    Cereal Milk Donut Nutella Brioche Vanilla Donut
    Thidah U.

    Wow! So good we came back twice! If you want a palette cleanser or you have a sweet tooth. Highly recommend this place. It's such a cute shop and they make everything in house. Tried a few different ones but my all time favorite was the milk and cereal. That was by far my favorite and mind you I went back twice haha Great customer service and they box them up so nicely. It's in Chinatown area, but the greatest part, but everyone minds their business. When I go back to Vancouver- I'll definitely come back here again! Maybe I'll try something different.

    Mello is my favorite donut shop for brioche donuts. I love their Asian inspired flavors. I got the matcha filled donut. It was good and had a strong matcha flavor, but it seemed slightly different than the last time I had it. The donut was relatively light and didn't feel too heavy.

    One of my fav donut spots in town! Love the new seasonal mango mochi donut with real pieces of mochi inside!!

    If you ever find yourself wandering through Chinatown in Vancouver and craving something sweet, Mello is absolutely worth the stop. The popular shop is simple, clean, and welcoming--a bright space that lets the donuts be the star. They also offer coffee, tea, and a selection of other drinks, which makes it an easy place to pause and treat yourself. What really stood out was their lineup of fresh, handcrafted Korean brioche donuts. The flavors are fun and creative--think mango mochi donut and peanut butter and jelly--and they rotate regularly, so there's always something new to try. Every donut was beautifully put together and it seriously took me a while to decide because they all looked so good. I ended up going with the strawberries and cream and the cereal milk donut. Their texture and sugar-coated exterior actually reminded me of malasadas, which I loved. Even though I didn't get around to eating them until the next day, they were still soft and delicious. The strawberries and cream was my favorite--light, flavorful, and I can only imagine how incredible it would've been fresh. If you're a dessert lover like me, this spot is an easy recommendation. I'd happily go back to try whatever new flavors they come up with next.

    I finally got around to trying Mello during my most recent trip to Vancouver after having it on my list for so many years. It's right in the heart of Chinatown, so options for parking are mainly street parking but turnaround is quick so not much time is really needed. Storefront is nice and cozy, with a few spots by the window to enjoy your donuts. They have a wide selection of flavours to choose from between both savoury and sweet. I opted to try the matcha, PB&J, and the everything bagel. The donuts themselves were nice and fluffy, holding in the cream very well without compromising structure. The matcha and the pb&j were about what you'd expect, good donuts with good fillings. The everything bagel really surprised me, it actually worked super well with the cream cheese filling and the everything bagel seasoning in a donut form. Definitely a must-try donut spot in Vancouver!

    OMG!!! These Donuts I didn't know what to expect but... Holy Cow these donuts are AMAZING! A must have if you are in the area. I got the everything, and a variety of others... SO GOOD Staff was So kind and very welcoming

    We ordered Mello Donuts on Uber and had the pleasure of tasting their beautifully presented donuts right out of the box. There was also a great variety of flavours my husband chose, including Strawberry Cream, Tiramisu, Chocolate Pudding, and more. Each donut was topped with a special decorative touch, which made them look elegant and award-worthy. I first tried the Salted Caramel donut and absolutely loved it. The sugar topping was sweet and delightful, the dough was soft just the way I like it, and the caramel filling was generously oozing out -- so good! Next was the Lemon Curd. It had the same soft, fresh dough and generous filling, but the lemon curd had a slight aftertaste that wasn't my personal favorite. Still, it was clearly fresh and well made. But what I loved most was the Nutella Mello Donut -- OMG, I was in heaven! The Nutella was rich, smooth, and overflowing with bliss. I finished it in one minute! I would definitely recommend Mello Donuts to all my friends and family!

    Salted Caramel and Madagascar Vanilla brioche donuts ...
    Zita C.

    I am always on the hunt for a good donut -- like a quality, tasty, "I'll be thinking about this later" kind of donut . I found Mello Donuts on DoorDash while overnighting in Vancouver, and listen... I am in love. Their website says "brioche donuts -- made fresh from scratch daily" and when I tell you, that first bite made me a believer! Your teeth just sink right into this soft, fluffy, cloud-like goodness -- it's giving pillow of happiness, truly These aren't your regular donuts either -- they're brioche donuts with a little hole on top where they pipe in the creamy filling. And the flavors? Unreal. Tiramisu, Nutella, Strawberries & Cream, Lemon Curd, Chocolate pudding, Peanut Butter & Jelly plus more; and some savory Matcha, and Everything Bagel donut -- how do you even pick one?! I ended up going with the Vanilla, which has a Madagascar vanilla bean custard filling -- light, creamy, not too sweet, just perfect. And the Salted Caramel? Omg. Filled with silky salted caramel that hits just right. Yummy yummy yummy. And if you feel like moderating your intake (or pretending to ), they also serve them in the minis -- little bite-sized puffs of joy that will probably disappear faster than your self-control Oh, and the cute little present box my two donuts were packaged in? Just icing on the cake-- I mean, donut Loved the whole presentation. It's actually wild that I'm contemplating another Vancouver layover just to get these donuts okay maybe not doing the layover for the donuts... but definitely doing the donuts on my next layover!

    Let me start off by sharing the incredibly controversial fact that I don't like doughnuts. Shocking, I know, but the tooth-achingly sweet, yeasty, dense flavour has never been for me. So I'm sure you'll understand my skepticism when my friend claimed that this spot had "pick me" doughnuts, meaning, doughnuts that are "not like other doughnuts". Begrudgingly, I accepted coming, and tried the tiramisu flavour. Now perhaps I'm biased because I do love tiramisu, but I was incredibly pleasantly surprised. So much so that I went back next week and got a box of them to bring home. Not overtly sweet, incredibly light and fluffy (they are brioche doughnuts after-all), filled with yummy cream (which might be the best part imo). I must warn you that the filling gives authentic tiramisu, meaning that (and I may be wrong) but I have a slight suspicion it may contain the slightest bit of liqueur, which may not be for everyone, so just being mindful of that. Additionally, at 5.75$ per doughnut excluding tax+tip, it is a bit on the pricier side, but I suspect that is due to quality of ingredients. Overall, quite impressed. Not much seating on the inside, so it doesn't quite give the "come here to study" vibe, but the staff were quite nice and friendly. Would recommend, particularly to high-quality doughnut lovers.

    Absolutely, positively, divine puffy donuts that are filled to perfection. The taro one was truly exquisite! Not too sweet and filled fully which made it perfect, one is enough but why stop there? I wish I tried at least 3 but didn't have the belly room.

    Quaint Korean run coffee shop in Chinatown. Parking is available on the street, but watch out for the junkies on the sidewalk. The place is modern but plain. Strangely enough, there are no seats. Just standing room. Knock 1 star off. Staff are friendly. No complaints. The tiramisu doughnut I had was pretty good. Not too sweet, and generous amount of filling. The coffee was decent but nothing special. Worth checking out if one is in the area, but there are also several other coffee shops in the vicinity.

    Nutella, tiramisu, and lemon curd brioche donuts
    Tiffany Y.

    Was really excited to try this donut shop after seeing good reviews from social media, but it sadly didn't meet my expectations. The shop itself is cute, and the service was quick. We ordered 3 brioche donuts: lemon curd, Nutella, and tiramisu. My favorite was the Nutella, but I quickly realized it's because Nutella is just so good on its own and the donut had so much Nutella filling. The lemon curd was initially tasty, but the taste and aftertaste lingering from each bite was not pleasant. It reminded me of lard or grease? The tiramisu was decent though. The dough in these donuts was pretty good and fluffy, but nothing special about them. My friend and I were both not impressed with this donut shop - we both thought the donuts were just OK and not worth coming back for, but I'm glad I got to try them!

    Natasha P.

    Mello Donuts in Chinatown definitely lives up to the hype. I opted for the Nutella donut and it was absolutely packed with Nutella, but what really stood out was how light and airy the donut itself was. The texture was soft and fluffy, and the rich Nutella filling paired perfectly with it. Excellent flavour all around.

Smooth, balanced, and exactly what you want on a crisp morning adventure. Goldie's felt like one of those special finds you don't plan for but remember long after. If you're anywhere nearby, it's a must-stop.
