    I've been wanting to try this place for awhile. So glad I was finally able to come here. This place is Afro Latina owned. The owner also makes hats, shirts and art. There is also jewelry for sale. Really great energy. Excellent customer service. We ordered two smoothies and two juices to go. I ordered the Cardi Bacardi smoothie and I can tell the ingredients were super fresh because the smoothie never got watered down. I also got the Moon Tea juice to go and it was absolutely delicious, more on the sweet side. Highly recommend this spot.

    Black owned shop that offers custom drinks, shirts and hand made caps. I am a cap collector so I was amazed with what I saw in their designs. I picked up two caps and my daughter bought me a third. The lady in staff was so sweet. Really made us feel at home. I would return here for sure.

    Had the Nipsey Hustle smoothie. One of the best I've had in my life. We also tried the Crush On You smoothie, Platano latte and a breakfast wrap. Everything we had was fantastic, and obviously made with love. Perfect comforting breakfast after a crazy weekend. Thank you! Will be back next time we're in town.

    Marathon Matcha

    A corner of New York in the middle of Ponce City Market This bodega has it all- cute merch, vibrant music, electric personalities, and one of the best matchas I've ever had. I enjoyed the marathon matcha which includes bright blue moon milk. I'm a sucker for details and the heart shaped straw made me smile. Thanks for a delightful experience.

    I've been to ponce city market a million times and somehow had never been in here. Loved the vibes in this place. The staff was super friendly and asked if this was our first time and since it was they gave us some background info on the owner and the menu items. When I tell you I thoroughly enjoyed the midnight matcha and being a fellow numbers person I loved the pricing (7.77). I definitely recommend giving this place a try if you want a one of a kind drink experience.

    I was so happy to find a vegan spot inside Ponce City Market! It's tucked away into a corner but the place was packed when we popped in. I ordered the nachos and was shocked at the size of them! It's a huge serving and definitely big enough to share. They had lots of yummy toppings including edible glitter too!! What?? I didn't know I needed glittery nachos in my life until that moment. The shop itself is super cool with local art, good music on the speakers, and plenty of things to browse. Vegan or not, I definitely recommend checking it out!

    This is a great spot. The owner is from Brooklyn and is Afro-Latina. I enjoyed myselfit feels like you're in New York at a bodega getting a smoothie. The customer service was great, and the wait wasn't long. It's a great hidden treasure in Ponce City Market. They sell jewelry, clothing, and other unique items. I had the Poetic Peach it was so good Check them out

    La Rayia's Bodega... what can I say? I'll definitely be back! I ordered the G.O.A.T. for my dad, and he loved it. Thank you for your patience (and for answering my million questions with a smile). The whole vibe of the space is beautiful--full of art, afrolatinidad, and good energy. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, making us feel right at home. And the smoothies and juices? Always fresh and delicious. Can't wait for my next visit!

    LaRayia's Bodega is an Afro Latina owned business, in Ponce City Market. When you first step into LaRayia's it smells of incense, which is great! They have a lot of dope shirts, hats and other things you can purchase. I specifically went to try the coffee. I chose the Plantain Latte. I was told by staff that others have said it tasted like chocolate. It was absolutely delicious! It didn't taste like a plantain at all to me and like chocolate. I loved it. I was genuinely surprised and impressed. My friend had a smoothie but she couldn't remember the name of it but didn't care of it due to the kiwi maybe not being blended up enough (kiwi peel). She also customized it so it wasn't ordered as is. Great customer service as well! Overall, 10/10 for me. I enjoyed this place so much I will stop by again the next time I'm in Atlanta.

    This was an incredible hidden gem of a restaurant. My nephew and I skipped school early and decided to explore, discovering this spot tucked away within Ponce City Market. We were seeking something fresh and healthy, and luckily, they offered a vegan, plant-based menu that impressed us enough to promise we'd return. The service was excellent, and the atmosphere was vibrant yet comfortable. To find it, you need to look for the entrance located in the center of Ponce City Market, as it's not immediately obvious from the outside. Trust me, you won't be disappointed when you discover this unique eatery.

    Loved it here! Great matcha! Amazing vibe!! Friendly customer service!! I can't wait to come back and visit again!

    I stumbled upon this while I was at Ponce city market they have pressed juice smoothies and a variety of plant based items with merchandise and other healing items. I ordered the morning meditation, which has beet, orange, lemon and it was super tasty. I look forward to coming back again to try other things on their menu.

    Love the ambience of this place! The art is inviting and well placed, the space is very colorful and earthy, and the music is vibes! Aside from that, the service was very friendly, albeit a bit slow. We waited about 30 minutes for acai bowls. But, that's understandable- the kitchen staff is limited and it's a busy space. I love that for the owner(s). Also, everything is vegan - the waffles were way more tasty than anticipated. They have a crunch to them and the shell is crispy, while they are soft and warm on the inside. Must try! The acai bowl was just okay - but that's because I like a thicker consistency to the base of my bowl. I generally go for a banana base because of that. They only have acai. All in all, I highly recommend this place!

My friends really liked this place so I was curious as to why. So when we got there I realized it was a smoothie bowl place. It was a bit cold yesterday, but I can always do a smoothie bowl. However I say they had an oatmeal bowl, so I opt for that instead. Well When I got my bowl it was warm which I didn't expect I thought it was gonna be like overnight oats. So I was pleasantly surprised. Bust then I was soon disappointed. I ordered the blueberry/strawberry bowl, and literally that's is what I got no pizzazz or anything not even honey on top. It was the berries and sliced almonds. Not bad right, butbwjen i went to tale my first bite? The oatmeal me just felt stiff. It was steelcut oats but it had ABSOLUTELY NO FLAVOR! It also was kinda stiff. I then asked for a drizzle of honey to try and soften it up and add some sweetness to it, but it didn't help. Usually oatmeal should be a bit softer not soupy but a bit loose and creamier. This was very stiff. I asked the server in the future could the oatmeal be made with coconut milk or something, she said they normally just use water, which I guess is fine but they dont use enough water so that the oatmeal is a bit more loose. And it has ZERO flavor. The berries did t add much flavor at all. I just figured a place that was steadily busy, would have more to their oatmeal bowl than just oatmeal with berries on top. The should take these bowls off the menu. I said next time I go I amd gonna ask if the can mux in sime coconut milk and honey when they make it and see what they say. So it is worth going back b/c my friend enjoyed her Açai bowl, and I do wanna try one for myself b/c they have so many different smoothie bowls, but unfortunately for me opt for the oatmeal one b/c it was heartier..oh well... So yes I recommend but dont get the oatmeal unless you do what i suggested and ask for some type of milk or even just more hot water amd honey to be added..that is if you don't like stiff unflavored oatmeal.

We did stop at the location that upstairs that just does coffees. It's smaller and really only has enough space for five people to be in there comfortably placing their orders. There's also a location downstairs that is larger and has a fuller menu of the smoothies and food items. If I was waiting in line to see what I wanted to get. These two young ladies had just received their drinks and I was looking at them going that looks absolutely amazing and asked what it was. They told me it was the salted maple, shaken espresso, and I immediately looked at the menu to see what was in the drink. Everything sounded amazing until I saw where it said coconut cold foam. I am not a fan of coconut at all. I inquired to the barista if there was a different kind of cold foam that I could get instead of the coconut. He told me that it did not have a heavy coconut taste and even offered to let me try it to see if I like it. I really appreciate him for doing that because I would've totally missed out on an amazing drink. The cold foam was delicious and he was right it did not have a very coconut flavor. He also recommended the cashew milk as an option because it made the drink creamier. I had never had cashew milk before, but I'm a big fan of cashew so I decided to try it. I will say this is by far one of my favorite coffees that I've gotten at any coffee shop. And I do highly recommended. The barista was absolutely amazing. He took his time making our drinks.

Couldn't decide which I wanted more so ordered all 3. The avocado toast was terrible. The avocado tasted as if it was a grocery store spread. The toast was not toasted but that wouldn't have helped. The bread itself aspired to be mid. To try to save it they sprinkled salt and chile flakes. There was no integration in this sandwich. It was disjointed and low quality.... I threw it away. The almond butter was better... it was fresh but still had to deal with that non toast ...struggling to be mid level bread. The big problem with the almond "toast" was the sliced bananas on top. They weren't ripe. Sweet bananas go nicely with almond butter but starchy green bananas not so much. The açaí bowl was acceptable if not extraordinary. Its main problems were unripe bananas and almond butter that was just placed in the bottom of the bowl to be discovered as the unsuspecting eater was nearing the end of the açaí. I like almond butter but a large glob in the final few mouthfuls is not my idea of best usage. There are far better versions of all of these. Off the top of my head Kale me crazy has superior avocado and almond butter, flower child much better avocado toast and a number of the Açaí chain restaurants have better Açaí bowls.
