This is a bright, sunny place that focuses on kiosk ordering and offers fluffy pancakes and chicken karaage. We didn't try the fluffy pancakes, but the chicken karaage was okay. It's offered in a variety of flavors, but we kind of wanted the classic style because we like a nice crunchy crust rather than it getting soggy from being over-sauced. However, even the classic style was not actually crusty the way traditional chicken karahi is. It was more of a steamed sort of a coating, kind of like Kentucky Fried Chicken's original recipe. Not bad, but not exactly what I was looking for.

Kind of a weird experience. We walked in and while taking our orders, the guy told us we had one minute to order as they were closing and could only eat it in the restaurant if we could eat in 10 minutes. With that info, we decided to take it to go. I think it likely would've tasted better and been more aesthetically pleasing for sure if we had ordered it to be eaten at the restaurant, but I ordered the tiramisu and it tasted nothing like tiramisu. Also tried the strawberry and it was really underwhelming. While we were waiting for the food, people kept coming in because the door was open and we kept having to tell them they were closed. The hours are listed wrong online and they could have just closed the door to prevent more people from coming in

My daughter wanted to try out this place so we headed over there at 11:40. They opened at 11. After we had waited for 2 others to order at the kiosk and at the counter with the worker (probably 10 minutes) the worker told us that they were OUT of ingredients and that we couldn't eat there and we basically had to leave. How do you run out of ingredients 40 minutes after you open?!?!?

Fluffy fluffy

They have daily specials now. They are also offering much more food and drinks than a year ago. The wait for these fluffy treats definitely are in the 15-30 minutes range as they are made fresh. Adequate amount of tables and chairs. Silverware and other items are on a counter to grab and use. I got the Monday special (tiramisu pancake and drink) for $17.99 CAD (what a deal for me at less than $13 USD)!

Waited over 1 hour for two fuwa fuwa pancakes!!! $40 CAD! I'm guessing they screwed up with some mix up and gave our pancake to some other guest... They looked busy and under staffed!! They did wind up giving us free croissants and i believe i will be refunded for the long 1 hour fuwa fuwa wait. Cramped limited seating some random 70's Japanese pop music in the background. I will not return and although pancakes were fantastic!! I feel bad leaving this review but i tell it like it is.. My suggestion: Hire younger cute staff and play up to date music and maybe show videos with TV on the wall. Come on guys its fuwa fuwa!!!

Matcha soufle
Lulu L.

If you're looking for a soft, not-too-sweet dessert café, Fuwa Fuwa really shines. What we ordered: * Matcha Soufflé Pancake - The star of the table. Soft, airy, and cloud-like with a creamy texture. The matcha flavour is gentle and balanced--not bitter, not overly sweet. Light, comforting, and easy to finish. * Banana Chocolate Croissant - Flaky and indulgent, but a little heavy on the cream for our taste. The flavours were good, just slightly overpowering. * Iced Lattes - Smooth and refreshing, a good pairing with the desserts. Overall thoughts: This is an excellent spot if you love Japanese-style desserts that aren't overly sweet. The soufflé pancake alone is worth coming back for--soft, creamy, and thoughtfully balanced. Great for: dessert dates, café hopping, and matcha lovers Standout: Matcha soufflé Vibe: cozy, calm, dessert-focused Will definitely come back to try their other menu.

Fuwa Fuwa is a bit inconsistant. I like the fluffy pancakes but the topping are sometimes bland. The signature fluffy pancakes is a good option. I also like the savoury version, jalapenos maple chicken pancakes. Their matcha lattes are not good, it's not mixed well enough so you feel the matcha powder as you drink. Better order the ice tea.

I spent my Boxing Day solo brunch at Fuwa Fuwa on Robson, and these "fluffy fluffy" soufflé pancakes were exactly what I needed to brighten a winter day. They whip the egg whites to perfection and cook them at a low temperature, leaving them incredibly soft, bouncy, and light. What I ordered: Classic Tiramisu Pancakes: Delicious and authentic texture. Hot Matcha Latte: A steal at only $3.99 (promo ends Jan 9, 2026!). Current Promos (as of Dec 2025): Spend $20+ and get a complimentary slice of cheesecake (or a discount if you prefer). They are also giving out three coupons valid through Jan 31, 2026! The Experience: The aesthetic is lovely--bright and soft with yellow, cream, and white tones. I arrived at 11:40 AM and managed to snag a table just before a rush of 15 people walked in. There were only two staff members working (one taking orders, one making pancakes). I felt so bad for them as they were absolutely slammed! Since I didn't have plans, I didn't mind the wait, but do note that my latte arrived just as I was finishing my pancakes. Overall, the food is worth it if you have the time!

Tiramisu pancake

Yummy!!!!! That's all I need to say about this adorable soufflé pancake dessert bar. They have a good amount of tables inside and a nice restroom. Service is helpful and friendly. Yes they have some savory dishes on their brunch menu but there really is only one reason to come here- the delicious soufflé pancakes. Be prepared to wait about 20 minutes for your order but it is well worth it. We got the savory sausage sandwich and the raspberry caramelized banana pancake. The sandwich was fine but omg, the pancake was so fluffy and not overly sweet. The volume next to us ordered the burnt cheese cake, the tiramisu pancake and the crème brûlée pancake. They way overrides but they loved it all so much that they every last crumb!! This place is fabulous!!!!

It seems soufflé pancake is a hot trend. Many places in Vancouver area offer this menu. I like the pancake here. If you like it, you should come here and try. Located on the main food street in downtown Vancouver. Lots of many other good food spots, I like, around here. One stop shopping! Lots of table and seats. Clean.

I came here for their February special: tiramisu soufflé pancakes + ceremonial matcha latte for $17.50. Service was friendly...I placed my order with the cashier and one of the girls brought my drink and pancakes to my table. It was a bit of a wait for the pancakes, but I didn't mind because they make the pancakes fresh to order. I loved the how fluffy and jiggly the pancakes were. The cafe is cozy with plenty of seating.

My family and I went to this spot not long after they opened. Come for the souffle pancakes of your dreams- so fluffy and soft with nice mellow flavors. Stay/cone back for the fancy drinks and great service. Come when you have time as the pancakes take a while to cook and are made to order. One of our orders broke apart while cooking so it took a little longer than the rest of our food to come out while they remade it. We didn't mind but they were super apologetic and went above and beyond making us other menu items to try. The souffle pancake french toast were great. Great fresh fruit with everything as well. Super cute cafe. Will definitely be back when next in Vancouver.

One of the best soufflé pancakes I have had even for considering those in Asia. Vancouver is fortunate to have this place!

I visited some the famous dessert shops (Laudree, Dalloyau, Lady M, Café 103 at IFC and others)…read morewhen I went to Hong Kong. After I came back, I thought time to make my own dessert. I found J'Adore Les Macarons on Yelp that they offer macron class, let's do it! The instructor Connie is friendly and knowledgeable. My friend and I arrived 10 mins early before the class, the notes and some ingredients were prepared and placed on countertop. Yes, we made macarons at her kitchen. The first thing I learnt from Connie was how to pronounce Macaron. (Mac-a-ron). Macaron is referring to the French Macaron. If pronounce it macaroon, it is the coconut kind. We started with a cup of tea and tasted beautiful macarons during the class. Our group decided to make Lavender macarons with buttercream and chocolate ganache which made of 66% Valhrona dark chocolate. Connie taught us her secrets and techniques to make Parisian macarons. During the class, she vigilant in checking and measuring the ingredients. After 4 hours long class, I really enjoyed and learnt a lot. I took 18 macarons home and shared with my friend and hubby. I would recommend any macaron lover to take the class or buy the macarons from Connie

I heard about this from a friend who wanted to take a macaron baking class. My experience has been…read morelimited to eating these delightful treats. I am relatively new to them as just being introduced to them this year! Although I am a macaron noob, I've looked online and read recipes and know enough about them to truly appreciate the precision that goes into its creation. So I went to their website and signed up for a class on Victoria day. I went on my own as my friend was unavailable. Connie, the instructor emailed me promptly to let me know as soon as there are 4 people in the class, it will be good to go. The class is held at Connie's house which I liked as it was warm and comfortable and made me feel at ease. I'm just a self-taught baker making assorted cookies and cupcakes at home and have never taken a class before so I didn't know what to really expect. The intimate setting of having 4 students was awesome. She had tea for us to drink, fun aprons to wear and 2 sample macarons to taste as we learned the secrets of baking macarons. It's great for people who have tried making macarons and need to tweak something to make consistent perfect macarons. You can tell Connie is just obsessed with macarons. I love it! She has done the work, spent time learning the skill and art of them and loves sharing that information through her classes. I think she said she has been making macarons weekly for the past year and a half! That's a LOT of macarons. If you love macarons and love to bake, Connie's class is a MUST. I had so much fun, and she is so pleasant. She even welcomes emails if you have a macaron crisis at home and have questions in the future. The price is fair. $100 for instruction PLUS you get to take 20 macarons home! It was definitely worth it. The whole experience makes me dreamy for Paris and macarons. Thank-you again Connie for generously sharing your expertise!

Crunchy and the inside is flavourful. - cheese tart - I think this is my favourite. Really smooth and wonderful cheese, the crust is solid and crunchy but not too much. Just really wonderful. Would definitely come back.

I believe they were one of the first places in Vancouver to really bring these fruit-shaped desserts to the forefront, and then slowly everyone else started following the trend. The mango is definitely my favourite. It's light, fruity and refreshing and the white chocolate shell gives you that little crack when you bite into it. I tried the clementine/orange one as well and I would probably skip that one next time. It's mostly cream with not a ton of cake. The good news is that the mousse is pretty light, so even though there's a lot of it, it doesn't feel like an incredibly heavy dessert. The pastries and desserts are definitely more about the experience and presentation, although there are some really good options beyond the fruit ones too.

I tried their croissant when they were first opening and loved their black sesame croissant. Perfectly flaky and very deep in black sesame flavours. On a different occasion, had the opportunity to get a cake from them. It was a seamless process to place an order for their cakes online and pick up the order. I ended up getting the Vietnamese Coffee Tiramisu cake since I thought the birthday recipient would prefer that one the most. When it came time to cut the cake, it was a complete mess as the sponge was way too soaked mixed with the cream, the top layers of the cake were shifting while the cookie crust stayed put since it was too firm to cut through. It was a sticky, wet cake situation that was a bit unpleasant for a birthday that some people even said they'd skip the cake because of the mush appeal... this would've been great as a spoon the cake out of a bowl type of tiramisu situation however, for the price and size of the cake, you'd expect a cake to cut properly if it is sold as 'x' servings....

It is more like a twisted churro creation but really good. I feel a place like this is the best of marrying western baking and Chinese themes. It is the kind of innovation I often saw in Hong Kong. In fact I think this place was founded by a HK based engineer who came over.
