Naples continues to welcome businesses that align beautifully with our active, outdoor-focused lifestyle, and
Playa Bowls is a natural fit. Located in the Galleria Shops along Vanderbilt Beach Road, this vibrant bowl and smoothie spot brings a fresh, coastal-inspired approach to healthy eating that feels right at home in Southwest Florida. This restaurant has taken over the space formerly occupied by Nautical Bowls.
Founded on a love for surf culture, community, and clean ingredients, Playa Bowls has grown into a nationally recognized brand while maintaining a laid-back, beachy feel. Their Naples location carries that same energy - bright, upbeat, and centered around food that makes you feel good long after you’ve finished your bowl.
What You’ll Find on the Menu
Playa Bowls is best known for its wide variety of fruit-based bowls, built on nutrient-rich foundations like acai, pitaya (dragon fruit), coconut, banana, mango, and green blends. Each bowl is layered with fresh fruit, granola, seeds, nut butters, and drizzles that strike a balance between indulgent and wholesome.
Beyond bowls, the menu also includes smoothies, cold-pressed juices, and refreshing add-ons that can be customized to suit individual tastes and dietary preferences. Whether you’re fueling up after a workout, grabbing a quick breakfast, or looking for a lighter afternoon option, Playa Bowls offers flexibility without sacrificing flavor.
A Lifestyle Fit for Naples
What makes Playa Bowls especially appealing is how seamlessly it fits into the Naples lifestyle. It’s casual and approachable, yet intentional about quality. It’s a place where health-conscious locals, families, seasonal residents, and visitors all feel comfortable stopping in, whether they’re coming from the beach, the gym, or a busy day of errands.
The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, making it just as easy to grab something to go as it is to linger and enjoy your bowl with friends.
Why It’s a Welcome Addition
Playa Bowls adds another strong option to Naples’ growing wellness and fast-casual dining scene. It reflects a broader shift toward businesses that support balanced living—fresh food, simple ingredients, and a sense of community - while still delivering something fun and flavorful.
