We really enjoyed the high quality and awesome flavor profiles while visiting the area. Service was very nice and attentive. Wish I could try all of the eclectic and exotic flavors. They had me at pistachio, which was nice with the coffee flavor. My son loves the strawberry and coconut scoops also. Relaxing vibes add to the summer chill inside.
A great spot for desserts with a unique twist. I'd especially recommend it if you love Dubai chocolate, pistachios, and ice cream--there are some really indulgent options here. The service is good, and the space itself is new, bright, and spacious, which makes it a pleasant place to sit and enjoy your treats. I'd definitely recommend checking it out and will be back again.
Super interesting flavors. The lemon was really tart and the rest of the flavors were tasty without being overly sweet Banana split lets you taste 3 flavors without the difficulty of choosing
A wonderful restaurant by Robson and Homer, with some great desserts and drink options. They also have great brunch options. Recently tried the Sunny Side-Up Waffle with just the right amount of maple syrup and well cooked eggs. The service is friendly and has a peaceful atmosphere which allows one to think or have a good conversation.
WHEN: Fri @8:30pm Walked by this shop a few times this week during a conference and my cousin had the great idea of checking it out for dessert! The sandwich board of photos outside really drew us in, which is why we ordered: THE EXOTIC - $12.49 CAD (Reg) +$1.99 for Clotted Cream. Creamy avocado base, fresh fruits chunks and strawberry juice on top with crunchy nuts and honey. This was interesting! I'm used to having the puréed avocado already sweet but this wasn't but everything else around it was--which is fine. This dessert is refreshing. SMALL ICE-CREAM - $6.49 CAD This size actually allows up to 3 flavors! So I chose: + Chocolate + Pistachio + Ashta - Middle Eastarn Ice-Cream dipped in pistachio All 3 flavors came together so perfectly and it was so good! I never had Lebanese ice cream before and I enjoyed it so much! There's seating both inside and outside on a parklet which was where we sat. No complaints!
A friend of mine recommended that we come here to try the ashta. Yum yum yum! Their ashta icecream was so good. I was a little surprised that they didn't add any pistachios to the ashta icecream (to really get it right the Lebanese way...or at least have the option!). Nonetheless the icecream tasted very good, and my 2-year old devoured it. I had the traditional lebanese cocktail! Loveddd it! I would just maybe add a drizzle of honey on the top. It was delicious and of course super filling. My mom tried the mango cocktail and it was also good but we both preferred the traditional cocktail. Very cute little place in downtown. I love the cakes in the fridge - creative flavors coming together. Super cute ambiance. Service was okay.
Went late night for the ice cream cake slice which was just ok. Wasn't a fan of the ice texture or the flavors (they felt a bit artificial). We later had breakfast and tried out their 2 crepes: labneh and halloumi. Both were tasty. Waitress was nice and the place always seemed quiet and relaxing inside.
They say "the taste of home" -- and heck yeah, it truly is! One bite of the Ashta ice cream and I was instantly transported back home. Every creamy spin was pure joy. My husband went for the Kunafah flavor and said it actually tasted like real kunafah -- not the fake stuff. The shop is a decent size and the staff were incredibly sweet and welcoming. The only downside? It was way too hot inside while we were ordering. Not sure if the AC was down or just taking the day off, but it made the experience a bit uncomfortable. Still, the flavors made it worth it. Until next time!
It's so difficult to find booza in NA, but I'm glad I found it! Each flavor was so unique and flavorful without being too sweet. Ashta was my favorite flavor. There's plenty of seating. It's definitely worth a drive to Vancouver for!
We found this little shop as we were exploring Vancouver. When we first came in, it looked a little busy but the staff was welcoming and explained the menu to us. They have little cafe tables inside and out and it's a great place to enjoy your food and drinks. We ordered the KitKat Delight Crepe with lemon ice cream. We also got the AvoBerry cup. Sorry we forgot to take photos of the food. But they looked great and were really yummy. I highly recommend this place and the girl that helped us was so hard working and a delight to talk to.
Tasty ice cream for $6.49! You can choose up to three flavor for the ice cream. Friendly staffs as well
Lebanese based place for breakfast. Found a nice cozy corner inside. This was our order - Cheesy Chicken Crepe Sunny Side-Up Waffle Mango Madness No regrets on any of our orders. They have other stuff like cakes and parfaits but we couldn't try those out. Staff were friendly and this place can be added to your checklist if you haven't already.
This cute dessert and brunch spot was AMAZiNG!! We were helped right away.They have such unique Lebanese flavors for ice cream such as astha or kenefe. My fav was the astha which had crunchy pistachios in it!! I would definitely come again!!!!!
Really good crepes and ice cream! I ordered a Nutella pistachio crepe with a scoop of pistachio ice cream. Not the BEST crepe I've ever had but very good. If it were a bit thinner and a bit more buttery - would be perfect. Pistachio cream filling was yummy. Pistachio ice cream pretty good too. Service was good, they were really nice. Just prepare to wait cause crepes do take a while to make. read more

Le parfait is one of my favorite dessert shop. They offer very unique middle eastern themed dessert. While I visited Italian day on drive, I found their vendor and tried their pistachio ice cream. I couldn't believe how large the ice cream portion was! Almost 2 scoop?? for 1 scoop price. Staff scooped once and added pistachio topping and scooped again and added another pistachio topping! Ice cream texture was so silky and slightly gooey texture , I feel very unique. I always like this ice cream. And so many pistachio topping! I really love their ice cream and service. I will visit downtown shop again. read more

This is an extremely disappointing visit. I do not enjoy sorbet - the flavour board did not indicate what flavors are dairy based ice cream and what are sorbets and honestly I did not expect any flavors are. When I ordered the rose water and miske and both are sorbets! They are overly sweet and really off putting. Out of all the flavours including their signature pistachios are not tasting the real flavor of the ingredients. Chocolate is the only one we enjoy. Don't think we will visit again. read more
This was our first time getting Lebanese ice cream. It is stretchier and milkier than normal ice cream. Don't be shy to ask for samples -- they are very welcoming and more than happy to share about their flavors! ＊Ashta and Pistachio in Traditional Biscuit Ashta is a pistachio ice cream bursting with floral notes from orange blossom and dipped in crushed pistachios. Both flavors were fantastic. I picked the traditional biscuit as my cone. The flat rectangular shape made it easier to hold in hand. Very crunchy. ＊Lotus Biscoff, Coffee and Chocolate in Royal Cup No explanation needed -- My mom devoured the three-scoop whole royal cup ALONE. Strongly recommend the lotus biscoff ice cream. read more
It was my first time trying Le Parfait over the weekend. My wife and I had the fairly reasonably priced brunch combo which included crepes, coffee, and ice cream (or fruit cocktail). The crepes were delicious, I really enjoyed my beef steak one which had an excellent sauce. The real star of the show for me was the Ashta ice cream which was rolled in pistachios. Food was pretty fast coming out and the staff was pleasant. read more
I went to Le Parfait and got the Ashta Cloud Cone which is one of their featured items for the Vancouver Ice Cream festival! I've never had ashta before but it has a floral/milky taste and the pistachios gave the ice cream a nutty flavour as well as crunchy texture. I also liked that the overall flavour of the ice cream was subtle which the cotton candy giving it an extra bit of sweetness. I do like fruit flavoured ice creams more but I really enjoyed the experience of trying ashta ice cream and I'd recommend it if you've never had it before! The cafe was very well designed and had a salon vibe and the staff was also very nice and gave my friend and I two spoons to eat our ice cream with! read more
Came here on a friend's recommendation! I really enjoyed Le Parfait, one of my favorite ice cream spots ever. Parking is a little difficult as expected in downtown Vancouver. The store front is on Homer St and there is plentiful seating outside and inside. The noise level was very quaint and the vibes were intimate! The service was amazing as they recommended their top flavors and allowed us to sample as much as we wanted to. I ended up getting their traditional biscuit with two scoops of Ashta which was a middle Eastern flavour and Rose Water. The ashta had a taffy-like texture to it. It was really interesting and delicious! The rosewater scoop was light and fragrant. This is probably one of my favorite dessert places to visit. read more

Thank you so much Conway, it is our pleasure to serve you again!
We had a great time at Le Parfait! It has a cute interior and lots of seats. We ordered one savory and one sweet crepe and they were both delicious. I couldn't decide which one I liked more! The staff was really nice and let us know of an upcoming promotion that they were doing too. Come check them out of you like crepes and desserts! I'm hoping to come back and try their ice cream :) read more

Interesting desserts in a cute cafe! My only complaint about the interior is that it's too warm. They allowed samples, and the staff were friendly. Unfortunately, they were sold out of both of the things that we really wanted to try. We ended up ordering The Exotic specialty parfait, and it was okay. Avocado definitely didn't taste like what we expected. read more
Ambiance: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Food: 5/5 Big fan of this spot! I was having dinner in the area so decided to pop by here after learning it was Lebanese ice cream. They had a mix of classic flavours and traditional ones and the staff were so lovely about explaining the tradition flavours and allowing us to sample them before deciding. We got the Ashta, Rose Water, and Pistachio flavours and they were great - super creamy and the perfect amount of sweetness. Will definitely be going back! read more
Despite having parfait in the name and only serving up fruit parfaits, this is one of the best ice cream places in Vancouver. The ice cream isn't quite as creamy as at Winter Bear, so it's not the creamiest ice cream you can get in Vancouver, but it's still very creamy and has a really rich combination of flavors. Their specialty flavors, Ashta, Miske, and Rose Water are all great (although Rose Water has a texture more like a sorbet than an ice cream, so don't get that if you want something creamy and smooth). Also, the ice cream was very smooth, with no ice crystals. You might think that goes without saying but, unfortunately, it doesn't -- the popular places like Earnest and Rain or Shine don't store their ice cream with good temperature control and give you ice-y ice cream. Their savoury crepes are a bit hit or miss, e.g., while their halloumi crepe was tasty and I don't regret ordering it, the tomatoes were mediocre, flavorless, tomatoes and the halloumi wasn't fried or grilled and it was like eating raw halloumi out of the fridge, so the halloumi isn't quite what I expected and the quality of the produce didn't match the stellar quality of the ice cream here. If I was only rating the crepes, they're still good enough that I'd give this place 4 stars; it was just a bit of a disappointment by comparison to the amazing ice cream here, which absolutely blows away the tourist traps like Rain or Shine and is up there with the absolute best small speciality ice cream shops. If you want some interesting Lebanese flavors and don't want the absolute creamiest ice cream, then I'd rate this as the best ice cream shop in Vancouver. And if you want the creamiest ice cream, then this is still top 3. Also, the service is great. Super friendly, with customer oriented policies that let you sample a lot of flavors and let you mix three flavors into the smallest serving of ice cream (and as many as you want for the large serving). On top of having great ice cream, this place also has the most customer-focused service I've experienced. This is just an all around great place. read more

Lebanese Ice Cream...I didn't even know there was such a thing until Le Parfait opened up in Vancouver! You can have your ice cream in a cup, cone or a biscuit. In a cup is always my preference but I have to admit, I do love the look of the biscuit. It's just so different from the standard ice cream cones that you see everywhere else! The people here are very friendly and helpful. You can sample different flavors before deciding on which to have. Loved every flavor we tried but if you're looking for something different then I'd highly recommend the Ashta. It was definitely my favourite flavor. They also serve crepes at Le Parfait and I can't wait to go back sometime so I can try out their crepes! Service: Excellent Parking: Paid parking on the street Location: 812 Home St., Vancouver read more
Really nice flavored rose & jallab (date syrup) gelato - not your traditional gelato but enjoyed it! It's more of a sorbetto because it's not creamy. The service was great and the cashier actually recommended the jallab to go with the rose and it was great. Generous portions and got the cone as well. Service was friendly. It's a small shop and I'd visit again when in Vancouver! read more
A Lebanese twist on crepes and ice cream! They have sweet and savoury (featuring Mediterranean flavours) crepes and waffles, fruit parfaits, and ice cream specialties in a variety of Lebanese flavours. They have lots of unique stuff! All your standard espresso drinks plus Lebanese coffee and hot chocolate are also served. There are no vegan crepe options, but a few of the fruit ice creams are vegan and they do have nondairy milk for drinks. I got... Halloumi crepe: I was wondering how this would work because I usually see halloumi served in large slices, but this was filled with gooey "mashed" halloumi which was distributed evenly. Presentation was slightly underwhelming with just a small handful of cherry tomato slices haphazardly thrown on top, but this was very tasty. The halloumi texture was nice and I loved the pop of flavour of the sun-dried tomato inside. The crepe batter was soft but not soggy. Could have used more of the fresh vegetables to take it to the next level for me, but nonetheless a solid crepe. Ice cream on a traditional biscuit: They can mix up to 3 flavours for this, but the portion isn't as ridiculously large as what ordering 3 scoops at most ice cream shops would result in. I got a mix of the 3 specialty flavours: rose water, miske, and ashta. The texture was not really what I was expecting; the rose water is icy like a sorbet in texture, and the other 2 flavours were more like soft serve than hard ice cream or gelato, still a little icy. It wasn't a texture that I disliked at all, there was just a moment of cognitive dissonance when it didn't line up with what I was imagining. I liked the soft ice cream and that none of the flavours were too sweet. The rose water was the most intense flavour. I liked the flavour of the miske the most (very different; I don't know the words to describe it more precisely), but the overall experience of the ashta the most because of the pistachio coating, and this was also the creamiest. The biscuit was a fun replacement for the usual cone: the fellow serving did a good job getting the ice cream all the way in there, and it was like eating an ice cream sandwich. None of the flavours were too sweet which left me with less of that sticky aftertaste that usually follows ice cream for me. The one staff member working up front was friendly and enthusiastic and made me feel very welcome, greeting everyone when they came in and thanking them as they left, checking how the food was. The cafe provides a nice and comfortable environment to enjoy your treats. read more

It was my first time having Lebanese ice cream. I heard many good reviews on their ashta ice cream so I gotta try. I had ashta with a biscuit. The ice cream wasn't too sweet but it was creamy and chewy. The staff was also generous with the ice-cream, they filled the entire biscuit with ashta so I was pretty full after but very satisfying. I can't wait to go back to try out other flavors as well read more
I've been meaning to check this place out for a while. I'm sure glad I did. Had a delicious crepe made with Lebanese cheese pesto and tomatoes. Incredibly yummy. We also split a banana split. He he. Mango, blackberry and chocolate. I can't say I really noticed any difference between this and other quality ice cream I've had. Maybe my palate isn't discerning enough? I just really enjoyed this delicious ice cream. I'd recommend just for the crepes but the ice cream makes it doubly worth it. read more
