Green Moustache Juice located in Whistler Village is a place that serves juices, smoothies, raw and healthy food. We were spending the weekend in Whistler and a spa day at Scandinave Spa. We didn’t to go in the pools filling stuffed and bloated so we optioned for some healthy salads and fresh juices. This juice bar is cute and is attached to 3 Singing Birds boutique. There are bar seats and a communal table with plenty of wholesome cookbooks to look at. I was really hoping for a Canteen PDX or Prasad experience; unfortunately, Green Moustache fell short and was quite disappointing. I’ll tell you why.
Cold Pressed Juices 12oz for 7.00 and 16oz for 8.50: When I’m paying almost ten bucks for a cold-pressed juice I would like that it wasn’t poured out from a big flask sitting in the fridge. My Green Invigorating juice ran out half-way and they suggested it be topped with beet juice. This was by far the worst ‘juicing’ experience I’ve had. I would argue I make better juice myself at home. When I declined topping my green juice with beet juice, they suggested cucumber juice — all fillers.
- Invigorating: Dr G’s Ultimate Green Juice
- Verve: carrot, apple, beet and ginger
Superfood Salad 10.95: Full of seasonal greens, an abundance of fresh veggies, beets, nuts, seeds, sprouts and carrots. We added hummus +1.35.
Buddha Bowl 10.95: Everything you see above with added rice, quinoa and avocados plus house dressing.
Both items were practically identical. The rice bowl was more filling. I did like the flavors of ingredients and the variety they used.
HOWEVER, after we finished eating our meal, I discovered they STORED THEIR RAW CARROTS, VEGETABLES, AND BANANAS IN THEIR PUBLIC WASHROOM!! NEXT TO THE TOILET AND CLEANING SUPPLIES! When I confronted the staff, they just brushed me aside and said it was not a concern.
I am so disgusted and appalled at the lack of food safety and health codes that are violated here. I will never go back. Ever.
And I wish I took a photo to show you all, but I don’t take my phone in the washroom with me. Nor my food.
