Took my daughter along with me to try PLAYA bowls for the first time today. I tried 2 new Yuzu bowls and 2 new smoothies for their Yuzu summer specials. This location is in a plaza out in Avon. The staff is friendly. The store is brand new and clean. Seating outside and a comfortable interior. My favorite for its beauty and flavors was the Yuzu ocean bowl with their house made granola. read more

Playa Bowls - Yuzu Coco Bowl - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Avon, Connecticut

I stopped for a lunch/snack, and it was a little hard to find a bowl I wanted because there were so many options , and so many had coconut. Yuck. But then I found a banana one with Nutella, and it was delicious. I would have one every day if I could. The woman taking orders was friendly, and I think she would have helped me pick one if I asked. There was no indication I couldn't have modifications, I was just trying to make life easier. Eating in was pretty quiet and there were tables going down a hallway leading to the back. I can't wait to go back. read more

Playa Bowls has a huge selection and the possibilities for creating different bowls seem endless. I was excited to return and appreciated the offer for Yelp Elites to get a free bowl. I ordered the Stupid Cupid bowl, which I would recommend to anyone who enjoys chocolate covered strawberries. It has a fruit base and is topped with a plentiful amount of strawberries, coconut, granola and Nutella. The bowl was visually appealing, filling and a perfect lunch!! No need to add any other toppings, but I appreciate that there's an option to customize. The staff is always friendly every time I go to Playa Bowls. The bowls are great for any time of day. Highly recommend!! read more

Amazing service and options! Don't see the smoothie or bowl you are looking for? Describe it to your server and they will hook you up! I got a smoothie with dark berries, banana, oat milk, whey protein, peanut butter, and possibly more. It was DE-LISH! This could definitely be habit forming! read more

11.4.25 I was here last week for a yelp event and I had to come back for more. There was a slight issue last time but I'm sure we've all encountered a mishap or not great service with even our favorite go to spots. Everyone deserves another opportunity to regain your patronage. We all make mistakes or have off days from time to time. The acai bowls are so tasty and delicious. The fruit is super fresh & sweet. I'm hooked with the mucho mango one and the acai bowl with the Nutella. Even their pineapple is extremely sweet. All of their fruit is fresh. They even have a row of bananas laid out on the wall. This is the wall separating the area where they put these divine bowls together and where we wait for these succulent bowls. The service was better this time around than last. It just goes to show everyone needs a second chance sometime. Very nice and good service. They're very fast with getting your food to you. It's an extremely clean place to eat with a nice counter sling the wall to sit and eat if you want. It's very very vibrant & colorful in here and it works. It's a welcoming enjoyable environment. They do it well. The prices are solid for the quality & amount that you get. It's well worth it. I've never been able to finish a bowl in one sitting. Ever. Oh yeah and parking is easy peasy with a large lot. read more

The Playa Bowls started in 2014 in New Jersey by Robert Giuliani and Abby Taylor; they purchased a blender, refrigerator, freezer, and patio table and started creating acai bowls for the public. Now, there are 200 stores nationwide creating fresh superfruit bowls, smoothies, juices, and cold brew coffee, with quality ingredients. There are 7 bases for the playa (beach) Bowls; from coconut, pitaya (dragon fruit), acai, coconut, green, mango, banana, oatmeal, stupid cupid, and booster base. On these bowls, there are a variety of toppings. I decided to get a 16 oz. Pink Pitaya smoothie which had Pitaya (dragonfruit) and coconut milk for $8.99. This was simple and tasty. Next time, I look forward to trying out the bowls. This location is located in the Avon Marketplace. The interior was cute and tropical; there was a lounge area with a fireplace. There were plenty of seating and the customer service was good. It was a good treat and it definitely brought me back to the tropical islands, I look forward to going back. read more

Playa Bowls - Nutella Acai Bowl - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Avon, Connecticut

Fresh fruit! Well made! I ate after the gym and felt amazing! It was very filling as well! The portion size is huge!

"I could change my life to better suit your mood Because you're so smooth" (Carlos Santana) A very cool beautiful, tropical themed place where the old Yankee Candle used to be. They sell a big variety of healthy drinks and snacks in the form of bowls and smoothies. The bowls can be Acai, Mango, Pitaya, Coconut, Green, Banana, Chia, or Oatmeal based. The Smoothies are mostly plant based in the Banana, Coconut, Peanut Butter, Strawberry, Pineapple, Matcha, Orange, Blueberry, and Acai families. You can make your bowl or Smoothie to order or go with one of their signature combinations. We enjoyed a 16 -ounce Kowabunga Smoothie, one of their signature choices. It was made with Banana, strawberry, blueberry, and coconut milk all whipped up into a thick frothy drink that was refreshing and not sweet at all. It cost $8.99 and contained just 230 calories. They're a great addition to the plaza. read more

We totally adore this little spot. It's beautiful and always delicious. Coming here has become a regular family tradition. Thank you for the delicious food and memories! read more

Went to the opening of the Avon Playa Bowl and it's a very nice location. Very warm customer service and like the decor they have there over the Glastonbury and West Htfd one. I enjoy the coconut milk base and my daughter enjoys the banana base. The coconut milk base is very light and I enjoy the coco craze. You won't be disappointed with any of them as they are so filling and refreshing. I usually split one w 2 bowls to share w my daughter as it's too big to eat by yourself read more

Playa Bowls has recently opened a new location in Avon. I was in the mood for an açaí bowl, so I popped over. Their menu is huge, they have a variety of different bases you can choose from. I went with the Chia Pudding. I got the Chia Tella, this is a Chia Pudding base, topped with granola, Nutella, banana, strawberries and coconut flakes. The space inside is very beachy and inviting. They have a lot of available seating at the bar tops by the window or inside by the colorful walls. There are also a few spots outside. They have their signature blue lounge seats outside. My order was ready pretty quickly. It was delicious! The strawberries and banana were fresh, the granola was crunchy, and there were plenty of coconut flakes for some added crunchy sweetness. The chia pudding was sweetened with agave. I like how the bowls aren't huge, and this isn't a heavy portion, so I could finish it on my own. I also signed up for their awards program, so I can receive coupons towards future bowls. Playa Bowls is a great addition to the area. read more

Hands down my favorite place to go after a run! The fruit is always so fresh and they put the toppings on so neatly. The service is usually good- one of the workers re-made my bowl once when they accidentally put honey on it and gave my friend a new bowl for free when she spilled it! The place is always clean, but the music is a little loud and I usually can't hear my friend's voices so we take advantage of the outdoor seating. read more

Really happy they opened a location in Avon- great bowls, smoothies and customer service. We ordered the special mango bowl but I've also had the pitaya and açaí bowls as well a couple of the smoothies. All are really good (though somewhat sweet). Looking forward to trying other menu items in the future. read more

Playa Bowls - Mango bowl with collagen, bananas, strawberry, granola and Nutella - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Avon, Connecticut

Went here and tried the bowl with coconut base, bananas, Nutella, blueberries, granola I forget exactly what it was called. Honestly I'm not sure what my expectation were whether it was going to be healthy or not. Either way, it was absolutely delicious and refreshing without being heavy like ice cream would be. The portion was also very generous and I was able to share it between two people. The decor and staff were friendly and casual, with a beach vibe. Plenty of seating. I can see it being even more popular in the summer as a healthy refreshing treat. read more

Healthy and delicious These bowls are off the charts! All the ingredients are so fresh and flavorful. The Açaí bowls are my favorite. I especially love the Stupid Cupid So so good. Check these guys out! read more

Good smoothies, a lot of different selection in flavors and options for açaí bowls and almost everything dairy free.

Picked up lunch again for my daughter! This is her favorite place and quickly becoming one of mine! They are so helpful to me when I'm deciding what I want. 10/10 so far! read more

Playa Bowls - Mango bowl special - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Avon, Connecticut

Selection is good. Service is okay. Price is high. Bowl was fresh and tasty, but nothing to bring me back again.

i LOVE playa bowls - so good! sad that they changed their pitaya recipe, it used to be the best but now it's so much more loaded with sugar and cals :/ read more

Service is seriously lacking. The girl taking out order was very grumpy for no reason. We gave her a simple order. Won't go back until they hire normal people who actually know a thing or two about customer service. read more

This was my first time ever having a "bowl". I was always like what's the big deal? I was pleasantly surprised and glad this opened up in time for summer! I ordered the Pura Vida w/o the honey or granola and added mango and kiwi. So frickin yummy!! Cold, smooth, tasty and fresh! All the fruit was fresh and I also added bee pollen for that energy kick. My son also has never had one before and now he's excited to come here all the time. He got the Costa bowl and it was so big he had enough leftover to eat for breakfast the next day. They were very refreshing, filling and you weren't left feeling guilty. The staff were friendly and let us know they needed to make a fresh batch of banana so it would take a few mins longer. They have a few chairs out front to sit and enjoy your selection, nothing fancy. I would say this was a great intro to this type of food and we plan on visiting quite often for a cool down this summer! read more

For a newly opened franchise, the folks here are knocking it out of the park. The food is fresh and carefully prepared. The shift manager I've encountered each of the 3 times I've gone is exceptional. He remembers faces, is conversational, and teaches his staff improvements in a tactful way. I heard him tell a staff member to bring a "stay in" order directly to a customer rather than make them get out of their seat to grab it. The food is healthy and yummy and I hope they are here for the long haul. Well done Playa Bowls! read more

I used to frequent the one in boca raton daily even though I lived above a raw juice. This place is the best of the best for açaí. Big fan of the green power bowls and the ding repair juice! read more

this company uses SWEETENED non-dairy milks. these smoothies have a ton of added sugar because of it. Their coconut and almond milk are the "original" which means they are sweetened. so disappointing that they're parading around as healthy, when it's clearly packed with excess sugar. do better playa. read more
