We were there on Friday for lunch. We ordered chicken sandwich, roast beef sandwich and Lux crepe; they were all good; the side salad came with the sandwich was fresh with right amount of dressing. 4 stars for lunch. We should order their tea instead of Americano :S It was our fault. 3 stars for coffee There wasn't much choice for dessert in the afternoon. 3 stars. read more

Not good. Expected a cafe to serve good expresso drinks. But what I got was a water down version. I ordered a mocha, taste was not even close. Tasted water down. The milk with water was filled 3/4 and the expresso was on top. The other cup was an Americano. No coffee flavor what so ever. If you want to operate a cafe, please make good expresso. read more

When my friend and I first sat down, the waitress came fo attend to our needs right away. My friend and I ordered the chocolate fondue (serves 2 people). The melted chocolate was incredible and surpassed my expectations. The chocolate fondue was served with a mixture of fruits including sliced bananas, strawberries,raspberries and blueberries. In addition, the dish was served with several treats including shortbread cookies and oreo cookies. I wish I could lick the chocolate right off the plate. Overall, I would highly recommend it. read more

I had very nice Persian tea and Neapolitan cake. Can't wait to come back to try more of their other products, too. There is parking in the back, though the entrance is rather hidden (on the south side of the house) read more

Wonderful place- lovely staffs, great selection of fine Persian tea and beautiful pottery- I always want to buy everything..!

This is a Persian owned cafe , I like their pastry , especially rollette and napolitain , they are not too sweet . I have been there few times to get some rolls and cookies, but every time I experienced very cold service, I wasn't greeted , not even say "hi" or a smile! Today I was passing by , so I decided to pop in , they weren't busy , only one lady there picking up her cake , so I waited... and waited .....again I was ignored even tho I was standing right in front of counter and there were 3 staffs ! And then another Persian lady walked in , guess what ,they just skipped me and started to help that lady , another few minutes past , finally someone said to me " I'm coming " with a squeezed fake smile on her face , and then turned around doing something else ! My patient met the limit , so I left ! You will get better service there if you are Persian . read more

Very nice and cozy place. Liked that place for the atmosphere. Food is great too. Delish smoothies. A lot of fresh choices. Great coffee.

Ordered a cake from there, although the cake looked beautiful but it tastes horrible! and it was suppose to be a pistachio cake, but they make a walnut cake instead. I would never order a cake from there again. But their pastries are good. read more

i love the customer service and for sure zolbia & bameye.

I was very pleased to read the reviews of BB Cafe here on Yelp. Surprisingly, a hidden gem in an obscure plaza. When you walk in, you'll see the mouthwatering desserts on the display counter. We came in for lunch, and I ordered the vegetarian panini with grilled zucchini, Bell pepper, portobello mushrooms, and tomatoes in a light mayonnaise spread. My boyfriend ordered Roast Beef on baguette. Both came with a side of greens with olives and balsamic dressing. My panini was very good. I didn't get to try the roast beef, but with the way he ate it, I'm sure it must be good. The Persian tea was light and smooth, a perfect accompaniment to the rolls. Again, he finished the marble roll and no chance for me to try, but the vanilla pistachio was awesome. Not too sweet, but fluffy and light. Our server was very friendly, and I was impressed with the cleanliness of the place and the washroom. I would definitely be back. read more

See all

The food and drinks here are quite good, however, service is incredibly slow. There is also very limited parking as it is situated in old-richmond hill. read more

We were here with a group of 4 adults and 2 kids. The service was super slow but the food was good. Servers were friendly, but can't get past the fact how long we had to wait. We waited about 1/2 hour for a glass of water. And after we ordered our desserts (pre-made cake slices). It took them over 20 minutes to bring us our desserts. Service was poor in the sense that we had to wait and misleading information & menu. We had ordered ice cream waffles and banana split with a banana strawberry smoothie. After we got the smoothie, everyone else got their desserts (pre-sliced cakes) the banana split and ice cream waffle was no where to be found. Asked the server and the server advised that they ran out of bananas, and their waffle machine isn't working. That's when I told them my order for main course was the Atlantic Waffle, so if the waffle machine is not working, then they should let me know in advance to pick another main. After 1/2 hour later, the server came back with a banana split (I guess they went to the store to get some) and ice cream waffle... but the banana split had no whip cream on it (menu states that there's whip cream). The ice cream waffle had no ice cream... so both had to be sent back to have them properly added. That's when they told us that they realized the waffle machine wasn't plugged in properly.... Description on the mocha states that it's artisan coffee with art work, but it was just coco powder sprinkled on top of my mocha. No art work to be found here. Another group of 5 showed up after us and sat across the room from us. As soon as they arrived, the server had told them they are busy so it will be a bit of a wait. They sat down and waited to be served. After 1/2 hour of wait, no server came up to get their orders and they didn't even get a glass of water. So they got up and left. Despite the LONG wait for the food and the numerous incorrect orders, the food was delicious. We arrived at 8pm for a quick dinner (main & desserts), and we ended up staying there until 11pm... not that we wanted to, but we had to since they took forever. None the less, when we were all done. The cashier (which I think is the owner) asked for our opinion. We gave her our opinion more as recommendations on how they can improve, but she turned to the server and asked her to jot it down. There was some attitude there and we felt like the server was being blamed. However, that's not the case as the server did try her best to serve everyone (both up and downstairs plus the cake stand). They should hire more staff for both on the floor and in the kitchen to make it more efficient. Although the food was good, the experience was a complete turn off for me. We will not be returning again. read more

Amazing service and food! I came across this café by accident while walking around downtown Richmond Hill. I discovered this café 2 weeks ago and have been there 3 times already. I have tried the coffee, espresso, lunch and many desserts and can say they are all fresh and worth the price you pay. I love the design of the café, very cozy and modern at the same time. There is a second floor that is perfect for studying or working on the laptop. Free Wi-Fi, great lighting, comfy seats/booths, and enough electric plugs. One thing that I appreciate is that even though this is a Persian café and the server will often speak their language they treat everyone equally with outstanding service. read more

Worse service of my life, the front desk was multitasking and running around. They were short staffed and extremely unprofessional. The service was VERY slow we waited for a coffee almost 39 minutes! The milk and cream was provided so late that my coffee was cold, the coffee was disgusting and extremely strong. My boyfriend was very upset since his cappuccino was cold as well and all phom! We wanted to buy some pastry/ Iranian cookies to take home and perhaps try a few in the cafe shop but the lady that served us would not allow that and made the conversation very confusing and stressful. Shortly after we sat down we realized another lady beside us has done that is eating some pastry from a take out box! Worse experience ever, worse coffee and worse customer service! NEVER EVER going there again and I will tell all my friends and relatives in Richmond Hill! read more

Went tonight for some tea and I wanted to try one of their delicious sounding salads. The spinach Brie and pear salad was delicious and very reasonably priced. Parking behind the restaurant was a plus for Yonge Street. Go if you have plenty of time to sit. read more

Very intimate and cozy. Excellent service and a lovely menu. Great place for dessert or a nice lunch.

Worst place for Turkish coffee! Waste of money and time. I love Turkish coffee and dropped by BB Cafe with my husband. Ordered only Turkish coffee and it took over 30 mins for a coffee order. Presentation was terrible with coffee spilt on the side of cups and it came different saucers. Further more, while waiting we noticed that the couple by the window didn't finish their tea and pastries and left. We did the same. After a couple of sips, we divided to just pay and leave. Not worth the money. read more

This place is right next to my house. I love coming to BB Café to get some quiet time and some study time. It is such a cozy place to come and sit by myself while my son is at music school nearby. I love tea and their authentic Persian tea is phenomenal. From the tea pot, to the tea cups, everything was beautiful. Just to try something different, I also get the vanilla pistachio roll. Delicious! read more

Great atmosphere to have tea and deserts . The service is always very good and the deserts are always fresh .

My boyfriend and I love going to cafes and decided to try this one out. The cafe was decorated really nicely and quite busy when we went. I ordered the Pistachio Rollet and tasted average. We sat there for around 1.5 hours to study, but the cafe was very cold. They had windows open in the middle of winter! Not sure if we will be coming back. read more

BB Cafe - Pistachio Rollet - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Richmond Hill, Ontario

My bf and I came here on a weekday afternoon to just relax and grab something light to eat. They have a very wide selection of things on their menu, but we got the south west savoury crepe($12), grilled chicken breast panini($9), and persian tea ($3). The food was okay, it was fine for a light lunch. I did like the whole atmosphere upstairs and the background music. It was a nice, quiet place for us to talk and spend time. I did however have a hard time pouring the tea because it kept spilling each time. This happened the first time i came with my friend. Not sure if its the pot or us. There arent too many nice cafés near this richmondhill area so this place is good to study or spend an afternoon. read more

Had their Turkish coffee and a chocolate rollet. The coffee itself was percolated on their gas stove and was a little weak compared to other Turkish coffees. The ambience was nice with large, comfy chairs and a fireplace on the ground floor. The owner extremely friendly, cheerful, and accommodating, . They have a large selection of Persian pastries to choose from, so I think I'll have to stop by another time to sample some more. read more

This is a fantastic and place, the coffee here is the best in the world, even better than Britain. I also like the waitress, she is pretty, very charming. read more

Excellent cafe, they have a very warm and cozy atmosphere and more private lounge upstairs. The teas are great and they offer many persian desserts. Awesome for a date or just to study. I usually get jelabi or backlava with tea. They always have fresh flowers on each table. Prices are similar to starbucks. But overall very unique and high quality service and food. read more

Very cozy place. The food is great. Only problem, it is more of a cafe/desert place rather than a full restaurant, so their full course menu is more limited. read more

Upstairs is pretty cozy and private, really good for study or meeting up with friends. The herbal tea wasnt too special, but their deserts are ok. read more

Pastries are made to perfection. If you want to have true persian pastries, here is the place to go. Cream puffs are to die for. I will highly recommend visiting here if you are ever in Toronto. read more

Really amazing tea here, desserts are fresh and not too expensive. The place has a nice vibe to it as well as it is so cozy alongside relaxing music. The only complaint I would have is the service. Since we are a repeat customer we notice this every time. Once we sat on the second floor and told the server that we would be up here, she said okay. About 20 minutes later of waiting (they were quiet that day) I decided to remind them that we still haven't taken our orders, lol. It's okay though the tea forgives itself! read more

Service could be better but their desserts are AMAZING. Light and fragrant, I think I'm hooked on Persian sweets! Presentation and atmosphere is comfortable and cozy. Was so good we bought some more to go :) read more

My wife and I came across this cafe 3 months ago, after a nice reading session at the Richmond Hill Library near the cafe. At first, I was unsure of what to get, but the workers/staffs there were more than happy to aid us pick our orders. Even though, my wife and I enjoy to leisurely take our times while choosing our orders, which could be very difficult and frustrating for some staffs, the staffs were very enduring and easy-going despite us taking a long time. We ended up having variety of different and unique teas. Definitely one of our favourite spots to visit, and have visited multiple times since. Prices are very reasonable and affordable. Also can't miss out how pretty and aesthetic the place looks. Would definitely recommend this place for anyone who is looking for a peaceful study place, or a place to chat with your friends. read more

Not enough tables on the first floor, overall could be much cozier atmosphere.

cozy place specially in the winter with great stuff. Honestly u can't go wrong w Persian pastry. I always get my birthday cakes from here

came here with my gf. we both loved this place. it was my first time having persian sweets. i gotta say the cream puff and the rolls were my favorite. i recommend this place to anyone who wants great desserts. read more
