    Protein power Acai bowl. Sub granola for almond butter.

    Acai is mid - tastes like a frosty which is pretty much all Acai smoothies outside of Brazil. Crazy expensive - 15 bucks for a standard. Presentation and toppings are phenomenal. Friendly service. Go to Deep Purpl instead.

    Thrilled they opened this Chicago location. We loved our bowls and the service was fast, friendly and efficient. Stuck with the green base as it's the lowest in calories and sugar and enjoyed it thoroughly ( topped with banana, strawberries, granola. chia seeds and honey - yum). My daughter loved her mango Goldie bowl as well ( Nutella topping made it sort of a dessert like brunch ) . Highly Recommend - o have a feeling we will be regulars here !

    Playa Bowls in Bucktown-Wicker Park is my new go-to for smoothie bowls! The beachy, vibrant vibe is a perfect backdrop for their fresh and flavorful menu. I tried the Nutelloco- a coconut based bowl with added peanut butter. It was delicious, but I can't imagine it was THAT healthy. Super fresh ingredients though and just the right portion. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, making the whole experience even better. Whether you're a smoothie bowl fan or trying one for the first time, this spot is a green light. I'll be back to explore more of the menu (see pic).

    Absolutely loved this place, will be my go-to!! The food is all fresh! Service was fast. The vibe was beachy, makes you feel like you're in Hawaii or Florida. I did a "create your own" bowl and it was amazing that you can mix match your açaí bowl base. Prices are reasonable (tropical smoothie would be the same price but their açaí bowls are not freshly made).

    I'm so excited that playa bowls its now in Chicago! I stopped in bucktown for a sweet treat and found this. There is only one location so far, so it's definitely worth it to try most things in the menu. I had the Nutella bowl half stupid Cupid mix. I will definitely recommend the smoothies as well and they have a big variety of things to choose from. There is a reward program that I been using for years so you can get discounts, free bowls once in a while. Totally worth it

    Shoutout to the night crew for their amazing customer service and delicious açaí bowls! We showed up right at 8:59 PM, and they still greeted us with smiles and great energy. They didn't rush us at all and made our bowls with care--so fresh and so good! We really appreciated the kindness and quality even so close to closing time. Thank you!

    I like these bowls but they seriously charge 2 bucks for the most miserable amount of peanut butter

    The pitaya bowl was so good. There are lots of options on the menu so definitely going back soon to try some of the others. I'm really happy to see Playa Bowls expanding to Chicago!

    Nutaya Bowl

    The best healthy lunch bowl in town!! I love coming here and the reward system is awesome! Staff is so nice as well.

    I recently went back to Playa Bowls in Bucktown to try their new winter special menu items that really peaked my interest, and I love Playa Bowls, I personally think they have the best acai bowls around. Kicked things of with their Gingerbreaad Bites, a fun festive take on their regulat bites but with some gingerbread spice. I loved the Peppermint Mocha Sweet Cold Brew with a very pronounced flavor of peppermint mixed in with the sweet and rich cold brew. The gingerbread smoothie tasted exactly like a gingerbread cookie as smoothie, not my cup of tea but for the gingerbread lovers, this is for you. Now they have two new acai bowls starting with their Avalance Cocont Bowl having a coconut blend with blue spirulina making it look ice blue, but still fruity and flavorful. The North Pole Acai Bowl was more unique and my speed, it was acai based with bleuberry flax granola, banana, strawberry along with nutella and crushed peppermint. Delicately tart and layered with that delicious peppermint, huge fan of that bowl.

    Excellent addition to Damen Ave. Adorable spot, fresh bowls, amazing customer service (Analise sp? is the nicest). Not cheap but worth it! Playa Bowls has only been open for a few weeks and we've been 3x. Pro tip: order ahead on the app during busy weekend hours.

    It was a totally random night.

Sometimes when you're stoned you do the weirdest things and crave the weirdest stuff. I was scrolling on DoorDash for what felt like 67 years when I stumbled on Deep Purpl. Their menu literally screamed exactly what my munchies were demanding, so obviously I ordered everything. First up the Acai Bowl 20oz with banana, strawberry, kiwi, granola, organic honey, extra strawberries, and chia seeds. I am telling you this bowl changed me as a human. I had never had an Acai Bowl before and now I'm obsessed. Every fruit was fresher than fresh, the granola was a spiritual experience, and the balance of flavors was ridiculous. Then I got the PB Toast and I'm still asking myself why I hesitated to pay $6.99 for it. GAWD it was amazing. Crispy bread, peanut butter, banana, strawberries, blueberries, honey drizzle. The best $6.99 piece of toast I have ever had in my life. Because I clearly have no self-control I also grabbed the spinach and cheese empanada and malbec and beef empanada. No words. Everything was fantastic. Every single item was a joy to inhale and I will absolutely do it again. The DoorDash pick-up was super easy and the staff was incredibly friendly. The only minor gripe is they don't provide bags so I had to carry everything individually walking home, which was slightly annoying. But honestly the food, the vibes, and the experience? 10 out of 10. Will be back.

    It's okay. The acai tastes pretty nice however they barely put the toppings you ask for in the…read morebowl. There was like MABYE a scoop of strawberries and kiwi in my drink. For such a pricey bowl was a little off put by that. Otherwise pretty decent place

Originally on a mission for a smoothie, I was greeted by a friendly staff member and a much larger menu than expected. There is a slew of inventive food that all looked amazing, ranging from sandwiches to noodles and sushi. I opted for the Maca Picchu smoothie, a mini cranberry muffin, and an empanada. I was blown away by how flavorful everything was! The smoothie was creamy, lightly sweet, and very refreshing. The mini muffin tasted like a firmer version of edible cookie dough and was a perfect sweet treat. The empanada was not crunchy, but it was flavorful and the vegan cashew cream was incredibly smooth. I was really impressed not only by the taste of the food, but the texture and presentation as well. There is a level of detail and care that is apparent and really exceptional. Consider me a fan- I'm already looking forward to not only the next visit, but to bring more plant-based meals into my kitchen as well!
