I've been patronizing them since they opened and I've witnessed their growth, from the service to the menu -- they've done amazing! They have a the cutest little picture props and the ambiance gives "come in, relax, have a açaí bowl and just vibe!" I've also visited the downtown and Lincoln park locations, and while the açaí bowl was still as delicious and the atmosphere was welcoming -- there is still a different feel compared to the Hyde Park location. This location gives study session, quick link-up, WFH session, and so much more. The music is always amazing and it's always a chill crew! 100/10

It's a place in Hyde Park I'd been looking to try another spot but of course it was closed. Back to searching and we found this spot and what a gem! Sammy, greeted us and she was absolutely lovely! It's a local spot in Hyde Park and the decor is amazing! I had a special, jerk mushroom taco plate with beans, rice, plantains and pico de gallo. Hubby had the Mediterranean plate with oyster mushrooms. Amazing! We were given complimentary lemonade in celebration of Juneteenth, thank you so much! They have vegan cookies and we enjoyed a lemon blueberry cookie and it was delicious! We truly enjoyed our meal and the chance to trying out a new spot! Support local businesses!

The Good Life smoothie bowl is my go to as it's bursting with flavors of different berries and topped with granola and fresh fruit, giving it the perfect diversity of textures to elevate every bite. The portions are enough to fill you up when you're in need of a healthy alternative to a quick meal. In addition to being a satisfactory juice bar, the locale also doubles as a supplement store. Being allergic to whey, I often struggle to find products that won't disrupt my hypersensitivity. The employees are always very understanding and helpful when it comes to finding vegan alternatives. With its great menu and impeccable customer service, I highly recommend any one of the locations to all!

The employee I want to give a shout out to is currently having a conversation with a customer, so I don't want to ask but he is soooooooo friendly and welcoming! I will FOR SURE be back.

I love me a good acai bowl, and Deep Purpl certainly has one. The concept is a little different…read morefrom acai bowl establishments I've visited before. Rather than a menu with several pre-created bowls, Deep Purpl starts with a basic acai bowl with options to choose your size and toppings, customizing each order. Sizes range from 8-24 ounces, and free unlimited toppings include a variety of fruits (bananas, strawberries, blueberries) coconut, granola, chia and hemp seeds, goji berries, almond and peanut butters, honey, blue chia pudding, and condensed milk. Premium toppings (extra cost) include pistachio cream, protein powders, and chocolate hazelnut spread. They also have Argentinian empanadas, however there isn't a vegan option so unfortunately I wasn't able to try these. I opted for the 20 ounce option with bananas, strawberries, blueberries, goji berries, hemp seeds, almond butter, and blue chia pudding. It was delicious, however after tip I paid just over $19 which seems a bit steep, even for something so delicious.

Playa Bowls is in a great location amongst a busy street to stop by if you're looking for a snack. The space isn't really meant for sitting and dining in, but there are some options to sit down for the quick bite. It can also get a bit loud with all the blending (to be expected!) I was impressed you could add quite a bit if you wanted. There are a great bit of options to mix and match, but I decided to go with a classic strawberry, banana, and Nutella. The açaí tasted exactly like the açaí served at Costco. It was decent enough and my friend's was similar, but oof, the prices aren't worth it. If I'm in a pinch and want something different than a smoothie, I'll consider stopping by again. But I can't say I'd really make coming back here a priority. It's stuff I can make at home for an eighth of the price.

One of the things I love about coming here is the customer service because it's really great, especially from one of the really nice girls who works in the mornings on weekdays (I need to get her name and edit this review because she's so nice) and their oatmeal bowls are some of the best I've had and I'm pretty picky about my oatmeal. Another positive is they can do a 100% nut free smoothie because they have separate blenders for people that can't have nuts and I think that's amazing. I've seen places that mix nut and nut free in the same blenders and that's so dangerous / frustrating. I'll definitely continue coming here
