Great new chain with quality raw food and smoothies. Some of them can be high in calories so be careful about eating here often, but much better tasting, more filling, and much healthier than other fast food. The bowls are better than the smoothies. They are all big and filling and range from around 400 to 1,000 calories, so choose wisely (the chia pudding bowls really tip the scales at 700-950 calories). The Acai bowls are really sweet. If you want a huge, sweet, fruity meal, the Pura Vida bowl is a strong choice at 460 calories. Don't be afraid of the green bowls. They are probably the most balanced in terms of calories, flavor, and nutrition and don't worry -- it doesn't taste like vegetables. The Pacific, Hemp, Ocean Ave, and Lola bowls are awesome choices, all under 500 calories with 11-12g fiber and 8-10g protein. read more

I used to come here frequently but their açaí is inconsistent. Lately it's been so icy and just not good. The açaí bowl competitor in the area is much smoother and never chunks of ice. read more

Everything I've ever tasted was fresh and very refreshing. The staff is friendly and work affectionately. read more

Great service from the two ladies working the morning shift. The menu on the wall was long and the seasonal recommendations were appreciated. I can recommend the seasonal cold pressed coffee, both Special Bowls, and the seasonal bowl. It was easy to customize our meals. Our only complaint was that everything on the menu was cold, and we needed something warm. Also the seating was kind of Spartan. read more

I enjoy dining here and appreciate the ability to substitute and customize the bowls. I cannot eat bananas and there are plenty of options.

Always great fruit creations. I have my favorite however, Nutella Bowl. All menu items are Fresh, sweet and filling. We were thrilled when this branch opened as we moved here from NJ 2 years ago where we visited their chains there regularly. We missed having these delicious healthier treats (as opposed to only fattening fast food chains), but now our wish came true. Thank you Playa Bowl for expanding to this area. It's a clean, friendly and a customer focused business. They are fast and accurate with orders. Never had a problem, aside from their recent acts of not following health safety standards to protect their customers from Covid. None of the staff was wearing a mask!!! With PA rates reaching 24,000+ a day, what are they thinking???!!!! Come on folks!! Wise up!!! read more

The Electric Mermaid Pitaya Bowl is so good! Polite staff made my bowl pretty quick too. Healthy & quick read more

First Time here and I must say the customer service was top notch. I got a power bowl and a cold brew. The açaí bowl was out of this world and the cold brew was excellent! The facility was clean well decorated and like I said the girls working were so excited to help. 10/10 would recommend! read more

This place is absolutely adorable. The bowls are fabulous. So much flavor, packed full, very fresh and tons of options. The employees go out of their way for the customers and are always upbeat and smiling. You can't walk out of here without a smile on your face! A must visit place in Carlisle if you ask me. Even the kids couldn't get enough! read more

I absolutely love this place, everytime I am in Carlisle i go here. I always get a coconut bowl with strawberries, nutella, and peanut butter. The bowls are definitely decently sized. They are also very filling. The service here is also great, they are always recommending different things for me to try and they never fail to help me if i ever question something. I definitely recommend trying!! read more

Very new place and only one other review and since my experience was different, I felt compelled to write a review as well. The atmosphere is pretty nice; clean, good music, and a generally younger clientele - a trendy, cool vibe if that makes sense... but for me, that's where the appeal ends. I had the #3 oatmeal bowl (chocolate protein, banana, and peanut butter) and the wife had the Pink Flamingo pitaya bowl (I don't even know what a pitaya is so continue with the review at your own discretion) which costs about $19.00, pretty steep in my opinion... and I hate that these places are asking for tips at checkout... tips for what? They aren't bringing it to your table, they aren't bussing your table, refilling drinks, etc? And to ask for a tip before they've done anything is a trend that should just not.... Back to the food - you can tell that they are using quality products and everything is well presented but the taste just didn't do it for me. Perhaps it was what I ordered so maybe just avoid the #3 oatmeal bowl. The wife's Pink Flamingo was definitely better than mine but still not what I would call great; see picture. Cool place but I probably won't be going again. read more

Horrible service. They gave someone my drink. No apology. Ridiculous wait and you won't even get what you ordered! Lotus bowl in Chambersburg is so much better and a small business not a chain! read more
