    Never would of discovered this place - until a friend suggested to go here while we were checking out the Christmas market nearby. Wasn't able to try the sweet donuts this time - However, the chicken burger was so delicious for something that looks so simple and basic. Chicken was melt away tender, could definitely have improved the batter volume a tad though , as it lacked some much needed crunch. The sweet tea was also very nice - super refreshing with a good balance of sweet and tea!

    Fried Chicken and Fried Pickles

    Knowing about the location opening on Main St in Vancouver, when I happened to see sign for Cream Pony on Lonsdale (and Lolo Lane), I wanted to give it try. Not so unexpected, it's a cute pink dominant space. I wasn't very hungry, so decided to share a 2 piece combo and two donuts with my family. As we placed an order, my kids were happy to see plenty of donut samples to try. My thoughts: - Donuts: Good. We tried the chocolate cake and jelly bomb, both which were good, but fighting a lot of local competition with equally good donuts. - Fried Chicken: Good. Very juicy meat and crispy skin. Did take longer than the 15 min posted. - Fried Pickles: My daughter liked them but I didn't. I found them too sour, and the skin was difficult to bite through - Sweet Tea: Good. Mostly tea, with a touch of sweetness, which is refreshing. The real stand out experience was the service. One of the owners was on staff, and she was absolutely great. She knew her regular visitors, and took extra time to check on them. The rest of the staff were very friendly and helpful. All more than expected for a fried chicken and donut spot. Overall, the food is good, but it's the ambiance and service that stands out.

    I mean... with a name like Cream Pony, how can you not? Yes, the name drew us in... but it was also recommended to us by some friends. Disappoint... it did not. We only tried their donuts cause we just ate but they offer fried chicken as well which I'm sure goes well with anything sweet. We just went with a 6-pack so we could test out some different flavors. Definitely creative names but the flavors reflected it as well. I'm a fritter guy so had to grab one of those but I enjoyed all of them. Really good donuts! The storefront is in an alleyway. You gotta park on the street and in this area it can be difficult at busy times. We had to circle a couple times but eventually got lucky with someone leaving. Overall, the donuts were amazing and I'd come back to pair it with some chicken to make it a full meal!

    Hot Nash Sandwich

    so good i literally took a plane, train, car and boat just to get here for a nashville hot chicken sandwich. cute little place and have gotten served quickly without a hitch every time i've come here. yeah, the donuts are good, but the chicken sandwich is even better.

    All of their donut flavours for the day

    Ambiance: 4.5/5 Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Originally I had come here a few months ago to try their donuts but they happened to be sold out for the day so I was looking forward to coming back! I went on a Saturday afternoon and they were fully stocked with all of the flavours. My family and I ended up getting a Boston cream, honey maple, and mini donuts to share. The chicken smelled delicious and they even had beyond meat vegan chicken but we were too full for that so just got the donuts. The space is super cute but there's not a lot of seating so it fills up pretty quick! We were lucky to snag a table in the corner but the place was full afterwards. As for the donuts, they tasted fresh and I liked the flavours but they're definitely more on the light cakey side, whereas I usually like mine a bit more chewy - but that's just personal preference. I also noticed that their pricing is a bit weird because 1 donut is $3.35, half a dozen is $20 (only 10 cents cheaper than buying 6 individual ones) and a dozen is $36. The staff was super patient and took the time to explain the flavours and we never felt rushed when ordering which was appreciated! Overall I would recommend this place if you're in the area and in the mood for a donut but I wouldn't make the trip out there for it.

    Giddy up! This neo-retro cafe / donut shop / sandwich shop / fried chicken shop and slushy lemonade luncheonette is a sight to behold. I stumbled upon it by accident while taking a shortcut down an alleyway. It was a dreary rainy day and this colourful wall mural just stuck out like sunshine shining through the clouds. Cream Pony is too adorable to keep a secret!

    No wonder cream poney has 4.5 on Google! They are located in a back alley in Lower Lonsdale and they serve delicious and fresh doughnuts and fried chicken The doughnuts exceeded my expectations! Even though we went at 3pm the doughnuts were still fresh and weren't too sweet. My favourite was the maple doughnut The fried chicken sandwich had a really soft bun and was loaded with sauce. The tater tots were extra crispy and the loaded tots had a delicious cheese sauce We tried: OG Fried Chicken Sandwich $14.50 Tater Tots $4.20 Loaded Tots $6 Pink Pony, Maple Eh, and Cookie Doh $3.35 each Iced Latte Food 5/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance 5/5 Parking 4/5

    Fried Chicken Sandwiches + Donuts? Yes please. Cream Pony was a nice spot to check out when in North Vancouver especially when you're craving something sweet and savory, because they have both! I enjoyed everything that we got: the Chocolate Dip Donut, OG chicken sandwich, and Tender Nuggs were all delicious!

    We came on a Saturday to pick up some donuts. We got the one with the chicken foot and the one with the jelly inside. The service was really nice and fast. There isn't much seating but there is a patio on the outside that is available as well which is nice. This place is really nicely decorated I would give this place a 3.5/5 based on the 2 donuts that I had. The one with the chicken foot on top was a little too sweet for me because of the icing on top. The dough was very soft and fluffy. The jelly bomb was filled to the brim with jelly. I love jelly donuts but this one didn't make it onto my top 3 jelly donuts list. Unfortunately the donuts were a bit disappointing to me (probably because I had overhyped these). That being said I would go back and try the fried chicken as it looked and smelled amazing. Can't wait to come back to try it

    Adorable spot, super friendly staff, quick service and great location for a pick up and picnic vibe. The chicken sandos are so delicious, with soft bread, tasty sauce and juicy chicken. The doughnuts are very aesthetically pleasing but sadly a lot of the cake ones are not the freshest - the jelly donuts do not disappoint though!!!

    The store front is located in an alleyway, but they have a hipster vibe with super cute decor. Honestly, terrazzo stone/print and the colour scheme is my absolute favorite combo. I came by on a Saturday afternoon, and there were waves of customers. I got a chicken sandwich ( they told me the hot Nash was real spicy, so I opted for a no-spice original) and half a dozen of their best donuts. I let them choose and expected to see some more unique donuts but got some more plain Jane ones. Not even a crueller ! But the package and other flavors were still great. They did have 5 dollar day old grab bags, but you couldn't see what was inside. The sandwich survived a 20 min drive home , and with a but of warming up, it was still juicy and somewhat crispy. I love a good chicken sandwich, but at first bite, I knew I should have tried the hot Nash or even the medium spice version. The levels are OG (no spice), Cajun ( medium), and hot Nash (hot). The food is not mind-blowing but definitely more of a 'for the gram' spot. Pricing adjusted the rating a bit. Would go again to try other donut flavors and the sandwiches!

    Ambiance: 5/5 - clean and nice vibe to the place. Dine-in is available. Food: 5/5 - rating is only for the donuts. I tasted the following: - lemon cake donut - their 'daily special'. If you like denser, cake-like donuts, this is ideal as it's not overcooked or too greasy. The icing is perfect. - chicken feet donut - A catchy name. It's a plain donut with not-too-sweet coloured icing with a gummy candy chicken foot. The donut is soft on the inside. - Jelly Donut - plain donut covered in sugar with not-so-sweet raspberry filling. Overall, donuts are fresh tasting without being too greasy. Have yet to try their fried chicken and beverages. They also offer 'day old' donuts for sale. Location: 3/5 - located in the ally between Esplanade & First St (northeast side). There's a sign on the sidewalk pointing to the place. A cute & cosy place to eat at. Parking: 4/5 - complimentary 1 hr parking on the street A great place to have fresh donuts whether you like them fluffy on the inside or like them more as a cake.

    Well hottttt dayuuuuummm I went to Nashville today! I came for the donuts but fell in love with the chicken sandwich!!! Cream Pony caught my eye with their cute looking donuts on IG & via my news thread. I have several 'must go to for donuts' hotspots located in downtown Vancouver. I can always get my donut fixins there & usually I'm 100% satisfied. So I must admit that it would be hard for me to grade these donuts here at Cream Pony without severe prejudice! I only tried one donut, a vanilla choclate ring & the jury is still out on how it was!?! However, my Nashville Chicken Sando was a hot fiyaaaaaaa in my mouth ... & I loved it!!! Took a taste bite of the OG sandwich & that was quite tasty as well, I do say! Yelpies it's a little tricky to get here so use the Google! When coming up towards 1st Ave on Lonsdale Ave, it's the alley right before 1st Ave called Lolo Lane! Please note that there is no visable sign saying - Lolo Lane! Yelpies if you want donuts, preorder them as they were selling like hotcakes while I was waiting in line!!! Otherwise come down for the chicken sandos as they are awesome!!! CP is an easy 10min walk from the Lonsdale Quay seabus terminal. Make a day trip of it then hangout at the Shipyards (see my review for pix) area by the water here on the fabulous North Shore.

    I finally get to try the donuts from Lucky. I have heard lots about it but somehow our paths never…read morecrossed till recently. I bought the apple bacon fritter because bacon. Who can resist bacon? I also got the peanut butter jelly donut to go. The apple bacon fritter was more like a bread texture. I liked the chewy texture and the bacon was delicious. I barely tasted any apple in my fritter though. But the bacon and maple glaze more than made up for the tiny amount of apple bits in my fritter. The glaze did make it a sticky mess to eat. I had the peanut butter jelly the next day. It was definitely a bit harder than if you had it on the same day. I took a bite before storing in a Tupperware, so that I could tell the difference. The donut was square shaped and it was chockfull of berry jelly inside. Some sections were oozing jelly when you bit into it. Be careful not to smear your face. At $4.50 each, I think the price is fair during this time when everything is expensive. But it is not that cheap you can have it everyday. Location is shared with 49th Parallel Coffee. It is a spacious coffee shop with patio seating. Parking is available on the streets around it.

    The good: -crowded…read more-hipster staff -lively atmosphere The "need for massive improvement": -sour coffee -dry donuts. Donuts are just another form of cakes. Had the Boston Creme and yet it is still dry. Very dry. Despite they have their in house bake shop.
