First visit. This place opened one month ago. Was looking forward to having a healthy alternative here in Hickory. I got the Sunrise Sunset smoothie, with plant-based pea protein added. $8.68 + tax = $9.37 total. For a little fruit and crushed ice.
But I was SO DISAPPOINTED to find out their average smoothie has 80 grams of ADDED turbanado SUGAR, unless you’re smart enough to ask them not to put it in. That’s as much as 2 cans of coca-cola!!!!
80 grams of sugar ÷ 4.2 grams per teaspoon =
19 TEASPOONS OF ADDED SUGAR, (PLUS the natural sugars in the fruit) in every 24 oz smoothie!
In a country with epidemic obesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancer, this is obscene! A good smoothie does not need any added sugar. This is not healthy food . . . It is expensive JUNK FOOD. . . I will not be going back – I make much better smoothies at home for 1/3 the price!
Also: Please tell Corporate they need some Gluten-free bread alternatives. Many of us cannot eat gluten, sugar or cheese . . . It makes us FAT!! They only had white bread.
And please get some 100% Real peanut butter. Not sugar and margerine! (I am a certified nutritionist)
This chain is all about profit margins, Not healthy food. What a shame . . . it was such a good idea. Great concept and marketing. Very poor junk food quality.

Customer Feedback for Tropical Smoothie Cafe – Hickory, NC
I had the most amazing experience at the Hickory Tropical Smoothie location. I had just ordered a smoothie and a sandwich, and the moment I received my smoothie, I accidentally dropped it all over the floor. I was absolutely crushed and felt awful.
But the customer service I received completely turned my day around. The sweet girl who had made my smoothie immediately reassured me and said, “It’s no big deal at all, it happens all the time. Let me get you another one, and we’ll clean it right up.” She was so kind, so gracious, and truly made me feel cared for—not judged or embarrassed.
The entire team handled it with such compassion and professionalism. I left with my smoothie in hand, my sandwich, and a smile on my face. That kind of customer service is rare and so appreciated. It’s the reason I’ll be back to that location again and again—and why I’ll keep choosing Tropical Smoothie Cafe wherever I go. Thank you for making what could’ve been a bad moment into something genuinely uplifting!

First time trying an Acai Bowl. It was delicious! Already thinking about what to order next time. It was close to closing when we arrived the store was practically empty. Loved that for us! The store was very clean, with a simple layout. The service was fast and the workers were friendly. 5/27/25 they had a 100 health inspection score.
10/10 would recommend!

I didn’t like what I asked for (personal preference only) and they remade my smoothie to my satisfaction – no extra charge. It was delicious.

Everything is really good & fresh. I had a Blueberry Bliss & an All-American wrap with bacon, cheese & egg. Both were sooooo delicious. This is going to be one of the first places, I go to when I go out. The best part is that it is all healthy for you! A win-win!!
