This is my 2nd time coming to this location and I blame my bestfriend for getting me hooked! The space is very clean. It's a chill atmosphere and playful with beachy theme. Love the music they play and the employees are always kind. I've been hooked on the limited edition Passion Glow smoothie! Try it before it's gone! It's a mango base with coconut foam and collagen. Very healthy and delicious! This is perfect for a hot day in FL. Try it out when you have a chance! read more

Wanting to try some of the bowls. We ordered an açaí bowl, mango bowl, and kale bowl. It was a quick service, and they got our order ready in a few minutes. The bowls were refreshing and tasty. It's a family-friendly place, and it'll be good to eat this when it's hot outside. read more

Rude childish employees. $20 bowls and they make you wait a half hour because their miserable app won't work and denies every card. Call the store to be hung up on and when I ask for a manager no answer... place is clearly in the dumps. Never giving them my business again. read more

Delicious bowls! This is one of these few locations that offer a mango base, which great if you don't like the açaí base and pitaya (dragon fruit) or just want to try something new. The decor is vibrant indoors, beach vibes hence the Spanish word "playa" The fruits are delicious and fresh and service was prompt. A great quick stop before an escape game next door! read more

Service was quick and bowl was great. The decor is beachy with surfboards. A little sticky in some places but I was happy to find a healthy option with nutrient-rich ingredients in town center. read more

This is always a hit in our house because what teenage girl doesn't love açaí bowls. We got two bowls...coconut and açaí. My husband got a oatmeal bowl. The service was great and it was very clean. My only feedback was....my mango was not ripe at all so it had a horrible taste and my husbands oatmeal bowl was a little lack luster. Overall still great for a chain. read more

Very nice place and good bowl overall. Ordered a Pura Vida bowl, It was good but the acai base was a bit sweet, still a good bowl nonetheless! I added protein to my bowls to make them a true meal replacement. read more

I tried a mixed base bowl last night - Togo! Two amazing bowl combinations in one - the banana strawberry coconut milk base from the Stupid Cupid bowl, and the Pitaya base Electric Mermaid bowl. I've never been to an "açaí bowl" shop with So many options! I stood there for a good 2 minutes deciding to what I wanted bc too many things sounded amazing. I'm really happy with my choice. I would happily order the exact same thing if I went again; but if you are like me, we gotta try more things! I will say playa bowls did just move to my top 3 spots here in Jax to order a bowl like this! It was slam full, traveled well, all of the fruit was fresh - not soggy or spoiled what so ever, I had some white chocolate drizzle on the top, and my bowl was not melted at all by the time that I got home to eat this. I cannot think of any ways this place could get any better, seriously. I mean Look how cute the design of the store is! I've been wanting to go here so bad ever since a fellow Yelp elite/social media creator mentioned how delicious this place was! (thanks alexa) I'm so glad I finally made it in. The TownCenter is such a good location too. This place is in the same shopping plaza as Panera Bread. They even had Siiick skull stickers to take home (for free) that I definitely grabbed on the way out to add some swag to my obnoxiously big, gym water bottle. If you haven't caught my drift yet, what I'm sayin is, yall need to try! read more

The perfect pick up for a hot day! I tried one of their summer specials, the Beach Bum Bowl and really enjoyed it! Comes with a strawberry and açaí base which I loved! The strawberry base is something different that I've never had before so I enjoyed trying it. The staff are also really friendly and the aesthetics are a vibe! read more

I came back again and everything was even better than it was the first time! I came around noon, and the natural light coming in the giant windows completely changes the vibe. I came at night last time, so things felt more bright and upbeat. This time I ordered a regular cold brew with oat milk (no flavorings). It was the perfect pick me up that I needed! I also ordered the Coco Berry Bowl. It has SO much fruit on it! The employees were extremely friendly as always. It was a great spot for coffee and a meeting! read more

Tried this place via Uber eats today and it definitely been added to my Jax favorite açaí/smoothie bowl locations. I'm a fan of Nutella on my green smoothie bowls and this place is one of few that can make that happen. The presentation of the bowl was beautiful. They put the perfect amount of Nutella topping on the bowl, not too much as I've had before. I decided to order the Nutella Açaí bowl and do a half greens base with additional granola and Goji berries. This combination was so amazing. So much so I forgot to take a picture of the bowl before devouring it. I also ordered a Mermaid fuel juice and added Ginger. Highly recommend this for a nice treat and healthy meal alternative. read more

I love Playa Bowls, sometimes I come 2-3xs a week and it's not cheap. I recommend not coming at 8:30pm. They close at 9pm. You will not be greeted and you will get someone who speed talks you for your order. I wanted to say sorry for coming close to closing time but not after the work sped through my order and dropped the bowls on the counter and walked away. Nope. read more

The service was horrible, the teens in the town center location were super rude telling people to leave the store before closing time.

A friend of mine told me about this place and I've been dying to try it. I was nearby and decided to stop in. I'm so glad I did. The place is new and clean. The color and music give you a vacation or island vibe. You can smell the fresh fruit as soon as you hit the door. The menu is robust so it took me a minute to decide. I was conflicted because I wanted an acai base but I also wanted a green base. That's when the cashier advised me I could do half and half! That was perfect. I chose the Nutella toppings, minus the shaved coconut. They allowed me to substitute the coconut at no extra charge so I chose sliced almonds. I took the bowl to go and the packaging was even nicer. It was a tight lid which is perfect for my clumsiness. I drove across the way and waited til I was seated to open the bowl after the first bite I knew this was my new favorite smoothie bowl spot. All the fruit was fresh, and the bases were cold but not frozen but cold enough to not be a slushy after holding it in my hands for some time. I haven't stopped thinking about it since I left. My only negative is that there isn't one on the Westside closee to me but hopefully the owners see this and work on that problem lol. read more

We love coming to Jacksonville to try out all their items. Açai bowls, protein shakes. Are amazing and prices are reasonable. Our 13-year-old loves the ambience of the store and the bathrooms are clean. There are lots of places to shop nearby. read more

This location is at the town center it was easy to find and see. It has seating inside and a huge menu. I wasn't feeling adventurous but I tried their chicory coffee cold brew which is made from the chicory root (it is popular in New Orleans). They didn't have any soy milk which was a bummer but I got it with oat milk and a side of fruit which included the biggest blueberries I ever seen! Along with strawberries and diced pineapple. I would definitely pop in again when I'm in the area for a snack. read more

Açaí bowls have been my recent obsession and, Playa bowls does it the best! Their large selection of bases and easy to mix and match toppings ironically make it hard to choose. The indoor decoration is so welcoming and fun. There is a lot of space and seating, a great place to treat yourself and/or your family for some much needed dessert. read more

Got the Nutella açaí bowl which was DELICIOUS. The proper amount of ingredients and proportions to everything was great. Enough crunchy granola throughout! Very pleased but a little pricey :/ read more

A little on the pricier side but the bowls are huge and the açaí ratio to toppings is amazing! We got an açaí and a pitaya bowl and both were good but the açaí was better! We absolutely love the flavor in every bowl we get! They have a good rewards system and the atmosphere is super cute and fun! Everyone seems very friendly and their service is fast! read more

Went there for a healthy meal. Saw on their site they are a "healthy treat". The Apple Asai bowl was about 140g of carbs and 60 some grams of sugar and about 300 calories. It's like drinking 2 or 3 cans of coke for carbs or sugar. Nice people, service was fine but it's not healthy. It's like Dairy Queen with roughage. read more

I was excited to know there is a Playa Bowls in Jacksonville as I just relocated here last month. However, I decided to come by and order an açaí bowl but the woman working was unfriendly and did not greet me. Seems very racist like they do not welcome black people as customers. I will not be returning. read more

I work across the street at Milan Laser and super excited they opened up across the street! Totally addicted to the Chia Tella bowl. The atmosphere is super cute ! read more

I got an açaí bowl here for the first time and the açaí base was so sweet and almost tasted like chemicals I couldn't even eat it. They barely put any toppings on top. $15 is insane for a bowl of barely any fruit. Definitely sticking with Juice Tap. read more

this location is amazing! I used to go to one in Tampa so the expectations were set high, and this was no disappointment! the very kind girl at the front helped me pick the nica bowl, which was huge and very good! the store also had great music which i loved while i waited only a few minutes for my bowl! read more

I'm so disappointed. My wife and I really like açaí bowls and pitaya bowls so we were looking forward to trying this new place at Town Center. When we walked in the door the music was so loud you couldn't even carry on a normal conversation. We left without ordering. It was that bad. (And no, I'm not an old person!) read more
