Playa Bowls, the celebrated brand known for its vibrant açaí, pitaya, and coconut bowls, is set to open its first Houston-area location at 32858-33030 FM 2978 #1400, Magnolia, TX 77354, thanks to the entrepreneurial efforts of brothers Pratik, Alpesh, and Hanish Patel.
“This will be our first time doing business together, but it was the easiest decision for us three,” shared Pratik Patel, who emphasized the family’s enthusiasm for the venture. “We have always wanted to work together, and Playa Bowls stood out from the very beginning.”
The Patels’ affinity for Playa Bowls began with a memorable visit to a New Jersey location years ago. “We immediately fell in love with it,” Patel recalled. “Bringing Playa Bowls to Houston for us was exciting because it provides a healthier, fresh, great quality, and delicious açaí, pitaya, coconut bowls and smoothies. We cannot wait till our local Houstonians get a chance to finally experience a Playa Bowl!”
According to the permit filed for the Magnolia location, the project will involve a remodel of a 1,500-square-foot space at an estimated cost of $240,000.
While this is their first Playa Bowls location, the Patels are already looking ahead to the future. “This will be our first location, and we are planning to expand and open additional locations throughout Houston,” Patel confirmed.
Playa Bowls’ arrival in Magnolia marks the beginning of what the Patels hope will be a fruitful expansion across the city, providing Houstonians with the refreshing, high-quality bowls and smoothies that first captivated them years ago.
Construction is already underway with plans to open in mid-March 2025.
