every time my boyfriend and I come in here The staff is so judgmental and rude. I noticed that when we do decide to tip, they give our bowls a big filling, but whenever we do not tip, they give us 90% granola and only 10% of the base. Usually, I don't say anything, but today I did nicely. and they all just stared at me like I was crazy and gave me judgmental rude looks. when we ordered, the girl didn't even speak to us and as soon as we paid, she just walked away without saying anything. there was at least eight girls working, and only one other person in the store and only one of the girls responded to me and scooped some more of the base into a bowl and gave it to me. Unfortunate because their food is so good. But the staff is all a bunch of college mean girls.

The girls working behind the counter were very attentive to our questions and us wanting to sample different things. They explained all of their options in detail and made it very easy to make a choice. The bulls were absolutely amazing!

Heard about this place back in VA, but was in PA for business and was needing something post workout!! Can’t recall the young lady’s name that was sooo patient with all my questions… but i decided on the Green bowl with a few modifications!! Absolutely delicious, 2nd time I tired the 1/2 Açaí and green… was a little too sweet for me, but tasty nonetheless!

Cute little place with delicious, refreshing bowls. I love getting these when I want something light but filling for lunch. I've had many different bowls that were all amazing and if you don't like any off the menu you can always make a custom bowl!

first time trying any açaí bowl and I loved it! The employee at the register was super helpful and patient, and answered all my questions! I even got to sample the açaí and pitaya bases. Açaí is definitely on the sweeter side while pitaya is less sweet. I’m a huge fan of their açaí base! The decorations inside are so cute! They have plenty of seating and some fun board games too! There’s outdoor seating available as well. The bowls were ready quickly. They are still being very careful with covid guidelines. They will also have poke bowls during the school year! I’m looking forward to coming back here soon 😋
