Beyond Juice Menu Review – Prices, Nutrition & Top Picks

Finding “fast food” that doesn’t derail your health goals is a challenge. 

Beyond Juicery + Eatery has carved out a niche by offering a menu that feels more like a wellness clinic than a quick-service restaurant. 

The Smoothie Menu: Classics vs. Functional Blends

The core of the Beyond Juicery + Eatery experience is the smoothie list. Unlike many competitors that use purees or syrups, Beyond emphasizes raw ingredients. 

However, the menu is split into distinct categories that serve different purposes.

Classic Smoothies

These are fruit-forward blends designed for taste and basic refreshment. They typically rely on a banana base.

• Total Energy: The entry-level option (Strawberry, Banana). Despite the name, it does not contain added caffeine stimulants—just natural fruit energy.
• Mango Tango: A tropical staple. Note: This is high in natural sugars (approx. 78g per 20 oz) due to the mango and honey content.
• Banana Nut: A heartier option often used as a meal replacement due to the fat content from peanut or almond butter.

Functional & Energy Smoothies

This is where the menu gets complex. These items include specific supplements like collagen, blue spirulina, or guarana.

Island Surge / Acai Surge

These contain the “Beyond Energy Supplement,” which uses Guarana.

Caffeine Alert: A 20 oz serving contains up to 140mg of caffeine—roughly equivalent to a strong cup of coffee.

Blue Mood Rush

Focuses on cognitive function (“nootropic” ingredients). It includes collagen protein and Blue Spirulina.

Dietary Note: Because it contains collagen (beef derivative), this smoothie is not vegetarian, even though it looks fruity.

Food Menu: Wraps, Salads, and Tortilla Choices

Beyond isn’t just liquid calories. Their “Eatery” section features substantial wraps and bowls. 

A common critique in online reviews is the price-to-size ratio, but the nutritional density often justifies the cost for health-conscious diners.

Signature Wraps

The most popular item is undoubtedly the Chicken Caesar Wrap. However, it is also the heaviest item on the menu.

Chicken Caesar Wrap

At roughly 900 calories and 46g of fat, this is a cheat meal disguised as health food. It delivers high protein (46g), but the dressing and parmesan drive up the sodium to over 2200mg.

Greek Veggie Wrap

A lighter alternative. At 480 calories, it offers a balanced mix of hummus, beets, and feta.

Tortilla Customization

One aspect the menu boards often gloss over is the tortilla variety. You can customize your macro-nutrient intake significantly by choosing the right shell:

• Spinach: Standard flour base with spinach powder.
• Wheat: Higher fiber.
• Gluten-Friendly: Available for an upcharge (usually +$1.00 – $2.00).
• Low Carb: Essential for keto diners, significantly dropping the carbohydrate count of the wrap.

Raw Juices and Wellness Shots

If you are looking for zero additives, the Raw Juice section is where Beyond shines. These are made-to-order or cold-pressed bottled options (“Hero” line).

Bottled “Hero” Juices

These are convenient, grab-and-go options.

• Detox Hero: A spicy, metabolism-kicking blend of Pineapple, Lime, Basil, and Jalapeño. It’s low calorie (130 cal) and excellent for digestion.
• Immunity Hero: Heavy on Ginger and Turmeric with added Zinc. Tastes intense and earthy.

Wellness Shots (2 oz)

• Turmeric Shot: (30 cal) Pure anti-inflammatory focus.
• Hot Shot: (25 cal) A sinus-clearing blast of Ginger, Lemon, and Cayenne.

Taste Profile Note: The raw juices here are earthier and less sweet than grocery store brands (like Naked or Odwalla) because they do not use apple juice concentrate as a filler.

Nutritional Breakdown and “Hidden” Ingredients

For those tracking macros, the beyond juice menu has some traps. While ingredients are fresh, sugar and sodium levels can spike quickly.

The Sugar Factor

Many smoothies use a combination of fruit and honey.

• The Issue: A 20 oz Island Surge has nearly 90g of sugar. While much of this is fructose (fruit sugar), it is a massive insulin spike for sedentary individuals.
• The Fix: Ask to remove the honey or agave syrup to drop the sugar count by 10-15g without ruining the flavor.

Protein Content

• Low: Most standard fruit smoothies have only 1-2g of protein.
• High: The Chicken Caesar Wrap (46g protein) or adding a Whey/Vegan protein scoop to a smoothie (usually +$1.50) is necessary for a complete meal.

Dietary Restrictions

• Vegan: The sorbets and most raw juices are vegan. However, be careful with smoothies containing Collagen (animal-derived) or Honey (bee-derived). You must request substitutions.
• Gluten-Free: The granola is certified GF, and they offer GF tortillas, but cross-contamination is possible in the kitchen area.

Price Guide (Estimates)

Prices vary by location and delivery platform. Expect to pay a premium of 15-20% if ordering via DoorDash or UberEats. The prices below reflect in-store averages.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Beyond Juicery + Eatery organic?

While they prioritize fresh and “clean” ingredients, the chain does not claim to be 100% organic. They focus on raw ingredients and avoiding high-fructose corn syrups.

Does the Blue Mood Rush smoothie have caffeine?

Yes. It contains “PurCaf,” organic caffeine derived from green coffee beans. It has roughly 70mg of caffeine, which is less than a cup of coffee but enough to provide a boost.

Are the smoothies dairy-free?

Most are made with fruits and ice or almond milk, making them dairy-free by default. 

However, smoothies with “Frozen Yogurt” (like the Cookie Butter) or “Whey Protein” contain dairy. Always ask for sorbet or vegan protein substitutes.

Can I customize the sweetness?

Absolutely. Most smoothies include a sweetener like honey, agave, or maple syrup. You can request “light sweetener” or “no sweetener” to significantly reduce calorie and sugar intake.

Final Thoughts: Who is this menu for?

• Choose the Wraps if you need a high-protein lunch that will keep you full until dinner.
• Choose the “Hero” Juices if you want low-calorie, nutrient-dense hydration without the sugar crash.
• Be Careful with the “Energy” smoothies if you are watching your sugar intake; treat them as a meal replacement or a pre-workout fuel rather than a snack.

Beyond Juicery + Eatery offers high-quality fuel, provided you know exactly what you are ordering.
