    S'mores
    Brooke R.

    Stopped in for the first time last weekend. Never have been in a beard Papa's location but the visual posters on the windows lured me in. The duo behind the counter I assume the owners, were very accommodating and helpful explaining the different options. I wanted to try everything but settled with an cookies and cream Puff with ube filling and a s'mores puff with original vanilla cream. The lady behind the counter let us taste the creams before we made our final decisions. Excellent customer service, fresh food, lots of options and a clean dining room. The cream in both puffs with excellent, light sweetness not too heavy and made for a fun treat. It is downtown Tracy so parking maybe a hassle, but it's worth stopping by. Definitely will be coming back when I head into town next time.

    Assorted puffs

    I bought 7 puffs the day I went with my cousins. Major throw back to my college days when they had them across from SJSU. Custard flavors available when I stopped by: vanilla, chocolate, ube. Cream Puffs: *Dubai Chocolate Shell x2: vanilla & chocolate filling *Matcha Shell + Vanilla *Ube Shell + Ube *Creme Brûlée Shell + Vanilla *Plain Shell + Vanilla The vanilla custard filling is a little sweet for me now but I liked the chocolate! Not too dark or rich. Both were creamy and held up well. The Dubai shell is dipped in chocolate coating and topped with pistachio pieces and crispy kataifi (shredded phyllo dough). I really liked this with the chocolate custard filling. My dad enjoyed the ube white chocolate shell filled with ube custard, not too sweet. They also have mini puffs! Six pieces per order, mix & match custard filling flavors. Not limited to puffs, they offer Korean shaved ice and milk tea/fruit tea drinks as well. Service was pretty good; they have nice staff. The place is spacious and inviting. Great place to enjoy your snack/dessert.

    The best cream puff around. Store boasting big luxury seat, puffs to order and a massive air purification system that scrubs the air in the dining room. The best cream puffs around. Made to order so there is never a soggy bottom. Nobody likes a soggy bottom. Thats never good. Vanilla or chocolate or flavor of the day fillings combined with countless shells makes for seemingly infinite options to satisfy everyone. S'mores was very satisfying with vanilla bean filling. Oh Piggy. Flavorful authentic vanilla bean filling with a non soggy shell and a bit of a crunch to the chocolate covered goodness. Perfectly toasted marshmallows on top. I'm seriously searching Zillow to see if there is a reasonably priced home very nearby so that I could always be within walking distance. Wonderful dining area. Big luxury seat that my kitty would make himself home in. Ridiculously comfortable looking. When compared to the Castro Valley location I really admire all the little personal touches here. A massive air purification system had me swooning. Interior air quality couldn't have been better. Often times bakeries have a stuffy feeling to them but not here. It was Starbucks quality air. Pleasant to the nose and you could tell this industrial sized system was tirelessly scrubbing all the air and many many cubic feet per minute. A perfect experience. I love a bakery that does one thing and does that one thing better than anybody else. I could confidently serve these desserts to discriminating family members on a holiday - and its so very sad to say the average bakery out there I wouldn't dream of such a thing.

    Chocolate, s'mores, crème brûlée and ube

    A must try if you love eclairs! I haven't had Beard Papas in years since I went to their SF location. It was as amazing as I remembered! I got the Ube, chocolate, smores and crème brûlée. Don't ask me which was my favorite because I'll say all 4. It does have a LOT of filling in my opinion, but some may prefer that. I scraped off a good amount just because of preference. The employee was really sweet and helped me decide, she was quick and the establishment was very clean!

    Dubai chocolate and Oreo

    I haven't had a Beard Papa's in years and when I came here, their menu has expanded. The pastry options are almost the same with new ones like honey butter and s'mores. The fillings are vanilla, chocolate or ube custard. They also now offer a variety of drinks and shaved ice desserts. They also have the Dubai chocolate. Surprisingly not too sweet, real crushed pistachios but no pistachio cream. The interior also have claw machines and nice photo op backdrops. The staff are nice and friendly.

    Everybody here was very nice thank you! Everything I ordered was very good and the free strawberry limeade drink was delicious Will definitely be back came from Patterson!

    We walked by on a Sunday late afternoon and it was empty inside. It was extremely clean with cutest little decor. Plenty seating available inside. The service was GREAT!!!! We didn't know it was a buy one get one original free and upon check out she was nice enough to let us know and gave us that discount without even knowing! Super honest and kind. It definitely is pricey for individual pastry average $4.50 for one, it's also veryyyyy messy as the first. It's got the filling everywhere BUT it was super tasty and the service alone will make me go back. Due to the cost, I will likely keep my eye out for more BOGO offers as then it's super worth it!!

    Ube Custard Drink
    Randy V.

    Food ok Service ok Ambiance ok Ok the cream puffs are way over priced and the custard drink was not good. I would not be coming back again.

    An unfortunately disappointing place. I had some decently high hopes, at least for their drinks. But they were absolutely flavorless. Just tasted like unflavored cream. The ambiance is decent enough and I liked their like toy vending machine though. The person working the register was a tad off putting though.

    If you're craving dessert in Tracy, try Beard Papa's cream puffs! I love their cookies and cream filled with matcha or vanilla bean. I would recommend their matcha and cookies and cream puffs! We walked into Beard Papa's and it was not too busy. The man preparing our order was efficient and friendly! He even dropped our order to us when he was finished preparing it. One situation is the parking, but they do have parking behind their building also.

    Strawberry with strawberry cheesecake custard
    Stevi B.

    I was confident I wouldn't be a fan of any time of puff with cream in it (unless it was ice cream of course...) but I was so wrong! I've been in to Beard Papa's a couple of times now and my top to favorites are the Oreo one with the vanilla custard and the strawberry one with the strawberry cheesecake custard! (Pretty sure that one was a Flavor of the Month.) This place will definitely be my go to for a guilty pleasure when it's time for a treat. The puffs are nice and airy and the cold custard is packed with flavor. My only advice... don't eat them in the car. :-D Service is consistently friendly and helpful and the store is kept very clean and presentable.

    We recently were made aware of Beard Papa's and decided to try them out this week. What a gem of an addition to Tracy! We took the short drive from Manteca and found parking just in front of their location. The decor is nice and very colorful. We were promptly greeted and ordered immediately. Don't be fooled, this may be a cream puff place, but they have a variety of options to choose from! A flavor everyone in the family will enjoy! They'll even do catering for large events! I ordered the strawberry cream puff with cream cheese filling and my wife ordered the crème brûlée cream puff. Both of them were absolutely incredible! I also ordered the strawberry lemonade, which was refreshing, I just wish I had more! If you like cream puffs or are looking for a fun dessert place, give Beard Papa's a try, you won't regret it!

    Ube cream puff with vanilla filling
    Gina R.

    This place is so good and another yelper said it reminded them of cream puffs from Hawaii, and I have to agree. The inside is so cute and my child, myself, and my mom loved eating our treats inside. There was no weird smell so that's great, it seems like they were able to address that. The service was nice too and we were about to ask for cups of water and the owner's husband(?) came by our table and brought us some! It was like he was reading our minds! He even brought a mini plain cream puff sample for my little one. The cream puffs are delicious because the filling was cold, thick, and flavorful. They also have many different flavors and combinations on rotation. I'm so glad this store opened in Tracy! I'm looking forward to coming here again soon.

    I cannot say enough good things about Christina and Sweet Arts. She created this absolutely…read morebeautiful cake for my wife's baby shower, and I genuinely could not have been happier with how it turned out. I gave Christina our vision--a soft wildflower and rainbow theme for welcoming our baby girl--and she brought it to life beautifully. The pastel rainbow, flowers, butterflies, soft pink and green details, and the "Welcome Baby Girl" lettering all came together perfectly. It was elegant, sweet, and whimsical without being overdone. It honestly became one of the centerpieces of the entire shower, and we received so many compliments on it. Beyond her talent, Christina was just an incredibly wonderful person to work with. I came to her on a relatively quick turnaround and with a budget I needed to stay within. She listened to me, worked with me, and was extremely accommodating throughout the entire process. There was never any pressure or difficulty--just kindness, cooperation, and a genuine desire to make sure we were happy. What impressed me most was how humble she was. Christina is clearly very talented, but she carries herself with such kindness and sincerity. You can tell she cares about her customers and understands that these cakes are attached to important moments in people's lives. This one certainly was. We are preparing to welcome our baby girl, and this shower meant a great deal to our family. Christina created something that fit that moment perfectly and will now be part of our memories and pictures from that day forever. I sincerely hope Sweet Arts continues to grow and thrive because Christina deserves it. When you find a small business owner who combines genuine talent with this level of kindness, patience, flexibility, and care, you want to see them succeed. If you're in Tracy or the surrounding area and need a cake for a special occasion, give Christina at Sweet Arts an opportunity. I would recommend her without hesitation. Thank you, Christina, for helping make such an important day for our family even more beautiful.

On my first visit, I tried their ensaymadas (oreo and green tea) and a flavor of each of their silvanas (Oreo, Ube, Pistachio, cashew). Again, never had these before and we were excited to try everything. Delicious! the silvanas are perfect tiny snack-size and tried different flavors. On our second visit, I got their 6" sansrival cake (half pistachio/half cashew). It's like a bigger version of the silvanas. On our first visit, they had them in the case and said those are pre-ordered and looked so pretty in the case. Good to know for future visits so I called but they did not answer. I know it's bc they were busy w/customers! so sent them an Instagram DM and were able to accommodate my same-day order request. The staff was friendly and welcoming. A line quickly formed after we arrived, so you know they're good! I look forward to future visits to try other items. I saw they have coffee too and a corn dessert. At the time of this review, they're opened Friday, Sat, Sun only. check out their IG: ellis.creamery I hope they can open daily so I can stop by when I get a craving!

The bread is very fluffy, soft, buttery, and nicely sweet, and the texture is really well done. The only thing that threw me off was the topping. I was expecting some kind of shredded cheese on top--possibly cheddar--to balance out the sweetness, but there wasn't any cheese. It ended up being more of a sugar-and-butter topping on very fluffy bread. Overall, it's still a good ensaymada and a solid value. Just a bit different from what I personally expected, which is why I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5.
