Eat Raja - MALLESHWARA — Restaurant in Bengaluru

Eat Raja: Refreshing Juices, Zero-Waste Ethos (But Skip the Ice Cream) Eat Raja in Bangalore is a unique juice bar with a focus on fresh, sustainable practices. Here's a breakdown of their offerings:

The Ever-Changing Menu:

A fun twist at Eat Raja is their dynamic menu. It changes every hour, ensuring you get the freshest possible fruit concoctions. This also keeps things interesting for repeat visitors.

Zero-Waste Philosophy:

Sustainability is at the heart of Eat Raja's mission. They use every part of the fruit, minimizing waste. This eco-friendly approach is commendable! From the fruit shells serving as cups to the leftover pulp being used for compost, they prioritize responsible practices.

Refill for Value:

Their refillable system makes the cost (starting from ₹60) more manageable. You can get up to 3 refills of your chosen juice, making it a good deal for the price.

Dragon Fruit Delight:

I tried their Dragon Fruit juice, and it was a winner! Refreshing and bursting with flavor, it perfectly captured the essence of this vibrant fruit.

Ice Cream: A Not-So-Icy Experience:

While the juice was fantastic, the Ragi Coconut Milk Ice Cream fell short. The texture was quite coarse, and the flavor was average. It seems like their expertise lies in fresh juices, so maybe stick to those!

Overall Impression:

Eat Raja is a refreshing change from your typical juice bar. Their commitment to fresh ingredients, zero-waste practices, and refillable options makes them a sustainable and budget-friendly choice. However, their ice cream might be best avoided.

Recommendation:

If you're in Bangalore and craving a delicious and healthy juice fix, Eat Raja is a must-visit. Be sure to try their ever-changing menu and enjoy the refreshing flavors in a sustainable setting. Just skip the ice cream and focus on the delicious, guilt-free juices!

This was on my bucket list for quite a long time and today I travelled almost 8KMs just to visit this place and to know whether it lives up to all the hypes created over social media.

And yes! It absolutely lives up to the hypes of social media as well as my inflated expectations. The zero wastage policy of this place is really impressive. They serve the juices in edible fruit bowls which is a unique experience. According to the size of the fruit bowl, they refill the juice multiple times until they serve a glass full of juice.

I tried chilli guava juice which was served in a carved out guava bowl which I ate after drinking the juice. And then I tried Banana Grape juice which was served in the Banana Peel Bowl. The flavour of the juice was very natural and I think they don't use sugar for the drinks as the taste was very natural. I had my doubts about the combination of Banana and Grape, but it was strangely good.

It's a street side shop and they serve drinks on the footpath. So, nothing much to discuss on Ambience. But yeah, the scripts on the board are really funny. Nothing much to talk about the service too since they served and refilled the drinks quickly.

They accept UPI payments and the hygiene factor seemed to be satisfactory.

I definitely recommend this place to everyone for the unique experience of having fruit juice in fruit carved...

With a strong belief in social entrepreneurship, the owner has brought on board mothers from across the area of Malleshwaram to contribute via their most popular recipes.

The local cafe serves South Indian style vegetarian food that costs somewhere in between INR 20 to INR 100. Substituting glass bottles for plastic ones by repurposing them, the folks here encourage that you bring your own dabbas if you want to parcel something to take back home. You’ll even find juice served in shells of watermelon and banana leaf-based straws to prevent plastic waste. Using the leftover peels, you’ll find them making bio enzymes that can be used as toilet and...
