Power Bowl
Jordan S.

Good bowls but definitely gives chain restaurant vibes. We tried a couple of the bowls, they acai base is ok, a little sweet but not bad. The Mango base is really sweet and syrupy, which isn't my favorite but some people may like. Just depends on how you like your bowls. HUGE variety of bowl options, which is nice. We also tried a couple of their cold brew options, both were excellent. We also tried some of their pumpkin protein bites, tasty little snacks Staff was all super friendly. They were getting absolutely crushed by the crowd when we came in, but still smiling and churning out bowls.

Pura Vida Acai Bowl
Bailee W.

There are so many smoothie and açaí places in Lexington, but Playa Bowls is the best one in my opinion! The ingredients are fresh and consistent. I've been a few times and have loved everything I tried, especially the Pura Vida Bowl and the oatmeal bowl! They have a massive menu and so many options to choose from. The inside is spacious and there are seats outside as well.

Dolce Latte Smoothie 20oz
Presley J.

So happy to have our very own Playa Bowls in Lexington! I tried the Goldie Mango Bowl, Dolce Latte Smoothie, and Aloha Smoothie. All were very unique and flavorful. Service was very helpful and fast. The inside is decorated so cute and on theme for the coastal vibe! Can't wait to try other smoothies and bowls!

Coco Craze Coconut Bowl
Vicky C.

First time trying Playa Bowl and I got the Coco Craze at Playa Bowl because I love coconut, and it did not disappoint! It came with crunchy granola, mango, pineapple, dried coconut, honey, and small pieces of frozen blueberry. The combination was incredibly refreshing and perfect for the hot weather right now. The staff was super helpful and nice, making the experience even better. Even though the environment can be a bit loud, it's always clean and colorful, which adds to the fun atmosphere. Highly recommend!"

My wife and I have been to countless Acai/Smoothie spots over the years but this chain is by far the best. It's consistently clean, friendly and delicious! Hope it never changes

Nutella Acai Bowl

I went with some friends and we all got the Nutella Açai bowls! They were really yummy. The wait was a kinda long but worth it!

My friend and I stopped by for a mid day pick me up yesterday …read more When we walked in we were the only ones there which was a surprise to me. I ordered a iced latte and my friend got a regular coffee. Normally I would add sugar to my drink but yesterday I didn't because it didn't need it. I think that if you can make something as simple as drip coffee or pull a smooth espresso shot you're definitely doing something right. I haven't had a bad cold brew/espresso drink there yet. They really are consistent with the drinks. My friend also ordered a plain donut but ended up with the cronut which she's not crazy about. They did try to fix the situation and gave her a keto donut. It goes a little sideways for me I did try the Keto donut and it was a nope for me. The glaze was really good but as for the plain Keto donut it was dry and crumbly. The guy at the register we've seen before and he's always friendly &helpful.

So disappointed with our visit today. We just left the airport and decided to wait an hour and a…read morehalf for them to open because we've been dying to try their donuts fresh first thing in the morning. We ordered a variety of 12 and NONE of them were even remotely warm. They have a good product but this is the first donut shop I've ever experienced to serve cold donuts upon opening.

Someone told me that Charles Barkley said Merrick Inn had the BEST fried chicken. I had that dish…read moreas well. We had a great time at Merrick In. We had 3 appetizers and we also had Cheese. We were planning to go to Panda Cuisine after this, but we all got too full. Gonna try again soon. I also learned about eating the skin on a baked potato when I ate here. Never heard that you could do that before. But this news was welcome because it meant more potato to enjoy! Got some bread puddin to top it all off. There were a lot of jokes and stories told. My one friend loves telling the story of A&W from undergrad. When we went to Kroger and got lost with all our bags of food. Those plastic bags were snapping left and right. Everyone had a giggle at that one. Then we debated the best way to make banana puddin. One guy said something about putting creamed cheese in it. That was Cheese. He also uses Lorna Doone cookies in it. Huh? Our other friend ordered "stewed tomatoes." All in all, I would rate this experience relatively highly. Some people criticize me for "handing out" 5-star reviews on here, but it is not true. Check my profile. I'm hard to please. But Merrick in was my pleasure. I'd come here again and stuff. I guess you could say I gave this place one star for every guy in our party. We're all 5-star guys for the most part, but we'll donate those stars to Merick Inn, giving them my first 5-Star review since I don't know when!

Our server was a delight and answered all our questions with a smile. We ate out on the patio which…read moreis a lovely area. The food was EXCELLENT! And the fried chicken is pretty darn good. Would have given it 5 stars if the parking wasn't such a nightmare.
