The taps on acai bowls and cold-pressed juices are about to run dry at Ice Blocks. Pressed Juicery is set to close its Midtown Sacramento shop at the R Street complex at the end of June, according to local leasing activity, which means regulars should expect the doors to be shut by early July. The move frees up a roughly 976-square-foot retail bay in one of R Street's busiest stretches for shopping and snacking.
Broker Confirms Closure, Space Hits The Market
The Ice Blocks shutdown is not just rumor. A commercial real estate broker confirmed that Pressed Juicery will exit the space at the end of June, as reported by the Sacramento Business Journal. The outlet reports that the unit is already being marketed for a new tenant through the brokerage that handles Ice Blocks retail space.
Listing Spells Out Size And Pitch
In a recent post, listing agent Scott Kingston shared that the former Pressed bay is up for grabs and pegged the space at roughly 976 square feet, according to his post on LinkedIn. The marketing materials lean hard on Ice Blocks' steady foot traffic and roster of recognizable neighbors as key selling points for quick-service or similar users.
Why Ice Blocks' Retail Mix Still Matters
The Ice Blocks website lists Pressed alongside a mix of national and regional names that help keep the sidewalks busy throughout the day and into the evening, including Shake Shack, Warby Parker and Mendocino Farms. That lineup is part of the reason brokers see the mid-sized bay as prime territory for another food or specialty retail concept once Pressed departs.
Pressed's Local Presence And Customer Heads-Up
Pressed's official store locator still shows the Ice Blocks address at 1710 R Street, Suite 170, and the shop continues to appear on delivery apps, signaling that the company has not yet updated its public listings. Customers who do not want to find a dark storefront should double-check Pressed's online store locator for current hours and delivery options before heading over.
Churn On R Street Raises The Stakes
The R Street corridor has not been a stranger to turnover in recent years. Device Brewing ultimately closed all of its Sacramento locations in 2025 after its Ice Blocks taproom went on the market for lease, highlighting some of the pressures facing hospitality businesses in the neighborhood, according to the Sacramento Bee. That backdrop helps explain why brokers are moving quickly to line up a new operator for the soon-to-be-vacant bay.
For now, the Ice Blocks space is being actively marketed and could land another grab-and-go or specialty concept ahead of the summer rush. This story will be updated if Pressed or Ice Blocks management releases a statement on the timing or reasons behind the closure.
