I did not have a large sampling of the options provided by this Tsujiri location in Metrotown, so I may update this review over time as I try other items. But the one item I got was more than disappointing. The Dango with red bean and brown sugar was just mochi in a watered down puddle of brown sugar water and then red bean on top. I know, I probably should have gotten other items. But I really wanted to get some Dango. This was a big miss. read more

Needed a sweet pick-me-up after a couple hours of warring the Metrotown crowd and ended up at this cute little spot tucked away in the most unassuming corner. I got the hojicha latte but was slightly disappointed when it only tasted like milk. My partner's yuzu frappe on the other hand was the unexpected winner. It was floral in the best way with creamy yogurt swirls. The yuzu flavor was unmistakable. I'm not sure if this was a seasonal item but if you get the chance, this drink is a must-try. read more

I'd heard about Tsujiri many moons ago and finally tried it out, I feel like their location at Metrotown has been open for some time! I got the classic iced matcha latte (~$7) to assess their quality and I definitely to say it was well done and smooth. The service was fast, and it was a very solid drink! Not to be overlooked for a quality matcha in the mall. read more

another visit to metrotown metropolis during the chaotic holiday rush had us parched after braving the crowds. this little spot near superstore and next to the little tea house looked like the perfect place to recharge, but it didn't quite hit the mark. not gonna lie, the drinks here look appealing, and the choices are many. black sesame, yuzu, hojicha, floats and parfaits, oh my! their most popular item on the menu is the o-matcha latte, a hand crafted matcha espresso blended with steamed milk for $8 (my partner chose this one, and he was not a fan). i decided to try the matcha frappe, which is a mix of matcha slush and yogurt, topped with whipped cream and matcha sauce for $8.50. the first few sips were delicious, refreshing, with the perfect balance of sweetness and matcha flavour. but then, it all went downhill. after those first few sips, i was left with mostly slushed ice. i tried to let it melt, but by the time i could get to it, the paper straw had completely disintegrated. i had high hopes for this place. the drinks are beautifully presented, and the matcha quality is evident, but the overall experience doesn't quite justify the price. for $8 or more, the cups are too small, packed with ice, and the paper straws don't hold up long enough to finish the drink. read more

Whenever I want a matcha drink, Tsujiri is my go to place. The drinks are made with matcha powder and have a stronger taste of green tea. My favorite drink is the kuromitsu kinako matcha latte. I like the sweet roasted soybean matcha flavor in the drink. Plus I don't think you can get that at other places. The soft serve is equally nice though I get the drink more than the dessert stuff. This is a small shop which is just for take out. I don't see any tables and chairs for dining in. They also sells dacquoise and cheesecake. Located across from St Germaine bakery near Superstore. read more

We'd just gotten back from a trip to Japan, and were missing our Hojicha ice cream so I stopped by Tsujiri in Metrotown and bought a Hojicha float for my daughter and I to share. There was barely any liquid in the float. It was really more of a soft serve ice cream than a float. This hit the spot though as the Hojicha ice cream is really what we were after. For some reason, the menu at Tsujiri doesn't offer an option of having Hojicha ice cream on its own. Only in a float. I have noticed an older review for this place though, where someone managed to get Hojicha soft serve in a cone. I wonder if it's something I simply need to inquire about at the store. Didn't quite match up to the Hojicha ice creams that we'd had in Japan but for a nearby option that was a short drive away, and not a plane ride away...I was happy with this!

This place is take out only as there is no place to sit. Ordered the houjicha float during the very hot summer day. Totally made my day. Houjicha taste is pretty strong with good level of sweetness. It also has some crumbs that make the texture even better. Will come back to try the yuzu flavoured drinks. read more

Typically never disappointed by 1) ice cream and 2) matcha-y ice cream, this tsujiri experience broke barriers. As someone who rarely visits metrotown I was so excited to see this small Tsujiri take out stall while leaving superstore. Since tsujiri opened their OG Richmond location, I've declared myself a die hard yuzu-match float fanatic. I really should've stuck with my gut here but decided to be adventurous as the hojicha soft serve looks drool worth on the menu. For close to $8 a soft serve, the flavour (aka the hojicha oomph) did not hit the spot at all. The tea aromas were mellow to the point that the soft serve just tasted milky bland with a nice butter dry texture, and left a oily residue in the mouth. All that and the size of cone was equivalent to the size of the Dolar Shop charcoal cone. Overall, a disappointing experience. read more

Tsujiri has a long history. One of the many shops that I have tried and would recommend. It is located inside the Metrotown shopping center, in front of the Canadian superstore. If you want to get mostly soft server, order the plain soft serve in a cone rather than any other menu items. read more

I love anything black sesame so was thirsty and wanted to try their black sesame latte as never thought a latte would be double digits after charging extra for oat milk but it's ok, shldve known the matcha is overpowering the black sesame which was very subtle but glad it's not too sweet but would not repeat as it was not worth it and did not enjoy it. read more

Tsujiri is located on the ground level of Metro across RCSS. A nice and cozy little space with super friendly and attentive staff. The menu isn't expansive because it's a matcha cafe that specializes in matcha (duh!) with drinks + soft serve as the main attraction. Ordered the yuzu matcha and o-matcha latte. Don't drink matcha often but really enjoyed it! Only gripe is that it's quite pricey for a small cup! Will definitely be back for ice cream in the summer though. BTW, Tsujiri is a pretty popular chain in Japan. It's obviously much affordable there but you always have to factor in plane tickets. =P read more

Fast and friendly service. It's a small little pop up shop, so you won't find any of the baked goods like you would in the regular stores, but they still serve an array of beverages, along with parfaits and shaved ice. The quality and taste of your order is consistent with their regular store. No seating available, so you get whatever you order to go, or find a nearby bench to sit down on. read more

I passed by Tsujiri when I was in Osaka couple times. I know in Calgary they are located there as well. I wanted to try Tsujiri. Right now there are 2 locations in BC. One is at Metrotown and the other is in Richmond. Only difference is that the one in Richmond is a sit down restaurant. The options are very different and of course the prices are double the Metrotown location. I came here with B after running some errands. I got the Matcha Macaroon Parfait and B go the Asuki Matcha Latte (hot). Portion size looked small for the price that they are charging. But it is in fact that they use quality ingredients. I can taste the matcha in my parfait. B's drink was not bad. It was bitter at first and then you can taste the strong matcha taste afterward. My parfait had 1 macaroon, 2 mochi squares, corn flake in the middle, red beans at the bottom and Yes of course..... Matcha ice cream on top. The two items came to $17.33. It is definitely pricy for the amount we are getting. read more

We've been to the Richmond location a few times and this is our second time here at their small shop in Metrotown mall. There is no space for seating but you are able to order for takeaway. Last time we got their black sesame latte and this time we got their hojicha latte and both were delicious. It is a little hot when they first make it so you do have to let it cool down for a bit first. I can't wait for summer to have their parfaits again! read more

Matcha lovers dream! I've been wanting to try this place for a while now. You Can literally smell the delicious tea standing infront of the shop. We tried the matcha panna cotta and then shaved ice with matcha soft serve. Their matcha soft serve isn't super sweet which makes it feel like a nice light dessert. Combined with the shaved ice makes it feel even lighter. I really enjoyed it. It tasted better and better with every bite. The panna cotta was quite nice as well super creamy. I definitely want to try the hojicha soft serve next time. read more

I waited almost 2 months for this! This is a pop up store but I believe they are staying for at least 6 months. There are only drinks and parfaits at this location. It took over the old Sweet Jesus spot across Superstore. At today's opening, the line wasn't bad at all and it moves quite fast. I love their matcha ice cream. I personally find that Tsujiri has a stronger and deeper matcha flavor than Nana Green Tea. There are no seating area. They do take credit card and the staff are super friendly. Worth a try. read more

Finally got to make a quick visit here to try out the newly opened Tsujiri in Burnaby! The shop was small with no sitting area but you can easily find a corner of bench around the mall to enjoy the ice cream and drinks quickly! And trust me you will finish it up real quick cause it is that good! We ordered they Houjicha Float with Matcha ice cream and the Shiratama Parfait! And both were sooo good!!! The ice cream and the drink has a such a strong Houjicha and Matcha flavour! The wait was not too bad at all! We had a line up ordering and waiting for an order but took about 15 min overall! If you like matcha you'll love this place!! read more

I ordered a matcha soft serve cone for $6.50. Be warned, the soft serve is very soft!! I tried to let my child lick the cone when he was in the stroller and the soft serve fell out of the cone and into him! We were able to ask for a cup to get the soft serve into the cup. The person helping us mentioned it has happened before to other customers. The soft serve tasted amazing with a strong matcha taste. Definitely, it was some great quantity matcha. I would never buy a cone again if I plan to share it. read more

- houjicha + yuzu = $4.25 + 0.50 - 《Chungry Rating = 9/10》 Could use a refreshing cup of iced tea right about now!! My girlfriend and I were parched after shopping around Metrotown, so we stopped by Tsujiri for a drink. Their Metrotown location offers a different menu than it's Richmond location, focusing more on drink and matcha soft serve options. The selection has a wide range of their signature teas, lattes, floats, and parfaits! I love houjicha for its darker, roasted tea flavour, so I normally drink it as is. This time we switched it up and added yuzu to it. It turned out to be a great call, because the citrusy sweetness and tartness from the yuzu pieces made the tea even more refreshing! That being said, if the yuzu was a little less sweet, the balance would have been perfect Overall, Tsujiri at Metrotown was great for a quick drink and their friendly staff made the visit even more enjoyable! read more

What I ordered: Brown Sugar Jelly Parfait (Matcha - $9.50) Over the past few years, there have been various green tea giants that have come to Vancouver, one of them being Tsujiri. I haven't been to the bigger store in Richmond yet, but I got a chance to go to the pop-up store in Metrotown last night. Going into this I wasn't too hyped about it because I had heard lots of mixed reviews about this place, given the pricing and portion ratio. My friend and I grabbed the Brown Sugar Jelly Parfait (Matcha flavour). It came with a light cracker, layers of creamy matcha ice cream, layers of corn flakes and brown sugar jelly. The matcha ice cream was surprisingly creamy, but not overly sweet. The corn flakes I gotta say, were such a delightfully crunchy addition (who knew corn flakes could be so good). The brown sugar jelly themselves were a bit underwhelming but overall, this parfait was pretty good. Was it worth $9.50? Hmm...debatable read more

Tsujiri Metrotown - a hand holding a cup of ice cream - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Burnaby, British Columbia

I saw an ad for this pop-up in the mall the other day at lunch and had to stop by. Its tucked behind the superstore and can be a little hard to find, but its worth the search. The staff is friendly & helpful, and the matcha is good quality and quite fragrant. Its a little pricey for most things, just a shot of matcha is $5.50, a latte is ~$7, but their desserts are great, and better value. We ordered the parfait which has chestnut, red bean, matcha ice cream and mochi as well as a drizze of brown sugar syrup. From a value/price standpoint, this was the standout winner for me.

I hate giving one star reviews but for a store that specializes in Matcha it was one of the worst matcha drinks I've ever had; maybe it was spoiled, but the matcha flavor tasted cheap and like fake vanilla and sewer water. The desserts look pretty but the cake had an awful dry texture. Ice cream was fine but not as good as it should be for again, a store that claims to specialize in Matcha and Hojicha. read more

Yuuuuum. Dango that's not overly sweet. STRONG o-matcha, the way it should be (ahem, maybe those "trendy" matcha shops should take note). The iced hojicha and genmaicha were also flavorful and refreshing in the summer heat. A great addition to Metrotown. I only wished they had dairy alternatives! read more

Matcha dessert lovers this is literally your calling!! If you want to splurge on quality matcha desserts this is the place to go! The matcha soft serve here is so heavenly and rich of matcha flavour. I like want to shed a tear every time I get my tsujiri fix because it's that good. My go to is always the floats but the drinks are really good as well. The cheese cakes are also top notchService is pretty quick and attentive. Just by looking at the menu it can be intimidating because of the high price point but it's 100% worth it with the quality of matcha you're getting. I recommend matcha float or the yuzu matcha float with matcha soft serve. You won't regret it! Trust read more

I have had other places' hojicha softserve ice cream and its really nothing compared to tsujiri's hojicha. The flavours and sweetness are spot on! Probably the first time I prefer hojicha over greentea ever! It's also great with the brown sugar syrup as well! Delicious! read more

actually open till 9. yuzu citron with mix matcha hojicha soft serve. refreshing! panna cotta also available and seasonal peach drink

I always like to visit this place to get some matcha soft serve whenever I visit Metrotown because it's always soo good and satisfies my matcha craving. After having sushi for dinner nearby, I decided to drop in to Metrotown for a bit to get the matcha soft serve. I wasn't sure if they were closed, but decided to try and see anyways. When I got there, I saw several people waiting. The cashier/server was very rude, no greeting or acknowlegement, just continued to make the orders. There were 2 other customers in front me, and I was entirely ignored until she finished making the 2 customer's orders. I usually like to get the charcoal matcha soft serve, but I saw the cashier serve the soft serve in the clear plastic cups they usually use for making their parfaits for the first customer before me. It looked very pretty because the soft serve had many large swirls above the cup rim. It made me want to try the cup for once. So I waited patiently and after she finished making the second customer's order, I told her I wanted to try the matcha soft serve in a cup. What I got instead, was a huge disappointment served in a cup. Instead of the transparent parfait cup she had previously used, the matcha soft serve was in the small black paper cup they usually use to serve their hot drinks. Not to mention, the soft serve barely reached past the top of the cup, a very stark difference from what the other customer had been served. No explanation was provided too. Extremely disappointed in the lacking and almost nonexistent customer service, and as well as the lack of consistency and differential treatment. read more

Kinda expensive but really tasty. Dango was good but not worth $4 for the tiny portion size

This was on my list and a few weeks ago Metrotown opened up with selected doors post pandemic look down, these guys were finally open, therefore, I celebrated with a matcha latte ice cream and milk. I did take pictures that are on my Instagram cause they were super photogenic. The prices range from $6 - $10 which seems to be the average for most dessert places. Service was a little slow for two reasons. One there was a line up as everyone was rushing to the mall cause we were all out of our cages as soon as Dr. Henry gave us the go ahead, therefore, dessert nuts wanted to check this place out. 2 there was some coordination with social distance lining up, limited areas to eat and then picking up your order while trying not to bump into other shoppers passing by. This is a rarity given the times that we are in. I anticipate that things will go a lot smoother once things are back to normal. All things considering they did amazing at coordinating orders etc. They were limited on the baked goods that day as they were softly opening. read more

I was pretty excited to try this place since both my daughter and I love green tea ice cream. We waited for 15-20min and got the green tea parfait. It was delicious, but at $10 after tax, I thought it was too expensive. There also wasn't that much ice cream, since the middle was filled with corn flakes and the bottom had red beans, which neither I nor my daughter liked. At this price, I won't be buying it again. read more
