    Pittaya bowl
    Lauren H.

    My absolute favorite açaí bowl stop. I love this one and the one on King Street. They knock the competition out of the water around here. Firstly. You get an enormous bowl filled to the brim with base and toppings. Secondly their granola is fantastic stays so crunchy despite all the fruit and açaí. Thirdly the options! My fat the largest and most diverse menu for bowls anywhere around. The staff was so friendly and I absolutely love the interior decor. Zero complaints

    Came in after a workout as I wanted something refreshing. Love the decor in this place! It's so cute and vibrant! Service was fairly quick and cashiers were nice. They have plenty of options to choose from including variety of bowls and smoothies! Definitely see myself returning again.

    Playa Bowls are always good, but I have to say the customer service at this location is the first time I've experienced such negativity... it wasn't busy, yet we were ignored for the first ten minutes from when we walked in to when the young lady finally came to take our order, even though she clearly saw us. I noticed everyone else that came in after us, she and another young lady who came out from the back also ignored. And while one of them was preparing the bowls, she kept staring customers down and giving them dirty looks and it was just really odd. Someone else pointed it out because it was all so confusing. Took about 20 minutes to get our bowl even though there wasn't a line and it wasn't busy. But the quality of the bowls were delicious as always. I'll keep coming back for that, but I do prefer the downtown location because at least the staff is much friendlier!

    I ordered the Pura Vida Acai Bowl and my husband ordered the Kowabunga Smoothie and it was really good. Staff wasn't the friendliest though. All in all I would come back again

    The Lola Green Bowl

    So delicious. I've never had a bad bowl here and I've lived in Charleston for YEARS. Service was fast and simple.

    Tropical Acai Bowl

    My girls and I love acai bowls....and we have been looking for a place for awhile! We have finally found it!! We love this place and so many choices for bases and toppings. Right now they are located in Mt Pleasant and Charleston (hoping for a Nexton soon ) Inside is super cute with lots of photo opportunities. Plenty of choices for bowls and shakes. Check it out if you want something that is yummy, healthy, delicious and filling. You won't regret the stop!

    Was excited to get the acai bowl for lunch. Unfortunately, their fruit is not fresh it was very old fruit figure a $15 bowl. The least thing you can do is test your fruit in the morning and make sure it's fresh to sell for your customer. I end up throw all the fruit away because it's already rotten. Very disappointed

    My go-to spot in town for a yummy smoothie or açaí bowl. Yes, it's a little on the pricier side, but I still think it's the best in the area. It's conveniently located in Mt. Pleasant with plenty of parking. I love the variety in their menu and the portions are amazing! They have a good loyalty program (that keeps me coming back) and fun monthly/seasonal bowls and smoothies. I LOVE coming here for a healthy lunch or as a healthy pick-me-up while I'm out running errands!

    The smoothie bar
    Alexis P.

    BIG bowls with tasty bases and loaded with toppings! The consistency and flavor of the bases (açaí, green, banana, pitaya, and coconut) are on point. My favorite is the creamy sweet indulgence of the coconut base mixed with the freshness and slight sweetness of pitaya. There's so much granola and fruit on top that you don't have to worry about getting a spoonful of smoothie only. All that to say- the smoothie bowls are fantastic here. You can also customize any bowl and choose more than one base on the menu. The service was great! Expect to wait a few minutes because they are hand making each custom order but it's so worth it. The staff was so friendly and happy we were there. In short, I felt valued and appreciated!! The venue itself is so cute. They have the cutest outdoor patio with regular tables, high tops, lawn chairs, and a waterfall. The inside has smoothie bar seating as well as regular tables. The walls are all painted with beautiful murals and it's just a cute theme overall. It looked very clean inside. They also have an open parking lot so no need to worry about paying for parking or parallel parking! I'm so happy they opened this location in Mt Pleasant!!! Spread the joy and give them a try :)

    Pink Pitaya Smoothie and The Dang Smoothie
    Jennifer C.

    Ordered a pink pitaya smoothie. Very good. I liked that no sweetener was added. Cool vibe and very cutely decorated, colorful little beach hut. Plenty of "instagrammable" pic opportunities. Service was good and quick. Pleasant employees. Clean place.

    I have never tried acai bowls before and the girl on the register made me try the acai base and mango base so I could order one that I would prefer more, she was so helpful!

The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating, and the service throughout our lunch was attentive and welcoming. Everyone at our table loved their meals -- burgers, fries, and sandwiches all around with rave reviews. I ordered "The Bird," and it was absolutely delicious: perfectly cornmeal-breaded with a crispy fried crunch on the outside while staying incredibly moist and flavorful inside. Instead of cake, our group brought blueberry pies and vanilla ice cream, and the staff graciously took everything to the kitchen, sliced and plated the pie, added generous scoops of ice cream, and even placed birthday candles on each slice. Such a thoughtful touch that made the celebration extra special. The atmosphere along the water made it even better. Watching kayaks, paddle boards, and boats pass along Shem Creek while enjoying lunch was the perfect backdrop for a celebration. This has definitely become a new favorite spot for our group! Bringing my husband back for a date night soon!

There's a café/bar with a wide variety that isn't obnoxiously expensive and plenty of great books to choose from (and thankfully no Booktok section or ugly stickers covering gorgeous covers). There's a comfy seating area to read your book of choice and enjoy a delicious beverage. There's also plenty of unique and creative bookish gifts to get for your loved ones. Kind staff, clean place (including the bathrooms) and a great selection to choose from. 100% recommend!
