    Thai milk tea Bingsu
    Christy S.

    Dear & Fri is a lovely Korean style dessert cafe, the cafe is lovely and decorative. We tried three favour of Bingsu out of almost 20 different Bingsu! I love all of them, the ice based are so nice and they are shaved with favour milk. It tastes more natural and rich layers. There are some toppings insides the ice like the tapioca, pudding or some soybean mochi. It depends of which favour you have ordered. Staffs are nice and make the order very efficient, it is a wonderful place for desserts!

    July 17, 2024 - I haven't been here in so long! It's such a cute little dessert shop. We ordered Mango Bingsu & Injeolmi Bingsu, both were really good. I really liked the red bean on the Injeolmi Bingsu. The service was very good.

    Thai milk tea bingsu was okay but was really difficult to eat - it just wants to fall over onto the plate. Everything else was either extremely sweet or bland

    Scroll down for the TLDR version. Pro tip: Only Cash or Debit Card Accepted Located at midland and finch, this is located at the heart of many boba and food spots. Dear & Fro has cute ambiance and lighting but it's a small place with limited seating so seats can fill up fast. It's more of a eat and go type of place rather than one you linger around in. Service was good and if you dine in they give you a buzzer so you can grab a seat and then present it when your order is ready. I got the the mango bingsu today and I really enjoyed it. The mango was lightly drizzled with some mango syrup and the bingsu itself was creamy. The texture was also amazing as the shaved ice was really refined so it made for a great mouth feel when it melted in your mouth. I've also had other flavours such as their blueberry bingsu in the past and it did not disappoint as well. Overall the bingsu itself is a 10/10 but I only give this place a four as I don't like that the only options for payment are cash and debit nor do they offer ATM machine for clients. I'm also not the biggest fan of their seating arrangement. However if I'm looking for a refreshing and light dessert I would definitely come back to this place. TLDR: Cash and debit only place. Limited seating. Good bingsu and great refined texture for the ice.

    Stopped by after munching across the parking lot at Linh Anh. This place serves dessert very similar to Cups. It was packed when we opened the door. Luckily we were getting takeout. None of us ever really ordered bingsu for takeout but we decided to give it a try for the first time cuz "oh what the hell" right"? They have recently introduced a bunch of new bingsu flavours and I was tempted to try the thai milk team bingsu, but ulitmately decided to get a tried and true mango bingsu (too classic). My friends ordered some as well. We were all pleasantly surprised at the presentation from a takeout perspective. They even added a bag of ice into the takeout bag to keep the bingsu nice and cold! As far as taste goes, it was on point. Does it beat Cups? Maybe half a tier below Cups (because of the absolutely massive portion size at Cups; one order at Cups is definitely serving 2+ ppl). I'm definitely coming back to try the thai milk tea bingsu sometime though. Cute spot, very busy.

    Flaky shaved ice!

    A really cute spot for desserts and refreshments! We dropped by after dinner this holiday season, and it was completely empty (understandably). We had the place to ourselves! After vaccination and ID checks, we were allowed to sit down and order. We got the Matcha Red Bean and Mango Bingsu. The shaved ice came in really adorable bowls, perfectly rounded mounts topped with the shop logo. Amazing for photos! The ice was light and refreshing, the flavor natural and not too sweet. The cut mango was generous and fresh, although I didn't enjoy the mango ice cream as much, as the flavor was somewhat artificial. The portion size was adequate, and little styrofoam bowls were available for sharing. A nice spot for hangout, particular for summer!

    Came here with a friend a few nights ago. Was craving bingsu, specifically injeolmi. I usually go to CUPS, but we were close by to Dear and Fro. Amazing tastes, got the injeolmi of course! lol It came with Red bean paste which elevated the overall taste of the dessert. My friend got the strawberry and it was super refreshing and sweet. Overall impression Distribution of bingsu ingredients: 8/10 they did two laying of condense milk with the soy bean powder and red bean paste/mochi (perfect softness) on top. So the the top is heavy and when you did your spoon towards the bottom there is another layer of condense milk. I'm happy to see that cause some places just pour the ingredients at the top and by the time you hit the bottom you are just eating ice. This is not the case Snow texture: 7/10 a little bit on the ice side... similiar to packing snow after it rains lol. I prefer the light snow texture that CUP serves up. lol just a preference. Would come by for other items on menu. They have vietnamese thai bingsu, earl grey bingsu, milk tea bingsu and other awesome flavours to choose from.

    Aesthetic & cozy place for Korean bingsu! My Korean best friend recommended this place for our hangout. We went around 4PM and it was pretty empty-which was perfect for us since we wanted to catch up & talk & could choose our seats anywhere. The interior is decorated adorably & aesthetically! The most picturesque place imo would be in the back where the plant wall is w/ a neon sign that says treat yo self Between the 3 of us we ordered 2 of their most recommended bingsu's; the early grey & the injeolmi which is like mochi covered in soy bean powder. The texture of the bingsu is my fav!! It's like snow and melts on your tongue. I would say that the injeolmi was a little too frozen vs. the early grey which had the perfect texture. I also preferred the early grey more because of the slightly salted cheese topping which was creamy and worked great with the earl grey. The boba was also super Q which was good Overall I would def come back w/ friends. As we were leaving it started to get more crowded. It's a cozy place so I can see it filling up quickly

    Order: Mango Binsu Price: 10.95 + tax Portion: decent-sized They are taking great precautions due to covid. Only letting one group in the store at a time and making others wait outside. They took down phone numbers to call when the order was ready so definitely efficient. The staff were very kind and gave us ice to keep the bingsu's cool when they heard we were planning on having a picnic. Genuinely caring and helpful staff. My only issue was that the bingsu was too overpriced for the taste. It was quite simple and basic. I've definitely had better. It really just tasted like milk and mangoes. I prefer mine with the cereal bits and they didn't have that. Overall, decent place but comes down to personal preference.

    The two women working here were friendly and worked very quickly and efficiently. The bingsu was delicious! Not too sweet, and the matcha was so flavorful. The location has a good amount of seating and there are a couple good spots for photos, if you like taking food photos!

    strawberry bingsu and mango bingsu
    Tiffany C.

    both the strawberry and mango bingsu were creamy and infused with the flavours of each fruit, which we loved. the fresh fruits that were topped off on each bingsu helped enhance the flavouring of the fluffy shaved ice and sauce more. dear fro is definitely one of our go to bingsu places in the area!

    I was delighted that I was finally visiting after seeing so many great photos online. When entering there's seating along either wall with the seating on the right on a platform with a fake tree to add ambiance. The seating on the left is broken up by a self serve water station and the section at the end is at a hightop table. You order and pay at the counter and take a buzzer back with you. Once it starts buzzing take it back to the counter to collect your order. The armchair type seating at the front of the restaurant could use a cleaning. There's plenty of stains all over the seat covers and I noticed that the tv playing a videos of the offerings was quite dusty. My friend was hankering for sustenance and not just dessert. She got the Korean style army mini hotpot and says that it was good but spicy! The daily bingsu specials are 50% off and Sunday was matcha. It was amazing to share for that price. There was a strong matcha flavour in the ice cream and the shaved ice. It was disappointing though that there wasn't anything layered in the shaved ice. At other restaurants there's sweetened condensed milk and maybe some nuts or red bean. Nonetheless we enjoyed the food and will be back to try other items.

    If you like ice cream and an over the top experience this is the place to visit. I never knew a…read moreplace like this existed in Toronto, although I've always been fascinated by the exterior of this place. This is a frozen dessert emporium! With more ice cream and frozen yogurt flavours than you can imagine. And at least 20 waffle cone and bowl options. Looking at pictures from last year, it appears the waffle cone options change regularly as well. But they don't give you just any ice cream cone. They surprise you with additional toppings! How to feel like a kid again (except my kid who didn't appreciate the extra toppings). When we arrived, there was no line and I thought "why are there three people behind the counter?" From that point on there was a line up out the door. The place itself is a feast for the eyes. There is so much to look at, it's hard to focus on eating. Although ice cream and frozen yogurt are their specialty, they also have Dutch goods, popcorn and a wide variety of drinks. It does feel like a European cafe in the middle of Toronto. Fresh air blowing through the open doors. One interesting thing I learned is that the ice cream is kosher (the frozen yogurt is not?). Someone mentioned it was outlined somewhere on the outside of the building. Also, the only negative feature of this place is the number of bees both inside and outside. As someone terrified of bees, this was a nightmare. Thankfully, there is so much sugar around that they don't focus on anything for any significant length of time. This place is a gem in the city. It does not get enough recognition. You love ice cream? You need to check this place out!

    You have to love this place from the outside. It is colourful, ornate and just kid magnetic…read more Parking is hit and miss with street options only. It's tiny inside. Even with that there are 3 or 4 tables for to enjoy treat and about a dozen Jones and waffle bowl options to choose from. They even carried hard to find speculoos cookies from Holland, a childhood treat, that I 'scooped up' and appreciated. Staff was super friendly and happy to be serving, which was extra nice. A treat and special place for certain, but worth a stop by when your nearby.
