"While another Playa Bowls is my favorite location ever for acai bowls, this spot needs some work. I pretty much live for acai bowls. I swear they have addictive properties in these wonderberries. When I'm not actively eating them I am daydreaming about them. So this is why I'm super hype to eat them and super destroyed inside when they are messed up. Playa forgot my apples. They didn't forget to charge me for my apples, and definitely repeated the work "apple" back to me when I placed my order, but alas, there were no apples. I was devastated. My bowl tasted like disappointment. I will go back because I have faith in Playa Bowls and the wonder that is the acai berry, but that doesn't mean this didn't sting."
"Great little addition to the Villanova area! I've been there twice in the 6 days since they opened. My coworker/friend and I stopped in on one of our lunchtime walks to get some lunch. She had one of the smoothie bowls and something else that I don't recall, and I tried the chicken avocado toast and a smoothie. Everything was really good and made with good quality ingredients. We chatted a bit with the owner who seemed very noce and eager to do well in this location (they also have a place in Avalon). I stopped in again yesterday to introduce my daughter (VU '23) to the place. She got a smoothie bowl which she loved and I tried another smoothie. So far so good with Good ess Bowls. I know they will do well in VU!"
"Jamber's Juice Bar is a hidden gem that you could easily miss, but should definitely make a part of your regular routine. The owner, Amber, and her staff are friendly and accommodating. Everything I've had so far has been fresh and delicious. The juices are well thought out with the right combos of fruits and vegetables so that there isn't too much of one and not enough of another. The sourdough is fresh, local, and incredibly delicious! I really appreciate that the blueberries are wild & frozen, as they're better for you and I generally prefer them to the fresh ones. It's clear that Amber has done her research on health and nutrition. I highly recommend Jamber's Juice Bar and will return regularly."
"Loved my acai bowl and smoothie. Friendly service. What a great little place to get some healthy options."
"Wow! What a nice addition to Blue Bell area. I purchased both a smoothie and bowl. I ordered a pink flamingo drink and it was so refreshing. I brought the bowl home to my hubby and he was impressed how it was still cold and the presentation was nice. They also have an app, when you download it you receive a free smoothie. I cant wait to come back and try some different smoothie. They also have vegan ice cream which im dying to try. The place itself is super clean and bright. The service is pretty fast a lot of workers preparing the fresh smoothies."
"I was pleasantly surprised that they had so much more than smoothies!!!! The atmosphere was very vibrant, clean and welcoming. You can see your food being prepared, which is a bonus. I had the began sandwich which was pretty good. Along with my smoothie was very fulfilling. I can't wait to return to try a salad and all of the smoothies."
"Nice fresh squeezed juice joint on Lancaster Ave. They have quick-to-grab fresh juices with a one day expiration date, which seems to represent the overall emphasis on natural foods and raw ingredients. I found this place on accident but I'd certainly return."
"Conveniently located within the Villanova train station, the allure for fresh coffee is enormously high. And indeed, convenience is often the victor when certain students arrive on campus each morning. I must say, I do love this place. The woman who is literally always working there, who at this point I have no choice but to assume is the owner, is adorable. She is very friendly and clearly loves the students and her job. The coffee and smoothies are super delicious, again, no doubt about that. I also love that you can buy greek yogurt and bagels here--graduate student staples.However, the prices are madness. I understand that it's Villanova, and you're also paying for the convenience, but whoever created the menu here seriously did not have students in mind. Paying $7 or more for a bagel/coffee combo is absurdity to me. Just across the train tracks, at Second Story Cafe, you can purchase a bagel and a medium coffee for $0.95--yes, you read that correctly. Unless I'm running super late or am feeling ridiculously lazy, I walk right by Rosie's Mug. There are on-campus options that are equally as good that don't attempt to rob me blind."
"This was one of my go to spots for lunch when I was in the office. I haven't been to the office much since the pandemic and was so happy to see this business still open and thriving! Great smoothie and açai options to choose from. Everything is freshly made right in front of you. I always order the chipotle black bean burger or açai bowl. This time I went with the classic samba bowl, which is a tad bit pricey but they do give you a generous amount of fresh fruit and granola. Plus it's delicious and healthy so you can't go wrong with it.Service has always been great here. I just noticed for the first time that they have a beyond burger + smoothie combo for a great deal so I'll definitely check that out next time."

Smoothie place ? Sign me up!!!! Im obsessed with playa bowls. I'm on a huge fruit kick right now so this is perfect when I'm craving something sweet but want to be healthy. This curbs my sweet tooth. Highly recommend the green bowl.

Great addition to Lansdale! I'm all for moving towards a healthier community, The staff is incredibly kind. There's plenty of seating and a small desk for kids to color! The menu is extensive- you can pick from juices, smoothies, bowls or toast. The prices are too high, especially when it isn't declared whether or not the ingredients are organic. Secondly, the iced drinks have way too much ice in them (not smoothies). Makes me question what I am paying for. That being said, incredible staff and great menu!

Been ordering lunch from here since they opened and I AM IN LOVE! The Santorini toast is so good, I'm so obsessed with the spicy cilantro sauce I want to put it on everything I've had a few smoothies that all hit the spot and also the Laguna bowl has great flavor and is so filling. So happy to have this as a healthy lunch option in town!

Shout out to Camille and Shane for stellar service today! With my citrus allergy, I typically stay away from juice bars. The space inside and outside is so comfortable and the upbeat music in the inside space was so refreshing! It was a wonderful surprise to see how open Shane and Camille were to my specific concerns about cross contamination. They made sure I had enough time to make my selection from their wide selection. Then, I was happy with Shane's recommendation to swap out lemon for pineapple. Finally, the icing on the cake, Shane doubled back to make sure my beverage was to my satisfaction! Wow! Customer Service on point, here at nekter!

I had driven by here enough times before finally going in and now I regret waiting so long because this is the smoothie shop of my dreams! I am somebody that adores a delicious creamy smoothie and so many spots often miss the mark. Juiced by B was honestly better than any other smoothie I've had in years! I got the Tropical Bliss for reference, which has banana, mango, spinach, almond milk, and chia seeds.Also the customer service was top notch, with friendly and helpful staff and a very quick turnaround time for my smoothie.I am really excited to come back and try more of their menu items, which include juices, smoothie and açaí bowls, toasts, salads, and wraps!So glad this is in the neighborhood!

Love this little spot the interior is nice and quaint and it would be a good spot to stop and cool down on a hot day. I've been about three times and each time I was happy with what I got. I usually order the coconut base for the acai, nutella, strawberries, coconut flakes, granola, and banana and it's so good each time. They do give you a pretty big portion and I usually feel full from just the standard bowl size. I would love to come back soon and treat myself. My only complaint is that it is a bit pricey, I think I paid about $14 for the acai bowl so that is a bit of a sore feeling. The service is good and everyone working there is always nice!

"Bahia Bowls opened in Chestnut Hill right before the pandemic hit but its flavorful offerings are helping it survive. The bowls and smoothies are a perfect light lunch or snack. I especially like the fruit bowls with the Pitaya Bowl being my favorite. It is so tasty. Remember to stir it up when you go to eat it as the delicious pitaya is on the bottom. As Bahia Bowls is only a very short walk from where I live, I will be crossing its threshold many times. My taste buds and stomach will not be complaining!"
"Excellent food and service, customer service is great ! Love coming here for their juices especially"
"The Quick: Great spot for a healthy bowl of acai. Lots of fun toppings to choose from and relatively creative options. I believe it's locally owned and not part of a chain which is nice. Quick friendly service which is nice too."
"I alternate between here and SoBol, but honestly I prefer here (Playa) so much more. The menu is longer with more options to mix and match and I like their default options more. SoBol has a better granola mix (granola, nuts, pumpkin seeds), but Playa has more fruit options. Playa also pours less honey than SoBol does which is always a plus for me because it's easier to ask for extra honey rather than remove it once it's poured. I usually stick with the Tropical bowl; occasionally you can tell they removed the pineapple recently from the freezer, but it's appreciated on hot days.Worth stopping by to try different combinations. Service is always fast and it's never crowded."
"It's official, I love The Juice Pod. I go there far too much and I'm never disappointed. The smoothies have so much more flavor to them than some other local spots I used to frequent. They actually taste like the ingredients that are listed. I've tried about 10-12 at this point and have enjoyed them all. The lunch items are also great. Wraps, paninis, and toasts are very large. My Greek wrap with chicken was outstanding today. Love the buffalo chicken wraps too. Not everything on the menu has a perfect match for my preferences ingredients-wise, but they are always willing to add or subtract things to make it the way you like it. The staff is really friendly. The owner is always happy to welcome you back, chit chat when things aren't too busy, and thank you for your business. I'm going to keep coming back as long as things remain this consistently great."
"Cute storefront and curb appeal. The store and kitchen area looked very clean and staff was behind friendly. The Açaí bowl was fresh and large! I also loved the Chocolate covered Strawberry Protein Shake! Yum"
"Yay! I am so happy to live close to this beautiful establishment! I need (not want but an actual need) an açaí bowl at a minimum of once a month to keep going. Now I don't have to drive to some hipster college town in search of a franchise to get my fix. The Juice Pod is every bit as good as more well known names with a lot less pretense. They have suggestions for creations but I always roll in and create my own. And I'm happy to report they are very accommodating of my allergy. In addition to açaí bowls there's juice and other healthy things I didn't bother to look at. I have become a loyal customer and look forward to my next fix!"
"My fiancé and I bike all the way from Norristown to explore the bike trail along the river and stop in Conshohocken. The overnight oats with yogurt was the perfect snack to recharge and cool off before heading back home. The fruit tasted fresh and I loved the granola topping. It was also a nice ratio of oatmeal and yogurt. My biking partner got the pitaya bowl. The couple bites I had were delicious. I would highly recommend stopping by for a morning weekend or weekday treat."
"Sips & Berries is located in the heart of Harleysville. This woman-owned business offers many great selections of juices, smoothies, bowls, and bites. I stopped by on a Saturday morning and was greeted by friendly workers and the owner of the store. The staff was incredibly kind, helpful, and fast! The store itself has ample seating, multiple restrooms and plenty of open spaces for little ones to play or roam. There is a parking lot with many spaces and is handicap accessible. The food itself was amazing and so fresh. I ordered a PB Berry bowl with açaí and it comes with banana, blueberries, strawberries, and peanut butter drizzle. I paid $12 for my bowl and it was well with the price for the size and freshness of ingredients. I am looking forward to returning and trying other items from the menu!"
"I visited here when they first open in fall 2021 and just returned to see how things are going. My verdict: improved! The menu is HUGE which isn't a bad thing but I think that is what slows things down. I think smoothies and bowls will always come out faster here and it makes sense since this called the Juice Pod. I went around 1pm for a smoothie and it was very busy with doordash pickups, high school kids hanging, and gym people. I waited only a few minutes for my smoothie and it tasted great. Prices are real high here for plenty of reasons I'm sure. But if I feel like treating myself, there are no other smoothie places that have as much fresh ingredients nearby so this is worth it for me occasionally."
"If you are a lover of Açaí bowls then this spot should be on your list. It is a great neighborhood spot for a healthy meal. You can order there and the bowls are prepared quickly by very friendly staff or you can order online and pick up. Online orders are easy and make it simple to customize your bowls."
"I grabbed a smoothie in here today and absolutely loved it!I am working for a few weeks across the street and I think I found my new go-to spot for a pick me up! They have so many different bowls, juices, smoothies, and even cold brew!I hate banana (which we know is normally in every smoothie), and I was so happy that they were able to substitute it and still maintain a thick and creamy texture in my smoothie. I had the nutter butter and substituted strawberry for banana. It was SO GOOD! Like a peanut butter and jelly in a smoothie! I would get this again and again. They also have this in bowl form.I can't wait to try more flavors here! Definitely a must try spot, especially as the weather warms up :)"
"Great food, decent prices. Curbside pickup. Wish a place like this came along sooner- way bette than smoothie king.The mermaid bowl was as tropical as can be and hit every craving I had for a taste of the Caribbean. So, so sweet, and I loved how it was blue. Will definitely be back."
"Easy online ordering process, delicious açaí bowls, and lots of customizations make this SoBol a winner in my book. I haven't tried a ton of the bowl-style chains in the area as I tend to make fairly delish smoothies and bowls from home when the craving hits, but grabbing lunch delivery totally hit the spot. I appreciate the use of agave in their standard açaí bowl - perfect amount for a not-overly-sweet experience. You can add all kinds of things like peanut butter, fruit, etc, but keeping the classic as is was fabulous. I appreciated the speedy delivery and the fact that my bowl was still frozen perfection upon arrival to my home. I imagine they do a great large order service as well in the event you're looking to mix up your office lunch or breakfast. Will order again!"
"The strawberry / banana smoothie had clumps in the bottom of the cup. It looked like the clumps were under defrosted pieces of frozen fruit. I stabbed my straw into them and couldn't suck them up. Not giving up I jammed the extra large bobo type straw they give you into the frozen item and proceeded to eat my smoothie.My other observation I had is the smoothie itself did not taste as good as the one I had at Juice Pod. The smoothie is $8 here and $10 for the same size at Juice pod, not sure if the quality is less or the preparation is different but pretty sure I saw the person who made it for me scoop it out of a tub like they do at Rita's water ice. The storefront and area inside the store are nice but it's a one and done for me.As always people SYOY!!!"
