Verve Bowls - Capitol Hill

I used to really enjoy this place 6 years ago. When I had an açaí craving last weekend, I visited and was extremely disappointed. I got the regular sized Verve Bowl for $12.50 (pretty standard price for an açaí bowl). The açaí was grainy, the strawberries and blueberries were sour, and the honey didn't pair well at all.I'd much rather get the Açaí Primo from Jamba Juice (essentially the same as the Verve Bowl) for $11. Or even the Sambazon Açaí Bowls from AmazonFresh...Lastly, the staff wasn't friendly or welcoming. They didn't acknowledge customers entering or leaving the store. I also noticed them passing judgmental looks at their customers that did nothing to deserve it... This is an issue that needs to be brought up to management.

After our visit to Hawaii, we fell in love with acai bowls. Verve Bowl is now our go-to spot for a delicious acai bowl before any hike or day trip. Our usual order includes Chocolate My Heart and Verve Bowl, is both delicious and nutritious.

This is my new favorite smoothie shop! I loved the taste the first time I visited, but now that I've seen the super clean ingredients they use, I'm completely obsessed. I'm from LA, and this place beats all the shops back home. The clean protein ingredients are top quality and hard to find at most places, and the staff is super sweet. So impressed!!

Our family loves smoothies so we popped over to Verve after lunch for a healthy dessert. The place is a little hard to find. You won't see it from the road, and it's tucked near the entrance of an apartment building. Once you go inside- it's a bit underwhelming. Perhaps if the employees were a bit friendlier, it could've helped the vibe. One acted as if she'd never seen a child before. There's no seating which isn't a big deal but there was certainly room for some. The Green Bee drink took some getting used to -- was very sour at first but then really began to enjoy it. There's room for improvement but glad this exists for the neighborhood.

I've only ever gotten takeout from here, so my review is limited to the specific experience of ordering online and picking up to go. The ordering process was easy, and all four bowls in our order were accurately prepared. The portions were great, and the fruit was fresh. I'd say they were on par with/slightly above the quality of Jamba Juice bowls, with a little more variety. I do love that you can customize toppings - this puts Verve at the top of my list of Seattle juice/smoothie spots.

This hits the spot when you have an açaí bowl craving and I was impressed with their large menu! I tried the Blue spirulina mango/pineapple bowl and it was good, but I expected it to be better because of the price of these bowls. Unfortunately accessibility-wise given the location it's tough to find a parking spot that's decent. Keep in mind there's no dine in seating but there are some patio tables and chairs outside!

Verve takes you on an enthusiastic and vigorous journey. The acai bowl packs a fruitful frenzy in your mouth. Great ratio of acai bowl with toppings. Furthermore, the main quality of every topping was amazing. The place doesn't really have a seating area, so it is a take out type of spot. Nonetheless, the acai bowls were so good. I think the only reason why it didn't go to the 5 level was flavor and consistency. There were times where it was a bit watery. The flavor was so solid, just not out of this world. Absolutely a good bowl. I repeat; absolutely a good bowl!

I frequent verve more often than any other smoothie shop in seattle. in fact, its the only one I visit nowadays. the fruit is fresh and the workers are so fast! =] I love getting the veracious with vanilla protein. the toast is so good too, both the savory and sweet types. the manager Emma is very friendly, and will always make sure you are happy with your order.

I watched the person who was making my fruit bowl using the same gloves touching fruit and using the computer at checkout. I asked him that he should not use the same gloves for touching the food and working at cash register, and he remade the order for me. I like the bowls and smoothies here but their customer service and food safety needs a lot of improvement.

Dropped by on a Friday afternoon. We saw the sign that guides you towards Verve in an alleyway off Pine. Super easy to find imo. There isn't seating inside, but a few outdoor seats. Probably wouldn't be a place I'd park and go to, but if you're like us and live within walking distance/find yourself in Capitol Hill, I'd drop by if you're in the mood for a sweet, cold treat. Staff was super friendly. Got the uncrustabowl and good morning sunshine. We got the regular size and each bowl was $12.50. I'm not shocked, açaí bowl places are usually on the pricier side. It's definitely an indulgent treat. The uncrustabowl tasted exactly like an uncrustable with a healthy amount of peanut butter! Both bowls were yummy.
