Strawberry matcha latte
KimChi N.

We came bc we saw a video that this place had mango sticky rice with ice cream but we were told It was only sold during their festival In any case we got the mango coconut sticky rice flavor ice cream. When the ice cream hit my tongue, I can taste the mango flavor first and then the coconut flavor hit second . it was so creamy and Delicious ! On the other hand, I was sad about my strawberry matcha. I paid an extra 1.50 for 1 more scoop of matcha bc I don't like a milky matcha drink however the drink itself was rather bland. I think there should be more strawberry puree to aid in the flavor of this drink. Otherwise staff was pretty friendly and parking was paid street parking

Hojicha HK milk tea

Honestly super disappointed that there were no taste samplings. They had a lot of cool flavors that I would have liked to try before making my decision. We needed up going with the safe choice of Hojicha and HK Milk Tea. It was good but nothing crazy. There is plenty of seating and a bathroom.

I heard so many good reviews about Elephant Garden Creamery, so I finally went. It's disappointing they don't offer tasting. I ordered the coconut mango sticky rice, and it was quite a lot sweeter than I expected. Can't really taste the mango from the mango puree, it would be nice if it had some small mango chunks and more acidity. I notice they have pint of durian ice cream for sale, but no single scoop is available. It would have been amazing if they allow tasting, or at least offer durian flavor in single scoop before I spent $18 to buy a whole pint.

Jasmine cloud tea + strawberries (rotational) and matcha honeycomb nugget
Alicia X.

I found out about Elephant Garden Creamery from social media. The place I was staying at just happened to be walking distance giving me the perfect opportunity to try it. I love how unique the flavors are but given the no samples, I just had to get a split cup since I wasn't willing to commit to one flavor. Most of my friends ended up getting one of the mango flavors. I'm not a big mango person so I got the Matcha honeycomb nugget and jasmine tea cloud and strawberries. Between the two, I enjoyed the matcha one more. I was pleasantly surprised by the honeycomb chunks. The jasmine tea cloud and strawberries just didn't particularly stand out to me. It wasn't bad but I would rather try a new flavor than get it again. There was a pretty long line when I got there. It does go relatively quickly. The no samples rule makes a lot sense given their line.

Came for Noms Mag limited ice cream fest mango sticky rice flavours, got the float and I hit a new high. Rave all you want about the classic mango sticky rice, but if you love coconut milk sweet sauce and mochi bites as much as I, the float? yea, that's your guy. [Ok update 07/30: it felt a bit lackluster the second visit. I'm missing the mochi bits in the drink. Also tried the classic sticky rice this time. The toasted mung beans (?) were a bit strange for texture since- it did not feel enjoyable biting into.. It's good but for the price, maybe getting the ice cream pint is a better angle. They can keep the 4* but I'd love to see some consistency. ] Visited again for milk tea and it tasted exactly like the bottled Kirin Milk Tea you can get at stores. BAR FOR BAR. Not sure if that's their secret but if it is, good on them - it's def yummy. I do enjoy a richer HK milk tea so it'd be super cool to see if it's reworked to be even richer hehe.

I would order the mango coconut sticky rice every single time. Not kidding! Definitely recommend that flavor and the sencha cloud tea.

Remains my favorite spot for an ice-cream flight. Best Asian flavors. The mango coconut sticky rice still reigns supreme.

With summer heat coming down on us, we decided to get some cold sweet treats at Elephant garden creamery. They had a variety of options with special flavors only made for each season. Reason why I'm giving them one less star is because they did not allow sampling so we could not try any of them before deciding the ones we wanted to get. We settled on 3 flavors: - Chocolate: The ice cream was creamy and rich with the right amount of sweetness. We got this in a waffle cone and the chocolate paired with the crunchy cone was a good match! - Match Honeycomb: The match flavor was a little delicate and undermined by the sweetness of the honey comb and the ice cream itself. Overall this was a good flavor combination although more match would have made it better - We also ordered a cookies and cream pint to enjoy later. This one was by far the best flavor we had tried so far. The ice-cream itself was blue with bits of cookies stuffed inside. The sweetness was balanced by the chocolate of the cookies and this combination made us yearn for more! I would recommend stopping by Elephant Garden Creamery this summer and try some of their seasonal flavors but I really hope they start allowing customers to sample their flavors!

After weeks of waiting I finally got to try the Butter Sweet Corn Crunch. It tasted more like corn flakes and it was unfortunately soggy. But it came with a light sweetness which was appreciated

Matcha honeycomb nugget & mango sticky rice + taro
Samantha W.

First trip back to Vancouver since moving out of country - I had been thinking of this place and the quality deliciousness that is their mango sticky rice ice cream periodically over the last 5 years. There is a place in San Diego that has sticky rice ice cream, and as soon as I tried it I said no..Elephant garden was way better. So coming back after so many years, I'm so glad it did not disappoint. It tastes just as I remember it. Absolutely excellent. The pandan comes through soooooo nicely. My husband also got a scoop of taro which was real delicious taro. Also, the matcha honeycomb nugget - omfg... absolutely ridiculous. SO good. I love sponge toffee and I didn't realize that's what would be the honeycomb nugget. This was a total match made in heaven for me. I love matcha. I looooove sponge toffee. It was so smooth, perfect amount of matcha in my opinion, not bitter but not overly sweet. This was the most favorite scoop of matcha ice cream I've ever had so far in life. Whoever is developing the recipes here has an incredibly good palette and knows exactly what they're doing. Flavors & texture are so on point, not sickly sweet. The quality is fantastic and I am so glad it hasn't changed. I could not recommend more highly.

So many Asian inspired flavours! Came by at around 9pm and it was very busy but the line moved quickly. I like the ambiance of the place - it's very modern. I got the Thai iced tea flavour per the staff's recommendation and I enjoyed it. I tried my friend's mango sticky rice and it was really good. I'd be keen to come back to try their drink menu.

Lovely experience after finally getting here not knowing EGC is closed on Tuesdays! Was in a workshop with someone who said she went to EGC and I immediately said, "Oh! Did you have the mango coconut sticky rice?!" And we both gushed about it.

Anita Z.

I got the mango sticky rice latte and I thought it was made very well. It was not too sweet and it was refreshing. Since it was on the thicker side (there was a sticky rice slurry on the bottom and mango pieces), it was almost like a dessert rather than a drink. I'd definitely get this again!

Best ice cream in town. Great flavors and the decor is very inviting. Coffee and boba is good too, but go there for the ice cream

Usually for last few years I've been ordering from Esther at Dipnsip & Unni Pastries. I was…read morereferred at my friend's wedding as I was looking for cakes and pastries for in-laws. Well it seems ownership has changed and the new owner doesn't give two craps about prior customers, honoring discounts, replying back timely or being more friendly? Was playing email tag and finally submitted the 39 flavors and didn't hear back until after another week and then told they won't deliver only in morning when they know our reservation was for 730pm and they're open until 9? I even replied back and nothing. We own and run several business in lower mainland and in United States and this customer service from Unni Pastries is trash. At least you can do is reply back and apologize? For wasting time when I specifically told you it's for family and friends flying into town for a funeral burial. Will never use their business again. I highly suggest Mello. They replied and helped me out last minute. Shame on you! Learn how to run a business and treat customers esp previous customers who were supporting the business and fellow Krn but it's clear the new owner doesn't care about the customer or quality it's all about quantity. Maybe my 39 donuts which I offered to pay extra for time and packaging wasn't large enough but money is money. Especially during this time and economy. You should've at least replied back and even tried asking us to do pickup as the restaurant is down the road. Do better! Go to Mello which isn't too far and they bake fresh daily better pricing and reviews and consistency!

A very nostalgic old Hong Kong decor dessert spot offering many authentic Hong Kong style desserts…read more Their expansive menu includes traditional hot dessert such as red bean soup, black sesame and almond paste. And also the more modern cold desserts such as mango, ube sago and even grass jellies. We opt to order their ube trio and it was heavenly. It had an authentic and strong ube taste. The sagos were cooked just right with the perfect texture and most importantly, it wasn't too sweet. We also ordered their instagram worthy mahjong tiles which is essentially red bean and coconut pudding. It's very cute and definitely instagram worthy. It's not too sweet and I liked that it came with a side of red bean sauce which made it less dry. The money is also made of edible paper but we didn't touch it cuz it felt weird eating it. However, it wasn't anything special and we wouldn't order it again. It was quite busy when we arrived on a Friday night but it's much easier to go in a smaller party. We were a party of 2 and walked right in even though others were waiting because they needed a bigger table. The place is clean and service was fast. They don't have a time limit even though they are busy so it's a great hang out spot. We would definitely be back to try out other items they have to offer.

It's a nice place for Asian dessert. They also have some Hong Kong style snacks and Asian dim sum I…read morehave yet to try. I like getting their tofu dessert though. And right now (not sure until when) they have a giant sandpit installed in the middle of their store. If you spend $25, you get to play with their toy excavator. And if you collect over 30g of gems, you can spin the wheel and win prizes. (Big prize = $20 coupon) Great for keeping kids and adults that are still kids at heart (myself included), happily occupied.

Waaah I loved this place! Vancouver, how lucky you are to have Konbiniya!…read more Walking into this place felt a little bit like being transported into Japan. I'm from the Bay Area and we have our fair share of Japanese grocery stores (shout out to Niiya in Japantown in San Francisco) but I was very excited to see the selection here. Definitely came across items I've never seen before like a Takoyaki flavored Ramune. It was extremely discounted just fyi probably for good reason. They even had Japanese canned drinks stored hot like in Japan! The take away Japanese desserts also looked good. This place is right on Robson street so a great place to grab a snack, drink, pick me up while shopping. Prices seemed reasonable. One caveat is that it can get busy in here and the aisles are small so it felt a little crowded but that's sort of like Japan as well lol so not a big deal for me. Added to the ambience. Checkout was quick and easy!

Extensive selection of all manner of…read morecandies, onigiri (rice and seasonings wrapped in crisp seaweed), matcha-flavoured snacks, soy sauces, numerous styles of miso paste...you get the idea. It sounds crowded - and it is - but once you push your way to the back of the store, you'll find a tiny Japan tour travel agency and a shelf of clearance items at rock-bottom prices. Service is cheerful, personable and brisk. The store also houses a takeaway crepe and ice cream shop - the crepes are actually better than the ones I've had in Tokyo.
