Don’t get me wrong, I love Playa Bowls— whenever I’m in town I HAVE to get one. But I’m increasingly disappointed by the workers, the teenage (high school? College?) girls have seem more and more flustered and poorly trained each time I go to this location. Today, the girl at the register couldn’t properly tell my mother in law if the chicory coffee had caffeine (she just kept saying ‘it’s like a cold brew’ which is not an answer) and despite me asking for no granola since I have a gluten allergy and am sensitive to oats, there was granola in my bowl and I didn’t realize until I had taken a few bites. It wasn’t gluten free, so I had to take enzymes to deal with the symptoms the rest of the day. Don’t get me wrong, no one has ever been rude or anything, but if you have food allergies I would keep an eye out, since I think the kids were flustered by the number of online orders plus in person customers and struggling to keep up, so things were falling through the cracks.
