Reviews for Revel - Kombucha Bar and Acai in Ojai, CA
Blacklisted by local delivery drivers because of how inefficient their handoff system is. I used to regularly order from them... until I started delivering for them; now I wouldn?t touch their food with a ten foot pole. It?s setting bowls on the counter,not rocket science. Read more
A surprise visit to this monotonous (but kind) ojai?s top revel destination with candies abound. During my dashwork I bought a... vegan candy($3)?amazing taste. Kumbuchas are not my game but they are amazing too so I heard. I live around h e r e . Read more

A must-visit for foodies! (5/5 Green Stars) I really liked the kombucha flight experience here. The place was relaxing haven on... a rainy day, with friendly staff, board games to try and magazines to read. The Pink Moment was a favorite ? it?s made fromgreen tea, raw honey, ginger, hibiscus, orange zest and the jun culture. Technically, the culture is known as ?jun? rather thana kombucha ?SCOBY?. Kombucha is usually made by fermenting black tea and refined sugar while jun is made from green tea and rawhoney. I learned something new today ? two things, actaully! The other is that SCOBY stands for ?symbiotic culture of bacteriaand yeast.? Anyway, even without strong flavors added (for example, the Om, which had just a little blackberry and lavender)Revel?s kombucha (jun!) tastes amazing. Perhaps even more enjoyable was the vegan charcuterie plate ? vegan cheese and salamiwith crackers, olives and apricots. The vegan cheese was from Conscious Cultures in NY and the salami was from Renegade Foods.Honesty, I?ve never had better vegan cheese, and I?ve tried quite a few. There were two pretty sizeable chunks of cheese, in thestyles of brie and blue, and each did really taste like the dairy equivalent. Another microbiology side-note: both brie and bluecheeses get a lot of their flavor from the Penicillium fungi that they are inoculated with, rather than the milk itself. Socongrats to Conscious Cultures for figuring that out, and thanks to Revel for introducing them to me! I hope that charcuterieplate is still available as I don?t see it on the current webpage. I?m giving Revel Kombucha 5/5 Green Stars for social andenvironmental impact, for these reasons: ? The kombucha is made from organic green tea and organic honey and various additionssuch as organic ginger, blackberry, orange zest, etc., depending on the flavor. ? Besides being almost always organic, manyingredients are local too ? like the oranges, of course! ? The food on offer was great ? the vegan cha Read more
Staff is friendly and efficient. The atmosphere is inviting and clean. I liked that they had different types of healthy snacks... as well as acai bowls. Kombucha tasted just like what I get in the store which means nothing special but it looked pretty. Read more
Me and my husband LOVED this place. Amazing customer service. So friendly and kind! And their kombucha drinks are SO GOOD. My... favorite was the harmonious blend and blue moon. My husband loved the eclipse. It was fun to be able to try them all. If we everfind our way back to Ojai we will definitely be stopping there again! Read more
Awesome kombucha and friendly service! Tried a tasting flight while visiting town for a concert, and now I'm hooked. Their... smooth, mellow kombucha is so different. Now I plan trips to town specifically to come here and fill up my growlers. ThanksRevel! Read more
