After a grueling first day of sports practice, I asked my granddaughter where she would like to go…read morefor a cool and refreshing treat? Berries & Bowls was her number 1 choice. Service was great. We were waited on right away and the young lady explained different choices for smoothies. I decided to go with the Tropical Smoothie. My granddaughter ordered the Tropical Bowl. She was really excited that they have gluten free granola. We sat down and I loved the cute decor. There were really cute posters and warm woods. A fun fruit mural covers the front wall, as you walk in the door. My smoothie was fruity and delicious. It was so large, I didn't think I would finish it, but I did. My granddaughter loved her bowl and she even scraped the bottom of the bowl,for any leftover bits. That should tell you how good it was. I took off one star because prices are high. But, given the wholesome ingredients, great service, and gluten free options...I think this well worth it. As, one of the cute t-shirts says, " I really regret eating healthy today, said no one ever! " I agree.

I asked the security guard if I could speak to a manager. After waiting for 5 minutes, I asked my Cashier (William) if he could call down the manager again. She came down and said "you wanted to speak to me?" I asked her "why did you tell security to check my pockets?" She dismissed me timidly saying "Oh I didn't tell him to do that" I said "no, he told me that he was told by the manager to do searches, why was I asked to be searched?" She backed away and the security guard took over, breaching my personal space and trying to intimidate me. I asked him to get out of my face and he refused. I asked to speak to the manager and they refused. When I asked under what grounds they chose who is being searched, They refused to answer. I was told to exit and I refused until I could see evidence to justify me being banned, for not complying to a search. I was told no. The security guard continued to tell me to leave, and grabbed my Canada goose jacket and groceries, took them to the exit and put them on the wet, dirty ground. I am despondent. This is unacceptable.

I really love Playa Bowls--the flavors are great and it's usually my go-to. That said, more often…read morethan not, my bowl is made incorrectly, which has been frustrating. I often order granola on the side because I personally don't like granola, but my daughter does. On a recent order, it was put directly on the bowl anyway. I chose to still take it because I didn't want them to have to throw away and remake an entire bowl, and they kindly added extra granola on the side--but it still wasn't what I ordered. Unfortunately, my order was wrong again today. What's disappointing is that the order is wrong whether I order online or in person. I love the product, but consistency and attention to customizations really need improvement.

After parking at a garage in Pike & Rose, we stopped by South Block to quench my thirst. I have a South Block in my neighborhood and find it overpriced, but I really did need to go. STRAWBERRY MINI - 6.49 I didn't need a whole lot, so I went with the 12 oz. kid size smoothie. This contains guava juice, strawberry, and bananas, which is much less complex than the regular sized 16 oz. adult smoothies. Overall, pretty refreshing and enjoyable. It's not Orange Fanta, but it did the job. Spacious interior but not a whole lot of seating. Definitely more of a grab-and-go while walking around Pike & Rose.

I definitely had a couple of sips and did not finish it. To be clear, this just didn't work for me and my taste buds, and I'm sure other people absolutely love this! *Vietnamese coffee - this was great! No notes, as the kids say! *Vina coffee - the hazelnut made it a little too sweet for me (again, this is my taste buds), but I liked the salted cream a lot! *Eggspresso egg cream - absolutely great, would get this again! Overall, the Vietnamese coffee here is great, and they are very quick to get you what you ordered! Will definitely be back.

These bowls are low-cal but super satisfying, packed with wholesome ingredients that keep me full and energized without feeling heavy. What I love most is the perfect balance of flavor and nutrition. Whether it's their classic acai bowls loaded with fresh fruit, crunchy granola, and a drizzle of honey, or one of their creative seasonal specials, every bite tastes vibrant and refreshing. Plus, the texture combo of creamy, crunchy, and juicy is spot-on every time. The staff are always friendly and fast, making it easy to grab something on the go or chill for a bit. It's become my go-to healthy treat and a great way to cool down after being out in the heat. If you're looking for a guilt-free indulgence that actually fuels you, Berries and Bowl is the place to be. Highly recommend!

There are several different bowls that come in a couple of categories, or you can get smoothies or toasts. I usually do the acai bowl with chocolate in it, and it never disappoints.

They also have these tasty cheesy bread bites -- it's called pão de queijo. I enjoy those, and will most likely get some sooner than later. Roxa (pronounced ho-sha) Bowl is where a Venezuelan restaurant used to be (that I was sad to see go), but whenever I want a healthy snack, this place typically comes to mind.
