I'm always looking for a good smoothie bowl place in Albany and Bare was really good. I love all the options they have and the ability to customize it. Their fall menu looked fun as well. My friend really enjoyed their Caesar wrap and strawberry matcha too. Overall it's a bit pricey for a smoothie bowl place but it was yummy and they do have quality ingredients. It get be a bit of a wait when it gets busy but the workers are nice.

In searching for a healthy lunch option that has delivery options on Yelp, I came upon Bowled. I ordered one of their signature açai bowls. It came with an açai base, peanut butter, berries, granola, banana, and chia seeds. The ingredients were all fresh, it tasted delicious and was incredibly satisfying. It filled me up and got me through my workday. Their bowls deliver well so no worries there. My bowl arrived at my door perfect and ready to eat. Not sure what their in house experience is like but as for delivery--get to it!

When I started eating it I could taste the air freshener. Determined that it was the croutons. They tasted and smelled just like the odor I smelled in the restaurant. I decided to eat the rest of my bowl and just took out the croutons, but won't be going back. Yuk

In addition to a sheik modern garden decor, the drinks are delicious - well the drink I had was delicious. It is pricey, the cost of my 20oz beet juice drink cost as much as my 20oz drink and breakfast sandwich combined at the coffee house. That being said, you can get food at Thorn and Root for a similar cost. Also, that juice filled me for hours. So I viewed it as a meal replacement.

Loop is a smoothie and café spot that focuses on healthier options like smoothie bowls, avocado…read moretoast, coffee, and fresh drinks, with a bright and modern space filled with greenery and colorful presentation. We walked into a café where the relaxed atmosphere makes it a nice place to stop for breakfast or a quick break, the kind of space where the environment is just as much part of the experience as the food. The interior has a fresh, airy energy with plenty of natural light and seating that encourages lingering, though finding a spot can take some patience during busier hours. The smoothie bowls were the main highlight. The texture was thick and well blended, and the fruit combinations worked well together without feeling overly heavy. We tried a few options and found the bowls balanced, with the toppings adding texture and flavor without overwhelming the base. The avocado toast was also a solid option, especially with the toppings adding more flavor instead of making it feel too basic, and the bread held up well against the spread. The drinks are another reason to visit, with smoothies and matcha options fitting the overall concept, and the coffee menu gives a good alternative for anyone who wants something less fruit-focused. The café also has some creative drink choices, which makes it feel more like a full café experience rather than just a smoothie shop. The biggest thing to keep in mind is the wait time. The food is made fresh, so orders can take longer than expected during busy periods, and allowing extra time is worth considering if you are visiting during peak hours. Service is friendly and the staff handle the flow efficiently, but the pace of the kitchen can slow down when the café fills up. Seating is also limited, so the experience works best when you are not in a hurry. Loop is a good option if you are looking for a café with healthier food choices and a nice atmosphere. The smoothie bowls and drinks are the main reason to visit, and the bright, welcoming space makes it easy to spend some time there. It is not the fastest stop, but the quality and overall experience make it worth checking out.
