What a wonderful gem in terms of love for the work and the product. Very small and manageable, you almost walk past, a good friend who lives on 71st Street took me "just there".They knew him there, he was a regular customer and so I was able to enjoy something that went far beyond a normal smoothie... just something really successful and tasty that I would want to order again at any time.Don't ask me what I got there... but it was great and I'm very sure that pretty much everything else you can get there is absolutely worth trying.

Such a ripoff! if your order is less than 7$ they'll charge you 7$ to evade tax!

A NYC staple! Quick, fresh, and super convenient with multiple locations throughout the boroughs. Big fan of the Peanut/Almond butter Punches and the Island coconut smoothies.

I initially came to try Pressed, which is two doors down. However, it turns out their smoothies are bottled and not freshly made so they recommended I try Hawa. It is a tiny little shop with a large menu and just a counter for ordering. There is no seating inside. I tried the strawberry, blueberry and banana smoothie and added protein. It came to $8.71 for a large. The smoothie was tasty, but it was a bit sweeter than I was expecting. Still, I was grateful for something fresh to sip and it hit the mark.

Favorite spot for açaí bowls. Very sizable portion. Their peanut butter protein drink is great

Hole in the wall to buy delicious bubble tea from, but no atmosphere to speak of. Grab and go!

This is smoothie heaven per a person that doesn’t really imbibe smoothies. First time had had the mango banana one but my eyes fell on my daughter,s avocado based called avocolada. First back to the Mango banana which I think also had pineapple in it. Was fruity and light…. Very delicious. However when I took a sip of the avocolada, I couldn’t believe how tasty and filling it was. Apparently besides guess what avocados, avocolada also contains spinach. Now if I was told a this at the beginning I probably wouldn’t have even taken a sip. But it seems Hawa has come up with recipe that the imbiber doesn’t taste it alll. Parents take note. Prices were right for nyc. Hope to able to replicate when I get back home. Just a warning for those not knowing that avocados do oxidize a bit rapidly. So despite the excellent sealing that Hawa does, you might find the taste changing a bit after some time. Love to get it again.
They make the BEST acai bowls! The consistency is thick which I love.

Best açaí bowl I've ever had! Super refreshing and filling. I love smoothies and bowls and this is by far the best I've had as it wasn't soggy, was made quickly, comes with mango topping!

RATING: 8.5/10 (not for the boba though) PRO TIP: Yes the viral watermelon lychee drink is -the- drink to get. Their secondary focus is boba, so don't count on it being competitive with the amazing boba options in NYC. WATERMELON LYCHEE SMOOTHIEFirst of all ... refreshing wouldn't even begin to cut how this drink makes you feel. Perfect for a hot summer day. Heard all about this drink on IG and the combination of refreshing watermelon with the creaminess imparted by lychee is so so wonderful. It melts fast, so drink fast, though! The key to this place is the fresh fruit they use for all their drinks, so the quality is truly there. One of the TOP ways to cool down this summer! And that's that.I also tried their MANGO PINEAPPLE SMOOTHIE at a separate location, and was thoroughly refreshed by that one as well, which melts more slowly. But again, fresh ingredients = amazing product. FINAL CATEGORY: EXCELLENT (terrible / bad / ok / good / great / EXCELLENT)
