Walking up to this open air cafe feel with a deck like it should be on Hawaii.... And so happens that the "bowl" I had was Better than the bowl I had in Hawaii! The BRO was so dang good, I got no granola in case of cross contamination of gluten and asked for cacao nibs instead and WOW. Immediately YES. The base was amazing and the tablespoon of peanut butter topped it off making everything come together so so nicely. I'll be back before I leave Waco for the few days I'm here visiting! It was a tiny wait yes but these girls were moving! It was very busy and I didn't feel like it was too long at all. Also the price is on point and I feel a good value and that I wasn't ripped off. I already want tomorrow to come. read more

I visit Waco a few times a year and visit my fam. We are huge foodies so we love to explore places around town. They took me to Mamaka and it was definitely a good spot for a snack! I have the Mamaka Bowl. I think it was açaí with blueberry and honey and bananas and granola. The service was fast and the presentation was perfect. It was kind of a warm day so it hits the spot. There seating inside and out of the store. The windows are huge and some of the walls are open. It's a nice vibe for a perfect refreshing treat. I'm definitely coming back! Worth it! read more

Oh My Gosh! These smoothie bowls are the most delicious! Today we got the Christmas smoothie bowl and it was extra delicious. The servers are very friendly here. All the employees are so kind and helpful and we never have too long of a wait. They have a great app that you can order ahead. The atmosphere is fun because they have some outdoor swings to sit on in a big outdoor patio and the indoors is all open. It's really a fun place to go have a treat. It's a great tasting treat! read more

Fresh and delicious, had to wait for awhile but other then that I finished my whole bowl!

Stopped by here for a refreshing afternoon treat at the recommendation of a friend who is a Waco local. This is a cute place with ample seating and it appeared to be a favorite among locals as everyone was stopping by when they got out of school and everything. Having never been to a smoothie bowl please before, I asked for an explanation of the menu and London was super sweet and very helpful and took time to explain everything and to point out her favorites on the menu. I ended up getting the Maui Sunrise bowl and my husband got the Maui Sunrise smoothie. It was a refreshing, tart combination of fruit that wasn't overly sweet and was the perfect afternoon pick-me-up. The bowl was great because the sweetened of the granola and the fresh fruit perfectly balanced the tartness of the smoothie. We will try to stop by next time we are in town. read more

I just sat at this place for 44 minutes waiting on an order that was placed online with a specified pick up time. I had another commitment and could not wait any longer. I asked for a refund and was told to write my information down and to "give my phone number if there were any issues." What issues? For the items I paid for and you failed to give me. Several other people were complaining about the excessive wait times. Go somewhere else. I've had this spot before and it isn't worth that kind of wait if they can't have efficient systems. Waste of time, waste of money. read more

The Ohana bowl was delicious and l workers were also super friendly! The place was also very clean. The iced coffee was great and had the perfect amount of ice. Cold but not too much ice. read more

I must first say. I'm in the business. So watching the staff prepare the bowls and smoothies absolutely lost me, they all were filthy, their aprons, how they cut the fruit. They are all wearing gloves but touching every dirty surface, possible. No glove changing, wiping their hand on their aprons. Just not sanitary. I had to leave the counter area because I was really disgusted by the what I was seeing. I waited outside for my bowl. The bowl flavor wasn't bad. However I won't return, just based on the way they prepare the food. read more

Mamaka Bowls has always been a classic go-to spot for me and my classmates! The açaí is flavorful, the granola is made in-house and is fresh and crunchy, and the combinations of bowls they created are skillfully crafted. It has an aesthetic beachy vibe which makes it such a great place to sit outside and catch up with a friend instead of getting coffee. I ordered the Ohana (in the middle of the photo) and was more than satisfied with the tasty fruity fashion (my favorite). The staff is kind, you can tweak the order to get what you want, and they are fast and efficient! My only problem is that it is very expensive when getting a regular-sized bowl (~$11) so it makes it hard to justify going often, but when I do it is worth it. read more

This was one of my favorite spots for a healthy treat during college -- and I'm so glad to see it's still doing well! The location is great! There's plenty of free parking nearby, and lots of patio space to spread out and chow down. If the weather is nice, you can take your bowl or smoothie across the street and enjoy it right by the Brazos River. I've had several delicious items from their menu, but during my last visit, I had to indulge in their Pumpkin Bowl. This was a fun fall treat -- topped with cacao, coconut, banana, and cinnamon. My only critique is that the smoothie itself could have been even more pumpkin-y! It was a nice subtle flavor - but I would have loved a more intense taste. If I ordered this bowl again, I would've also added some peanut butter on top, for a little extra crunch. You can't go wrong with any other item on their menu - my favorites from my college days were "The Babe" and "The Mac." Whether you live in Waco, or you're in town visiting, definitely don't miss out on Mamaka! read more

Driving from Austin to Dallas we stopped here for a quick lunch, and so happy we did! Honestly will seriously consider this place during every trip through Waco. Forgot exactly which we got but it included almond milk and peanut butter.. tempted to recreate it at home. Super tasty bowls that are also healthy, what's there to complain about?? read more

Loved this place! I ordered "The Ohana" bowl, and my husband got "The Bro" smoothie. Both were very tasty and filling. I miss the swings they'd had outside a few years ago when we'd stopped in, but the tables are still nice. The beachy vibe is what Waco needs! We will be back. read more

Surfer vibes, aesthetically pleasing views, super friendly service, trendy merch and good acai bowls found here! I've been visiting a handful of times for their bowls. I enjoy the 'Mamaka' with no bananas. The atmosphere will be very loud at busier times, so feel free to eat in the car or take a stroll if that's a concern. Their granola is a bit saltier than I'd like, but the sweetness of the bowl helps. I can't find any nutritional info or statements on their website, so i'm not if the sweetness is from natural sugars, or refined / artificial sugars. Their fruit toppings are always delicious and picked with quality. Never seen a moldy fruit. They have restrooms for customers and a couple neat swings too. I recommend a visit! read more

Tried this place out for a healthy late breakfast on the way to Dallas and it was a great stop. Only I planned on getting anything, but after everyone saw what the place had to offer 4 of us ended up eating here. The place was nicely decorated with open space and indoor / outdoor seating. The staff here was kind and very helpful in deciding. I went with the Expresso Yourself bowl in a regular size. Although it didn't fill as much as a meal would it did hit the sweet spot that I had craving. For a regular size at $10 the price was pretty unbeatable as well and the consistency was great. What really topped off the experience was that even when I went up after to ask for some protein, which I didn't originally, one of the workers by the name Sloan added some in for free. Not necessarily a huge deal, but customer service is super important and I felt that the people here were great! read more

This place was super crowded, which gave the allusion that the food was good. I waited 20+ minutes for my açaí bowl, only to be disappointed. My bowl did not have good flavor and they left out a few of the toppings. The music was too loud, I didn't feel like the inside was super clean and the girls working behind the counter were chatting with their friends and messing around. Disappointing. read more

Mamaka Bowls - The Pipeline Bowl - the best! This is with peanut butter but I also get it with almond butter - Acai Bowls Near Me - Waco, Texas

Mamaka Bowls is so cute! From the outdoor patio with rustic swings to the aesthetic blue photo walls and garage-like place. It's usually pretty busy so service is quite slow, but this place is women owned and operated which is awesome. They offer two size bowls and I think the smaller one is a perfect serving size for one person, while the larger one could feed two people. Their smoothie consistency is so creamy and the fruit is freshly piled on top in a pretty design. The homemade granola is the best part about the bowl. It's to die for and truly completes the flavor experience. My go to bowl is the Mamaka bowl- açaí, strawberry, banana, mango, blueberry, almond milk or orange juice (if you desire a breakfast or a lunch açaí bowl) and it's topped with sliced strawberries and bananas, blueberries, and of course their delicious granola. read more

First off, how cute is this place. Gives off a very surf turf vibe and for being in the middle of Texas it's just what they needed. Located right by Baylor university in the heart of Waco, we decided to stop here on our way to Austin. Can't say enough great things about Mamaka Bowls. The service, ambiance, bowls were all amazing. The girls working there were so delightful and cheerful, which truly added to our experience. The bowls itself were very refreshing for a hot day and kept me pretty full for quite some time. The coffee is infused with a subtle coconut flavor and tasted so amazing. Can't go wrong with anything here. read more

Delicious healthy and refreshing. Sad they're not open for a Mother's Day treat. It's my new find and definitely recommend it!

I have been waiting for this place to open in Waco for many months, and I finally got the chance to visit this weekend. Let me say - it did not disappoint at all! I ordered the Mamaka bowl, and it was truly one of the sweetest, most flavorful açaí bowls that I've ever had! They were generous with the toppings, and the granola tasted great. Nothing beats healthy, fresh food that tastes like dessert! I seriously want to drive back to Waco from Dallas just to get another bowl right now. In addition to the bowls tasting incredible, the entire environment is so friendly and fun! The bowls came out fast, but we were in no rush to leave with the indoor/outdoor seating and upbeat vibe. What a great addition to downtown Waco! I will be back soon! read more
