Mango sago pomelo soup
Evan C.

Been here before but looks like they completely redid the interior. It seems more spacious and much nicer inside now, and the desserts are still good so I highly recommend you come by again! Got the mango sago pomelo to share and it doesn't disappoint. Really good. Also got two drinks, I got a mango milk tea and it hits the spot. Good drink container too. Also got an egg waffle. It's crispy though doesn't have much of a salted egg flavour. Overall still recommend this spot for sure for good boba, Chinese dessserts and egg waffles.

It was a quiet Friday night so there were ample seats. The menu is fairly large and they have both hot and cold desserts. The red bean and tofu pudding was good. Not too sweet and just the right sizing.

Black sesame dessert with glutinous black sesame balls
Ashley N.

Came here on a whim after having Vietnamese food for dinner at Cafe Xu Hue across the street! It's very cozy and bright inside, and felt like a great way to end the cold November night. Service was very friendly and quick. The chocolate bubble waffle was deliciously crispy but soft to bite into. I loved the amount of chocolate flavour in the waffle - not too sweet! To me, this was better than the chocolate chip bubble waffle I got once at Paragon. That one was simply original waffle with melted chocolate chips in it. This one was fully immersed in chocolate batter and gave a wonderful overall flavour. Would like to try their other flavours! The black sesame dessert was good and felt homey, but I wish there was more sesame/nutty flavour. The sweetness was balanced. The glutinous sesame balls were a perfect texture, and the filling inside was so tasty. It was pure sesame.

Such a great hangout spot for drinks and dessert on Kingsway! I came here to catch up with a friend Tuesday around 5 pm and we were the only ones there for the whole hour. Not surprising, as I assume this is more of a post-dinner spot. I was really impressed with the wide selection on the menu; no matter what you want, they probably have it! They split the 4 menu pages into the main categories: waffles, ice pot, shaved ice, cold and hot drinks, hot dessert, and cold dessert. It was a cold rainy day when I came, so my friend and I both got something from the hot dessert section. I went with HP4 ($8.95), the tofu pudding with red bean soup, and she got RB11 ($9.95), which was black glutinous rice with black sesame tang yuan / sticky rice ball. I wasn't super impressed with the tofu pudding, which was a little bit sour than what I'm used to. Plus the texture wasn't as smooth as regular tofu pudding. I appreciate they give you some additional sugary syrup on the side, as the red bean paste wasn't sweet enough to go with the tofu pudding by itself. I definitely want to come back and try the shaved ice on a warmer day! It looks amazing especially if you're a fruit lover like me.

Black sesame soup + black sesame sticky rice ball
Thu P.

Went here on a whim after dinner because we saw they had hot desserts! But this place was a little pricey for what you get in my opinion. Got the chocolate bubble waffle and the black sesame soup with black sesame sticky rice balls. The chocolate bubble waffle was really good! Good chocolate flavour, but a little dense. The black sesame soup wasn't the best--it was pretty bland for me and lacked a strong black sesame flavour. The sticky rice balls were absolutely delicious though.. Perfectly sweet with a good amount of black sesame flavour. If I ever happen to go again, I would definitely just get the sticky rice balls on their own! Service was great--it was regular sit-down service which I didn't expect. Paid after we ate. The ambiance felt like any other bubble tea or Asian dessert place. Lots of seating--23 seats inside with additional baby chair and 2 seats outside.

Accepts credit cards. Overall feel is a typical basic bubble tea spot. Nothing special. They give out paper straws. They do have milk tea served in a light bulb bottle and ice pot shaved ice which I've had in the past. It's a novelty and people go for the gram. Brown sugar pearl milk tea $6.95. Rating 6.5/10. The pearls are chewy. The sugar and milk mix is smooth and delicate but the sugar usually sets at the bottom of the cup by the end of the drink. Mango Slush $6.50. Rating 7/10. Good and not overly sweet.

Good place to get dessert and bubble tea. Got the bubble tea and it was pretty good and good for the price. All other dessert like bubble waffle, subing, ice dessert and many others are available and it opens till very late so definitely come around if you want dessert until late. Cheers!

Watermelon close up
Erika D.

Talk about soft and fluffy ice! Who would have thought ice would be that cozy (if that makes sense). We ordered two very large dishes to share between four people: the mixed fruit shaved ice hot pot and the watermelon shaved ice. COVID wise, there's a hand sanitizer right in front when you enter the restaurant and there are barriers between you and the cashier. The desserts themselves were very refreshing. I really enjoyed the watermelon one as it's huge chunks of watermelon and it wasn't too sweet. When you finish it, there's also still watermelon on the actual sides so you can keep eating it. The mixed fruit one was good, but did get really sweet at the end. I think they were easily worth the price considering the aesthetic and how much you get (easily fed 4 people with even more leftover) Service was fine! The desserts came out quickly.

Cute spot for desserts! Parking along the street, I believe you have to pay. I ordered a mocha milk tea with pearls and it was great. I will try their ice pot next time which I believe is their specialty. It wasn't busy on a Tuesday afternoon. Service is quick. I met up with a friend here and we enjoyed our time talking. They play anime on their TVs and the decor is cute! Can't wait to be back :)

Coconut Slush with Mango Bobas.
Richard W.

Got a Coconut with Mango pearls which is $6.25 plus 75 cents for the pearls and 25 cents for the single use cup. Not bad price but I consider this an average for what you get just check out my photo. I love the taste of the Coconut and it was creamy with Mango mixed in. In my neighborhood and I will be back to try some of the other offerings they have.

Matcha bubble waffle with red bean
Connie A.

It was pretty mellow here on a Saturday afternoon, with only one other table in the store alongside us. The server was friendly, took our order promptly, and the food also came quickly as well. I loved how they had a miniature version of the airplane-chess game, which comprise a great of my childhood. I also love the clean aesthetic of the interior design - simple and great for photographs, so that is a plus in my book! My friends and I ordered the mango ice pot and the green tea bubble waffle with red beans. I adore mango anything and everything, and this ice pot certainly did not disappoint! It came on a tray with a ceramic pot over spewing dry-ice, with condense milk and extra mango on the side. Portion size was huge, perfect for 3 people and the shaved ice was soft, fluffy, and straight up melted into my mouth. The bubble waffle also tasted good, and presentation was fantastic, though I was pretty full by that point. I thoroughly enjoyed the ice pots here, and will definitely make more visits back and try their different flavor offerings!

17 degree bubble tea & dessert cafe is located on Kingsway and near Gladstone St. I would say this is quite inventive, creative, and impressive dessert cafe in Vancouver. They serves a variety of bubble tea and soda which come in light bulb-shaped glasses (some that light up). They also serve shaved ice with fresh fruit (scooped), tapioca pearls, and ice cream. My friend and I came here on Friday night. It wasn't busy when we walked in. For 2 mid-age women, it wasn't hot enough to have shaved ice with fresh fruit. We ordered matcha red bean bubble waffle to share, it was good but not outstanding. The organic ginger tea was tea bag and added 2 slices of ginger in the cup. Taste very mild. It's ok to check it out for photographing on Yelp or Instagramming.

Taro milk tea with coconut jelly
Vanessa Y.

Birthday celebrations generally means that there's not only a dinner but a dessert will follow. I came here with family over the weekend and apparently this place had a new soft opening in which there was 20% until yesterday (Sept 3). Needless to say, the place was completely empty at 8pm on a hot Sunday evening; either this place isn't good or everyone just went elsewhere. Nonetheless, we didn't complain about having the place to ourselves. The place does look like they've done some work recently as the chairs and tables we sat on were fairly new. The desserts were just what I expected. After having been to a few shaved ice places in Vancouver, I kind of have an idea on what to expect. The mango ice pot that we got however was served on a tray with condensed milk and mango toppings on the side as well, there was liquid nitrogen coming out of the bottom so be sure to get your cameras ready! Also came here to try their melon shaved ice since pictures look so great. If you don't want too much of the same fruit, you can pay an extra $3 to get your choice of two mixed fruits like we did. We ended up getting watermelon and cantaloupe. The whole thing is served on half of a cantaloupe with shaved milk ice, shaved almonds, lychee poppers and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Definitely would recommend sharing this since the portions are so big as you're eating half a melon but hey, if you're ambitious enough to tackle it on your own, go for it. No one's going to stop you!

As I love desserts, I was so excited to see Chinatown and visit this place for the first time. This place was located in an area that would be best to walk with a friend or a small group- I was not quite prepared to see and experience what was going on all around. Finally, we made it there and were glad to order some doughnuts. As soon as we entered, we were greeted by the sweet smell of doughnuts and the two friendly staff. Everything looked so good, so narrowing down our pick was very hard! At the end, we ordered two flavours- Matcha and Tiramisu. The matcha doughnut was soft and the filling was light yet full of matcha flavour that one would expect, I loved every bite! My friend had the tiramisu doughnut and she said that she enjoyed the fluffy texture of the dough and the creamy filling- it felt like eating tiramisu in a doughnut form. If you love simple yet high quality ingredients, this place is the perfect place to get your sweet cravings fixed!

After grabbing dinner with some friends, we wanted to grab dessert. I knew Nero Waffle was nearby,…read moreso I suggested it. I've only been to the original location on Robson years ago, so wasn't sure if the quality had stayed the same, but we thought it was worth trying. We ordered a Tiramisu and a Bresilienne to share between four people. It came out it in relatively short time. And wow, they were both even better than I remember. Their waffles are incredibly crisp and light, despite the amount of toppings on them. I don't know how they make them so they stay so resistant to going soggy. And despite the amount of whipped cream, ice cream and sauce on them, the waffle was always able to balance out the sweetness. Their waffles are just perfect balance of flavour and texture. Service was also quite impressive. Our server was very pleasant and attentive, and brought share plates with out being asked. Overall, a great dessert. I don't know why I haven't returned earlier.

Vanilla custard was nice and you can see vanilla bean flecks. Pistachio flavour was ok) Overall, I would come back just for their BRUSSELS waffle and during brunch time as they have the Benedict option!

Well it seems ownership has changed and the new owner doesn't give two craps about prior customers, honoring discounts, replying back timely or being more friendly? Was playing email tag and finally submitted the 39 flavors and didn't hear back until after another week and then told they won't deliver only in morning when they know our reservation was for 730pm and they're open until 9? I even replied back and nothing. We own and run several business in lower mainland and in United States and this customer service from Unni Pastries is trash. At least you can do is reply back and apologize? For wasting time when I specifically told you it's for family and friends flying into town for a funeral burial. Will never use their business again. I highly suggest Mello. They replied and helped me out last minute. Shame on you! Learn how to run a business and treat customers esp previous customers who were supporting the business and fellow Krn but it's clear the new owner doesn't care about the customer or quality it's all about quantity. Maybe my 39 donuts which I offered to pay extra for time and packaging wasn't large enough but money is money. Especially during this time and economy. You should've at least replied back and even tried asking us to do pickup as the restaurant is down the road. Do better! Go to Mello which isn't too far and they bake fresh daily better pricing and reviews and consistency!

I'm from the Bay Area and we have our fair share of Japanese grocery stores (shout out to Niiya in Japantown in San Francisco) but I was very excited to see the selection here.
