Kravin’ Fruit Bar

BF and I originally planned to go to BAMBU for drinks but BF saw this place while we were parking and wanted to check it out.
There is a lot of variety of drinks here! Even some speciality vietnamese drinks/​desserts. Most smoothies are made with real fruit but you can always ask to clarify. The best part is the prices on the menu already include tapioca/​jelly!
I tried the orange/​strawberry tea and it tasted pretty much like orange juice to me. Sour/​sweet, it was pretty good but I’ll probably try something else next time. BF ordered the ultimate fruit shaved ice and it was pretty good. Not too big but definitely shareable.
I usually don’t hang out on this side of Bellaire but this would be my first choice for drinks.

I have been looking for a juice/​smoothie bar here in Houston & stumbled across this place here on Unilocal.I was a little skeptical about it simply cause I’m new here & wasn’t sure what to expect. I walked in & the environment was pretty great. The people here are really friendly & the guy taking our order was nice & willing to help us pick a drink to order. We ordered the kravin fries since I had seen they were so popular here. We ordered chicken & ended up getting beef. :(that’s why I gave 4 stars. I ordered a green tea with peach & mango, DELISH. My sister ordered a milk tea with tapioca, that was really yummy too. There’s so many options here, I love it! The food and drinks were good enough to make me want to come back! Next time definitely making sure we get chicken though! :)

Okay so all the drinks are BOMB. Fries BOMB… Only negative is the sandwiches. not your typical banh mi… not good at all. I actually threw it away which I never do lol

I’m back after 3 years. The tapioca fruit jelly is awesome I had the orange pleasure and it was awesome. I had s recommendation from the server who was nice and attentive thank you.

They’re drinks are on point all the time! Milk tea and peach green tea is bomb! Lynda Le makes them the best. This place gets poppin on Saturday and Sunday nights. Thats when the mid — old age asian people come out to play.

OMG!!!
I can’t say enough about the Kimchi Fries… Next time I have to try chicken… A little pricey with the watermelon slush… but worth it

Pretty trendy spot with dance and pop music usually playing. They offer street foods, some desserts, specialty drinks, smoothies, teas, slushes, coffee/​frap, fresh fruit juices and cut fruits. You can also find a few snacks at the counter. Prices are similar to other juice bars in the area.
Kravin fries w/​beef, kimchi and bacon added — a lot of flavor going on with this dish, pretty filling, uses frozen fries. Although the menu says «add kimchi and bacon for free», they will charge you an additional 50 cents if you get both.
Honey milk tea — one of the better ones I’ve had
I like the Halloween decorations they have right now, especially the picture frames of dead white people on the wall.

Omgggg… l had the best fries ever! I’m craving for some kravin fries. I won’t lie… I was a bit skeptical at first because there are so many well known places for their fries and I didn’t think this place would hold up to all those different places. Guess what?! Not only did it hold up to those other places, but it also created a new category of its own! UH-​MAZINGGGGGGG!
Immediately walking in, I see people studying at the tables. It was pretty quiet and had a nice clean atmosphere. We were immediately greeted by the cashier. We were new to the place and she gave great recommendations and was VERY friendly. We ordered the kravin fries with all the extras and jasmine milk tea with grass jelly.
KRAVIN FRIES– beef, kimchi, bacon, egg, cilantro, and sriracha sauce
The BEST fries I’ve ever had! There were plenty of beef and kimchi. I love the big portion for the cheap price. I was starving and I didn’t even finish the whole thing! It was so good. The beef was really tender and the kimchi was great and packed a lot of flavor. The hard boiled egg added a very nice meaty texture. These fries had a nice heat from the kimchi and the sriracha sauce. I couldn’t really taste the bacon, but all those other flavors didn’t make me feel like I missed out on much because they all were so flavorful and yummy.
JASMINE MILK TEA WITH GRASS JELLY
I wasn’t sure which milk tea flavor I wanted and the cashier recommended this to me. The flavor wasn’t bad, but it was a bit too sweet for my liking. I’m not going to hold this against them because she did tell me it was a bit sweet, but I wanted to see what it would taste like normally and when I go back I’ll know what percentage of sweetness I would like it. I love that they let you choose the sweet level. The milk tea was creamy and if anyone asked me. I would definitely say that it’s more of a milky, creamy flavor than tea. I know there are people out there that prefer a more tea flavor; so just a heads up. this is probably not for you, but I love me a milky milk tea so I’m okay with it.
I definitely will be coming back. This is going to be my new fries stop shop. Everything from the service, quality of food, and atmosphere is wonderful! I’m so happy and excited I tried this place. It just goes to show that when you step outside your comfort zone, you’ll be rewarded.

Was great! Had it for the first time today, the smoothie was delicious and the place is clean with fast good service. Would love to come with friends sometime for a break from the heat.

I came here one night with my mom after we both felt like having some late night snacks. My mom ordered a strawberry smoothie with tapioca and I ordered the combination bowl with assorted fruits and strawberry ice cream. We both also shared a basket of fries.
The smoothie and fries were very good and the ice cream bowl was okay. I felt like it needed more ice cream and less shaved ice. I am not paying ~$ 6.00 for some water.
However, upon digging in my bowl, after about half way through eating it, I discovered a medium-​sized insect laying under some fruit dead. I had lost my appetite after that and alerted a worker about it. The lack of care about the situation really upset me. I show her the spoon with the bug on it and she just says «Oh, sorry,» and throws the spoon in the trash. No compensation, no refund, or anything. The manager was nowhere to be found. She didn’t even attempt to alert the manager because God knows would’ve said/​done the same thing. Seems like they were more worried about their profits than to have a customer leave satisfied.
I let my mom finish the rest of the fries and her smoothie, and we left.
The food, prices, décor, and atmosphere are very nice, but I would have to think twice about coming here again because of the customer service.

I was skeptical about trying this place because I usually only drink Starbucks and was never into boba. But I decided to branch out and try something new and MMMMM LET. ME. TELL. YOU.
I don’t regret trying this place! They’re my new fave (I chose them over Starbucks! Omg can you believe that?! Totes life changing). Their drinks are amaze balls. My fave is Thai tea, the fruit tea and the heartbreaker drink.
However, the main reason why I go here is because of the cashier. OMG MMMMMM MAN CANDY! His name is Bryan and he’s the owners’ son. It was like love at first sight and I just love how he looks. He looks like he works out everyday like omg. He’s just perf you know?! 10 out of 10!

One of my favorite places to get kimchi fries. The milk tea here is pretty good too. And the staffs are always friendly.

Yet another bubble tea type place. I was brought here by a friend who was super excited about the place. I decided to try the Kravin Milk Tea with um… I’m not sure what was it in… but overall it was an alright sweet drink. My friend ordered her «regular» (aka, something she had before but I wasn’t pay enough attention to remember what it was) but then seemed disappointing in it. The staff was friendly, so there is that.

I LOVE coming to Kravin’, but I always wonder why I don’t come here as often. It’s a great study spot because they offer free wi-​fi that isn’t down all the time. It’s also pretty clean, and their bathrooms are clean too! Sometimes it can get a bit noisy, but Kravin’ is also known for a «hang out spot.» Every drink I’ve had here has been pretty good. My favorite is the Kravin’ Fruit Tea! It’s an orange-​juiced based tea that comes with a bunch of fruit in the cup, such as honeydew, mango, watermelon, strawberry, etc. So after you finish drinking the tea, you get to snack on the fruit that has a bit of the tea-​flavor infused. Mmm! I also recommend the Kravin’ Green Tea! It’s a green tea-​based drink (duh), but it comes with several toppings inside, like jelly’s, etc.
The BEST study snack, or just snack, here is their Kravin’ fries. Definitely get it with kimchi & an egg! You can choose chicken or beef (I prefer beef), as the meat. They do a really good job of making sure EVERY fry has a bit of sauce or toppings, so no matter what fry you choose, it’ll be more than just «a fry.» Pretty awesome.

This was a cute little shaved ice store! Loved their ultimate shaved ice order, we shared it amongst since 6ppl and killed it.
They have a nice little patio outside with chairs. We sat outside since we had some smokers in our group. The service is pretty fast. The only problem is that if you were sitting outside you wouldn’t know if your order is ready since they don’t bring it to your table.

I absolutely love it here.
I first came because I heard great things about their milk tea. It’s sweet and milky in just the right proportions. With every sip, you can taste both the tea and the milk. The tapioca is always consistently good. I’ve never had any of their fruit teas before, but I’ve heard they are also fresh and delicious!
My most favorite thing here is their kimchi fries. I honestly like it better than Oh My Gogi’s… But that’s just me. I love how it’s cheesy and crispy, always full of flavor. You have the choice of chicken or beef for meat and either bacon, kimchi, or egg as the extra topping.
They also have free wifi here so it’s a chill place to get some work done or study.

The establishment is nice looking inside. In a busy shopping center. Decent bathrooms. The fruits in the fruit display looks delicious. Don’t know how much it cost though. Would have to ask. Came here for their fruit teas. Brother said he had a new fav. Orange green tea with fruit and mango smoothie. But… Today is not the case. It seems their quality is not consistent from a month ago.
Green tea with orange had too much orange juice and it was not sweet. Kind of sour/​tart orange juice, not enough tea.
Mango smoothie was not creamy tasting this time like they forgot the milk. So it was just too sweet and icy.
Their dessert: suong sa hot luu Che is not good. The red jelly is not authentic and doesn’t have the crunch factor. The dessert was lightly sweet. I took one bite and pushed it away.
My siblings had stopped by here a month ago and loved it. Today they said both of their drinks sucked and they did not finish them.

Okay they sold me these days. With the improvement of sugar levels!!! The fact they are less of a hassle to get too, they open late and have tapioca into the late hours!

I decided to come to this place, because my sister kept asking to come with her. It was my first time trying this place out. Once we arrived, We were greeted by 2 cashiers. A young Asian girl with glasses and a blonde Asian. The blonde was very rude towards me. I ordered the Durian smoothie with popcorn chicken combo. After I found out that the Durian wasn’t suit of me. I returned to the counter to order another drink and asked the blonde Asian to describe what was something on the menu. She replied with an unpleasant attitude, «I don’t think you will like that, since you didn’t like the Durian»! I asked again and she refused to tell me. What kind of service is that? I ended up ordering the iced coffee with coffee jellies and a blueberry strawberry smoothies with fruit jellies.
The blonde Asian was very impatience when I was trying to decided what I wanted. She showed no concern in helping me or being polite. A group of people came in and she described several items, but not to me. Not sure if it’s a race issue or what. The Asian with the glasses was more helpful and polite than the blonde one was.
The Durian smoothie had a metallic, poison, sour taste to it. I had it once at Tapioca Xpress and it did not taste like this at all. It was a lot better at Tapioca Xpress. Not sure if the fruit was served molded or not fresh. Both of the cashiers said it had a unique taste to it, but I didn’t think it was going to be this unique. They also make their smoothies with condensed milk. I don’t know if that threw the taste off, but it was not good. The popcorn chicken meat was gray and had a distinctive taste to it. The blueberry strawberry smoothie was really good and the iced coffee was ok.
However, I will not be returning unless the blonde Asian changes her attitude. It will be good if there was a bell at the counter for when the cashiers are away from the counter.

I’m addicted to the Orange Green Tea. Addicted like it’s a drug): Best you’ll find in Houston, hands down!
Also, everyone that works here is so damn friendly. I LAHV IT!
This is the perfect place to study. It’s close by, they have wonderful drinks (Orange Green Tea, Thai Tea, and the Honey Green Tea are all fantastic), and the atmosphere is really relaxed. It can get a little cold sometimes, so I have to bring a sweater if I plan on staying a while, but it’s nice on the really hot days we have.
I hope this place never ever ever closes down! ^_^
