OMG, I love this place. I believe it is owned by a Japanese family as one of the owners' sons were helping out up front and they have several Japanese variations of milk tea. Seriously, it is SO hard to choose, but they have something for everyone. From lattes, to blended drinks, to boba, you will find something you like here. They also have a sizable crepe menu and you can get lunch crepes with all the lettuce fixins or a dessert based crepe. They have all the usual such as strawberry nutella, tropical etc but I decided to build my own and it turned out amazing. The crepe is a perfect portion and really hits the spot. A Capitola must-try. The first day I arrived, they didn't ask if I wanted boba in our drinks so we got it automatically, but no biggie. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in the area. read more

Extensive bubble tea menu and huge, shareable-optioned sweet or savory crepes in a great variety of flavors. We had one with coconut ice cream, bananas and Nutella that was delicious. Jalapeño poppers were clearly a pre-frozen food since there was an abundance of water that squirted out at each bite. Not terrible, just nothing to go out of the way for. New favorite dessert place! read more

When walking over to another shop, my boyfriend and I had to stop when passing by when we saw the menu and options through the window. We had other lunch plans, but couldn't pass on their great looking crepes! We got a Early Morning crepe and it was amazing! Highly recommend for a nice bite to eat. The portion was huge and they make it fresh in front of you. Also a great amount of filling in the crepes! Can't wait to come back and try more crepes and some of their tea as well. A great little gem in the area! read more

I was desperate for coffee this morning & was in this area so it was convenient. Ordered a vanilla latte. my usual. OMG, don't ever get coffee here. SO BAD. I had to throw it out. They do not know how to make coffee. I swear, I've had better coffee at Jack In The Box. That's what I get for not going to Starbucks. ugh, waste of $$. read more

This place has such delicious crepes. I stopped here on my way to Santa Cruz this weekend. I ordered the Cheese Cake crepe which was filled with cheesecake, nutella & slices of strawberries. I also got the PB & Nutella & The Melt with Ham & Cheese. All three was yummy and sweet. I will definitely be coming back. It was difficult to order though as they did not quite understand what we wanted when I decided to exchange something in our order. Food: 8/10 Service: 7/10 read more

Stopped by here for crepes after watching a movie and was unfortunately disappointed :( It was a Friday at 2 pm and not super crowded, but a few people had big orders ahead of us so we had to wait 30 mins to get our crepes. We ordered the veggie fiesta (savory) and the nellastrawberrynana (sweet) crepes to get one of each type of flavor. We dug into the savory crepe first, then the sweet crepe. Oddly, our savory crepe tasted sweeter than the sweet crepe! I know that Japanese crepes naturally taste sweet, but the crepe itself had a flavor that was overpowering the savory insides. The nellastrawberrynana crepe tasted fine - nothing super standout, but after a surprisingly "savory" flavored first crepe, the sweet crepe didn't even taste sweet. I think it could have used more Nutella. Additionally, both crepes were soggy, so that also did not help. Overall, we left feeling dissatisfied with the long wait, off flavoring, and soggy texture of the food. read more

Their crapes are really good! And the boba tea is the best you can get in Santa Cruz County, imo. I just wish they weren't out of grass jelly all the time. read more

First time I came I was greeted with friendly faces and ordered a sweet crepe that was delicious! The second time my boyfriend and I visited and ordered savory crepes. Afterwards we had stomach aches :( wasn't sure if it was the eggs inside or something else that triggered our stomach pains read more

I have been SO obsessed with this place lately, one of my new favorite spots in santa cruz county! Everything is delicious, and the staff is very lovely. If it is busy, it can sometimes take some time to get your order, but it's entirely worth it read more

Awesome food and good service. I've never had a bad meal here. I recommend the ham and cheese crepe & the Thai Boba tea! read more

Alright so hubby and I were headed to Rite Aid, and as we were driving to find a parking space, hubby saw the Japanese Crepes. We had something similar in Vancouver, CAN. Super busy place. Seemed to draw the younger crowd on Sunday mid afternoon. I want to say the owner looked overwhelmed a bit since he was making everything. Boba drinks, other drinks, and all the crepes. It's a soft crepe instead of crisp. We got the iTahiti. It wasn't bad. We were torn between three different crepes. This one had banana, nutella, coconut ice cream, whipped cream and toasted coconut. I would probably get it without the ice cream. The ice cream was in a ball, and it was hard to eat and cut. Not a bad little place to stop for a sweet or savory treat. read more

CLOSED ON WEDS! The boba here is okayyy, but maybe good for the area? Lots of different flavors so you're bound to find something you like. What we came here for was crepes though. Yummy, super big savory and sweet crepes. There are so many different flavor combos, including ones that don't have dairy for you fellow intolerant folks. All are customizable. The crepe itself is soft and has a little chewy bite, never over cooked, and has a little sweetness to it even with the savory crepes. Each crepe pretty much fills a full sized to-go container so you're getting a lot for your money! read more

This review is a long time in the making, let me start off by saying that. I found this absolute GEM around two years ago and since then it has been my favorite secret to take my closest friends. Truly one of my favorite places in all of Santa Cruz area. The owners are dank people, and the Husband of the shop is the absolute man, lets me and my buddies have fun and eat dank grub in his shop. One time I got two crepes and got dared to eat both, I am not that big of a grubber, but the challenge was set. The owner laughed as he watched and even brought me a mini trashcan to mess with me as I was trying to finish the last one. Boba is exquisite, crepes are exquisite, finally leaving this review to give this place justice before I move back down to southern California. I'll never forget these owners and this place read more

The coffee, boba, etc are all pretty decent if unremarkable, but the beverages mostly exist to give you something to drink while you enjoy the main event: the crepes. The crepes are incredible and the guy who makes them has it down to an art. But a word of caution: the crepes are HUGE! Split one with a friend unless you are coming for an entire meal or want leftovers. To give an idea, the strawberry nutella banana contains (by my estimate) an entire banana and 2 cups of strawberies, which is a great value for the price but definitely not for the slightly peckish. read more

Amazing crepes!! And awesome staff. They were so nice enough to let us eat there even though we got there at 7:50pm in which we did not realize they closed at 8pm. I got the cheesecake with strawberry and Nutella and their mango iced tea with boba. It was so good! read more

I'm just going to mimic what I'm guessing every review says. Yes, this place is basically always crazy crowded... because it's easily the best boba place in town. Their crepes are amazing, as well. The owners are very friendly and I'm a big fan of their Covid safety practices! read more

This place looked amazing based on other Yelp reviews, but the quality of the food was disappointing. We got a turkey avocado crepe, and it wasn't bad, but it kind of just tasted like they out cheap deli meat inside. We also got a nutella, strawberry and banana crepe and that one was slightly better although not too impressive. Their coffee was very average (we had an iced latte). I also got an horchata bubble milk tea, and that was decently good although not as flavorful as other horchatas I've had before. read more

Excellent spot for lunch. For $10, you get a ginormous savory crepe full of protein, veg, and deliciousness! Enjoy!

This was a wonderful find! My daughters wanted crepes and this little place did NOT disappoint! We waiting for a little bit but worth the wait! We will return soon! read more

This has been my favorite place to get boba ever since I was in middle school. 10 years later it's still a great small family run business. They have the best boba consistency (not to hard or soft jelly like) and they also serve crepes (sweet or savory) read more

First time here, ordered the Istrawberry which is strawberries and strawberry ice cream! It was super delicious and really big portions. The only downside was the wait but there was only one worker at the time so I forgive them. If you want really delicious crepes I would suggest coming here! They also have savory crepes and boba milk tea. read more

Amazing boba thay have do many flavors it's insane also ther crepes are insane to i definitely recommend

Was looking for somewhere to stop for something sweet while visiting a friend in Soquel. After doing some searching crepes sounded delicious! We arrived at this location to see a line out he door, we were a little hesitant since we did not feel like waiting long but we decided to stick around. The line ended up moving quickly. They had tons of options of milk teas and other drinks. They also had a good sized menu of sweet and savory crepes as well as a build your own! The options here were plenty which was exciting. We ordered a banana, strawberry, and nutella crepe as well as a honeydew and a horchata milk tea with boba. We were all extremely happy with our orders. There was a bit of a wait since the crepes are hand made fresh right in front of you, but well worth the wait. Absolutely delicious and a friendly staff, will definitely be back! read more

Best boba in the area for sure! I love that they also sell crepes! My favorite boba has to be Jazmine milk tea. As for the crepes I had the turkey pesto and my friend had the veggie fiesta. Both were packed! They gave us the perfect amount of everything inside the avocado was everywhere! No skimping on avocado! To buy a crepe and a large boba drink it only cost $13. I am fulll and completely satisfied. LOVE THIS PLACE !! read more

Great little spot in Capitola. Crepes are huge, filling and fresh. They certainly don't skimp on ingredients. We tried the Thai iced tea and warm boba taro and both are spot on. Happy to find this place as we don't need to trek into Santa Cruz for our boba drinks. read more

Super vegetarian friendly! Wide selection of boba! (My favorites are the black sesame or the winter melon!)

This place is a staple for me. I've been going here for several years. Their crepes are high quality and delicious, and their prices are quite good. The staff is very "to the point" but they are friendly enough. iCrave can get kinda busy during peak hours, and it can take a decent amount of time to get your food. I always call ahead and if they don't answer just call back after a few minutes. It's a small family business that is pretty popular, and they do their best with the small staff they have. Just be prepared for a small wait if you're ordering on the weekend or during peak hours. Would definitely recommend to friends. read more

Best boba drinks in the area and trust me, I consider myself a boba expert, having grown up in the SoCal area and living in East Bay. Boba was perfectly cooked. Drinks weren't too sweet @ 30% sweetness and the flavors came through. The drinks were prepared quickly and ordering was a pretty hassle-free and quick process. You can tell it's not high-quality tea leaves compared to more authentic boba stores via its lack of aroma and flavor, but it's definitely the best in the area. Would definitely visit again if im in the area. read more

Do you love Japanese Crepes? If you do then iCrave is the place for you! They have many different ingredients to choose from. I love the fruit crepes, but the fried tofu crepe is also very tasty! The whipped cream is made in house and it is just right not too sweet. Need a drink to go with your crepe, iCrave offers a wide variety of bubble tea flavors to choose from. All their milk teas are made with real milk, no corners are cut here. The hot steamed milk teas are an awesome addition, my favorite is the matcha flavor. Whether it be for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or for a tasty treat, iCrave has something I am sure you will really like. read more

The Crepes were so good. They have so many selections and if you didn't like any of theirs you can create your own. the crepe/ boba combo was awesome. the man at the counter, which i'll assume is the owner is so nice. He is so calming too. There was a customer that came in that was all frantic and his mannerism just totally calmed her down. read more

This is my favorite place to go for boba in all of Santa Cruz. They have quick friendly service, a big menu of Boba and Crepes and everything is delicious! My favorite is the AvoCoCo, just Avocado, Coconut Milk, & ice blended. Nice to go somewhere for boba with good ingredients. 5 Stars! read more

Really good boba! Basically the only place in all of Santa Cruz so when I need my boba fix I'm coming here. Been here a few times! Glad they have soy/almond milk options for the milk teas. They have a bunch of flavors to choose from and they let you pick more than one flavor. I usually get the large boba with almond milk and for the flavors I try out different ones. I love the almond flavor milk tea, coconut, and honeydew. Minus one star because I came here on a Tuesday around 6:30 and they were already closed.... I get it if it's a few mins before but a whole half hour? Annoying because I drove over from Aptos to get one and the hours state on yelp and on their sign they are open until 7pm. I feel like this place is underrated! It's never too busy and no one really knows about it! They need some local marketing because they have good quality stuff :) read more
