It's amazing but personally, I only like it during the warmer months because that's when they have special ones made with ice cream or you can get whatever and they make it into an ice cream sandwich. read more

Honestly I don't have much to say about this place except it's delicious. Super light and creamy. The best flavor hands down is the crème brûlée one. Must try. read more

Yummy cream puffs. This is a Creme Brûlée. Which already has vanilla cream in it. I also got a s'mores with vanilla. They were both really good. Everything you'd want in a cream puff. Just make sure to eat them right away. Or they get a little soggy. Great cream puff though. read more

So happy to see Bearded Papa here! I had it in LA and Vegas and absolutely love it. The puffs are so big and they definitely do not shy away from filling the puffs up! Mine was oozing yummy cream out! I'm simple so my favorite was the honey cream puff. The interior walls are super cute too! read more

Beard Papa’s - Cream brûlée, cream puff with chocolate filling and cheese cake. - Bakeries Near Me - Clovis, California

The employees are all fantastic but management needs to wake up a little. Put your hours of operation on Yelp. Put your phone number on Yelp. You have 50 reviews and you don't even care, obviously. There is no reason you don't have the staff continue to make these items throughout the day. You cannot be out of the with over two hours left before you close. Having a few green tea ones doesn't count. I wanted to get two dozen of these and you lost a $90 sale because you didn't want to possibly waste a few items at the end of the night. It's just flour and sugar which is a minimal loss especially when you sell them at $4 each. You do not put the crème until it is purchased anyways. Why are you going on the cheap? read more

Weird business name but their products are so good! My husband, who is a custard connoisseur, highly approves! I would have posted pictures but they were consumed too fast! They never made it home. Here's how it works, if you've never visited: 2 plain shells (profiterole) to choose from or specialty shells with toppings (chocolate, green tea, cream brûlée, s'more, etc). Pick one of these. Then choose your fillings: ( vanilla, chocolate, one more I can't remember or ice cream for extra $1) Then pay and enjoy! The basic is @ $3.50 and the specialties are a little more. They said they haven't been getting a lot of business. Advertising would help. We only found them because we were just curious about the name. Also, please turn down your music, pretty loud. I understand your employees have to be masked but it's hard to hear them with masking and loud music blaring behind me. I will definitely go back again. Everything was delicious!! read more

First time visiting the Beard based on Yelp reviews. Nice and clean place with friendly staff. Great taste and texture. Not the cheapest but this IS a treat! Overall, I reccomend and will try again. This place deserves 5 stars but until the offerings are increased at 6 pm it will remain a four star. Worth a try... read more

Enjoyed the matcha & chocolate cream puffs and liked that we had options for the filling flavors. Nice to see one nearby and don't have to drive to the Bay Area to eat these tasty treats. read more

I'm glad Beard Papa's finally opened in fresno area and I don't have to drive to Cupertino for my fave cream puffs anymore. Crème brûlée is my favorite and maybe my imagination but tasted better than the one in Cupertino, the flambé was crunchy and torched perfectly. Custard had nice creamy texture and perfect temperature. Puff also had nice texture which is not too hard not too soft because it's made fresh. There was a line but moved quickly, good customer service:-) read more

My family and I where out shopping and we eye spied Beard Papa's. We couldn't resist stopping in and basically bought every option that they had to offer . The service was nice and helpful for us who have never been to the store . The quality was good and the presentation was unique . We are probably just not the cream puff sort of family . I would recommend you all giving it a whirl . Lots of options for all . read more

So in love with this place. I drove by Herndon a few days ago and came across their sign saying it's now open. This place is super popular in San Francisco and Cupertino...so glad they brought one to Fresno. There are many shells to choose from. For example the original, chocolate, green tea, etc and there are 3 types of filling: vanilla, chocolate, and green tea. Their prices are affordable and the cream puffs are so deliciously made. I'm not a sweet tooth and to me, the cream was not too sweet or overfilling. The texture is just right. The gal at the register was sweet and the wait time was not too long. I am hoping more people will know about this place and try it out. It's definitely a must plus supporting small local businesses is great too. read more

Best cream puffs ever! This is a hidden gem that should be located elsewhere. I feel sad that it's hidden in Clovis and totally unappreciated. I keep telling everyone I know about this place, but it's just so out there and it's not very visible. I see people going into the Baskin Robbins next door and I feel sorry for them that they've not had the sense to go to Beard Papas instead for a much more interesting and delicious dessert. This is a seriously underrated and unknown dessert place that really should be at the forefront of Fresno's dessert spots. We try to stop by at least once a month, and service can be slow, but the cream puffs are worth it. All the flavors are good, and they are generous and consistent with the fillings. The creams are light and just the right amount of sweetness. I'd take Beard Papas cream puffs over most French bakeries cream puffs. They are delectable! Trust me, you gotta give them a try! read more

Bay Area native here and I'm so happy to see this place finally in Clovis! I used to get this weekly and whenever I'm in Seafood City. I love it so much with my coffee! And what's even better is it's a walk away from us! Yay! My favorite is their oreo cream puffs and anything chocolate. :) read more

First originated in Japan and finally here in Fresno! I think this is the only Japanese chain store that is in Fresno so far.. a great place to get cream puffs with different flavors ! read more

Excellent cream puffs. Lots of variety, the shells are nice and crispy and the fillings are light. I would personally prefer the fillings to be a little less sweet but it goes well with the outer shell. Nice friendly, faster service. Cute store. Would recommend read more

Best pastry in town. Staff work hard in open kitchen and front desk is efficient and multi task very well. The pastry shell is manageable size with yummy filling of vanilla - chocolate or matcha. Love creme brûlée! read more

Nice to have walked in today and picked up a few yummy treats. Oreo and original puffs both with vanilla filling. I also picked up the mini fluffy cheesecake. All were super tasty! I would definitely go back. read more

The cream puff were ok nothing special. I feel like I could gets these anywhere and possible a lot cheaper.

So good definatly go with the honey butter!! I could eat these things off the floor! Dont get some for home they dont last long in the fridge mabye a day or two at most. read more

Don't advertise your time as closing at 8 pm when you guys close before that. I just came from the store and arrived at 7:54 pm. The doors were locked already. The lady at the counter clearly saw us and when we asked if we can still purchase, she would not even come to the door to say something to us. She was gesturing with her hands something that didn't make any sense. Clearly she still has cream puffs infront of her and could care less about the customer and just wanted to close and get done with her day. Not the best way to run a business. Very disappointing. read more

I'm not motherfuckin playin when I say this place is a hit. I stumbled across this place after visiting poki land. I love me some cream puffs so seeing that this place had some fresh ones like made the same day, I had to get me some. I ended up grabbing all of the flavors that they had besides that plain one. I grabbed Matcha, strawberry, chocolate, honey n butter, crème brûlée and maybe another but I don't remember. They didn't have that chocolate lava thing at the time. I had all of them filled with vanilla filling. U can choose out of three: vanilla, matcha or chocolate. The best one to me was the honey n butter filled with vanilla!!! Don't get me wrong tho cus All em was busssssiiinnn!!!!! I would most definitely go back. I normally don't have a sweet tooth n this place isnt on the super super sweet side, besides maybe the crème brûlée.. u ain't gotta have the munchies to make u come out n grab sum. They that good! Go on n try u one. I'm glad I stopped by. Would like more flavors up tho n the deals to buy in a box would be great since one is quite pricey.. just my opinion. read more

Love beard papa's! Cream puffs are sooo good. Can get little soggy after awhile, so eat it when it's freshly made.

Walked by Beard Papa's on our way to pick up Poki Land for dinner and were immediately set on going back for dessert. We got the box of 5 get 1 free, we got 1 chocolate eclair with chocolate cream, 3 honey butter with vanilla cream and the almond with vanilla cream and 1 plain with vanilla cream. They were amazing! I can't recall the last time I had a cream puff but these were so delicious. I should have taken pictures but they are packaged so cute and I love the bold yellow and blue colors they use. We will back for sure! read more

Omg!!! This place is sooooo soo OISHII (delicious)!!...forgot to take pic. Bought a variety but I had the custard cheesecake with apricot glaze and original with vanilla custard that were both out of this world!!! Definitely coming back soon. read more

I kept seeing this place on FB so when I was in Clovis in the area I decided to give it a try because I love sweets. The girl working wasn't all that friendly, I told her it was my 1st time and all she said was these are the shells and pointed at the case so I picked a Oreo and a chocolate then she says what filling as she pointed at the menu hanging above. A good employee would explain how it works and perhaps suggest a few of the more popular flavors. I wasn't impressed with the product either, they were good but not great and at almost $4 each they were WAY OVERPRICED. read more

Love their chocolate flavor cream puff. I used to get one everyday on my way to class at Berkeley. So happy there is one in Clovis now!

Well, never realized it was Japanese in origin. It was a bit unsettling to consider a food place named after facial hair, but here goes. Sparse inside. Not sure how fresh some of the cream puffs were. There weren't many up front. They take them in the back to fill them after you order. Many flavors and filling combinations. Rather expensive for what you get. The creation myth holds that an old bearded baker in Japan was challenged by some children to come up with something new and violá you get crispy shelled cream puffs. One of us who doesn't care much about cream puffs thought they were pretty good. Too sweet on the inside though. One of us thought the were too crispy and expected a soft, fluffy, European(?) style cream puff. Not sure if they'll make it in the Fresno metro. It's kinda like the crave cookie of cream puffs read more

Found this place while visiting in-laws in Fresno. My 78-yo FIL was raised in Maui and talking about a place they'd go to that sold cream puffs filled with custard. He really missed those cream puffs. And, he can't travel anymore. I'm pretty sure I scored major brownie points bringing him Beard Papa's. I'd happened to show up at the shop near closing and the server hooked me up with extras after she heard his story. So very much appreciated! He was truly touched getting to relive this childhood food memory. Mahalo! read more

Only found in major cities like LA or SF.... So glad it's finally here in Clovis!!!! Light and airy cream puffs, chocolate eclairs are to DIE for!!!! read more

Wowwwwwwww Clovis is moving up in the culinary world lol. This place is incredible!!! If you know, you effing know! And if you don't, well get in the know lol. Pâte à choux is one of the most technical and difficult pastries to make- not just for home cooks but in general. This specialty cream puff store has it down to PERFECTION. And the cream filling is magical. It's not too sweet, it's just perfect and fluffy. Then they have different flavors of filling and you can mix and match accordingly. Love this place. read more

Okay I've been here more than a few times because I love cream puffs and this is the only Beard Papa's in Fresno/Clovis County. All the times that I went I always order a dozen. In the past I would have easily given this place 5 stars because the cream inside the puff was actually filled all the way where all the cream is dripping out in every bite. Now isn't the case. The past three times I went the cream is so less that when I hold it, the cream puff is so light it feels like air. I was just eating bread basically. Yeah I know inflation is happening but the cream puffs isn't cheap and to make the vanilla custard isn't all that expensive, the least they can do is fill it up. I don't know if I'll be coming back, I really wanted to support this place...sigh. read more

I'm so excited Beard Papa's is in Fresno! We used to go to Beard Papas in Southern California for a special treats. Their cream puffs are out of this world, the restaurant is clean and fresh melon, and they always have the nicest people serving cream puffs with a smile! Everyone in Fresno should come get a creampuff! read more

As a first timer, the Oreo cream puff was delicious! I chose the chocolate filling. I will definitely be back!

Love their crème puffs!!! Best place if you are carving something mildly sweet yet satisfying for the sweet tooth.
