Acai Bowls near Bronx, NY

“Honestly, the healthiest cafe in the Castle Hill area of the Bronx, if not in the Bronx!“

“Love this little cafe! Brand new in the area, only around 5months old. Kind and attentive staff. Let us stare at the menu for a while and talk and served us immediately!
Stopped in quick while running errands in the area.
Foodie partner got a coffee while I got a coco açaí bowl (I just can’t resist 😩)
Acai bowl was quickly made and fresh. Med being around $8 and large $10. I got a med and enjoyed it!
All came out to around 15
Can’t wait to head back for a matcha 😉“

“I taked to there "my kids" (im a babysitter) to have a açai bowl with a lot of tops. they loved so much and they tried the pao de queijo too, The Best.“

“I work 2 blocks away and Juicy Cube is my go-to for a quick breakfast or lunch. Everyone is always kind and my smoothie always comes out delicious. Next time you visit, get the peanut paradise! Also, I accidentally ordered something incorrectly online one time and they kindly fixed it in store with no issues 😊“

“love the protein bowl! love all the juices!“

“Stumbled across the place during my walk this afternoon, popped in for a smash burger and fries and was delighted to find the food was excellent! The burger was fresh and cooked perfectly, and the fresh cut fries were crispy and delicious. What a pleasant surprise! Welcome to the neighborhood, Empire Shop!“

“The coffee is always amazing, and you can tell the baristas really know what they’re doing. Every drink is made with care, and the quality is consistently great.

The owners are also awesome. They’re friendly, welcoming, and genuinely care about their customers. It’s the kind of place where you feel appreciated from the moment you walk in.

Great coffee, great people, and a great vibe. If you’re looking for a spot with excellent drinks and outstanding customer service, this is definitely it. Highly recommend!“

“Lovely atmosphere and did my breakie the way this Australia gal likes it. Hope the new location does well!“

“I would strongly recommend paying this place a visit. The food is great and the service is very fast.“

“I had an excellent experience The service was outstanding from the moment I walked in. The place is spotless, welcoming, and has a great atmosphere. You can tell the owners truly care about their customers and take pride in what they do—they’re friendly, hardworking, and make everyone feel welcome. If you’re looking for a clean place with great service and wonderful owners, I highly recommend Ball Shake. I’ll definitely be back!“

“My favorite spot for an acai bowl! The owner and the staff are always so sweet and welcoming. I’m obsessed with the Stella nutella bowl. Also the portion sizes are good and actually fill you up. Their gelato is a hidden gem too!
Everything tastes so fresh and delicious. It’s become my favorite post workout reward. Highly recommend 💚“

“Love this place. It is a great place on the Upper West Side!“

“Everything look amazing and the taste is even better! 😍 Hands down for Om Juice Bar! 🙌🏻💛“

“Awesome Açaí bowls and smoothies! 😋“

“soooooo delish! came here on a weekday evening and the girls servicing were so nice! i got a pitaya x green base w/ almond butter (which is so flippin’ good).

definitely on the pricier end, but you pay for the quality and amount; this bowl was beautifully layered and packed!“

“Perfect start to the day! We stayed here 4 or 5 times during our week in NY for breakfast. We tested porridge, acai bowls and smoothies. The "Hell's Kitchen Sink" tastes awesome (with peanut butter and cocoa nips.) The smoothies Boo Berry, Gymbuddy and Energy Boost are each made with almond or coconut milk and protein powder .We loved everything! The service is very friendly and There are only a few seats, so we were there early (about 8 / 9h) and had no problems getting a small table.Now we are back home and miss the delicious bowls!“

“Love coming here for bubble tea! Some of the best I’ve had in lower Manhattan. Service is quick and friendly too. Only a couple of barstools for seating so it’s more of an in-and-out kind of place. Their drinks tend to be on the sweeter end but if you let them know to make it half sweet then they turn out perfect for me.“

“Reasonably priced with great options and nice service ^_^“

“This is a wonderful place. Staff is very professional and friendly. They offer a variety of juices, smoothies, oatmeals and many more delicious options. I am so glad I stopped by today.😊😊“

“I walked in and the place as well as the food looked so clean and fresh. There are so many healthy options, including your very own quinoa bowl. We were helped by a kind employee named Alberto, who even gave us two packets of oats both on the house. He was so kind and everything about this place is just perfect for those who simply want a healthy eating experience.“

“A wide selection of Asai (and other based) bowls. Endless combinations of fruit with added garnishments. Reading the founders story and appreciating the immersive design of the location you can almost feel like you escaped from 2nd avenue off to a warm sunny beach elsewhere. Enjoy surfing the flavors of your bowl, there is no need for sunscreen and you won't need to clean up any sand before you get back home. There is an additional seating space to and a restroom inside. The servings are bigger than your average Asai bowl (may be enough for 2) but the prices are also relatively high.“

“Es lugar nuevo los jugos son frescos y saludables lo recomiendo le 5 estrellas y la gente muy profesional y buena vibra 🥤“

“The staff are welcoming and kind, they went above and beyond for my daughter and I. Definitely a place I would return to and recommend to others.“

“Nice spot to grab some boba tea or smoothies. Most of the drinks are phenomenal, and the boba itself is sweet, but not overpowering, and is chewy, but not too chewy, making it perfect to my liking. I also enjoy how I am available to change the sugar and ice content, giving me the ability to tailor it to my liking even further. My only complaints are that the blender is loud, making it hard to communicate and understand the server. Also, the drinks from the “Butterfly Pea” series taste like water after a while. Overall, nice spot.“

“Five star service all around. This facility is extremely clean and has delicious items such as smoothies, açai bowls, fruit bowls Lunch special such as chop cheese and breakfast sandwiches pizza salads it’s a one stop Shop. Not only To reserve delicious healthy items they also have exceptional customer service and go above and beyond for their clients. Thank you so much juice Garden for making this Neighborhood.“

“Delish smoothies, love bahama mama and mango magic but decided to get an smoothie bowl today and was so disappointed by the size and that it came preprepared frozen! Almost 11$ for something the size of my palm… for future vistors - opt for the smoothie not for the bowl! More bang for your buck“

“It’s all about the bowls and bulletproof coffee here. And the juice bundles are top notch AND super affordable!“

“Great and yummy Acai Bowls. My favorite is the Pura vida bowl.And the customer service is amazing. Great team in this location. This location is clean, fast, and welcoming. Thank you making it a great experience. I come here frequently and every time is great.“

“Danny was wonderful. We went to a location on 53rd and Lexington. The food was delicious, the staff was extremely attentive. The place was super clean and inviting, with a cool and relaxing ambiance. We thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. Thank you !!!!“

“The woman who works there at 8am on a Tuesday provided the most pleasant service ever. She was so kind and helpful!! And the acai bowl she made was probably the best I’ve ever had. Girl if you read this you’re awesome and someone give her a raise!!“

“Hands down the best deli in the neighborhood. If you’re looking for a place that remembers your face, look no further. Happy staff, good food and a family friendly environment. They may be new, but they represent that old nyc soul every true NY deli has.

As a born and raised NY’er, I tip my hat to their baconeggandcheese.“

“Delicious, healthy, convenient, refreshing, and great prices.“

“I come here all the time and they’re always great! The staff is super helpful and patient — especially since I’m picky and don’t drink milk or eat bananas. They always get my order right and make it easy for me. Thanks for consistently great service!“

“I came here and ordered one smoothie and got hooked. If you want something that taste natural, get your smoothie here. They have worked on getting the right taste for each smoothie and to me they got something special going on. The Green Glow is not too sweet. For a sweeter, more filling taste; go for the Vitality Boost. If you like ginger and want that strong ginger kick, go for the Blue Green Chill. The Super Acai is nice too. I add peanut butter to the Super Acai to make more filling. You can also customize your own, but their own creations are already a hit. The most popular ones are Peanut Power and Strawberry Lover. I'm a fan of Peanut Power. This is like my fifth time here within 2 weeks so definately I'm a fan of this place. I bought one for my father and he is hooked on Green Glow. So don't miss it....It's between 1st and 2nd Ave on 14 St. Check them out!!! 10 Stars for me. :)“

“If you’re looking for an amazing pre- or post-workout treat — or just something delicious to satisfy your sweet tooth without feeling guilty — this place is it. The service is always wonderful, and the Cowabunga Smoothie is one of my personal favorites. Everything they serve is made with natural, organic ingredients, so you don’t have to worry about a bunch of ultra-processed stuff going into your body. It’s refreshing to find a spot that focuses on quality while still making drinks that taste this good. It’s always a great choice when you need a quick energy boost to keep your day going. Highly recommended.“

“good place in brooklyn and Quens“

“Stumbled across Angie while visiting the area for a long weekend. Went back every morning! Incredible smoothies, excellent service, high attention to detail on curating unique and healthy recipes; better prices than Juice Generation or nearby alternatives“

“Hands down my favorite smoothie place in the city. They have açaí, bubble tea and wellness shots available too. Been to this one and the Chelsea location both quick and fresh, very fair price point. Way better than any juice chain in the city and cheaper“

“Fresh and delicious bowls of goodness. Kind people. Lovely place. 🍌🥥🍒☀️🙏🌿“

“Love Playa Bowls—best açaí bowls hands down!!! They’re hearty and you get a nice size bowl/amount for the price. The options are insane!

My favorite is the power -açaí bowl w/ peanut butter (shown in the picture). My kids love the mucho mango (also in the picture) and the Stupid Cupid (not pictured).

This particular location is a nice size. They have a few tables inside as well as a seating area. There is usually seating outside as well but the entire sidewalk block is under construction at the moment.

I’ve never experienced bad customer service. I’ve dined in, ordered online for pickup, AND I’ve had it delivered before. Always a 10/10!“

“Baya Bar - Acai & Smoothie Shop is a great stop for something fresh and energizing. The acai bowls are vibrant, well-balanced, and loaded with quality toppings. I also liked the variety of smoothies and juices, all tasting clean and refreshing. The bright, casual vibe and quick service make it an easy, feel-good choice anytime.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Juice Gem That’s Been a Staple for 20 Years!

After two decades of being a loyal patron, I can confidently say that Juice Generation continues to set the gold standard for quality and service. While my last juice of the day wasn’t my favorite (a rare miss in 20 years!), I felt a little hesitant about saying something—but the manager, Adolfo, handled it with such professionalism and kindness that I was reminded why I absolutely love this place. The customer service here is consistently top-tier.

My yogi best friend still fondly remembers the field trip I took her on to Juice Generation—she raves about it to this day. We often daydream about opening a Juice Generation in her new home of Hawaii or in our shared hometown of downtown Silver Spring, Maryland. (Trust me, the people there need this in their lives!)

If you haven’t tried Juice Generation yet, consider this your sign. Their smoothies are rich, refreshing, and never slimy like some of the imitators out there. The vegan muffins are absolutely delicious, and the salads? A bright, crisp little pick-me-up that never disappoints.

One minor exception in two decades—and still, I walk away more impressed than ever. Juice Generation isn’t just a juice bar. It’s a lifestyle, a community, and a feel-good ritual that never gets old.“

“Oakberry has the best açaí in the world. Healthy, refreshing, and full of amazing topping options. Everywhere my husband and I travel, we always look for an Oakberry. We highly recommend it! 😍“

“Best smoothies in the west village / Chelsea area. They are always made fresh right in front of you and the 10-12 dollar price is justifiable with its terrific taste. If I could have it everyday I would, but I tend to get one of very hot days and as a supplement to a traditional breakfast (bagel or bacon egg and cheese). Healthy and delicious alternative“

“Absolutely love this spot. I always stop in for a Strawberry Island açaí bowl and fresh juice. The ingredients are always fresh, and the bowls are beautifully made. The staff here is also very kind ... you can really tell they care about delivering high-quality ingredients and a great customer experience. Highly recommend!“
