The staff is always friendly and helpful, place is always clean and the new soft serve is amazing! I love this place, my husband and my kids love this place, even my dog loves it because he gets a pup cup. Makes a really good dinner option when it's super hot outside and you want something cold and not too heavy in your stomach. I definitely recommend Oola Bowl

One of the BEST acai bowl places I've ever been to! First, we were greeted by a young couple decked…read moreout in Oola merch... I can only assume maybe the owners? They were on their way out the door, but were super friendly. Then a gentleman struck up a convo with us about our RV... even though we didn't have it with me. It took me a second to realize we were both wearing hats with our manufacturer's logo on them... and we drove our truck, so we talked for quite a while about travel, good food, hidden local gems, etc. And finally as far as the staff is concerned, the young lady behind the counter was SUPER helpful navigating my allergies to gluten and nuts... Their granola is GF AND nut free! Their bowls aren't skimpy... They pile on the toppings. And they have homemade "extras" you can add, which made my chosen seasonal bowl (caramel apple) over-the-top delicious. And... they have coffee!? It was a bit strong for me to drink straight (definitely more coffee than dessert... ) so I drank half of it and saved the other half for the next day to blend my own stuff with... which ended up being delicious. If you're looking for a healthier option but still want to get an "ice cream fix" this place is for you!! Oh and the chocolate peanut butter protein bites were incredibly delish also. Highly recommend!

It was delicious. The granola good, but i prefer mines to be in bigger chunkier pieces opposed to it being like dry oatmeal , however I did enjoy trying the pitaya base which i did ended choosing for for my bowl.

I absolutely will be coming back to this location to try more of their foods & smoothies. YUM!!!

Juice & Java has been a Mechanicsburg staple since 2001, and after finally visiting, I can see why…read more I stopped in on a chilly, overcast Sunday evening around 5 p.m. with a very specific craving: grilled cheese and soup. Juice & Java delivered big time. When I walked in, the café was quiet, with just a couple of customers working away on laptops. The atmosphere was cozy and relaxed, with a perfectly nostalgic 90's soundtrack playing overhead. The café itself is small and quirky, with local artwork for sale adorning the walls--an inviting little space that immediately makes you want to linger. The menu was surprisingly large for such a small spot, and while their coffee selections seemed endless, I skipped the caffeine this time. Instead, I ordered: 4-Cheese Gourmet Grill ($9.95) - Monterey Jack, provolone, American & cheddar, a bowl of Roasted Red Pepper & Gouda Soup ($4.79) and two canned sodas ($1.95 each). The staff were friendly, the tables were spotless, and our food came out quickly. The grilled cheese was generously portioned--easily shareable, with perfectly gooey, melty cheese and plenty of those delightful "cheese dangly bits" that make a grilled cheese worth it. But the real star? That Roasted Red Pepper & Gouda soup. Creamy without being heavy, rich with flavor, perfectly warm, and absolutely made for dunking a grilled cheese. I was so glad I ordered a bowl instead of a cup--I would've been sad if it ended too soon. It was one of the best soup-and-sandwich combos I've had in a long time. All in, our meal was just over $20 with tip--reasonable for the quality and portion sizes. With their great hours (breakfast through dinner, seven days a week), plenty of parking in the strip mall lot, and a menu full of tempting options, I'll definitely be back to try more. If you're in the area and craving comfort food with a cozy, local vibe--skip the chains and head here.

The menu offers a lot of different things from waffles, to crepes to crepe sushi! (Which is what I got!) Everything with chocolate or chocolate covered lol. When I heard of this pace I immediately wanted the banana biscoff sushi crepe. They also have it with strawberries but I love bananas ! It was so gooooood. It's definitely shareable so we shared it along with the Dubai cheesecake. Everything was delicious! Highly recommend this place if you have a sweet tooth.

I found Royal Chocolate while doom-scrolling Facebook, where a local foodie was raving about it,…read moreand I very strategically worked it into a Friday night date night to see if it lived up to my hopes and dreams. Spoiler alert: it mostly did...and then some. The moment the door opened, the smell of straight-up sugary sweetness hit me in the face in the best possible way. The menu is absolutely ridiculous -- in the most delightful sense. If you can dream of a sweet treat, it's probably on that menu. I was overwhelmed, overjoyed, and fully committed to poor decision-making. After what felt like an eternity of deliberation, I landed on a Reese's Cheesecake ($8.23 for a ridiculously huge slice) and an absolutely unhinged Peanut Butter Pie Milkshake ($9.30). My Adventure Buddy went with two waffle sticks drizzled with milk chocolate and pistachio drizzle, plus a Spanish latte. Total, including tip? $38...for dessert. And honestly? Sometimes being an adult with adult money really is the best. The combination of the cheesecake and milkshake was mind-blowing. I shouldn't have done it. I definitely flew too close to the sun. I may someday answer for this with a sugar-related medical condition -- but I regret NOTHING. The cheesecake was insanely rich, loaded with peanut butter accents, and there was absolutely no skimping on portion size. The milkshake? Straight out of heaven. Thick, creamy, and PACKED with peanut butter. It was food-coma good. I tuned out the outside world and existed solely in a peanut butter fever dream for a while. Adventure Buddy thoroughly enjoyed his waffle sticks and latte and gave the whole experience a solid thumbs up. Logistics-wise: plenty of free parking since it's in a strip mall, and the staff were friendly. That said, things felt a bit chaotic the night we were there. Despite having around seven staff members working, it took quite a while to get our order, and there was some snarky back-and-forth between staff that was very audible -- which felt awkward since we were the only customers in the shop at the time. Bottom line: the sweets are fantastic and absolutely worth experiencing. With just a little more customer-service awareness (or at least saving staff disagreements for out of earshot), this place could be pure dessert perfection. I'd still go back -- but next time, I'll pace myself...or at least pretend I will.

The environment however, is on the bleak side. Not many inviting features, including the too close for comfort seating. The staff was not entirely the most greeting, while watching a show on their phone without headphones, blasting through the entire shop. Thankfully, they found enough time to pause their show and mix our ice cream, but took no time to start watching it as soon as they finished. We would have enjoyed the ice cream and boba tea a bit more without the sounds of their show!

Me and my three friends stopped here on a Saturday afternoon and to our surprise the cafe was empty, we were the only customers. We ordered three boba, 2 taiyaki, and 1 rolled ice cream.

It was a bit pricey which I can understand as there aren't many authentic boba places out in York. However I could pay the same price at places like tiger sugar or ten ren in NYC for better quality.
