The Fresh Monkee - Glastonbury

Very tasty and healthy smoothies for reasonable prices.

Annie was very insightful and helped me a lot with the app... thank you for the excellent service!

I was looking forward to getting a shake at fresh monkey and I was a little disappointed I must say. They had one person making shakes and one person hand washing all of the blenders. I mean it's a Saturday morning it's probably going to busy. I totally understand that someone has to wash the items but the person taking orders was also the one making all of the shakes. With that said she cashed me out used my card and then went on to make the shakes with her hands touching the banana after touching my card and the computer screen that everyone has touched. I finally got my shake it was so milky and had little flavor. I was pretty disappointed. I am not writing this review to scare you away from going but I am hopeful the owner will make positive changes.

I recently read a write up about the Fresh Monkee, and drove 30 minutes to try one of their shakes. The vibe was not friendly at all. It was not very busy either. A young man waited on me, no greeting, no smile, nothing. I ordered a Nutella shake, which came to over $11.00 for a large. For that price, I would expect something sensational. It was supposed to consist of Nutella, chocolate, protein, milk, and a banana. And what I tasted was chocolate protein powder, a little milk, and ice. There was no Nutella in it, no banana in it. It was totally devoid of taste and texture. It was extremely disappointing, and not a good experience at all. I would not recommend this place for a smoothie or a shake. It was extremely overpriced for what I received. What an overhype!

First time visiting The Fresh Monkee, cool to see it is a local chain! THE FOOD-they serve protein shakes-extensive menu but also possible to create your own -great for peanut butter lovers but also TON of options for those who aren't fans -I ordered the blueberry pie and it was really tasty! I was expecting more of a smoothie consistency but it was much lighter/thinner consistency as it's a protein shake. I'm not a huge fan of toppings on my drinks so I would get it without the crumbled graham cracker next time -a bit pricey but there are a lot of ingredients and it's a nice size for what you pay in my opinion! I used mine as lunch! THE SERVICE-staff was extremely nice. Told the cashier it was my first time visiting and she asked my likes/dislikes to give me some recommendations! I really appreciated the help -quick check out and making of the shakes THE ATMOSPHERE-really cute theme, very green/jungle-y-variety of seating options including tables and more lounge like seating. There was also a table outside -I was able to hop on a meeting quick while I waited to go to an appointment locally. Might not be the best idea if you've got extremely important meetings to attend with the rumbling of the blenders but it worked for me!! I will definitely be back to try another flavor.
