Honestly the waffle itself was crispy and had a great texture but I couldn't really taste any of the matcha. It was also fluffy when it's supposed to be a little more airy. I would only go back if I was around the area and really craving bubble waffles.

Thu P.

I got a "Portuguese" bubble waffle here, which is a bubble waffle with Portuguese egg tart custard filling! It was good, but not great. The egg tart filling flavour wasn't coming out as much as I've had at other bubble waffle establishments. But the bubble waffle was really good and had a crispy outer layer and chewy inside! Perfect for a soft mouth like mine. It was really busy so service was slow but expected as it takes time to cook a waffle fresh! I enjoyed watching the server make the different waffles while I waited. There's not much space to sit inside, so expect to enjoy your waffle elsewhere.

Love this place. My favorite is the Portuguese egg waffle which has custard in it! There is usually 8-10 minute wait but the staff is pretty chill too. There is usually a line so everyone else loves it too, but definitely drop by!

I've tried Mango Slush, Matcha Waffle and Hojicha Milk Tea so far Matcha Waffle and Hojicha Milk tea were the best things ever! Mango Slush wasn't bad at all. Hojicha Milk Tea has this toasty milk tea flavour with milky taste similar to Roasted Milk Tea from Chatime. Matcha Waffle ($6.99) was freshly made and mochi pieces were squishy. I think the mochi pieces were packaged Bingsoo toppings from a grocery store. Matcha Wafffle seemed kind of expensive, but the after taste of green tea was slightly bitter and sweet. It was pretty good. You really gotta try the Hojicha Milk Tea it was so yummy!

After trying one of their milk teas on a rainy winter day, I'm ecstatic for Eggstatic! Sorry, I had to. Anyway, located in the crystal mall right next to an entrance, this tiny place was packed with customers when I went on a weekend afternoon after having accompanied the fam in buying some groceries. They have a few small tables and chairs and a counter to order from, and that's about it, but a lot of people, mostly a younger crowd, were dropping by to get their boba fix. I waited quite a while for my order that day. Granted I'm not an expert at boba in the Burnaby area, but coming from SoCal where the milk tea flows almost as freely as water, I was pleasantly satisfied with my order. I tried their Hojicha on 30% sugar. I opted for no boba since I wasn't in the mood for it so I can't comment on that; however the milk tea was solid. Definitely pop by this place for a drink if you are in the Crystal Mall!

On the way out of Crystal Mall, we decided to stop at Cafe Eggstatic for something sweet. We decided to share a bubble waffle and I got myself an iced jasmine green tea to go. You can adjust the sweetness and ice level to your personal preference. The wait was crazy, I don't know why it takes so long for them to make a waffle, I think we waited for 10-15 minutes. There seemed to be a backup on waffle making. We ended up getting the classic authentic HK style egg waffle, which was hot and tasty when warm. As others have mentioned, it was chewy like rice mochi and crispy on the edges. If only it didn't take so long to make! But the fresh quality ALMOST made it worth it. Great for the on the go snack!

Dana S.

Really enjoyed my bubble tea from here! The tea itself had a fresh taste and a slight brown sugar flavour, and the texture of the pearls was super good, soft and chewy. The people who served me were quite nice, and the prices for tea are cheaper than a lot of comparable places. Only thing to be aware of is that some drinks can only be ordered hot, which is not shown on the menu. Didn't order an egg waffle, but thought it was cool that they make them in front of you and the smell was heavenly.

Kay F.

We stopped by Cafe Eggstatic as their menu caught my eye while we were in Crystal Mall. We got their High Mountain Oolong Milk Tea and their Matcha & Mochi bubble waffle. Being a lifelong fan of bubble waffle, theirs was very fresh and tasty especially out of the oven! Their milk tea was okay but with so many other choices for bubble tea in the area, I would probably choose somewhere else to go.

Matcha Oreo Smoothie and Cream Float with Genmaicha

Gloria F.

Finally decided to try their bubble tea. I ordered the Cream float with Genmaicha. The drink was fragrant and it went very well with the cream float. I wish I ordered the drink with less sugar because the cream was also very sweet. My husband ordered the matcha oreo smoothie. It can use more oreos. The shop was always busy whenever we are at Crystal Mall. There are a few tables but I would probably take our drinks to go. The drink prices may seem more pricey but if you like flavors like Genmaicha like me, then its worth it. I would say its a must try! #loveGenmaicha

Denise W.

Well very standard kind of drinks. They are located inside Crystal mall first floor. I do find their prices cheaper than their competitors. Egg waffle is less than $4 and the places in Richmond or nearby sells it around $5.50. I see a lot of people buying. Also line up and wait is around 10 to 15 mins. Its a really small place so mostly for people to pickup to go. I got the peach calpris drink (green tea base). It was good. The drink is less than $4 after tax. Good prices. Cheaper than upstairs food court.

Emma L.

Came here to try their bubble waffle, got the combo hk bubble waffle and hk milk tea. Upgraded to matcha mochi bubble waffle which is 100% worth it! Each bite had a piece of mochi in it. Pearls were nice and soft, milk tea was subtle but I loved it that way.

Cheese bubble waffle. Chewy inside, crunchy outside. Good stuff.

Harriette L.

Consistently good bubble waffles! I've been here more times than I've checked in. I have tried all three of their bubble waffle flavours: plain, cheese, and chocolate and they are all good! Their bubble waffles are crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside. The cheese and chocolate flavours provide a nice contrast in flavour to a plain bubble waffle. If you plan on coming here often, get their stamp card which gets you a free bubble waffle after every 10 you buy!

Roasted Oolong Milk Tea - 30% sugar, no ice.

Cyn C.

Second visit: Back here again to improve on my first visit - got a Roasted Oolong Milk Tea, 30% sugar, NO ice this time. The no ice was a winner, as I could really taste the strong Oolong tea which I'm in LOVE with! Plus even without the ice it was cold enough. Did not really taste the sugar at all, so I'm thinking of going no sugar next time. I forgot which review it was, but the reviewer mentioned sipping to really taste the tea - and this was spot on. Sip that ish and you'll have an enjoyable drink for close to 2 hours. I absolutely feel a difference mood-wise when I drink Oolong regularly probably because it's semi-fermented so it's a bit like green tea (calming, stress reducing) and black tea (slightly stimulating/more alert). I just feel a sense of wellness wash over me, and nothing really bothers me. Let's be honest, bubble/milk tea isn't really considered a health drink, but this is as close as it gets if you minimize the sugar. Chatime is still superior to Eggstatic in tea strength and milky consistency, but it costs more for a smaller cup ($4.50 at Eggstatic vs. $4.94 at Chatime). With that said, this is going to be my go to for a while. Highly recommend their teas with no ice and a lot less sugar!

The bubble waffle is nothing special and the bubble tea is not spectacular. I have been here a few times and to be honest, the smell of the waffle just can't be ignored. The wait for it can be painfully long if they're busy (you can see all the sad faces waiting for their bubbles). So to wait 5 - 10 mins for a bubble waffle, it better taste damn freaking good. The batter is a little bit too starchy for my liking and once it gets cold it's basically inedible. I've had others that are still tasty when cooled down so I know there's a difference. I had an experience where i ordered a mango slush and it was sooo watery that I had to get another one made. The second time tasted how it should, but having the first one come through as basically a yellow water drink was not acceptable.. Especially for a bubble tea place in the mecca of burnaby chinatown. read more

I only ordered a bubble waffle because I got my bubble tea elsewhere in the mall. Service is okay. I watch a girl working behind the counter making her drink and then sipping on her own drink concoction while on the job. I am pretty sure that was not allowed when I worked in the food industry? My bubble waffle was good as expected. No complaints on the bubble waffle. read more

I like their green tea line of drinks, I mean it's the only line I've tried so far. The teas are not the best but decent compare to many bubble tea places in town or nearby the area. Do note that the bubbles are not sweetened (maybe they are but not excessive like some bubble tea place) which I don't mind at all, as it still has a nice and chewy texture like it is suppose to be. If you do have a sweet tooth you might want to consider requesting for a slightly sweeter drink than the level of sweetness you usually would from other places. Tea - 6/10 Bubbles/boba/pearls - 7 But most part of my stars are for the bubble waffles. I ordered their original and all I can say is, wow. it is the best I have had so far in Vancouver. It is crispy, eggy, and delicious all at the same time. I personally think it is better than Bubble Queen and that bubble waffle place in Aberdeen. Even though I only tried the original, I don't think the other flavor will be that much worse so, definitely going back for bubble waffles. Bubble waffles - 9!! read more

Love the bubble waffles here! But the three stars is for the slow and bad service. I know that bubble waffles take awhile to make, but the people making them were distracted and preferred to chat with their coworkers over doing their job. Worse of all! They gave my bubble waffle to another person and didn't even apologize upon me notifying them of the mistake. I had the next number and had waited a good 30mins for it. But they skipped my number!

Visited the place to check out their specialty birds nest drinks. However, when I went they were already sold out! Pretty disappointing really considering the fact that I was there at 1pm. Onto what I actually ordered, I had their house special green milk tea with pearls. Growing up Taiwanese and a self-proclaimed "bubble tea connoisseur", there was nothing authentic about the taste of their tea. It was mainly sugar and creamer. I will give an extra star though because their pearls were prepared very well in both flavour and texture. The lineup was also very long. All in all, it won't be a place for me to get bubble tea, but if I'm in Crystal Mall with a sudden craving, this would probably be my first choice. read more

I was visiting Crystal Mall today and really wanted to have bubble waffle. I was only able to locate this place and another place in the food court that had bubble waffle (I was actually expecting more places to have bubble waffles to be honest, just like Pacific Mall in Toronto). I decided to get my bubble waffle at this place because the other place didn't have HK Milk tea (because I wanted that too) so I didn't bother getting my bubble waffle there. I ordered my bubble waffle at this place. The server that was at the cashier was nice and friendly. However, they had three other people beside the server at the cashier working there, yet it took a long time for me to get my bubble waffle AND it was the only thing I ordered. In addition, there weren't that many people before me to begin with. When I finally got my bubble waffle, I have to say I was disappointed in the taste and texture of the bubble waffle. It was too chewy and the flavor was just sub-par. I definitely have had better in Toronto and for cheaper too. Maybe there drinks here is better, but I don't think I would try ..... read more

Good bbt joint inside Crystal Mall! I ordered the classic milk tea with pearls -- ultimate test how good a bbt place can be IMO -- if they can get the basics right then that's a good sign! The tea was smooth and service was great. Upon ordering they asked me what level of sweetness and amount of ice you want which was nice so you know right off the bat you can personalize your drink. They were busy but everyone working behind the bar was super friendly. Service with a smile! (which I can appreciate as it's often rare for most bbt cafés). read more

The liquid part was kinda "meh" for me. I think the best thing we ordered was the matcha soft serve ice cream. On the flip side, there was a guy playing piano there and they were taking requests. I suggested Demon Slayer and the guy played the famous "Gurenge" song by Lisa from season one of Demon Slayer. That was kinda cool. He was a very good pianist. Great way to liven the atmosphere. Also, there was a guy who came around and gave us all tiny paper cranes. It's nothing much, but still always nice to be gifted with anything at all. Business must be hard for them. It would sure be nice to see them return to how they used to be, with a bigger menu, tastier drinks and more days/hours again. We love this place for the manga/ anime vibes that it exudes, and love the Matcha soft serve ice cream they sell here. Really wanna give this place a higher rating but the drinks were really not up to par this time, and as much as we love the Matcha ice cream, it is not by itself enough to warrant giving out a higher rating. If they could just improve the quality of their drinks again...then even if they menu remains limited, at least if everything they serve is of good quality...that would be enough to merit a higher rating.

I bought their cream puffs and everyday they only have 2 flavors - vanilla and matcha, and 1 changing mystery flavor. Today was strawberry. The matcha was really good but the strawberry was lacking in flavor. Because the choix pastry is flavorless, it relies on a strong cream flavor. I wish they post their flavors online somewhere but I haven't found their website or socials yet. I would totally come back if they have cool flavors. One thing I'd say is that there was too much cream so when I opened the box it was a little messy. They had a special of buy 5 cream puffs and get a free special tea. It was an oolong milk tea. Not bad but the tea flavor wasnt very strong. If they can improve on that, it would be really delicious. Service is really good here. The server was very kind and nice to explain everything to me.

This place is just across the Amazing Brentwood mall. I asked the staff what's their specialty and…read moreshe said their cheesecakes are really good especially their original one. I ordered their sweet potato cheesecake instead because I have never tried it before. It sure didn't disappoint! The cheesecake is creamy and not overly sweet. We also ordered a latte and a lavender oat latte. Their latte isn't too strong but their lavender oat latte is good. There is a strong lavender flavor. I think their best dessert is their tiramisu. It's huge! Totally worth the money! We went just before dinner and surprised that the place is actually quite busy. There is limited underground parking available but there are lots of street parking.

The service was quick and we snagged the last open table. The interior was eclectic and the outdoor style chairs that were used for inside seating were a bit uncomfortable but it all contributed to this intimate, non chain, independent cafe. The strawberry matcha latte was a standout! The real strawberry pieces mixed within were delightful. The maple latte was just average. Nothing at all exciting to report. For some reason it lacked luster. Unfortunately it was enough to cot them a star.

With the exception of the cold milk pudding with mango that I got as a to go order, that one was perfect. Service was a bit lacking, nobody gave our table the QR code to order till a good 10-15 mins after we were sitting and looking around for an extra menu to share between the 5 of us. Cute spot and decor but if I was craving Chinese dessert again, I would likely line up for The First Dessert Vancouver instead.

I really enjoyed the koobideh kabab (beef). It's affordable for the portion size. The beef was well seasoned and had a nice grill taste to it. It also contains a green pepper but be careful because the pepper is super super spicy. It was my first time having the eggplant dip and I enjoyed it. I think there's not enough bread for the amount of dip but you can get more bread for an additional $3. The fried mint on top was good but interesting as I've never had fried mint before. They also gave the crispy bottom of the rice pot to snack on later on and that was a great surprised. It was a friends birthday and they gave the napoleon dessert. I highly recommend getting the dessert, it was very delicious!!

We were greeted right away by a staff member and seated when a table was available such wasn't long as there was an empty around the corner. We were given menus and menu sheets to order. He didn't give us a pencil or pen but I had one. We decided to get 2 orders of xlb, wontons in chili oil, boiled pork/chives dumplings and hk style curry fish balls. If you don't order drinks there is complimentary water machine for hot/ cold water and a self serve sauce bar. Bowls are also located there. At the table are disposable chopsticks and spoons as well as napkins. After filling out the paper wifey brought it up front to the staff to fill. As we waited for the food i created my sauce. The food arrived and looked good as any dumplings should. The wonton on chili oil was tasty and I liked them. The wrap seemed a bit loose so maybe over cooked by a little bit but not a big deal breaker. The chives dumplings were yummy. Not huge but a decent reasonable size. Tasty as well and the wrapper wasn't overly thick and had a good chew. The curry fish balls were ok. Not bad but not great. The xlb were very nice. Wrapper not to thick, not thin either but acceptable thickness. Plenty of soup inside and decently tasty. The meat filling itself is also tasty. Very good meal and would go back in the area for decent xlb.
