Viva Acai in Kensington and Chelsea

Their acai bowl is the best. Very friendly and welcoming staff. I only wish we had one in Oxford too.

Después de probar uno de sus buenos jugos, un miembro del personal fue a tomar la tabla afuera alrededor de las 17. 15 . . . y ella simplemente tiró algunas latas de refrescos en el piso teniendo frente a ella un cubo de basura. Preguntado por qué? Y su respuesta brutal y grosera. . No soy sirviente de los demás. . . . no volveré nunca a este lugar

I love açai bowls but I didn’t quite enjoy this one sadly. First of all it took 20 minutes for the lady to make it as she washed the mixer and prepared a whole batch of açai after I walked in. Then, each topping comes at an extra price but the amount she put on my bowl is absolutely ridiculous (see pic) I paid £10.05 for a disappointing açai bowl and really wished for her to put more toppings on it.

Yumm yumm yumm. Estaba super contento con mi tazón, ¡fruta tan sabrosa y fresca! El servicio fue genial! Definitivamente volveremos!

. Volveremos de nuevo. Muy buen lugar para familias, incluidos bebés. El personal muy amable. A 15 minutos del aeropuerto.

My Acai bowl was fresh and delicious, I am really happy I stopped by. The owner was friendly and helpful and recommended some toppings that I would not have thought of, consequently I got to try something new and was very glad I did. It is also really well placed, literally less than a minute from Gloucester Road underground station. Next time I'm down that way, I will make a point to have another, the serving is large, fresh, healthy and delicious. Recommend without hesitation.

Over priced. Extremely unwelcoming and unfriendly staff. Took 20 mins to make a smoothie. 5 people walked out whilst we were in there due to rude staff.

DISAPPOINTING - SO FAR FROM REAL AÇAI !!! REALLY NOT WHAT AÇAI IS SUPPOSED TO BE ... AT LEAST NOT ANYMORE . This place used to have real açai . I havent visited for a while but last week I paid a visit as I was craving it . . . To my surprise the already prepared bowl ( that cost 8.95 pounds. ) was a blend of something with açai . It was tastless and the texture was strange ??? Me and my wife are Brazilian .... I have lost the count of how many Kgs of it I have eaten . TO THE OWNER : please do not fool people with that . That´s maybe in the best of chance 30% açai . WHY ?

Never tested before.Acai is a delicious dessert that tasted like heaven. The store is tinny, It’s more for grab and go, but the service is excellent. Glad we fundó this place inside the Arcade.

Very tasty with lots of choices of toppings. There isn’t much seating space as the place is very small but worth the visit none the less.

I visited Viva Acai and found the owner very friendly, engaging and knowledgeable. I had the special acai berry bowl, which was substantial, delicious, healthy and good value. The bowl can take approximately ten minutes to prepare from scratch from fresh ingredients, which include strawberry, blueberries and banana. Dry ingredients, such as granola, coconut flakes and pumpkin seeds are also available. It was great to chat with the owner while she prepared the bowl. One can eat on site or takeaway. I shall definitely visit again.

Locale minuscolo vicinissimo alla metro Gloucester Road, in un piccolo centro commerciale (arcade). Ho provato l'originale, anche per contenere la spesa (da 7 A 16 sterline). Fresca e salutare, anche se la quantità mi è parsa esagerata. Ciotola in plastica, si può anche mangiare passeggiando.

Having grown up in Australia, I was really excited to try my first acai bowl in London. However, this one was a massive disappointment. We had to wait about 15 minutes for a fresh batch to be made, which would have been fine, had the acai actually tasted any good. There was zero flavour to it and a strange grittiness which I've never experienced before. We opted for the original bowl, which was also very small for £7 - when topped with granola and banana, the bowl was only just half full. I would not recommend this at all.

Very very good açaí bowls with friendly service. Only get one if you have time though—it takes a min of 10 minutes.

Went here with a friend and it was our first time trying açai bowls and they were delicious! Relatively good value for the large portion. Only downside was that the owner had to make a fresh batch of açai which took about 10/15 minutes but she spent time chatting to us, whilst she was making it, so that partially made up for the wait.

I've been here 3-4 times and the service has been consistently crap. So much so that i will not be coming back again. If you have the patience of an angel and a spare 30 mins to waste then perhaps you'll get to actually enjoy your acai bowl. Otherwise, just don't bother - it's not worth it. PROS: 1. The actual bowls taste good. CONS: 1. Cash only 2. Waiting time can be up to 30 mins even if there are only 3-4 people besides you 3. There is no set portion size for the toppings, so the owner/employee will just give you as much or as little as she wants to depending how much she spent on the ingredient (price of bowl is constant though) 4. Bowls are not worth the price that you are paying 5. Owner/employee is RUDE: -she constantly interrupts conversations -she won't actually take an order that is inconvenient for her. If she made an unsweetened batch - that's what you're getting because she can't be bothered to make a sweet one for you. -she will snap at you for no reason -she was inappropriate. My friend is eastern european but has an ever so slightly darker skin colour. The owner started asking her where she is from and would not back off and kept *insisting*, and I quote, "No, come on, I can see the arabic". Perhaps she thought it was ok but it's massively inappropriate. I don't have the time or the patience to deal with the above. I doubt many people do.

Seriously, you can have vegetarian/vegan dessert for 7pounds, and it's all quality food. Tasty bowl, had a protein one with add-on peanut butter. Would go back

This is the best acai I've tried in the UK. Super tasty, lovely toppings and great service. A must visit.

I frequent this Acai bar often and the service is friendly and the Acai is amazing. I have tried other Acai around London and VIVA ACAI use 200g of Acai, ALOT more than other places which use 50g. You won't find better Acai in London...

Unbelievable, best acai bowl ever, travelled the world and this place tops it all. The owner a friendly and exuberant person, makes the pleasure all so memorable. Highly recommended!!!! :))

Very yummy acai bowl, however very very long wait to get it. Need more people helping her, as it is just very slow, especially if you've been there for more than 25 minutes waiting.

After passing this on my commute for the past 10 days I could not resist going in for a bowl to treat myself on a Sunday. What a great decision that was; for a special bowl (with 3 fresh or superfood toppings) you pay 8...

I come here all the time, best acai Bowl I've ever had! It's a little pricey but totally worth it! The owner is also super sweet, I always have fun talking to her while I wait. I would definitely recommend viva acai over anywhere else...

I am Brazilian and I can assure you that this is the tipical Brazilian açaí! It is one of the best I've ever had! Love açaí! You should totally go!

If anyone is craving an acai bowl, go check out Viva Acai just outside Gloucester Road station! £8 for a bowl of deliciousness!

Delicious Açai! I had the special menu with strawberries, coconut and dates. Açai is very energetic, as such it can replace a small meal. This açaí remind me the great times that I had in Brazil, and the delicious açai that I had over there.

I had no idea what an açai bowl was until my cousin, who is studying abroad in London, introduced this place to us when we came to visit her. The owner was super friendly/welcoming and especially helpful when it came to questions regarding the açai...

Not the cheapest place to get acai, but the closest in South Ken! Acai bowl was also very good, blended acai, not powder.

The owner is such a turn-off. An aggressive woman who rushes you to decide what to get. The tone of voice which she used was condescending. I have visited this establishment before, and if I am completely honest, though the same woman behind the counter...

Two days in a row tried to go to this place, did quite a bit of walking to find that it was closed. First day I arrived at 9 (supposedly opening at 9) and waited for 25mns but no one arrived. Second day I arrive...

Delicious breakfast! I had the special acai bowl with fresh strawberries, blueberries and homemade coconut granola. If you're looking for a break from the traditional English breakfast, come here. A sign just outside Gloucester Station leads the way to this small hidden gem. They serve...

traditional açai bowls served how it should be, delicious and fresh toppings, and friendly service! Better than most açai bowls I've had in Australia, fulfilled every desire I had! 10/10.

This was my first ever acai bowl, and the standards have been set very high that it will be very difficult to find another acai place as good as this one. The owner/server was very friendly and adapts well to any food allergies. I will...

Forget all about fastfood junk - this is the most delicious meal you will ever try. Ideal for breakfast or lunch. Find it Ib the arcade just next to Gloucester Road tube.

The service was excellent and the staff were extremely friendly and kind. Food was delicious and had many options. Very healthy as well :)
