Berries & Bowls, a superfood cafe, is now open at 4961 Elm Street, in the Shoppes of Bethesda. This was for many years the home of Spring Mill Bread Co. Berries & Bowls features fresh fruit bowls, juices and smoothies, and has an existing location in the Kentlands area of Gaithersburg.
Eye-catching sign.
ReplyDeleteNo doubt I'm an old fart, but it amazes me that there is a sustainable business model involved in charging $8-12.50 for pureeing some ingredients in a blender, mashing avocado on a piece of toast, or throwing together a mix of ingredients and serving them in a bowl. I can afford these prices, but I would never waste my money buying a meal that I could prepare much more cheaply at home, and without the risk of being infected with the Delta variant. Bethesda is full of lazy Lotus Eaters.
ReplyDeleteI completely agree with 9:48 AM. I would never pay that crazy amount of money for this. I give this place 6 months to a year, tops.

ReplyDeleteNever under estimate the do-gooders -they'll go to their graves drowning in this slush
and swear it prolonged their lives.
@6:08 PM: That's so true. The only way this place survives is if it gets the routine after-workout crowd from SoulCycle or Pure Barre. I just don't see a family of 4 walking in of the street and plunking down 50-60 dollars on fruit bowls.
