Tropical Smoothie Cafe To Open October 17 On South Garner Street
Happy Valley’s own Tropical Smoothie Cafe is set to open its doors on Thursday, October 17, at 132 S. Garner St., an employee confirmed Wednesday. Plans to open a State College site were revealed in December 2022.
The location is housed underneath The Maxxen and next to Penn State Hillel’s Gutterman Family Center. Tropical Smoothie will join El Jefe’s Taqueria and Mezeh Mediterranean Grill beneath the high-rise apartments, and a Buffalo Wild Wings franchise location is in the works, too.
Tropical Smoothie’s menu features over 20 smoothie flavors plus smoothie bowls, flatbreads, wraps, quesadillas, and salads.
According to a sign on its door, Tropical Smoothie will be open seven days a week from 7 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. on weekdays. On weekends, the eatery will open at 8 a.m. on Saturdays and 9 a.m. on Sundays and operate until 9:30 p.m.
