Bowl’d

Bowl’d is delicious. Love that they have the «kid’s» size (16 oz) because it’s the perfect amount for me! Also love that you have the option between sweetened and unsweetened acai. They put a generous amount of toppings on all the bowls. The vibe is natural & airy & super SLO. Definitely check it out if you’re in the area!

Love this place! I wish there were more places like this where I live. I enjoyed a nice cold glass of Ginger kombucha. My friend ordered a mix of the Lavender and another sweet-​tasting one. The staff was really nice and let us sample flavors before ordering. She also made herself available to answer any questions. Overall, for those that love hippy food like Kombucha, THIS is your spot. I will definitely be stopping by when I come back through SLO.

Love love love this place! Being from SF I’ve been loving & eating this food for years and am so stoked to see it catching on everywhere because it is such a yummy & nutritious meal! Shout out to Brandon who works there — amazing service– so friendly & helpful — he is the best! Be sure to try out some of their kombucha on tap (so many great flavors) — my favorite is the ginger sarsaparilla — side note — you can even get your kombucha to go in a growler and keep bringing it back for refills (so cool!) be sure to check this sweet spot out and try one of their amazing bowls (hella choices too!) —— great staff, food, and atmosphere!

Super delicious! We checked this place out when we visited SLO (we both went to Cal Poly) and we are super glad we did. The ingredients were very fresh and the portions were generous. The kids size is a good amount. The only thing I would recommend is for them to open earlier. Acai bowls are great for breakfast and 9 am was just a bit late. If they opened at 7 or 7:30, that would be awesome. All in all, I definitely recommend this place and wish it had been around when I went to school.

The hubs and our fury babies decided to do a pit stop in one of our faves SLO, before heading home. Plus after driving 3 hrs from The Bay our butts needed a break and our legs needed a good stretch.
After walking a few blocks on Higuera, we found ourselves in front of a cute store that had wonderful outdoor space for our fury babies.
This restaurant is super hip and clean. While waiting for our drinks the servers gave us samples of their super yummy kombucha teas, in which they have multiple flavors…
If you stop in, be sure to order the lavender tea… it’s super refreshing.
Anyway, I ordered the mango smoothie which was amazingly fresh. It’s not like the smoothies you get at Jamba, this smoothie was thick and not overly fruity. I loved watching the workers grab a whole fresh fruit, put it in the blender then, bam there was my smoothie. Made from FRESH, fresh fruit!
If we ever are craving a fresh fruit smoothie, we will definitely be back to Bowl’d. Yummmm-​O!

I haven’t had an acai (ah-​sah-​yee) bowl in forever! And there aren’t too many places back in SF/​SJ that have them either. I usually go to Power Bowl in SJ because it’s conveniently located near campus. But this was soooo much better than any acai bowl I’ve had!
I ordered the San Luis Obisbowl (what a clever name, haha) which had banana, strawberry, blueberries and granola as toppings. There were supposed to be coconut flakes, honey, and chia seeds added onto it as well but I’m not a fan of any of those. The honey makes acai bowls extremely sweet and I don’t like that. Good thing they gave me the option of changing it up! The kids size was the perfect size for sharing. We wanted to have room to try all the other places in the area. The acai bowl was yummy. It wasn’t frozen, was very smooth, and wasn’t too sweet. They’re definitely a lot more generous with their toppings compared to Power Bowl which is about the same price.
They have a variety of options and even serve coffee, as well as fruit smoothies. The bathroom key is located on one of the counters (it’s a huge spoon labeled men/women’s). Tons of chairs to sit on to enjoy your acai bowls!
Would go again if I’m in the area :)

Just arrived in San Luis obispo and was looking for something refreshing to nom on. Came across this spot for a quick healthier snack. It seemed like a smaller spot that had a great selection of acai bowls but we had to choose the first item on the menu… The San Luis obisbowl. There were several wooden tables and a booth to sit at to enjoy your creamy delights.
The order took like ten minutes to come out and I was amazed by the quality of it. Some blue berries, banana slices, strawberry slices, acai berry blend sprinkled with granola. It cost like
$ 5 for the smallest idea but we still managed to split it among two people.
Overall a very sootheing snack, somethin to get the appetite up. Better than the ones back in home, San Jose. Come here for a healthier choice snack! You won’t be disappointed!

GOD DAMN are these places overpriced. $ 10 ish for a bowl of blended acai and some fruit? CRAZY! They should be no more than $ 6 for a regular size and $ 3 for the kids. These places rip you off and make a killing.
Anyways, it was alright. I’ve had my fair share of these bowl things with all different «blends”/bases, and honestly they all taste exactly the same. So it doesn’t really matter which one you get or what is in it. It’ll taste the same! Bowl’d is ehh, not bad but nothing better than your average bowl. The regular is kinda enough for two people for a snack.
Friendly staff, cool chill sitting area out front, but the fruit fly problem inside is a bit ridiculous. Invest in something to get rid of them to make for a more pleasant experience.
All in all, not worth a trek, but if you are downtown and want a nice healthy snack on a warm day, why not?

I needed a quick healthy breakfast before leaving slo from a fun filled weekend! This place is great! I got the green acai bowl (the big size) and it was super super filling! Almost could have gotten a kids size! The staff was super friendly and helpful when it came to ordering and conversing. Loved it! Chico needs something like this! Oh and the décor is simple and lovely! Very clean and well organized!

Deliciously light snack on a hot summer day.
Ordered the Brazilian bowl for $ 8.95. Great consistency and wasn’t overly sweet. Berries and granola added texture. Wished they had other berries to go w/​it. This appeared to be the only item that came in 1 size. Saw the bowls others ordered and they looked amazing; colorful and packed w/​all sorts of things from kiwi to coconut shavings.

Get a Protien Bow! It’s just as tasty, and WAY more healthy than Fozen Yogurt, and entirely lactose free. The fruit is fresh.
I’m a hard-​core protienavore (Firestone TriTip and the rest), and I am crazy over the fare from this establishment. Maybe the owners are atoning for all of the Bratwurst?
They are very environmentally conscious, providing 100% compostable food service to go, or ceramics for eating in.
I now have a new, favorite spot for tasty, savory healthy meals.

Best Acai Bowls in town!
The consistency and flavor of the acai base is always perfect, not too runny or thick.
I always get the san luis obispo bowl, which is really simple, and ideal on a hot summer day.
The layout of the place is also lovely, great place to grab a light lunch with friends!

Really good! It’s filling and healthy. A bit expensive, but the quality is good. Would be nice for them to have a size in between kids and reg!

Beautiful place, nice and new layout. Great location and seems like tons of options, but that’s also what made me suspect.
The options seem too plenty in that I don’t believe that they have perfected the specific ingredients for each bowl, because the bowl that I ordered, which was half beat and half açai was not very pleasant.
The consistency of the bowl was very mushy like mashed potatoes and did not retain very much sweetness from the açai whatsoever.
I thoroughly enjoyed the idea of eating a half beet half açai bowl for the health benefits etc. but I was displeased with its consistency and ended up only eating the top part as well as the granola and basically throwing away ¾ of the bowl.
I may check it out again but would need to express this visit w staff and hope the customer service is on point in fixing the issue.

Really delicious fruit bowls with some kind of acai berry sorbet type thing. Healthy and tasty! Pretty decent amount for the price, they have regular and kids size bowls right now and soon might be starting half sizes too!
The cashier wasn’t very clear in explaining the pitaya (dragonfruit?) substitution option, and the menu doesn’t make it too clear either. But apparently one can sub the acai with pitaya (cannot add pitaya as an additional or alternative topping!).
Very cali.

Acai in downtown SLO is a must. SO glad Bowl’d could make it to the scene.
Shared a kids’ size acai bowl with my friend, and we absolutely enjoyed their fresh and delicious ingredients. However, being the acai devotee that I am after living in San Diego during college, I wouldn’t say that Bowl’d is the best I’ve ever had.
Sure they’ll be a great chain, since it seems like they’re going in that direction… but it’s portion’d out to too small amounts, not as personable as other local acai joints, and cost a pretty penny given the small portions you’re getting. Don’t get me wrong – the acai itself was delicious, but it’s like the «Pinkberry» version compared to the Yogurtland spots. It’s overpriced and made with limited ingredients, but for me… it’s lacking the proper pricing and relatable customer service I would get at my favorite acai places by the beach in San Diego. We also stopped by Neighborhood closer to Cal Poly, and all agreed that it was much yummier, better bang for our buck, and chill-​er in scene.
They have a restroom in the back and TONS of seating. So it’s great for college students looking for a place to treat their sweet tooth after dinner or a night in the town. They also have a bit of a fly problem going on, but I noticed that (as an out of towner here during a road trip) many parts of SLO had fly problems. Maybe it’s a summer thing, but we decided to eat outside in their «patio» area because of the stagnant flies.
I loved their airy and open concept with the décor and «eco-​friendly/​surfer» ambiance. And there was an especially friendly Bowl’d representative who told us that she highly recommends visiting the Mission Plaza live music nights, so shoutout to her! We loved your great service :)

Tasty and affordable acai bowls in downtown SLO. Love the modern, crisp interior of the store. Love the noticeably fresh fruit in their bowls. Smoothie base, though, is a bit bland. But that’s where the fruit toppings shine. Best of all, prices are lower than nearby alternatives. *cough* Sally Loos *cough* Acai bowls in general though, are pretty pricey.

I have had many açai bowls in slo and San Diego alike and this place by far exceeds anything I have had. They have a ton of options, including a ton of amazing premade bowls, as well as many add ins and toppings. I got the San Luis Obispbowl and was very impressed. Great new addition to SLO.

Excellent bowls with a wide variety! Hemp bowl has been my favorite. The hemp milk is a tasty touch. Looking forward to trying each one.
Plus, I really enjoy the name Bowl’d and the creativity behind the whole establishment. It’s invigorating just stepping into the building – something downtown SLO lacks.

The bowls are delicious! Customer service is great! Love the decorations! There’s an awesome selection here!
