Price was a little expensive, but I think it is on par with Wilmington & health foods. I have a feeling they probably have a lot of regulars that come here who work in the shopping center or live in the apartments nearby. There are places to sit in case you want to, but I think most people grab their food to go. There's only one size of smoothie.

My order was prepared super quick, done in less than five minutes. Coffee is from Java estate. Nitro cold brew was good, would get it again. Bubba Poké Bowl came only in one size, "large", but it was more like a medium or maybe even small. I was still hungry after eating it and had to eat more when I got home. It's listed on the menu as having crab, but beware, it's imitation crab. Overall, the Bubba Poké Bowl was alright. Sushi rice was plain flavored. If I do get a Poké bowl in the future, I'll have to order something else in addition to it to make it more filling. The smoothies and açaí bowls sounded good so will have to try those next time.

According to my Doordash I am an A1+ customer of this franchise restaurant…read more Typically, with businesses who care about customer retention, A1+ customers are treated well. If there's an issue it gets solved quickly. The Mayfair location of Playa Bowls does not care about customer retention. They would prefer to hire young and good looking women who are not the friendliest or the quickest problem solvers. I have ordered Doordash Playa 16 times in the last 20 days. Today was the first time I ever went in that store. Because I do not have my Doordash full ingredients memorized, I tried pulling up Doordash in the store. For whatever reason, it was not working. The pretty young girl behind the register could not care less and in fact seemed rather irritated. The other pretty young girl making my food did not understand what I was trying to tell them when I figured out that Doordash had marked their business as being closed. I made them aware of this but they didn't care. They suffered from an excruciating lack of curiosity and customer retention skills because I will not be spending any more money at the store. I'm gonna make my Doordash person go all the way over to the other one so they get the money. I promise you, when I stop ordering from your store you're gonna notice. Whoever manages or owns this location needs to consider hiring people based on their skills and experience with customer service. I know it's a beach town, but there are a lot of really talented young people out here. And all of them would be better than the pretty ladies you like to look at. That's why they got hired. ETA: Please do not let the responsive "manager" fool you. The service at that location is absolutely terrible. There were three young women working and probably 15 to 20 people in the store. The rudest woman at the register was on her phone most of the time I was in there. Don't go to this location. It sucks. It's slow and they always mess something up, I just left that out because I didn't want to be too harsh but since the manager has decided to respond, they forget a lot. When I DoorDash from this location, I usually have to remind them to include the smoothie because they have forgotten it five times. Five times on the DoorDash order of two items. I should be able to get my order under 10 minutes. That's not possible at this location, even if they aren't busy. Because the people who work there do not care about their jobs and it is very obvious as soon as you go into the store. Let's see what the manager responds to now. I guarantee the owner is male and hires young women under the age of 30 based on how much he likes to look at them, not their skill set. That is a lie that men believe believes themselves.

I love that you can choose different bases for your bowl and that they even have a sign that outlines the benefits of each. You can even do a mix of half and half.

Also to note, as a personal preference, there is a difference between cold brew, mocha, and drip coffee and I definitely prefer a nice mocha over their drip coffee. I met with the manager recently and you get free refills for drip coffee, and if it is cold brew it is $2.00 because it is a different bean from what I was told. While still relatively expensive, that makes more sense. While a little bit on the pricier side, Drift provides a nice place to eat and enjoy a nice time with others.

My boyfriend and I stopped in for coffee and, unfortunately, the experience wasn't the best…read more Before even walking inside, we noticed trash blowing around outside the front door. Once inside, the floors could've used a good sweeping as well because the same situation was present on the interior floors, both in the customer area and behind the counter. There was also a strong musty/moldy smell, and we couldn't figure out whether it was coming from the visibly dirty drink station, the spots on the ceiling that appeared to show water damage and/or mold, or somewhere else entirely. A fun little mystery we didn't ask to participate in. While looking at the menu, a woman working there approached us with a strange attitude, almost as if we were up to no good for simply reading the menu. We said we weren't ordering food, joined the line, and she immediately snatched the menus away. We ordered a medium iced mocha and a medium iced caramel macchiato. The macchiato isn't actually on the menu, but the barista said she could make something similar to Starbucks' version, so we went with it and were charged for a medium iced latte with caramel. I asked for whipped cream on my mocha, but was told they didn't have any and could offer cold foam instead. I agreed, then noticed I was being charged $0.80 for cold foam. COLD FOAM. At this point, babe, keep the foam. We waited about 10 minutes for our drinks. While waiting, we sat at an empty table, only to be approached by the same woman questioning why we were sitting down and pressuring us to order food. We explained we were waiting for our drinks, declined, and she walked away mid-food turn down with an attitude. Then our drinks were ready. We went to pick them up and immediately noticed a hair sitting directly on top of one of the lids. And the drinks? Both mediocre at best, especially considering the price. There were also several customers walking around barefoot while staff walked right past them without concern. I understand we're in a beach town and shoes sometimes become optional, but this cafe is nowhere near the beach. When people are walking barefoot just a few "feet" away from where food and drinks are being prepared, it's honestly pretty unsanitary looking. I'm not opposed to paying more for good coffee and a nice atmosphere. But mediocre drinks, high prices, visible cleanliness issues, a strong musty smell, barefoot customers, questionable customer service, and a complimentary hair garnish made this an easy never again for us. Unfortunately, I don't see us returning.

Has whole almonds in it, and the berries were not blended well- I would get bites of the full, frozen acai berries (seen pictures on top of the banana slice in the photo). Consistency was very off. Also, super expensive for the size. Pretty small bowl and paid $16.50. I could get a larger size for cheaper and better elsewhere. Nice atmosphere, lots of sitting, connected to the coffee shop. I would love to try their lotus energy drinks next time and would go back for those; they seemed great and had lots of options. I just definitely wouldn't get the acai bowl again.
