Acai Bowls near Merrick, NY

“I love Playa Bowls! Even though I’m closer to the Oceanside location, I make the drive to Merrick because the Team is fantastic!! Teresa, Eli, Adriana, Jaelyn and Quinn deserve to be recognized for their outstanding performance!!

Let’s face it - spending $20 for a fruit bowl is considered a luxury in these times, so it helps to have wonderful people taking care of you and making you feel that more special🩷💚“

“This place used to be my favorite açaí joint. My family and I would always go here. But recently (not sure why) they got rid of their kosher certification. It’s really a bummer. We were constant customers and losing a place like this was a bit annoying. We have the kosher playa bowls also in merrick but it’s just not as good. I love sobol don’t get me wrong but if they could just bring back the kosher certification it would be really appreciated.“

“Baya bar is truly the best place I have ever had açaí bowls from ! Everything there is amazing ! I don’t have 1 complaint about there ! My daughter used to go somewhere else & then I brought her to baya bar & that’s the only place she will go now“

“Hands down, best açaí bowl I have ever had!!!! Owner was a delight as well making my first time experience even better!! Everything was super fresh and perfect. Will definitely be back❤️“

“I can honestly say BrainFood Palace lives up to the hype. I received over 100 messages from people telling me I had to check this place out, and they weren’t lying. From the first sip, I knew why everyone was raving about it.

The smoothies are thick, creamy, and full of real fruit. No shortcuts, no watered-down flavor. They actually keep you full and energized, which is rare to find. The fresh juices are just as impressive: light, refreshing, and so clean-tasting that you know you’re getting the real deal.

Beyond the drinks, the vibe of the place makes it even better. The staff is welcoming, friendly, and you can tell they take pride in what they’re serving. It’s the type of spot where you feel good the moment you walk in, and even better when you leave with something fresh in hand.

I totally understand why so many people told me to try it. BrainFood Palace is easily a 5/5. A must-visit if you love smoothies, juices, or just want something healthy and delicious. OH LAWDD!“

“In Nov of 2022, I had the most AMAZING gluten-free bagels I’ve ever tasted! At first, I was afraid they had given me regular bagels! They’re THAT good! I live in Kentucky and have been DREAMING of those bagels ever since I ate the last one!“

“Açaí bowl w/mango extra granola. This is the Popeyes spicy chicken sandwich of frozen treats. 10/10“

“I’m here at least once a week, it’s the best açaí of the local places….not freezer burned, not sweet but not bitter either and the consistency is scoop-able and great. Been coming for years! The product is super fresh. Different locations have different products like lunch items, the smaller locations tend to focus on breakfast. They have a young staff all really nice. Highly recommend.“

You can really tell the food is made with quality ingredients and care. We truly appreciated the generosity and the chance to try such great food. Everyone in the office loved it!

We’ll definitely be ordering from you again and recommending you to our patients and friends.“

“My second time here, I loved the açaí bowl the first time, overpriced but make sense , it’s delicious and fresh ingredients, so it’s worthy, however the experience I had this morning with the lady in the front was horrible, 0 professional and tbh I wouldn’t go back to be treated like that. But oh boy, the coconut bowl it’s so good.“

“Came here the night before Christmas Eve because the East Meadow one had closed early. The two people working were lovely and made honestly one of the best bowls I’ve ever had! The blend was great and there were plenty of toppings! Very happy with my experience.“

“Lauren and Felicia made my order and it was delicious! I had a problem with my doordash order (door dashes fault not Sobols) and Lauren and Felicia quickly resolved it and remade my order after my doordash driver dropped it and it exploded all over the bag. They’re super friendly and great hard workers. I’ll definitely be ordering from this location again :)“

“Swirl Bliss Frozen Yogurt is officially my new favorite froyo spot! The shop is clean, comfortable, and has the perfect welcoming vibe. The staff was super friendly and patient while I sampled flavors, and every recommendation was on point. The toppings bar was fresh and fully stocked, and the yogurt itself was creamy, flavorful, and not overly sweet.

On top of that, the seating area is bright, comfy, and actually a nice place to sit and enjoy the vibe instead of rushing out. You can tell they care about the customer experience. I’ll definitely be coming back on my next visit to New York! I highly recommend if you’re in the area and craving something sweet or healthy! I sat an enjoyed a Açaí Smoothie with peanut butter! Delicious!!“

“I have a gluten allergy and my friend is vegan. Lots of options for both, prices are fair and the food tastes great. I live far away but definitely will come back next time I'm out this way

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free“

“Great staff. It’s very interactive because there’s a white board anyone can right on and the tables have games like tic tac toe and connect four. It is really nice and I recommend going with friends. Also look out for deals. Never got something there and didnt like it. Everything there is a hit.

Dietary restrictions: Offer nut free and dairy free and vegan options.

Parking: It’s in a shopping center so tons of parking with many people going out and in.

Kid-friendliness: Have lots of food portion sizes and games!“
