Smoothie King 1205 Lincoln Street, Columbia, SC 29201

"Very disappointed… I recently visited the store shortly before closing time, understanding that it might be a bit inconvenient. However, I was under the impression that service would be available until their posted closing time of 9pm. It's reasonable to expect that a business will adhere to its publicly stated hours. If there is a preference for wrapping up earlier, perhaps revising the official store hours would be more appropriate. This would ensure clarity and prevent any misunderstandings for future customers"

"It was all good until it wasn’t. I came to this location a few times for the PB Swizzle Bowl and so far so good. Today I came back to get another one and the bowl was so sloppy. As soon as I took the top off, fruit began to fall out onto the counter & peanut butter got on my fingers. The worker could tell I wasn’t satisfied and who would be! A $13.19 bowl that looks a mess. I asked for a refund and the woman called her manager who advised her the only option was for the refund to go on my debit card! Mind blown, I asked why if I paid exact cash. She said they would have to call the district manager to see how to do that. Are you serious??? I said just put it on a gift card, the worker ignored that and responded I can put it on a debit card. Exasperated at the entire ordeal, I gave her my card. She then told me it would go back on my card in 3 to 5 business days. I will not be back unless the guy with curly hair is here. He seems to be the only competent worker they have. See photos! One receipt shows I paid cash and the next shows my debit card for the refund. Also, I included how the bowl is supposed to look then what they served me. Lastly, thankfully I have more cash on me to get something else to eat when I get off work. Could you imagine if I didn’t and that was my last??!"

"45-minute smoothie run for a single smoothie, and it wasn't packed or extremely busy. Ordered on app at 12:38pm, got my smoothie at 1:03pm which made me late getting back. Ratio was off after employee add more ice. Subpar for the brand and basic service. Even though it was excessively behind, they still were oddly taking their time getting to it after starting it and putting it down to ring up a customer and then making another instead."

"This is a nice little smoothie shop. They sell several different things that you can make your own smoothies with at home. Personally I like Tropical Smoothie better. I just like the taste and the textures of Tropical Smoothies a little better. This place is clean, and also has good customer service. The smoothies do taste good, but it's just not my first choice though."

"If you find a parking near the entrance, you are in luck. Otherwise just a standard smoothie king. The guy who took my order was new, so the service was slower but luckily I wasn't in a hurry. Smoothie was alright, I got peices of banana in my smoothie. There is some seating in the store."
