Spicy popcorn chicken was very spicy. It was pretty crispy & moist enough. The five spice powder flavor was strong & it & the spiciness were cut by the Thai sweet chili sauce dip. read more

ordered the plum lemonade, tasted extremely bad, liquid was so thick. I had all of my friends try it and they thought it was equally as bad. don't come here, workers did not care read more

2023-02-20. Honey Bear. Pacific Mall food court. So after a disappointing experience with the Taiwanese popcorn chicken from Hot Star, I was still craving it so I decided to give Honey Bear a try (when in Rome right?) After placing my order, I was told that it would be about a 10 minute wait. They weren't kidding. It took over 10 minutes for me to get my popcorn chicken. The chicken meat was dark meat which was different than Hot Star which used white meat, and it was really juicy. Too juicy in fact, even for dark meat. So I'm guessing it was injected with brine. The breading and flavor was definite that of Taiwanese style chicken and better than Hot Star. The flavor was simply just more prominent. Portion wise it was also more on par with what I expected, and came with about a dozen chicken nugget sized pieces. Costing $0,50 cheaper than Hot Star and Honey Bear is the clear winner if these two were to have a showdown. 4 stars.

Lots of options from Taiwanese bentos, snacks, drinks. The bentos are proportionate. Some of the snacks that are my go to is the booming squid, popcorn chicken, and condensed milk toast. Honey Bear is very generous with their portions and ingredients are always fresh. Drinks are mediocre. Prices are fair as well. read more

This location is inside pmall. They are also on ubereats. I order through ubereats. So ubereats price. They have special price (half off) on the minced pork rice ($5 from $10), minced park noodles ($5 from $10), the chicken skewer ($2.5 from $5), and a drink which I didn't order. I also ordered the cheese pork chop $10 (2 pcs) and popcorn chicken ($9). Basically the three stars are all for the cheese pork chop and maybe a bit for the minced pork rice. 1) minced pork rice. It's average. Nothing special, comes with a whole egg and some pickled cucumber and turnip. For $10 regular price, I guess it's ok but for $5 it's very fair and reasonable. 2) minced pork noodles. I choose ramen over rice noodles. It's actually a noodle soup. The packaging separate the ramen and the noodles. But the noodles is still too soft and mushy. And even after stirring in the soup, it still clumps together. Kinda gross. The soup is very flavorful though, like the raised beef noodles that kinda of soup. One thing however is there's quite a bit of whole pepper corn which isn't pleasant when bit into it. 3) popcorn chicken. I don't think they even reheat or refry it. It's dry and hard. Fail. The other food was fairly warm so I don't believe it's the time. The seasoning was ok though. 4) chicken skewer. They gave us an extra one(?) but it's also dry... and seasoning was alright, a bit of cumin. 5) cheese pork chop! $10 2 pieces. Mine was thick but it isn't dry at all! It's warm and the cheese (slice cheese) kept oozing out. The pork is also well seasoned and flavorful. The crust is also very crunchy. Really can't find anything bad about it. Must order. read more

Located right inside the 2nd floor of Pacific Mall, this is one of the many food stalls. Honey Bear serves a variety of snacks including some of my favourites which I tried out. We ordered the Taiwan style stinky tofu, takoyaki / octopus balls, and also the Taiwan style popcorn chicken. They have their own small seating area at the back if you'd like, as opposed to some other food stalls. The stinky tofu was fried quite nicely and each piece was actually more thinly cut than usual. It wasn't stinky and did not have that legit stinky tofu taste, but the sauce was still good and spicy side. As for the octopus balls, those were good but not great. It was stuffed with few octopus bits and outer texture was crunchy. Same with the popcorn chicken, the spices fit a Taiwanese style, but the overall flavour was average. read more

I kind of feeling sorry for Honey Bear. Maintaining a Taiwanese BBT and food drinks inside Pacific Mall is never easy with all these competition is not easy. And Honey Bear is at a serious disadvantage with its location inside P Mall. Located in the far end inside the "Heritage" area of P Mall. It is not the most convenient location for people just to get a bubble tea. And before getting there, you might have walked passed over 10+ other bbt places. There are quite a good selections of drink and even snacks. $5 tax in for both of our drinks which is on special. I did enjoy my Kiwi Slush and my friend's Honey Aloe was decent too. And they even have Durian milkshakes and ice. It is definitely nice to have a separate seating area from the main area but the place was just filthy! The floor was so sticky and tables so dirty when it was not even busy?! Maybe a bear with its jar of honey just came for some BBT? read more

Ordered takeout from here through an external ordering app (FOOD ON DELIVERY (F.O.D.)) and my order was prepared quite quickly. I ordered two things the Taiwan style beef ramen and the Taiwan style mince pork on rice. I really liked how the Taiwan style mince pork came with two spring rolls which were pretty good. The mince pork was surprisingly sweet which was a little too sweet on my end but it was still enjoyable. What I was amazed about was the set up of the Taiwan style beef ramen where the bottom of the take out container held the soup while the top had a separated container to have the noodles and beef. This made it so I could dump the noodles when it arrived into the soup without it staying in the broth for too long. I did however wish there was more beef with the beef ramen as I found it lacking a bit in the ratio in the end. The soup broth also had a bit of a mala taste to it which was interesting. Overall I did enjoy the food and I think I will order again as the these two dishes were enough to portion for three people for a quick lunch. read more

Honey Bear is a great alternative to Taste of Asia, especially when you're craving these snacks at a time when the night market isn't running. I've tried their tornado potatoes before and they were good, and today I ordered their sweet potato fries ($3.00 before tax). I can't complain too much about the portion size (a big handful), but I was hoping for a better bang for my buck. I guess not. Their fries are good, though, and should satisfy your craving well enough. Staff are nice, but keep in mind that they may not speak English. read more

I have been meaning to try this place for a while, and I finally did today. I was only able to get one item though but I will be coming back for more next time. I ordered their Taiwanese sausages for $4.50. I found them surprisingly sweet and tasty. Wait time for food was a bit on the long side, but I guess it was worth it. Would come back to try other items. They have quite a large selection of snacks and drinks. Review 54 of 100 read more

Excellent place and a hidden gem in the food court of the Pacific Mall. It is a good choice for light Taiwanese snacks. They have lots of goodies that you would want to eat. Can be hard to find seating at times. But be patient and you should find seats opening up. I saw other people eating food from this stall and it caught my attention. Food is excellent. You will enjoy it. read more

Guess who's back, Back again I am back! With a friend (ok..well boyfriend). This has become our favourite munchie spot whenever we feel too poor and lazy to go all the way to Guu. They have tons of delicious snacks ranging from $2-$7? How amazing is that?! I highly recommend: - Popcorn Chicken (so soft and juicy) - BBQ Tornado potato (hit or miss. Sometimes they make it really good with a lot of seasoning, but sometimes it's undercooked and comes with barely any seasoning) - Takoyaki (decent) - Watermelon juice (always fresh and sweet) So this weekend they added a new addition to their menu! Finally! Fried squid!! Oh boy oh boy! It's hugeee. Reminds me of the one at CNE and I remember it was reeeeeally good. Unfortunately, Honey Bear's did not even come close to the one at CNE. I was so sad! You can see the oil dripping right out onto the plate, the batter was not crisp enough nor did it stick to the squid. It fell right off after the first bite. On top of that, there was some weird spice in the squid. I didn't like it too much. But you know what? I'll still order this the next time I'm craving for some fried squid. Because where else am I going to find this around here?! Please please please start making blooming onions too! read more

I was craving some good fresh real fruit mango bubble tea. Good deals on the mango slush! It's 2 for $6.50 and $0.50 for tapioca. I ordered these in less sweet and discovered it was still very sweet and the tapioca seemed to have sugar in it too! It also tasted like there may have been other flavouring, not just real frozen fruit...everything else smelled fried. read more

Really small taiwanese food and drink stall. Have been here twice. The fried twist potato stick is really good. I've tried original, bbq and spicy, they're all good and are now only $2 each. Original price was $3.50 but i don't think they are worth that price. The drinks are ok, they are only $2 for small, $3 for med and $4 for large. Tapioca and jelly are an extra 50c. The staff are pleasant and friendly. Not tried the rice bowls because we have always eaten before we come here. And seating is really limited too. Better to grab something and walk around. read more

I love their BBQ Squid, you can get 3 kabobs for $6, and the taste is great! You don't need to wait for a really long time so that's a plus, and they give you a number so you can walk around while you wait for your food. read more

Huge size. Typical bbt joint. But bubble tea is super sweet even I tell them I want minimal syrup.... I can't taste the tea feeling yet I taste pure sugar in my mouth. Flop. 2 star for service read more

Honey Bear - Inside Honey Bear - Tea Rooms Near Me - Markham, Ontario

Hit and miss here. Ordered three things to go last night. Got the pork chop stuffed with cheese ($4), the Taiwanese stinky tofu ($4 - size large), and the salt and pepper deep fried tofu ($2.50). The meh: The pork chop was small for $4, and most of the cheese had come out of the pork chop. What remained made for a salty pork chop. Wouldn't order this one again. The stinky tofu was not stinky. It was more like deep fried tofu drowned in sweet chili Thai sauce with a smattering of cabbage. Portion was fair for $4, and it was okay tasting, but it was not what I was expecting when I ordered. The great: Love the salt and pepper deep fried tofu. It's tiny cubes of tofu deep fried until super crispy, tossed in a good amount of salt and pepper, and served in a paper bag with skewers for you to grab tofu with. I think the method of serving this is cute. The portion was not bad for $2.50. I would definitely order this again. This might just become my go-to snack option at Pacific Mall. I'd call this a cheap and delightful snack. read more

The prices here are really good. There is a small sitting area on the inside of this "store" (it's more like a counter and some chairs/tables), but it's situated at the back of a food court, so you have your pick of seats. I think that compared to bigger name bbt places (ex: Chatime), their drinks aren't as good but you are paying like half the price and their menu is pretty extensive (also includes actual food). The popcorn chicken is pretty good from what I remember and is decently priced. I mostly speak English, so there is minimal communication with the employees, but they have never been rude or demeaning to me. They do their jobs quickly and that's all I can really ask for. Honey Bear isn't the best place to eat or have drinks, but they are well priced for what they are and could be faring a lot better if not for their location. read more

This very, tiny stall at pmall has a lot to offer! They offer takoyaki, brick toast, bubble tea and a whole variety of other Taiwanese snacks. Upon ordering, I got my food super quick too. Everything was delicious, I couldn't be happier. The takoyaki was great (could have used larger octopus pieces but I find most places in Toronto skimp out on the octopus), the bricktoast was fantastic and the bubble tea was alright but if you were really picky about bubbletea, there are tons of alternatives in and around the mall. I'm only disappointed I walked past this place so many times without giving it a chance. Will definitely head back! read more

I go all the time, their very nice and always welcoming. The food is delicious! Definitely try the potato twist and the sweet potato.

Went to this place today with a friend and my friend recommended the tornado potatoe. As much as I love these, I had to give it a try. There are many flavours you can chose from including regular, spicy, bbq and they also have cheese however it's not on the menu. We had the cheese and spicy one. The price is alrite too compared to if you buy from vaughan mills or CNE. It was 2 for 5.50 plux tax came up to be $6. One bite into the cheese one, it was so yummy! I would definately go back here again. There is also seating here however it's not the most nice scenic place to eat in. read more

The receptionist is way toooooo cute. I love that place.

Ordered 2 rice entrees, stinky tofu, bbq squid skewers and 2 teas today. rice entrees were good but we like Papa Chang express better. Squid skewers tasted good. Teas were nice. Tapioca just the right chewiness. Good price for stinky tofu. We ordered 6 pieces to try but we knew it would not be stinky enough since you can't smell it like if you went to wei's or mei nung. But still nice to have the option at P-mall. Service was good and efficient. Saw others ordering tornado potatoe. Looks good. Will try again. Nice that they have their own seating area apart from the crowded food court area. read more

Great little spot for Taiwanese appetizers and dishes. The couple that works in the front are both so sweet and food does not take long. Great prices are everything! Little snacks are all $2, all drinks are $2-4, and everything is really delicious. My favourites are the watermelon juice, kiwi slush, stinky tofu, deep fried cheesy pork chop and the cheese tornado fries. Recommend!! read more

This place sucks...completely ignored to serve a pregnant lady today and when straight to serving a male customer. Service is rude and disgusting. Stay far away from this place. Food and bubble tea looked fake anyway. read more

This rating is strictly for their popcorn chicken (juicy, tender, and tasty) and honey milk green tea. The popcorn chicken was excellent and very reasonably priced at $4.99. The honey milk green tea was a little watered down and the tapioca balls were a little over cooked but for $2.99 for a small who can complain?! Other than these minor things, I would've given this place 5*. read more
