Smoothie King — Restaurant in Columbus

9/28/25 My 1st experience ever at a Smoothie King. Waited on them to open. The young lady working was there alone. She was very nice, but had a nose ring in that she kept touching, rearranging or whatever she was doing and didn’t have on any gloves. I think that there needs to be consistency with hygiene and if piercings are allowed they need to be covered it you have a habit of checking them often. HOWEVER went back the following week same day same time. Different worker, masked & gloves on, switched out between orders she was exceptional. She was older, probably cooks at home may have been a Mgr. She was pleasant, understood food safety, hygiene and my bowl was outstanding. Consistency, check the cameras often when leaving employees alone to make sure they are keeping up these...

So I give this location a 5 Star because I come here all the time but the 1 Star for service because of the person taking my order this time . It made me sick to the point I couldn't drink my smoothie . The person that took my order was disgusting he smelled like he hasn't showered in weeks I could smell underarms bad and he was wearing a dirty face mask it completely ruined my appetite and if he is there next time I come in I'll just leave . Usually its girls that take my order and they are always awesome and sweet and polite and professional I hope this person doesn't work...

Grumpy and rather rude service person who said they didn't have aningredients for the bowls, when I was excited from the pictures, and told me she didn't know the difference between organic and inorganic coffee (I thought all coffee was inorganic ... yes, duh me!). 1st time visiting this Smoothie King. Removing this place from my list of especially keen places to go. Love food adventures and the people who work there, but sadly, not this venue. ...
