Freshly Squeezed — Restaurant in Toronto

I was dying of thirst when I was thinking I need something refreshing and fruity. With a few choices in Yorkdale, I figure I'd stray from my favourite Village Juicery and try a new spot. Well, that was a lesson learned.

Let's just be honest and say that Freshly Squeezed is like any other fast food spot in a mall. It's hurried, rushed, possibly not the best at listening, and you're seen as a transaction. If you get a 'hi', it's considered a near miracle. I dont even think the staff talked once to me.

For a mall drink, the prices are slightly more than some other places but they do claim that they're real fruit in there. Whether it's real fruit from frozen or actual cut up I don't know but they're in same containers you hold those frozen Slurpees in.

I ordered a Mango Smoothie and was utterly confused on what happened next. There was no confirmation but the person just took a cup and poured a bunch of the juice in there and then added a bunch of ice cubes. How ... is... that a smoothie? A smoothie by definition is fruit pureed with a dairy product. Sometimes milk and other times yogurt? So this was confusing and $7, I got my drink within a few minutes of blending in the ice.

Mango "smoothie" - So this may have real fruit ... I'm not sure but it definitely has sugar in it. Wow, was this sweet. Ripe mangoes do not need any sugar so I'm only assuming they're using under ripe frozen ones. Maybe the sugar wasn't so bad as it got me through slalom the slow people in the mall hallways. Aside from the sugar high, it tasted like mangoes mostly and it was pretty filling. Still would have liked the real deal though. I also think they need to rethink their menu... this isnt a smoothie. It's a slushie and if you're only doing slushies, you got to drop the prices. 3/5

I think this place convinced me that the extra $4 for a drink that is made with fresh and ripe fruit is worth it. Sure I save a few bucks but I can also blink afterwards and not recover from a...

How is this place operational? Worst employees ever. Either they are treated badly or they are under paid. They just didn’t want to work. There was a big line up, there were four employees in the store and they were all lost as hell. There was only one guy actually making the orders. The others were either cleaning or standing staring in space. Ironic that The juice machine was broken And it’s called freshly squeezed. I ordered something I didn’t want just because I needed a cold drink. cancelled my order after waiting for 15 minutes and there were 5 people waiting before me for their drinks. Absolutely not acceptable. If the owner doesn’t want the place to run this location should close. No one will even know...

The cashier wearing a hijab charged me $8.45, and I handed over $20.45, meaning I should have received $12 in change. However, they incorrectly entered the amount given and insisted on giving me less change. Despite our attempts to clarify the mistake before they even made the drink, the supervisor failed to understand and again twice tried to shortchange me. This experience was frustrating and it raises concerns about either a lack of basic math skills or dishonest practices. Please ensure your staff is properly trained to...
