I believe they were one of the first places in Vancouver to really bring these fruit-shaped desserts to the forefront, and then slowly everyone else started following the trend. The mango is definitely my favourite. It's light, fruity and refreshing and the white chocolate shell gives you that little crack when you bite into it. I tried the clementine/orange one as well and I would probably skip that one next time. It's mostly cream with not a ton of cake. The good news is that the mousse is pretty light, so even though there's a lot of it, it doesn't feel like an incredibly heavy dessert. The pastries and desserts are definitely more about the experience and presentation, although there are some really good options beyond the fruit ones too.

As a self-proclaimed coffee connoisseur, I could tell the latte was brewed using high-quality coffee beans, and my matcha latte had premium matcha powder.

They even offered a water bowl for my pup, and the patio was heated. I am planning to come back and enjoy my drinks again tomorrow.

The orders came out quickly after we put them in. My waffle wasn't that sweet and had a nice chewy texture and crisp exterior. Every bite was filled with the black sesame tangyuan. My friends also enjoyed their respective waffles, which had a great texture. The nice thing about this spot is that they have a ton of different flavors for savory and sweet waffles (e.g. bacon and cheese, chocolate, chestnut, egg tart, etc). There really is something for everyone. The area itself is in a small "mall", sort of like an Auntie Anne's stand at the mall. There is a parking lot and street parking nearby it. I'd recommend this spot for egg waffles if you are in Vancouver.

So many unique flavors! We went with the durian cheese and the salted egg pork floss. Between the…read moretwo I definitely enjoyed the durian cheese more. The filling was creamy and you definitely get the durian flavor. The salted egg pork floss was strong on the salted egg flavor especially when it was fresh. There's a bit of a wait to cook the bubble waffle so make sure you have the time to wait around. The shop itself is pretty small but there's a little area outside where you can sit and enjoy your treat.

We have grown to expect curt responses and annoyed looks from staff. Consistently. So we were anticipating the same when we stopped at the Paul cafe in Robson. We were happily surprised to be greeted warmly at the door. Every member of staff was smiling. We hesitated while ordering ( in the last this would be met with derision) yet not here. Usually you get what you get at Paul. You don't make requests. You don't point out mistakes. Here we were able to ask for additional cutlery and the only response was "of course ". The restaurant itself was bright, airy and had a comfortable atmosphere. Sadly we do not live in Vancouver or we would be back often.

I'm typically not someone who likes macarons but this place definitely changed my mind. They had the not so common flavours and the pistachio/ salted caramel and rose ones were definitely a few of my favourites. Not only did they have a huge variety of cute macarons but there's a brunch menu, a huge selection of additional pastries and a solid customer service human ready to help you whenever you have a question, speaking from personal experience being served! The decor inside is definitely ig worthy too. Dress cute and take a selfie!!

I ordered the 6 inch mango cake for my sister's birthday and it was absolutely worth it! The cake…read morewas light, fresh, and full of delicious mango flavour without being overly sweet. It was a huge hit with everyone! The 6 inch cake was $69 and I added a customized birthday message on chocolate for an extra $3 which was a nice personal touch. They also offer a gluten free option for an additional $10 which is great for accommodating different dietary needs. One thing to keep in mind is that you'll want to order online well in advance because their cakes sell out quickly. I can definitely see why. They're fantastic! I'll be ordering from Gary's Patisserie again for future celebrations.

Have seen Gary's fresh mango cakes all over IG and with my Dad's recent birthday I convinced my…read moresister to order one, instead of our usual mango cake from Saint Germaine bakery. Gary's only allows to order the fresh mango cakes up to one week ahead to ensure they have enough ripe mangos, which I admire their dedication. We ordered the 6 inch cake for 9 people (7 adults and 2 kids) and everyone got a thin to average slice. The cake is definitely prettier than the other fresh mango cakes on the market, has a lot more mangos that are perfectly ripe and sweet, there is less wipped cream, and the sponge cake is softer. The family agreed that Gary's has the best fresh mango cake but at $69 for a 6 inch cake, versus $43 for a 6 inch mango cake from Saint Germaine, a cake from Gary's is definitely a treat and for special occasions. Is Gary's worth the premium price? I think so but not everyone in my family agreed. One thing to note: Gary's do offer cake in a jar that's $8.50 each. When we went, they had a BOGO deal with the mango cake jars. My nephew asked my sister to buy the BOGO deal knowing that the 6 inch cake was not going to be enough, as the kids like having a second slice of cake.
