Nice bowls and smoothies, including warm oatmeal options and vegan protein boosts, nice staff and nice place with an outdoor garage

Just found a gem of a natural juice, fruit bowl, and smoothie spot, and honestly I'm glad I stumbled on it. Everything is truly all-natural, which is a huge plus in this day and age when so many places load their stuff with unnecessary additives. You can really taste the difference here. I tried the Indecisive Bowl, the PBJ, and the Date Smoothie, and every single one hit the spot. The bowl was fresh and layered with flavor, the PBJ tasted like a healthier throwback to the classic combo, and the Date Smoothie was rich, naturally sweet, and super satisfying. You can tell they put care into what they're making. I'm definitely going back, and tonight I'm actually trying their chickpea "tuna" for dinner. If it's anything like the rest of what I had today, I already know it's going to be good. This place is absolutely worth checking out. read more

Went to Soul Bowls after my yoga class and I'll definitely be back! The girls were so sweet helping me decide what smoothies and add ons to get. My smoothie was soooo yummy. The inside is so cute, and they told me it gets even better in the summer when they have a farmer's market! read more

I visited Soul Bowls after having a midweek brunch at nearby Hatch 44. I was too full to get one of their bowls but decided to get a smoothie to enjoy on the ride home. I went with their seasonal pumpkin pie smoothie. This place was pretty popular, especially with people coming in to pick up pre-orders. Although there weren't many people in the shop, I still had a bit of a wait because they were filling online orders as well. The wait wasn't terrible, though. I enjoyed my smoothie. It wasn't too sweet. I would definitely return. Their bowls look amazing, and I want to try one next time. read more

Still love the quality of the ingredients here and the taste, which I think is slightly above some otheother bowl brands, but they do seem understaffed at times. Today I was in and out (slow Sunday), but in the past I had a fifteen minute-wait after order was placed. The other thing is, the bowls are very pricey for what it is. My Elvis bowl was almost $17. I switched out the peanut butter for almond butter and added cacao nibs. High. But, worth it for an occasional treat. Again, I return because of quality and taste. read more

#50 of 100 A complete surprise to find this little gem in the heart of Metuchen. This female owned local smoothie and acai shop was a perfect find for us. We tried the wellness shot " healer" with turmeric, lemon and ginger that was served fast in a little plastic container for $4. Wait times were short even though had other customers waiting. The owner' s mom rang us up, gave us a little history of their start and told us of the history of being 100% vegan for you health conscious folks out there. Absolutely would come back for their protein smoothies that would be great after a run or workout. Plenty of spaces to sit inside or outside when warmer . Return : definitely read more

Delicious smoothies. Lots of variety. Loved the Doctor Green Wonderful staff Canme back 3 times in one week read more

We got the emerald bowl with half banana whip and it was life changing. There is a lot of thought put into this bowl and the things that stood out were its small diced fruit that was easy to enjoy, the home made soft granola, and the banana whip as no one serving stuff like the around. The service was good. The cashier made our bowls while handling multiple customers upon closing and the bowl was made perfectly for every bite with granola waiting for us at the bottom. The Metuchen location has a charming ambiance with lots of natural sunlight and big windows to get some sunlight and enjoy this sweet treat read more

Very relaxed with a bunch of smiling faces to meet you at the counter and make recommendations. Everything is super fresh and handmade.

Great visit to Soul Bowls as I was craving a fruit bowl. The staff were so friendly and provided great recommendations being that it was my first time stopping in. I ordered the Vaykay without the coconut flakes and WOW so delicious and hearty. I loved the homemade granola and fresh fruit. I was so happy I did not order the large as the small size was packed and so filling. The outdoor seating was lovely to enjoy on a nice day. read more

SWEETEST staff and most delicious and fresh bowls. Love that they are 100% vegan and even make their own homemade vegan "nutella" and granola. The person helping us was so nice and helpful with what to get. Although they are pricey, $14 for a small bowl, i would say its so much better than any bowl ive had (playa bowl etc) their acai is super fresh and you can taste that. Location is so cute and beachy vibes in the interior. Love their outdoor space for the summer too! Definitely returning, but wish they had coupons/ ways to save! read more

Cannot recommend soul bowls enough!! Their smoothies, juices, bowls, kombucha, snacks.... They're all delicious and fresh and never fail to satisfy!!! Every single person who works here greets you like a friend, and it truly is the most welcoming environment. Some standouts are the cookies and cream balls, the Medidate smoothie, and honestly any of their juices! My family come here for breakfast, lunch, snacks. It's perfect for any time read more

Soul Bowls was a great addition to the downtown Metuchen area and was the highlight of my summer in 2022! I loved the simple, but elegant decor inside and the pretty mural in the outdoor seating area. I was even lucky to witness when they were live painting some of it. The staff are so nice and can guide you in recommendations. You do need to wait a bit while your order is getting ready, but I didn't mind! I was happy with every order I made at this shop. My favorite bowls were always the ones with nut butter and fruits on top. I also enjoyed the cold brew, but it was on the more expensive side, around $5-6. The bowls were priced around the same as other açaí bowl chains. As for the smoothie part of the açaí bowl, the texture was thick and more frozen. I personally prefer the smoothie to be more creamy and smooth. Nevertheless, I enjoyed all my orders and would love to go back next summer! read more

They make acai bowls and their own nutella. I repeat their own Nutella. It's vegan. It's good. A lot better than the other acai bowl joint across the street. It's new. Go there if you want acai bowl instead of ice cream. read more

I never really had an urge to go here because I figured it was just another rendition of playa bowls. However, I saw one of their posts on Instagram featuring a super smooth looking banana nice cream, so I wanted to try it out. The bowls are a bit expensive at $12 for a small bowl but it could easily feed 2 people. It was easy to make an order, but they ran out of blueberries so I had to pick a different topping. For 2 bowls, it took about 15 minutes to come out. I decided to make my own bowl with acai and banana whip, and for the toppings I had banana, strawberry and mango. The bowls are filled to the brim and come out beautifully. The fruit was chopped finely, which made it easier to eat. I think the mango could've been a little more ripe but I didn't notice it too much. I love granola, but there was too much and it really filled me up. The granola could've also been more crunchy (it was on the chewier side), but that's my personal preference. The banana whip was good at first, but as it melted, it became more goopy, like how blended bananas are. I would probably try a different combo with acai next time because of this. The açaí was pretty solid, no complaints. read more

Super fresh and tasty ingredients. Got the love butter bowl: açaí, pitaya, nutella, peanut butter, bananas, raspberries, and vegan chocolate chips, layered with raw, vegan, gluten-free granola and organic agave nectar and I think I added blueberries as well. Got the bowl to go in a small. Bowl was filled but I do feel like I could have used a little more of the acai/pitaya base but in their defense it was filled with other delicious ingredients. I also bought both of the protein balls from the cold case... one was a cookie one and the other was peanut butter. Would definitely come back and order again! read more

My only regret was that I didn't take a picture before diving in!!! I had a hard time deciding which bowl to get because they all sounded so MAGICAL. Decided on the "indecisive" because LOL. The Indecisive bowl has pineapple, strawberry, banana with pitaya and açaí base over home-made granola. I added peanut butter. WOWWWW wow WOW. I was in SHOCK how good it was and literally couldn't stop eating although I was beyond full. The fruit was super fresh, very nicely chopped up. The texture of the açaí and pitaya was so smooth and amazing. The granola was super healthy but felt like I was indulging in a dessert (when can you actually say that about granola alone?!?!) chia seeds, coconut flakes and other stuff-tasted super fresh. They also have a iced coffee on tap that is amazing!!! I am admittedly a coffee snob. I also normally have to add shots of espresso to a regular coffee because it doesn't hit. I tried the blueberry iced coffee and was--once again--blown away. Strong and flavorful!!! The ambiance is super chill! The girl at the counter was super sweet and was able to meet the owner who was also very nice!!! I'm only in town for a few days but before I left I made plans to return the following day! If you are use to Playa Bowls-prepare to have your socks knocked off! read more

I have been to the Soul Bowls in Scotch Plains a plethora of times. This was my first time at the Metuchen location and I was not disappointed. The fruit was fresh and the serving was generous. Quick service and the server was helpful. I enjoyed my "Stay Classy" bowl sitting on the outside patio. read more

The IMMEDIATE taste of my bowl was AMAZING!! This place is clean, the staff is very friendly & the food... OMG!!!

Great little spot to grab som Açaí or similar items. I must applaud this place, their ingredients are fresh, place is clean, and staff is super friendly and kind. It does take awhile to get the bowls but that's no problem with me. One time I don't think my Açaí was grounded up enough (little ice bits in my bowl) but that won't hurt the review. Still enjoyed my experience. Would definitely come back! read more

Acai. I expect this fruit to be the enjoyment of my day, yet I was disappointed. The acai here is too sweet and overbalances the natural taste of the acai berries. It should be not too sweet nor too bitter. Today I go home with $18 less and a dissatisfied stomach. I had to take a bang for my buck and was forced to eat all $18 of my bowl without a complaint. Won't be coming here again. Worst acai experience ive tasted. Hopefully some changes are made in the future. I'll be waiting. Thank you. read more

Delicious, delicious, delicious! The staff (including the owner) are super friendly, and the bowls are fantastic. I love the layers- you get a little bit of everything in each bite. Much better than having all fruit on top and then having plain acai left. I make the 45-minute drive often JUST for this place. So good! read more
