    I had tried Krak Boba in Westminster so my wife and I had to check this one out in Riverside since we were in the area. First things first is that this location is quite spacious, although it's a smaller store, I find that the store made the store very spacious with what they got. There's plenty of tables around and we saw a few hanging about and some on their devices. We had order online so there was no wait at all. I highly recommend downloading their app as they have promotions very often. My go to drink at Krak Boba is forever the Matcha Storm (Slush) and my wife wanted to try the Moon Princess drink. As the Matcha Storm is always a wonderful choice, they're always very consistent with the drink. Super refreshing no matter the situation and this time was no different. It's one of their most popular drinks and for good reason. My wife's drink, the Moon Princess was in my opinion, even better than the Matcha Storm. I don't know how to really describe it, but it was a taste that I had rarely seen. It was super refreshing, a mix of floral and oolong, it was just the perfect drink. Certainly a good recommendation for such a unique name for a drink. Overall, 10/10 Krak Boba locations, they have other locations and they're all wonderful. Love the consistency.

    Located on Chicago and University Avenues in the Town Square shopping center with plenty of parking. I stopped here for an energy boost so I immediately eyed their 'Coffee' menu. I ordered their 'Matcha Coffee' and I added Boba, which is served over ice. It was exactly what I needed! The drink had somewhat of a heavy texture and was so refreshing. Their menu consists of 'Milk Teas, Smoothies, Fruit Teas, Coffee flavors', and a variety of topping selections like Boba, Coffee Jelly, Pudding, etc. Prices are very reasonable. Service was fast and efficient. Shout out to 'Leann' who was friendly and helpful with the menu. There are plenty of tables to sit and enjoy your treat. I had a great experience here and will definitely return to try other flavors.

    Good place for errands and boba run before work, fast quick and staff are helpful. Order wintermelon fruit tea and had brown sugar tops with crystal boba.

    After having a light dinner at Pho Ha #7 in Riverside, I needed to find a boba shop to pick up some boba drinks for my daughters. My friend was with me and we both were searching for nearby boba places. The ones we found were all within 10 to 15 minutes from where we were at. It wasn't until my friend came to the rescue and located Krak Boba that was literally 2 mins driving distance away just on the other side of the block. Thanks my friend! So here we are at Krak Boba located in Town Square of Riverside. It's a cute and bright shop. Good amount of seating. There is one all gender restroom for use which is always nice to have especially at a drink place. You never know when you need to go after drinking a full cup of liquids. We barely made it as it was about 10 minutes before closing time. Good selections drinks available. I usually don't get too experimental with my boba drinks. My daughters and I have our go-tos. Brown sugar milk tea with crystal boba for my youngest. Peach jasmine green tea with lychee jelly for my eldest. I decided to try something different and went with one of their newest creation CocoThai Butterfly. Of course, we got our drinks with 100% sweetness and no ice (I don't like watery drinks, but sometimes a little ice is okay). My motto... make it the way you designed it. The drinks were filled up to the top even with no ice which I prefer. Thanks Krak Boba for not taking 2 inches off our drinks just because we asked for no ice. I know some boba places do that or they charge an extra $1.00 or so for no ice... really folks??? My daughters liked their drinks very much. As for me, I didn't realize until I got home that my CocoThai Butterfly did not look anything like the photo. It didn't have the blue and white layers. All it had was the usual Thai orange color all throughout the drink. I'm going to have to inquire about that the next time I'm at Krak Boba. Nevertheless, my drink was still delightful. It tasted slightly different compared to the usual Thai drink, but a good different. I don't think I got the coco flavor though. I definitely need to get the CocoThai Butterfly again to experience it for real. Overall experience was a good quick one. Staff was pleasant. Drinks came out fairly quickly and was delivered to us at the table. Thanks for the great service! Of course, it was closing time so we had to go. I would come back here again should I be in the area in the future.

    Great service for their customers. All the interactions with their guests were super friendly and helpful. Down to earth and approachable. Really enjoyed the sense of community here. Inside seating order ahead to avoid the line. The classic craving for that perfect drink is concocted and packaged in a travel friendly vessel here. Lots of parking available right in front.

    Parking: Decent amount available! Ambience: Fairly spacious with a good amount of seating available. Decorated with lots of neon signs / screens and plants. Service: Standard, no complaints! Taste: Got the strawberry matcha latte, which I expected to taste artificial given the bright colors, but it was actually good :) Fairly sweet but not too much, and the boba consistency and drink flavors were all great!

    Krak Boba is such a cute spot!! The staff are friendly! The drinks were great . The mango snow was delicious!! The parking is easy since it's in a shopping center.

    Krak Boba is a good chain that is expanding in many SOCAL cities. My previous experience was in Rancho Cucamonga, followed by one on 17th in Santa Ana. Both of those locations turned out excellent drinks with great attention to detail and made us fans of the brand. This particular store in Riverside is in an area that's a bit dicey, a dirty, often crime-ridden zone with lots of homelessness, so lock the doors. Inside the store, the appearance is not much different if you're acquainted with the brand. Similar decor, selfie areas, and illustrated menus. The staff were friendly and helpful, 5 stars for that. Unfortunately, the outcomes were shy of the mark for different reasons. Hers was supposed to be fizzy, but the lack of ice to cool down the ingredients simply wasn't there. Mine had a similar issue with the fruit being warm from the blender, perhaps? Either way, we were both a little disappointed. She'd order differently in the future, but I had selected something familiar, so hopefully, next time, it'll come out better? Anyhow, we're glad to have a store closer than 15+ miles away.

    All me and my boyfriend get are strawberry matcha lattes so we wanted to try Krak's. They do overload on the strawberry though so I wish the matcha taste was stronger, but I'll just ask for less strawberry next time so it's pretty good overall. Plus our drinks were ready in less than 3 minutes and it's cute in there.

Parking wasn't too bad, and it was an easy walk from the parking lot or nearby side streets. To get inside, you walk through a cute little plaza with other shops and restaurants, which makes the location feel a little tucked away. Once we got inside, the baristas were super welcoming and took the time to walk us through the shop before we ordered. I really appreciated how they explained the way they carefully source and roast their coffee beans to bring out the best flavors. We ordered a shaken espresso and a vanilla latte, and both were fantastic! The espresso was incredibly smooth, and neither drink was overly sweet, so you could actually taste the espresso instead of it being covered up by syrup. There was also plenty of seating, which was a nice plus. Overall, great coffee, friendly service, and a really nice atmosphere!

    The matcha was a 3/5 for me. It was definitely missing that strong, earthy matcha flavor I usually…read morelook for, and there was honestly nothing particularly special or memorable about it. To be fair, Qamaria is a Yemeni coffee shop, so I probably shouldn't have gone in expecting the matcha to be the star of the menu. Just a heads-up for any other matcha girlies coming specifically for that. That being said, $9 for a matcha is actually insane. At that price point, I'm expecting something that really stands out, and this just didn't for me. I've also tried the brown sugar shaken espresso (4/5), which was definitely on the sweeter side but still pretty good. But again... around $9 for a coffee is kind of wild. One thing I will absolutely give them though: the service is amazing. Everyone I've interacted with has been super kind, welcoming, and attentive, which honestly makes the experience a lot better. The price tag still knocks a star off for me, and another downside is that the music always seems to be SO loud. I like a lively coffee shop, but sometimes it feels like I have to yell just to have a conversation. Overall, the drinks aren't bad, and the service is genuinely great, but between the prices and the matcha being pretty average, I personally don't really get the hype. I'd probably stick to what they're known for rather than coming here specifically for matcha.

You are such a good coffee shop with reasonable prices considering the consistent quality of your drinks and yet you're shady. Only the pastry items are posted for some reason but none of the drink items or other food items have prices posted next to them. Should I ask the barista what the price of every item on the menu is and write it down on the menu myself? If the line is long and you want to know how much an item is you can't! You will just have to go in line and waste your time if you don't get the item after all. In what world is that normal or reasonable. I hate it here. (capitalism not the ambiance of the coffee shop, it really is quite lovely) Also different rant on the drink I ordered today. IF YOU OFFER A CINNAMON ROLL LATTE THEN D O N ' T MAKE THE CREAM CHEESE TOPPING AN EXTRA CHARGE. Have you ever seen a cinnamon roll in the wild being priced that way? Whoever came up with that you're wicked and evil. I hope you never have a good cinnamon roll ever again, unless!* your heart suddenly grows three sizes and you take it all back and post your prices like a normal business and don't price things stupid. BTW You could have literally done a snickerdoodle cookie latte and then you don't have to charge someone for a creamy topper that should be included in the price of the drink. Yk if you wanted to maintain the cinnamon essence of the drink.
