This place has a sign that gives you ideas of what to do while you wait for your food. Ask the person next to you how their day is going, think of 5 things you’re grateful for, text someone you love and tell them why you love them, and read a book. I like that they gave me these ideas. If you plan on going here, I wanted to share a few ideas as well. You can try to touch your nose with your tongue. You can twiddle your thumbs. This one is my favorite, you can enter a thumb and pinkie war with yourself and see if David can beat Goliath. If you decide to do this one, I’d suggest using them both at full strength even if you have a favorite. This can be the toughest part, but you want it to be a fair fight, without the influence of your mind, which may not be possible. Still it’s worth trying, imagine if you wanted your pinkie to win and it did! It was somehow able to defy all the odds! I love a good underdog story. Just be careful, it’s not worth breaking your pinkie over, trust me. Also if you decide to twiddle your thumbs before the thumb and pinkie war, just remember to twiddle your pinkies before battle as well. Ideally, both of them are equally warmed up before the fight. Anyway, feel free to use any of these ideas to pass the time while you wait for your food here. I got the hippie bowl, it tasted super healthy.

Wanted a tangy blueberry smoothie, which they didn’t have on the menu, so the man at the counter assisted me with making a custom smoothie. I just had him use the ingredients I usually use at home. Strawberries, blueberries, Greek yogurt, coconut water, lemon, honey. Delicious!

Bare bowls has some of the best acai bowls I have ever had. The granola is delicious and the presentation of the bowls are simply beautiful. You can make changes or additions to any bowl you want. The place is well lit and makes for a good Instagram opportunity.

Probably the best acai bowl in town. The way the worker was able to accommodate my allergy requests and make the acai bowl still taste great was amazing. Definitely will be back for more.

Craving acai bowl for brunch and this place did not disappoint! Fair warning though their menu is very extensive with more options than I needed. Be aware also of the bowls with nuts if you have nut allergy but they do have nut free options. They mix fruit and ingredients into their acai too. Not much space to sit inside. We took ours to go. The larger size is almost $20 but it filled me for lunch and didn’t have to feel guilty for overeating. Also there’s a sign warning you your order will take a while because they need to make everything. Don’t come here if you’re in a huge hurry but I saw you can order ahead and come pick up.

Undecided if I like these better than vitality bowls but once I decide one of them will get 5 stars. I like the rincon bowl here and my wife likes the bdoml bowl. The stanford bowl is good. The staff seems friendly but also a bit cold or maybe forced? Compared to the warm service feeling you’d want in a restaurant. That being said I did feel a bit more comfortable inside of vitality bowls, so for now they would be my preference.

It was my second time coming to Barebowls to grab a smoothie for me and my family after my morning workout. Everything on the menu looked good but what caught my eye was the add ons and the ingredients they used. The add ons included collagen, mct oil, plant protein option, chlorella, and so many other stuff that I rarely see in other acai shops in town.
As to their price, it was definitely higher than other places but I think it makes sense because the lady in the front explained to me how they use local vendors and mostly organic stuff.
Overall definitely will be back for the acai bowl and smoothie.

This place has the best smoothies!!
I love the atmosphere here too. Chill, lots of seats. Tons of books about startups and entrepreneurship. Super cool.
Definitely a place to come if you want a healthy breakfast and some startup inspiration.

Meh, I’d give it more of a 3.5 stars, nothing was wrong just wasn’t impressed. We had a pretty long wait to order and get our bowls (maybe they were short staffed) and the bowls themselves were good but not a favorite. I also personally didn’t enjoy their granola topping as it was quite cinnamony (couldn’t quite put my tastebuds on the exact flavor, but it was relatively strong in seasoning for granola) some people may like that but personally I just didn’t find that it went well with the rest of the bowl and just took over.

I ordered chia pudding bowl and added granola, banana, strawberries with a little honey and the name of my smoothie was PB Dreamin’. It was so delicious and filling. The only thing I wish I brought was my own straw because my paper straw fell apart but I’ll remember to do that next time I go there. ☺️
