Both their matcha latte and cappuccino were yum! Service was good; the lovely guy at the front counter helped us figure out what to order; that was appreciated. The place was buzzing with chatter and happiness. So cool!

Cookie and Cream and Coffee chip combination was very successful. Ice cream itself were not overly sweet, it paired nicely with sweet chocolate coating . And we all loved chocolate cookie crunch. Overall, Glenburn soda's ice cream cakes were really fun. Presentation of both cakes were amazing. All guests loved both cakes. Highly recommend for gathering, holiday and birthday.

HAPPY DAYs at the GLENBURN…read more It was an eclectic experience of the 1950's a blast into the past , the ambience , the vibes and best of all the ice cream themed menu par excellence . You are live on set of the TV series, Happy Days. Also a great selection of theme candy and pop as well . You see the soda fountain and it looks like Arnold from Happy days will appear . There are the retro turnstile seats which you can imagine sitting there with Ritchie Cunningham , Potsy, and the Fonz . Only thing missing was some 50/60's music to add a cherry on top of the experience . We had the featured specials of the exquisite in cones, Cherry Vanilla and Honeycomb lavender .. ... was so good we should have order a tub of it and eat it with a giant ladle and a bib .

Everything is 100% dedicated gluten-free, which means you can walk in and order anything without the usual cross-contamination stress. For anyone with celiac or gluten sensitivity, that peace of mind alone is huge. But the real star of the show? The ice cream sandwiches. They're hands-down some of the best I've ever had. The cookies are perfectly soft and chewy with a slight crisp, the ice cream is creamy, and the ratio is spot on so every bite is balanced. They feel indulgent, nostalgic, and elevated all at the same time. They also have vegan "nice cream" options, which is such a thoughtful touch. Even if you're dairy-free, you're not stuck with boring flavors -- the vegan options are just as rich and satisfying as the classic ones. The whole place feels like a dream for anyone with dietary restrictions: delicious, inclusive, and made with real care. Whether you're gluten-free or just love amazing ice cream, this spot is absolutely worth the visit. Note that they're also available on Uber Eats!!

Modern, contemporary design with plenty of warm woods. Tho its my first time here, my friend spent almost half her visits to Commercial Drive at this cafe.

AND I could not leave without buying their gorgeous massive pecan caramel rolls! Took one home (gave the other to my friend) & was able to eat it across a few days. I was amazed how well it kept!

I'd say Mundo's croissant type baked goods is a toss up in the top 3 at the moment. Mundo is on my list for whenever I need to cake up for future events. I had an individual sized chocolate cake and it did not skimp on the ingredients. They know how to make and store icing here. The cake was so moist that it wasn't sloppy. Very well done.

I was pleasantly surprised by Krave Kulture, a frozen yogurt place located inside Lonsdale Quay…read more My boyfriend found this place on Google and wanted to try it after dinner. When we arrived, there was an enormous line and a large crowd of people waiting for their order. This build up quite the anticipation. We ordered the Dubai chocolate parfait. When I picked up the order, I could see various different toppings and chocolate + raspberry froyo. Everything together tasted amazing and was just the right amount of sweetness, tartness, and crunch. We cleaned the entire parfait in minutes. I would love to return to try other parfaits and flavours or froyo!

(That might have a lot to do with the free parking!) Came here with my daughter on a Saturday night. Usually we come to Krave Kulture during the day but this was the first time we came later in the evening. I think it was sometime past 8pm when we arrived. Big, long lineup. Very popular place. We decided to sit in the car for awhile and see if the lineup might die down. Every few minutes I came out, and still saw people lined up. After coming out to check about 2 or 3 times, I realized that a lot of the people in front had gone in, ordered and come out with their orders but that the line was still long because new people kept arriving and joining the line. Wow...I mean, we love this place of course and I guess it should be no surprise that this place is popular since we ourselves love this place so much, but we never knew just how popular this place had become. When we first started coming here a few years ago, it was easier to get in. Seems the lineups have grown. Anyways, we decided to finally just join the line instead of waiting in the car for it to dwindle cuz that really wasn't working out for us. Got to the front, ordered a large Vanilla/Chocolate twist with unlimited toppings. Happy, happy, happy. I really hope they will start opening up more Krave Kultures in other parts of Greater Vancouver. Ahem, Burnaby or New West would be very much appreciated!

I had always wanted to try their New Zealand style Frozen Yogurt. Soft serve was very creamy and the level of sweetness was perfect! And there were a lot of strawberries pieces inside, it was not overly sweet, slightly tangy flavor. In general, I can't really eat tangy flavor dessert, but, this place's soft serve was well-balanced, therefore, I had no problem to have it. And white chocolate matcha coating paired perfectly with soft serve. And I really loved freeze dried strawberries, it was a great accent. One thing that really surprised me was the size!! It was way larger than I expected. It really worth trying their soft serve. Highly recommend!

This time, I was keen on trying their ice cream festival feature. The strawberry ice cream dipped in matcha white chocolate was a dream! My boyfriend got the mixed berry with a fig bar on the side and it tasted mostly like their regular berry ice cream. However, what shocked me was that the ice cream feature costed about $15 after tax/tip per cone. I can't lie I was a bit turned off after realizing how much it cost. Their typical ice cream is around $8 which is already a bit hefty. I suppose it makes sense with rising costs and hopefully, the honour to pay staff fair wages. There is ample seating outside, although it is not the most accessible as it's quite rocky. The vibes indoors and outdoors are really cute though.
