    Custom: Mango & Pitaya base with strawberries, bananas, walnuts, chocolate & peanut butter sauce
    Lizzie Y.

    I decided to grab a playa bowl today and thought it would a great treat to have on this hot summer day. The bowl was $13.91 for an electric mermaid, pitaya based bowl. The pitaya began melting to liquid state before I got back in the car, which I'm not mad about because it is hot & humid out. I found that they were skimping today with the fruit, along with the pitaya base. I only received one singular kiwi and little amount of pineapple and mango... most were pineapple and only tasted 2 small pieces of mango. The bowl looked just really sad and it was disappointing but I still finished it to prevent waste. Not sure what is going on; I just know I won't be returning any time soon.

    I'd be cautious ordering here. I watched a worker go to the back and bring out a box of frozen banana while wearing gloves. She slammed the box on the floor (where employees were walking) to break the fruit apart, then put the box on the counter without changing gloves. She then handled the open fruit with the same gloves and put it directly into the blender. That didn't seem hygienic and was concerning to watch.

    Went this morning for the first time and loved it! Danny was so helpful and kind helping us with great with menu knowledge and recommendations. Isabella was so sweet as well. We got the green smoothie with protein and the dolce smoothie. Both were delicious!! Will be back soon.

    Perfect spot to grab a fresh acai bowl or smoothie on the go. Pricey, yes but you get the quality for the price. Their menu is vast so there is something for everyone. We got the Acai energy smoothie and our little one couldn't stop drinking it. It wasn't too sweet which was perfect for us. We got our orders quickly and the service was very pleasant. Love the vibes in here as well. The Hawaii beach theme instantly transports you away from the busy traffic of Milton.

    I absolutely love Playa Bowls. We were lucky and found street parking out front. You get greeted with a smile immediately and the staff was super helpful. The menu is relatively large to me so instead of reading through it, they were able to recommend bowls and smoothies based on what I wanted. The space is very nice with bold letters and fun colored walls. The playa bowls were yummy and the fruits seemed fruit.

    My first time visiting Playa Bowls! Got the Nutella bowl to go and it was delicious! The order was ready very quickly and held up pretty well while driving back to eat. Would definitely come here again, especially in the summer!

    The Stupid Cupid bowl is my go to! If you are a strawberry lover, you will absolutely love this bowl. Then with the added nutella drizzle and coconut shavings with the crunch from the granola- it's literally heaven in your mouth. Just got delivery which was SUPER fast and the bowl wasn't even melted one bit . Totally recommend!!

    I have to say - a chain is a chain! First and foremost the establishment did not feel clean. I can't explain it. I love a good smoothie that tastes fresh and flavorful which was not my experience at Playa Bowls. I noticed most of their smoothies have a milk substitute as their base which isn't my preference. I wish they had more variety on their menu which included some smoothies with juice bases. My smoothie tasted like a frothy strawberry milk. It was very underwhelming and disappointing. Maybe it's my fault for ordering a smoothie when they are known for their bowls....but overall the flavor wasn't fresh and it wasn't a smoothie consistency. I would go back for a bowl if I felt the fruit was fresh and the establishment was clean. With that being said, I'm not sure I'll return.

    Food was ok. The fruit was fresh. Oatmeal was watery. Cool looking spot. The service was decent.

    I started to see so many Playa Bowls pop up and I decided to try the one in Milton at night. They were extremely busy with lots of pick up orders. The service was lackluster at that location. They do not customize bowls so the bowl that we ordered was borderline too sweet for my liking. Location and decor were okay.

    Way overpriced. So not worth it. Subpar ingredients. Mango weren't even ripe. Asked for double kiwi, got 5 slices. When i asked about it they said they usually give 3 slices. So they didn't even double it... Granola tastes cheap Pitaya base is fine. Green base is really good NGL so 2 stars.

    Food was great! Service was quick and efficient! Loved the vibes! I have been to one on a coastal town and loved it so I had to stop by here in Boston!

I know "save the environment" but I'm really glad the spoons are plastic ‍ The guys working the truck are so funny and make the whole food truck experience that much better and makes me want to go back just to chat with them more.

We walked into a relaxed space with a consistently friendly and engaged staff, making the experience feel more personal than a typical fast casual stop. The acai bowl is the foundation of the menu and it delivers reliably, with the base thick enough to hold the toppings without turning into soup partway through. The Nutella bowl is the most popular order, and the combination of the rich spread against the acai base works in a way that feels indulgent without completely undermining the healthier premise of the meal. The mango bowls are a lighter, brighter option for anyone who wants something less earthy than the acai, and the Nica Bowl is another solid choice for a more composed build. The customization options are generous and the staff is helpful in steering you toward combinations that work if you are unsure where to start. Prices land in the eleven to thirteen dollar range, which is on the higher side for the format, though the quality of the fruit and the portion sizes make it feel reasonable once you are eating it. For a post workout meal or a lighter lunch option near Northeastern, Playa Bowls is an easy and reliable choice.

I've had some fantastic chicken rice soup there, various "toast" options which include peanut butter or Nutella, fresh berries, honey, and more and are always delicious. I've had white chili which I would definitely order again. They have a special toast option that has hummus, hot sauce and egg to which I always add mashed avocado: this is one of my favorites And I've had a fabulous French toast with real maple syrup, which is one of my all-time favorites anywhere and it is especially delicious here. This business offers all of this plus a wide array of smoothie beverages. One of my favorites is the PB cup smoothie : Banana, Teddy's Natural Peanut Butter, Flax Seeds, Organic Chocolate Protein, Almond Milk and Chocolate Drizzle. Because I love heat, and I added it to virtually everything, I ask for a generous shake of cayenne pepper. Don't knock it till you try it! The lunch is here are awesome as well. My favorite is the turkey apple flatbread sandwich. It has sliced turkey, green apple, cheddar cheese & honey mustard pressed in naan bread. There are only two instances where I've had food that I haven't liked here: one was a sandwich that had a arugula on it, but that is simply because I just don't like arugula. No fault of the establishment. The other was the tuna fish sandwich, which I believe had way too much salt. One of my coworkers had the tuna sandwich and felt the same way.
