Dubai (+$2) and sweater potato with marshmallow.
Chenda N.

Stopped by Short and Sweet the day after Thanksgiving, and honestly, this spot lived up to its name. They had seven flavors on deck, and I grabbed two of each because commitment matters. Favorites: The Dubai flavor was a fun surprise. The sweet potato with roasted marshmallow was adorable--they torch the marshmallow right on top, and yes, it tastes as cute as it looks. The churro hit the spot, and the caramel maple was solid. The raspberry was just okay for me. A few of them had a slightly oily aftertaste, but not enough to ruin anything. Texture-wise, I wish they were a bit chewier, but again--not a dealbreaker. Service was great. Super friendly staff, good conversation, bright and clean space. I'm not sure if the guy I talked to was the owner, but whoever he was, he was nice. Bottom line: fun stop, good vibes, tasty overall. I'd definitely come back.

Crème brûlée boba half sweet
Karen T.

I have to say, we got this around lunch time, we were home before 1this afternoon. I had this in the fridge and 4 1/2 hours later it's still so good! My bobas are still soft and chewy, the taste is great although I did get it half sweet. We also got an assortment of mochi donuts and they are great and fresh also. We'll be back.

Strawberry Matcha Latte
Keely N.

The strawberry matcha latte was mid! I couldn't taste the matcha flavor. It mainly tasted like the milk. The tapioca pearls were chewy. Good service. The employees were very helpful! The ambiance was nice! There were lots of seats available and well decorated with cute plushie and a groovy wall.

wintermelon milk tea with crystal boba
Jessica L.

Was walking around downtown and saw this cute store selling mochi donuts and boba. The Inside was well decorated and very aesthetic. There are a few tables and a couch. Service was fast and pleasant. They sell bahn mi here as well! Got a wintermelon milk tea with crystal boba (less ice, 25% sweet). It was still pretty sweet, especially for 25%. Wintermelon flavor is not very strong... the drink kind of just tastes sweet. Crystal boba was cooked well, not mushy or undercooked. However, it didn't have any additional flavor or sweetener added to it, as it didn't taste like much on its own. Cost was a bit on the pricier side (about $6.50), but with little competition nearby, the convenience can be worth the extra cost. Would be open to trying the mochi donuts next time I'm nearby, but probably not the boba.

I love Short & Sweet. I have been going here with my husband since they first opened up, we're very much regulars. We always get tofu and chicken banh mi, and they are both delicious. Their in-house mayo is so good and I haven't found another banh mi place that replicates it. It's truly one of a kind. I also love they have vegetarian options. Their drinks are also so good! This is one of my favorite boba places, and the boba pearls are consistently fresh. They're never old or hard. They also have a variety of fresh fruit tea and amazing milk tea drinks, I love them both. You can also control the sweetness and I think they have milk alternatives if I'm not mistaken, which is great! Their Vietnamese coffee is probably the best one I've had, if they ever have the crème brûlée Vietnamese coffee on the menu, I definitely recommend that. They're also great to go to in the colder months because they have hot boba. Their mochi donuts are so fun and always taste great as well. I love that they rotate which donut flavors they have. The staff is so friendly and kind, and always greet customers. We come here so much the owners and staff recognize us and we always have a mini catch up. They are a family business that cares about their customers, and it shows. I definitely recommend Short & Sweet because of their amazing staff, great service, variety of drinks, and delicious food.

These mochi donuts are much softer than ones I've had at other places, they were delicious! So now I don't need to drive 30 min out to get them. We had the Ferrero Rocher and the cinnamon sugar ones. I love how the place is set up! Cute furniture, cute little things to buy and cute places to take pics! It's very light and bright in there and it's a nice place to meet with friends or take the kiddos.

Fun little bubble tea and bahn mi and mochi donut shop to grab a bite while exploring downtown Vancouver. The wait staff was friendly even on a busy Pokémon weekend. The bubble tea was good and they did just a mango juice for my daughter even though it's not listed on the menu board.

Went on a mission over the weekend to get me some mochi donuts & boba tea of course. I wanna say they're the only ones in Vancouver to make those. I went with the strawberry milk tea regular sweetness & the 3 pack donuts (strawberry shortcake, cocoa crispy, & pandan coconut). First off, their cups are great quality, thick & they put a little cute heart stopper in it. Once mixed, my drink was so yummy. Nice & creamy, yet refreshing for a sunny day. Boba was cooked perfectly. Donuts were a good texture, not too sticky, not tough. My favorite was the pandan. The aesthetic on here is very picture worthy. There is even a little nook to where you can take a photo. It'd be great hang out spot with friends. Service was great. Definitely want to come back to try the banh mi. We did however circle the area multiple times trying to look for the parking area mentioned in another review that's free for 2 hours. We gave up & finally parked on the street nearby, which looked to be free on weekends. Once we got to the shop, we could see the parking area from the window, now we know.

Super cute aesthetic, great boba and I love their banh mi too! They're also the only place that I've found mochi donuts in Vancouver (although only sold on weekends). Totally worth checking out!

This places makes my favorite bahn mi and I've eaten bahn mi's all over SF and LA. While there isn't much competition yet in Vancouver WA .... this place is actually legit and it's become my go to bahn mi place whenever I get a craving Their best creation is their lemongrass tofu bahn mi because it's so freaking delicious and flavorful. I love it even more than my older favorite flavor (combination ham) and am solely eating this flavor now. The flavors are subtle but when all the combined ingredients make it super satisfying. Their bahn mi mayo is on point and their sandwiches are loaded! Their sandwiches are a lot more filling and robust than typical bahn mi's and for the price you pay, it is worth it. Every time I go, I need to save the other bahn mi half for another meal. Pro-tip: Add that extra egg white and your sandwich goes from amazing to f***ing amazing.

Strawberry Matcha with egg pudding
Emily D.

A beautifully welcoming space for all with friendly staff, a wide selection of drinks and amazing food you won't find anywhere else in Vancouver. The mochi doughnuts are a rare find and so delicious! The rotating flavors gives you a chance to try something new every week. 10/10 would recommend this gem of a spot here in Vancouver.

Brown Sugar Tiger Milk and Creme Brulee Brown Sugar Milk Tea

We love this place! The boba tea is amazing, the mochi doughnuts are great! We got the Brown Sugar Tiger Milk Boba and the Crème Brûlée Boba tea. We also got the doughnuts and they are amazing! The service is great and the atmosphere is awesome! They even have a game shelf to use while you wait for and enjoy your food and drink! 5/5 Stars!

Michaela D.

The drink I chose was really good and the service was fast and kind! The employee brought my drink out to my table which I was not expecting at all! The atmosphere inside is inviting and calming.

We were there as the last 4 of the first 100 customers so we got the goodie bags, cute jar of milk tea and some croc charms and keychain, no more stickers. Line got busy quickly and they did a 40% discount today as well. They did forget 2 out of 7 of our beverages so while we were waiting for all our drinks they just spaced out and forgot and continued on with processing more orders. So our other 2 tests didn't come until 20-30 mins later. I would say as they continue on with their business and get the hang on it will be better. Always room for improvement! would recommend letting them know if you've been waiting for more than 10 minutes to remind them as they're very busy with processing walk in orders and takeaways like uber eats etc. Very cute decor and it has very limited seating and space to stand to wait inside. Parking lot is shared with other shops and businesses nearby. Ordered their original bubble waffle as they're out of icecream or there was some technical issues so it doesn't work well. I custom made my drink as I sampled their rose milk tea and really loved the rose aroma but wanted refreshing drink on a hot day like today. I ordered paradise fruit tea with fresh fruits like a passion fruit seed, chia seed, strawberry, lemon/lime and watermelon etc and added a hint of rose syrup with extra jasmine green tea and had it overall less sweetened from other sweeteners. It came out perfect! Would recommend giving it a try if you like rose scent and flavor and enjoy a good fruit tea. we also got a galaxy drink, avocado blended shake, taro blended shake, peach lemongrass tea, sugar cane drink and my fruit tea. would come again for sure when in area, very cute place!

The scallion noodles was too salty. And the basil chicken was dry (unlike boba spot, they used chicken breast I believe). Overall, enjoyed the chicken noodles stir fry and cucumber salad here. Service was great at the front. The young girls did a great job. The other girl working behind the counter could be a bit more friendly. Overall, cute place but could use louder music to set the mood a bit becuase I felt weird that it was so quiet. Would come back again for the milk tea if we are ever in town again.
