Whale Juice Blends - York

I really enjoy this restaurant and their drinks are usually great. However, I am really bothered by how dirty the establishment is. There are boxes of fruits and cleaning supplies scattered throughout the store, covered in dust. Even their Christmas tree is still up in July, covered in an inch of dust. I doubt they will pass their next health inspection. They should spend a day cleaning and then reopen.

Got their seasonal mango pomelo drink tonight.Have been wanting to try their drinks ever since passing by their downtown location couple times, but didn’t get anything because they close early than advertised operating time.In short, today’s drink meets my expectation in term of quality and flavours? there was a plastic at the end of my last sip, and checked that was not from the lid.

Fresh and amazing fruit drinks. They actually use real fruits! Love the Grape Cheese Boom

I have a soft spot for cute branding, so I was disappointed when I walked into the restaurant. The space was cluttered with boxes, dark, and cramped, making it very uncomfortable. I was initially leaning towards giving it a 3.5 rating. However, the drinks were delicious. They reminded me of the old-school boba drink shops I used to frequent 10 years ago. This made me hopeful that more places would start offering similar drinks again. Therefore, I am bumping my rating up to a 4.

This store has absolutely zero business ethic. I placed an order for surprise bag on too good to go and it's scheduled for pickup on the next day at 10:30pm. I left early the next day at 10:00 pm when it's 12 Celsius outside hoping to be on time as soon as it's ready for pickup. However the store canceled the order literally 3 minutes before the scheduled pickup time since there was no surplus. Of course I had no access to the notification about cancellation on my phone while driving and only to find out later the my time (and gas) had been wasted. They told me that the app releases a surprise bag for the next day automatically everyday but they can only know if there's surplus 1 hour before closing, and therefore it is the app's fault and not theirs. Everyone knows that too goo too go partners have the freedom to choose release time and pickup time but why in the hell do they decide to release bags a day before when they don't know if anything will be available, and cancel the order 3 minutes before pick up when people have already arrived? Clearly this store has a ton of fun pranking its customers.
