Parking can be tricky here, as there are other businesses and the AC Hotel in the vicinity. My mom and I decided to stop in for a to go breakfast treat that was healthy and filling. The staff is always so nice and knowledgeable about the menu and products they offer. I went for the Beach Bowl, which is a blend of acai, mango, banana, and guava juice. The toppings are granola, honey, and your choice of one topper. I went with blueberries. While we waited, I noticed that they sell energy drinks, protein bar, and other goodies. They also sell protein/energy bites that they make in house which are my mom's fav. The bowl surprisingly did not melt on our ride home. Their acai is thick and so tasty because of the addition of the guava juice. It's not super sweet at all. The toppings were perfectly portioned and fresh. I love coming here whenever I'm craving acai. Rush Bowls has soooo many options it makes it hard sometimes to pick what I really want to try. However, I will be back soon to try out their smoothie options!

We both got poke bowls and everything was very fresh and delicious. Serving size was perfect and we both enjoyed our meals. My only complaint is that you can't build you own bowl, you can only select from their premade choices.

It was just a block to the shop. I was immediately greeting upon entrance. Young lady was very friendly. During our conversation, she's only been working a few weeks. This retail shop has good vibes! Pop music playing in the back ground. Amazing beachy island photos on the walls. Cool colorful chairs and wall decor. I ordered a bee Healthy smoothie with protein. $13. This smoothie was made with banana, honey, parent butter, cacao nibs, bee pollen and apple juice. With protein. We talked as she prepared my Bee Healthy smoothie. This was a very nice stop for a mid morning pick me up. Mahalo

We went on a Saturday morning, and they had 30% off all shakes. It did take a little bit, as there was only one person working when we first got there. There was plenty of seating, and they weren't super busy. I had the Blue Almond Berry Acai bowl. The blue base was super good, although both were pretty sweet. That isn't a complaint though! We also got the strawberry banana smoothie, which was good. I would not recommend the almond butter brownie. It was extremely salty.

Sweet Berries is in a great location near Sweetwater and midtown. They serve a variety a breakfast/cafe and lunch foods. From acai bowls, to breakfast sandwiches, to sweet treats, they have something for everyone! They also have an extensive drink menu as well. I went there around 9am on a Sunday and it wasn't busy at all. Upon walking in you are greeted with the nicest people. The staff is so friendly, accommodating, and efficient. They do a wonderful job running the eatery and keeping it very clean. The interior is the cutest thing. Very unique with such a fun vibe about it, it would be a great place to study. I absolutely love the telephone booth and floral accents throughout the inside. It is like nothing else in Midtown! Ordering is very simple and they will serve you your food once it is ready. I ended up ordering the veggie egg bites and the eggocado toast. The food came out within 10 minutes of me ordering and it was very fresh. You can tell they use higher quality, fresh ingredients. As the avocado toast definitely used real avocado and not a prepackaged spread. The protons are great and I thought the price was very reasonable for what I was served. The eggocado toast included 2 slices of a seeded toast, topped with avocado, lemon, red pepper flakes, everything bagel seasoning, a hard boiled egg, cherry tomatoes, arugula, and hot sauce. I really enjoyed this dish, as it was nice and balanced. The eggs were boiled perfectly, the avocado and tomatoes were fresh, and the hot sauce, seasonings, and arugula complimented the dish very well. It was quite filling too. Would highly recommend ordering this, it hit the spot! The veggie egg bites were also a hit. As someone who really enjoys the Starbucks red pepper egg white bites, I was very excited to try these. They certainly didn't disappoint and were better than the Starbucks ones! They were egg white frittata bites with cheese, peppers, onions, and chives. The bites were also a good portion. They were fluffy with great flavor and balance. Really great and I would also order these again. Overall, I had a lovely meal here and would most definitely return! The service is great and the prices are very reasonable. I thought the portions were just right and the flavors were on point. The eggocado toast was super yummy and the perfect way to start my day. The egg white veggie bites were also quite tasty. I cannot wait to return and try more of their menu!!

Not one shopping trip there that they're not out of something on my list. Additionally, their overall selection is far behind most of the other whole foods locations East of the Mississippi. Some staff is genuinely helpful though not well informed at times. The place is clean. Carts are in short supply even outside of busy times. Produce selection isn't great, and again, often items are out of stock. Herb and other plants for sale are often neglected (as in bone dry soil). No beverage carriers like in other WF stores. Clearly not the most enjoyable WF shopping experience and sadly the only one in the area.
