    Limited strawberry mochi flavour! This was from two months ago so this flavour is no longer available. I rlly wish I waited and tried the matcha strawberry mochi flavour but I'm still glad I tried this one. I enjoyed the mochi at the bottom and found the strawberry flavour really good. Overall I really like how they have rotational flavours every month and I think it's rlly fun. However, I think they are pretty pricey for soft serve.

    Tiramisu

    Green Forest was good--the matcha was strong and flavorful and paired well with the red beans. The tiramisu was delicious as well. The soft serve is creamy and soft.

    I saw this place on Instagram so I had bookmarked it for our trip to Vancouver. We stopped in on a Monday at around 2 PM. It's very easy to miss because the sign is very subtle, and the storefront looks like it's closed. It's on the edge of Gastown, so it's still fine but if you walk a block or two further than this, it starts getting a bit shady. I originally wanted to try the honeycomb peak but read mixed opinions on whether or not you should eat honeycomb while pregnant. So instead, I opted for the Brown Sugar Pearls (brown sugar drizzle with tapioca pearls) and hubby had Gastown (homemade tiramisu toppings). Mine was good but nothing amazing, and nothing I couldn't find somewhere else. Hubby's was too sweet for my taste. The annoying thing was that there were little flies everywhere. One took the first bite of my ice cream before I even got the chance to. Maybe we didn't get the right flavors but I would say this spot isn't worth going out of your way for. Luckily, we were already in Gastown.

    Matchamisu seasonal flavour

    When I heard about the new seasonal offering, I made sure to drop by for the matchamisu. As a tiramisu lover, the creamy mascarpone cream was really nice and helped to balance out the bitterness of the matcha soft serve. The lady fingers were well soaked in uji matcha and adds the perfect texture to each bite.

    Clean interior and easy to order. They have great pre planned combos but you can also dream up and include additional toppings. Love the unique offerings. They use organic milk which I love. The ice cream itself isn't very sweet so great for those that don't like things too sweet. It's very creamy. I would love to try again with different flavors as mine didn't have enough punch for me until the end (the brown sugar settled near the bottom). Did have the vibe of brown sugar boba in ice cream form. Service was very quick. There is seating inside available.

    I went to Soft Peaks and got the egg tart parfait for the Vancouver Ice Cream Festival! The ice cream was so incredibly creamy and soft and paired nicely with the egg-tart. The ice cream by itself was a bit basic and the egg-tart was just okay as there was a lot more crust than filling. However, together with the custard sauce, it was better! I really liked the design of the store though. There was a flight of stairs leading to an upstairs seating area and a mirror on the wall where you can take a cute photo. I think I'd have to try another flavour to write a better review!

    Yummy but pricey soft serve. I liked the matcha syrup version. They have seating upstairs

    Ube Sago
    Michele T.

    Needed a quick pick me up after exploring Canada Place and Gastown. Hubs and I shared the seasonal Ube Sago (ube soft sweet with Sago and ube jelly). The soft serve was creamy and full of ube flavor. We liked the Sago and ube jelly with the soft serve - Not too sweet. Quite a few combinations to choose from or customize your own.

    Love love love their soft serves and toppings. Service always is so friendly and helpful.

    Honeycomb matcha
    Carmen P.

    Cute little gem in Gastown. It was quiet as it was a cold night. Tried the honeycomb one. The cornflakes is key in this one as the wax from the honeycomb detracts from the texture. Tried their seasonal matcha one which wasn't bad as I am a fan of red bean. Overall it was great and they even have seating upstairs.

    We found this spot after supper. It was super tasty and and I definitely recommend if you're looking for a cold dessert. Quaint spot with supper friendly staff. They are also quick to make your treat.

    matcha & tiramisu
    Hana T.

    Solid ice cream spot. It's very creamy and quite sweet. The portions are generous. I like how they give the cookie on the side so you can have some textural difference. Yummy treat if you're in the Gastown area. I quite like the tiramisu one because the cacao they add on top is thicker (?) so you can almost "chew" on it. It must be mixed with coffee as well! You can also pick your own flavours and toppings! Depending on what you like!

    Green tea syrup over soft serv

    Great place to grab a quick sweet treat during the summer. The ice cream is super creamy and rich. Eat quickly or it will melt in the summer heat.

    My boyfriend and I happened upon this artisan ice cream shop in Yaletown and we were impressed. We…read moretried the dark chocolate (magnificent) and the matcha (more subtle and for the true pure matcha flavor lover) ice creams and enjoyed seeing the folks there make our ice cream from scratch using liquid nitrogen. The folks working there were kind and professional. They looked like wickedly good witches as they added natural ingredients to their metal cauldrons, and then added the liquid nitrogen, creating a rapidly rising fog. So, really, you are getting ice cream and a show! The concoctions emerged as super smooth, not too sweet, distinct fresh flavorful ice cream. It is a small shop with limited seating, so not likely to be a comfie sit down experience for you given how popular the place is, but it is easy food to take to go and a very nice area for a stroll. So, that's the scoop! ;)

We tried the ice cream sandwich, the creme brulee cup, and the s'mores bar. I would say everything was good, but probably not something we would get again. After a while it just got a little too sweet and the portion was a little big so we didn't finish most of it. The next time I go if I ever go again I would just get one thing and share it because a bite or two is probably all you need to satisfy your sweet craving.

The…read morequality of the ice cream itself is okay - the texture is good, but the flavour is a little weak. When getting the matcha ice cream, I suggest getting straight matcha instead of the twist with vanilla because the vanilla washes out the matcha; it comes through better on its own. The sundaes are fun and a good, more affordable alternative to the similar parfaits at high end matcha cafes. I tried the tuna egg salad crepe and thought it was actually really good! The crepe was fresh and tender, there was a healthy amount of filling, and the tuna salad was actually mostly tuna with just enough mayo to hold it together which is how I prefer it. Again, the service is just through a window - you actually order at an electronic kiosk and the only interaction with a person is when your order is ready. There are two small tables outside if you want to eat there. During the busy summer season, it's very difficult to actually secure one of these tables, but there's other seating on the pedestrian streets just a few blocks away on Robson.

Liked how the parfait has different toppings throughout and the cereal added great texture. Green tea flavor was also good and I liked how it was not too bitter, which sometimes happens with matcha desserts.

Located in a random spot? Check. Only one staff member working? Check. We've been a couple times and I have yet to see it busy. A few people pop in but no one ever lingers. Most likely because there's no seating. There's also a sign on the counter stating you can only sample 2 flavours during peak hours. There's usually 10 to 12 flavours to choose from; always something unique and interesting. They also have sundaes, ice cream sandwiches and doughnuts on the menu. - Mango raspberry swirl and London fog ($7.00 double) - waffle cone is included and it was better than expected. The ice cream itself tastes a bit denser but still has a creamy satisfying texture. The London fog was fantastic! The mango raspberry was more mango than raspberry but also quite good. - London fog ($5.00 single) - came back on a Monday and they only had four flavours that day. We went with the London fog; just as good as the last time. - Dark chocolate and black sesame with honey ($7.00 double) - the dark chocolate tasted like a fudgesicle but better. Not too sweet and hefty; it was so heavy it almost fell off the cone! The black sesame was delicious. Not quite like the ones we had in Japan but tasty and flavourful. I'll be back again and again! Love the laid back, no frills vibe at Rooster's. One of our favourite ice cream spots!

Everything is a bit sweet but that's what you're looking for when you order an ice cream waffle, right?! The Oreo was also a great choice. The tables are a bit small, but it's manageable. If it was full, I may be a bit claustrophobic but I think it's fine if there's some room. Overall, highly recommend for a latte or a sweet treat. They have some seasonal mini leige waffles if you're looking for something on the go!
