Parched

Was in the area for an appt and arrived early. Walked over to Parched as I hadn't had lunch. Didn't really research the store before going in so didnt know what they offered. While smoothies were not ideal in cold weather, still a healthy and quick option. I was greeted as soon as I walked in then asked for a few minutes to peruse the menu. The place is bright and has comfortable seating arranged for groups or individuals.I settled on the Malibu smoothie and was surprised when told that their smoothies come in a glass that I could take with me. They use paper straws which while great for the environment is not exactly sanitary as they're sitting on the counter and not wrapped so anyone can touch them, etc. The lady serving me also put the straw in my smoothie which was ok but maybe better to keep the straws out of sight and offer to guests as needed. The smoothis itself was delicious, not too sweet as you get at other places. The paper straw even held up until the smoothie was gone. If I'm back in the area, would definitely visit again.

Great smoothie. A little pricey. Made fresh. It was very filling. I couldn't finish the bowl. Great decor and vibe in the store. Amazing customer service. She explained the different bowls and ingredients in them. There was a 15% code if you placed the order online that wasn't redeemable in the store. I couldn't place the order online because I was driving.

I love Parched! The servers are so friendly. The açaí bowls are delicious. The seating areas are cozy and comfortable. Pricing is fair for the quality of ingredients (& you get a discounted rate if you stay in-house and don't take disposable containers).

This shop is California AF. This shop sells two things, smoothies and bowls. They have a small dining area with tables/chairs and couches. You will also find tons of parking available in the private lot that it shares with the other businesses in the strip mall it is located. It it located right next to the military recruiting office.They have some signature smoothies including Sunset Blvd, Newport, Santa Barbara, Malibu, and Calabasas, in addition to a few signature bowls such as an Acai bowl, blue bowl, and dragon bowl. I ordered the Hermosa smoothie, which it took about 10 minutes for them to prepare. Now they serve all of their smoothies in glass cups to save on waste. You can take the glass with you and they have a punch card that they punch when you return the glass. Ten punches (returned glasses) = a free smoothie. If that is California (not just the names of the majority of the smoothies), I do not know what is. My smoothies was pretty good and the staff there was very friendly, patient and helpful. I liked the shop's atmosphere (and did not feel like bring the glass back) so, i decided to dine in and enjoy my treat right there on the spot. For me, this was a wonderful alternative to my usual fast food. I recommend checking this place out. You will not be disappointed.

The service was okay. I asked about a rewards program Ana they only have one for smoothies. My bowl was 12.99 for dine in. For Carry out it's a dollar more. You're able to put water everywhere toppings you like, which is great. The place is pretty quiet and clean.

Love love love this for the eastside of Indianapolis. I moved to this side of town early 2022 and I knew I was going to be missing out on the normal places that I liked to go for smoothies/acai bowls until I found Parched! I initially saw their business online on either Instagram or Facebook and I was hooked! A lot of places similar to Parched lack topping options and Parched did not fail me when I saw that they carried Goji berries!! I LOVE Gogi berries for my acai bowls in addition to honey for a sweetener. Everything about their bowls are healthy and refreshing. I typically get bowls to start my mornings since I am not much of a breakfast person. These bowls fill me up for half of my workday :D!Ever since my first visit, I have been going back and telling my friends about this place! It's super cute on the inside and I am excited to see how they continue to grow in the city of Indy.

I ordered: The sunset blvd. Stopped by here after dropping my son off to school. It was very clean on the inside. Staff was very helpful (I forgot her name) but she explained a lot of the things on the menu. She explained the jar program and how the use mason jars to not add more waste to the world. My smoothie was amazing! Will be trying again!

Overall a great place. The space is very inviting. There are lots of seating options indoor and outdoor. There are smoothie options, which come in a glass mason jar and paper straws. They also have açaí bowls, merch (candles, hats, shirts), and a selfie wall. The smoothie I tried was the Sunset BLVD. smoothie, it contained: peach, lychee, pineapple juice, honey, and Greek yogurt! It's a delight! The service was nice, I just wish she took a second to wipe the iPad before handing it over for me to sign. It was very dirty and slightly grossed me out. Other than that, she was great!

I'm hooked! I can't believe I live so close this place and I've never been before!!! Parched offers a lengthy menu with so many yummy options! I had the Acai bowl (first timer) I absolutely loved it! You can easily order online! Park in g was a breeze since they have their own parking lot! Everything is so fresh and made to order! I HIGHLY recommend this place! If you haven't been yet you simply must! The inside is super cute and Parched also exhibits many local artist! If you go to the Parched website you can also find a cool list of events!

I ordered the hermosa, expected a good smoothie but it tasted like it had No flavor, No sweetness, it tasted like a crayon! My boyfriend ordered a strawberry banana smoothie that was sweet cause they had no smoothie like that and it was barely sweet it was tarty tasting and tasted like coconut mostly. Overall wouldn't come back for terrible tasting smoothies.
