    Reviews With Photos - Sweet Puffin

    At the former location of Beard Papa's on Imperial Street, Burnaby, the interior has not changed. It's still spare and clean. I ordered a regular sized cream puff with their daily special, which is the hazelnut flavour, and a shot of espresso coffee to go. In my opinion, a good cream puff isn't overstuffed with custard, which it was. Fortunately, the custard itself wasn't overly sweet :) But the amount really was too much. Perhaps they might become more edible if the serving was smaller. when I came home, I had to spoon the excess custard out. The espresso was very good but they don't have lids available for the takeaway cups in the espresso size :(

    Dessert and bubble tea shop at the SE corner of Royal Oak and Imperial. Parking is available (metered) on Royal Oak, with free spots on Imperial in the evenings. The place is nice and modern. Decent amount of seating. Staff (1 person) was friendly and helpful. My biggest complaint is they have no (real) fruit options for their bubble teas. Syrup only. Knock 1 star off. The matcha latte I had was pretty tasty though.

    Beard Papa got replaced and evolved into Sweet Puffin. Basically everything inside including the menu are exactly the same as Beard Papa. We have noticed that after it became Sweet Puffin, the cream puffs got a lot bigger. Same old rule, each day they offer 3 different flavors of cream puffs to choose from. Service has been great. The place is always busy with lots of students. Inside is quite nice with lots of seats. I do notice people do end up staying for quite some time. Their pastries are all freshly made. Super tasty. I highly recommend coming here if you have not been.

    Wow! Can't believe nobody's reviewed this place yet. We didn't have particularly high expectations, but that chocolate eclair green tea cream puff blew us away! I mean, where else do you get such a decently sized cream puff -- let alone a well-made one -- for $4.80 in this day and age?? The eclair shell was perfectly crunchy with thick chocolate, and the green tea cream was deliciously creamy without being too sweet. We also got the chocolate fondant. On the sweeter side, but the chocolate filling was just the right amount of oozy. A couple minor downsides: - the daily special filling (chocolate) had run out by the time we visited (around 8:30pm) - the drink menu is not particularly special or enticing - tableware & cutlery are all disposable rather than reusable; the medium-sized garbage can was overflowing Overall, would 100% return for the cream puff!

    The creampuffs here are huge and delicious! They offer mini and normal sized. Lots of tables and service is great. The place is very clean and love the minimalistic decor.

    Saw this place on tiktok and had to give it a try. My bestie and I were visiting from America…read more The food and atmosphere was so amazing. The girl working behind the counter was so sweet and recommended some stuff off the menu. We loved everything we had. Even talked to some locals inside and they were so friendly and gave us some more recommendations in the area.

    This place closed down for awhile and then reopened. This was our first visit back since they…read morereopened. Gotta be honest, it's not as good as it used to be. The menu has shrunk considerably and their business days/hours are also a lot less than what it was previously. The drinks were not as tasty as they used to be. My Blue Rose drink was the best of the bunch and I would say even that was just OK. I enjoyed the Lychee jelly in my drink. That was probably the best part of the drink. The liquid part was kinda "meh" for me. I think the best thing we ordered was the matcha soft serve ice cream. On the flip side, there was a guy playing piano there and they were taking requests. I suggested Demon Slayer and the guy played the famous "Gurenge" song by Lisa from season one of Demon Slayer. That was kinda cool. He was a very good pianist. Great way to liven the atmosphere. Also, there was a guy who came around and gave us all tiny paper cranes. It's nothing much, but still always nice to be gifted with anything at all. Business must be hard for them. It would sure be nice to see them return to how they used to be, with a bigger menu, tastier drinks and more days/hours again. We love this place for the manga/ anime vibes that it exudes, and love the Matcha soft serve ice cream they sell here. Really wanna give this place a higher rating but the drinks were really not up to par this time, and as much as we love the Matcha ice cream, it is not by itself enough to warrant giving out a higher rating. If they could just improve the quality of their drinks again...then even if they menu remains limited, at least if everything they serve is of good quality...that would be enough to merit a higher rating.

    We pre-ordered a cake from Sugar Lab Pancake House for a friend's birthday, and it was a great…read morechoice since they love crepe cake. This place is well known for its mille crepe cakes, and we can see why. The cake was light, soft, and beautifully layered with what looked like 30+ thin layers. They offer 15+ flavours, including durian, mango, matcha, pistachio, and tiramisu, so there are plenty of options. We liked that the cake was not too sweet, which made it easy to enjoy. It felt like a perfect dessert for a celebration with friends or family. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. The service is a bit slow, but we think it is worth the wait since everything is freshly prepared. Overall, we had a lovely experience and would order again for another special occasion. Food: 4/5 Should Try! Service: 4/5 Kids: 5/5 Woohoo! Price: around $10+ each pastry Presentation: 2/5 Parking: Available on-street with meters. Tips: * 8-inch crepe cakes can be customized with 2-5 flavours. * Recommend pre-ordering one day in advance for whole cakes. * Credit card only over $20, otherwise cash.

    A few of us came here for desserts…read more Food: 4/5 - we found the desserts to be fresh and tasty. The layered crepe cake was just right - not too sweet. We tried both the matcha and pistachio crepe cake and I found the pistachio to have a nicer flavor. Someone had the durian slush and they loved it. If you love durian, it's a must try as it packed a strong smell! The mango fruit was fresh but there were annoying fruit flies buzzing around. Another had the mango with taro mochi ice dessert. The mochi was delicious. Overall we found the prices to on the higher end. Ambiance: 4/5 - nice clean place with plenty of seating. It looked new. It was nice to see some of their cakes in the window but the selection was limited. There was seating available without a time limit. Service: 4/5 - you choose your seat and a server comes over to take your order. You pay when you leave. Note: they only accept credit card payments over $20 otherwise it's cash. Luckily a friend paid on my behalf. Parking: paid parking is available out front.

    This place is just across the Amazing Brentwood mall. I asked the staff what's their specialty and…read moreshe said their cheesecakes are really good especially their original one. I ordered their sweet potato cheesecake instead because I have never tried it before. It sure didn't disappoint! The cheesecake is creamy and not overly sweet. We also ordered a latte and a lavender oat latte. Their latte isn't too strong but their lavender oat latte is good. There is a strong lavender flavor. I think their best dessert is their tiramisu. It's huge! Totally worth the money! We went just before dinner and surprised that the place is actually quite busy. There is limited underground parking available but there are lots of street parking.

    My daughter selected this coffee bar so we could sit together and a couple of beverages…read more The menu variety was appealing to us. A maple latte and a strawberry match latte sounded good. The service was quick and we snagged the last open table. The interior was eclectic and the outdoor style chairs that were used for inside seating were a bit uncomfortable but it all contributed to this intimate, non chain, independent cafe. The strawberry matcha latte was a standout! The real strawberry pieces mixed within were delightful. The maple latte was just average. Nothing at all exciting to report. For some reason it lacked luster. Unfortunately it was enough to cot them a star.
