Visitors to the Sea Islands are in for a new frozen treat.
Boujee Bowls, owned by longtime visitor to the Lowcountry Sissy Fricks, is now open on Harbor Island.
The restaurant joins Barefoot Bubbas and Johnson Creek Tavern at 2137 Sea Island Parkway.
Boujee Bowls serves luxury smoothie bowls and smoothies.
All of the signature bowls are named after very “boujee” luxury names in the fashion world, such as Cocoa Chanel, Blouis Vuitton and Versacahee.
They also serve “Boujee on the Go” which are smoothies that are more easily consumed on the go than a smoothie bowl.
Fricks, who also has restaurants in Powdersville, S.C., Anderson, S.C. and a food truck in Cibolo, Texas, decided she wanted to open the restaurant on Harbor Island because she has always loved the Lowcountry.
She and her family lived in the Upstate where she drove a school bus until her youngest child graduated from high school.
At that point, she put all her focus into building Boujee Bowls. She opened her first store on April 26, 2023, and has not looked back since.
“I’ve been vacationing at Harbor Island since I was 6-years-old and the Lowcountry is so special to me,” Fricks said. “This has always felt like home to me and from a very early age, living here has been my dream. When this location opened up, there was no way I was letting it get away.”
While Boujee Bowls is currently in their soft open phase, they will be having a grand opening on April 26, and at that time their full menu will be available.
There will be live music and giveaways at the grand opening.
“I am so thankful to have the opportunity to serve the best islands in the southeast,” Fricks said.
Boujee Bowls can be found online at www.boujeebowls.com, on Instagram at @boujeebowlsofficial and on Facebook under Boujee Bowls.
