    After attending an event here, whenever I go into this mall I stop at bears pappas, yup it's that good especially when you get the pastry with ice cream in the middle mmmmm. Service is always good, helpful and quick.

    The first time I had Beard Papa's was yearssss ago in Boston and when I heard that they had a location in Queens, I was so excited. This one is located on the basement level of Skyview Mall, towards the end where you would turn in for the supermarket. It's kind of easy to miss since they also share the space with Gong Cha. There's a few seats for you inside for those who want to eat it there but it's more of a grab and go item. They take your order and fill the shells with cream on the spot so it's basically made fresh to order. It also keeps the shell crispy so there's a lovely texture contrast when you eat it with the delicious filling. I love their cream puffs cause they don't skimp on the cream (it literally oozes out with each bite). I also love their flavored shells (taro, oreo, strawberry, etc.) cause the glaze is delicious and does capture its intended flavor. The cream inside is also yummy. I highly recommend eating it as soon as possible, if not immediately, for prime freshness. I usually eat it within minutes of getting it (especially in the summer when it's suuuper hot out) and it does not disappoint!

    Beard Papa's cream puffs always have a special place in my heart. They're light, fluffy, and airy - basically, everything a cream puff should be. Over the years, I've sampled a variety of their small cream puffs, and they never disappoint. On a recent visit, I decided to try their green tea cream puff and strawberry cream puff. Both came out slightly cold, making them the perfect snack for a hot summer day. * Strawberry Cream Puff ($4.2) The best way I can describe this is like strawberry Pocky in cream puff format. Fluffy, light, and airy - it's like biting into a strawberry cloud. Didn't realize this was a limited flavor when I tried this but super happy I got it. Prefer this better than the green tea flavor. * Green Tea Cream Puff ($4.1) The green tea topping/glaze has a strong white chocolate taste rather than green tea. I was hoping for a bolder green tea flavor here. Good thing I filled it with green tea, which was pretty standard - think green tea Pocky vibes. If you haven't tried Beard Papa's yet, you're seriously missing out. These cream puffs are a dream come true!

    Great cream puffs - they are so large and airy . I tried the basic recipe cream puff and one green tea cream puff. Both were really tasty. There are many chocolate topped ones for chocoholics. Price is pretty reasonable. Nice employees too !

    Green Tea cream Puff S'mores cream puff

    I don't remember the cream puffs being so cold. The green tea was flavorful but nothing special. The s'mores had vanilla custard and it was average. I liked that the custard is light, smooth and airy.

    Little shop hidden in the corner. Shared space. Light and airy cream puffs. Special flavors of the week? and the basic ones. Strawberry is seasonal flavor. Limited seating in the store. No wait service. Order and pickup at the counter. Cashier tries to be friendly and help

    Awesome cream puffs! I love their custard-like cream filling with crunchy outside. Tried original and green tea flavor and both are really delicious!! Quick service and easy to walk in and take out your puffs of choice!

    It's been a while but the food has never changed. My go-to cream puffs are: 1. Honey butter 2. Green tea 3. Oreo 4. S'mores I'm not into cream puffs like that but everytime in skyview i crave it and have to get it!

    My friend grabbed these puffs on her way back from NYC. After an 4-hour drive, these puffs still tasted great. I don't really know the names of the puffs so I'll just break them down by color. Chocolate looking puff: the cream and the chocolate complement each other so well! The cream oozes out from the side after each bite. Green looking puff: the taste was good. This was the only puff that I heated it up a bit and the flavors are still there. Pink looking puff: my mom ate the pink one and said every bite was rich in flavor. I really liked the fact that each bite essentially had three layers of flavor: sweet, creamy, and a bit of a pastry taste on the bottom of each bite. When I visit NYC, I would love to try these puffs when they're hot and fresh!

    Purple ube with green tea ice cream was so delicious!! My friend got the cheesecake and it was really small but really yummy

    Strawberry Beard Papa's
    Debra F.

    It was a great reminder of when we had them in Japan! Not overly sweet, very fluffy and light, and the crust was flaky. It's inside the mall and seafood market so you will be surrounded by those smells. The service was very nice and helpful in our order.

    Creme Brulee Puff with Vanilla Filling
    Laura G.

    This location of Beard Papa's is located downstairs in Skyview Mall, partially sharing its space/seating area with the Gong Cha next-door. Although it has a pretty small setup, the service was quite quick. There are some tables and chairs for indoor seating, but the chairs are very visibly soiled/dirty. Another thing to note is that you'll need to hit the $5 minimum before you can pay with credit card. Creme Brulee Puff with Vanilla Filling: At first glance, the cream puff is significantly smaller than what I'm used to during my visits to other Bears Papa's locations in the past, which was a bit disappointing. It was nice that the creme brulee portion of the puff was warm, in contrast to the cooler filling inside. The vanilla filling was not too sweet at all, which was pleasant.

    Chocolate Eclair Puff
    Jason L.

    Came here to try the chocolate cream puff with vanilla powder. It taste sweet and fragile. The texture was smooth. Service was good and the place is clean. Has many other options. Many flavours for cream puffs. Suitable for a small dessert.

We got the ginger milk pudding. Do think it's a bit pricey ($10) since it's an easy dessert to make but I guess it's all the theatrics. They pour the dessert in front of you and put a sand glass on top. Once sand glass is done, so is the dessert and you can even rest a spoon on top. The dessert is very smooth, barely a solid, and its ginger taste is very strong- which I like. Strong ginger but pairs well with the milk and good amount of sugar. It is a bit spicy but I like it this way. They do have a lot of other desserts as well as savory items on the menu. Intrigued by their savory menu and will definitely come back to try them next time.

    Located right to Tangram mall, this dessert spot is a bit hidden and looking in, you might suspect…read morethat there's not much going on. But, this spot hides a really cozy space to enjoy some desserts with friends. Service here is pretty quick, and kind. I got their soy milk shaved ice and it was so good. The shaved ice was light and it tasted exactly like soy milk (which I love). It also came with cheese foam, ice cream, and mochi. It was the perfect dessert that wasn't too heavy or sweet. Would love to come back to try some of their other items.

    Looking for a late night dessert place? This would definitely be the spot to go!…read more Whenever I am in flushing and have a sweet tooth but everything has already started to close, I always find myself at this location. Not only are they opened later than a lot of dessert places that I have found in flushing but their desserts are also great! This time around my friends and I got the Fresh Coconut Pudding with Golden Crisp Rice and it did not disappoint. Firstly, the pudding in itself was not overly sweet but had a strong coconut flavor. The texture was perfect in the sense that the pudding wasn't too hard inside and the golden rice crisp was a delicious finish on top. It added a nice crunch to the bite and also gave like a toasted coconut feel when tasted together with the pudding. The second thing we got was like a durian mango sago. I am a big fan of durian so I really enjoyed this dessert. The durian was perfectly sweet and custard and the mangos were sweet but tangy giving the dessert a little more depth. Although I only got two desserts this time around, I do want to point out that their shaved ice is not something that you should miss out on either. I have had many of the flavors and have never been disappointed. It is super fluffy and milky and just melts as soon as it hits your tongue. It is something that I order majority of the time that I dine in (they have a big variety so I just switch it up). The experience at this dessert shop is always great and since they have a call button for whenever you need a server, it feels a little more intimate and private!

In contrast, the Jasmine Milk Tea lacked a bold floral punch. The desserts are rly cute and very instagrammable but the flavors are fairly average Jasmine Mousse Flower: beautiful to look at but also tasteless Bunny Pudding: Very nostalgic!

    Decided to stop by on a rainy day to finally see what's all the buzz/hype about Naisnow since there…read moreweren't too many people inside when I took a peek from the windows outside. My initial thought when seeing only several people in there, "mhm yes ~ perfect timing to check it out today!" Pushed through the heavy glass doors and stepped in. There're two floors in total, the lower floor to get the scrumptious goodies and seating/tables on the upper floor. Ambience wise is pretty much based off a signature light lime green concept which is supposed to represent "being healthy" and "plant involved ingredients." All the baked treats are contained in a glass display case with a warm light above to highlight the best side/angles of their sweet and savory tarts. This marketing technique is definitely effective as it would drive customers to have a higher chance of buying a tart or two and making the golden flaky crusts look more mouthwatering under the light. The ordering process wasn't too bad with only a mom and four kids in front of me. Shortly afterwards, it was my turn to place my order. I decided on the Bacon Potato Salad Tart and originally the Super Whole Lemon Tea. But then, I was informed by the cashier that I couldn't get no ice for that drink. So, I asked which drinks I could get that didn't have ice. Staff replied that only the Super Orange Jasmine Tea under Fresh Fruit Teas & the other 4 drink options under Light Milk Tea that won't have ice. Opted for the Super Orange Jasmine Tea instead in the end. Paid in cash but you can also pay with credit/debit card. Staff didn't have any smile (just a poker face expression). Not even a fake smile of any kind. He wasn't rude but I could tell he didn't wanna be there. Anyway, I waited about 5-10 mins and glanced at the LED screen from time to time to see when my order # would be called (trying to see if my order was ready yet). Got my orange tea drink placed in a single cardboard drink holder to be secured and made sure that it won't spill/topple over. There was a plastic straw in green paper wrapper. The tart was placed inside a brown paper bag with a see-through opening. Everything was placed neatly inside the green reusable bag. Took my order upstairs and hopefully would be able to find somewhere to sit down. Luckily for me, I found an empty table towards the front of the seating area. However, I was somewhat disgusted by the few long hair strands + pastry crumbs + a smear of dried matcha paste stuck/left all over the dirty table from the previous customer as soon as I had sat down. So, you can see that the employees don't really care about the cleanliness of its seating area upstairs since nothing gets cleaned/wiped down especially not the tables. Fine, whatever. I quickly used a napkin in my hand to tidy up the mess. Started taking everything out from the green reusable bag. Sure glad I did, otherwise I would've never noticed and just left with the wrong thing. Found out that the staff had given me the wrong tart. The paper bag somehow felt really light in weight before turning over to see that it was the signature caramel flavor instead of the bacon potato salad tart. Went downstairs again by the pickup section informing one of the staff that I didn't get the savory tart. Showed my order on the receipt as proof and gave the caramel egg tart back to the staff. He quickly said "sorry about that" then proceeded to exchange with me for the correct tart right away. Went back upstairs and my table was still empty. Made myself comfy and settled in. Took a sip of the Super Orange first and it was refreshing indeed w/o any ice and only 25% sugar. Can't imagine how many sips I would even get out of it...had it been filled with the "less ice" option, since you know that "less ice" is never truly "less ice" in reality either. More like half a cup of ice. Plus, the fruity tea had few slices of lemon, orange, and lime. But, that's the main reason why I would often opt for the no ice version if I could help it. It's poured inside a sturdy plastic cup. Just the right amount of sweetness with the 25% sugar + refreshing feeling from the citrus slices. The fragrant jasmine tea taste was clearly visible in the entire drink itself. (4/5 - $6.90) The Bacon Potato Salad Tart was stored in a disposable cardboard container. Now, this was how the savory tart should've weighted....heavy in my hand. My long lost tart...the symmetrical-looking golden pastry with its flaky crust! Normally, I don't go for flaky pastries of any kind so hopefully this better be above average for the money spent = worthwhile. The texture of the potato bits resting on the tart with just the right amount of seasoning. The chewy consistency of mozzarella cheese melting in my mouth. The tart was warm & not "straight out of the oven hot." (4/5 - $4.50)

    I really like how the pastry looks so unique and different from other Asian bakeries I've been to…read more Ordering your food is fast because it's readily available. The only thing youll have to wait for is if you order a drink which I did. I had the green tea coconut and it was not what I was expecting, didnt taste sweet and just taste like grass. It tasted very green. The pastry looked amazing but didnt taste that amazing. Also if you are expecting to eat with a fork, they dont have that. They do however have plastic gloves that they give you and you eat with plastic gloves on. I thought that was a bit weird and felt quite barbaric. I understand eating something like Cajun seafood with gloves on but with pastries, that was definitely a first. There are some seats upstairs and it didnt feel crowded or too busy. I wouldnt come back here though since my family and I did not find anything to be spectacular or even just acceptable.
