One of the best NYC Acai Bowl chains - The Baya Bar.

If you are looking for a healthy way to satisfy your sweet tooth on your day near SoHo in Nolita, look no further. Baya Bar surpasses every expectation I have for an acai bowl restaurant. Their menu consists of juices, boosters, smoothies and bowls. The smoothies are the perfect way of getting your kids key nutrients disguised as a yummy treat, and there are so many bowl options that you will find something for the whole family. They even have the bowl size specially designed to include many toppings. Toppings offered include almost every fruit you can think of, coconut flakes, cocoa nibs, goji berries, bee pollen and more. If you are interested in their selection there is a picture of the in-store menu attached and the website is linked below. No matter which base and toppings you select, each bowl is gorgeous, so not even your kids will be mad about eating fruit. 

This location has a barstool with a couple of chairs but is currently taken out only due to COVID, so I recommend utilizing the picnic tables at DeSalvios Playground. This is the perfect energizer for a long day running around the playground and city. If you want to plan ahead to grab and go on your way to your next destination there is an order online option, though I still recommend taking your kids in if they want to see how cute the inside of the shop is.
