I've been on a bit of a Tropical Smoothie bender for going on two years now. My Tropical Smoothie debut occurred at the Fording Island Rd. location, and I instantly added it to my weekly rotation of lunch destinations. Living in the Okatie area, I was thrilled to hear last year that another location was coming to the Hardeeville area. This was a true bright spot in the year 2020. With the added convenience of the drive through window and proximity to my homestead, the frequency of my Tropical Smoothie outings have increased to twice weekly. Another important note to make is the order accuracy through the App by the staff here at the Hardeeville location. My go-to order is an Acai Boost with half turbinado and the chicken caprese sandwich NO tomato. Since a young lad, I have despised tomatoes. I'm not sure if its related to the fact that scholars continue to insist that it's a fruit when clearly we're dealing with a vegetable, or if the flavor profile just doesn't suit my palate. The point being, I down right DO NOT like them, and the staff at Tropical Smoothie has not even once faltered on the accuracy of my order. Order precision like that is respected and sought after.
Keep...
Read moreOrdered on line was there 2 mins after my pick up time, was not greeted when I walked in. Stood there for 15 mins without anyone acknowledging me, not even a sorry we will be right with you. But acknowledged the person that came in a few mins after me. The 3 ladies there didn't even look at me. I get it you are busy, & maybe short staffed, but they just kept making smoothies for the 3 people at the table & the drive thru, and not 1 of them apologizing for the wait. I will NEVER go to the hardeeville place again.
The staff at the folding island rd are always polite, they greet you when you walk in & tell you to have a good day when leaving. And if they are busy, they will make the attempt to let you know they will be right with you. I wasn't looking to get waited on as soon as I walked in, just a hello, and not leave me standing for 15 mins without even saying anything to me. I'll drive the extra time to go to folding island...

9AUG2025: Order Peanut butter cup add whey (same order every visit). Could not finish consuming shake due to blend quality (to thick ice chunks/almost half a banana unblended) I can still see pieces of banana on my lawn from dumping out the shake.
10AUG2025: Same order and man the quality hits different for sure!!! PEACH (asked her to write her name on my cup) created a TOP QUALITY consumable shake. Silky smooth through out. Talk about MASTER CLASS quality ;). I guess you could say this “shake would bring all the boys to the yard”…shrug.
THANKYOU Peach & Sunday-Funday Crew....
