person who fixed my drink and asked about the presence of apple in my juice or in the machine. They confirmed there wasn't any apple in my juice but said "Oh, I don't know" when asked about the machine. I promptly threw it out but it was too late. I felt miserable for the rest of the day. Thankfully this allergy is not life threatening.

The food was fine but lacking substance, especially for the high prices.

One last thing - it is a privately owned business so what the owners do is up to them but they should advertise that they are a Christian juice bar. I was really put off by the "I run on Jesus and Juice" t-shirt hanging on the wall and the scripture printed on my cup. I don't need religion mixed in with the food/juice I purchase. Had I known, we would have gone elsewhere. If that's your thing, go for it.

I got there around 10 am on a Friday, there wasn't anyone there, literally. I was there waiting some good 5 minutes till I had to say " excuse me", and later on someone came out. The worker was nice but even though I even saw how she made my smoothie it tastes like water, and only the toppings give it some flavor, and of course it didn't look like the picture showed it, so I went back inside to ask for some toppings and she was nice enough to put more topping which was really surprising. I sat outside which was really nice.

I've been to this location before as I work in the Capitol View area, however today was the worst experience I've ever had. The Berry Bowl I ordered was AWFUL. It was clear they did not put much effort into it as it was barely even blended all the way. My bowl had frozen chunks all throughout and a weird looking light-colored "goo" in the purple that was not blended (I assume to be un-blended banana). To pay $15.24 & have such a poor quality bowl is sad and they made no effort to fix unfortunately. I'm pretty disappointed :/

If you like flavored water, you will love the smoothies here.

For some reason when ordering online a secret menu appears that none of the staff seem to know about.

I Love Juice Bar is much better.

My favorite is the Berry Bowl! It's a must have whenever I come to Nashville! These are a great summer time treat!

Honestly, I'm not the type of person to leave poor reviews, but I paid nearly $20 for an açai bowl, which seemed pretty steep even for a good acai bowl... which this one wasn't. It was pretty flavorless, there were no topping options other than basic granola and fruit, the only positive I can really say is that it was something to eat to make me not as hungry as I was when I came in. But considering that's what you would pay for an entrée at a restaurant, it's definitely not worth what they charged.

Sincerely,
Bummed and still kinda hungry.

We had lunch here. I got a veggie wrap- they have gluten free wraps! & my husband had an acai bowl.

PROS: many gluten free options, & my wrap was very good. I'd get it again.

CONS: the restaurant was stifling hot. I was sweaty just from waiting for my food. We ate outside though so that worked out fine. My husband said his acai bowl was mediocre & he would sooner go somewhere else for one. He noted a lack of flavor.

Every time I have come here they seem to not have it figured out. 10+ people always waiting. It takes over 30 minutes to get anything, even a juice. No worth it tbh
