Every month they have rotational flavours so there's always something new to try. I don't think I've ever been disappointed by their selections! They also have a rewards program and a two pint tuesday draw every week. My usual go to is their vegan GTL, but their hazelnut and pistachio scoops are pretty good as well. They are open late which is perfect for satisfying a late night sugar craving.

Everything looked delicious and we weren't sure what to get so we got a lemon meringue croissant to share and it was delicious! It was quite large and I'm glad I didn't get a whole one for myself. Both their matcha latte and cappuccino were yum! Service was good; the lovely guy at the front counter helped us figure out what to order; that was appreciated. The place was buzzing with chatter and happiness. So cool!

I have been this cafe for many times, and recently dropped by to get some baking goods. What I got - Hazelnut supreme croissant and cheesy bite(cheese pull apart). Hazelnut supreme's hazelnut cream was sweet, so good. Dough could have been a bit more crispy outside. Some parts of croissant was a bit soggy. Cheese bite(pull apart) was the best pull apart I have ever had. Size was large, decent price and cheese flavor was strong. Dough was crispy outside and inside was so soft and buttery. So delicious! Highly recommend this item! Overall, I always love this cafe. I will visit here to get new item next time.

I ordered 6 inch ice cream cake with Cookie and cream on the top, Chocolate mint chip on the bottom which was birthday person preferred flavor. Garnish for Oreo, and crunch flavor for chocolate cookie crunch. Cookie and cream ice cream flavor was great. Ice cream texture was very creamy and rich. Chocolate mint chip had refreshing flavor and the level of sweetness was perfect. Both ice cream flavors paired with chocolate cookie crunch and coating chocolate very well. Chocolate coating was very thick which we really loved. Oreo garnish was so cute and butter cream icing was very thick and sweet. It was vey delicious and was a great ice cream cake, I highly recommend!

Everything is 100% dedicated gluten-free, which means you can walk in and order anything without the usual cross-contamination stress. For anyone with celiac or gluten sensitivity, that peace of mind alone is huge. But the real star of the show? The ice cream sandwiches. They're hands-down some of the best I've ever had. The cookies are perfectly soft and chewy with a slight crisp, the ice cream is creamy, and the ratio is spot on so every bite is balanced. They feel indulgent, nostalgic, and elevated all at the same time. They also have vegan "nice cream" options, which is such a thoughtful touch. Even if you're dairy-free, you're not stuck with boring flavors -- the vegan options are just as rich and satisfying as the classic ones. The whole place feels like a dream for anyone with dietary restrictions: delicious, inclusive, and made with real care. Whether you're gluten-free or just love amazing ice cream, this spot is absolutely worth the visit. Note that they're also available on Uber Eats!!

While I visited Italian day on drive, I found their vendor and tried their pistachio ice cream. I couldn't believe how large the ice cream portion was! Almost 2 scoop?? for 1 scoop price.

I always like this ice cream. And so many pistachio topping! I really love their ice cream and service. I will visit downtown shop again.

Modern, contemporary design with plenty of warm woods. Tho its my first time here, my friend spent almost half her visits to Commercial Drive at this cafe. Initially we were just going for gelato, as there are some unique flavour offerings. I was SO happy to have chosen the honey-lavender. AND I could not leave without buying their gorgeous massive pecan caramel rolls! Took one home (gave the other to my friend) & was able to eat it across a few days. I was amazed how well it kept! Forgot to take a pic before I dove into it. Next time! (find me on Instagram via @aida.loves ) Will obviously be back...

I had an individual sized chocolate cake and it did not skimp on the ingredients. They know how to make and store icing here. The cake was so moist that it wasn't sloppy. Very well done.

(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!

I had always wanted to try their New Zealand style Frozen Yogurt. Soft serve was very creamy and the level of sweetness was perfect! And there were a lot of strawberries pieces inside, it was not overly sweet, slightly tangy flavor. In general, I can't really eat tangy flavor dessert, but, this place's soft serve was well-balanced, therefore, I had no problem to have it. And white chocolate matcha coating paired perfectly with soft serve. And I really loved freeze dried strawberries, it was a great accent. One thing that really surprised me was the size!! It was way larger than I expected. It really worth trying their soft serve. Highly recommend!

This time, I was keen on trying their ice cream festival feature. The strawberry ice cream dipped in matcha white chocolate was a dream! My boyfriend got the mixed berry with a fig bar on the side and it tasted mostly like their regular berry ice cream. However, what shocked me was that the ice cream feature costed about $15 after tax/tip per cone. I can't lie I was a bit turned off after realizing how much it cost. Their typical ice cream is around $8 which is already a bit hefty. I suppose it makes sense with rising costs and hopefully, the honour to pay staff fair wages. There is ample seating outside, although it is not the most accessible as it's quite rocky. The vibes indoors and outdoors are really cute though.
