Cute, welcoming, fun place to stop and check out. I've driven by here daily on my way to work and wanted to check it out so my son (13) and I finally made it happen tonight. My son ordered the sweet bear + ice cream combo. He chose the Oreo sweet bear with chocolate ice cream. The sweet bear has a waffle type texture and taste. The filling was - yep, an Oreo. He quite enjoyed the filling and the ice cream but the waffle texture wasn't his thing. He still gave is an 8.5 out of 10! So pretty good. I ordered the 2 sweet bear and the new Sugar Mommy Coffee with jelly. I wasn't sure what it was so I decided to give it a try. Con's - I wasn't able to order just 1 bear. I knew I wouldn't eat both bears so I was disappointed that they are only sold as a combo. Secondly, the sugar mommy coffee was ok - it wasn't horrible and it wasn't great. I did not like the texture of the jelly but I do believe that's an acquired taste. I gave 4 stars because even though I didn't love everything enough to want to keep coming back - it was a very pleasant and interesting experience. I can see why people do love it. If I were to return, I'd like to try their refreshers or other drinks. My son said he would come for the drinks as well to try different ones. I also gave 4 stars for the ambiance and customer service. Although, you do order yourself - the staff was friendly and explained your order to you. What is preventing 5 stars? I did not dock a star for taste because I believe that's not on the business - that's on individual taste and preferences. I do feel it's a little more expensive than I expected but not horribly overpriced. However, lack of seating could be an issue when busy - it would be nice if they had outdoor seating. Also, major downside for me was having to order 2 sweet bears instead of 1. Even though it wasn't my absolute favorite, I'd still encourage people to give it a go. Try it and see what YOU think. I love supporting local, small businesses and think you should too! :) read more

Super cute place to get snacks and drinks! I've had their matcha, mango refresher and the custard bear. 2 bears are about $5, that's a good deal. Bear fillings include custard, Nutella, red bean, Oreo and plain. I believe there are others like cheese too for an up charge. I've always taken it to-go but looks like there are plenty of seating. Hours are interesting. They don't open until 2pm on weekdays. read more

Sweet Bear Cafe - Desserts Near Me - Lucas, Texas

Stopping by twice during their grand opening week of May 11th, our family really enjoyed their bubble tea drinks, snacks, and hospitality. Located in a very small strip mall in Allen, TX, Sweet Bear is a locally owned small cafe, that just opened in the space that previously had a very good donut shop. The husband/wife owners share their dream (in their own words): "to share a little sweetness, and joy to our community through handcrafted Korean desserts, drinks, and treats". After ordering and paying, one can sit and wait in the few cafe tables/chairs set around the cafe. It takes as long as one would expect for personalized orders, with drinks being finished in the order received. We tried a couple of their drinks, including a Korean Strawberry Milk ($4.95) personalized with lychee jelly (+$.75). One can choose the sweetness level (25% to 100%)...both times, we tried it at 50% and it was very sweet, definitely giving a sugar high if drunk too fast. On both of our trips, we got the sweet bear duo (two bears for $4.95), consisting of a freshly baked waffle batter in the shape of a bear, with custom filling. I personally tried custard, sweet red bean, oreo, and nutella...all good with custard being my favorite. One can order it with ice cream on the side (+$3.95), and that was a great bite: with warm waffle cake and custard, with the cold ice cream. As one can see, the prices are very reasonable. They are on Instagram and ordering online is enabled via snackpass. On both days/nights, the owners were busy at work in the back (a steady stream of customers were coming in), but they still made time to say hello. Their story is shown across their shop, personalizing it as a local business. Using technology to automate what they can (ordering is via kiosks with no cash accepted), and focusing on the important stuff is a recipe for success: handcrafted drinks, snacks and good consistent service (heard the owner always ask every customer to let him know if something was wrong, and he would make it right). It's the perfect attitude. read more

Such a cute boba shop run by the nicest couple. The boba is creamy and affordable. I tried two warm sweet bear cakes with Nutella and custard and both were delicious with the perfect amount of filling. The taro and milk tea bobas at 75 percent sweetness were perfect and came out fast. read more

My kids swim class is nearby and decided to check it out after class. One family came in before us and there was no-one else there. They have one kiosk for orders which bottle necks as 2 other families came in after me and we were all just waiting as the staff is just waiting for the orders to come in. They should have a POS behind the counter for a live person to take orders as needed as the person in front me took a bit to view the menu and decide what to order. The staff were nice and recommended the best way to eat the bears. We got the oreo and custard flavors. Oreo reminded me of a fried oreo. I wasn't fond of the custard flavor but my son and his family ate it up. The waffle bear its self was nice a crispy. Overall we would come back and try other flavors. They also sell bubble tea which we didn't get today but they had samples of the jasmine milk tea and winter melon milk tea both at 50% sweet. Out of the 2, I preferred the winter melon. They were good but I thought even at 50% sweetness, it was still very sweet. I would probably get 25% as boba/jellies would make it sweeter. Decor is cute. Not fond of the tables/stools as they aren't comfortable and the table easy tips over. My kiddos were trying to climb up to sit on bench/stools and reached up to the table for grip and I had to hold the table in place to prevent it from tipping over. read more

Super cute Asian-owned boba tea place in Allen/Lucas area. I tried the Korean Strawberry milk tea with boba and my husband got the Refreshing Pink Drink. The boba was cooked really well and both drinks were tasty. We also tried their taiyaki dessert, it's a cute little bears with fillings. We ate the honey&cream and Nutella bears. It was sooo good I bought a whole box to take to my mom for her and I to share. It's family owned and they're super friendly. They even offered samples for us to try but I already knew what I wanted. Please check them out since they've only been open for a couple of months! They also have instagram read more

This place is amazing!! The bubble tea was tasty but what really stole the show were the Sweet Bear pastries. I tried the Custard and Oreo fillings. The Custard was my favorite, but I was shocked to see a whole Oreo inside the other bear. The Honeydew bubble tea was light and refreshing. They have some seatings, so it's nice to sit and chat with friends. read more

Ate the waffle bears and they were so good. You can order with a different filling for each and the opportunity for that made it so enjoyable! No one really working at the counter you just order at kiosk and they have self serve sample. Drinks themselves are waaaay sweet even at 50% sugar. Not my thing but maybe someone else's. Music in the background nice and place itself has instagram-able walls. Hood place to check out if you're in the area! read more

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS PLACE! The food is so amazing! I get the sweet bear filled with either Nutella or chocolate caramel (there are 8 different options but I can't remember them all) and then you choose an ice cream flavor (also has lots of options, I usually get the vanilla). What you do is break the bear in half and then put some ice cream on the bear to take the bite together. You get the hot bear with the cold ice cream and it is AMAZING! They also have milk teas and I usually get the jasmine milk tea at 50% sweetness (you can choose 25%, 50%, 75%, or 100% sweetness, I always pick 50% and that's definitely sweet enough for me). You can add the boba to drinks that don't come with the boba and there are again lots of different ones to choose from. The service is amazing, I love the owners. They're always so happy and excited, it makes the energy in the place so positive. The ambiance is so cute too, they have little conversation starters on the tables which is really cute if you need something to mix it up. I live about 2 minutes from this place and so I go regularly, the owners know me and I recently got a job so when I went in to get my usual order they gave me a box of study snacks to eat while I prepare to take my insurance license exam. It was so sweet and I really appreciated the thoughtfulness of their gesture. Highly recommend coming here, you'll definitely want to come back! read more

Such a cool cafe to have here in Allen! The space is really cozy with greenery and fairy lights lining the walls. Lots of great spots to sit, they have made good use of the space to make plenty of space for people. Easy to order at the kiosk. Very intuitive and you can easily customize your order once adding something. The owner was there handing out orders. He was very kind and made sure everyone was happy with their orders and checking if anyone needed anything. They are still in their soft opening, grand opening is next week starting May 12th. They have some deals coming up that week that look like they are worth checking out! We ordered the taro milk tea, honeydew refresher, a honey and cream taiyaki, and a brown sugar cream taiyaki. Taro milk tea is a go to for us, so we had to try it and see how this one stands up. Have to say, this is one of the best, and creamiest taro milk teas! So good and will definitely get it again! Honeydew refresher is a non caffeinated drink. You can choose to get it carbonated or not. I choose to not get it carbonated this time. It comes with melon flavored jellies in it as well. This drink is for melon lovers! It is sweet, refreshing and delicious! Will be a good go to for summer! The taiyaki were both so fresh and tasty! The honey cream flavor was a little too subtle, wish it was a little more forward with honey flavor. But the brown sugar cream really brought the flavor. Will definitely get that one again! Excited to come back here and to have a tea shop on the east side of town! read more

Cute spot! The drinks and treats are really yummy! The drink flavors are great! However, they're a bit too sweet. I always get 25% sweetness level, but I think it's closer to 75%. There's no option to make it less sweet. Others feel the same. The last two times I went they were also out of regular boba both times =/ read more

What a cute little boba place tucked away in a corner of Allen! I was looking for a new dessert and boba spot for our family to try--something close to home--and came across Sweet Bear Café. The reviews, menu, photos, and prices were all perfect, so we decided to check it out. We placed our drink and dessert orders using their iPad system, but their super friendly staff were right nearby, ready to answer any questions and help if needed. Great service! What we ordered: * Drinks: Korean Café, Strawberry Milk, Taro Milk, Strawberry Refresher, Mango Refresher (with fizzy water) * Dessert: Their adorable bear-shaped treats (similar to taiyaki in Japan or bungeoppang in Korea) First of all--everyone loved their drinks! My husband and I found that 50% sweetness was just right, while our kids preferred 75-100% for that extra sweet kick. If you order a box of the bear-shaped desserts, you can choose the filling for each one. They offer a fun variety of flavors! I stuck with my favorite--red bean--but my husband tried the brown sugar filling and said it was gooey, sweet, and delicious! While we waited, we enjoyed reading some of the fun conversation cards on the tables. It's a cozy, cheerful place with lots of personality. 5 stars all the way! P.S. If you visit, take a moment to read the owner's story on the wall. They're Allen locals, and it's such a heartwarming background. Always happy to support small, local businesses! read more

Very cute Korean cafe. They had K-Pop music playing in the background. Adequate volume. What I found cool is they had come ice-breakers on the tables. Also, they had their story up for customers to read. I felt happy about supporting a family-owned business. Service was amazing. I was greeted by the staff as soon as I entered. They went over their ordering system (kiosk based). They offered me samples on display of some of their drinks. I tried the Korean matcha. Very refreshing. The sweet bears were my favorite. I had the custard flavor. Very warm and delicious! read more

My favorite bear pastry is the custard, oreo, and red bean. They are not overly sweet, soft warm filling on the inside and, nice a crispy outside. Be careful since they are hot and are made to order so it's fresh. Orders are done on a tablet and is cashless so bring plastic. The cafe is located in a small quiet neighborhood. Met the owners who are a nice young couple who are locals of the area. The cute bear design is what drew me in. It is unique and kinda sad cause you have to eat it to enjoy it. Recommended. read more

Love this place! The owners are present, so friendly, and just nice people. The Sweet Bears are unique to the area. They are very yummy. You have to eat it fresh to get the crispness of the bear.

I will be frequenting this shop. 5 stars for service. 5 stars for cleanliness. 5 stars for unique tasty snackiness. They have 1 ordering kiosk.

Super cute new boba shop by long-time residents of the city. I love that they are so friendly and customer-oriented, though some may get impatient with only a single order kiosk I'm fine with it. It can get loud as it's a very small place, so i don't think it would work well as a study space, but it's fun to come and go with family. Maybe some soundproofing one day? I hope they get a chance to open a larger store one day. Shop local & support small businesses like this one!! The drinks are great though very sweet-- i order a 25% and that's like another store's 50-75%. I love that they give samples! read more

This place is a hidden gem. The owners were there and were super sweet and provided exceptional customer service.

Hidden Gem for Boba and Bears! It's all about the details here, and that's what truly makes this spot stand out. From the moment you walk in, it's spotless--without the harsh chemical smells you often find at other boba shops. Ordering is a breeze, whether through a kiosk or by scanning a QR code. We tried a drink and several bears (highly customizable with sweetness and ice levels). While waiting, we had fun answering thoughtful questions on slips of paper at the table--such a charming touch. Our drink arrived first, and the staff encouraged us to let them know if anything needed adjusting. Shortly after, the bears came out warm and fresh. Each container was labeled with stickers indicating the filling, and the owners even took the time to personally explain them to us. They also added cute logo stickers, showing their care in presentation. Every bear was perfectly crunchy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside, with just the right amount of filling. The quality control was spot on--uniform, evenly baked, and delicious. Prices were very reasonable, especially compared to other local boba spots. I'll definitely be back soon for more drinks and another round of red bean and Oreo bears. The owners are so kind, and I'm seriously impressed with how organized and consistent they are--especially for a new place. Highly recommend! One small suggestion: it would be great to see more non-caffeinated drink options, especially simple fruit-based ones like lychee or mango. These would definitely appeal to a younger crowd looking for something light and refreshing to pair with their bears--especially those who might not have a taste yet for more complex flavors. It would be a perfect addition to an already fantastic menu! read more

This is my new favorites go to spot for Milk tea and Taiyaki bears (with various filling)! The shop is so cute and the owners are the sweetest.

We also ordered a Rich Thai Milk Tea & A My Sugar Daddy specialty drink. If you love to support local businesses like I do, be sure to stop by. You won't regret it.
