About Us

The Playa Bowls™ concept is the vision of founders Robert Giuliani & Abby Taylor, both Jersey Shore natives that grew up surfing the east coast and the world. They were inspired by chasing summer on surf trips to Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Puerto Rico, California & Hawaii. Almost every exotic surf town they visited offered their own unique version of an acai or pitaya bowl. They decided to recreate their favorite recipes with their own twist at home at the Jersey Shore.They started their business with a blender, a patio table, a fridge & a freezer and set up a makeshift pop up stand on the sidewalk in front of a local pizza shop. As word spread of this creative & intuitive pop up stand, more & more people stood in line on the side of Ocean Avenue to see what Playa Bowls was all about. Rob & Abby realized it was time to take their growing business to the next level. Six years later, here they are, sharing their story & passion at over 104 stores nationwide. Although their bowls were the beginning, many stores offer bowls, smoothies, poke bowls, shakes and more. Each store focuses on plant-based ECO bowls, local employment, 50% reclaimed or refurbished materials, LED lighting and partnerships with local refuse companies to use unique recycling solutions to increase efficiency and reduce waste. Playa Bowls is your slice of summer, anytime. Using the freshest, highest quality ingredients, we serve healthy, delicious açaí, pitaya, coconut bowls and smoothies with sustainability and community in mind. Born on the beach and built for the globe, we’re your morning booster and your lunch break dream; your quick dinner fix and the perfect nightcap. We can’t wait to see you in Pineappleland!
