Crema's Take

Tucked near Wallis Sands Beach, Kooks is a seasonal spot that's become famous for Instagram-worthy smoothie bowls and açaí creations that live up to the hype, with thoughtfully crafted details like nut-free granola options. The real magic is in the vibe: a breezy beach bar atmosphere with stellar outdoor seating that's perfect for lingering over a leisurely breakfast or lunch with friends and family, especially on those rare sunny New England days. Just arrive with realistic expectations about portion sizes and note that their creative drinks shine brighter than their standard cocktails.

This is a really fun place. Great food and drinks and a great outdoor seating area where you can bask in the sunshine. The waitstaff was outstanding!! It is seasonal so check to see if it's open before you go.

Such a good spot for fresh smoothie bowls! Kinda pricey for their size, but so so delicious and gorgeous presentation. The outdoor seating is great, and the granola is nut-free!

Wow. Was at Wallis Sands Beach and mentioned how I was craving an açaí bowl….Kooks couldn’t have been more convenient. This bowl was DREAMY. I will truly crave this until I can get back out here again! Get the passion fruit bowl!! No disappointment here. Guacamole and chips were also fresh and delicious! Loved this place. Had an amazing server as well who was extremely nice.

It's a nice atmosphere and looks a really inviting place after a day on the beach. The diet cokes were fine but the margaritas tasted of lime juice and not much else (apart from plenty of ice).
