I love Playa! I'm so glad a WP location opened up. This is very convenient! My favorite thing to get here is the açaí bowl. They're always flavorful and fresh. I like making them at home, but going to Playa is an experience. The ambiance and vibes here definitely make you think you're on a beach. I highly recommend coming here if you think you need a vacation, even for a few minutes.

I've been eyeing Playa Bowls for a while, ever since I was walking in downtown White Plains and noticed their impending opening. I wasn't too familiar with the brand at that time, just that they specialized in açaí bowls. They have a few other locations in Westchester, so I decided to check out the Tarrytown location and had a good experience. I noticed that the grand opening here in WP was today, so I decided to head over and check it out. Playa Bowls is located centrally in downtown White Plains, right on Main St steps away from Mamaroneck Ave. Walking in, the aesthetics smack you in the face - it's very beachy with lots of aqua blues, pinks, and yellows. The company originated in NJ and summer Jersey Shore vibes are definitely seen here. The space isn't too large, but it's on par with other fast service spots. The menu contains a variety of bowls as well as juices and smoothies. I decided to go relatively simple and order the Pura Vida bowl. In addition to the açaí, it contained granola, blueberries, and strawberries drizzled in honey. The bowl was good - there was a good amount of each component without being overwhelming, and the flavors complemented each other. All the ingredients tasted super fresh as well. Service was fast and friendly, and overall I had a good first experience at the White Plains' Playa Bowls. I'm excited that this location opened; it's contributing to the growing diversity and selection of food offerings in White Plains and I'm looking forward to my next visit.

So far I have been really pleased with the food and service at this new location. My go to order is the Tropical, an acai bowl topped with blueberries, strawberries and coconut, among other goodies. I have also enjoyed the Electric Mermaid, with pitaya. I have been pleased with the quality of the fruits. They have a well curated selection of packaged drinks to go along with your bowl. There's a good amount of indoor seating, and when the weather suits, three outdoor tables.

Custom acai bowl with gluten free granola, almond butter, and strawberries.

Love love love playa bowl, I crave it every week! It's really nice that there is a gluten free granola option & their almond butter is literal crack it's so good. My only complaint is that they don't offer smaller sizes, sometimes I just can't eat the huge portion & it is never as good the next day after being in the freezer.

Service was incredible: they were patient with me as I tried to decide on what to order, ultimately going with an iced latte, pao de queijo and a coxinha, in my broken Portuguese. The coxinha reminded me of croquetas in Florida, a fried ball filled with delicious chicken and cheese. The pao de queijo, also amazing, just reminded me that Brazilians have the best ideas when it comes to bread! I did not order a sweet, but they had some very appealing brigadeiros and passion fruit mousse. They have a small seating area inside and out front, on the sidewalk. The inside seating area is filled with products from Brazil, showing that Araras, like its name suggests, is coffee AND more. There are a variety of products, like snacks and cooking staples, as well as skin care products and some small kitchen necessities (like stove-top coffee makers), reminding me of the importance of places like Araras for Brazilians living in the community who want to feel a slice of home.

We ordered a Classic…read moreMango-Pineapple Bowl with vanilla plant protein + peanut butter added ($17.02) and a 24oz Chocolate Cacao Smoothie with chocolate plant protein ($13.92). Everything tasted fresh and was genuinely delicious. The mango bowl in particular was so good, and the peanut butter on top really makes it. The large smoothie is a true large and works well as a filling, high-protein meal replacement. The only downside was the cost. Our total came out to $33 for two items, and I was surprised at how quickly the add-ons add up (protein and peanut butter drizzle aren't cheap). Great quality and flavor, just definitely on the pricier side if you customize. Would still come back when I want a clean, high-protein option, just good to know the extras can bump the total fast.

I'm always passing by and figured why not…read more Anyhow the smoothie cup was large and maybe I didn't do the right mixture or blend of fruits. It just didn't hit the spot for me. It was more like chicken without the seasoning. For $15 I expected more. I actually didn't mind that so much. What I did mind was the impersonal cashier taking my order. No smile no good morning no emotion. She ask for a name to call for the order and didn't even call the name, but the drink instead. I'm sure other people are use to that kind of service, but good service with a smile goes a long way. Perhaps she was having a bad day. I doubt I will be coming back. Service is make it or break it for me. Please have someone with a little more life behind the counter.

I honestly don't know what came over me, but I was at work the other day and was just really…read morecraving a smoothie. I'm not really a juice or smoothie person, but I was craving a thirst and that really felt like it would hit the spot (or at least something). There are a couple of smoothie places in WP so I decided to whip out Yelp to see which was the closest. Freckle's Juice was close by so I decided to order from them. First off, I had no idea that this was a Bronx-based business - that made me extra excited to try one of their selections. Browsing the menu, they have a nice variety of smoothies and juices and also guide you as to the benefits of some (immune boost, protein, etc). I was browsing and their Berry Pink stood out. This was one of their monthly specials and had a mix of strawberry, peach, orange, chia seeds, almonds, and coconut water. The smoothie was really good; the flavors worked well together and was still nice and cold even though I ordered delivery. Overall I was really impressed with Freckle's. While I seldom go for a smoothie, it's nice to know that this Bronx-born businesses has expanded to White Plains. I would definitely return for another beverage and to explore more of their menu.

My daughter took advantage of Freckles' 2-day Groupon deal and used it as her New Year's detox liquid boost. Turns out, her 6 Green Juices+6 Alkaline Smoothies were everything she wanted. Easily head to this City Center location in downtown White Plains on Level 3 to get your take-away pressed juices, smoothies or shots. The kid easily picked up her 12-pack with a complimentary reusable bag at that. I'd ask if this location also serves savory items like soups and bites similar to their Bronx location. There was a 'pick-up-by' hiccup with my daughter's order- but folks here managed to fixed that ASAP. There was some confusion from my daughter's part where she didn't select the correct location- but again, folks here prepped a brand new 12-pressed juice and smoothie pack to pick up New Year's Eve with no hassle. Thank you! I like this brand and particularly dig that a fly-by-night fluke doesn't own this company making it seem as if they're cut out for running a juice spot.
