Acai Bowls near Ocean City, NJ

“Really good ice cream, large portions, seating available, bathrooms on site, off-street parking is free (but limited, of course). Not cheap, but what is? Workers are chill. A few blocks from the beach and boardwalk—no seagulls! The wait is worth it. Wish they opened a little earlier in the day, when it’s really hot. Also, a flavor board at the back of the line would be nice.“

“Freshest fruit for their bowls and smoothies, never had strawberries and blackberries so plump and delicious!! And their avocado toast on the homemade sourdough bread is literally The Ultimate Breakfast.“

“Our first time here - gal at the register was very friendly and helpful. We order two smoothies - both were delicious. Hard to watch two people working and four just standing gossiping, texting, watching tictok. Also, if you’re going to ware gloves for açaí bowl prep, please use caution with touching your hair, counter, face, phone etc and then going back to food prep - gloves can give a false sense of clean and there was lots of cross contamination there.“

“Goji in Ocean City isn’t the sort of place you stumble into looking for irony. It’s not the faded neon fried-dough joint, not the screaming boardwalk pizza stand. It’s something rarer—a quiet act of rebellion.

The açai bowls here aren’t health food in the sanctimonious sense. They’re a revelation. Cold, velvety purple fruit that doesn’t taste like compromise, piled high with bananas, berries, coconut, a drizzle of honey that feels almost illicit. It’s indulgence disguised as virtue, or maybe the other way around. A bowl you dig into with a plastic spoon, and suddenly you’re wide awake, sunburned, grinning, alive.

And the coffee—Christ, the coffee. In a town where “iced coffee” usually means burned diner drip poured over a plastic cup of cubes, Goji takes it seriously. Strong, dark, bitter in the right way, the kind of cup that cuts through the salt air and the sugar fog of the boardwalk. It’s coffee that respects you, that wakes you up without apology.

Together, the bowls and the coffee feel almost subversive in Ocean City. A one-two punch of clarity and pleasure in a place addicted to corn syrup and fryer oil. You leave Goji not weighed down, but lifted up, ready to walk the beach, watch the gulls, maybe even believe for a second that boardwalk towns can evolve.

Goji isn’t a trend. It’s proof that even amid the carnival chaos, someone still gives a damn about flavor, about quality, about doing things right. And that, frankly, is worth raving about.“

“We started patronizing in 2022. Always consistent and friendly staff. Went today! Great service! 🏁👍“

“Literally had the best smoothie ever. It’s called Peanut Butter Lovesicle and it’s the freaking bomb. I’ll be stopping there on my Monday and Tuesday walks on the boardwalk �“

“So delicious. We go to the one in sea isle city nj . We also have a residence in Annapolis Md . In the Annapolis Towne Centre . Would love to see one there . There are some open spaces and there is no other walk up food type place . No other ice cream or yogurt places there . Would be great location for a playa bowls . There is a True Food going up so there’s a health food trend that could be started !!“

“Aine was such a great employee! Would definitely be back!“

“A quintessential beachy bowl to go spot. Decor is so cute and different at each Playa shop. The mango and the banana base are the best! The green base tasted like ice. The acai base was berry tasting and the pitaya base is sweet. I have gotten 15 different bowls all over the state and they never disappoint. The staff at somers point was helpful, cheerful and thorough. A definite favorite place to get healthyish fruit bowls. FYI they are not keto friendly.“

“I need to know what’s in this iced coffee it is so good. I think I’ve developed a slight addiction to it. I’m telling you if you drink it too many days in a row no other coffee will do it for you. I’m over here sipping my local coffee shop my go to you know before I got this coffee on a whim because I really like the açai bowl, and it may have created a problem in my life because I don’t think I’m gonna be able to get any other coffee daily. It’s just not gonna be my coffee fixed. You know what I’m saying.“
