Abran S.

Utterly enjoy this place, I have come in the last week about 3 times. I've rekindled my relationship with healthier foods And this place rocks it! The service is always very friendly and helpful. Now I was a little sad they took away the chia pudding, it was my favorite! But for the giant menu with many choices it was easy to find something else to enjoy! The interior is very beach/island vibes with great music playing.

Stupid Cupid- Special Bowl
Tamee C.

Calling all sweets lovers! These bowls are so yummy they almost feel illegal! With so many options, Im sure you will find something you'll love. The service is friendly and the employees seemed to enjoy working there. The decor is super cute and beachy and the place was very clean. They even have a rewards system for frequent flyers! Definitely recommend

Coco Craze- Coconut Bowl
Karla C.

This was such a good find! I loved how this place feels like a little shack in some tropical destination, it made me feel like I was on vacation! The bowls here are pretty generous, my husband and I got one and we shared it and were pretty satisfied. I got the coconut base with a bunch of toppings and Nutella on top. It was delicious! The staff were really friendly and they moved pretty fast. We will be back!

Gabby was pretty cool and awesome you should definitely recommend the dragon berry, she was very helpful and helped me pick out the best order thank you gabby pretty awesome person!!

Booster Bowl- Special Bowl

The smoothie bowls are delicious! They are very quick to serve you. The bowls are filling and taste amazing. 10/10 recommend!

Playa Bowls can always be relied upon to produce good quality tasty bowls. This location is no exception.

My favorite place now for meal replacement or just a sweet, healthy treat. Service is 5 stars here. They let you sample the base no matter if you ask for one or 4! Service with a smile and quality as everything looks picture perfect when served. We tried the fruit bars yesterday, and boy, they are tasty. The protein bites are next and maybe a banana coconut bowl with pineapple and Nutella, coconut flakes try it you will be happy you did. Smoothies have no added sugar, so if you want sweet, ask for honey or Agave to be added.

Playah-mazing bowls! Walking in.....the bright cheery colors and decor put me in a happy space. Think beach. The menu posted on the right wall was huge! They have açaí bowls, dragonfruit bowls, coconut base bowls, green base bowls, chia pudding bowls, smoothies, and juices! And if you can't decide what to get, you can half/half your bowls with what you like. We ordered the oh mega chia pudding bowl and coco craze bowl. I really enjoyed the coconut base sprinkled with granola, coconut flakes, fresh cut bananas, pineapple, mango, and drizzled with honey. Fresh, healthy, and guilt free! (In my mind : D) Friendly service and I look forward to coming back to try other items on the menu.

I first discovered Playa Bowls in Darnestown, Maryland - just a few weeks ago. I was nearly devastated because I felt like I was leaving a good thing. But aha!! There are two playa bowls in San Antonio, one that's about 15 or so minutes from my house. #Winning This Playa Bowls is located in a shopping center off of the S 151 access road, next to a Torchy's and Dave's Hot Chicken. There's a shared open parking lot, but note that it can be busy & you may have to drive a loop to get parking. This location is much smaller than the one back home in MD and doesn't offer as much seating. However, it's just as bright and vibrant. The staff are very friendly and ordering is very quick. It's National Mango Day, so I tried a new bowl (the Goldie Mango Bowl - add white chocolate). It's yum! My eldest stuck with her normal Dolce Smoothie but I added Nutella. She said that she got a glob of PB so I guess nationwide they just don't blend super well lol. Irs still good!

Dragonberry- Pitaya Bowl with half coconut base. Subbed strawberries for blueberries and added coconut flakes
Jazmyne M.

If you're looking to stay on the healthy side of a dessert, this place is it! Satisfies the sweet tooth with healthy fruit! I tried a mixed dragon berry bowl. Half Pitaya and half coconut base. I kinda thought the bases tasted watered down but they were still good. Loved the crunch of the granola and the fruit toppings are beyond fresh! They have a huuuuge menu! Can't wait to come back and try more! My husband had a sweet cream cold brew and loved it! Perfect balance of sweet and coffee.

Mango Berry & Electric Mermaid- (half mango/half Pitaya Base)
Vanessa F.

The playa bowls are so fresh! We had the mango berry & electric mermaid...both half mango/half pitaya base. They were both delicious! The customer service is super welcoming and quick! The ambiance is clean and refreshing! Our new go-to playa bowl location!!!!

Nutella- Acai Bowl
Jalai G.

Cute little shop with coastal decor. Small seating area with tables and a couple wicker seats. The staff are usually polite. I've been about 5-10 times and it takes about 10 minutes for the order to be ready on average. I've done order through the app for pick up and ordered at the counter. They have a rewards program on the app and give you coupons. Very delicious bowls. I've tried the regular açaí bowls and the mango based bowls. They are large.

Bowls n smoothies
Tony B.

Our first visit to this new place was good. Service was quick. We ate inside which was small but nice. Each table has 2 chairs. Most people were getting orders to go. We got the coco craze bowl, pineapple smoothie, Booster bowl and Booster smoothie. They don't use milk so it's a good place for people who are sensitive to dairy with a vegan friendly menu.

There's plenty of outdoor and indoor seating. Indoors is clean, spacious and airy with the redolence of great coffee. After absorbing the vibe, the barista, Tosh, greeted me with the kindest smile and reminder of my go-to drink, which surprised me as this was my first time patroning this location. Turns out, he remembered me from a coffee shop where he worked in the past! Side note: he's awesome! I ordered the Mofawar which I am OBSESSED! It's beyond smooth , with a rich, full-bodied flavor with the aromatic hint of crushed cardamom, which leaves a sweet treat at the bottom of the cup! I also tried the chai which also was tast and flavorful but nothing tops the Mofawar in my opinion. Service was pretty quick but keep in mind it may take longer for the specialty drinks due to the process which they are made. This is a great place to meet up, study (free WiFi) or just grab a specialty Yemeni drink and go!

Definitely worth checking out if you're looking for something a little different in San Antonio!

Once we arrive, parking was around the side of the building and it had an open concept where kids could play in the back area. When we arrived inside, we were quickly greeted, and the smell of coffee was in the air. The staff were extremely nice and explained their top sellers of their seasonal menu. Census place was called coffee and beer. I decided to get both and tried one of their special beers that were cold brew. both coffee and beer were great and I would definitely love to come back again. So if you're ever in the mood for some delicious coffee and some exceptional beer along with outdoor family time, then this is the place for you!

And I enjoyed the fall vibe flavor. Lots of table seating and available parking outside. Friendly service and drinks are brought to your table when ready!

It's a different kind of feeling, watching someone you look up be fed to the canvas. MMA is not like a normal sport where you can always do some mental gymnastics and hang onto a "the refs stole that game" or "one bounce different and we win that..." No. You have to sit there and watch one of your heroes seemingly lifeless on the canvas. Every time you open Instagram you have to watch it again. Anyways, I needed a pick me up and knew they meant business when the lady at the counter had one of those McDonalds like headsets on. Even though we were the only ones in the place, she was ready for battle. Stay ready so you don't have to get ready. As I was waiting for my 24oz cold brew ($4.95) to help me through the 5 stages of grief, I took in my surroundings: It's almost like a corporate office trying to cosplay as a coffee shop. It's what I imagine a coffee shop at the Meta "campus" would look like. There was even a little conference room with 3 flat screen TVs hung on the wall. Super interesting. I still don't know how to feel about it... would be a great place to work out of though. Cold brew was solid and did its job in getting me through the 4th stage of grief. THANK YOU BEANS & BREW!
