| - I really enjoyed my post-gym trip to Clean Juice. The space itself is clean and well laid-out with some nice bistro tables outside, which is lovely in the summer.
The Clean Juice menu is really streamlined and easy to understand; every ingredient in a juice, smoothie, or bowl is listed under the name of the item. For a clean eating concept, the ability to know exactly what you are consuming along with calorie counts is a great touch. I ordered The Immunity One which contained orange, pineapple, carrot, turmeric, and lemon. For a juice that is being made to order from fresh ingredients, it came out pretty quickly. I also appreciated the fact that you could see right into the food-prep area, so you know everything is exactly as advertised: whole ingredients, no pre-made mixes, etc. The juice was delicious: a hint of tropical flavors, a vegetal bit of sweetness from the carrots, and touch of earthiness from the turmeric. Overall, it was really delicious. I can't wait to try some of the other creations that Clean Juice offers!
The only thing that I didn't like so much was the price -- $9 for a juice. However, people who are way healthier than me probably would've had that juice as their entire breakfast, while I slurped it up and strolled right to brunch. So that being said, the price is probably comparable to similar juice concepts--I just need to keep my appetite in check.
Overall, I highly recommend this spot in East Liberty!
