Creampuffs have an unassuming elegance. A humble golden dome crown that belies the richness within. A perfectly crisp exterior, christened with a dusting of powdered sugar like the first frost of winter. Inside, a voluptuous cream that exists both light and airy, and yet dense and rich. A cloud of perfection. Each bite an experience in texture and taste, crispiness of the pastry and cool, luxurious cream. Beard Papa is the reliable and quintessential standard.
The first time I had Beard Papa's was yearssss ago in Boston and when I heard that they had a location in Queens, I was so excited. This one is located on the basement level of Skyview Mall, towards the end where you would turn in for the supermarket. It's kind of easy to miss since they also share the space with Gong Cha. There's a few seats for you inside for those who want to eat it there but it's more of a grab and go item. They take your order and fill the shells with cream on the spot so it's basically made fresh to order. It also keeps the shell crispy so there's a lovely texture contrast when you eat it with the delicious filling. I love their cream puffs cause they don't skimp on the cream (it literally oozes out with each bite). I also love their flavored shells (taro, oreo, strawberry, etc.) cause the glaze is delicious and does capture its intended flavor. The cream inside is also yummy. I highly recommend eating it as soon as possible, if not immediately, for prime freshness. I usually eat it within minutes of getting it (especially in the summer when it's suuuper hot out) and it does not disappoint!
After attending an event here, whenever I go into this mall I stop at bears pappas, yup it's that good especially when you get the pastry with ice cream in the middle mmmmm. Service is always good, helpful and quick.
Beard Papa's cream puffs always have a special place in my heart. They're light, fluffy, and airy - basically, everything a cream puff should be. Over the years, I've sampled a variety of their small cream puffs, and they never disappoint. On a recent visit, I decided to try their green tea cream puff and strawberry cream puff. Both came out slightly cold, making them the perfect snack for a hot summer day. * Strawberry Cream Puff ($4.2) The best way I can describe this is like strawberry Pocky in cream puff format. Fluffy, light, and airy - it's like biting into a strawberry cloud. Didn't realize this was a limited flavor when I tried this but super happy I got it. Prefer this better than the green tea flavor. * Green Tea Cream Puff ($4.1) The green tea topping/glaze has a strong white chocolate taste rather than green tea. I was hoping for a bolder green tea flavor here. Good thing I filled it with green tea, which was pretty standard - think green tea Pocky vibes. If you haven't tried Beard Papa's yet, you're seriously missing out. These cream puffs are a dream come true!
I don't remember the cream puffs being so cold. The green tea was flavorful but nothing special. The s'mores had vanilla custard and it was average. I liked that the custard is light, smooth and airy.
Little shop hidden in the corner. Shared space. Light and airy cream puffs. Special flavors of the week? and the basic ones. Strawberry is seasonal flavor. Limited seating in the store. No wait service. Order and pickup at the counter. Cashier tries to be friendly and help
It's been a while but the food has never changed. My go-to cream puffs are: 1. Honey butter 2. Green tea 3. Oreo 4. S'mores I'm not into cream puffs like that but everytime in skyview i crave it and have to get it!
Awesome cream puffs! I love their custard-like cream filling with crunchy outside. Tried original and green tea flavor and both are really delicious!! Quick service and easy to walk in and take out your puffs of choice!
My friend grabbed these puffs on her way back from NYC. After an 4-hour drive, these puffs still tasted great. I don't really know the names of the puffs so I'll just break them down by color. Chocolate looking puff: the cream and the chocolate complement each other so well! The cream oozes out from the side after each bite. Green looking puff: the taste was good. This was the only puff that I heated it up a bit and the flavors are still there. Pink looking puff: my mom ate the pink one and said every bite was rich in flavor. I really liked the fact that each bite essentially had three layers of flavor: sweet, creamy, and a bit of a pastry taste on the bottom of each bite. When I visit NYC, I would love to try these puffs when they're hot and fresh!
Purple ube with green tea ice cream was so delicious!! My friend got the cheesecake and it was really small but really yummy
It was a great reminder of when we had them in Japan! Not overly sweet, very fluffy and light, and the crust was flaky. It's inside the mall and seafood market so you will be surrounded by those smells. The service was very nice and helpful in our order.
This location of Beard Papa's is located downstairs in Skyview Mall, partially sharing its space/seating area with the Gong Cha next-door. Although it has a pretty small setup, the service was quite quick. There are some tables and chairs for indoor seating, but the chairs are very visibly soiled/dirty. Another thing to note is that you'll need to hit the $5 minimum before you can pay with credit card. Creme Brulee Puff with Vanilla Filling: At first glance, the cream puff is significantly smaller than what I'm used to during my visits to other Bears Papa's locations in the past, which was a bit disappointing. It was nice that the creme brulee portion of the puff was warm, in contrast to the cooler filling inside. The vanilla filling was not too sweet at all, which was pleasant.
Came here to try the chocolate cream puff with vanilla powder. It taste sweet and fragile. The texture was smooth. Service was good and the place is clean. Has many other options. Many flavours for cream puffs. Suitable for a small dessert.
Great cream puffs - they are so large and airy . I tried the basic recipe cream puff and one green tea cream puff. Both were really tasty. There are many chocolate topped ones for chocoholics. Price is pretty reasonable. Nice employees too ! read more
I first ate one of these deletable treats in Shanghai, China. Ever since then, I have been in love with them. Then when it first opened in Manhattan, I was more than happy to travel to the city just to get a box for my family every month or two. Eventually, this location opened up and I was ecstatic. Over the years, I have come here for their cream puffs many times, and introduce them to many family and friends. Original is still by far my favorite. Unfortunately, my most recent purchases have been disappointing. There was less cream and the shell was not as crispy. I hope they regain their old ways before they lose long time customers like myself. read more

**Please note, this review is solely on the service and ethics of the Flushing location, not the food. I received coupons from shops at Skyview for the holiday season and saw that Papa Beard was participating in this promotion period. They had a coupon for $2 off a single item, and it finally gave me a reason to drop by to try their cream puffs. However, when I went to order and use the coupon, the cashier just pointed at the coupon they stuck on the side of the glass divider. Handwritten in pen states that there needs to be a minimum purchase of $10 in order to use the coupon. I did not see other shop in Skyview add any requirements to their coupons to force customers to spend more than what they intended to. If they had specified this in the original printed coupon and not just add it on for customers to see when they come to the store, then I would not have purposely commuted there. This may be a minor issue to some, but I believe that businesses should have principle and I don't agree with this. read more

First of all. We are sorry that you have a bad experience with us.…
Cream puffs are always such a guilty pleasure. Assortment of cream puffs and cream filling are great! Go early in the day to get the full plethora of flavors. Arriving later in the day may mean certain items like the tiny puffs to be sold out. Full sized morsels are priced at $4- 5 each depending on puff and cream combo. Vanilla is a bit plain but the matcha was finger lickin good. I have yet to try the ube, but will be ordering that next time I stop by! read more
Every bite tasted like heaven! This has to be one of my favorite cream puff places in NYC. I got an assortment for my friend's housewarming and it was such a hit. They are located inside Skyview Mall on the ground level next to Skyfoods supermarket. It shares the same space as Gong Cha. Menu is customizable for the most part. You can pick different pastry shells and different fillings, which includes cream filling or ice cream filling. Price: I think they are reasonable compared to other cream puff places. They are a little under $4 each. Cream Puff - SO GOOD! The pastry was airy and the cream was just right; sweet enough where it taste like a dessert but not too sweet where you can't eat the whole thing. I was able to consume 2 in one sitting vs usually, when I get cream puffs from other places, I can only eat 1. Also since they put the cream in when you order, it doesn't get soggy. The pastry holds it's shape well. I ate it more 8 hours later and it was still good! My favorite is the Honey & Butter shell with the Vanilla filling. A close second would be Green Tea shell with Green tea filling. I was not impressed with the cookie and cream shell. It was their limited flavor at the time. I can't wait to try more! read more

It was just okay. The staff were really nice but the cream puffs weren't anything special. The shells didn't seem very fresh although the option to have different flavours was nice. The filings were okay. The vanilla was much nicer and than the green tea. The cream puffs were smaller than I expected compared to other places. The store is split between Beard Papas and Gong Cha with a shared seating area which unfortunately wasn't very clean. We were there towards the end of the day so that might have affect our experience but it overall it was just fine. read more
Colorful presentation and "not too sweet " dessert option, the cream puff is a must have item if you visit. They are bigger than my fist, you can choose a outer shell and a stuffing you like and they don't need to be unified. For example I got an ube(purple) shell with matcha(green tea) custard stuffing. Yummy! Haven't tried the macaroons yet but they are going to be my next to destroy! read more

I'm not big on desserts, so enjoying a Cream Puff was unexpected. I followed fellow Yelper Raymarts guidance and ordered an Original Shell with Vanilla filling and also chose a Crispy Almond Shell with Vanilla filling. Beard Papa's Cream Puffs reminds me of an Italian Lobster Tail, but much better in my opinion. I think it's due to Beard Papa's simplicity of the perfect sized crisp yet tender Pate Choux shells. These shells are crammed with light and creamy, not overly sweet filling, pumped to the gills of each shell after your orders are placed. Filling the shell at time of order renders a crisp shell. Flushing has the goods on globally diverse eats brought from afar. Thanks to my Yelp friends, and especially Anna, I have been introduced to a variety of cuisines this side of Queens and have yet to be disappointed. If you haven't tried a Beard Papa's Cream Puff try it, you may like it. read more
I actually popped my cherry at their St. Marks Place location many moons ago so I am already a fan of Beard Papa's yummy cream puffs. After dim sum, my friends and I walked over to Beard Papa's located inside of Skyview Center for dessert. I ordered one Strawberry and one Cookies & Cream shell with Vanilla filling. Most of my friends got the Mini Puff Set, Chocolate Fondant, and etc. Note: Don't forget to take a punch card to track all your visits which is only valid at their Skyview Center location! I brought my cream puffs to share with my parents. OMG, it has been so long since I ate one of these babies mmmm *mama like* My parents really love the cream puffs #score I will be back to try the rest of the menu mmmm =) read more
I don't normally crave cream puffs but would definitely think of Beard Papa's when I'm in the mood for something light, airy and not too sweet. I do not recommend cutting into these as the filling inside would burst or pour out and you don't wanna waste a single dollop of the goodness inside! I really enjoyed the honey butter glaze one as the shell and the green tea filled ones. Ordered a box of 6 in advance on the app and total came out to ~$25. The staff packaged them nicely in a to go box as well. read more

Another great dessert spot in flushing! Finally got around to trying this place and it did not disappoint. Beard papa's is located in skyview mall on the ground floor by the gongcha. There's space to sit and eat as well. They have a lot of options. Vanilla, strawberry, matcha, ube and a few more. And vanilla or matcha for custard filling options. I went with the ube with matcha custard. A solid (5/5)!! The pastry was light, airy, and crisp. The custard is abundant and not too sweet. Very tasty and completes the dessert. There's an option to replace custard with ice cream so that will have to be for next time! read more

This place is located inside the Skyview Mall. It is right next to Gong Cha. One of us is a fan of Beard Papa's cream puffs. They're delicious. Service were always fast. read more
I love the concept and idea , taste isn't bad but the prices are too steep in my opinion for what you are getting. Macarons are three dollars each. The cream puffs with tax are like four dollars each. To describe the taste , the outside just tastes like the bottom hard bread of a triangle pizza slice. Inside tastes like just melted ice cream, no unique flavor. Just melted Luke warm ice cream. It was not a thick pastry. Kind of airy. It's okay. read more
3.5/5! Warning - they do not last a walk in summer weather (70 degrees!). Consume immediately! Made that mistake with my creme brulee and strawberry one as the cream turned the bottom and side part of my cream puff into a soggy, soaking mess. Overall, I do like these, but I've definitely had better. The choux's outside is much airier and balloons up, and the skin is fairly thin. However, the filling's overall consistency doesn't compare to Bibble & Sip's. Creme brulee cream puff: you can skip this, it really just tastes like a more sweetened version of the original. Also kinda like an egg tart taste too Strawberry cream puff: my favorite limited edition flavor, the strawberry cream actually comes with real pieces of fruit inside. Normally I don't care for fruity things, but this fruity cream is very deliciously smooth Matcha: the batch I received wasn't whipped very well (as you can see in the pictures the separation of the white and green parts of the cream) but the matcha is pretty spot on, with a much more bitter matcha taste than you're probably accustomed to. read more
Haven't had cream puffs for a while! Thanks to my friend! I was able to bring some home from Flushing. I didn't realize that all puffs can be customized with the fillings. I got 4 of them: S'mores, matcha, creme brulee and the original. I had s'mores so far. It was so good! The puff shell was crispy and not sweet at all with the sweet vanilla filling and topped with chocolate coding & marshmallow. Yum! Can't wait to have the rest of the puffs. read more

Cream puffs heaven!! Omg heavenly good cream puffs! And not that sweet which is good! Location: it is located inside the mall. It has great display of cream puffs and the flavors are shown. Service: they are nice gives you recommendation. Food: you can chose the cream puff and the filling! My favorite is the STRAWBERRY cream puff with GREEN TEA cream inside! I know it is weird but reminds me of Sakura flavors of Japan. :) SMORES is good too! And they have CHURROS as well! The creams comes on original, cookies and cream and green tea! Just mix and match! You will be back for more anyways! Price rating: 4 out of 10. Very cheap for the big cream puff! Definitely will come back! Best cream puff in NYC! Get the strawberry cream puff with green tea filling! Sakura inspired! read more
Aside for my love for french fries and sushi, I absolutely LOVE cream puffs - especially ones from Beard Papa's! There aren't a lot of places in flushing that sell delicious cream puffs but regardless, Beard Papa's cream puffs are to die for!! I've only gotten mini puffs because they're so cute and convenient to try a variety of flavors in smaller quantities. I've tried the Classic cream puffs with vanilla and green tea fillings and literally cannot stop after one cream puff. The cream puffs literally melt in my mouth with its fresh crispy shell and delicious filling. I've bought for friends and family who never had Beard Papa's before and every person had complimented the deliciousness of the cream puffs. For people who count calories, Beard Papa's displays the amount of calories of each item on the TV screen! I think that's absolutely helpful to people who are conscious of their calorie intake. The staffs are all really nice and the service is amazing! Every time after they finish my order and call out my number, they say thank you! I love the way they treat their customers! I absolutely recommend and will definitely come back to try the bigger cream puffs as well as other flavors!! read more
