Moved to new location at 3120 Bainbridge Avenue, east side between 205th and 206th Street, about the beginning of November 2021. Most of the photos here are from the original location at 3215 Bainbridge, a couple blocks to the north. The new location is not quite as picturesque since the entire block is under scaffolding; I posted some photos of the new location just now.
Best Smoothie Spot In NYC. Prices are great for the size of drinks you get. The Shots are really great too. The portions on the shots are great unlike the other smoothie spots that be giving a shot so small u can barely taste it.Food and pastelitos are amazing.Lines can be a bit long but definitely worth the wait. Menu is huge too so there’s something for everyone.
Got the berry blend açaí bowl today and I could not be more disappointed. I was super excited to try this but when I went to dig in, I found that the açaí base was completely watery and had no density what so ever. Pretty much feels like I’m eating a bowl of cold soup with fruits floating in it. I can tell the açaí mixture was frozen and then re-blended because when I tried to eat it by the time I got home (not even 10 minutes later) it seemed like the ice melted causing it to be a watery mess. I’ve never had a watery Açaí bowl and had no intention of drinking this instead of enjoying it as a meal. I’m certain a freshly made smoothie would’ve had more density than this. First photo I took before I dug in and you can see the fruits sinking right into it.
So someone at work told me that this would be a great place for lunch and off I went. I got a tropical breeze smoothie and a chicken pastelito. The smoothie and pastelito were really good. I took off a star however, because I noticed a few of the employees werent masked. Apart from that, everything was awesome.
NEVER COMING BACK HERE AGAIN! I used to absolutely LOVE this spot, not anymore. They’re always mixing up orders, not listening to dietary requests, the juices are bland, hot and taste like dirt (especially when ordering celery and carrots in your juice). The ladies are rude and have attitudes. This place is going down in quality and customer service. NEVER AGAIN...
I like this place, its convenient and inexpensive but some of the employees have poor customer service skills. Is this an outer-borough thing where you dont have to treat paying customers with the basic courtesy they deserve? Im not used to such dismissive attitudes when Im paying for a product. No one wants someone with a stink face making their food or beverage, right? Additionally, do they use actual tried and true recipes to make their smoothies and juices? I ordered a peanut butter, banana and soy milk smoothie. It was so thick I could hardly move the straw in the drink, let alone sip through the straw. It looked like cake batter! When I got to work I had to pour half of it out and add milk to get the proper consistency. They need more quality control when preparing their drinks. I cant believe I have to tell a juice stand they need to do better at making drinks. 2 stars for the awful smoothie this morning and the piss poor attitude.
Maybe service isnt there strong suit. Me, my friend, and his daughter ordered our item at 5:50 and at 6:20pm they asked us did we order. We again placed the order again and they took another 15 min just for it to be wrong. I run my own business and would be appalled at the customer service we received here. Maybe its a one off situation but its enough for me not to try to buy from here again.
Great smoothies and empanadas when you order from the window - however, when you call in the order - expect to wait to pick up your order. Also, at least for me, the order was messed up. Requested turkey bacon, egg and cheese - got sliced turkey, pork bacon (very bad because we dont eat pork) eggs, cheese. Will probably not order anything from here again.
I had the most delicious chicken salad. The staff is extremely professional and accommodating. They were in the process of closing but they still made a delicious salad and even added more veggies since the actual salad i wanted was unavailable. I look forward to returning soon!
GREAT place to go to for a quick, healthy meal! Their smoothies are always delicious and their chicken pastelitos.. YUMMY.! and they top if off with that delicious chiptole sauce.. mmm mm mm.! I usually only order smoothies because i find that the wait time for meals is too long. the lady explained that its because everything is fresh and done from scratch, which i understand
Omg I love this place so many different drinks. At first I thought it was a basic smoothie spot but its not they have mad different stuff to offer and combinations. Such a dope spot to have in the hood...the line be long sometimes. They make a fresh pina colada no fake ingredients it sooo good. Prices are reasonable. Great thing for the community.
This is a family owned and operated spot. I found this place on my way to the D train and it is cozy, lovely customer service. The best thing is that they have a gokd vegeterian option. You looking for authentic mexican food? Then this is your place. Good empanadas! Freshly squeezed fruit and Veggie drinks!
I discovered Crazy Fruits as I was heading north on Bainbridge on my way to Bronx Central North Hospital. I was thirsty and suffering with a sinus headache when I noticed the location. On both sides of the open window where they serve you were two large, colorful menu signs with over 100 drink selections to choose. Next to each numbered selection are one or more health-related symptoms or benefits. I opted for number 43 which consisted of beets, carrots, ginger and cucumber. The drink was both delicious and refreshing. By the time I arrived at the hospital the smoothie was was done...as well as my headache. To say that the smoothie cured my headache would be an anecdotal. The fact is that if you want a great heathly smoothie or any other fruit-related taste treat, check out Crazy Fruits.
My hubby told me I had too since Im always writing my reviews on where I go eat and I just finish drinking a delicious PEANUT BUTTER AND BANANA smoothiee 😍😍 and my hubby fell in love with the carne molida pastelito so thats why I put the 5 stars + the guy who attended us was very nice and friendly 💙 ill be back more often
Im giving it a 1 star because they dont toast your bread & theres always confusion & long wait times.I get if its family owned, but pay attention! Why offer hot sandwiches to hand them out with cold bread?I dont understand why they cant toast the bread for the sandwiches. They are always late with orders and spend more time talking than working. Pay attention! It costs you nothing if its your job.

2022-06-29I been the crazy fruits costumer from the opening when they was a little bit up on 204th street. If you want a great smoothie or açaí berry bowl that’s my favorite place to grab and go !The crab empanadas also so yummy but they have so many different flavor .My son crazy the Oreo milkshake !Yes,you have to wait almost every time but it’s always freshly made just front of you,so just be patient if you wanna eat something fresh it takes time to make it,The owners a very nice hard working couple , with their kids who try to make the best service for their costumes!Keep up the great job!If I could I give them not just 5 ,10 stars ⭐️!

2021-07-28I love this place, my favorite spot to get açaí bowls. Pricing is low compared to similar business in the area, they make everything fresh right in front of you, and they’re quick. Awesome customer service too, super sweet cashier.

2022-05-22Customer service is so bad when the lady is in the front taking orders. She takes people order left and right so there is no organized line. I literally waited for more then 10mins while new customers were coming to her from the right side and she did not care of the people who were waiting infront. ..... reasons why stay away from this place even thou I like there smoothies.
