OAKBERRY ACAI - 2910 BROADWAY, ASTORIA, NY 11106
Discovering Oakberry Açai in Astoria, Queens
I recently visited this charming spot on a day when the sun was blazing, and I was in desperate need of something to cool me down. Located right on Broadway, in Astoria, Queens, just minutes away from the N&W subway lines, Oakberry Açai is perfectly situated for a quick and delicious stop.
The Atmosphere and Location
Oakberry Açai is a quaint and inviting spot that exudes a warm, welcoming vibe, super clean, AC pumpin and chill location. The cutie pie workers were out front handing out samples same time I arrived, came in super clutch! As soon as you step inside, you’re greeted by the sweet aroma of fresh açai and a menu bursting with options. The location is also ideal beyond it being so close to a hot spot train location—it’s right across the street from Athens Square Park, a place that holds a lot of nostalgic value for me from my childhood. After grabbing your açai bowl or smoothie, you can take a leisurely stroll over to the park, find a bench, and enjoy your treat while people-watching or simply soaking up the sun. It’s the perfect spot to sit, gaze, and devour!
What’s on the Menu?
Oakberry Açai specializes in authentic Brazilian açai bowls and smoothies. They also offer immune booster shots, kombucha, and even sherbet, which I was tempted to try but managed to resist—this time! What makes Oakberry stand out is the level of customization they offer. Everything is made to order, and you can personalize your bowl or smoothie with a variety of toppings. The gentleman at the counter mentioned the words "endless toppings," and I knew I was in the right place. I got their Build your own Acai bowl, which in retrospect is actually a build your own ‘cup’ but that’s okay! Comes in 3 sizes, Classic (12 oz), the Works (16 oz) and the Oak (24 oz). We got the Works (16 oz).
Here’s what I ended up choosing for my açai bowl:
Peanut Butter 🥜: Adds a rich, creamy texture that perfectly complements the açai.
Coconut Flakes 🥥: A light and tropical addition that gives a nice crunch.
Cacao Nibs 🍫: A healthy chocolatey twist that brings a bit of bitterness to balance the sweetness.
Granola 🤎: A classic topping that adds satisfying crunch and heartiness.
Banana and Strawberries 🍌🍓: Fresh fruit to enhance the açai’s natural flavors.
Honey and Chia Seeds 🍯: A drizzle of honey for sweetness and chia seeds for added nutrition.
