What Now confirmed with franchisees Richardo and Alexandra Arguello, a husband and wife team, that they are bringing two more Playa Bowls locations to the area.
The first of the two locations will appear in Coral Springs at 3111 N University Drive. In the strip development, they will near concepts like Tap 42 Craft Kitchen & Bar, I Heart Mac and Cheese and Pei Wei Asian Kitchen. Richardo shared that they are amidst construction now and are planning to open by the end of June or in early July.
The next unit, in West Boca, will be located at the corner of US 441 and Glades road, neighboring Boston Market, Brooklyn Bros Pizzeria and Benihana. An opening date for this unit is not available, and Richardo said that they have not begun construction on the unit yet.
The Arguello’s decision to franchise with the brand came after Alexandra had worked as an employee of a South Florida location. Over the course of a couple of years, starting when Alexandra began as an entry level employee, to now, the couple has opened a Davie location with plans to bring two more soon.
“The brand is just very cool. It brings surfing and the beach into a store. It’s like you’re beachside with the açai bowls and smoothies, which are really gaining popularity now,” said Alexandra.
