Tropical Smoothie Cafe hours

Most Tropical Smoothie Cafe locations are open 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM seven days a week. Some stores extend to 10:00 PM on Friday and Saturday. The chain is closed on Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day at most stores.

Tropical Smoothie Cafe (founded 1997 in Destin, Florida; privately held with Blackstone acquiring a majority stake from Levine Leichtman Capital Partners in 2024 in a deal valued near $2 billion) is an American fast-casual smoothie-and-cafe chain (a direct competitor to smoothie-segment peer Jamba) with about 1,400 US locations and is known for hand-blended smoothies (Sunshine, Bahama Mama, Mocha Madness, Acai Berry Boost) plus a flatbread, wrap, quesadilla, and salad menu.

Common questions are about Sunday hours, what time breakfast ends (the chain serves all-day breakfast at most stores), the wellness add-ins menu (Whey Power, Plant Power, Vita Boost), and which holidays close every Tropical Smoothie Cafe (Christmas and Thanksgiving) versus which stay open.

One quirk worth knowing: Tropical Smoothie Cafe runs an annual National Flip-Flop Day every June where guests wearing flip-flops get a free 24 oz Sunshine Smoothie, a partnership with Camp Sunshine that has raised over $13 million for children with life-threatening illnesses since 2009.
