Freshii - Burnaby

I have visited this place on semi-regular basis and they can never impress. Today I had a particularly positive experience. thank you glenlyon freshii team!

Quick meal during our GWRRA Meetup. Service was prompt and friendly. Order the Buddha’s Satay bowl and it hit the spot. With lots veggies, bit of noodles and some chicken protein, it was a healthy alternative to A&W next door.

I must confess I do not understand Freshii. For the longest time time, I never bother with trying the food at Freshii as I always think of it as a salad place. I do not fancy salads and rarely will I willingly eat one as a meal. Somehow one day I downloaded the app and saw it has cold pressed juice besides the salad bowls and tacos too. Tacos?! I always like cold pressed juice and have been looking for a juice bar near me. And there is street corn chicken taco. I love corn. So I ordered that. I was quite disappointed to know the juice was not freshly made but rather it was the bottled type. I could have bought that from Whole Foods or something. The tacos were ok, not wow. Do not expect much. Tacos are definitely better at authentic Mexican restaurants. The place itself is clean and the service friendly. Plenty of parking out front in the lot. It is along marine way, making it convenient to stop for a bite if you are hungry while driving in that area.

Delicious really great to have a healthy take out option when you're in a pinch

I always thought freshii had bad smoothies. Turns out it’s just this location. It’s just blended ice with a touch of fruits.
