Blue Bowl Superfoods
4150 McGowen St, Long Beach, CA
Crema's Take
“Blue Bowl is a refreshingly straightforward açai and smoothie spot where you pay one flat price for the size and customize with unlimited toppings at no extra charge, making it feel genuinely generous compared to typical health food spots. The staff, particularly praised for their thoughtful service, create a welcoming vibe that keeps people coming back even if they weren't originally açai bowl enthusiasts, and the value proposition of a substantial 24-ounce bowl for under $15 combined with creative signature options makes it an easy favorite for quick, nourishing visits with friends or family.”

Tried Blue Bowl at a different location before so I was familiar. It was decent. I am simple. Only 3 choices. If you want something refreshing an do not have a coconut allergy then Blue Bowl is a good choice. I did allergy and genetics testing and found that I can only have coconut water so the pitaya was the only base I could get. Customer service was fine..I really appreciate the young lady taking the time to explain which bases had coconut cream or water. A little pricey for a 12oz.
Amazing açaí spot! You can add anything without cost! you only pay for the size and that’s all. I absolutely loved my bowl and the staff was really sweet.
I want to give a huge shout out to Gigi, she provided such an amazing customer service experience today for me. I have never been to blue bowl before and she helped me decide on what type of smoothie I should order. Thank you so much Gigi, will be coming back to try a different flavor next time.
I am normally not a big fan of açai bowls, but this place is absolutely amazing and will be a regular stop whenever we are in the area. For less than $15, you can get a 24 ounce bowl and can choose from a large variety of different bases and toppings to customize your perfect bowl. We loved it so much that we went back twice in 2 days. We loved the açaí, mango passion and blue chia pudding for our base as well as the pumpkin flax granola. Their fruit is also very fresh and flavorful. They have a long line, but the workers are very efficient and the wait is not too long. They also provide complementary coffee, which was a nice and unexpected addition.
While visiting Blue bowl I got the lazy blue bowl. I felt like the amount of food they packed in the bowl represented great value but unfortunately it was too many different things going on. The lazy bowl has a large amount of components and sometimes they didn’t meld well together. I also didn’t love the base flavor of their açaí but thought the pitaya was solid. I feel like if you custom make a bowl to your specifications, it could be a more solid option. I would give my experience 3.75 stars but think it could be raised if I change my order.
