    Original with ube filling

    Yum!! It was quiet when we went. The service was quick and the food was good! I'm curious to try more combos.

    We stopped by to get something quick to eat. These cream puffs were delicious! We got the ube puff with ube cream, chocolate puff with chocolate cream and the lemon mashle puff. The outside were crispy and the cream was cold and sweet. Service was very quick and easy and the woman at the register was very patient. It was definitely a nice treat to enjoy while we explored the city.

    Went to get a quick snack. The place was quiet and clean. The lady was nice and patiently waiting as I was being indecisive . My cousin was super excited that there was a mash-up with Mashle and got Lemon

    Fruit flies mushed into the lid

    Placed an order for a mashle cream puff and a hot chocolate at about 6pm, went to Sunvalley mall for about an hour then headed to Napa right after for a show at 8pm. This cup was in the car entire time after leaving beard papas with the windows UP. Came home and wanted to finish my drink so I wanted to warm it up in the microwave. Took the lid off and saw all of these fruit flies in my cup. & no there is no fruit flies in my car. I'm so disgusted, I drank SO much of it too. I don't even know how many fruit flies I ingested since I was drinking it over a period of time. I literally want to throw up as I'm writing this. You can even tell on the rim there's fruit flies smushed into the cup because the worker put the lid there. Why on earth would you serve this to someone???

    I was in the area for a birthday. Omg it was dreadfully hot outside. since we were in the area I heard there was a Bearded Papa nearby, Thank goodness ! Ordered Uber, Green Tea, chocolate and the reg Bavarian cream. These hit the spot ! They are nice a cold and so yummy and slight crisp crunch to the shell. I have a stamp card for the L.A. location off of Sawtelle, but they didn't honor it. Maybe because it's owned by different owners. It's alright , still worth it since there is none close to me.

    I love Beard Papa cream puffs and used to get them quite often after work when I commuted to SF via Bart. Unfortunately, both SF locations have since closed. But fortunately, Beard Papa has crossed over into the East Bay so I can occasionally get my sweet tooth satisfied. Beard papa offers a variety of puff shells with fillings as well as other desserts like cheesecake, eclairs, and lava cakes. For the cream puffs you choose your shell and filling and they're made to order. Shell flavaflavs include plain, chocolate, strawberry, matcha, etc. Filling flavaflavs include vanilla, chocolate, ube, coffee and a few others. Flavors rotate out, so it's best to call ahead to see what specialty flavor they have for the day. Price of the puff depends on what shell you want and filling, and they range from $4-4.35. If you buy 6 puffs, you'll get $1 off and a cute yellow box. My friends tried the coconut with ube and they stated the ube flavor was very indistinct and muted. I didn't try it because I don't care for those flavors. I enjoyed the matcha and the oreo puffs. The matcha was filled with vanilla bean cream; my favorite pairing. I tasted more white chocolate than the matcha, but the flavor was there. The vanilla cream was smooth, cool and custard-like. The puff overall was crispy and dialed down the sweetness of the white chocolate glaze and cream. The oreo I didn't have until 2 days later but it was still good despite the texture of the puff going soggy. Keep them in the fridge if you're not eating them right away. The shop is quaint with a few tables to enjoy your puff treat. They have a fun wall of Beard Papa mans on one side and a brief history of how the shop got started on the other side. Overall, good puffs. Enjoy them fresh! Reasonably priced. The staff were friendly and the puffs were nicely packaged in the box. Location of the place is not bad; they're close to Teaspoon. Parking outside can be difficult because it's quite busy but you can park in the free garage 2 blocks over. I will definitely come here again because I want the matcha cream with the chocolate covered puff!

    This Beard Papa's is located in the Todos Santos Plaza area in downtown Concord, occupying the spaces vacated by Loard's Ice Cream. After getting bubble tea next door on 03/22/2023, my friends and I were looking for a place to hang out. We decided to come here since they have tables for customers. We also wanted to get a couple cream puffs to go with our drinks. We walked in at about 7:10 pm and it appeared the workers were prepping for closing time. There were no other customers besides us. One of the workers greeted us. We got two cream puffs for us to share - one crème brûlée and other ube. The total was $8.40. I had a piece of both and they were just okay. The puffs tasted a bit stale. This was not a surprise since the area was pretty quiet when we arrived. There probably wasn't enough turnover at that time for them to make fresh ones. The good thing was they weren't too sweet. I sure didn't need more sugar that evening. Workers were friendly and welcoming. Maybe I will come back during daytime for fresher puffs. 3 stars for now.

    Beard papa's 4 life! This location in downtown concord is great because it's next to so many restaurants - who doesn't want a cream puff after lunch/dinner? The creamy puffs are piped to order and the combinations are endless and delicious. My favorite combos (so far) are the ube shell with matcha filling and the chocolate shell with vanilla filling. The Oreo shell and filling are also great as well! The filling is on the sweeter side but the cream puffs themselves are nice and crunchy.

    Both Great flavors!  Cookie crumble was awesome
    Christina S.

    Overall a 5 store is not in the best location and it smells kinda funky right when you walk in (kinda a deterrence.) It's like the smell of butter and sugar. I dunno.. otherwise the place was clean tho and the display of items was pretty and to the point. Food was actually quite great. I recommend getting it stuffed with ice cream! It's a huge treat but the flavor of the puffs are actually quite lovely. I got orea with icecream and 5 others all with vanilla filling that was a light creamy vanilla bean not too thick and filling or gross. Pleasant flavor and texture Oreo ( great Oreo flavor! Well done! ) crumble, honey butter ( my favorite ) and dulce de leche. Lady was sweet as I took my time to figure out what I wanted. She help guide me and also recommended a few things :)

    We ordered a dozen of these creme puffs to go, 1/2 went to my niece and half came to me. I had two plain powdered sugar with chocolate filling, two Oreo Cookies n' Cream Shell with chocolate filling, and two Ube Shell with Ube filling. I liked all of the flavors we ordered except the Ube did not taste like Ube to me, just my opinion. And I recommend you eat these right away. Don't keep linger than a day. They'll get soggy. And these are not overly sweet. So this was a quick and easy order. Fast and friendly. The size of the creme puff were pretty good size, like the size of a muffin. I was surprised. The prize is around $3.90 to $4.20 depending on the flavor. So not too bad. The place is really cute. It's not huge though. So not really a place to hang out for long.

    Where's papa?

    Happy I no longer have to make the drive to what used to be Westfield in the city. There's a variety of flavors now versus years back of the regular boooooring chocolate, vanilla and strawberry. Yay for new dope flavors. Is it still yummy? We'll, it's still yummy. Get it fresh guys and order in versus using grub hub online ordering to save $0.30 cents per each standard size papa. One thing I wished they had daily is the cereal (fruity pebbles) version. That has to be a daily staple. Instead, it's a monthly special that's randomly added to the menu in no particular day or fashion. Please publish this on your social handle for us to pick up on. Girls up front were friendly. I asked for extra filling and they did it with a smile. I need cream to be all over my Face. It's just a preference. Hah!

    Dubai chocolate, Creme Brulee, Churros Cinnamon, Ube Shell, Dark Chocolate Eclair Shell

    Nice gem to enjoy for take-out after a walk around the local farmer's market. The puffs taste pretty fresh and the variety of flavors are always great to try out!

I just was not sure if the floral flavor paired well with the red bean filling I chose for the inside of my fish-shaped cone. We also ordered their matcha soft serve, which used to be my favorite, but the matcha flavor yesterday did not seem as strong as I remembered. Other than that, my experience was really great. The store was nice and clean, and even though we had a party of six, we were able to get the largest table, which was perfect. It was also very well air conditioned, which felt amazing given the unusually hot weather we have been having in Concord in the middle of March. I would definitely love to come back again soon and order their ube flavor, which is my favorite.

Somehow they reminded me of a perfect mix between McDonald's fries and Wingstop fries. Crispy, flavorful, addictive, and impossible to stop eating.

The combination of amazing food, warm hospitality, and live music turned what started as a lonely Valentine's Day into a genuinely comforting and unforgettable night. Definitely a hidden gem, and I'll absolutely be back again.
