Marbelous cookie $3
Elaine L.

Their Marbelous cookie ($3) always hit the right spot, still so delicious after all these years!!

Marbelous cookie
Mel J.

This review is solely for the cookies! More than 15 years ago, I found the best cookies in Vancouver from Blue Chip Cafe in the old SUB building. My favorite is the Marbelous cookie. Back then the cookie was huge and chunky (and cheap). They are delicious especially when they're still warm. Flash forward to my recent visit to the campus. I was so happy that they still keep Marbelous cookie on their short menu. The cookie menu seems to be slimmed down. Being nostalgic, I ordered 6 of them so I could enjoy it at home too. The cookie seemed to be slightly thinner but the taste was still the same! - Marbelous cookie: very decadent chocolaty cookie but the white chocolate center gave a sweetness to the cookie. The cookie was slightly crispy on the outside but chewy on the inside - Smarties: my kid's fave because it had lots of smarties pieces. The cookie was chewy. It was a bit too sweet for me.

If you want to find one of the best cookies at the UBC campus, this the place to be. A classic favourite is the marbelous cookie. They have different options as well as far as baked goods go. You can find both savory and sweet. Also, they have hot beverages-- which would go well with the cookie you get! If you need a pick-me-up on campus, definitely stop by and check it out. You won't regret it!

Known for their freshly baked cookies, it's also a pretty good all-around cafe, although quality is a mixed bag depending on what you order. The great: most cookies, bagels and bagel sandwiches, date square. The good: muffins and loaves. The just okay: pre-made sandwiches and wraps, dessert bars besides the date square, butter mochi, and tiramisu. Do not recommend: sugar cookies or vegan cookie (but I think the vegan cookie has its fans so that might just be my taste). Aside from the cookies which are baked daily, many of the baked goods have been previously frozen, but they're fine as long as you don't get one that hasn't fully thawed (which has happened to me once). The coffee is more variable but generally pretty good, and I think the matcha latte is actually one of the best on campus (or at least the smoothest). Do not order an iced London fog/turmeric fog though - they tell you they can make it, but you will get a cold tea bag in watery milk, not a properly steeped iced tea latte. The students who work there are usually pretty friendly and the speed of service is reasonable even though the line gets long at lunchtime when school is in session. Like other AMS-owned outlets, you can not only bring your own drink cup but also bring your own food containers and save $.25 per item.

Egg and salsa wrap and coffee
Michelle L.

A really decent place to have breakfast or brunch with friends! Super nice staff and delicious coffee. They have non dairy milk option too!!!! Their cookies are really good. I also tried their egg and salsa wrap which is also delicious! A perfect vegetarian meal!!! I would def try their bagels and other food there!!!

Dessert options

Wow...huge line ups! They have a large variet of sweet offerings. I tried the gluten free quinoa brownie and i thought it was pretty good. The coffee I ordered was meh. Friendly service and super fast.. So don't worry about the line ups!

I LOVED their fresh baked Cookies!!! It was my first time trying the chocolate chip cookies and i really enjoyed it! Crispy and crunchy on the outside, it's not soggy inside and generous amount of chocolate chip! flavor and sweetness is very well balanced! Definitely recommend trying their cookies!

I went on a Saturday night and there was a lot of space inside. Our drinks came out quick and tasted good. Price was also very good, especially for the size of drink that you get! I recommend this restaurant for sure!

Came here with my friend while hanging around UBC. There were 2 bbt places including Coco and Pearl…read moreFever on Yelp and we had some struggles finding Pearl Fever near food court and Subway area. The location was quite difficult to find unless you live around the dorm or studying at UBC. It was at the rear area next to Subway and the direction was quite confusing for us. Anyways, the drinks weren't too exciting to begin with. It was a very slow day when we walked in. Menu was pretty basic. No brown sugar milk tea or fancy stuff like roasted milk tea or Thai milk tea, it's just the cheap powdered stuff mostly. We had UFO with pearls (Icecream coffee float $5.95) and Taro Slush with pearls ($6.10 and 60 cents for pearls) they were okay. My drink was okay, but the pearls didn't taste good. My friend didn't like her Taro Slush it tasted too chalky. She didn't like it. Price was too expensive for drinks. Pearls were extra charge. Service was average. The store was pretty slow and the staff wasn't friendly enough. My pal needed to use washroom, but the area was blocked so people don't use it.

Matcha Strawberry Latte $8.25…read more This drink is super pretty! The drink has fresh puree strawberry, organic milk and whisked matcha! The drink is not too sweet, perfect for anyone who loves matcha and also strawberries! Make sure you mix it well as the sweetness is from the strawberry puree. The pearls were really soft and chewy, which was good! Just a note.. make sure the lid is closed properly as I spilled some in my car

The aesthetic of this cafe is contemporary and very visually clean and cute. I don't know if I can compare their bubble tea to any other bubble tea shop in the city because they use such fresh ingredients mixed with high-quality tea and the end result is absolutely delicious. In just the past week I've had the chance to drink three drinks including today's not too sweet, more subtle chrysanthemum sunrise which has grapefruit chunks. Their Garden Milk Tea was super tasty with rose syrup was gulped up last week but our ABSOLUTE FAVOURITE is the Passion Fruit Vanilla Float. This drink has the perfect mix of that passion fruit punch, with the bubbles of soda from the sparkling water, sweet chunks of aloe vera, and that creamy touch of the vanilla cream. You also get the passion fruit seeds mixed in with pearls (if you order their amazing pearls) and it's seriously the BEST drink. You won't be disappointed. I've had the chance in months pass to try the matcha strawberry with strawberry chunks and it was amazingly delicious too so my top two recommendations are the Matcha Strawberry or the Passion Fruit Vanilla Float! I still need to come by for breakfast but the waffles and macarons I've had here have been delightful.
