Playa Bowls Littleton

Look at all these incredible smoothie bowl spots poppin off!

I recently proclaimed my love for Kona Bowls, and now I’m sharing the love with Playa Bowls Littleton because they’re equally as delicious and nutritious.

This adorable, HUGE space is bright and bold, and covered in beautiful artwork, surfboards and fun decor, that make it an awesome place to enjoy some healthy treats, whether you’re inside or outside.

Their menu is extremely extensive, so if you tend to be a bit indecisive, ask some of their incredible staff for recommendations. Every fruit, superfood, seed or green under the sun is listed SOMEWHERE on their menu, and the options feel limitless. They’ve literally got dozens of smoothie/juice options, in every flavor, every color you could ever dream up. If you’re trying to drink the rainbow, here are my most basic recs:

BLUE: The Booster Smoothie-banana, spirulina, vanilla protein, flax oil, peanut butter and cashew milk

PINK: Pink Pitaya Smoothie-pitaya, banana, pineapple, milk

GREEN: Green Room Juice-kale, apple, cucumber, mint, lemon

ORANGE: Beach Break Juice-pineapple, carrot, ginger, lemon

But the bowls. The bowls are where they really shine, if that wasn’t blatantly clear from their namesake. In addition to smoothie bowls, they’ve also got oatmeal bowls, chia bowls, banana bowls, and then different bases for their smoothie bowls, ranging from pitaya, coconut, greens or acai. And then you gotta choose toppings! Overwhelmed yet?

I think it’s an excellent issue to have!

My philosophy with smoothie bowls is always, the greener, the better, and so I opted for the Green Power bowl, full of kale, vanilla protein powder, banana, granola and almond butter, and it was truly perfect. We also got an Electric Mermaid because I simply couldn’t resist the name and the color. JUST LOOK AT IT!

The rich pitaya blend is overloaded with granola, pineapple, kiwi, mango and coconut and it’s an absolute DREAM.

We also tried some of their homemade power bites, which vary seasonally with flavors-just make sure to confirm which ones are vegan or gluten-free if it applies to you, because they’re absolutely delicious! Their yummy granola also has a GF option if you need it.

The staff is wonderful, the space is vibrant, it’s got a cute outdoor location, and it’s right in the heart of downtown Littleton. trust me, you’re not gonna want to miss this place!
