We're so glad to have a quality food stop on our trips between MN and IL. Finding quality food on the road is challenging and this spot is heaven sent. We've loved everything we've tried off of the menu. The service is so kind and fast, and the prices are fair. :)

This place always has a line every time we make the trip to Iowa City and stop here. It is no wonder, the juice is the freshest best cold pressed juice around. We literally drive 25 miles for it. They will deliver as well if ypu get you order in by Wednesday, they deliver on Fridays. Even 30 miles away.

Really great Smoothie - first place I've had the option of Greek yogurt for the base and dates for the sweetener and as many fruit selections as desired - rich & delicious!

Workers seemed very confused on the order of food and the service was very slow. Not sure if there just weren’t enough workers or if they were overwhelmed with the amount of orders, because it was a popular time. Delicious food but slow

I first walked into this place an innocent woman, one who thought I knew what a good smoothie was. But alas, I was mistaken. The moment a singular atom from that first sip touched my tongue, it was like my mouth burst into a nuclear explosion of wonder. I saw my future: my job, who I would marry, what my kids would grow up to do, and how I would eventually die. My depression was cured instantly, my acne cleared, my lifespan extended by 40 years. My life would never be the same again. It was an awakening. The smoothie was just thick enough to have substance, but thin enough that I didn't have to unlock the vacuum of space to drink it. I could taste every. Single. Fruit. And the yogurt. Oh, the yogurt!!!This shop supports local businesses, which is cool. It has options other than smoothies, too. But every day I crave a smoothie from this place. I go feral. My friends all have scratches and bite marks on their arms from when they've tried to stop me from getting a smoothie. My boyfriend nearly lost his leg. My mom called me today sobbing, trying to plead me to stop. She says weird things like I'm "cutting into the family savings" and "tearing the family apart". But no one can get in between Get Fresh Café and me. No. One. And that is why you should go!

What I ordered was really good - a smoothie bowl. HOWEVER. The price listed on the menu displayed above where you order was not accurate. Instead of the $12 listed, it rang up as $15. Toppings are listed (you get 3 with build your own), but boosters (you get 2) are not. I asked about them, was told chia seeds, and that rang up as $1 extra. While the serving is large, paying $17+ for a smoothie bowl is, IMO, too expensive. I understand the owner is looking to get a digital menu display so updated prices are easier to display, but still. Looking at this cynically, this is a great way to lure in customers to pay, in my case 25% more. I'd like to go again, but I want to have the true cost DISPLAYED instead of making the order and then having an unpleasant surprise.

one of my go-to lunch spots in IC; lots of healthy options, especially for gluten free diets. given the organic, local ingredients they use, prices are decent. employees are always very friendly and patient, even when their line is out the door :)

I LOVE Get Fresh!! It's my favorite place in Iowa City for lunch, smoothies/smoothie bowls, and fresh juice.My usual order is the Spicy Vegan BLT - the housemade tempeh bacon is amazing - and the green goddess bowl (choose 3 toppings) or the green smoothie. My family also adores the freshies.They have a great selection of fresh juices. I sometimes get these to add to our smoothies at home.On top of the the delicious food, the owner, Wendy is wonderful. She has created a beautiful space with plants to enjoy fresh, local food.

Such an underrated smoothie shop!The aesthetics were amazing -- they had a couch and study area, were great decor. I got the daily special which turned out to be a bluberry pineapple smoothie, which hit the spot on that sunday morning after running around at the farmer's market.

really nice, new, cute, clean cafe in an amazing location downtown Iowa City, amazing view of Capitol from patio. If your looking for a more down and dirty college breakfast spot, search on!

this is hands down my favorite place to buy food or drink downtown. this place never fails to disappoint when i need to swing by for something before work. the staff is the friendliest of all places i have been to in iowa city and always greet customers, consistently make great food and drink, and know how to make good customer connections. i think the pricing is fair for the ingredients used, the cleanliness of the store, and the atmosphere. this is the only place downtown that i am a regular at because of how happy i am with the service and products!

I absolutely love get fresh! Although it is a little more pricey than some other places in Iowa City, their food is always quality and I've never had anything I didn't like. One discrepancy, however, is that on multiple occasions my sandwiches would not be made correctly. Most commonly, my turkey bacon ranch wrap would come with no bacon or no turkey. I would also ask for no tomatoes and be given tomatoes but still no bacon. It's really not that big of a deal, but with how popular this place is, I feel like it's a hassle to ask for it to be remade. However, with how frequently I get food here it would be nice to know if i'm getting a turkey bacon ranch wrap or a turkey tomato ranch wrap. Overall, though, I would have to say their servers are always friendly and the food is always good (even if it is made wrong). I give 4 stars because my overall and recurring experiences have been wholly great, and I don't think a few tomatoes or missing bacon here or there justify any lower rating. Perfect place to stop to study and eat, but is very popular so takes about 15-30 mins to get food during peak hours. Totally recommend for college students or for a cute brunch/lunch date, as they often have special deals during midterms/finals week and the smoothie of the day is always fire.

I stopped in for a coffee, the customer service was very nice, the whole place was very neat and the restroom was clean as a whistle. Will stop here again and try some food.
