Grain and Berry - Back Mountain — Restaurant in Back Mountain

The food is DELICIOUS and fresh. and the restaurant is clean and a nice vibe, but my only issue is that they need to hire more staff during peak times. I haven’t seen more than two girls working the fruit preparation area during busy weekend days and they seem overwhelmed - to no fault of their own, esp as young kids. Every worker I have seen works efficiently and is very polite despite the pressure of there being many people waiting in line for service anytime. I usually order ahead for pickup and there have been a few times where the food wouldn’t even be ready despite me arriving a few min past my pickup time. This is usually what I see but my next paragraph touches on the alternative:

This doesn’t stop me from going there and again I cannot stress enough the workers are so nice and do their best, but I really think they need a third person as a floater on the fruit bar preparing things and watching for pickup orders during peak times. I ordered through DoorDash for my own pick up, but I have also seen DoorDash drivers stand around, waiting for someone to attend to their orders while the two workers on the food prep line attend to everything else. With the food items being frozen (açaí), this should not be. I think the experience for customers and the workers too would be greatly improved with a designated 3rd person floater on the food prep bar...

Grain and Berry has quickly become one of our favorite spots! The bowls are packed with the freshest fruit — vibrant and full of flavor. Their flatbreads and toasts are just as impressive, with layers of flavor that feel both wholesome and indulgent. And the juices are outstanding, especially The Healer — so crisp, clean, and energizing, it’s become my go-to every visit.

What makes it even better is how much my daughters love the food here. It’s not easy finding a place that everyone in the family gets excited about, but Grain and Berry nails it every time. It’s such a welcome alternative to the typical dining options in the Back Mountain — fresh, creative, and healthy without ever sacrificing taste. It’s clear that the owners truly care about their business and the community they serve, which makes supporting them feel even better. We’re grateful to have...

I visit Grain and Berry 2–3 times a week for an Açaí Bowl and parfaits for my kids; we are hooked! I’ve tried making my own açaí base at home, but it’s never the same. The difference is clear: Grain and Berry uses FRESH,NOT FROZEN, high-quality ingredients. Their açaí base is prepared daily in bulk with fresh açaí and bananas, then flash frozen just enough to create the perfect consistency.

All of their fruit is fresh Grade A, cut the same day, and you can taste it in every bite. I always order through the app for the rewards, and my food is ready immediately. If you walk in during a busy rush, you might wait a few minutes while they prep a new batch — but trust me, it’s worth it.

Hands down the best açaí...
