Nekter Juice Bar — Restaurant in Meridian

I had been in before and thought I would try it again and order the same as before, an Orange Crush. First. The place wasn't busy, but my smoothie took at least 20+ minutes to get because the high-school girls working behind the counter could not focus on making anything and were deeply involved in discussing their school drauma. They made a bowl instead of a smoothie and then caught their mistake, and poured it into a cup. Then one of the girls took my completed order to the back room instead of handing me my smoothie. I moved to the other side of the bar in attempt to see what was going on with my drink and then another girl approached me and asked if she could help me. I explained that I had ordered one smoothie and then it was taken to the back room and I was a little confused because no one else had disappeared for several minutes with completed orders. Everything is made infront where everyone can see the process, not in the back room where their dirty dishes go. No one could tell me why my order disappeared. Then the girl that took it mysteriously to the back, walked back through the door and handed it to me. I reluctantly took one drink on my way out the door and tossed it in the first garage can I could find. It was so gross. They definitely did something to it despite me leaving a nice cash tip at the time i place my order. Stay away from this place. Something isn't right there.

The store has cameras. I hope the owner sees this review and takes a look at what is going on with customers drinks and what happened to mine on 1/1/2025...

There we were, just visited the nutrishop next door. My wife was a little hangry, but luckily had some Greek yogurt, but alas she was spoonless. Thinking quickly we knew this place had the best acai bowls in the business complex, we hopped right in and asked if we could use one. They were super gracious and friendly and gifted us with the one thing we desperately needed, a spoon.

We went back to the car, and a sense of horror struck us like a home run in the NFL. She has left the Greek yogurt in her car. These lovely people from the Nekter Juice Bar let us borrow one of their precious spoons, yet in the end we had no use, I greatly apologize for that Nekter.

For the last 2 weeks that spoon has been sitting in my center consol just being the absolute chillest spoon ever. We have had our laughs, we have had our cries. I have named him Spence, and needless to say me and Spence the Spoon have become the greatest of friends.

Quite literally met the rudest and weirdest people i’ve ever encountered today at this place. Completely empty. No reason to be rude or grumpy right? Walk in and the emo girl is speaking in a whisper, basically ignoring us. Acted like we were causing her problems just by existing. I think she’d be a better fit at a mortuary. Looked at us like we weren’t supposed to be there or something. And when we say thank you, and leave saying goodbye. we were met with the coldest, meanest, quite scary, dead looks on our way out with no response. where do you find these people??? was it their first day on planet earth?? As a service worker myself I gotta say i’m disappointed in the lack of just general social skills lacked here. Waffles...
