Sometime last year my daughter and I got hooked onto Acai bowls. We've ordered a few times from…read moreOakberry downstairs in Park Royal. I was delighted to learn that the Booster Juice stand upstairs by the food court also sells Acai Bowls so I decided to try one of their Acai bowls recently. Very impressive! They don't have as many varieties as Oakberry but what they do serve is just as tasty as any of the Acai Bowls from Oakberry. I found that the bowl they served it in was also much easier to scoop from than the cups that Oakberry serves their Acai Bowls in. When I'm eating an Acai Bowl from Oakberry, I always feel like I'm dangerously close to spilling the contents of my cup whenever I'm scooping from the top. This Booster Juice Acai bowl felt like I had more room to move things around without being so close to spilling things. I find that the location of Booster Juice is also more convenient. As much as I love the Acai Bowls from Oakberry, if I'm with a group of people at Park Royal (and I usually am), I don't like having to separate and go downstairs to get an Acai Bowl if everyone else is ordering their food from the food court upstairs. Probably gonna alternate between the two places from now on, when the Acai bowl cravings hit. I've also had smoothies from this place in the past and their smoothies are pretty good as well, but I am really really loving the acai bowls now!

Oh my goodness, how do I begin .... I was thirsty travelling from Burnaby to North Vancouver, I…read moredecided to stop by the food court and see what I could find. After walking past all eateries, I saw this little stand just at the end - Booster Juice. I made up my mind to try some healthy juice. There was a new menu with this all green mix. So I ordered it. It costs about $8.99 incl. The lady who served me was new to the job but she was very polite and pretty quick to take my order. After about 5-7 mins the drink was ready. The first taste was "wow, it's so fresh!" not too sweet, just right about of taste. The second wow came a bit little when a ginger hit my bud. It was so good and I wanted a flash dance in the mall! Anyway, the food court was full of family gatherings, pretty busy on a Saturday afternoon which was normal. The ambiance was noisy , but it was a good kind of noise that I don't feel annoyed.

Came here with my daugter and my mom. Daughter was craving an Acai Bowl so she and I both had Acai…read morebowls. Hers was the Nalu and mine was the Banzi Bowl. My mother had an Avocado Toast. Holy smokes, the Acai bowls here are massive. We were soooo full. If we ever come here again, we will just share one bowl with each other. Not sure that we will come here again though. The Acai bowls weren't bad but I've had better. I feel it could have been a bit sweeter. I was not impressed with my mom's Avocado Toast. I could see my mother struggling to cut her Avocado Toast so it seems the crust was quite hard. She ended up leaving a lot of the crust on her plate and just ate the middle of the bread. On the website I had seen Avocado Toast, sandwiches, wraps and Salmon Lox Bagel. I was quite dismayed to walk into this place and not see any of that stuff written on the menu. There was a small sign by the cashier that said to ask about Avocado Toast. I guess by the same token, I would have had to ask about Salmon Lox Bagel. Why make us ask about it? Why not just include it on the huge menu that was up on the wall? Might have made life easier when it came to ordering something for my mom who isn't into Acai bowls like us. This place seems to be somehow shared with Bean Around the World coffee shop which is right next door. There's no wall separating the two shops. You can walk from Anchor Eatery straight into the coffee shop next door. We ended up taking our food and drinks from Anchor Eatery and sitting next door at Bean Around the World coffee shop. Assumed it was allowed since there was no separation between the two shops and nobody tried to kick us out of the coffee shop.

I asked if they use real mango and the cashier cheerfully explained that they did use real mango as well as fresh coconut juice. This felt like a much healthier choice than grabbing a drink at the food court.

Second time placing an order through the Oakberry app. Starting to get more comfortable with it…read more Decided to do something slightly different this time. For my "Crunchy" topping I chose Crispy Quinoa instead of Granola. For the rest of my toppings, I chose pretty much the same as I did last time I think: strawberries, blueberries, banana, coconut, chia pudding, and almonds. I loved the Crispy Quinoa topping. I think I'll start ordering that more often! Came a few minutes ahead of the pickup time that was given to me on the app but my order was already waiting for me. The lady who had prepared it had placed it into a small fridge for storage and just had to pull it out and hand it to me. It was already paid for on the app, so...quick, easy and painless pickup process. Really starting to like this ordering on the app system!

The açaí latte was creamy, smooth, and really delicious -- a fun twist if you're looking to try something different from your usual coffee order. The mango matcha was refreshing and nicely balanced, not overly sweet. Service was great as well -- Sumaiyah was super friendly and really helpful in walking us through the menu. Overall, a great spot for unique drinks, and it's also a nice sitting area in the middle of Park Royal mall.

There was one other person waiting for her order and one of the blenders wasn't working quite right so I had to wait awhile for that issue to resolve and was standing in front of the glass partition just watching my smoothie being made. I was completely taken off guard when I was rudely ordered to "please move! Stand over there!" I didn't see any signs saying where to stand. I can only assume that she didn't like being watched. I know these are challenging times but there is a polite way to handle these situations. I'm a senior citizen and that human interaction was the only one I had all day.

(That might have a lot to do with the free parking!) Came here with my daughter on a Saturday night. Usually we come to Krave Kulture during the day but this was the first time we came later in the evening. I think it was sometime past 8pm when we arrived. Big, long lineup. Very popular place. We decided to sit in the car for awhile and see if the lineup might die down. Every few minutes I came out, and still saw people lined up. After coming out to check about 2 or 3 times, I realized that a lot of the people in front had gone in, ordered and come out with their orders but that the line was still long because new people kept arriving and joining the line. Wow...I mean, we love this place of course and I guess it should be no surprise that this place is popular since we ourselves love this place so much, but we never knew just how popular this place had become. When we first started coming here a few years ago, it was easier to get in. Seems the lineups have grown. Anyways, we decided to finally just join the line instead of waiting in the car for it to dwindle cuz that really wasn't working out for us. Got to the front, ordered a large Vanilla/Chocolate twist with unlimited toppings. Happy, happy, happy. I really hope they will start opening up more Krave Kultures in other parts of Greater Vancouver. Ahem, Burnaby or New West would be very much appreciated!
