    Delicious eclairs. I'm so glad they have a location in Glendale. They now offer a nice variety of glazes and fillings, though my go-to is still the classic with vanilla cream. Service is quick and efficient. My only suggestion would be to provide a small container of powdered sugar on the side for to-go orders, so it can be added fresh right before eating. Conveniently located inside Glendale Galleria.

    After walking around the Galleria- we needed something to cool off . Found this cream puff deli to try. Not too sweet yet delicious. Will recommend- 5 stars.

    Mini with green tea filling

    I came here to obtain a stamp on my card. I was trying to earn enough stamps so that I could get a yelp goodie bag. Free parking because it's located near the food court at the Glendale Gallaria. Quite a few places to sit if you are lucky enough to get a table which I was. Not much ambiance since I'm sitting in a crowded mall. The young lady helping me wasn't too sure what to do in regard to the yelp card, but thank goodness there was someone there to assist her. I was surprised how small and expensive the mini was!! Bought only one and it tasted fine if you like a pastry with cream in it. I got the green tea filling.

    It is located close to the food court. There is a seating area right in front of the store. The Service: Matthew was helping me at the counter. Super friendly and efficient. He prepared my giant creme puffs beautifully! The Dessert: There are 4 flavors of the cream filling, chocolate, vanilla, green tea and coconut. Super generous, every bit with overflow fillings. I always love their chocolate, strawberry and green tea eclairs. This time I wanted to try the fancy ones, Oreo crumble, honey butter and churro eclairs. OMG! They are my new favorites now! Definitely bring these creme puffs to the next level. I love to mix & match the shells with different fillings. Fresh baked pastries with nicely chilled fillings. They are perfect dessert or gifts for any occasion. The Parking: Park at Garage A (free).

    Beard Papa is a Santa Claus type of character (cue kindness and a fluffy white beard), named Yuji Hirota, a baker from Osaka, Japan. If you didn't know, the Osaka/Kobe area of Japan is famous for sweets and baked goods. It's my mom's hometown! Beard Papa is celebrating its 25th year and now has over 475 stores worldwide. These are delicate cream puffs and not on an American level of sweetness. These are much more subtle, in the Japanese confectionary style. The filling ratio is a secret recipe- a combination of whipped cream and vanilla custard cream and they are $4.50 each, filled to order. I do have two wishes: I wish they had a strawberry cream filling and I wish they'd give you a napkin without having to ask! Other than that, Beard Papa cream puffs are a satisfying treat. I normally get the strawberry puff with coconut cream and my mom approves of the matcha green tea puff with green tea cream filling. Today, I tried the chocolate eclair with coconut filling. Tasty and light with just the right amount of sweetness.

    The area looked disorganized and there was no one to be found for 10 minutes. The space could be a little cleaner. Other customers came by and got fed up waiting. Finally a mother and her teenage girl came. The teen saw the doorbell, probably because it was at her eye level. The main glass area where the register is might be the best location for the door bell as most people go to that area to look for staff. If that is not possible, please try to make the door bell more visible so that it can be seen from a distance. As for the items I purchased, I decided to try the Dubai chocolate shell with the chocolate filling ($5.25) as it looked delicious on your poster. The chocolate shell was too thick that when I bit into it hard enough to crack it, a lot of the filling oozed out of it and onto the paper and my hand. There was also only a light hint of pistachio and more of dark chocolate. I also wanted to try the Sakura matcha eclair with green tea filling which is what I pointed to and ordered, but was given the green tea eclair ($5) instead. I do not recommend combining two green teas as it intensifies the flavor; try vanilla instead.

    This place is great for a quick treat!! Worth the $$ for sure!! It's delicious and the chocolate filling reminded me of chocolate pudding!! Very delicious and well worthy of having as a snack for the mall!!!!

    Buy 1 Get 1 Free Shell all day 2/19/2023

    We stopped by on the perfect day because they were having their 1 year anniversary celebration with a special promo, buy 1 get 1 free eclair shells all day on 2/19/2023. We got the Green Tea Eclair Shell, Strawberry Eclair Shell, and Honey Butter Eclair Shell (x2) all with original vanilla filling. Our favorite was the honey butter ones. It was so yummy and not too sweet. The green tea and strawberry cream puffs were too sweet, maybe it's the icing on top. Quick service and it wasn't busy at all. We ordered and got our cream puffs immediately. You need to eat these right away when it's still fresh. Otherwise it wouldn't taste as good.

    No workers in sight
    Albert M.

    Customer service at this location is terrible, first of all the workers are in the back somewhere hanging out, no where to be found at the front. I observed for an about an hour and multiple customers stopped by but left because no one was there to help them. And the short girl working there had an attitude, no friendly customer service or enough minis for the weekend.

    Original Shell with vanilla filling and powdered sugar on top
    Katie D.

    I LOVE Beard Papa's, especially this location! It's my favorite place to get desserts at the Glendale Galleria. I usually stop by every time I visit the mall. Service is always super fast! The shells are already made so they just add the filling and hand it to you. I like how you can customize the shell (original or eclair), filling (vanilla, chocolate, or green tea), and they also asked if I wanted powdered sugar on top! When it comes out, the crispy shell with the cold sweet cream makes for an absolutely heavenly treat!!! There's plenty of filling inside as well. Make sure to grab napkins because it can be messy the more you bite into it! Also, the service today was exceptional as my cream puffs were packaged nicely and came in super cute liners, which I haven't seen them use before. They even currently have a collab with the anime, Mashle: Magic and Muscles, which I thought was GENIUS on their part. You can grab themed cream puffs and merch! I highly recommend going!!!

We first ordered this cake for my…read morebirthday, and my whole family loved it so much that we had to come back and get the same one for my mom's birthday. If you're a chocolate lover, this cake is a dream. It's rich and decadent without being overwhelming, incredibly moist, and has beautiful, prominent layers that make every bite satisfying. The frosting is smooth, creamy, and best of all, not overly sweet (the perfect Asian-approved level of sweetness!). They also added a chocolate "Happy Birthday" plaque for my mom, which was such a thoughtful finishing touch. Everyone at the party was asking where the cake was from. We'll definitely be making this our go-to spot for birthdays and special occasions!

Unfortunately, I wasn't quite as impressed with the coffee. I ordered an iced Americano, which just didn't stand out in terms of the coffee itself, and a latte that was pretty mid. The server was super nice, though, so no complaints about the service! I know this is a patisserie and not a specialty coffee shop, so I wasn't expecting the coffee to be the main attraction. That said, at $5.50 for an Americano and $6.50 for a latte, I'd say stop by for the pastries, but I'd probably skip the coffee.

Can't wait to try them again.

    Thank you for your response. I appreciate that you took the time to reply, but I believe your…read moreresponse misses the main issue. Good business etiquette is simple: when a business makes a mistake, it should acknowledge it, correct it immediately, sincerely apologize to the customer, and ensure the customer leaves satisfied. That builds trust and demonstrates accountability. Instead, much of your response focuses on explaining that the price tag may have been moved accidentally by staff or customers. Those are explanations, not accountability. This was one of the last two pieces left in the display, and the incorrect price tag should have been noticed well before my purchase. As I also stated in my response to the Agricultural Commissioner of Weights & Measures Inspector, I am almost certain that after I shared my experience and reviews on social media, the pricing discrepancies would have been already corrected. If that is the case, I genuinely hope those changes help make sure future customers are charged accurately and fairly. Regarding the Kyiv cake, my concern is relatively minimal compared to the pricing issue. It simply did not taste as good as it used to. It lacked the freshness and flavor we had previously enjoyed, and it tasted somewhat stale. This is the least of my concern. What concerns me most is the lack of accountability. Businesses earn customer loyalty by owning their mistakes, not by offering explanations for why they may have happened. A sincere apology, immediate correction and a commitment to making things right would have been a much more appropriate response.

Always a pleasant experience at these bakeries. This Glendale bakery café was clean, bright, and beautifully organized with a large variety of pastries, cakes, and drinks on display. I tried the Strawberry Soft Cream Cake, Berries cake, Curry Croquette, and their signature iced Korean lattes. The pastries were soft and flavorful without being overly sweet, and the cakes looked just as good as they tasted. The curry croquette wasn't a favorite of mine. It was my first time trying and the spices didn't amaze my palette. I will have to try their garlic bread next time if I feel like getting something savory. Their sweets are always a hit for me! Overall, the staff was friendly and greeted customers warmly as they come in. Small parking lot at this location but still worth the wait. Good visit!

The stores are clean, the service is perfectly fine, and there's a wide selection of baked goods. That said, I find the pastries overpriced for what you get. Most of the items I've tried have been average at best, especially considering the premium prices. The pastel de nata was disappointing--I've had much better versions at local dim sum restaurants. The black coffee was also a letdown. It was so bitter that I needed to add milk to make it drinkable, and I'm someone who normally enjoys black coffee. Overall, it's a convenient option if you're nearby and there aren't any better bakeries around, but I wouldn't go out of my way to visit.
