Super quick service and the donuts were yummy. There was plenty of filling in the strawberries and cream, vanilla and tiramisu. The Nutella had less but maybe because it was super rich. I also had the chocolate dipped donut and cookies and cream. I wanted to try the non filled ones but next time I will only go with the stuffed ones. Had a black sesame milk but i wish it had a bit more sesame. read more

If you want to try some specialty filled donuts, you need to try this donut shop located in Chinatown. They have a special flavor of the day. My favorites so far are green tea and chocolate. read more

Mello - Tiramisu, dark chocolate and green tea filled donuts - Donuts Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

I'm obsessed with these donuts, they are so fluffy and have just the right amount of filling inside without being too sweet. I've tried all the flavours and my top are matcha, vanilla, lotus (cookie butter), salted caramel and Nutella. The filling in the tiramisu is too bitter and the strawberry is just plain whipped cream. The peanut butter they use in pb&jam tasted off, I prefer lucky's. I've gone there 3 times within the last month and I haven't had a problem with them running out of flavours, but I go during a weekday. If you buy half a dozen you save $.25 per donut plus taxes. read more

Best donuts ever!! It's super delicious!! If you haven't tried Melli, you are missing out!! Runnn!! Unlike other traditional donuts, Mello donut is chewy and not overly sweet. The bread is fluffy, and bouncy when you take a bite. Fillings are creamy and dense! I love all the flavours. Small shop friendly staff!! If I could give it more stars I would read more

All hype for this place. The tiramisu was okay but not the greatest (keeping in mind you don't really find that flavour often), my daughter loves caramel and the caramel didn't have much of a caramel flavour at all and it was more on the bitter side. The lemon is what caught us by surprise because it had a fishy taste and we ended up just throwing it away because it wasn't anywhere close to tasting like a lemon. 7 donuts for over $30.... Not worth it at all. Lee's donuts isn't too far from this place so as a personal preference I would rather spend my money at Lee's just because your donuts will taste like the flavour you paid and asked for. read more

Mello - Donuts Near Me - Vancouver, British Columbia

Just a heads up: this is a cashless cafe and they don't accept AMEX. Decor is very sparse and highly minimalistic, but I really enjoyed their beige tones and round theme. However, I think they could've used up their wall space better because it feels quite plain. I got their mocha and mini Nutella donut for about $7 CAD. The drink wasn't super sweet but I could taste the caffeine and felt it paired nicely with the donut. The donut itself was a little too over filled with Nutella and, as a result, I felt the ratio of donut to chocolate was too skewed to the chocolate. I ended up not finishing it because the Nutella overpowered the actual sugar donut, despite the "mini" size. Overall, the pricing is much cheaper than I had anticipated for my visit but I believe that they could adjust their fill percentage of their donuts better. A nice little cafe to stop by for something sweet or do a little bit of work. read more

Good donut. Horrible part of town and no where to sit in the restaurant. They have seats stacked, but apparently no one is able to use them...still a Covid thing? It's not the restaurants fault that it's surrounded in this bad neighborhood, but we wouldn't go back, unless we had a car to get out of that part of town..in a hurry. read more

Since the pandemic I think I gained my weight from eating these donuts. It's a cake type donut filled with delicious lemon curd, matcha cream, tiramisu, chocolate, vanilla whipped cream, etc. They have occasional limited feature flavours so keep an eye on their social media site. The filling is not too sweet and very fresh with real dairy and not the packaged powdered stuff you get at the chain bakeries. Their cheesecake is also so delicious and I'm not a cheesecake person. It was light, creamy, not too sweet and rich. They have soft serve ice cream with rotating flavors like matcha, Hojicha, etc. I'm quite sure this is the same soft serve ice cream that use to be near Gastown that I loved! They usually sell out but they try to refill their display as fast as possible. You can reorder online. I go during off peak time, around 2pm, and they seem to have all the flavours available. Look for the powder yellow painted exterior to find this place. read more

Solid 4.5! I am usually not a donut person. My other half is so he dragged me along to Mello. Let's just say I was in line again before finishing the ones we sampled. Yum brioche donuts! Light, fluffy and the filling was just right. Not too sweet and very creamy. The vanilla and the old fashioned were our favorites. Definite must stop if in the Chinatown area. Skip the dim sum places close by and hop on over to Mello instead. read more

Well let's start with the donuts. They are some of the best donuts I've ever had. They are so soft and the different flavors are so unique...my favourite was raspberry cream. It was so fluffy and rhe filling was so light and sweet. They are steep in price...approx $4 per donut. I ended up spending $48! I am definitely going back to try lemon (someone else ate that flavor lol) and something new! I definitely say check it out. Everyone is talking about these donuts. The service is great. There's no where to sit so expect to buy and take them somewhere else. read more

Highly recommend. Good variety, very efficient service (don't let the line up scare you). I have a very low tolerance for sweets and do not like chocolate caramel type things, but found myself to really enjoy the coffee donut. Also enjoyed lemon, matcha, cornflake, strawberry. Nice and light, perfect texture for those who aren't crazy about typical cakey sweet donuts. They did get my order wrong though, and I went back a few minutes later to ask if I could get the two I actually asked for. Unfortunately the cornflakes were all sold out in a matter of minutes. read more

I love their brioche donut. I tried the tiramisu flavour and found that it had the perfect sweetness and goes well with the coffee I ordered. I came back the 2nd time to try their softserve and it was also pretty well done. It was milk flavoured and you can tell it was good quality softserve. It's becoming a pretty popular place for people to hang out and have a snack. Both times I was able to find a seat. read more

Great doughnuts. The tiramisu was the consensus favorite. Unlike most other places it's not too sweet but just sweet enough so you don't feel too guilty about ordering from here. read more

So happy for this place to open near work! They make fresh donut Every day at 9:00am and 3:00pm. Their donuts are soooo good fresh! Soft and chewy on the inside, slight crunch like deep fried on the outside. The fillings are not too sweet and tasty. I love the tiramisu one, my absolute favourite! Would love to try other things on the menu too. All the staff are very very friendly! P.S reminder, it is a cash-less store, so electronic/card payment only! For me, that's another bonus! read more

Really cute decor and nice atmosphere. Menu is simple and there is a selection of brioche donuts, old fashioned, some other pastries and a selection of drinks. Had the lemon curd donut ($3.75) which was quite lemony and was nice and tart. The donut itself was very pillowy and soft and the sugar on the outside was a nice touch to cut the tartness. They also had a vanilla, a chocolate pudding and a peanut butter and jelly donut which sounded interesting, would probably try it next time! Better than Cartem's in my opinion! read more

Around 9:30 am today Store empty Two staff I ordered 2 boxes 1 strawberry and lemon 1 strawberry and matcha I didn't get lemon - I got vanilla?? I didn't get what I ordered Also the strawberry shortcake had 3 small pieces on top And 4 small pieces - size of my pinky inside It was all cream It didn't meet my expectations since there was so little strawberries :( Note - I emailed the store before posting but didn't get reply. read more

Oh. My. God. These are hands down the BEST DOUGHNUTS in Vancouver! When you first see the sugary coating, you think they're going to be overly sweet! However, the doughnuts are fluffy, not too sweet and the fillings (especially the strawberry) is so creamy delicious! My next favourite is the lemon curd...sooooo yummy! They always seem to sell out of their best sellers, I wonder why they don't make more from the start. I guess the only reason why I didn't give them a 5-star rating is because of their location near Main and East Pender. I hope they open up a second location somewhere else. I've got so many of my friends addicted to these hella good doughnuts. read more

Yummy creative take on donuts! Nutella donut was all that I dreamed of. Cereal milk donut was a fun take too. Would def order here again!

WOW! These doughnuts are amazing! So, so fresh! I tried the chocolate and it had amazing flavour - the chocolate inside was perfect -not too sweet and a great texture. Pastry itself was incredibly fresh and had the right amount of sugary-coating. Blown away by this doughnut! Can't wait to come back and try more flavours. read more

These donuts are so delicious! They're light, airy and fluffy, and aren't overly sweet. We saw them on Instagram and wanted to check them out. We heard people recommending that we preorder and we're so glad we did. If you go there without preordering, there's a good chance everything will be sold out or that there will only be a slim selection of donuts. You just need to email them 24 hours in advance letting them know the donuts you want and they'll have them ready. They have great customer service as well and are really nice. We tried the vanilla, dark chocolate pudding, lemon curd ($3.75 each), strawberries and cream, and tiramisu donuts (the last two are specialty donuts and are $4.75). Yes, they are pricey, but for the quality and taste, they're totally worth it. My favorites were the strawberries and cream and lemon curd; however, they were all really good. I highly recommend checking them out! read more

A very disturbing thing happened today. I pre-order my donuts as I usually do. I went to pick up, 5 minutes later they called and said they gave me the wrong order. I pulled over and looked at the order. Please note I tested positive for Covid a few weeks prior. I went back with the order I picked up. I assumed they would just let me keep the wrong order and add the 2 donuts that were missing. I mentioned this to the lady at the front desk. Instead she took the box with the wrong order and gave me my correct order. I pray for your customers you did not re-sell those donuts that I opened and breath on. We all know the correct thing to do in this situation and the person at the front desk should be fired, for lack of common sense. Extremely disappointing and I'm thinking about calling health services. read more

Run here for the donuts!! They are some of the best I've ever had. We even came back here twice on our trip because after the first visit we realized we needed to try another flavor but were too full. We tried the strawberry and cereal. Strawberry was definitely the favorite! read more

Finally made it to this lil coffee/ doughnut joint. Beautiful presentation of the food. Took my lil guy here to enjoy some baked goods as he was still hungry after his lunch. Cute lil place, didn't have a chance to try the coffee but tried three of their doughnuts. Tiramisu, Strawberry with mascarpone whip, and vanilla bean. My partner loved the doughnuts as she mentioned it was very fluffy for her. It's a good doughnut but for myself I like the full grease kind of doughnuts with that crunch. These donuts reminded me of as if you were eating a Chinese bun, coated in sugar and crossed with donut filling. Just remember though when coming here to bring your cards vs paying by cash. read more

Mello is sill as amazing as ever ! Their old fashioned donut is one of my all time favourite donuts of all time, and their brioche donuts definitely improved and were fluffier than last time, perhaps because they just came out fresh. The tiramisu flavour was light and not too overwhelming, just like last time. The staff are super friendly as well. Keep it up ! read more

Housemade doughnuts and Agro coffee make for my new favourite coffee shop in Chinatown. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, and the filling is not too sweet. They also have a Gorgonzola financier for those who don't feel like a cookie or doughnut, which has a savoury aroma that pats your nose sweetly. Their matcha latte is not overly sugary as well, though I had it with oat milk. I like the bright and simple interior, which makes for a great place to catch up with a friend, or work on something quietly on a laptop. Looking forward to try their ice cream. read more

Mello's most lovely storefront stopped me in my tracks and brought me in this morning. Wish I could have stayed longer to enjoy the aesthetics, but had to head back to the office after getting my coffee. Only had room for a cappuccino this morning, but will certainly be back to try their donuts and soft serve (Earl Grey flavour on the menu today!). Mina, the cashier and barista, was kind and friendly too. read more

We heard great things so quickly stopped by for a couple of donuts. Probably the best donuts we have had in the city, much better than some of the other gourmet donut shops.

Worst establishment ever. Discriminated against nursing moms and parents. Rude employees. Don't recommend coming if you have kids. Not worth it and their donuts are mediocre at best. read more

After seeing the Instagram photos from people who have tagged this place, we had to try it! I have to say the donut itself was really good -- pillowy soft and just the right amount of sweetness. If you've ever had malasadas from Hawaii, the texture reminds me of them. However, I think the fillings overpower the goodness of the donut itself. We tried these flavours: strawberries and cream, salted caramel, Nutella, and PB&J. All were good but again, the fillings take away from the donut. I wish they would make just the donut itself! Then I could give a 5-star rating for sure. read more

Chocolate chip cookies are the bomb here, super soft. Donuts were good, but some of the fillings were not evenly spread out, so before u get to taste the filling, u have to finish half of the donut (pure dough). They were fluffy tho, small ones were not as fluffy as the big ones. read more

Stopped by for a quick bite at around 6:45pm. They were mostly sold out as they had three flavours to choose from. I tried their mini brioche with chocolate. It was quite yummy. Not too dense. Reminded me of a chinese bun with sugar on top! Hopefully they will have more flavours next time to try! read more

New brioche donut joint in the Chinatown area. Korean owned Bakery cafe. Cute little cafe with lots of areas to study. They have many different flavours and types of donuts. My favourite was definitely the strawberries and cream brioche donut. It's very light and creamy with a good balance of sweet and tartness from the strawberries. The vanilla would be my second favourite as it was also very light and creamy. Those were not too sweet. If you prefer things to be on the sweeter side then perhaps the lemon curd and pb&j one would be for you read more
