Review Summary

Spirulina is described as a reliable go-to for fresh healthy bites with many reviews praising delicious food, a light airy atmosphere, and friendly staff, along with good value for the quality. The menu highlights include smoothies, matcha drinks, salads and toast, noted for freshness and flavor, and the vibe is repeatedly described as peaceful and welcoming. A newer location is praised for lots of seating and expanded options, while some comments mention price points being a touch high for portions. A recent experience at one location mentions delays with prepaid pickup and miscommunication, revealing staffing strains and a slower service pace, albeit with kind and professional service from the team and hope that operations will catch up with the brand's usual standard.

I had chicken quinoa soup it was delicious, fresh produce & nicely seasoned. I also had the banana bread matcha with oat milk. It was perfect & it actually tasted like banana bread! Thanks Spirulina!

Magnifique endroit, nourriture très belle qualité, je mets 2 étoiles car quand j'ai quitté j'ai remarqué qu'il n'y avait aucun recyclage. Tout a été servi dans des contenant de carton, il n'y a aucun raison qu'une telle chaîne ne recycle pas en 2026 …. J'ai demandé au service à la caisse & on m'a bien confirmé qu'on ne recyclait pas ….. quelle dommage …

Love Spirulina! First time at this location I ordered my regular Strawberry peanut butter smoothie & the muffin however I was waiting very long for my smoothie! They kept trying to make it because it was liquidity.. the employees had their backs turned to the customers just a little unprofessional I find

I come here every day after class & they make the best matcha!! service is always super welcoming & kind & atmosphere is great for studying & chilling. Toasts are also really delicious. One critique: they raised the price of the matcha for some reason-I think in terms of their location near McGill, they should bring the price back down to be more affordable for the hundreds of students that come in every day!

Très bel endroit, lumineux, avec de vraies plantes.

Petit marché amusant avec des produits niche.

J'aime leur nombreuses possibilités Vege & sans gluten.

Mes toasts à l'avocat & mon smoothie étaient bons, mais chers pour la quantité reçue.

Their new location is definitely an upgrade! Theres more space for seating & more items but we went during peak hours so it was kinda hard to grab a seat but we managed thankfully! Got their avocado toast with honey walnuts & cheese & the other with an egg salad. Both were good but would definitely recommend the egg salad. Got their matcha with the coconut foam & it was really good! Also tried their banana bread matcha & the earl grey matcha. The earl grey was just a tad bit too sweet for me but very good nonetheless & the texture banana bread syrup kinda threw me off but it was still a good matcha latte.

I've usually loved Spirulina but this new location could definitely make its experience better. First of all, the wait was so long! Tell me why I am waiting for a smoothie for 25mins. Especially since they are in premade Ziploc bags…Like come on. Not to mention I paid 14$ for my smoothie. Also, when the employees call out your name, you can't hear anything, so people don't even come get their drinks; they just stand there & people accumulate in front of the counter for no reason. The employees looked overwhelmed, there were like 20 receipts on the counter & I honestly feel bad for them. The place is cute but the experience is horrible.

I've loved Spirulina Cafés for years & have always had great experiences at other locations, which is why this visit was so disappointing.

I placed a pickup order at 11:50, & only received it at 12:20, meaning I waited about 20 minutes past the pickup time. At one point, there was even confusion about my order being cancelled, which may have caused a small delay - but even taking that into account, the wait felt excessive for a simple smoothie & a salad that is usually pre-prepared. Knowing this cafe in its other locations, I know it is not normal. Because of this delay, I ended up missing an appointment.

What was especially frustrating is that customers who ordered at the counter after me were served almost immediately, while my prepaid pickup order seemed to be overlooked. For a café meant to be convenient & efficient for people grabbing something quickly, this really defeats the purpose of ordering ahead.

That said, I genuinely felt for the staff - they seemed very understaffed & overwhelmed, & it didn't look like they were set up to handle rushes properly. I want to highlight Creation, who was very kind, helpful, & professional despite the situation. Unfortunately, the experience at the cash felt less helpful overall, even considering how busy it was.

It's just unfortunate because this location is so well-situated & has the potential to be a great grab-&-go spot, but if service continues to be this slow, it becomes impractical to stop by.

I really hope this location improves its organization & pickup order process, because Spirulina has always been a go-to for me, & I'd love to see this location meet the same standard as the others.

Spirulina has been our go-to for healthy lunch or smoothies for 2 years but this new Sherbrooke location is amazing! Lots of seating, light, airy ambiance & the menu we love. There are also lots of new items for sale here too in the expanded space. Whether you need a snack, coffee, matcha, smoothie or a proper lunch, Spirulina is an excellent choice.
