    Matcha strawberries
    Sophie T.

    Just delicious shaved ice. Nice and clean location with some tables to sit and enjoy. My faves are the matcha and the blossom, but you really can't go wrong with any of the flavours. Service is friendly as well. Glad they opened up in Vaughan!

    Located in one of Vaughan's busiest plazas full of food options, this Korean bingsu café stands out as one of the best dessert spots in the area especially if you're looking for something beyond bubble tea. As part of a growing chain with several locations across the city, this particular branch impressed us with both its quality desserts and genuinely friendly service. We came as a group of seven, and the staff went out of their way to accommodate us, rearranging tables so we could sit together comfortably. It's those little gestures that make a difference, especially when visiting with a larger group. Our top picks here were the Black Sesame Bingsu and the Tiramisu Bingsu. The Black Sesame Bingsu is a perfect option if you prefer desserts that are less sweet and more refined in flavour. The finely shaved ice is generously dusted with black sesame powder and topped with mochi, red bean, almond flakes, and a scoop of black sesame ice cream. The nutty, earthy notes make this one a standout. The Tiramisu Bingsu is just as delightful, with a mini slice of tiramisu perched on top and then chocolate powder, cheese, and a touch of espresso to bring out that classic tiramisu flavour. Rich and satisfying without being too heavy. The bingsu comes in three sizes: cup, small, and large. We went with the large size, which is perfect for sharing and they conveniently provide sharing bowls to make it easy. We also tried the Butter Bung Eo Ppang (a Korean fish-shaped pastry), opting for the salted butter & red bean filling. It was freshly made, warm, and a comforting and delicious side treat that we'd highly recommend trying if you want something a little different. Whether you're stopping by after dinner or looking for a place to chill with friends, this spot hits the mark.

    2025-04-20. The Cups Vaughan. On Easter Sunday, Vaughan Mills is closed, but many of the peripheral restaurants are still open. The newly opened cups (April 12, 2025) is one such business. Serving Bing Su (Korean shaved ice) and a variety of coffees and other drinks. They also have a small section of cakes. There is plenty of free parking just out front in the plaza. Inside the place is bright and cozy and seats about 28 comfortably. We were here for the Bing Su, and today we tried the Red Bean, the Black Sesame, the Blueberry, and the Tiramisu. The Bing Su itself (I.e. the shaved ice) was very good. Super light and fluffy and is exactly what I expected of Bing Su. 5 stars. Since Bing Su carries no flavour, it relies heavily on what complements it. Black Sesame Bing Su. This had a blend of of black sesame and sugar for the base. A scoop of red bean and a scoop of black sesame ice cream on top. The goblet was decorated with black sesame powder. Both the red bean and black sesame was pretty good. The base was not as sweet as I like, but there was a scoop of condensed milk nestled under the Bing Su, so if you mix it up a bit, you'll get the sweetness you crave! 4 stars. Tiramisu Bing Su. Topped with an actual piece of Tiramisu! The cake was frozen and I was hoping for a mascarpone base, but didn't quite get it. It was coffee based as expected. The goblet was dusted with dark cacao powder. Not bad, but not exactly to my tastes. 3 stars. Red Bean Bing Su. The red bean didn't disappoint but the base was some kind of soy. The goblet was rimmed with soy powder. 3 stars. Blueberry Bing Su. This has a nice blueberry sauce base and like the tiramisu, the blueberries were on the cold side. The blueberries were sweet and was berry enjoyable. 4.5 stars! Overall, the Bing Su was not a disappointment. The shaved ice is the correct consistency and there are a good variety of flavors creatively presented. I want to thank Cindy T. and her staff for filling our Bing Su craving and for the fun experience! If you'd like to experience more come dine-with-me.yelp.com I'd love to have your company! Bon appétit!

I had never heard of it, but apparently they're an established chain. The store is large, bright and cheery. The smell hooks you immediately. It's basically a gourmet doughnut holes shop, with plenty of fancy coffees and cold beverages to accompany. I wanna say, think Tim's crossed with Starbucks, with the emphasis on the Puffs. The puffs are made to order, with so many flavours to choose from. You can purchase half dozen, dozen, and up, and mix the flavours for each half dozen. We bought a combo box of Oreo and Nutella. You can watch the staff preparing the dough in the kitchen, and while they add your toppings at the counter. Idk if they somehow learned about it being a birthday visit, or this is usual, but we got a baker's dozen. I'll take that puff instead of a cherry on top for sure, because they were delicious. They are on the sweet side. Our drinks were also on the sweet side but delicious. The coffee is freshly ground on order and everything tasted fresh. We both opted for coffee based cold drinks but they have slushees, fruity and I think some tea options. The coffee was nice and strong without tasting bitter. The seating was a little odd, cute little stools in line with the honeycomb decor as opposed to chairs. The space felt really open, like your conversation can be heard all around. It was clean and very spacious. The staff on our visit were great. I would definitely return if it were closer to me, and I will totally check out other locations.

    Lumière Pâtisserie is a Thornhill gem--proof that you don't have to go downtown for great pastries…read more Yes, it's tucked into a suburban plaza off a parking lot, but inside it's light-filled, calm, and smells like heaven. The service is consistently warm, and the pastry case is hard to resist. We've tried many of their cakes, and the blackcurrant queen cake is hands down our favorite--tart, elegant, and just sweet enough. Their salted caramel croissant is beautifully laminated and filled with just the right amount of caramel. In fact, their croissants across the board are solid--flaky, tender, and buttery without being greasy. The sourdough bread is excellent, and the espresso drinks are reliably strong and well-crafted. It may look like Paris inside, but don't let that inspire your inner Francophile--the staff are lovely, but no one's following your French. Still, this is the kind of place that keeps regulars coming back. We're definitely among them.

The espresso here is excellent - well-bodied in flavour, medium roast (I think?), and pairs nicely with the sweetness of the cakes & pastries. There's also a wide selection of small personal cakes to choose from - just make sure you come early since they do sell out! We shared the cream & crumb cheesecake (simple, classic, and incredibly creamy!) and tiramichoux (think a tiramisu profiterole - such a fun twist!). Looking forward to my next visit already :)

The only fruit they had was mango and strawberries. We opted for a Mango Bingsu, based on the photos displayed and we enjoy the sweetness and softness of mango. The bingsu we received was topped with what can ONLY be described as FROZEN mango and still not yet defrosted. Never in my wildest imagination did I ever think that it would be served with frozen mango which is usually used for blending smoothies!! My partner did not want to return the barely edible bingsu. The favourite on the dessert was the single small scoop of green tea ice-cream which formed the "leaf" of the strawberry decoration. I truly do recommend getting your bingsu fix elsewhere. I won't be returning. The store is located in the eatery section of H Mart, with ample parking outside in the plaza. PS on further reflection of my review, perhaps I was expecting fresh mango and nowhere on the menu did it specify that the Mango Bingsu is served with fresh mango. Lesson learned.
