Virtually all rock contains mineral crystals of various sizes. Most volcanic rocks such as granite contain crystals of quartz and other minerals. Crystal size varies depending on the speed of cooling.

Igneous rocks are the ones that have crystals in them. They are or were formed by molten magma, and the crystals inside them depend entirely on the conditions at the time of their cooling.
