The Dallas-based juice bar will serve cold-pressed fruit and vegetable based juices beginning Wednesday, July 10.

Owner Brent Rodgers quit his job as a stockbroker and took a year sabbatical to travel the world before setting up shop in Buckhead. In his travels, Rodgers discovered people all over the world had embraced juicing.

“I discovered juicing while in Peru, but it was on the Syria-Israel border when I had a light-bulb moment,” Rodgers said in the release.

“There was this long line which I thought was to get across the border but it was actually for fresh celery and carrot juice. I realized then, that this was a way of life for many people and not just a trend.”

Root Juice’s 16-ounce products are made up of an estimated two to three pounds of locally grown fruits and vegetables, according to the announcement.

Root Juices pushes its produce through a hydraulic cold pressed juicer, ideal for yielding a higher level of vitamins, minerals and live enzymes, and a shelf-life of up to five days.

  1. Are the “locally grown fruits and vegetables” local to Atlanta or Dallas?

    I’ll stick with Arden’s Garden.

  2. The place is great and the people who work here are as nice as can be! Hope they are successful. I do wish they had the fruit and process on display though.

  3. I would like to know if these are organic fruits, vegetables, and how you clean them before pressing them. I am a stickler for clean food!
    Thank you.

  4. You guys are a bunch of dirty liars and I will NEVER buy anything from you again… and I will be sure to let all of my friends know the same! I ordered your “pre party pack” and you changed out the “cold kicker” for “fat burner” without asking me first. I left several messages with no response… sent several emails with no response…. when I FINALLY got someone on the line he said that a substitution was made because stock was low due to the fact that you were moving. I explained that “Fat burner” tastes terrible, I would not have selected this, further more it made me nauseous. He said that he would credit me back for the change and apologized. Well, he never credited me back… so I was forced to file a dispute with my credit card and now you guys are LYING and saying that you actually sent me out the “cold kicker” and I received EXACTLY what I ordered. Well that is not the case…. you have provided me with TERRIBLE customer service and a TERRIBLE product…. you should be ASHAMED.
