Super Fresh

Got a Build-Your-Own Acai bowl & it was one of the best I’ve had. There are tons of options for fruit and toppings. The banana and blueberries I chose were both super fresh!

Pros: Fresh Fruit, Customizable

Excellent açaí bowl

A bit expensive and they charge extra to switch the protein to plant protein but the portion was big. Açaí consistency was perfect. I will definitely go back.

Can't miss acai bowls, dragonfruit bowls, and more!

I've been here many times over the years, and they're ALWAYS good. Pura Vida, Coco Berry, and Dragonberry are some of my favorite bowls. Almost all the shakes, acai bowls, pitaya bowls, etc. have coconut milk. Some have cashew milk. All are clearly labeled.

Some items come with honey, but you can have agave instead. The only thing with dairy is Nutella (milk chocolate hazelnut butter). Be sure to ask for the vegan granola on your bowl.

Most bowls and shakes are just fruit. But a few have protein powder. If you order a protein shake or protein acai bowl and don't say anything, they'll put in whey protein. But if you ask, they'll use vegan protein powder. (Usually Orgain brand, but brands vary.)

Reasonable prices. Great location near NYU and Washington Square Park. Good for breakfast, lunch, or a hearty snack. Bowls are REALLY filling. You can get different bases: acai, pitaya/dragonfruit, coconut, just banana, or kale/banana. They're all good!

Pros: Nearly everything has a vegan option, Most items are already vegan, Tons of gluten-free options

Cons: For protein shakes, default is whey. Ask for vegan
