TLDR: Shakes are really good, great customer service, kept the door open for us to grab something with about 10 minutes before scheduled closing time. Call ahead if you want to grab something if its close to closing time.
When my partner and I decided that we wanted to grab a juice late on a rainy Sunday, we saw that Jenny on the Greens was open but closing soon. We hopped on our bikes and headed to the spot, and sadly, saw that the store was closed about 10-15 minutes early.
Andre profusely apologized and told us if we had called, he would have happily kept the shop open for us. We told him that we understood, and he asked what side of town we lived at. When he heard how far we had traveled (from the south side of Prospect Park), he smacked his teeth and demanded that we come inside, saying he would feel terrible if he didn't make us one of his best smoothies.
We were so happy that he made this accommodation that we told him to make whatever was the most convenient, easy-to-make thing that would be tasty. He insisted that we have the #30 shake, his best seller, and that while it was full of several fresh ingredients that required him to almost reopen half his kitchen, he would be doing us a disservice if we did not have one of the most delicious options on his menu.
Andre was not lying - the shake hit the spot. It was filling, didn't make me feel too gassy like some protein shakes often do, and we made a new friend. We sat outside enjoying the strangely cool June evening, and Andre actually suggested we go hang out at the bar next door if we were cold. As he finished closing his shop, another person walked by and said hello to Andre, letting us know that our experience wasn't unique, and that Andre and his shop were truly one of the spots that serve the...
Read moreJenny On The Greens is hands down one of the best juice and salad bars in Crown Heights! The moment you walk in, you can feel the care and love they put into everything from the warm service to the freshness of the ingredients.
Their smoothies and cold-pressed juices are absolutely delicious refreshing, balanced, and never too sweet. I had the # 5
What I love most is their mission: bringing affordable, organic, plant-based options to the neighborhood. It feels good supporting a spot that not only values quality but also community wellness.
Whether you’re grabbing a quick juice on the go or sitting down for a nourishing salad, this place always delivers. A real gem on Franklin Ave...
Read more5 stars isn't enough to rate this spot. I have never tasted patties as good as theirs. They're so filling. Sometimes, when I get off of work, I don't feel like cooking, I grab two patties for lunch. Usually, the chicken and lentil. They're so delicious and tasty. The prices are also decent. Everyone I purchased a pattie for loves them. My grandson is five years old, and he loves them too. The store is always clean, and that's a plus. Andre and his father are so nice and well-mannered. I could be having a bad day, and I always leave their store with a smile. Andre moves fast and gets the customers going. Please stop by this establishment; you will...
