| - I've been to 24 Carrots twice now. The first time was a slow Monday afternoon in mid-December. The place is cute and very welcoming. I like that you can sit at a table or at the couch. They were out of carrot cake, so we bought a carrot muffin instead. It tasted good but was a bit on the dry side. We ordered two smoothies: strawberry fields forever and orange dreamsicle. Straberry fields was yummy, but the orange dreamsicle tasted like a bland berry smoothie (where was the orange?).
Our last visit was this past weekend. We ordered the hummus plate. The hummus was good (though I wouldn't call it "SUPER addictive"), the pita was fresh, and veggies were crisp and tasty. We tried to get a pumpkin pie smoothie, but they were out of pumpkin. Then we ordered the chocolate pie and were told they were out of vegan yogurt. We said that was fine, could they add some peanut butter? Sure. It came to us as a liquidy drink...not a smoothie. It was like chocolate milk...we didn't order vegan chocolate milk. We commented on how liquidy it was and were then told that, oh by the way, they were also out of vegan protein powder, which would have made it thicker. We asked him to add a banana, to which he obliged. He returned our drink, and it wasn't much thicker but did have a bit more taste. Not something I would ever recommend.
If I go here again, I'll have to try an actual meal, because I haven't been impressed with their smoothies. Tip to the owner: offer one or two green smoothies (spinach) or spinach as an add-in in addition to the veggie green juices.
