Tropical Smoothie Cafe

It's on the spendy side of inexpensive (12-15 dollars for lunch before tip) which may turn some people off but the service is always excellent and the (giant 24oz) smoothies are less than five dollars before 10:30 everyday. Everything is super fresh and eating kale here is the only time I have ever enjoyed it. There's lots of options for the smoothies, and everything on the menu is customizable (taking ingredients out or putting more in). Only downside is that the food portions are a little small, but this is a health-focused cafe and if portions weren't small, I would end up absolutely stuffing myself because it's all so delicious. It can get loud during busy hours but just before and just after lunch it's nearly empty and a perfect place to chill and get work done (free wifi!) if you're looking for Starbucks alternative.
