Yummy açaí that comes with unlimited toppings. The size is definitely much smaller than expected, and they were a little skimpy on the fruit. I ordered to-go and the açaí had already melted so it was more of a smoothie bowl than an acai bowl. All the ingredients were fresh and high quality though. Pick up was convenient and smooth. There was just one person working at the time I stopped by around lunch time. This is a nice acai option for the Evanston area. But my favorite acai option is Bonita Bowl in Park Ridge. They have different base options and their sizes are much larger. Plus they stuff the top with lots of fruit. read more

I'd love to give this more than one star but to be honest, I walked in trying to get an açaí bowl. The menu does not have a description of what goes into the bowl so I asked and the gentleman behind the bar but he could only tell me "layers" and açaí. Like... there is a picture here what is in this picture? "layers" Was all he could tell me. I will say there was a language barrier so that contributed to my inability to make sure I got what I wanted. My suggestion would be go to another smoothie bar that has better descriptions on their menu. This one was quite confusing on all levels. read more

This was my first time here and the shop was clean. I did wait a few minutes since the employee was busy on their phone and did not realize I walked in. No problem though, I did a 16oz açaí bowl with added protein. It ended up being close to or over $20 before tip and personally wasn't worth it. It was good but definitely didn't feel like I got a $20 treat. I did like they had many toppings to choose from! read more

It's a super good Açaí bowl here at Deep Purple and açaí is also a super food. I try to choose everything that I can on the menu but they can only cram so many ingredients into the large cup. Açaí is a dark purplish berry that's supposedly berry, berry good for you. I like to order in when I'm not too far so that it'll be ready when I get there. Everything is really fresh and I do enjoy the organic peanut butter layer, so much better than Jiffy. The visual presentation is real appealing - there's a colorful healthy topping of fruit and you can see all of the layers as you dig deeper, they give you a long spoon by the way. If I bring mine home, I usually supplement it with even more bananas, blueberries and strawberries. So that way, I can spread this meal out over two days. These are really filling and I usually skip lunch after eating about 75 percent of the cup. Oh, they're right by Edzo's so you could kill two birds with one stone and pick up a Cheeseburger while you're at it. read more

This is a cute little açaí shop that offers unlimited toppings. They have 4 different sizes and a good selection of toppings. The only base that they offered is açaí but is really good. I added a bunch of fruit, coconut, chia, granola, almond butter, cacao, and honey! read more

I love this place! I love how you can choose a variety of toppings for your açaí bowl. Every time I come here the people working are always super friendly and helpful. The granola and pb are yummy additions. The granola has a nice crunch and the creamy pb helps balance out the fruits and açaí. I ordered the 12oz but sometimes I feel like I should order the 16oz so I can eat half now and the rest later lol. The place is next to potbelly and aloha eats. Parking can be hard depending on the time and day. If you're looking for something healthy and delicious stop in there! read more

Deep Purpl - 12oz açaí bowl and you can choose a variety of toppings such as Cacau nibs, chia seeds, organic pb etc! - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Evanston, Illinois

I've ordered from them for over 2 years, this was the first time in a long time that I got the açaí bowl. I was happy to see more items added to their menu like empanadas. How ever, I am very upset once I got my order that it was a very small empanada and it was over cooked. Empanada was hard and was not good. My favorite açaí bowl was also disappointing. Not only did they go down in size but it was not as good as I remembered. Not pleased and I feel like I wasted my money. read more

Probably the worst acai bowl I've probably ever had. Not worth the price paid and the fruit seemed frozen rather than fresh, the acai was not smooth but chunky. The toppings you choose are supposed to be layered nicely and mine was very much not this. Hate to give poor ratings, but this was not good. The acai tasted just wrong in general - nearly medicinal. I paid for extra strawberries and think mine had one single strawberry sliced on top. read more

Tried Deep Purpl for the first time tonight. Yea! Love the flavor of the Deep Purpl smoothie. Very refreshing and filling. Great size for the price! Sipped on the 20oz one and it lasted a long time. Complex flavor and texture profile...açaí, blueberry and chia. Bought a Deep Yellow for someone else, and they really enjoyed it. Allow a little time once you order. Appreciated the helpfulness of the friendly staff. read more

Love Deep Purpl, but the newer employee skimps on the almond butter and the fruit topping - she has done it more than once even politely asking (and paying) for more. Super frustrating. read more

Very sweet and cool dessert. Tasted good, and the toppings added good texture. Pretty standard for an acai bowl, perhaps a bit on the sweeter side. Rather pricey, and probably would not get it again just because of the price. read more

Deep Purpl - two glasses of chocolate drink - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Evanston, Illinois

I went in while in the area. I've been to some smoothie/açaí places in SoCal so maybe it's an unfair comparison. I got a smoothie that was eh and $$ for what it was. I got the green one and the mint was off putting. I didn't finish it. The place was empty. The guy working was super nice. I could've made a better smoothie at home though. read more

I really love the the Deep Purpl franchise and go to locations across the city. On the the last three occasions, the employee stated they were not serving smoothies that day. I used to work in the service industry so I understand things run out. Still, this has only happened with the one employee. All the other times I have been in, I have been able to order a smoothie with zero issue. This honestly feels like an employee just doesn't want to do her job. Didn't offer an apology. As soon as I walked in she said "no smoothies today" without looking up her phone. Again, I'm sympathetic to service workers but I'm not going to spend on a place that won't value me. Avoid at all costs. read more

I appreciate a good açaí bowl. This place is great! The fruit was fresh, the guy was new and still super friendly. Also really liked the variety of options I could add to my cup. Nice seating area inside and outside the place. read more

Downtown Evanston's newest addition! Honestly such a treat. I got the 12oz Acai Bowl. It came with unlimited toppings for the same price (just under $10), which is a major perk. I piled mine high with assorted fruits and it came out looking so pretty! The 12oz cup was filling enough for breakfast. I would not recommend getting a smaller size if you are actually hungry. read more

Wow, really bad. I ordered a large for lunch and had about 1 strawberry and a third of a banana. There was sprinklings of coconut and granola. Basically just big cup of only acai for $17.00. I think people who think this place is good have just not had one that's made properly. I won't go back. read more

Ahh! Remember this used to be Verizon? This is their fifth location in the state and first one in the suburbs. This is bigger than the Wicker Park and Lincoln Park locations. Staff and service was good. read more

Worst customer service ever!! Manager argued with 3 customers while I was waiting to order. He was not accommodating at all. I left in the middle of ordering because he was SO RUDE to this poor young boy who had an online order and refused to give him what he ordered. read more

10/10 best acai bowls around. The employee that works there is fabulous, he obviously takes pride in what he does. Good for late night snack. read more

I came here a few times and with the few times I came, their customer service is not the best. I came in last month and order an açaí bowl. Note that I was the only person in store while I ordered and after I finished ordering, about 3-4 people came in just looking at the menu. While waiting for about 5 mins I noticed the guy behind the counter kept messing with the machine. It looked like it wasnt working properly and I knew I had to wait for a bit which was fine as I was not in a hurry. 10 mins passed and there was a good amount of people waiting for their mobile orders. the guy then proceeded to let me know and a few other people that ordered after me, that their machine was not freezing the liquid fast enough and asked if we wanted a smoothie instead . Of course I said sure and told him which one I wanted .. it took a total of 30 mins to get my smoothie.. I was a bit annoyed that everyone got their order/smoothie before me when I was the first one to place an order. I was the last one to leave the store with my smoothie. The second time, I placed my order on the app and usually I give a good amount of time when placing the order and picking it up. I believe it was 15-20 mins after placing, I went inside and expected the order to be already made and for me to just pick up and go. Doesn't seem like it cause she started to make it once I told her I was here for a pick up. I guess it's a good thing so it doesn't melt but I did mobile order for convenience wise and didn't want to wait that long. Overall this place is good. Hope to receive better service next time. read more

I got the açaí bowl. It was AMAZING! The purée's texture was creamy but still refreshing. The taste was amazing. You get to choose different toppings, and all the toppings were fresh and delicious. I got a 12 oz for $10 (not necessarily cheap), but it was worth it! The worker was very kind and welcoming. The setting is also super cute to sit and chat in. read more

Was really looking forward to trying their açaí since it's pretty popular, but found that the base didn't taste like fresh fruit (more like a candy faux-fruit flavor). Not sure what was so off putting about it but it wasn't refreshing and satisfying for me :/ read more

Plastic cups I would order every day if it wasn't for the plastic guilt. I wish they would switch cups out with a more sustainable option. I feel like it's the elephant in the store that boasts organic ingredients/health/wellness. We I could switch out my daily coffee with this amazing smoothie bowl... read more

their smoothies and bowls are amazing but it literally takes 15+ minutes to get anything there even if you order through the app you will be waiting more than 15 minutes. terrible service but great smoothies. read more
