Walked past and decided I wanted a smoothie. It's been a while since I had anything from Deep Purple. I walked in, it's a smaller store. But it was hey clean and try. Although it's a small space, it has character. The service is good, I was able to get help with which smoothie I wanted to order. Once I got my smoothie it was l pretty. FYI: the smoothies come in one size. I got the deep purple and it was pretty good. read more

Thought this place would have great smoothies / açaí but it was all vegan and bland tasting.

Pretty good açaí, we got a 16 oz for three people as a light snack. Added banana, strawberry, honey, granola, and peanut butter. Price was $14.79 in all, not too bad. The AC was also either not working or wasnt strong enough so it was a bit hot inside, and it was the first day of chicagos heat wave. read more

Deep Purpl is dog friendly! Hooray! They basically offer smoothies or bowls- all served in cups. You decide to eat with a spoon or straw. Disclaimer: this is one of those businesses where everyone is ordering off Grubhub or door dash so even if you're the only customer in the shop, there will be a wait because they're so busy making Delivery/To Go orders! read more

After a music festival I need some sort of vitamins before I starve. Me and my SO found Deep Purpl on the corner and decided to try it since we both wanted something fresh. I ordered the açaí bowl, and the man at the register convinced me to get their reusable cup for the deal they had going on at that time. My SO got the mushroom empanada and the garlic sauce. Deliciously savory and warm, fresh meaty mushrooms. The açaí bowl was sweet, cold, refreshing and all the toppings are free with the price of the bowl so you can really load it up here. Would totally recommend if you need a pick me up! read more

I had a great experience - and a great açaí bowl - at this Deep Purpl location. I've been to the Lincoln Park location, and this one is cleaner and gave me a much better bowl. I actually questioned whether the other one was the same chain because this one was so much nicer. First, big shoutout to the staff member working here around 5 pm on Tuesday 9/20. She was preparing a couple bowls when I arrived but still greeted me and apologized that there would be a little wait while she finished. Nonetheless, she still engaged me to ask if I'd been there before, noting the steps and the toppings, etc. In other words, giving the great, friendly customer service you hope for and often don't get anymore. She took my order of a 12 oz bowl with strawberries, blueberries, almond butter, and cacao nibs and proceeded to build me a beautiful bowl with just the right amount of each. It was delicious and constructed with care so it actually looked pretty, too. It was a little pricey, but I thought the quality of the ingredients was excellent (especially the berries. None of them were shriveled, bruised, etc). I'm definitely coming back here, and I hope she is working when I do because I know I'll have a great experience and delicious bowl. If she's not the manager, I hope whoever is sees this and recognizes what a great job she does! read more

Deep Purpl - Beautiful 12 oz açaí bowl to go, with almond butter, strawberries, blueberries, and cacao nibs. Yum! - Acai Bowls Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Açaí bowls are the main thing to get here. Deep Purpl has a few stores around town, so you can get to the most convenient location. It happens to have one in Wicker Park close to the Blue Line station. Basically it's the same menu at each. They also have juices, and there's salads among some of of the other food items. Getting açaí bowls is a healthier alternative to ice cream. It's pretty expensive at a lot of these shops, but here it's not quite as much for this creamy product. They have about the lowest price you can get on an açaí bowl, with a catch though. It's $6.99 for a small bowl. This is the small bowl at this low price. Believe it. This thing is ridiculously tiny. A very good thing about it though is unlimited mix ins and toppings, so you can load it up and not be charged any more for it. They have almond butter, fruit slices, and granola among other things. Add ins are free. It means you can put in as much as you want so load it up. There's no charge for weight. read more

I freaking love açaí bowls but I AM DONE COMING HERE. I drove 40 minutes for this place just to find out it's cashless. How inconvenient. I am so disappointed. I immediately walked out the door. Also, the cashier watched us excited and taking our time looking at the menu, talking out loud about what we were deciding to order, with cash in our hand just for her to tell us no cash after we finish ordering. So so so disappointed. read more

Great Acai place. They offer smoothies, acai bowls with unlimited toppings, and plant-based empanadas with inspiration from different regions worldwide. Was not disappointed with the acai they had. The acai is a bit more icy or watery rather than creamy but it's delicious. read more

Eh, I wasn't hugely impressed. I don't like getting a smoothie bowls in a cup, thanks. The place is super clean, but that also gives it a sterile vibe as opposed to a cozy one. Service was fine, but it's the Midwest so people can't handle questions or others with personality. I also don't like my açaí bowl toppings in the middle. I want to dive into the good stuff on top! read more

This was the longest I've waited for a small açaí cup. Over 30min later and I was still watching the 2 young adults making the orders not give a single crap about the 10 people waiting, and all the while they would stop mid preparation and talk, hug, and walk into the back for another few minutes. Everyone waiting looked miserable. Bowl is good, but also not that hard to mess up. Bathroom sink was covered in long hair and no soap. Place always REEKS of pine sol :/ read more

Deep Purpl... more like CRACK. This is truly and unequivocally the BEST acai we have had in Chicago. Unlimited toppings- 20 oz doesn't do it for us, give us 40! S drove 1 hour to get Deep Purpl after a full 12 hour day of work. If that doesn't sell it to you, you don't appreciate perfection. This will fulfill a quick lunch break, a post workout refuel, or a dessert. S highly recommends the peanut butter. Z recommends almond butter and honey. The unlimited toppings really takes DP to the next level, keeping the price at a reasonable range. If you appreciate the sweeter things in life, you will make the effort to get to DP. Ambience: 5/10 (grab n go, lowkey musty) Service: 5/10 (Server told customers to leave bc it was too busy) Food: 11/10 Wow factor: Unlimited toppings read more

Want something quick, healthy-ish and refreshing? This is a great spot while you're wandering Wicker Park. it's a sort of build your own açaí bowl bar. A decent amount of the normal toppings, and they serve it up like the old school frozen yogurt style. I added toasted coconut, granola, cacao nibs, and natural pb to my treat. Due to the pandemic, not much in the way of seating, so I had to take a photo and run. Very tasty, very happy, nice staff! read more

Yummy açaí bowls! There's a wide selection of toppings, and the best part is that you get unlimited number of choices with your order. It's a bit pricy ($9 for 12oz), but pretty typical for açaí bowls in general. I really liked the almond butter and fresh fruit! read more

Very cute inside with a few dining tables. Please expand to other states like Indiana so I don't have to drive all the way to Chicago for my favorite breakfast read more

If you're looking for a refreshing smoothie or cold treat, i would check out this place! their food is all organic, and they have a lot of variety. you're offered several different ounce amounts of your choice of smoothie or açaí bowl. they also have several topping options. i ordered an açaí bowl with strawberries, banana, almond butter, protein powder, and cacao nibs. it was very well made and aesthetically pleasing. the fruit was also fresh. one note would be that they don't mix the protein powder in the smoothie, though i didn't mind it too much. read more

The food and service were great! You can customize your bowl and they serve it layered. So yummy.

I'm sad I didn't discover this place until now! I stopped by for dessert one day after dinner because we were craving something sweet, but not too heavy and "healthier". Although at first glance, it looks pricey, I think it is 100% worth it and I would get this as a light lunch next time. They offer smoothies and acaii bowls, and you can choose between 4 different sizes. The best part is they offer unlimited toppings! They have a wide variety from fruits, to health foods (chia seeds, goji berries, etc.), nut butters, granola, etc. I will definitely be back next time to try other toppings. The service was great as well, the one young lady working there was super helpful once she learned it was our first time at the store. read more

Deep Purpl - A bunch of stuff lol in my açaí bowl - Acai Bowls Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

Came this morning for a quick açaí bowl. Omg it was amazing the service was amazing as well. This will be my regular morning spot.

I give this review two stars only because I love the quality of Deep Purpl. After today though I don't think I will be returning. The lady working behind the counter today had no mask on and touching her face while prepping food!! It wouldn't be a big deal but we are kinda in a pandemic with a very contagious strain going around. You think for the price you pay for a 16oz acai bowl you would get the service you pay for too. Makes me wonder what else they are doing while prepping our food? No mask? Sneezing? Makes me nauseous thinking about it. Shame! read more

It's either a hit or miss with delivery/pickup but I've noticed it's based on the employee working at that time. Sometimes I have an açaí full to the top sometimes it's less product. However the taste and texture is great, toppings are not charged extra. You can pick as many toppings as you like. I have seen several employees at this location and some are nice and sweet others are horrible with their customer service. Worth the price and definitely a great refreshing treat. read more

I come to deep purpl often and today the customer service was terrible. A Hispanic man was so rude and rushed through my bowl. I informed him the many times of me coming there I never received a bowl so short on ingredients & my açaí was watered down almost like I can sip it through a straw. I requested if he could possible remake it or a refund. He got very irritate telling me he wasn't going to remake nor give me a refund in a aggressive tone. I was so confused of the angered responses seeing as though I asked nicely & wasn't rude to him during service. I then asked to speak to a manager which he proceeded to tell me he is the manager then I said well someone over him and he tells me their in Brazil. It led to me leaving unhappy, I don't appreciate it at all getting treated as such from a place I love and enjoy getting. read more

I've been looking for a new acai spot since my previous favorite closed. Really liked this bowl and felt like it was a good value for what I paid. They don't charge you for every little topping which I really appreciated. I think I paid around $11-$12 for what I got and would gladly pay that again for this. Definitely recommend! read more

Let me preface with, I've never felt it was worth it to leave a review. In short, good bowl, bad customer service/business. Last time I placed a pick up order. Arrived and was told I had to wait in line, as there's no easy pick up spot. There's only 1 person ever working so to get through the 5 people's orders in front of me, it took 20 minutes. I get up there and tell her my order. She informs me that she has to prioritize in person orders. This even included making people's orders that were in line AFTER me. Finally, I said this was ridiculous and she made my bowl. 40 minutes later, I walked out with my pick up order. I decide to give them another go this morning. Order online--at 8am there won't be a line. I get there to pick up my order and they're still closed. Girl walks in at 8:10 and tells me it'll be 30 minutes before the machine is ready. I'm sorry but a good açaí bowl doesn't outweigh bad customer service. read more

Delicious açaí bowls!! I just wish they had more selections for fruit. They are really fantastic overall!

I've been wanting to get my hands on an acai bowl for a while and I was happy to run into this place. I got two 8 oz bowls and it was $15+ which I thought was a bit expensive, but I don't mind if I am getting quality ingredients. The acai bowl was great, but upon using the bathroom I was disgusted. It looked like a dirty bathroom after a sold out concert. When establishments have dirty bathrooms, it makes me question their cleanliness in general. read more
