Interior air purifier
Stefan T.

The best cream puff around. Store boasting big luxury seat, puffs to order and a massive air purification system that scrubs the air in the dining room. The best cream puffs around. Made to order so there is never a soggy bottom. Nobody likes a soggy bottom. Thats never good. Vanilla or chocolate or flavor of the day fillings combined with countless shells makes for seemingly infinite options to satisfy everyone. S'mores was very satisfying with vanilla bean filling. Oh Piggy. Flavorful authentic vanilla bean filling with a non soggy shell and a bit of a crunch to the chocolate covered goodness. Perfectly toasted marshmallows on top. I'm seriously searching Zillow to see if there is a reasonably priced home very nearby so that I could always be within walking distance. Wonderful dining area. Big luxury seat that my kitty would make himself home in. Ridiculously comfortable looking. When compared to the Castro Valley location I really admire all the little personal touches here. A massive air purification system had me swooning. Interior air quality couldn't have been better. Often times bakeries have a stuffy feeling to them but not here. It was Starbucks quality air. Pleasant to the nose and you could tell this industrial sized system was tirelessly scrubbing all the air and many many cubic feet per minute. A perfect experience. I love a bakery that does one thing and does that one thing better than anybody else. I could confidently serve these desserts to discriminating family members on a holiday - and its so very sad to say the average bakery out there I wouldn't dream of such a thing.

Chocolate, s'mores, crème brûlée and ube
Samantha D.

A must try if you love eclairs! I haven't had Beard Papas in years since I went to their SF location. It was as amazing as I remembered! I got the Ube, chocolate, smores and crème brûlée. Don't ask me which was my favorite because I'll say all 4. It does have a LOT of filling in my opinion, but some may prefer that. I scraped off a good amount just because of preference. The employee was really sweet and helped me decide, she was quick and the establishment was very clean!

We came here first and foremost to get their Mashale standee, free with a purchase of their Mashale 6-pack. If you didn't know, Mashale is an anime series. We told the owner (I believe) that we came just for the standee, and he was quite surprised which is fine. I know we don't look like the typical people who would like Anime...(surprise!) I asked how they came to collab with Mashale. He said he didn't know much about the show which made me think, then why are you selling Mashale stuff. He said that corporate sends them the Mashale merch and they just promote it, so it's out of obligation. I felt like he was also low-key making fun of us for liking the series w/some of the comments he made. Like when someone yucks your yum. Like do you not want us to buy then? Hubby agreed that he also felt that, and usually he's very chill and doesn't let things bother him. That's not cool and everyone has their own preferences and likes. I tried to ask what the flavors were since it's a pre-set 6 pack, but w/the langauge barrier, I don't think he understood me. I scanned their menu board but didn't see the flavors listed or the fillings. So we walked out not fully knowing what we got. Once we got home, we looked up the flavors online and made more sense. lol. Again, we came just for the standee so it took us 3 days to eat the 6 puffs. 2 each day :) made for a nice dessert and we share sweets anyways since we don't have a big sweet tooth. so 6 puffs was more than enough.

Dubai chocolate and Oreo

I haven't had a Beard Papa's in years and when I came here, their menu has expanded. The pastry options are almost the same with new ones like honey butter and s'mores. The fillings are vanilla, chocolate or ube custard. They also now offer a variety of drinks and shaved ice desserts. They also have the Dubai chocolate. Surprisingly not too sweet, real crushed pistachios but no pistachio cream. The interior also have claw machines and nice photo op backdrops. The staff are nice and friendly.

Everybody here was very nice thank you! Everything I ordered was very good and the free strawberry limeade drink was delicious Will definitely be back came from Patterson!

Inside
Rhonda R.

We walked by on a Sunday late afternoon and it was empty inside. It was extremely clean with cutest little decor. Plenty seating available inside. The service was GREAT!!!! We didn't know it was a buy one get one original free and upon check out she was nice enough to let us know and gave us that discount without even knowing! Super honest and kind. It definitely is pricey for individual pastry average $4.50 for one, it's also veryyyyy messy as the first. It's got the filling everywhere BUT it was super tasty and the service alone will make me go back. Due to the cost, I will likely keep my eye out for more BOGO offers as then it's super worth it!!

Ube Custard Drink
Randy V.

Food ok Service ok Ambiance ok Ok the cream puffs are way over priced and the custard drink was not good. I would not be coming back again.

Kris N.

An unfortunately disappointing place. I had some decently high hopes, at least for their drinks. But they were absolutely flavorless. Just tasted like unflavored cream. The ambiance is decent enough and I liked their like toy vending machine though. The person working the register was a tad off putting though.

If you're craving dessert in Tracy, try Beard Papa's cream puffs! I love their cookies and cream filled with matcha or vanilla bean. I would recommend their matcha and cookies and cream puffs! We walked into Beard Papa's and it was not too busy. The man preparing our order was efficient and friendly! He even dropped our order to us when he was finished preparing it. One situation is the parking, but they do have parking behind their building also.

Strawberry with strawberry cheesecake custard
Stevi B.

I was confident I wouldn't be a fan of any time of puff with cream in it (unless it was ice cream of course...) but I was so wrong! I've been in to Beard Papa's a couple of times now and my top to favorites are the Oreo one with the vanilla custard and the strawberry one with the strawberry cheesecake custard! (Pretty sure that one was a Flavor of the Month.) This place will definitely be my go to for a guilty pleasure when it's time for a treat. The puffs are nice and airy and the cold custard is packed with flavor. My only advice... don't eat them in the car. :-D Service is consistently friendly and helpful and the store is kept very clean and presentable.

We recently were made aware of Beard Papa's and decided to try them out this week. What a gem of an addition to Tracy! We took the short drive from Manteca and found parking just in front of their location. The decor is nice and very colorful. We were promptly greeted and ordered immediately. Don't be fooled, this may be a cream puff place, but they have a variety of options to choose from! A flavor everyone in the family will enjoy! They'll even do catering for large events! I ordered the strawberry cream puff with cream cheese filling and my wife ordered the crème brûlée cream puff. Both of them were absolutely incredible! I also ordered the strawberry lemonade, which was refreshing, I just wish I had more! If you like cream puffs or are looking for a fun dessert place, give Beard Papa's a try, you won't regret it!

Ube cream puff with vanilla filling
Gina R.

This place is so good and another yelper said it reminded them of cream puffs from Hawaii, and I have to agree. The inside is so cute and my child, myself, and my mom loved eating our treats inside. There was no weird smell so that's great, it seems like they were able to address that. The service was nice too and we were about to ask for cups of water and the owner's husband(?) came by our table and brought us some! It was like he was reading our minds! He even brought a mini plain cream puff sample for my little one. The cream puffs are delicious because the filling was cold, thick, and flavorful. They also have many different flavors and combinations on rotation. I'm so glad this store opened in Tracy! I'm looking forward to coming here again soon.

Cute box and tasty ube shake
Steph C.

I love it when expectations are met. That's the experience I had when coming to Beard Papa's this month. Here's the scoop: Delicious selection. And easy to order instructions. I've visited other locations before so I knew the drill. Try the ube shake, it's soo good. The creme brulee was the best thing. The cream filling options were vanilla and ube. Here my warning: the cream is the perfect sweetness balance and they fill the puffs a lot, so prepare for cream dripping out with the first bite! Just be prepared to lick your fingers haha Clean location. Like, pristine. It's brand spankin new so it's to be expected. Bright and inviting. Loving all the yellow and multiple tables to enjoy a treat Street parking only but the location is perfect with open spots just around the corner by the residential side of downtown. No public restroom. Plan accordingly.

Crazy that it has taken me so long to get in here for the first time- but it did not disappoint!…read moreWhile there were multiple selections I could have caved to, I went the caffeine route with the Affogato with the chocolate covered strawberry and coffee krunch gelatos. Looking forward to trying other flavors!

Review #1,000 Posted on 2.11.26…read more We've been coming to Aldo's for around 8 years now, basically as long as we've lived in Tracy, most recently for some gelato togo on Sunday the 21st of December 2025. My wife & I also hired Aldo's to do the dessert at our kids birthday party our 1st year in Tracy as well, it was a huge hit. Hard to find anyone who doesn't love gelato. My favorite flavor overall since I've been going there is "cookies" They do a good job rotating flavors too. They usually have a few test flavors in their main display for people to choose. They also have a few keto flavors typically as well. They carry custard, vanilla or chocolate, and sorbets too. Lots to choose from. Rich, Michelle, & the crew are all super nice, and give great customer service & a great product. One thing this place is really good at, is being open. Local business we've noticed, close pretty early, or sometimes aren't even open when they say they are. If I go to Aldo's before 10 pm, I don't think I've ever seen them closed. Give this local family owned spot a try.

They brought out a pitcher of water to help yourself to refill with water which is always great in my opinion. The order I got was the mixed fruit crepe, which is roughly 8 layers thick, with Nutella filling. The fruits on it starting at the tip is apples, strawberries, kiwis, and finally bananas. I liked the design and taste of the crepe a lot. I do recommend to switch out the Nutella for a lighter filing such as vanilla cream or cream cheese to complement the fruits, but the Nutella was still just as good. Overall, I highly recommend this place, and will revisit again to try out their soups/ramen/rice dishes most definitely.
