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 definitely recommend this business! I cannot believe there are so many smoothie and fruit bowls…read moreto choose from. 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. Service is very friendly and staff is knowledgeable. Because everything is made to order it does take a little bit, but it is so worth it. Love the decorations and decor inside. I am excited they are opening another location in the Monkey Junction area.

Too greasy, A pastry? Too fatty. But something in between, healthy yet nothing green, fruity but not artificial. An açaí bowl shall do the trick, and I couldn't have asked for one just as delicious as this. With pineapples, berries, granola and coconut, this bowl hit the spot and then some, and made the perfect stop on my walk. It was one of the better açaí bowls I've had in the area, and I left feeling full, healthy and satisfied with my choices.

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.

I would really think a business would then close half an hour earlier then, especially when you advertise yourself as a juice bar.

We had to wait about 10-15 mins for our bowls but they were well worth it. It gave a good impression considering they're newer and this busy! My husband got the 8 oz Carolina bowl (Ube sorbet with blueberries, banana, granola and honey on top) and I got the 16 oz Witches Rock (mango sorbet, granola, blueberries, pineapple, cocoa nibs, and honey) with matcha sorbet as well. For anyone who is hesitant to try new/different things, it is essentially a smoothie-granola bowl. The added toppings give the sorbet/smoothie extra texture, taste and nutrients. We were both pleasantly surprised and really enjoyed our bowls! Aside from that they were not cheap, coming out to be about $10 each but everything was fresh and delicious so we will definitely be back again.

My husband and I are avid Açaí bowl fans & when I say this was the best we've ever had - I truly mean it! I would absolutely order their signature Shaka bowl again (and ask for extra PB & Nutella!). My advice is to get there RIGHT when they open! We did and we were so glad. The place really filled up! My only "con" is there's not any drinks - or much right nearby. So if you're a coffee person, bring your own! Do yourself a favor & check them out!
