This cafe is very unique. I visited from Michigan one weekend with my daughters and a granddaughter. They recommended to have Killaloe Sunrise. Beaver Tails are very similar to Elephant Ear to US baking good. They have many varieties and all unique - sweet and savory. Killaloe Sunrise toppings are sugar and cinnamon but a key is Lemmon!! You squeeze the lemon juice to the top of Beaver Tail ! It is delicious!! Cute and clean warming interior welcomes in customers. You can have hot coco, ice cream and Beaver Tail goods as well. If you visit first time, you can ring the bell very cute!
I heard that this was a must have when traveling to Toronto. BeaverTails did not disappoint. I went straight for the BeaverTails, although they do offer other delicious options. We ordered the Bananarama and Coco Vanil. They are both awesome, although if I could only choose one, I'd go with Bananarama. It was amazing. I'll be coming back for more in the days to come. The service was fantastic. The individual that helped me was very nice. She had several recommendations. There is a nice patio to enjoy your treat, along with the views. Like I mentioned before, I'm definitely coming back for more. I highly recommend you visit BeaverTails when in Toronto. You will not be disappointed.
I'm so glad I FINALLY got to try Beaver Tails when I came up to Toronto. I remember seeing it from an old Cartoon Network show (Anyone else remember "Stoked") and I knew I just had to try it when I finally got up here. I got the Avalanche (Skor,Cheesecake, and Caramel) and I loved that they stretched the dough when we ordered and then start frying it right there. It really ensures that we get freshly fried Beaver Tails at the peak of their deliciousness. After I got mine slathered with the toppings I ordered, I dug in and as expected, it's really hot but SOOOOO good. It's like the concept of a donut only thinner and crispier, thus resulting in a much better texture and crunch throughout which I very much prefer over a donut actually. The cheesecake spread mingling with the sweet caramel, crunchy toffee bits, and crispy hot dough is just such a perfect combination. It's a bit of a mess to eat but sooooo worth it. It really is such a shame that there isn't an establishment like this in NYC because it could seriously do some REALLY good numbers over here I reckon. I HAVE to get this again when I come back up to Canada (unless ya'll want to build a place down across the border haha).
Absolutely fantastic, delicious every time I have a beavertail. Service was great, ambiance is casual, line was long -- but service fast!
I don't have much to compare by as far as Toronto dogs and poutine but this was a good and fast stop. Enjoyed our hotdog in a cool wrapped bun and fries were tasty. I'd you're at the convention center and want a quick break then why not?
The food was an absolute delight, rich in flavor and the perfect dessert. Would recommend having it in the evening as the sugar crash is definitely real. I had the maple beaver tail with vanilla ice cream, which I highly recommend, however there are a plethora of options and combos you can do. The service and ambiance were also great!
BeaverTails was on my Canada itinerary before I even landed. Ordered the Killaloe Sunrise on the cashier's recommendation and walked away a little underwhelmed. It was fine, but it tasted like a grown up, overpriced version of the Cinnamon Crispas I used to get at Taco Bell as a kid in the 80s. Nostalgia is nice, but not at that price point. The saving grace was the view from my table overlooking Lake Ontario, which was genuinely beautiful. Maybe that's what I was really paying for. Either way, I checked the box.
The avalanche beavertail (marshmallow fluff, skor, chocolate) hit the spot. The poutine was fairly average leaning on the saltier side. A cool location to sit and enjoy a snack! We could see the water taxis coming and going frequently.
Apart from the glorious poutine, this was the other Canadian food to try according to my quick non-scientific research. The smells walking into the place were intoxicating and had me salivating. Groups of families and tourists made up most of the guests. I ordered the MehPle, and my friend went with the BrWownie. The wait was about 10 minutes. The cabin-like interior and its open air design helped us cool down with the ocean breeze coming in. The MehPle was incredibly crispy, sweet, and gooey, a hot and oily pastry, and a familiar kind of snack like those found at a county fair. My friend said the BrWownie was also very good with crumbs stuck on her cheeks. All in all, worth a taste. Before we left, I rang a singular sound off their bell.
My goodness these beaver tails were out of sight!! The plain cinnamon and sugar beaver tail was my favorite. If you're near... be sure to grab one. You won't be disappointed!
We knew we needed to try a beaver tail while visiting Toronto and were happy to find this location right on the waterfront and without a long line. Three of us shared two which was perfect for a snack. We had the Hazel Amour and Strawberry Cheesecake both of which were delicious! For those like us who haven't had these before, they are like a big flat donut that is a little crispy. It is not, as I had thought, like the US Midwestern elephant ear. At the risk of betraying my region, beaver tails are better! Seating at this location is outside on the waterfront which is lovely.
Great food and great views. We stopped here a few times during our stay in town because it was very close to the Airbnb
Tried the maple flavored BeaverTail in Toronto. The pastry was warm and fresh, but it had way too much topping, making it overly sweet. The flavor reminded me of a flatbread churro. The spot feels super touristy, and it would be nice if they offered a vegan-friendly option so more people could enjoy it.
I was a little unsure at first because the name "BeaverTails" was a bit off-putting, but I didn't let that stop me! When visiting a new country, trying new foods is part of the adventure. The service was very kind, and the staff offered several suggestions. The shop was small, but the patio overlooking the harbor was definitely a plus! I tried the apple BeaverTail, and it was delicious! Imagine a flattened churro topped with sweet, tasty toppings. It was flaky, flavorful, and such a fun treat to try. It was like apple pie with a churro crust. I really enjoyed the experience and am glad I stepped outside my comfort zone. Definitely worth trying when visiting! read more
Found myself in Toronto and heard you have to try a Beavertail when in Canada. Glad we did. Rang the bell for my beavertail treat Like a fresh warm churro. add the honey pistachio topping was even better. But Get napkin as it was sticky and good ! read more

Ordering a beaver tail was super quick and easy. With this location being near the water, grabbing one and munching on it by the harbor was super nice. The classic was thin and crispy. Some parts were too thin that it was like a crispy chip. I thought it would be more like a soft pretzel texture... It's an in-between texture between crispiness and medium, thick dough. I guess I expected more out of this for some reason hearing the hubs mention it so much. But then again it's just cinnamon and sugar. It's a gigantic cinnamon twist but in the shape of a beaver's tail. It's still a pretty tasty snack unique to Canada. Give it a try if you haven't had it before. read more
Such an iconic place conveniently located near the harborfront. It's obviously a must try when visiting Toronto but the taste was fairly unimpressive. For a fried treat, I was expecting the dough to be much crispier but it ended up being a bit limp. We got the Bananarama flavor (banana with hazelnut spread) and found it a bit too sweet. If you have Asian taste buds like us, would definitely recommend getting the Classic for a slightly less sweet option. read more
I don't care if BeaverTails is a tourist spot because I love the Killaloe Sunrise and get it every time I'm in Canada and nearby a BeaverTails store. Killaloe Sunrise is a fried flat dough pastry dusted with cinnamon sugar and a lemon wedge for you to squeeze the juice onto the treat. Essentially it's a big, flat churro. The lemon juice sounds weird, but trust me it works and that's how I eat my churros now. Highly recommended. read more
BeaverTails is a Canadian pastry shop in Toronto (that also serves poutine). This location is right by the waterfront with great views. Their pies remind me of the funnel cake/ elephant ear fried dough with delicious toppings like apple pie! It is messy ! I was not a big fan of the lemonade slushy, but would definitely recommend you try the pastries. Staff was incredibly friendly and the food came out quickly and was fresh. #canada #pastry #sweets read more

Service was fast and friendly. Went for some poutine before the Leafs game on a chilly afternoon. The inside was small but charming and it was out of the wind. The poutine was tasty and the cheese melted with the hot gravy. I got full and warm. My previous experience with poutine was in the US and it was so salty I could feel my fingers swelling up. The poutine at BeaverTails was not a sodium filler at all. I'll be back for the pastries, they looked amazing! read more
BeaverTails, a staple food you have to try when you're in Canada. The bread they use as a base is actually a native Indian fry bread, then they add all kinds of diabetes on top haha. This is the part where it gets fun because it can fast as sweet or simple as you want it to be. They have loads of flavors to choose from. You can even add a variety of Ice cream flavors to them! We have tried the bananarama with and without Ice cream, as well as the avalanche and the triple trip. I happen to love peanut butter so my favorite was the Tripple trip, and my fiancés was the bananarama. He enjoyed his bananarama more with ice cream but he said it's a huge sugar rush so he won't get it with ice cream every single time because it can be a bit too much haha. We both love this place and will return when we come back to Canada read more

This morning I attended a Holiday Cheer Event at Beavertails; I was at this location's Grand Opening day in March 2016 when they offered free boat tours of the Inner Harbour (see 2nd pic. below). For the Event there was a choice between 2 comp. Beavertails (The Classic, Hazel Amour) as well as hot chocolate - also comp. - on offer. I chose the latter Beavertail choice and was very pleased; it was warm and fairly crunchy with great flavour. The venue is fairly small with limited seating: one table at the front and a few more in the back; their 2nd floor is not available to Customers. Service was very prompt and friendly and the venue appeared immaculately clean throughout. I thank Beavertails for the generous opportunity to partake in their products during the Holidays. read more

Came to try their flight of 6 mini beavertails but was informed that the dough was being prepped and it would take 45 mins. However, she also let us know we can do half-half flavour on 1 beavertail and that is exactly what we did (she also said it would be cheaper than the flight but i guess it depends which flavours you get). We chose half pistachio and half mud pie flavour (a limited time summer special i think). It's been so long since I've had a beavertail and i love how light and airy the dough is. I love pistachio anything but this pistachio flavour was a bit too subtle in my opinion. The mud pie was perfectly sweet with whipped cream and oreo bits. read more

Stopped by the food truck outside the aquarium to try this treat since I heard it was a must in Toronto and it was a good pick me up! It was a good stop along the way. We got the original beaver tail and it was very yummy and the service was quick! Always fun to have a sweet treat at the end of the day. read more
I was walking towards Eaton Center on 06 November 2022 and noticed a few different events happening at Dundas Square. My curiosity took ahold of me and I crossed the street, only to find a few different activities promoting Canada's involvement in the upcoming FIFA World Cup (2022). Amongst the different activities, there was a BeaverTails pop-up shop, which was giving away FREE beavertails -- however many you wanted. Feeling slightly peckish, I ended up getting their banana chocolate beavertail as it was a flavour I hadn't tried before. The dough was nicely fried, having the crispy but chewy texture to it, and the bananas seemed quite fresh. As you may note from the picture, given that they were giving away free beavertails, it was a slightly smaller size than the regular beavertails. I didn't mind this at all, though! read more

first time in toronto and had to try a beaver tail!!! the service and ambiance here was amazing! even though, we came on a busy day, the staff was so nice! i wish there was more seating inside tho since there was only three tables inside so we had to wait a little before sitting. but the wait was worth it bc the view was the beautiful pier outside i got the bananarama - chocolate hazelnut spread with banana - it was delicious with some hot chocolate! the bread was nice and crispy which paired well with the sweet chocolate spread. honestly can't go wrong with the bananarama (unless you don't like banana lol) a perfect cozy lunch after walking around in the windy cold in downtown toronto. i saw that they had a lemonade float and a savory beaver tail with poutine!! maybe our next order next time we visit hehe read more

I tried the Mehple (maple) beaver tail and it was delicious! This location has outdoor seating, although since it was raining, I could not sit there since it had no roof. They accept credit cards. read more
