Playa Bowls Opening Soon In Newtown

NEWTOWN, PA — Playa Bowls, a smoothie bowl shop, is close to opening its newest shop in Newtown. Company representatives expect it to open as soon as this month, with a specific date to be announced.

The Newtown location, which will be in the Village at Newtown Shopping Center, will be the second in Bucks County. There is a Playa Bowls on W. Court Street in Doylestown.

Playa Bowls opened its first location five years ago in the Jersey Shore town of Belmar by Robert Giuliani and Abby Taylor. The pair was inspired by surf trips to Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Puerto Rico, California and 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," according to the website.

The chain currently operates more than 60 stores.
