Oh wow, I'm so glad I found this place! I visit Berkley often for work and to visit my son who's a student. This is hands-down the best breakfast option around. The oatmeal bowls are absolutely delicious, as are the smoothies. Everything is high-quality and fresh. I ordered ahead for pickup and it was ready when I arrived the shop is really cute and the staff was fast and friendly. I'm getting ready to order again today before flying home and I will definitely be back anytime I'm in town.Dietary restrictions: Great place for vegan, vegetarian, and gluten free folks. But anyone will find their food delicious.

The açaí bowl was delicious! They have no Wi-Fi and little seating inside. There is a public restroom however. I’d come back and plan to.

Oh, how l love a refreshing and healthy smoothie! I've had the Warrior and the the Rise (with almond butter instead of peanut butter) and both are yummy. They use straight up ingredients and the drinks are not too sweet. I believe they use Ritual Cold Brew for their coffee base. Palm Acai, stay delicious!

Came here hoping to find a more local equivalent to acai bowl places I like. I really prefer customizable bowl places which this place doesn't offer so I picked the Emerald bowl. It took them around 10 minutes to make the order. I didn't love it as much as I'd hoped. The fruit toppings weren't super sweet and I probably should have gotten a sweeter base to satisfy my sweet tooth. Overall, I probably wouldn't return and will stick with customizable bowl places.

Loved my tropical smoothie. Had been thirsting for fresh fruit and this hit the spot. I did catch a little "freezer burn" flavor in it though

I love the variations, freshness and quality of this place! Suited in a lovely area on college ave where you can walk around and enjoy your açai bowl. They also have other menu options like smoothies which I hear about delightful. Staff were nice and quick and it's nice and clean vibe inside makes your snack much more enjoyable. Definitely going to be a regular here!

The best açaí bowl I've ever had!! Gather bowl + cacao nibs and chia pudding. My boyfriend got the Hunter bowl + chia pudding and loved his too. Limited seating but really cute spot!

Hands down the best açaí bowls in Berkeley! The bowls are always consistent and taste super fresh every time. I always come here when I need something to cleanse my body or want something that tastes fresh and clean! The service is great and the inside is decorated so cute! I always get the little bear but I also like the hunter as well. Have yet to try the warm bowls but would want to in the future! 10/10 recommend

Stoped by to get bowls after a nice hike at tildon regional park . I would have to say the best açaí bowls in Berkeley !!! Parking was a little difficult as it on a busy street. But the place inside was causal with a few areas to sit and eat ! They don't allow you to build your own bowl but you can do add ons . The bowls are delicious and service is good !

I strongly believe Palm Açai has the best açai not only in all of NorCal, but both NorCal and SoCal combined. Every loved one who visited me in Berkeley experienced me coaxing them into a trip to Palm where I raved about the pitaya bowl I get until they try it for themselves. My favorite bowl is the Dragon Bowl with added Nutella. 10/10 will always be delicious and super filling enough to replace an entire meal in the day.The service is pretty efficient, as I've always received my order fairly quickly, And while it isn't spacious inside, there are still a few seats to utilize if you really do want eat inside. If you don't, there are several seating options outside down the street.

Delicious açaí bowls! I got the Matcha-Chia Bowl and it was very good and very filling. The service was friendly and quick. The ambiance is very chill and the space is small but not different than any other açaí spot. I'd love to return and try other items on their menu!
