Playa Bowls

“I stopped by Playa Bowls at Penn Station and tried the "Green Room" juice with kale, cucumber, green apple, and lemon (I skipped the mint, not a fan) made fresh in front of me. The juice was refreshingly crisp, perfectly balanced with a prominent flavor of cucumber (which I love), and it was just what I needed to recharge. The location is bright, spotless with a kind and helping staff that's constantly on the move crafting fresh, healthy orders with speed and care. Whether you're looking for a quick pick-up or a wholesome takeout option, Playa Bowls definitely delivers. It leans toward the sweet side of taste (with a great variety of vegetables and fruits) which is a guaranteed fresh and healthy treat! With a wide range of kosher and vegetarian-friendly choices, all customizable, it's a spot worth returning to and they also have multiple locations all across the City. If you're looking for a healthy option Playa Bowls is the one for you!”
