Jugo Juice

I prefer Jamba Juice, but this Jugo is located right close to work in the PATH, so I find myself gravitating here every once in a while. Their smoothies are pretty solid — especially the fruity, lactose-​free ones. The sandwiches and wraps are typically cold and soggy.
The service here is always fantastic — the staff is always cheery and and friendly no matter how work-​grumpy I am.

The sandwiches are very bland (I had the veggie flat bread), very high in calories 500 – 700, expensive $ 7 for something relatively small and had absolutely no flavour or uniqueness. In addition, they won’t make you one without cheese even when I said I was allergic (I’m not). Cashier/​manger guy was pretty miserable too.
Smoothies are nothing fancy, I could have made the same mini-​strawberry smoothie for 50 cents at home rather than spending $ 4.
I used the ½ price certificate I bought on some discount website and am very glad I did. This meal was barely worth ½ price let alone the full $ 12 so
I’m extra glad I decided to only buy 1 certificate.
If you are looking for a quick sandwich lunch, go to Subway for freshness and best cost around $ 5 for a foot long of if you want uniqueness go to Druxies or Fit For Life — at least those taste like something slightly more original than bread, red pepper and cream cheese, something you can make at home for $ 1-​$ 2.

Maybe drinking healthy smoothies and juice IS really good for you. There is one lady who works here that smiles all the time. No matter what time of day. Early in the morning. Right before they close. She is chipper and smiling. Since there are so many locations in the downtown core and they all have the same shakes, I would say she is 90% the reason I go. The other 10% is that, unlike Booster Juice, Jugo has a wide variety of smoothies without any milk products. That is perfect for my lactose-​intolerant greedy belly.

Very pleasant and efficient service. The gentleman knew exactly the amount of protein in the protein shakes and blended mine quick and without excess. He prepared a shot and a half of wheatgrass for me but only charged me for a shot. Thanks. I think the shakes are tastier than the other major shake company… and the Extra Protein Shake and a separte shot of wheatgrass, while having more protein than a comperable shake at the other place, was 80 cents cheaper than the other place.
