I come here because it reminds me of a spot from my hometown called Soul Bowls. I always get a Dragonberry Pitaya Bowl and customize the fruit topping to my liking, so I can’t speak for the other options, but they all look great! Prices range from $8 to $16, depending on add-ons. The atmosphere is really nice, and the surrounding Beltline area has the same free spirited vibe as the shop. Just writing this review and thinking about the taste of my bowl is making me want to go back right now!

First time at Play Bowls and it was a good experience. Was greeted by a friendly face and bright smile. She was helpful. The prices are a little higher but the portions match the price. The atmosphere inside the store is lively and fun. Music is uptempo and the vibes are pretty cool they have a nice variety and I might come back to try something else sometime.

I recently visited Playa Bowl with one of my mentors after a long walk on the Beltline, and it was a great experience! The staff had such a high-spirited energy, which made the atmosphere really welcoming. They offer so many healthy options, which I loved. I got a smoothie, and my mentor got an acai bowl, which I got to try—it was delicious! My smoothie was super tasty and kept me full from noon until around 5 p.m. I definitely recommend Playa Bowl and can't wait to go back. A solid spot for healthy eats!

I stopped in at the Playa Bowls – Beltline location, excited to finally try this franchise after a recommendation from a close friend/family member. I ordered the Coco Craze and added pineapple, kiwi, and gluten-free granola. Unfortunately, the experience didn’t meet my expectations. The base was too loose and soupy—I was hoping for a thicker, creamy sorbet-like texture. The kiwi was also mushy, which threw off the overall freshness I was expecting.
