Acai Boy in Altona is our go-to for family dessert outings! Their açaí bowls with delicious toppings, especially the Biscoff sauce, are a hit. They also offer treats like crème brûlée, crepes, brownies, and more. The dining area is simple and service is quick, but it can get busy after school.
A perfect spot for sweet treats that everyone will enjoy!
