    classic roti bun
    Somya L.

    I am a huge fan of roti buns and have very limited options of them in SF, California. So when I saw this place around the corner by my lunch place, I had to check them out and they did not disappoint! One of the best roti buns I have ever had, I got the classic and it was the perfect balance of savory & sweet. You can pick toppings, flavors, etc but I wanted it plain. Fantastic service, the place was packed, and a cozy place! Must visit if you are in Vancouver.

    We hadn't been to Papparoti in ages but we very much enjoyed it the few times that we did go, so when I saw a $6.99 Too Good to Go bag at Papparoti, I couldn't pass it up! For $6.99 we got a croissant sandwich, a pain au chocolat pastry, an apple strudel, and one of their famous coffee buns. I have to admit, we weren't too impressed when we first saw the bag. It looked quite small to us. However, after emptying the contents and surveying each item...we were quite happy with what we got! The croissant sandwich was well received by my daughter and husband. I toasted it up in the toaster oven for them and it got nice & crispy. We all enjoyed the sweets...especially the coffee bun. When I warmed up the coffee bun in our toaster oven we could smell the wonderful aroma of the coffee bun wafting through the air. It got slightly burnt on the top as I accidentally left it in the toaster oven a bit longer than I should have but it was still delicious. I think I now have a renewed interest in coffee buns!

    Hubs wanted to stop here as he needed a pick me up. We arrived about 15 minutes before closing time. Hubs wanted to try their Karak milk tea but was told they sold out (well, they were about to close), so he went with the mocha instead. He also wanted to try one of the buns and went with the Nutella and Hazelnut one. I was too full to eat, but tried the mocha, which was creamy. Hubs said it was the perfect pairing with the bun. The bun was warm, and hubs said it wasn't overly sweet. I might have to return as they have a kaya one I'd like to try.

    I visited this cute little shop at about 6:30pm on a Thursday. The shop was empty aside from one group picking up a to-go order. I decided to order their "monthly special stuffed bun" which I don't 100% remember what it was called but it has sesame and cream, and it was awesome. Edit: it was called "Black Sesame Cream" The bun is so good it's like a mix between a regular savory bun with a sweeter exterior. I don't know what it was but it was super good. There was only one woman working the counter but she brought me my food and cleaned up my tray when I was done. The shop is super clean and they have a lot of yummy bun options.

    We had an air Bnb close to this place and stopped here a couple mornings in a row. The prices are very fair and the quality is amazing. Staff is incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. The deadly duo sandwich was a family favorite. Smoked turkey bagel was also great. I highly recommend the Spanish latte. Bold but smooth flavor. The salmon bagel did not have very much salmon and was not a favorite. Carrot cake was great. I really like the vibe of this place. It's small but decorated nicely. I'm glad we found this place and we would return again.

    @papparoticanada ft nutty bun (hazelnut & Nutella) Went with the safer option of hazelnut and Nutella vs other flavours, as it was our first time trying their bun. Appreciated the layers of texture and the presentation. Wish there was a little more in the bun itself. Heard their ice cream sandwich is pretty good so will have to try that next time!

    It was around 6pm and we wanted to head to a cafe. Pappparoti was open till 7pm and had read rave reviews on their coffee bun and hence headed here. There weren't any customers and just one staff. She was busy cleaning up and took our order for an original bun, Tea Flower Bloom, and karak. The glass for tea was dirty (had tea remains at the bottom). She provided another one which wasn't much of an improvement over the previous one. This was the first time I had this tea and it was nice watching the flower open up in the pot. The flavor was subtle yet nice. The karak wasn't what my husband was expecting, it was more watery in texture and taste, so he ordered a latte. The highlight was definitely the coffee bun. Crispy on the outside and a really nice flavor. Not overly sweet. The staff just seemed to be in a hurry to close up (even though there was an hour left for close) and we ended up feeling unwelcome so left as soon as we were done. Knocking off 2 stars because despite the good food, the service is what left the lasting impression.

    Pappa  Roti has delicious Buns great tasting coffee, the lattes are good. The staff is very nice, the place is very clean.

    I tried Pappa Roti Cafe & Bakery located next to our Airbnb. I was drawn to this cute little coffee house by the ambiance and cleanliness. I ordered a large cappuccino from the friendly staff. The drink did not disappoint. Although I did not order food, Pappa Roti has a nice selection of pastries and savory choices. Overall, a very nice place.

    I haven't been to this location for a whole now if not for covid and since I no longer work in the downtown area. I surely do miss the uniqueness of the Chinatown core. Their coffee bun is by far has always been one of my staple treat and cannot go wrong with it. First bite is a crusty yummiest which follows a soft bread inside. If you decide to add a little extra like Nutella or kaya, that's a bonus. Top it off with a cappuccino or a cortado. You got a winner!

    This is going to become one of my regular haunts: amazing coffee, delicious buns, and great service - what else do you need?! I'm really obsessed with their coffees here. Well made and without attitude! Unlike some other cafés around here lol. The staff are really pleasant and helpful. They have some good deals in the morning and late afternoon so check those out. Fyi they offer options for those gluten-free, and dairy-free (almond/oat), although I wish there were more! Already looking forward to my next visit!

    Best croissants in BC!!! Hot and fresh and super flaky!!! Customer service is also amazing and food can't be beat.

    I was here last Wednesday (June6th) for a drink fix, and went here for the first time. I was planning to go to T&T, however happy hour specials grabbed my attention that day. I've never tried Teh Tarik(Karak Tea is $3 during HH) ever. Staff explained that it's like Chai Tea that came in hot and cold. It came out fast, but tasted okay. Not exactly same as Chai Tea impo, but I tasted milk tea and ginger separately. Nothing too memorable about Karak Tea, maybe the ingredients weren't mixed too well? Tasted two different favours separately instead of one. I really liked sampling coffee buns from my visit, it was fresh, soft and tasty. Their stuff is expensive in my opinion. I'd love to go back for buns during hh because of my carb weakness. Fast service and clean washroom.

    Delicious sandwich of generous portion! I ordered the…read moreItaliana which comes with prosciutto crudo, prosciutto cotto, stracciatella cheese, truffle spread and arugula. The taste of the fillings was very well balanced with nothing being overpowering. I could taste every single ingredient yet they went together very well! I particularly liked the stracciatella cheese. It added a fluffy and soft texture to the sandwich. The shop was small, cozy and well decorated. There were some available seats when I was there at around 1:30pm. There was no line as the peak lunch hour had passed. They made my sandwich immediately so I didn't have to wait at all.

    First time I tried Dante's sandwich. Finally I had a chance to visit here…read more What we had: italiana - prosciutto crudo, prosciutto cotto, stracciatella cheese, truffle spread, arugula Monte cristo - prosciutto cotto, provolone, sundried tomato spread. Italiana was so good. Double Prosciutto!! Truffle flavor was strong and paired with stracciatella cheese. What a great combination! And Arugula was very fresh. Foccacia was very crispy outside and soft inside. One of the best sandwich. I will order again. Monte cristo was also good. Grilled bread was very crispy and nicely pressed. Provolone and prosciutto cotto combination was great, too. Sundried totamto provided great accent. I will order this one again, too. Overall, it was a great sandwich shop. Highly recommend.

    I've passed Tokyo Katsu-Sand so many times when I'm on the Granville Mall downtown…read more Never really gave it any attention until I saw an IG post from an influencer who was visiting Vancouver from out of town. https://youtu.be/GDP_uBsvH6g She highly recommended the fish sandwich or Fish-Katsu. Gosh it absolutely did not disappoint & I should have ordered another one! The taste of this sandwich was so delicious, I couldn't chew it fast enough. The cabbage, tartar sauce & fish-katsu sauce are delightful together. This food truck is located right at Canada Line subway station - Vancouver Centre Station - main entrance on Georgia at Granville. You'll notice it when you come up the escalator & turn right onto the Granville Mall. Basically it's right near Nordstrom. I don't know if I'll bother with the other sandwich options cause I just love the Fish-Katsu that much. It's a very small simple sandwich. Nothing really fancy to it at all, but the taste utterly rocks. So glad I tried it & I can't wait to go back!

    I always wanted to try Tokyo Katsu-Sand. They showed up at the BCIT Food Truck Festival. The first…read moretime I saw them around was at the Taiwanese Bubble Tea festival. I got the gyu-katsu sandwich. I found the sandwich a bit small and for the price, it was pretty expensive. $16 after tax. Don't get me wrong. It was tasty. I found it nothing wow. The beef was cut in a certain way that it remained as one piece to make it easier to season. The gyu katsu is their more popular sandwich. However, it doesn't come with any lettuce or anything other than the beef and sauce. The bread was nothing special. It was basically thin regular bread. It does take them about 10 mins to make the sandwich. In terms of the way they serve it, it was presented to me nicely and the box was made to perfectly fit the sando inside. Not a bad sandwich but it was just pretty pricy.
