    Generous and tasty smoothie/acai bowls at South Block! Wasn't too busy in here - ordered at a kiosk and they started making the bowls immediately. A plus is that some "extras" like honey, chia seeds, etc. are free but you have to scroll to the bottom of the order page to add them. Friendly but quiet staff.

    This was a nice addition to a hectic day! Between appointments in Arlington, I needed a place to hectically get some work done and get something to eat. I've passed South Block a few times (didn't realize it was a chain) and was happy to finally have a chance to be tempted inside. The menu is easy to read and there are great options for fruit and smoothie lovers. Wanting something with greenery, I went with the aptly named Green Bowl. It was very refreshing and very gingery! I love that bright spice root! The granola was crunchy and added great texture to the smoothie bowl mixed with bites of firm blueberries, ultra red strawberry slices, and banana. I never attempted to connect to WiFi, but I did find a corner table and had a nourishing bite while I hovered over my laptop and phone.

    I can't express how much I love this place. Last week, I was in the area on a trip and decided to stop here for breakfast... best decision I ever made. I can't stop thinking about it and I've been thinking about driving back up there just to get the peanut butter cup bowl again! It's fresh, filling, and incredibly delicious! We ordered online and picked up and the service was quick and easy. The place was very clean as well! I will be returning as soon as I possibly can.

    Avocado Toast

    South Block was really hyped up to be by a friend and honestly I am not impressed at all. The reason might be for what I ordered but that said out of the two items in the pictures the avocado toast was really good but the mango bowl was okayish and had this overpowering flavor of something i was unable to point out. Overall - good service but not great items to make this stand out at all.

    This is a great location! The staff works fast to get orders done and they are all so friendly! The smoothie bowls are delicious! I got the warrior bowl and I felt they were generous with the toppings which was nice.

    The Nutella Bowl!!

    I drive 20 minutes to this South Block at least once a week because of how much joy it brings me. I get the same thing every time because I believe I have perfected my order, however, everything I've tried here has been delicious. I get the Nutella Bowl but add bananas. It's beautiful. If you've never had an acai or smoothie bowl, take your time to read through the ingredients to make sure you order one that you like! This location has the most accesible parking compared to the others which is why I chose this specific South Block originally. I always mobile order and have never had an issue, the employees are always super fun and kind.

    Mermaid Bowl

    I was in the office and decided to order a smoothie bowl to start my day. With a few friends, we placed an online order. I got the Mermaid Bowl. The bowl was a beautiful blue color and I couldn't stop looking at it. The picture made me so curious about the bowl so i decided to order it and try it. The description says: Pineapple Juice | Bananas | Mangos | Blue Majik | Topped With Granola | Blueberry | Strawberry | Coconut. It was super good! I would definitely order this again. I was very impressed that when i got to the store, our order was already completed and waiting for us in the fridge. It was nice to run in and out quickly. Also, I wanted to add chia seeds and they had a squirt bottle of chia seeds on the side and i was able to add as much as i wanted. Definitely a good experience and I'd like to order from here again.

    Friendly staff and amazing acai bowls! The bowls are so refreshing and the fruit tasted fresh. They were also super considerate of my allergy and washed the blender thoroughly for me. I would definitely go back!

    I was excited to get an email saying that there was a South Block opening up a few blocks from work today so I figured I had to get breakfast. It's located right next to Bash (the boxing gym) on Wilson. You can't miss it with the green logo out front. Usually when a place first opens you expect some mishaps but didn't come across that today. The whole team was super friendly and luckily there was no line so I was checked out very quick. The PB&J bowl I got was on point as it always is and I definitely plan on coming back for breakfast.

    I ordered the pink Radiance skincare smoothie, it was delicious and thick. It's got the classic strawberry and banana mix to it but the dates and maple syrup definitely sweetened it up not in an overwhelming way. There were a lot of dates chucks in the smoothie, not sure if it was intentional. It add some texture to the smoothie but they also kept on getting stuck in the straw.

My coworkers and I have enjoyed visiting this location and it's our favorite thing to do on a slow Friday in the office. The only setback is that sometimes it seems they're a bit understaffed and the wait time can be pretty long. Outside of that, it's a great location and it has seating inside and outside as well for the warmer days!

Oftentimes, I don't get enough "crunch" in my acai bowls, so I was very pleased and satisfied with the crunchy texture of this bowl. The granola is homemade and has some chopped nuts (which I believe are almonds), and they added a really nice nutty/savory flavor to the bowl, making it feel more filling. Half (chicken) sandwich and half (mushroom) soup is a good deal. Nothing particularly mind-blowing about these foods, but the soup was hot, and the sandwich warm and satiating. The soup was a bit thin and could be thicker, but the flavors, slightly peppery and salty, were satisfying enough. Service was good and quick. There is a cute patio in the back of the cafe, with plenty of tables and chairs.

The smoothie was great too, with its nice blend of coffee, banana, chocolate and almond milk. This place is a must visit!

Picture this, a cozy setting, the aroma of fresh coffee in the air, and the perfect cup in hand. Can you say latte? Our Cinnamon Almond Lattes were nothing short of perfection, rich, creamy, and topped with a heart shape to celebrate Valentine's Day. They were truly a work of art, especially when paired with a delightful chocolate cookie that melted in your mouth, adding to the overall experience. Our server, who managed the room with grace and expertise, was an absolute gem. He guided us toward the best choices, enhancing our meal with his recommendations. When our food arrived, it was a feast for the eyes. The pancakes were served in individual cast iron pans, adding a rustic charm to the presentation. The eggs and bacon were flawlessly cooked and utterly delicious. The ambiance played a significant role in our experience too; with glass walls on three sides, the café felt open and airy, seamlessly connected to the library next door. Our table was perfectly situated to enjoy our lattes, but when breakfast arrived, it felt a bit cramped. With all those delightful dishes spread out, more space would have made the experience even better. Nonetheless, we managed to savor every bite.

Now, I've ordered out tons of times but this was my first time sitting down to enjoy a meal. Well, sure glad that I did because service was beautiful. What a friendly staff! Drinks: this place knows how to do lattes right and the YSE Cinnamon Almond Latte was evident of that. Picture giving a huge hug to a loved one, that's the feeling that you get from every sip. This drink was nothing short of amazing and surprisingly, it wasn't too sweet. Then, to top things off they added a cute chocolate biscuit on the side to warm up your appetite. Highly recommend! After our meal, I wanted to try their Matcha Spritz because the warm weather outdoors made me crave a summer themed drink. This drink was it! I can definitely see myself drinking a few of these unapologetically. Food: My boyfriend and I ordered a few items. I ordered the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes and he ordered the Blueberry Pancakes. And to complete the meal, we ordered a side of scrambled eggs and bacon. Lemon Ricotta Pancakes: the flavors on these pancakes were mind blowing but even more special was the warm lemon custard on top and the creamy ricotta to follow. Everything about this dish screamed decadent! And how cute was it to have pieces of strawberry, blueberries, and edible flowers added on top. It brought even more life to a fulfilling dish. The same could also be said about my boyfriend's blueberry pancakes, which he would describe as amazing. But wait, there is more....the scrambled eggs were buttery smooth and scrambled soft. Ah! Heaven on a plate. Their bacon was also perfectly prepared, leaving no room to give this place less than 5 stars. Truly enjoyed dining here and would recommend it to my breakfast lovers. They also serve lunch and fun cocktails..what are you waiting for? Stop on by!
