    Really happy this place opened up near my house. I come pretty often to get an Acai bowl for work the next day. I've recently tried their smoothies and really enjoy those as well. Although they are pricey I think it's worth it. The interior is very homey and they have been doing their best to enforce social distancing within the store.

    First time here at this location after attending a fantastic Yelp Event at the Ronkonkoma store. Angelina , the owner of both shops gifted us with certificates of which I used today . Thank you again ! There is plenty of parking available here . I liked that the space is large and bright with a sizable counter area and there are games to play too! The store is spotlessly clean ! The girl at the counter was extremely pleasant, professional with topnotch and quick service ! I brought a friend with me and we both enjoyed a Waffle with Acai and fruit . I opted for no bananas and my friend had hers with Nutella .They were sweet and crisp, served in a cute box ,smothered in fruit and Açaí.! So satisfying and filling !! I also indulged in a White Chocolate Mocha coffee! Bold and delicious. I have to remember for the next time to stir it as all the sweet goodness was on the bottom of the cup ! Will be back again !

    Regular sized green bowl without coconut shavings; added extra honey and kiwi!

    SoBol has been my go-to sweet treat for a few years now but this particular location is the reason for my review. Not only are they ALWAYS squeaky clean, an extra important requirement right now because ... COVID, but they are also so incredibly friendly, patient, and courteous. With an extensive menu, it can sometimes be a while before I know exactlyyyyy what my tastebuds want. Nonetheless, the staff is always willing to provide suggestions and samples. Today was my second visit for the week because Allie, one of the employees, was kind enough to invite me back for their Frontline Friday's promotion where those on the frontline can receive a complimentary kids bowl. I expressed that I wish teachers were on the list of those recognized for the promotion and she was kind enough to extend the offer to me.

    I've been coming to the SoBol in St. James for years and always loved it--especially when it was…read morerun by local young people who were kind and made the environment feel warm and welcoming. But my experience on 4/5 around 3:55 PM was humiliating, upsetting, and flat-out unacceptable. I have a speech disability--I stutter--and while I was trying to order (a regular-sized açaí bowl with Nutella and mangos), the employee helping me walked away mid-order without saying a word. He went into the back and brought out someone else to take my order. While I struggled to speak, he stood in the back and stared at me the entire time, watching me with absolutely no empathy as I was visibly anxious and uncomfortable. It felt like I was being put on display--like a problem they didn't want to deal with. I ended up typing my order because I was so embarrassed and anxious. Let me be clear: my stutter is not the issue--your staff's reaction to it is. The lack of patience, the complete disregard for basic human decency, and the way I was made to feel less-than--it was ableist, plain and simple. I never thought I'd have to say this about a place I used to genuinely enjoy, but I left feeling ashamed and angry. If there's new ownership, it definitely shows--and not in a good way. I hope serious action is taken, because no one should be treated this way for simply speaking differently.

    Why hasn't this Ronkonkoma Playa Bowls place gotten any reviews yet? Well hey, I'm happy to start…read morethings off and throw them the five stars they deserve. I mean I've already been here at this aesthetically beachy location at least five times and at this point it's easy to see they are legit in their bowl making abilities (and then some!). Now what is a playa bowl? Well maybe you're more familiar with SoBol açaí bowls, a company that originated on Long Island and has a location all over the place at this point. I do love me some SoBol, but oh does Playa (a New Jersey originator) take the idea of açaí and blows it up! This is really seen across their massive menu with not just açaí and pitaya bowls available, but also mango, green, oatmeal, coconut, and banana bowl bases as options. Woah. My wife has already become a true fan of the mango bowls while for myself, I've also enjoyed those, but I truly love the banana bowl bases. Yum. Playa Bowls is more than just a bowl spot though as they also boast a nice list of smoothies that are just as legit. Case in point: the orange power smoothie (orange, vanilla protein, pineapple, coconut milk) is your summer time necessity. Fruity, creamy, and delicious. What's also pretty darn tasty is their Playa cold brew. Boasting chicory coffee concentrate (something you often only find in New Orleans), Playa Bowls brews up a formidable (and icy) cup of joe. Just as important to all of this is the friendly staff and reward system/app that is used here. Though a mostly younger group of employees, they seem to dole out your order at a reasonable speed and I've yet to have any issues when ordering through that aforementioned app. The app compiles rewards and also gives you special offers which just adds to the greatness of Playa. Overall, I'm sorry to say that as good as SoBol is, Playa is just a better. It's tough to beat so many bowl bases that are equally delicious and when you throw in the smoothies, coffee, and plenty of rewards via the app, I just need to get down on the ground and start bowing to the bowls. Playa bowls, that is. Now hopefully this one five star review will get the juices flowing for others to come and experience the tastiness found here in this Ronkonkoma spot.

    This plays bowls location is super nice in Station yards! I love their peanut butter protein bites…read moreand their cold brew is so good. I think at certain times when you buy a bowl, you get a free cold brew, which is super nice.

Inside is a tea party lover's dream: think florals, fine china and a hat bar for your elegant photos! The staff is super helpful and kind offering suggestions for the mammoth selection of teas they offer. My friend and I ordered an afternoon tea set that came with scones, sandwiches, desserts. And for $54 + sharing fee, it was good! The scones were hot and tender, there was a variety of nibbles my friend and I enjoyed, such as the chicken salad sandwich, the cream puff and a variety of fruit to keep it light. I'll be honest, I feel like there are other tea rooms that offer a greater and larger selection for the same price. So if you're looking around Long Island, there are better options out there. But, if you're locally in the area, I would give them a chance!
