Arden’s Garden

This is a great locally owned business that you should patronize! The employees are always impossibly bubbly and helpful.
Now, at first glance, it may seem this store sells the exact same juices as nearby Kroger sells. Semi true, but all the juices sold inside this and any Arden’s store are all unpasteurized.
The ginger is a great thing to take if you’re recovering from or fighting a sickness.
Don’t waste your time on places like Smoothie King or Robek’s; this place is the real deal.

Signage is easy to miss.
It’s in a small plaza with 4 shops that have the same washed out beige tone logos that looks like business buildings.
Inside was clean and service was great.
No one was there at the time when a group of 6 of had went. Everyone ordered their drinks and was satisfied.
I stayed away from the specialty drinks since they had a much of ginger or spinach taste and created my own with pineapple juice as a base and mango, peaches, and chua seeds. Pretty tasty and refreshing after 2 hour of knockerball. Just the energy booster I needed.
Learned that they also have mystery juice bottles which they combine the left overs of the drinks they make. Sounds and looks pretty gross but they say some people enjoy it. For $ 1.50, I believe, guess it’s not a bad chance to take for those that are adventurous.

What can I say: I have a long-​time obsession with Arden’s. Love the juices, love the people who work there! It’s fast, healthy and portable. And, reasonably priced.
My favorites are Yoga 1, Cranberry Apple Orange, Tangerine, and any smoothie combo! Also, if you pull a bottle off the shelf, they will mix it into your smoothie!

I’m a big fan of Arden’s Harden, so much so that while visiting the ATL, I’ll usually try to book a Hotel not far from one of their locations. If there’s a single downfall, it’s that they don’t have locations everywhere in the U.S. they do have an online delivery service which is nice though.
What’s great about AG is that they offer such great variety in juices. I can’t think of a better way to start the day than doing their Grand Slam Shots which consists of a shot of pure pressed Wheatgrass, Cranberry, Lemon, and Ginger. It’s a fantastic booster during your busy work day.
The selection of juices at Arden’s is top notch. The spinach slam is probably my favorite, but u can’t go wrong with any of the drinks here. Make sure to try some of their desserts to go. The berry squares and fuzzy kisses are really good and guilt free.

I’ve always bought my Arden’s from Whole Foods. I decided to do the Love the Liver Cleanse and had to go to the store in order to get what I needed. I found the staff to be marginally knowledgeable. I actually answered a customer’s question because I had seen the answer online in my research. I was also very disappointed (granted it was my fault for not checking) because I got home and started my cleanse two days later only to find that a few of the juices had already past their «best by» date. That means they literally should have been consumed the day I bought them… I will still shop there, but I also will make sure I check the dates on the bottled juices before purchasing.

Arden’s does Green Juice right! I’ve been to other juice bars where the quality is not as great and the greens used (ie spinach, kale, etc) are visually unappealing in the display case. I had the exact opposite experience at Arden’s. Everything is neatly organized, fresh and dated for proof.
I liked how they allowed you to pick 2 – 3 fruits to accompany your greens. Everyone has different taste buds, so to be able to customize is preferred.
A tip to keep your juice low in cals and sugar is to use their housemade ph base, versus sugar base juice or coconut water. Doubles up on the nutrients and naturally!
Wish I had one closer to where I stay in Marietta, I would visit more often.

Arden’s garden in Sandy Springs is a great place to go for fresh juices. I go there when I don’t have enough fruits and veggies to make my own juices. The juice with beets and ginger is my favorite. The staff is very nice and knowledgeable too.

This place is the best! Its super clean when you walk in. They have good music playing and service is always great.
I love the Cha Cha Cherry, Super Green, Opps, Pump Up, Yoga 1 is okay not my favorite tho.
Key Tip!
When choosing a drink, Look at the date. If the exp date is within a week I wouldn’t get the drink if I were you. The drinks are made fresh and the closer it gets to the exp date the less fresh the drinks are.

This is my go-​to place for smoothies. I work literally right around the corner and I usually get a smoothie 2 – 3 times a week for lunch.
The thing that sets Arden’s Garden apart from chains like Planet Smoothie or Smoothie King is that you actually know what’s going in your smoothie. They use REAL fruit (not fruit flavorings that are advertised as «real fruit» like the other two companies I mentioned). Upon request, they will also add spinach, kale, chia seeds, soy protein powder, etc. They also have wheatgrass, lemon, and ginger shots.
I usually only get my smoothies from Arden’s Garden but one time a couple of weeks ago I was right by a Planet Smoothie and decided to grab a smoothie from them. It was called the Passion something. They started off by throwing some frozen bananas in the blender so I think to myself,“ok, this doesn’t seem too bad” Next, the guy took the blender over somewhere that was blocked from view by a wall. I stretched to see what he was doing and saw he was squirting all these different flavorings into the smoothie. No telling what was in there. Don’t get me wrong, the smoothie was good, but it felt like I had just drank a 1 lb. bag of sugar.
So that’s why I prefer Arden’s Garden over any of these other places.

if you’re a health fanatic and you shop at stores like trader joes and whole foods, then you’ll be very familiar with the name: «arden’s garden». it’s very similar to the drink brand, «naked».
the only difference between the one sold at those particular stores and the actual arden’s garden store is. the independent store makes the drinks fresh! it’s fresh, whether it’s bottled or made by order (via cup). therefore, the juices sold at an independent arden’s garden store has no preservatives and all that bad nonsense!
the staff here are very friendly and helpful. they’re always smiling and happy to greet you. or even break down some of the stuff in their store if it’s your first time. there’s a menu of fresh to order drinks on the board, above the cash register. OR you can walk over to the mini open fridge and check out their already bottled drinks. it’s nice to read the ingredients because most of their drinks have particular names that don’t really describe what is in each one. I absolutely love the sunrise (apples, oranges, peaches, mangoes, strawberries) AND the cocoa carrot! yummm~
it’s located behind the old target in sandy springs. it’s kind of hard to spot since their name is not on the big brick board that lists all the stores in the shopping center, but they do have a sign on top of their building…

I’m not really the right customer for Arden’s Garden, so others are more likely to bump up this rating. So this is to say that my smoothie was good, and I might come back occasionally. I’d like this location to succeed since this area that will be the Sandy Springs center needs some new life, so let this just be a heads-​up that this new location of Arden’s Garden is open for business. I’m sure some of you out there are fans and would enjoy checking it out.

I love Arden’s Garden and this location in particular. It’s one of the newer ones and I was delighted to have it so close to work! I’m here at least once a week to stock up.
The staff is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable, especially the original 3 employees. There have been a couple of new folks lately but they’ve been great so far.
If you are a newbie to veggie juices, try the Yoga 1 — great greens such as kale, spinach and cucumber but the added pineapple is what you will primarily taste.
Carrot/​Apple/​Ginger is another fav along with Hot Shot, Paradise, Green Energy Machine and a few seasonal favorites (Tangerine and Watermelon).
Do try the Grand Slam at some point — a 1oz shot of wheatgrass, ginger, lemon and cranberry juices. The ginger will hurt every feeling you have. Seriously. Disgusting on it’s own. But good for you along with the others. They will usually offer a chaser which will taste like nectar of the Gods after the Grand Slam. If they don’t, ask for one.
Check them out if you have ever thought about juicing or want to add some goodness into your system along with the great food around the city. They do cleanses and detoxes also. I recently did a 2 day one and (survived) was surprised at how much I was not starving and enjoyed the break from thinking about what was for breakfast/​lunch/​dinner. Seemed to reset my taste buds as well.

Always love the Spinach Slam. Unfortunately, only one lady on duty today, so service took FOREVER!!!
