    Mango Berry (half açaí)
    Josh B.

    Look, what playa bowls has that its competitors doesn't is the variety of bases. Mango, drangonfruit, banana, kale, coconut, açaí. I love açaí bowls but I learned you can MIX IT. Game changing. I got the mango/açaí combo with granola, blueberry, strawberry, and honey. It was excellent. I was worried because there was only one size and it would be too small but it was the perfect size. My gripes with this place is that the açaí is tarter than açaí shops in the area so heads up on that, but mixed beautifully with mango. The other thing is that there is a lot of toppings but the bowls have very specific combos and are not customizable. The ability to mix (at no cost) does enable for more options though. The wait staff was friendly and I look forward to coming back to this new neighborhood staple :)

    So excited that this location is finally open! East lakeview needed a good smoothie spot and playa bowls is definitely it. I was really impressed with their well-rounded menu and quality bowls! Staff were friendly and service was quick. They have a few tables to eat inside which is nice, but it seemed like most people were taking theirs to go. Great rewards program too! I got the booster bowl which is blue with spurilina and I'm still thinking about it! Can't wait to come back and try more.

    the new location is very neighborly! I liked my custom bowl and the smoothie. Staff were helpful with choosing the toppings.

    Pura Vida Açaí bowl... yum!

    Best açaí bowls in the US!! Get the nutella bowl and add protein powder, that's my very choice!

    it seems to be a smoothie desert in Wrigleyville area, so I stopped on by to the only location that…read morewas showing up on my map - I love the theme here of each smoothie being named after an L route! It's a very cute idea and from walking in you could see that the employee was making each drink with fresh fruit and vegetables - I got the green line express and my friend got the purple line. we both loved our drinks and added the vanilla protein. I am about 85% sure that they forgot the protein in my green smoothie. - here's the thing. there was one woman working there who was running all over the place while talking loudly on FaceTime. she then plugged her phone in in the middle of the room and had her FaceTime on max volume. we waited as the only people in the place for about 10 minutes and she just like did random things. - there were boxes everywhere and it just seemed like they were in the middle of moving out? there were two stools nowhere near the counter on the side (that was where her phone was blasting) it was a total mess and definitely not passing any cleanly tests.... - so yes, tasty and yes, there's potential. definitely not any poison in the drinks, but?!? what's happening!?

The juice is so refreshing. Sonya, the young lady working the event was so kind and sweet. I want to try them all now! Learned they opened up a second location by me in Berwyn so will definitely be stopping by real soon to grab more of these healthy and delicious juices and so should you.

    We came to visit specifically for the coffee flight and it was a chill experience!…read more Firstly, we came at a 10 am on a Friday, and it was still full of people, so it's definitely popular. But the vibes are pretty good! There are a few comfy couches and mostly tables (didn't want to take pictures of patrons). The staff was great and they answered all our questions. The coffee flight was great! They said each drink of the flight came with a shot of espresso. Taste was pretty good for all of them! Overall fan off the Cinnamon Toast Crunch, the Biscoff tastes better before the cookie melts, the pecan pie was the subtle taste, and the banana pudding was good but make sure to mix it, the flavor in the bottom didn't mix well but it did taste good, so I wish I mixed it better. My wife and I split the flight but I drink a ton of caffeine daily, so I also had the cold brew. The cold brew tasted great as well! Great visit! If I could, I'd do the coffee flight once a month. We'll be back!

I love the specialty coffee drinks especially. It's nice and clean - there are various areas to sit including couches, comfy chairs, regular tables and chairs, etc. My pistachio latte and oatmeal were great - a little on the $$$$ side, but still good and the atmosphere helped. Baristas/employees were a bit on the unpleasant side unfortunately. Maybe it was an off day?
