4/25/26: holy smokes do they have a sh*t ton of bowls! Plus a large selection of smoothies & fresh juices. It was crazy (good) how many options they had. Parking: part of a substantially-sized shopping area so plenty of parking is available. Just beware the huge SUVs trying to back out. Atmosphere: bursting with colors & cool decor. Service: decent, not overly friendly but def not rude either. Drinks: a can of Poppi & the beach break juice (pineapple, carrot, ginger, and lemon). The juices were exceptionally balanced in the Beach Break and there was no overly dominant flavor. It was very good, though next time I'll likely ask for a glass of ice cubes because it was not cold, just cool Bowls: Electric Mermaid and Mango Berry. So effin' good, both of them. The bowls are very large, too, and I feel the price was reasonable ($13 & $12, respectively). Now that summer is upon us, Playa Bowls will be a great place to enjoy some cool food (figuratively and literally). :-) read more

Friendly staff and you can create any custom bowl that you may want. I had Açaí, gluten free granola, almond butter, banana and blueberries. Overall good quality but the açaí and especially the granola were too sweet for me, but if you have a sweet tooth, you will probably love it. read more

I was craving something light and refreshing so I stopped in here during my lunch break. First time trying this place! It's so crazy how this one little spot looks now. My friend used to own a cell phone repair shop right here years ago. The place is cute, bright, and clean inside. The girls working there were friendly and welcoming. They have a pretty large menu but I looked ahead of time. My order: Lola (green bowl) w/ 1/2 coconut base - $12 Mermaid Fuel juice 12oz (they were out of kale so I subbed spinach) - $6.99 Blue Mermaid Wave (bottled juice) - $7.99 The bowl and Mermaid Fuel juice were delicious and refreshing. The bowl was loaded with pineapple, mango and coconut flakes! I saved the bottled juice for tomorrow. Everything is pricey, as expected, but I don't go often read more

I have been to Playa bowls a few times. On this visit I was in the mood for one of their bowls. In February they have a special "bae bowl" which includes: Half Playa Pitaya Half Stupid Cupid Base (strawberry, banana & coconut milk) topped with blueberry flax granola, strawberries, coconut flakes, goji berries & chocolate drizzle. I opted for my bowl without the goji berries. The bowl was packed with flavors and they're not stingy with the toppings. The fruit was of good quality and fresh. The bowl was very filling and a healthy option for lunch. The store gives me San Diego vibes and is kept clean. If you're overwhelmed by the large menu the employees are friendly and offer great suggestions. They also offer a reward program which is a nice way to earn free items in the future. read more

We love this place! We go here regularly before my daughters swim practice and it never disappoints. We always get the Nutella bowl with an acai and pitaya base. I have not tried any thing else but definitely will soon. The inside is decorated so beautiful, such as please to the eyes. The bowls are so delicious! The fruit is fresh and arranged so nicely. The pitaya is so good along with the Nutella. I am sure their smoothies have the same quality. The workers are so nice and make the bowls quick. Definitely come here! read more

I love Playa Bowls and normally go to the Queen Creek area. I stumbled by this location and was pleasantly surprised, exactly the same quality as the one in Queen Creek. I had wonderful service also and got my half acai half pitaya Nutella bowl! The decor is so cute and fun, makes me want to go to the beach it makes me thinking I am one already. Great new location find! read more

Ooh, this place is good! After seeing so many reviews from other friends, I had to make a point to come here. I've been craving mango lately, and this place hit the spot. This menu is HUGE, so I definitely have a lot to get through. My order was the Goldie Mango, which was topped with strawberry, banana, granola, and Nutella. I loved this combination, but I did find the Nutella a bit much. The portions were good and really helped cool me down from our 115-degree weather. The service was great and place was very clean! read more

I love playa bowls! I went frequently on the east coast but was so disappointed in the Acai flavor here. The Acai texture was like ice and not smooth at all. The flavor was also terrible that I wasn't able to eat it. I had half mango base and that had a smoother and more flavorful consistence. The fruit is what I love most about playa and I think the ratio between the granola and Acai is perfect here. read more

I've driven past Playa Bowls a few times since they opened, and I finally decided to stop in on Friday morning. I was immediately greeted by one energetic employee (the other was busy preparing orders!). The menu is plastered on the wall immediately to your left upon entering, everything is spelled out well. If you don't like any of the combinations they make, they offer custom items as well! I opted for the Pura Vida açaí bowl - açaí, granola, honey, strawberries, and bananas. My goodness I have just finished paying when the one gal already had my bowl packed and ready to go! It made the short ride home without spillage, always a plus! The bowl was PACKED overflowing the brim! I really enjoyed this açaí bowl! The granola and honey complemented the açaí well. The granola is definitely on the sweeter side, which I liked. The fruit was also really fresh as well. I enjoyed this bowl for breakfast and ate about 2/3 before I was full. I truly believe their prices justify what you're getting, and I'll definitely return to try more! read more

Playa Bowls serves amazing açaí, and numerous other types of bowls. I tried two of the açai bowls, one being the Nutella bowl, both were incredible.

First time here, I think this place is new? Service was fast and friendly. The girl that took my order told me about the rewards program and this is conveniently right around the corner from my gym at F45 so no brainer. I got the pura vida bowl. Acai was a good consistency, not watery like at some places. Berries were fresh and they didn't skimp! But, I am a granola fiend, so I wish they would give more granola :( Maybe next time I will ask but definitely a nice little spot next to the "lake" of north Chandler. read more

Nothing like a Saturday morning smoothie to start the weekend off right! Ordered the Açaí energy in a 16 oz. and it was ready super fast. Definitely will be back to try the bowls! This location is extra cool bc you can get a coffee next door at Coffee Rush and sit by the water. read more

The bowls are usually great, and the ambiance is good. That being said this is the 6th time i have gotten hair inside my acai. I do not write reviews often, but make these people wear hair nets or something. I am tired of the fake demeanor the workers put on, just for me to end up with their hair inside my mouth. read more

Quick service, staff is super nice! Enjoyed my visit was a great breakfast, pura vida bowl is always my go to. Love all the bright colors inside and the free stickers of the month! read more

So far I've tried the Nutella açaí and the NICA bowl. They both were good but I'm a banana lover so I like that one more. I also enjoyed the boost smoothie read more

If you love a good acai bowl, this is the spot! They are big so come with an appetite. The fruit topping was fresh and the granola was delicious. I got a side of Nutella for a little extra indulgence. I'm going back to try the mango bowl, you can do multiple bases in one bowl! Highly recommend! read more

Came here for Veteran's day because the local news recommended it for Vets (free bowl or something of the sort). Went in and got discriminated right away, at first I wasn't sure all I asked was if there was deals for vets (girl, mid-20s behind counter) kind of scoffed at me and said military doesn't have discount or any sort of deal, I said ok that's fine. I stepped back just to see their menu and watched someone else come up (white male, 30-40 maybe) asked the same question, they gave him a free bowl just like it was advertised on locals news. Just laughed on the inside about what I just witnessed. Don't recommend anyone not Caucasian to come here (I'm a Pacific Islander) read more

My wife waited for her cold brew while three girls stood around talking and not asking if she received her order. Four customers after my wife purchased, received their order. After 20 minutes she asked the status of her order, to come back and state they did not have pumpkin cold cream. Instead of offering another drink they decided to do a refund. Another note, there was a new hire and the three girls were rudely talking about her instead of helping her catch up to speed with work process. Definitely need training for the employees on customer service. read more

Ahhhh amazing. Incredible bowls and great portions. My favorite is the Green Power bowl. My girls love the Tropical smoothie and the Tropical bowl (açaí base). The granola is a tasty treat on its own so I typically get it on the side! read more
