Frequently Asked Questions About The Celery’s 100% Organic Juices, Smoothies, Juice Cleanses and more!
1. What makes your juices “Food That Works for You”?
The Celery is a Portland vegan juice bar built on one promise: healthy food should taste amazing. Our juices are 100% organic, cold-pressed, and made with locally grown produce from farms in Oregon whenever possible. We never add sugar, preservatives, or fillers. Each bottle is nutrient-dense, delicious, and designed to fuel your lifestyle. If you’re looking for fresh juice in Portland, this is food that works for you.
2. Why choose cold-pressed juice over other methods?
Cold-pressed vegan juice is Portland’s favorite because it uses pressure (not heat or blades) to extract juice. This keeps vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants intact while giving a crisp, refreshing flavor. It’s also why “cold-pressed juice” is one of the most searched wellness terms in the city —and why The Celery is consistently rated among the best juice bars in Portland.
3. How long will your juices stay fresh and healthy?
We cold-bottle every juice and store it at optimal temperatures, so each drink maintains flavor and nutrition for 3–5 days. Leftover pulp is composted, supporting Portland’s sustainability values. Whether you grab your vegan juice in-store or through our juice delivery, you can count on maximum freshness.
4. Are your juices high in sugar?
Nope. Unlike many smoothie bars in Portland, we never add refined sugar. Our blends balance fruits with vegetables like kale, spinach, cucumber, and celery, giving you satisfying flavor without blood sugar spikes. This is real, vegan juice—clean, energizing, and guilt-free.
5. Why go organic—does it really matter?
Yes! Organic juice offers more antioxidants and fewer pesticides than conventional juice. Plus, supporting local organic farms helps keep Portland’s food culture strong and sustainable. We aim to provide healthy, earth-friendly and vegan drinks that taste amazing.
6. Can juice replace eating whole fruits and veggies?
Juice is a fast, convenient way to boost your daily nutrient intake, especially for busy professionals, students, and parents. While juice doesn’t contain fiber, it pairs perfectly with a balanced meal or one of our vegan smoothie bowls. That’s why The Celery is both a juice bar and smoothie bar in Portland: we give you options for complete nutrition.
7. Are juice cleanses healthy and sustainable?
Juice cleanses can reset your routine, improve hydration, and promote mindful eating. The Celery offers some of the best vegan friendly juice cleanses in Portland, complete with nutritional guidance, bottle return credits, and sustainable packaging. We encourage guests to eat whole, plant-based foods before and after their cleanse for long-term balance.
8. What are the benefits of adding turmeric, ginger, or greens?
Turmeric & Ginger shots: Natural anti-inflammatory powerhouses that boost immunity and help with recovery after workouts or hikes around Portland.
Leafy greens (spinach, kale, cilantro, basil): High in vitamins C and K for skin, energy, and alkalinity.
Superfood add-ins (spirulina, chia, blue algae): Extra nutrition that makes Portland’s healthiest juices even better.
9. How does drinking juice impact blood sugar?
Fresh juice contains natural fruit sugars, but we balance them with vegetables for lower glycemic impact. For best results, we recommend enjoying juice with meals to slow sugar absorption.
10. Why is The Celery one of Portland’s top-rated juice bars?
We’re consistently recognized for our 4.7 average review, high-quality organic products, and brilliant bowls and salads. We are also vegan-friendly across several items of our menu. But more than that, we serve with heart—combining clean-forward drinks, local sourcing, and sustainable practices that Portlanders can drink—and believe in.
11. What juices help with brain fog at work or school?
If you’re feeling cloudy before a meeting or study session, reach for Keep it Green (spinach, kale, apple, lemon, celery, cucumber, ginger) or Falls Creek (greens, pineapple, lime, cilantro, cucumber, ginger). Both are packed with circulation-boosting nutrients that support focus. For extra clarity, add a quick Turmeric or Ginger Shot.
12. What’s the best juice for an all-day energy boost?
If you want something fruity and refreshing, Out of Office (strawberries, pineapple, carrot, orange, apple, lime) is a natural pick-me-up. For a metabolism boost, Work From Home (jalapeño, kale, basil, poblano + greens) brings the spice.
13. What juice is good for a hangover or after a night out?
Believe or not, 100% organic juice can really help after a long night! Celery Juice rehydrates and restores electrolytes, while our Left Coast (orange, ginger, lemon, golden beet, carrot) helps detox and soothe your stomach.
14.What juice should I drink if I feel run down or like I’m getting sick?
When your body needs a boost, Beet Drop is packed with antioxidants that support recovery. If you’re looking for something lighter, Keep it Green delivers refreshing greens and vitamin C to help you bounce back.
15. How does drinking 100% organic juice impact my health longterm?
Most juice bars are only 60–70% organic, but at The Celery every juice is 100% organic. That means more antioxidants, fewer harmful residues, and no hidden fillers. Over time, this cleaner nutrition can help reduce inflammation, support gut health, strengthen immunity, and provide steady, sustainable energy—making organic juice a smarter choice for long-term wellness.
