I was in the mood for a smoothie so I did a little yelp search close to where I was and this place popped up. I had no idea when I arrived that they would have such a huge selection of delicious items. I was almost overwhelmed. I think it was the owner who recommended the #3 green smoothie. It was all fresh ingredients and no sugar added and boy did it hit the spot. I can't wait to go back and try more things. Really great experience. read more

Love the Agua Frescas here and the kind and professional service. This place is spotlessly clean. Juices are delicious and the Pleasure Point taco truck out front serves up the best tacos In town. Again not greasy and absolutely fresh and delicious read more

I came here expecting a quick smoothie stop but left completely blown away. Pleasure Point Juice serves up way more than just acai bowls and drinks, the savory options here are where it's at! We tried the carne asada fries, and they were insanely good--cheesy, flavorful, loaded with toppings, and perfect for sharing. The birria tacos were packed with juicy meat and came with rich consommé and two vibrant sauces that added the perfect kick. For drinks, the chocolate shake with wafers was pure indulgence, while the strawberry smoothie was super refreshing and not overly sweet. You can tell they use quality ingredients. Outdoor seating at picnic tables adds a laid-back vibe, great for a sunny afternoon. Service was quick and friendly too. If you're in the area, this spot is 100% worth a visit whether you're craving something healthy or going full comfort food mode. read more

I love açai, but I am picky about it. I walked in, and Mario took good care of us and walked us through the options. We got two bowls, and I requested some swaps for my bowl which were quickly accommodated. I love the feel of the little Hispanic fruit stand, and let me just say that the açai did NOT disappoint. The base was genuinely one of the best bases I have had in California. Better than all of these chain shops that have fake açai. If you're looking for açai, this is the response to come to read more

Seriously the most fire horchata. I loved this spot so much I went twice in one week! Outside of the location they have a food truck which has fantastic Birria tacos to go along side read more

I don't know if it was the heat, but the attitudes and them serving people ahead of us is crazy. So we walked out. Might never try them. Only had two people in there too. read more

Pleasure Point Juice - Sophia's Açaí. $12.50 - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Santa Cruz, California

Found this place on Yelp when searching for açaí bowls. A little hole in the wall place. Wasn't busy at all. Staff are super welcoming and helpful. Me and my husband both got Sophia's bowl with peanut butter. The açaí base is very refreshing and the fruit on top is freshly cut. One of the better açaí bowls I have had before. Not into açaí bowls? There is a taco truck outside and plenty of other options available inside. read more

I stopped here with a few friends for a mid-beach day refresher. Pleasure Point Juice has so much to offer than just juice LOL. Mexican desserts, smoothie bowls, milkshakes, savory snacks, ice pops-- idk how they have so many offerings and keep their quality consistently so good. ACAI SMOOTHIE: Great quality açaí~ Their blend is refreshing & cool, without being too icy or slurry. Although, this is notably smaller than their other smoothies (more expensive ingredients?). I tried my friends' smoothies and elote-- just as good as the next! Will have to be back to try their açaí bowls and tacos the next time I'm in Santa Cruz :-) read more

Food: Ordered #2 (blackberry, strawberry, blueberry) and #5 (pineapple, mango, banana?) smoothies, both with almond milk. #2 came out a little watery than the #5 but both were super refreshing, and they use real fruit chunks!! $9 per smoothie for a 24oz cup. 50 cents extra if you pay with card. Service: Friendly and quick! Ambiance: Looked like a small business, maybe it's family owned? Either way, we were glad to stop by! There's some tables inside to sit if you want to enjoy your treats there. They had a wide range of juices, smoothies, açaí bowls, ice creams, and paletas. Small parking lot right in the front. read more

Forgot to take pictures but the venue is fairly unassuming and located behind the food truck that appears to be permanently parked in the front of the storefront. Indoor seating is limited -- we sat outside. We arrived during an off-time and were the only patrons there -- service was friendly quick and attentive. We ordered some fresh juice and an açaí bowl inside and then ordered tacos and a burrito from the food truck (related company/owners???) --- and it was all delicious. Juice was a generous serving and the food was s expected with homemade salsa provided in cups for personalized tastes. I'm sure they feed the local pleasure point crowds but I'd go out of my way to come back for the juice! read more

We liked the açai bowl. We liked it a lot. We tried the cotton candy ice cream. We didn't like it. Definitely choose the bowl. It was amazing. We tried the 420 one. read more

We having been coming here for years because it's so good. I recently tried their paletas and they are delicious. The staff is always very friendly and answer all my questions. read more

Came here after Samba Rock was closed!! A bit hard to find, taco truck in front of the store and shares space with their Mexican food/fruit offerings. Small lot to park in. There is signage though so you'll see it! Workers are nice! 420 bowl (kiwi, blueberry, mango with hemp granola) - they ran out of kiwi and their hemp granola so I subbed in pineapple and their regular granola. SO GOOD. The acai base was cold and thick, no one likes a melted acai bowl! The pineapple, mango, and blueberries were SOSO fresh. Pineapples were so sweet and didn't make my tongue all tingly. Their takeout containers are also nicely thought out- makes it super mess free to eat out of and to carry to the beach. Just found my new favorite place for acai bowls in SC! read more

Stopped by here to grab an acai bowl with my brother before heading to the beach. I ordered Sophia's Bowl with bananas, strawberries, blueberries, honey, and without the French vanilla granola. He ordered the Island Bowl with blueberries, papaya, mango, and coconut flakes. Service was quick, I was surprised when the bowl came out in a square plastic container! Just didn't seem very conducive. It was honestly pricey for the amount of acai they gave us ($10 for a bowl). It tasted really good and the ingredients were fresh, but I was offput by those two factors. read more

We ordered two açaí bowls as a snack . This place is pretty much the local fruiteria in the area. Good stuff read more

Update. Came with my family and tried some new things: Horchata: Was a delicious and very sweet drink. I would recommend sharing it with someone because it was way too much sugar for me and I couldn't finish the whole big cup. It had the right amount of rice milk and cinnamon though. Mixed Fruits: Again, I'm not a fan of chamoy/tajin so I can not say much about this. But I did enjoy the fruits that did not have as much of that spice. Cookies & Cream Milkshake: A little pricey (I believe it was $8) but it did come with a wafer which was unique. Also tasted like a normal milkshake and it wasn't chunky (which I would've preferred) read more

Four stars with the potential for 5 stars. Went on a whim today for a quick post workout mini meal. It's located on Portola right next to 'Over the Hill Saloon'. Do NOT use the Saloon parking lot. There are a handful of spots on the street and lots more if you turn down 38th and walk the half block back. It's a large indoor space that I feel could be utilized better, although it does make it feel roomy. It was a beautiful day so I enjoyed my açaí bowl outside. There is also a taco truck outside if you're with someone who isn't into açaí or smoothies. I had the 420 bowl, I forgot to tell them no honey so it was a little sweet for my preference. I was a little disappointed that it came in a plastic togo container. Being just a few blocks from the ocean I would expect something more sustainable. It would be wonderful if they switched to a corn based compostable plastic or paper. I would love to see protein powder as an add on too. It's pretty standard for açaí places and I was a little disappointed they didn't offer it (especially since I had just completed a workout). The woman who took my order was quick and efficient, there wasn't much chit chat - it was definitely more 'take your order'. I would love to see this place adjust those few things I mentioned or consider them. I think both options would be a crowd pleaser. I live closer to Samba Rock so they will still be my go to but I'm glad I tried this for when I'm on that side of town. read more

The smoothies were amazing and the service was great. We had a conversation with the owner while waiting for the order, and he was really nice and pleasant to speak with. They have a taco truck parked out front, so we'll have to come back for it later! We ordered an acai smoothie, #4 smoothie (mango, strawberry and pineapple), and duritos. The second smoothie in particular was huge. Great spot on a warm day! read more

Pleasure Point Juice - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Santa Cruz, California

Pleasure Point Juice serves the best magonadas I've ever had. We ordered magonadas, mixed fruit, chicharron preparado, the pleasure bowl, the corn bowl, and a couple tacos. * Mangonada: 5/5 The perfect thing for a hot day! Not to sweet and a good serving size. * Mixed fruit: 4/5 A lot of fruit and good variety. Pretty average though. * Chicharron Preparado: 3/5 We ordered this not knowing what it was and ended up not being big fans of the pork rind slices. The pork rind slices had a chewy texture and felt a little gelatinous. However, I'm sure that if we liked pork rind slices, this dish would've been great as it had avocado and cabbage as well. * Pleasure Bowl: 4/5 The apples were a great touch and added a good crunch to the bowl, we just found the bowl to be a little too sweet and lacking in tanginess. * Corn Bowl: 5/5 Just your typical corn bowl. Tasted amazing and served warm :) * Tacos: 4/5 Nothing out of the ordinary, but served with a lot of meat! Will definitely be coming back! read more

The prices shown online were outdated and the acai bowl was more expensive than expected. Not sure if that is a tactic to get people to come in or if it is an oversight. Got a hemp acai bowl and it was just ok. read more

Tasty smoothies, albeit nothing special. VERY impeccable service! Very tiny hole in the wall with basically no seating or parking, so plan accordingly. Did see some very delicious stuff on the menu worth going back and trying on another visit. read more

Why did I not discover this place sooner? No more driving to Watsonville every time for my Mexican desserts - this great little spot at the Point's got it covered! They carry paletas, mangonadas, ice cream, bionicos, and other dessert items, as well as more savory options like juices, acai bowls, tortas, and tacos. So really you can get both your meal and a treat here. I had a diablito, which was just like a mangonada but with tamarind instead of mango sorbet. Wow was it good. The tamarindo was so refreshing and a unique touch. I don't visit east side beaches much but if I did, this would become a staple in my beach routine. We also picked several paletas to take home. They make them all in house and have an impressive variety! Can't wait to try the pecan or the mango with chili. Service was quick, friendly, and helpful. And the space felt safe during the pandemic. Face coverings are required and they ask that you wait outside while they prepare your order. So happy to now have this place to get a treat in a stress free environment! read more

I'm so happy I came across this spot- healthy juice+fruits+bomb Mexican food! The birria tacos were some of the best I've EVER had.

Support local businesses! I finally tried pleasure point juice. Great nutritious items to choose from. I ordered a açaí smoothie bowl and to drink I had their aguas frescas and they were good! I would definitely come back, I think I like it better than Jamba Juice. Because it doesn't feel as heavy. I will try other flavors next time! read more

I decided to come here on a nice day, and I'm glad I did. The fruit tasted very fresh. I really enjoyed the Bionico, which I'd recommend if you're craving something sweet. My brother loved the Mangonada. The staff was friendly, and there were clean tables for us to sit outside. I would love to come back next time I am in the area read more

Pleasure Point Juice - Bionico and Mangonada. Super fresh and delicious - Juice Bars & Smoothies Near Me - Santa Cruz, California

Not sure why this place is so highly rated. They didn't honor the two mangonadas for one check-in deal from Yelp! We had two of their most popular smoothies, and we only finished one. The blueberry one with almond milk wasn't that good, but the mango OJ one was alright. They have a taco truck outside, but it's not easy to park. Inside there are some tables, and they sell other treats. I suppose it's popular due to coastal neighborhood, but it was empty when we went in the afternoon. read more

This is literally the best açaí place I have ever been to. I live in LA now and have tried countless açaí bowl places and this takes the cake. Their servings are huge and the quality of their açaí is excellent. Combined with the fresh fruit and hemp granola, it's a match made in heaven! The smoothies are bomb too. I would come here all the time if I still lived here. 10/10 best açaí ever. I dream about this place. The employees are so nice too! read more

We opted for one of each and the fruits were fresh and sweet. read more
