Blenders and Bowls

Love the Beach Bowl! I have been here twice and the service is quick even when they get busy and everything on the menu is healthy and delicious!

This place is delish! I had The Green Bowl after a yoga class and it was perfect. If you are looking for something super healthy and tasty this is the place. I was very happy with the flavors.

WOW. Blenders and bowls was my first time experiencing an acai bowl and it did not disappoint. The Chill Berry included all my favorite fruit and the combination of my acai bowl made me sigh out of satisfaction. I highly recommend coming here. Not only is it delicious, but it’s also very healthy.
Location wise, it was a little difficult trying to find parking.

The dragon fruit bowl is my favorite item on the menu.

It turns out you can find a vegan, soy free breakfast while traveling. Blenders and bowls certainly helped us fuel up for the day.
To be clear, this shop is located inside a yoga studio. When we arrived, the place was mobbed with people just camping at tables. Most of them didn’t have food or a beverage, they were just mooching wifi.
We sat outside and that part sucked because it was a little cold. Still, the food was prepped nicely and the staff was pleasant. It was a tad pricey.
I’m happy we got to eat here but the attitude of some of the patrons definitely detracted from the experience.

I love this place. It is a little pricey. However, I’ve tasted quite a few acai bowls in my time I can say for a fact this is by far your best bet in Austin. The smoothie mixture is so icy and thick. There are so many unique combinations of toppings, and the staff is willing to mix anything additional!

Had the Paradise bowl the first time here, pretty tasty. Very nutritious right before my morning work out, if I’m in the area again and need a quick healthy breakfast… I’ll be coming back

I was in Austin for a few days, and it was comforting finding something healthy and yummy near my hotel. Definitely would go there again next time.

Super yummy, I just wish they were less expensive.
The acai bowls are amazing and fresh. I like to splurge every now and then after a hard workout and order one. They are flavorful and refreshing and come topped with fruit and honey.
I’ve never had the smoothies there as the bowls are just too good to pass up!

While the color of any strawberry smoothie is ruined when you add spinach the taste was above par!
You’d think sharing the space with a yoga studio makes rent less but I’d say all the items are about a dollar overpriced. I’ll forgive that because Phil was eager and helpful in his drink and sightseeing recommendations

They have the best açai bowls I’ve ever had. During my time in Austin, I tried the «Sesher» and «Chill Berry» bowls and they were both amazing. The ingredients were excellent, the portions were big (this is Texas, after all!), and the açai was thick. I’ve tried bowls from many places in NYC and they always are way too melted as soon as they come out. It’s almost like soup! I hope this place opens a branch there soon!
Additionally, the staff is fun to chat with and the other customers are also nice. Probably because many of them has just had a yoga class!
Definitely try this place if you’re in Austin!

Quick tips: Come for the yoga, stay for the yogurt. They have wanderlust yoga right next door. They cut up the fresh fruit, which I love.
Food: My husband got the OG (acai with honey and apple juice, and other goodies topped with strawberries and bananas. Was delicious. got the Greek yogurt bowl (a special called the Lauren) with green yogurt, chocolate vega protein powder granola, fruit and other delicious ingredients. Good, high quality ingredients. You really feel like you are starting your day off right. A little sour from the yogurt (and I topped mine with green apples) but the honey leaves a sweet note on your palette.
Difference in whey protein powder vs vega? Whey is dairy and vega is plant based.
Service: Friendly helpful service.
Ambiance: Casual café. A place where you look around and everyone is happy, healthy (and skinny!).

It’s been nine days with no coffee. Not sure if I can make it through another day without. Luckily Blenders and Bowls caters to people who like to stick to a healthier start to their day. I got a fruit/​acai/​hemp granola bowl here for breakfast and loved it.
Take note, it’s inside Wanderlust yoga and right in the midst of downtown, which means that if you don’t come before 8am, and you’re driving a car, you’re going to pay for parking. Luckily I got in at 7:30am (yay!)
Fresh ingredients with plenty of choices on the menu… a lot of acai blender bowls and smoothies too. There is a nice clean café area with metal stools and tables to sit while you sip or scoop. Not the coziest seats, but they work.
Nice place overall; happy it’s around and open so early for a healthy start to the day. Yum!

A little disappointed that their help pages advertises fresh juice but they no longer juice. I walked to the location just for juice. The lady kindly apologized and offereded to make me a smoothie!
I got the healthy hulk– I wanted to replicate a smoothie I have on a regular basis in Houston at my favorite place Big & Juicy called grounded green. The lady let me substitute a lot of the ingredients and was so nice about it. Their prices are great to, they only offer one size but my smoothie was under 8 dollars! So I loved it even more!
I planned to take a class at the yoga studio the next morning and try another smoothie but 6^th street got the best of me the night before! Will try a practice on my next Austin visit!

Trendy juice bar that shares a space w/​a Yoga Studio. Limited, metered, downtown street parking so be forewarned.
Lots of healthy very tasty options, including the «bowl» I decided on after much debate.
Here’s how this business describes their bowls: Each one of our bowls is specially crafted to highlight the unique flavor of açaí. These bowls pack an unreal amount of antioxidants leaving you simply satisfied and ready to tackle your day! Be warned, these bowls are addicting. You can also opt for gluten free or vegan.
I ordered the SMALL Chill Berry $ 7.75 (Ouch!!!), with blended ice, Organic açaí, Strawberry, Banana, Apple juice & topped w/​Hemp granola, Strawberries, Blueberries, Goji berries & Round rock honey.
They prepared the order quickly since they had one young lady cashiering & another one making my bowl. All of the ladies were dressed in yoga attire, which was a little off putting, but not seriously inappropriate considering. Assume they were also employed @ the yoga studio.
Two reasons this place did not get a 5: 1) price point 2) narrow ingredient selection. Other than that, super yummy & refreshing.

We were on the hunt for a good acai bowl place since Houston is disappointing and we wanted to remember Hawaii. Found this place through Unilocal but surprised to find it in a yoga studio. I ordered the OG acai bowl and it was probably the best I’ve had so far in Texas in comparison to Hawaii. It took awhile for them to make it but probably because they cut up fresh fruit to order. It was very refreshing to have on a hot day. I wish they would expand to my yoga studio in Houston!
However it can be pretty pricy for a bowl, I got a small size for $ 7 while the large go for $ 9. This is definitely a splurge snack!

After a night out on 6^th street, we all needed a detox trip here. It is located inside Wanderlust Yoga btw.
I opted to try a bowl to try something different. It’s a acai berry base that’s like a thick frozen smoothie. in between a smoothie and a sorbet in consistency. It’s topped with fruit. Mine was called something with beach and had mango/​coconut water in the case, and topped with fresh strawberries, blueberries, coconut flakes, and granola. I was stuffed about ¾ of the way in with the small.
My brother really liked his mango smoothie also.
Taking some stars off because it’s ridic overpriced. My bowl was over $ 8 and that was for the small. The larges were all $ 10 something. The smoothies start at $ 6. While everything was fresh and filling, it is definitely pricey. Also, it took a while to come.

I guess it’s the yoga high, but this place just does not deserve almost 5 stars!
–Small portions. The large is barely a decent bowl size and even then, the 16 oz. cup was not even filled to the top. The actual acai smoothie almost reached the halfway point and the rest was just granola.
–Ridiculously high prices. More than $ 10 for most of their bowls?! That’s just madness. Plus tax and the «recommended» 20% tip, you’re out $ 13 for a snack.
–Not healthy at all. I’ll happily pay $ 9 for a green juice at Juiceland. But this stuff just isn’t good for you. The liquid in most bowls is apple juice, and it’s just the average, from-​concentrate kind. The granola is really sweet and then they pour honey on top of everything. Concentrate juice, plus frozen fruit, plus granola, plus tons of honey is just sugar, sugar, sugar as my grandmother would say.
–Usual Austin attitude, but what’s new.
–No parking and slow. It’s downtown, I know, but even at 11 am on a Tuesday we had to walk four blocks and pay for parking. It’s not their fault, just not worth the hassle.
Head to Juiceland for a «Brazilian Kisses» acai smoothie (16 oz. /​/​$ 4.95) or Mr. Natural’s «Sambazon» acai smoothie (16 oz. /​/​$ 4.75) instead.

1 star lost over rude customer service. I was standing in line, and she allowed her friend to cut in front of me, as if my time didn’t matter. I may not be a yoga person, but I’m still a paying customer. The comment was «oh I need to check my friend out, cause she has a class to attend. Excuse us.» I mean. I guess.
Another star left for concept. Maybe I’m not into natural foods enough to get what I paid for. $ 8 for a small bowl of fruit, granola and Sherbet. Was it good? Yeah. I mean that combo usually is. Was it worth the money spent? Not really to me. I guess my expectations were slightly higher. Or maybe I played it too safe with my selection of the Berry Chill. It’s a refreshing treat for downtown, so when customer service gets better, it would be a 4 star for me.

I stopped by Blenders and Bowls after work one day because I was craving an acai bowl. I got the Beach Bowl and it was really good! It is definitely the best acai bowl I’ve had in Austin. It had the perfect consistency and not too soupy like other places. It’s $ 8 for a small and $ 10 for a large but servings are pretty small.
Location is great if you’re in the area or if you live downtown. Otherwise, finding parking is difficult.
