The Fruit Stand — Restaurant in Kent

I am so so happy this place exists!!! The atmosphere was friendly and welcoming, the fruit bowl i got was the tastiest and freshest i have EVER had, and the employee who helped us out was just so sweet and kind and radiating positivity! It was truly such a lovely experience, i can't wait to frequent this adorable little spot.

I got a large fruit bowl with a twist - wild berry açaí + banana strawberry soft serve (all only fruit!) and for my fruit toppings i chose grapes, strawberries, pineapple, and banana. For my crunchies i chose flax meal and chia seeds. For my drizzles i just chose local honey. All of the fruit was perfectly ripe and sweet and delicious, none of that underripe, whiteish colored, burn-your-tongue nonsense that most places serve up. It was so extremely delightful and perfect all around. The soft serve was so delicious, i was in awe of the delicious flavor! Also, this spot has amazing prices and portions. The large was definitely very filling.

As someone who has struggled with health issues my whole life, i have turned to the mucusless diet healing system and regenerative detoxification as a way to heal myself naturally - and it has worked miracles for me! Fruit is a very large part of my diet. I often feel like there is nowhere for me to go to have that experience of eating out. I cannot even explain how GRATEFUL i am that The Fruit Stand exists!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Also i'm really hoping for a location in Akron's...

I often sit in Acorn Alley with a cup of coffee so I watched for a long time as a seemingly non-stop line of male and female customers entered The Fruit Stand. I am a vegan so I eat a lot of fruit. I was mesmerized by the number of others who do too. Why is this place so special? It's just fruit right? Wrong! I finally tried it and now it is my favorite thing to eat! All the other reviews about the kind employees are correct. I needed help my first time through and the young lady was kind and patient and even let me sample the fruit puree that makes the base of the smoothie bowl. The fruit was fresh and delicious and my bowl made me wish I lived closer so I could eat it every...

I just left The Fruit Stand and experienced the worst customer service. I asked for whipped cream on the side and was told they could not cover it for my carry out. I then asked for it to be placed in a small bowl so that I could transport it to go. The employee threw the bowl on the counter. Next, the cashier did not even bag our to go order. I personally bagged my fruit bowls. The rudest employees I have encountered in a very long time. (Also, the pineapple was brown). We have been to this establishment many times and this was terrible customer service. I don’t know that we will return after today’s experience. If kindness doesn’t come natural to your employees,...
