Tucked away in the T&T plaza on the second floor is this adorable little snack shop. Owned by a lovely couple, Pop Up House is mostly known for their egg waffles, bubble tea, and AMAZING deals. They also offer various snacks like hot dogs, fish balls, fries, etc. For under $5, yes, you read that right, UNDER $5, you can get a full on combo. Now there isn't much with decor as unit sizes are quite limited on this floor. A lot of people order, pay, then wander elsewhere or sit outside the shop and wait. I'd say 15 min is a standard waiting time for them. Now, I wouldn't say their egg waffles are exquisite, but they do put their heart into their food and are always courteous to their customers, so definitely some bonus points there. This place is CASH ONLY (at the moment) so remember to get cash before you come here. Then again, you always have at least 15 min to get it after ordering anyway. It does take quite a bit of time for the food to get to your hands, since it's only run by 2 people and they do get a lot of orders. But, it will be worth your money, and you get what you pay for. If you're in a rush, or on your lunch break in the area, I wouldn't suggest dropping by as you might be late getting back to wherever you came from. All in all, it is a nice little shop to pick up some snacks/drink. Just remember to bring cash :) read more

Heard about this place and decided to give it try as me and my friend were in the mood for a bubble waffle ice cream dessert. This is probably the most random little store that sells a very large variety of things (stationary, food, baby clothing?) but we only tried the food. My friend ordered the original bubble waffle with matcha ice cream, while I myself ordered a original milk tea with coffee jelly and a original bubble waffle. Both were $3.40 ($3+tax), very reasonably priced. My only downside in this experience was that I wanted tapioca in my drink but the owner said they had ran out as they were very busy during the day, which was honestly very surprising considering how hidden this store is. Bubble waffle was crispy and warm, had a nice egg flavor. Matcha ice cream was pretty good, just wish they added a bit more of it. Milk tea was also interesting (not sure if it was the coffee jelly that was a weird combination) but I did like the bitterness of tea, and it actually not that sweet for half sugar. Bonus points for the decoration on the ice cream. Pleasant surprise and super cute, made me enjoy the experience even more. Also funny to think that a middle aged man put two little pretzels and frootloops to make a face on the ice cream. TLDR: For the price, I'd definitely say this place is worth it. Comparable in taste to other bubble waffle ice cream places like Golden Bubbles, and way cheaper. In all honesty, you get what you pay for. I wasn't expecting a 10/10 but it was better than expected. Good service and cheap food, definitely would come back to try other things. read more

Pop Up House - Original bubble waffle with matcha ice cream ($3.40) - Desserts Near Me - Markham, Ontario

I love coming here! For the price of ~$3.50 for a bubble tea and an egg waffle, I'd still be happy if it was kind of crappy, but I love that it isn't!. The bubble teas they serve there are about first markham place quality, but honestly if you go in expecting $6 bubble tea quality (from a 3 DOLLAR PLACE), you're going to be disappointed. Nothing wrong with their bubble teas, but they're just not going for the fancy overpriced vibe. I did see a few reviews mentioning the 'powder flavour' of the teas - I think it's important for people to know that is likely the practice for most shops. Tea flavours are often made using powders and syrups (source: worked in a bbt shop in fmp). However, I was surprised that you could customize sugar levels, as that isn't customary for cheap bubble tea places. They have an unbelievably extensive selection of bubble tea and food, so you really never need to go anywhere else! I love coming here for the egg waffles because they're a bit sweeter, and you can even get an egg waffle with ice cream for $3. Unheard of! Having been used to the likes of Chatime, it's nice to have something cheaper and comforting to satisfy those bbt cravings. read more

Pop Up House - Jasmine milk green tea and egg waffle - Desserts Near Me - Markham, Ontario

Very cheap and pretty tasty! Went here yesterday after hearing about the cheap prices and I couldn't be more impressed! The food and drinks here are SUPER CHEAP. The egg waffles are only $1 with any drink purchase! They also have many combos all under $4! I tried the fresh mango drink with popping yogurt and it was delicious! The egg waffles were made fresh when ordered and were perfectly sweetened. When I went back to pick up my order, the owner introduced me to their combos and I just couldn't resist trying! I tried the chicken crepe with mayo, dried pork puff, and terriyaki sauce and it also came with a bubble tea. The combo was only $3 + tax!!!!! Only downside is that the service was a little slow. Waited around 20 mins for everything. Only the owner there making all the orders. read more

The cutest little shop in the plaza to get some super affordable snacks! Upon entering, my friend and I were greeted by a kind couple. Menu items are posted all on the wall inside with super great deals! I have tried the drinks and bubble teas before and they were average. You get to customize your drink with many flavor and topping choices. However, I tried their egg waffle for the first time and I couldn't believe how much it tasted like the ones from home! The waffle bursted with a strong aromatic egg flavor and was light and crispy on the outside. The were many other flavor options as well, but I decided to try the original. The owner asked if we preferred softer or crispier and he was very very friendly and made sure he made it to our liking. I really enjoyed the egg waffle, especially since it's only $2! If you purchase a drink with it, it's only $1! I repeat, only $1!! The taste of the waffle was very authentic and made with care. I will definitely come back to try their other flavors next time! I know there are so many new and different egg waffle shops popping up all over Markham and Toronto, but it's just something about this one that made me feel like a little kid again. I definitely recommend anyone who walks by this store next time to give it a try! (P.s. they only accept cash! read more

I like the 2-flavours cup for bubble tea. It is cute. And I tried the HK style eggo but it is not as good as the one at pacific mall/market village. The owner is friendly but service is EXTREMELY SLOW. I ordered a bubble tea, eggo and eggo with ice-cream and it took almost 30 mins. OMG. Price is good. Also, I am concern about the cleanliness of the place since it is so small and their 'kitchen' seems a little messy. read more

3.5 While location is a bit hidden and small, it is a great find with quite a large snack selection. Owner is super nice. Tried their bubble waffle + double cup bbt (taro milk tea, honey dew milk tea). I would say the bubble waffles is pretty good. Leans towards crunchy airy side rather than chewy. It is also not super sweet which is great! Drinks wise it is lacking. I think they do make it with powder rather than fruit syrup which does cause both flavour of milk tea to fall a bit short. Taro is still good but honey dew I may not get again as it tastes slightly metalicy for some reason. Will I go back? Definitely for a great deal of $3 double cup drink + $1 bubble waffle (after 7pm m-f, 8pm s-s). Also i would be interested in their other snack selections too! read more

Pop Up House - Original bubble waffle with mango ice cream - Desserts Near Me - Markham, Ontario

The place is awesome! It's like a hidden gem upstairs that not many will discover. They have a lot of different options for desserts or snacks or drinks. I went there for the bubble tea and got their cup that has two sides for two different flavours. They were good but not the best. However I got caught on the fact they had close to 20 different flavours of ice cream and it was all under $3! I decided to get their 3 scoops of ice cream (you can get all different flavours) for $2.30! The ice cream was awesome! I tried their taro, coconut, and pistachio. The taro is not your normal flavoured version, I suspect it's real ingredients (don't quote me on that, nevertheless it tastes really good), that you wouldn't kind of expect from such a small shop. The pistachio and coconut both had real pieces in it as well! It's a fun place to venture to and you have a mini pmall to walk around while you enjoy your food. read more

Ordered an avocado slush and an ice honey green tea yet they were the worst drinks I've ever had in my life! Not to mention the avocado slush didn't taste like avocado at all, the honey green tea had no taste of honey or tea but sugar water. I normally hate to waste food and drinks especially a good $6 but my husband and I couldn't stand it and had to throw the drinks away. Will never come back again read more

Small shop run by the owner, but I didn't find the wait to be long or annoying. It takes time to make food obviously. The eggettes were fresh. The milk tea was pretty good, not watered down the way some other stores make it, but personally I like the tea flavour to be extra strong. It was decent here. The mango slush was the best, very fresh. My bf loved it too. Owner was really nice. read more

It's a very small shop tucked away in Langham Square. It may be hard to find, but I would definitely go back. The prices are amazing, as though it were 20 years ago! With that said, even for the low prices he charges, the owner provided excellent customer service. He was low on grass jelly (which I had already ordered) so he offered to mix in another topping for me. He was incredibly apologetic. We ordered the original bubble tea and the Iron Goddess bubble tea with bubble waffles. Both teas were very good, as well as the waffles. I would definitely recommend this place! read more

I got their special set - egg waffle and one drink with free topping, for $3 only. I had original milk tea and I think it taste like Hong Kong style milk tea, which I love it. For the egg waffle, you can choose it's texture to be soft, normal, or crispy. I think the egg waffle is pretty good for its price. The size is not that big compare to other store's but it's good enough for a price of $1. The clerk is very nice and polite too. If you are looking for something cheap and good, you should try out this place! I will definitely come back here for an afternoon dessert or late night snack. read more

wow! I love going to this place. The prices are super cheap for what you get and its a great snack place. The owner always remembers me and is very kind. I know the service can be slow so this is not the place to go if you are in a hurry. However, please be understanding since the owner is just one person in the store. And I believe he makes everything fresh which is why it can take so long. read more

Random and lots of options and knick knacks overwhelm this store. The food is amazingly cheap but be warned that the portion is super tiny. Good idea for a snack but nothing to fill you up. For under $5 I was able to get an original milk tea with tapioca, some sweet potato fries, 2 pieces of takoyaki, and ~3 fish balls. Lol not bad! Taste was average and nothing stood out. Do note that they also have double cup bubble tea here which is a nice option but taste wise wouldn't be up to par of your Chatime and the likes. Overall if you're in the area and looking for a super small bite on budget then you might consider visiting here. read more

My boyfriend and I initially came to this mall for airsoft gear and we stumbled upon this cute little shop. We were amazed with how great the prices were and decided to give it a try. This was our first time here, so the gentleman (possibly the owner) showed us our food and drink options and answered any questions we had. He was extremely polite and patient, which we really appreciated. I ordered the Oreo ice cream with the waffle and my boyfriend got the honeydew green tea with lychee jelly and a bubble waffle as well. They had a promotion going on so we took full advantage of that. In total we spent $6, which I think is an amazing deal considering most bubble tea options at other stores are $6 just for the drink alone. Once we got our food and drinks, we were extremely happy with the overall taste of our food. We had such an amazing experience and if we are ever in the area again, we would definitely come back and try their other options. Highly recommend!! read more

I've been coming here practically everyday, all their stuff is so well priced and yummy! I've had basically their whole menu and nothing's too salty or sweet. For their bubble tea you can also adjust sugar levels and the employees are so nice there read more

See all

You can't get a better deal anywhere else! The food and drinks are fantastic and the service is very nice. Definitely will be back :)

Prices are amazing, but the taste is not the best. It also takes quite some time for the bubble tea to be made. I was told to come back 10 mins later, but I waited about 30 mins before I was able to receive my order, read more

I got the ice cream in a waffle. Waffle is waffle and ice cream is typical ice cream you find in grocery stores. Nothing special really. Sorry, I won't go back here. read more

This is a great place. A mom and pop shop that's pretty small but still good. Wait is very very very long but worth it when it's great food at a great cost. Many menu options, almost too much but the resin i got back is the prices. This place is way cheaper than any other i've been too. Even though the wait is extremely long and the food is pretty good it's still makes me come back again and again. read more

Pop Up House is great for inexpensive snacks. I had the fresh mango slush with tapioca and found that there was way too much ice in the drink and couldn't really taste the fresh mangoes. I also got the bubble waffle and enjoyed that much more. read more
