Today, a friend asked me where she could get good juice in L.A., so I thought I'd share my favorite places with you too. I actually prefer to make my own juice from produce I've purchased from a farmer's market, but if I'm out and about these are the places I like the best.
- Beverly Hills Juice Club is fantastic. They have all sorts of fruit juices and some vegetable - great combinations. They make it really early in the morning from local produce. They also have amazing raw "ice cream" that you can add to your juice to make incredibly thick shakes (Banana Mana). Only problem is that the juice is in bottles, so you can't bring your own container.
- Fruit Gallery off Venice Beach is really cute and owned by a nice couple. They have really good drinks and even some food. Very vegan friendly.
- Elixir in Equinox gym, Santa Monica has a great juice bar and they also sell varies healthy food and bars.
- One Life in Santa Monica has a juice bar in the back that is good.
- Earth Bar has a couple of locations in L.A. - don't think I've had their juice but I like the company a lot.
- I've neve had anything from Renovo in Santa Monica, but I met one of the owners and he's really nice. I went inside once and it was really cute with lots of vegan options. And, it's across the street from the DMV, so it's a good place to go before you wait in line.
I'm not a big fan of Jamba Juice/Robeks/Juice It Up because they're pretty processed and sugary, but if you can't find anywhere else to go make sure to get their fruit-only drinks.
Do you have any places you'd like to add?

sweeeeet! thanks girl :) Love the tips!
can you write another one about ice cream?? Any favorite vegan kinds at stores that actually taste good?
You're welcome Rosewood. Hands down, Coconut Bliss is my favorite vegan ice cream. You can find it at Whole Foods and I've written about a few times...though perhaps I'll do another post about all the ice cream alternatives I like.
Ginger Rogers at News Room on Robertson ignited my passion for carrots and ginger!
I second Fruit Gallery, great spot and people. In addition to juice, they make tasty (and affordable) tofu wraps & vegan macaroni salad.
Also, One Life on Main St. has a great juice bar.
