Ruby Jean's Kitchen & Juicery

Love this place! It’s so bright and welcoming. The staff is always friendly and accommodating. Today I ordered a juice and the staff member made a little too much. Instead of tossing it, she gave it to me in an extra cup - loved that! There is both indoor and outdoor seating. Their patio in the back is super cute.

Ruby Jean's: A Bright Spot for Fresh Smoothies (with a small caveat) Ruby Jean's offers a truly delightful experience for anyone craving a fresh and healthy treat. Their smoothies are a standout, made with actual fruit rather than syrupy purees, which makes a noticeable difference in taste and quality. Beyond the excellent beverages, you'll find a great selection of juices and healthy snacks/meals, ensuring there's something for everyone. The atmosphere at Ruby Jean's is just as appealing as their menu. The employees are welcoming, and the room itself is bright and fun, creating an inviting space to relax. If you're looking for a spot to work on your laptop, this could be an ideal choice, offering a vibrant and positive environment. The only minor drawback to note is the loudness of the smoothie machines. While they're churning out deliciousness, the noise level makes it impossible to take or make a professional call. However, if your work doesn't involve frequent calls, this shouldn't deter you from enjoying all that Ruby Jean's has to offer. This really is the only area for improvement in an otherwise stellar establishment.

Amazing, Delicious Smoothies. If you love chocolate like me, highly recommend the Butter Crunch smoothie! Fire breakfast sandwiches. Really kind, and good looking employees. R&B playing!! They with the vibes!! I love this place! 10/10

I love this place! I can’t live without a no crust PBJ smoothie! The staff is always kind and friendly. The shop itself is seriously adorable and so clean. I work in downtown Kansas City so, it’s nice to quickly drop by here for my favorite smoothie 💜

Ordered the Vegan Breakfast Burrito with breakfast sausage and the Healthy Bites boiled eggs. Yes, I am a carnivore. I enjoy the food but the prices are a bit high. I especially enjoy the Vegan Brussel Sprouts Nachos. No, I do not add meat. They are delicious sans meat.

Love Ruby Jean’s! The world truly needs more places like this, with an array of healthy food options and delicious juices. Seriously, my wife and I are obsessed with their juices and thankfully we’ve found them also available at Whole Foods and McClain’s. Their space is inviting and calming, with friendly service, a chill lounge area, outdoor seating, and vibrant decor. It was a difficult choice from the looks of all their great options and I went with the sweet potato curry bowl. It tasted so FRESH and I really enjoyed it. Only complaint was it was served scalding hot. Only other complaint is we wish we could buy the juice in larger portions! My wife said she wants a gallon for her birthday.

Ruby Jeans Juicery has been a regular stop for me whenever I'm back in town. I appreciate their commitment to healthy, plant-based options, which keeps me coming back. This time, I ordered the Cherry Bomb smoothie and picked up the vegan chickpea grab-and-go salad. The Cherry Bomb smoothie was a refreshing treat. The blend of flavors was well-balanced, and I loved that it wasn't overly sweet—perfect for a light, energizing boost. However, the vegan chickpea salad fell a bit short of expectations. The dried basil left a lingering aftertaste that didn’t quite work for me. Additionally, the salad could benefit from more attention to texture—the red onions and celery were in larger chunks than I would prefer, which disrupted the overall consistency. The salad also leaned on the dry side, and I think extra vegan mayo would have gone a long way in creating a creamier, more enjoyable dish. Overall, while I’ve had better experiences here, I believe there’s room for improvement, especially in the preparation of the chickpea salad.

Ruby Jeans is one of the first places in KCMO I made myself acquainted. I have only ever had my juice customs and the staff is always accommodating. The service is great but sometimes it gives when you go to your favorite Aunty's house and her kid's (your cousins) aren't feeling you bc she's being too nice all of a sudden but you didn't really do anything, so, they'll still make your juice. Issa vibe. I digress 😂 The atmosphere is great. People from all walks of life seem to converge on this beautifully curated space for healthy food, drinks, and networking. This place is cashless. Be prepared bc you will get the finger tap on the sticker of accepted payment methods. In the future, I'll order ahead as it seems to be one of the better ways to lessen wait times during busier periods. Overall, Ruby Jean's is always clean. This place would be great for a first date or meet up with friends or co-workers, relatively inexpensive with plenty of options, in my opinion. Pictured juice: beets, carrot, green apple, lemon juice, ginger, and cayenne pepper. I call it 'the blood of christ.' 🤌🏽

A fantastic health food spot. Great for a pick me up or a light bite! I absolutely love all of the clean and healthy ingredients offered here. Everything we ordered was so tasty and well worth the stop! They are also extremely clean here. You see them make and clean everything. If you have any allergy concerns, this place will take it seriously! The only thing that could've been better was the timing of our food. We got two of our meals and almost finished them before the third person even got her acai bowl.

Trying to eat healthy.. Rubys food & drink menu would meet that qualification! First off.. Rubys ambience and decor is so vibrant just like the Salmon Benedict bowl was more than I could eat in one seating. The ingredients were fresh, and the salmon cooked well. I didn't catch too much flavor from the salmon itself. The combination of the muffin, spinach, tomatoes and egg provided the taste to meal. I didn't really any flavor or seasoning from the queso either. The portion was sufficient. My handcrafted Sweet Truth was so refreshing and good. I chose right with strawberry, red apple and lime.

Still one of my favorite places to get some of the most healthiest meals, drinks, desserts, , smoothies, and wellness shots. Everyone is always smiling and welcoming. I love the art and the ambiance of plants galore!

Friendly. Cozy. Healthy. Looking for a quaint spot to get a healthy meal or snack? Look no further. This is such a great gem in town. The staff here was so friendly and welcoming. The peanut butter protein rounds and avocado toast were so delicious. The Java Butter smoothie was a nice way to round everything out. The oatmeal was unique in a sense that it was not overwhelmingly sweet but had a lot of flavor. Nicely done, yall!

I had the BEST experience at Ruby Jean's! During my first ever visit to KC, I KNEW I needed to stop at this place that I have followed on Instagram for some years. the space is beautiful and so inviting, with tons of tiny nooks and gathering tables for conversation, autonomous resets or a quick sit down with friends. i picked up their sweet potato salad which was amazing and a couple of their bottled juices, which were delicious and fresh too! If you are in KC, check out Ruby Jeans!

I absolutely LOVE Ruby Jeans! I have been buying their juices from Whole Foods or other local markets and I had to pop in and see this place for myself. The interior is decorated so well and it just makes you want to come in and stay a while. I ordered the soul food bowl and was impressed with how fresh everything was! The absolute best part of it my visit was the juice. I mean the juices are to die for! The Goode Vibes Only is hands down the best juice I have ever had. I had to grab 4 out of their fridge. I am BEGGING for them to start putting this in gallon containers, I would be on cloud nine! The staff was friendly and attentive and I can't wait to go back again.

The salmon is always fire! Currently smoothie with protein never misses. Grateful to the team who holds it down and is efficient. Very clean and a great addition to the block.

My coworker was craving an acai bowl so I said - I know just the place! We went to Ruby's and immediately loved the energy! The fun, colorful aesthetic and storytelling for Ruby Jean's would make anyones day. We ordered at the counter. Staff was helpful and we didn't feel rushed. The comfortable furniture and energetic atmosphere made it an easy wait. I loved getting to watch the fresh fruit being cut and juiced behind the counter. Our food and juices came out quickly. Next time I'll avoid any juices with beets in it because I personally find beets so incredibly earthy and overpowering - but that's a personal issue and overall everything was totally delicious - and healthy! Food is fuel!

I absolutely love Ruby Jeans the food, smoothies and juices are good and healthy. Their protein bite balls are also delicious. The staff is always nice and knowledgeable and whatever they don't know they will go ask to provide clarity. The inside is really nice and relaxing outside of when they're busy and blending smoothies back to back it can get very loud so when I'm sitting in I typically just have headphones. But on a slower day it's pretty chill and the music is always nice. I I tried a lot of first today and can say I may get smoothies more often since I typically get their juices. "CURRENT"LY (smoothie): was really good and had a good balance of sweet and flavor with what all was in the smoothie. Salmon Benedict Bowl: was really good and the salmon was cooked perfectly. Whatever they cooked the salmon with was a little overpowering and the bread was soggy which I wasn't a fan of maybe I'll ask for it reserved with bread on top. Overall it was a good breakfast meal and fulfilling. Sweet potato brownie bite: was different but good, and it's cold which I wasn't too much of a fan of so I saved some for home and let it sit out it was better room temperature. I will say the texture and flavor is different but it's not bad and I could eat the whole thing, it would have been better in a bite size or ball.

The food, the location, the staff. Zero complaints! Ruby Jeans was a key part of my successful foray into veganism when I was dealing with some health issues and I'll always love them for that. But I had no idea how heartfelt and personally connected the owners were with their inspiration when opening this juicery. It was wonderful to chat with Raven and hear about not just the owner's story, but her's as well. The items that we tried: avocado toast, oatmeal, smoothies, sweet potato brownies, energy balls... everything was delicious. My favorite was the oatmeal, it was incredible!!! So flavorful. I can't wait to come back for more!

Perfect spot for a juice or smoothie. I had the one with peanut butter and pretzel bits. I love the outdoor seating and murals and look forward to hanging out there when the weather gets nicer. It is a little loud because of the blending but everything is made fresh and to order. Order was done quickly and staff were friendly.

There is nothing like Ruby Jeans. It is always fun to visit, and the food is always really nice and filling.

This is my new favorite place for an acai bowl. I don't know how I'm just now trying it but I love it. It's so refreshing

I went here once, smoothie wasn't bad, but I just wanted it to taste less healthy. I get that smoothies are supposed to be healthy but sometimes you just want protein powder or something that has sugar in it. The prices are kind of high too, but I get that it is local and important to support the community. They are healthy options in the area, probably wouldn't be my first choice to get a smoothie. If you want something more savory, opt for smoothie king or Robeks

This is such a cute place with delicious acai bowls. I wanted to try several items on the menu, but ultimately decided to go with a bowl. The customer service was fantastic and friendly. Highly recommend!

Love it all! I normally get protein smoothies like the Brewed Strength, but all of the food coming out of the kitchen I've tried is great also! Super fun vibe. Great people. Highly recommend!

The food and drinks were so good. I definitely feel this is a place to get a full reset on health. Vegan food surprised me, since I have never had it before. I had there brownies and powerballs and let me tell you my day was set. I had so much energy. The service was fast and very friendly. I can tell they take pride in servcing there customers. They have indoor and outside seating so great place to grabe some food and work remotely or just chill and chat.

Excellent smoothie, great service ,and a wonderful atmosphere. Highly recommend swinging by when you're in the mood for something healthy.

Been wanting to try this place for a while! My hubby and I both got smoothies. Mine was pretty flavorful but the consistency was a bit off. Like it's SUPER icy/slushy. So it's more watery than most smoothies I've had. My husband thought his didn't have much flavor and was icy as well. Perhaps we caught it on an off day and we can try again sometime! But for the price idk if we'd justify it. There's a lot of glowing reviews on here for them, so maybe it'll be better next time.

Definitely a must visit if you like healthy food and very relaxing atmosphere vibes. The "Keto" salmon salad tacos were delicious. Tons of blackened salmon, some pineapple, slaw and a green goddess dressing. I will add extra pineapples in the future but for real - SO yummy. I also got the açaí bowl, added peanut butter. Perfect blend of all the fruit and of course I felt energetic after eating it. Smoothies, juices, wellness shots, some other food options... a fair amount of seating. Counter service & trendy garage roll up doors make this a place I'd hang out in the future.

It was my first time here and the scene is peaceful with plants and good music. The manager swapped out the sweet potato curry with the veggie stir fry and it was fresh and delicious!

I LOVE THIS PLACE! Let me say that I love to support Black owned businesses. This business is so amazing and so special for a multitude of reasons, and one of the most important ones being that this young man, the owner, Chris Goode took a gamble by opening a Juicery and health food store in the inner city. Needless to say, it is flourished and the supported by neighbors as well as people in the city caring about their health, but also supporting the business that is well run. This young man is not just a business owner, but he is also a philanthropist dedicating his time to sitting on boards where the voices of people of color need to be. I 100% support the business, and wish him nothing, but the best moving forward as he is truly making a positive change in Kansas City, Missouri area. Oh, I'm addition the young men working there are super nice and helpful!

Best Smoothie in town the Royal Breeze. The Also had the scrambled that had egg spinach pepper and onions. Usually also tomatoes and cauliflower. I added one of my favorite sauces chimichurri to it and it didn't disappoint. A lot of healthy food options definitely will be back for lunch!

So glad to get to participate in an amazing event! Everything felt healthy and delicious. Staff is welcoming. Overall wonderful vibes.

I really love this place! I have been visiting Ruby Jean's off and on for a few years now, and I was so happy to hear they had a location on Troost. I drop by this location at least once a week after my morning water aerobics class, and I always go with the Green Dream. (I have gastro issues... so I know EXACTLY what I need, and I like what I like). -- They have multiple food options for breakfast and lunch, juice cleanse packages and more. I think my favorite part about this place is the unmatched aesthetic that includes large windows that bring in an abundant amount of sunlight for all the amazing greenery. This establishment is always clean and maintained well by the staff.

Great service with friendly staff. I ordered the acai bowl and it was everything I expected and more. I didn't get a picture because I ate it too fast. The bright colors of the store were welcoming and cheerful. I wish I lived closer so I could enjoy Ruby Jean's more often.

Just wanted to enjoy some me-time! This food was amazing , great customer service & great vibes. The front ladies greeted you with smiles & the atmosphere was very inviting. I will be coming back. I also received a free complimentary sweet potato brownie!!!

the açaí bowl is the best one I've had in KC for sure!! so yummy and a good size. very fresh and will easily drive out of my way to go get it.

This place is a 5/5 every single time! As someone who is not consistent in their "health journey" - the Ruby Jeans cleanses are always a great reset for me. On top of that, they really are delicious. I recommend a stop in at any location and take some to-go!

I have lived in Kansas City my whole live. Ruby Jean's is one of the most undiscovered gems. I had the pleasure of living across the street from this fantastic, healthy and unique establishment. If there was one food that I had to eat for the rest of my life, it would be the keto salmon wraps. I am always amazed by how wonderful my food tastes. They are always on point and they always serve my food with a smile. The only negative thing I have to say is that I wish that I could eat this meal all day. The hours are limited and I am restricted to making this a lunch-only spot. Oh, and for those of you driving - there is a parking lot on the side! Something we all can appreciate in Kansas City.

this place is SO good! so fresh! expensive but worth every penny. you won't regret visiting!

Love this place, it has a gorgeous fresh plant environment. I ordered the Gigi splash, very sweet and delicious. The ladies working the front desk were so helpful. Strongly recommend both going in person, as well as their catering services.

SO CUTE IN HERE. Amazing drinks and food. Would be such a cute space to have an event

Clean food is on the rise and places like Ruby Jean's Kitchen and Juicery are on the front lines! We tried the fresco island smoothie and it was very refreshing! We also tried the shots of ginger and even though it burned while it went down, we felt perfectly fine after a minute or two. I don't know if I'll do the ginger shot again, but I'm glad I gave it a shot! ;-)

A comfortable atmosphere, freshly squeezed juice, healthy food options, abundant seating, natural lighting, and good company, what more could I possibly ask for on a Thursday morning? The drinks and food might take a couple of minutes to make but that should be expected when they are making it fresh on the spot. I haven't had a bad thing at Ruby Jean's which is what keeps me coming back again and again.

I love Ruby Jean's! I have to come here every time I visit family in KCMO. Staff is really nice and you can see them freshly preparing the drinks. The space itself is fun and cute and bright. The Kale Yeah smoothie is my favorite - it's so creamy and almost tastes like it has Indian or middle Eastern flavors (prob the cashews is what makes me think that). The cherry bomb one is BOMB too. Not just your average smoothie place - the flavors are unique and fresh. Support local!!

What an amazing place. Their tables have outlets if you wanted to do some work here, their drinks are amazing, and their food is divine as well. I think their protein bowl with blackened salmon is especially a good thing to try. Great service as well.

Super down to earth little cafe, that is perfect to work or study at. They have lots of plants and windows that bring in a bunch of natural light! There is smoothies, juices, and breakfast and lunch items. There are outdoor tables as well that will be nice to sit at once it warms up.

Ambiance is great, juice was amazing! Perfect place to come do homework or wfh, there are lots of outlets on the center table. Good music taste too. Such a cute space

What a vibrant and colorful place! A large variety of menu items, juices and smoothies. You can enjoy a nice meal or a quick meal on the go depending on your preference. Friendly service and quality food and drinks.

I always stop by here if I miss breakfast in the morning to get a protein shake. It's a good place to just go chill and have a meeting. The service is great ALWAYS!

As I sit here on a frigid winter morning, days removed from Thanksgiving yet still full of turkey and remorse, I'm reminded of a recent visit to Ruby Jean's Juicery. This place is uplifting in every way. The bright, naturally lit new(er) space, along with the vibrant art and expanded menu are enough to pull me in. The juice combos have always been off the chain here, but the açaí bowl here was equally life giving. Let me expand on that a bit.. I used to be a good +60 or so pounds heavier than I am now, drank more soda than water and generally didn't have a clue about healthy foods. The biggest takeaway over my transition to living a healthier lifestyle over several years is that it actually feels amazing to eat healthy. Sure eating candy or french fries can provide that short term endorphin rush, but when eating healthy often with foods like Ruby Jean's, I feel balanced and sharp all day. I'm really glad to see them expand their food options here too because I don't go for juices as often as I used to, so it gives me an excuse to come in. Only thing I'd change would be some kind of loyalty program here because based on the fresh ingredients, the costs can tend to add up if frequenting. Add in the fact that this location is on Troost, long considered a dividing line in Kansas City for all the wrong reasons, it just affirms my thinking that Ruby Jean's Juicery is a big, positive part of our city's ongoing transformation. Staff is always friendly, parking is easy, and highly recommend checking them out.

One of my favorite juiceries in Kansas City. I am a huge smoothie lover and they have such a good selection of smoothies and juices. Such a colorful and open space, it just brings out the good vibes. My favorite smoothie is the Berry Strong. Sweet and perfect for a post-workout drink. I also tried their juices for a 3 and 5 day cleanse and I can attest that this was the easiest/smoothest cleanse I've ever done. The juice selection met my taste buds and was very filling and I experienced no side effects or withdrawals. I would absolutely recommend this place if you're trying to start or continue your healthy journey. The cleanse is a little pricey, but definitely worth it if you. I recently tried out their food menu and it did not disappoint. The AM Scramble was pure perfection and was a nice serving size. The eggs, cauliflower, red peppers, spinach, onions etc. I mean this meal was loaded and tasted great! Only reason I couldn't give 5 stars is because of the operating hours. I wish they were open longer. They close pretty early and are not open on the weekends, so you have to plan accordingly if you want to pay them a visit.

Stopped here on our way out of Kansas City and so happy we did. The smoothies were delicious (we got the pink zing and the Java butter)! Also the no-bake cookies and the muffin were great too and perfect for road snacks. In addition to the food, the space itself is so beautiful and welcoming. Can't wait to come back next time I'm in KC.

The Product - I ordered a Cherry Bomb Smoothie. Smooth, sweet, tart, cold and utterly refreshing; made with cherries, watermelon, lime, banana, and agave. I wish it had been 30 degrees warmer to enjoy it even more. The bowl that was being made while I watched looked awesome and will be on my list to try next visit. The Atmosphere - Very welcoming and open. A large menu yet clear and concise. Lots of seating options and plenty of natural light. The young lady that took my order and made my drink was extremely friendly and seemed like she was actually interested in my day, instead of just having to go though the standard back and forth routine. The Location - 30th and Troost. If you are long time resident of KC, you understand the negative connotation of that area. It was truly beautiful to drive south on Troost out of the Crossroads today and see the new residential and commercial development. I salute Ruby Jean's for putting such a healthy and beautiful space into an area that is on the rebound because of such optimism and hope. Another locally produced venture that is representative of what is great about this city!

Great vibes, healthy options, great message. Will definitely be returning and supporting this black owned business.

Black owned and killing it! This place is a must try when you come to KC. The menu is packed full of options for breakfast, lunch, smoothies and pressed juice. Right now they are only doing carry out but you can eat at a picnic table socially distancing. The smoothie was thick and full of healthy flavor. Not artificial ingredients there or in their sandwiches. We will be back here when we visit the city again. I am just so happy that they are really showing how it's done. This was one of our favorite eating experiences on the trip!

I absolutely LOVE Ruby Jeans! The food and the service is amazing! I love the bright colors and art that hangs on the walls, as well as all of the plants - it feels very much "alive". The energy is great and the owner truly cares about his customers and his community! Personal favorite thing on the menu are the acai bowls! I recommend this place to nearly everyone who visits KC or who wants a healthy meal option at a place a great vibe!
