It’s the perfect place to catch up with friends, grab a drink after class, or enjoy a cozy study session.

At Bapu Fresh, the menu emphasizes revitalizing fruit flavors with options like the Mango Fruit Tea, Peach Fruit Tea, and Passionfruit Fruit Tea, each priced at just US$4.95. These fruit teas are not only visually appealing, with their vibrant colors, but they're also refreshingly sweet, capturing the essence of ripe tropical fruits.

I haven't been to this location as much as the others. The seating looks comfortable and cozy for an intimate study session, but seating is limited. I'm a big fan of fruit teas and the selection is smaller, but does include different options than the other two locations (the drive up on 10th also named Bapu, and Zero Degrees near Kroger.) The menu doesn't blow me away, but the drinks were good and it's a cute atmosphere. Parking is generally difficult in the area since it is so close to campus.
