Came here to kill some time before a hockey game and boy oh boy am I glad we found this little gem! We were a group of 4 and shared a Choco strawberry bingsu and cheese corn pizza. We drank blueberry lemonades, an iced strawberry matcha, and a real fruit grapefruit tea - that's right tea with fresh red grapefruit in it! Everything was made fresh and bursting with flavour. Be prepared to wait a bit here as it does get busy - but it's worth it. The cheese corn pizza is hard to describe - it was hit and miss in our group but enjoyable for sure. The large bingsu was a hit and PLENTY for all of us to share. Can't wait to come back! read more

The space is cute but the tea I ordered felt overpriced for what it was. Also a thing to note that is good to know before going: they do not allow screens besides phones and no "work-related activities". I came in as I was in the area between appointments, saw the good reviews, and wanted to kill time reading my book, but staff came over and said it was not allowed. I noticed them watching me for the remainder of my time there. Upon leaving I saw that they did have signs saying no "work activities" but they are small and easy to miss. read more

Urban Plant Cafe is one of my go to places for Korean shaved ice (bingsu) in YEG. The shaved ice is milk based and is very fluffy to eat. It's lightly shaved so it doesn't taste like chunks of ice. They have lots of different toppings to choose from & is layered inside. Most of them comes with a scoop of ice cream on top. So yummy and refreshing to eat! You can't go wrong with any of the flavours. My fave is the mango bingsu because I love fresh mango. They also have a variety of other desserts and drinks. Also a great place to go if you like plants. Parking: Free customer parking Price: Bingsu ranges from $12-$16.5 read more

This is a lovely spot to relax with friends and enjoy delicious, high-quality bingsu and desserts.

Came here Saturday at 1PM. Place was 20% full. Great display with some of the food items in plastic to see. I already looked at the menu and knew I wanted the Honey Butter Bread but seeing it in plastic I knew it was a good choice. After ordering they give you a disk that will buzz when your order is ready to pickup at the ordering counter. Seat yourself style/no table service. Atmosphere is nice but not as "plant" forward as I expected. Friend and I split the: Honey Butter Bread: 12/10: Sooooo good. Not quite as tall as the plastic demo but more than enough for 2 people. Cashier did say it would be a full 15minutes wait for this and totally worth it. Bread was fresh, soft and soaked in deliciousness. Mango Bingsu: 10/10, thankfully there is a single order as that was More than enough for 2 people. Wasn't just a snow cone (shaved ice) as the shaved ice was milky and creamy. Lots of mango, Mango ice cream on top was decent. Highly recommend. Blue Milkis: tasted like blue Gatorade. Not milky. Got 2 macaroons but ended up giving mine to another friend later in the day. Friend got a iced latte and it tasted like boring coffee. Overall REALLY great afternoon snack food here! Drinks were meh but maybe just our poor choices. read more

I used to come here often when they used to be Let Eat Snow, and I'm happy to see they've kept their bingsu menu but expanded their options and updated their interior with many many cute plants! It's a very aesthetic, modern atmosphere in there and a great place for a (very) mini photo session as they have decorated walls with hanging plants. Many of their plants are also for sale - we did see a few customers specifically visit just to purchase their flora. Finding parking here was very difficult, as they are located along a popular Korean strip mall that is usually PACKED. I quite remember the service being mediocre when I came in the past, and I'm sad to report that hasn't improved. The staff at the front rarely wear a smile, and aren't very friendly. Other than that, the place offers a relaxing and almost therapeutic ambience. This time around, we ordered their Brown Sugar Bingsu which resembled a deconstructed milk tea bubble tea. The bingsu tasted like shredded Kirin Milk Tea (which is obviously delicious), and their tapioca was cooked perfectly with the right amount of chewiness. I was worried the chilly bingsu would change the texture of the tapioca, but was happy they held up their texture until we finished our dessert. read more

This place has changed its name to this new one and the inside has changed a bit as there are plants all over the place. Greenery everywhere so it does provide some privacy between tables. This cafe offers a variety of drinks hot and cold along with bingsu, waffles and a new trend, the croffle! One item I thought was interesting is the mochi cheese pizza. They had one on display and I'm very curious how it would taste. We came here after a huge dinner so we only ordered a bingsu to go. There are 2 sizes to choose from and I thought the prices were maybe a dollar cheaper than other bingsu places. They gave us the silver cooler bag filled with ice and it was still perfect once we got it home. We tried the brown sugar one and it was delicious. The kids dug in before I could get a picture, lol! We would definitely order this flavour again, there was lots of tapioca chewy goodness. A prefect dessert on a summer evening! read more

Cute place to get some nice desserts and drinks! The overall ambiance is really peaceful as there's a lot of greenery inside. Service is very quick but keep in mind some items like the croffle might take time to make or just not be available. read more

Well that was different. We stopped in to Urban Plant because we in need of a late lunch and we were nearby. I really didn't know what to expect. When we arrived it was surprising busy. Parking was difficult because there is a Korean grocery store just a few doors down. We did find a place to park though. We wanted to try their sandwiches (there's only two kinds on the menu) but she said that they were out of sandwiches. That's disappointing but it also means that they only keep fresh products. We ordered the corn pizza and two orders of the fruit waffles. Everything was brought to our table and the service was quite nice. My wife enjoyed the corn pizza. It was certainly different. I had the blueberry waffles and cream. It's a unique dish with a nice tart taste to the blueberries. This is quite different to a place we were at yesterday known for fluffy pancakes but no flavour. These waffles were quite good. I'm not certain what they were filled with; it wasn't just whipping cream. Perhaps it was cream and ice-cream or some similar combination. Urban Plant also sells lots of drinks from bubble teas to coffees. I think a few more savory items would be nice additions to the menu. For some strange reason my photo of the waffle didn't turn out which is too bad because it really is something to see. This is a great place to come for something to drink or for a dessert. They are not excessively sweet and that's a good thing. There were many other interesting things on the menu to try out. Hopefully the next time I come here they will have some sandwiches to try out. read more

Went on Sunday did arrive late but was inside a few minutes before 9. We weren't served or greeted right away either. I went to ask a question about the desserts and was told sorry we close at nine I looked at my phone. It said 9 o'clock. I was told they were closed since I was in inside already should've been served. Parking lot is very busy. read more

I really like the snacks and the vibes. Its very cozy and quiet. I come here since it's right next to where I get my haircut and I used to do work here. Unfortunately, for some reason they don't allow you to do schoolwork here anymore. The staff came to my table to tell me to put away my laptop when I pulled it out. I understand if it was a busy day, but I was sitting next to a row of 3 empty tables. I would've gave a perfect score otherwise. read more

We stopped by after dinner for dessert. Super cute interior! You can tell the owners really put some thought into the space/aesthetic. My boyfriend and I decided to share the Mango Bingsu (mango, milk bing, mango ice cream) We opted for the single size which was $11. It was more than enough for the 2 of us to share! It was nice that they had mango ice cream on top! The mango sauce was yummy and the bingsu was refreshing. However, the pieces of mango were kind of weird in texture. Feels like maybe some pieces were cut too close to the core so it was an odd texture. Not a deal breaker though! Overall a good spot to hang out and catch up with friends! read more

Let's eat snow is a cute cozy Korean inspired dessert cafe! Cute and fun interior. Comfortable place to have some desserts and drinks with friends! I ordered the honey butter toast and Italian peach soda. The honey butter toast was okay. It wasn't the best I've had... but not the worst. I think they should have let the toast cool off a bit more before putting the whip cream on top. When I received the toast the whip cream had melted quite a bit into the toast and made it watery. Flavour is good though. The peach Italian soda was a little to sweet for my liking! I think I will order half sweet the next time I come! Something is recommend trying is the bingsu here. It's really good! I don't have any pictures but I've tried it the other times I came here and it was bombs! read more

This is a neat little place if you want your Bingsu or a Korean waffle or milk tea. The service is good but the space has limited seating.

This is a neat little Cafe with lots of plants throughout the place. They have gluten free, but no gluten+dairy free options for snacks, so i only got a drink. My drink order was made incorrectly at first, but the employee was quick to correct it. Nice little place. read more

Let Eat Snow is still the same great place! Recently they decided to expand their offerings with the addition of Sandwich Box. Sandwich Box offers 8 different sandwiches all created by Chef Jacob Lee of Culinary Team Canada. I was able to sample the Taiwanese Sandwich, Korean BBQ Beef sandwich and the Beef Pastrami. My top pick was the Taiwanese Sandwich ,not only because it was delicious but because it was very unique to me. The Taiwanese Sandwich (Original & Raspberry) seems like a simple sandwich but it is packed with flavor. It is made with fluffy bread, crusts cut off, and is a combination between salty and sweet flavors. The Original sandwich is a combination of salty egg, ham and cheese. While the Raspberry sandwich of course has jam along with cheese and egg (sounds weird but its SO good). I keep dreaming about these sandwiches almost a month later. They're an overload for your senses in the best way possible. My second favorite was the Korean BBQ Beef. Korean bulgogi is always a hit and Sandwich Box has shown that its just as good in a sandwich. You cannot go wrong with this one! The Beef Pastrami was also good as the pastrami is made in house. If you like dijon flavors you'll love this one! I'm happy to see the Let Eat Snow is expanding their menu beyond desserts. The team takes such good care of their restaurant and they really care about the quality of food that they are serving. I'm looking forward to coming back here for both sandwiches and desserts! read more

I've been aching to check one of these places out since they opened in the past year or so, and yum! Since I'm unable to consume bubbly tea (sad face), this is a fantastic Korean tasty summer treat alternative Better than our traditional sno kones, boasting delicious layers of fruit between shaved frozen milk and topped with a scoop of ice cream I thoroughly enjoyed my mango bowl with my friend who ordered a deep friend cinnamon-sugar-apple turnover thing (in the shape of a fish!), which went great with a scoop of mango bingsoo I'm not much of an ice cream fan but these bingsoo bowls are delicious! The cafe is also super cute with great interior decor and little knickknacks, with friendly staff that take the time to make your tasty treats Gotta check em out, bingsoo bowls! read more

The Korean bingsoo craze is in full swing these days. As always is the case in Edmonton, they open at the same time. Mind boggling. Snowy Dessert, Snowy Village, Snow Bear Dessert Café and Let Eat Snow. Yes, that's how it's spelt. LES is probably the least well known one but it shouldn't be. Located in the same plaza as Sambol Sri Lankan and Savoy's, its deep south side but worth the drive. Trust me. They did an amazing job with the decor; exposed brick, hipster light bulbs and a beautiful glittering snowflake mural. It's hip, warm and inviting. Lots of seating and there's a spacious feel to the place. The menu is simple with 6 flavours of bingsoo. They've added bubble bing (bubble tea and bingsoo combined), pizza and a couple new drinks for the upcoming winter. Everything is made fresh to order. Trip #1 First trip was on opening weekend, on a sunny Sunday afternoon. - Oreo choco bing ($10.70) - this was our favourite of the two. Really addictive and love how their is cookie crumbles hidden in the middle. The shaved ice itself is perfect; light, fluffy, creamy and smooth. I have no idea how it doesn't melt either. - Green tea bing ($10.70) - Jboi really liked this one but L and I thought their needed to be more green tea infused into the snow flakes. Trip #2 We dropped in on a Thursday evening (just before they were closing). - Snow bing ($11.50) - this was our favourite second time around. Lots of real strawberries, strawberry jam, ice cream and corn flakes hidden underneath. - Coffee bing ($10.70) - there was also some cocoa puffs hidden underneath. The coffee flavour is subtle, a bit underwhelming to be honest. Trip #3 We dropped in after dinner at Noodle Feast on a late Thursday evening. - Mango bing ($11.50) - all mango everything! This one was tasty and our favourite of the two this trip. Liked how they use fresh mango pieces. - Kong bing ($11.50) - this was my least favourite out of all the bings we tried. If you want injeolmi bingsoo, Hanjan's was much better. - Very berry Belgian waffle ($6.90) - the Belgian waffle was light but crispy and topped with whipped cream and fresh berries. It also comes with a side of ice cream. You'll be fighting over who gets last bite. Yum. Awesome spot to grab Korean dessert on the south side. It's the perfect after dinner treat. Ready for round 4. read more

This place feels huge and cozy at the same time, they did a great job with the decor. It is located two (maybe 3) doors down from Gangnam street food and obviously we had to go here for dessert. It is a weird thing to notice, but I loved how clean and shiny every surface was. They serve every imaginable flavour of shaved ice here and making a decision was hard. We ended up ordering the Oreo and taro flavours in small sizes and a banana cream waffle on the side. The shaved ice was just as delicious as expected and tasted as good as it looked. Their presentation is really top notch and it only adds to the experience. The waffles were a bit small and couldn have been served warmer, especially for their price. The service wasn't the quickest but it wasn't bad enough to dock points for. This is definitely a nice place to hangout at. read more

They had some new items on the menu and I was super excited to see their tea bing drink. It's basically a bubble tea topped with bing and it was delicious. The texture of the tapioca pearls were also really nice and it was cool to have something different since the pearls weren't like all the generic ones. They were irregular shaped (maybe squarish compared to the round ones at all other places) and had the texture of coconut jelly. I wasn't sure if you can adjust the sweetness level but I can see people might find it a bit too sweet. I love sweet things so it was delicious. I tried the earl grey milk tea bing this time but will definitely try the matcha tea bing next time. They also offered free cheesecake topping on the snow bing which was a nice treat. read more

Oh gosh... this place is so good. And we made the mistake of ordering far too many desserts but they were all quite delicious! I think I loved the toast the best, but we also enjoyed the cinnamon croissants and the Oreo bing. Suffice to say, my stomach is very happy and full from so many treats! But I'm happy to have found this place in this area of town and will hopefully visit frequently! A great place for dessert! read more

This place is just adorable, and also delicious; two of my favourite things! Went there with friends after seeing the gorgeous pastel hot chocolate, but ended up getting a green tea bing. I've never had bing before and I regret that. The bing was first of all, presented gorgeously. It took some time from ordering to get it, but clearly everything on it is handmade to order and I am not at all mad about that! The shaved ice milk topped with green tea ice cream and little chocolate crunchies in the middle was ridiculously delicious. It was light on the tongue but so flavourful! It didn't melt as we ate it and the crunchy stuff stayed crusty which must be wizardry! I shared with two friends and would recommend sharing one bing because it is HUGE. I can't wait to go back and try more flavours and some of their other offerings! read more

Oh. My. Gawd. I'd eat snow here again. There's actually a bunch of little Korean restaurants in this side of town, so it makes sense that a Korean dessert cafe pops up in the area. Parking is free all day in this area & it isn't too hard to find a spot depending on time of day. Decor is nice here and gives the cafe a friendly vibe. They have high chairs AND change tables here too! Their menu offerings are the same but slightly different compared to the other 2 bingsoo places I've been to (simpler bingsoo list, but also offers milkshakes and waffles). Unlike the other locations, the bingsoo here is only offered with one size which is like a medium. Staff is super friendly, even moved chairs and tables around so that our crowd of 4 adults & 2 kids sit together. You do have to pick up your order at the counter though, but they did have the foresight to have a empty dish return slot at the counter too. They do take card payment, but not Apple Pay or tap pay. We ordered the Kong, green tea, and snow bing. Least fave was the kong with its red bean paste and mochi. My kids liked the snow because it comes with strawberries. I personally enjoyed the green tea bing, it had a scoop of green tea ice cream, and the ice milk had green tea before it was shaved, plus there was Oreo crumbs and cocoa puff cereal in the bottom (bonus!). The shaved ice is also different here in that it's longer, more like a frosty snow than finer powdered snow if that makes sense. I was a little sad that my snow melted a touch faster than it did at the other places, probably because of the dish being a standard bowl, not like the metal ones at the other locations. But they did give us nice sized empty bowls for sharing. The spoons are super cute too... shaped almost like a tiny shovel, and perfectly sized for spoon feeding a baby. It does look like there was a lot of effort in branding themselves. The serving tray is also a bit smaller too, so it can get a little messier on the table. Overall, I liked the bing, loved the service/ amenities/ decor and that is probably what will keep me coming back. read more

This is my favorite little Korean dessert place in Edmonton. I was lucky enough to be introduced to it by my sister in law and I've been hooked ever since! Recently they have extended their hours, so it's become a cute little hangout spot up to 1030 on weekends! There is lots of parking nearby also! I absolutely recommend all the Bing dishes. It tastes like ice cream.... but feels like snow! The green tea Bing is a personal favorite and my fiance loves the oreo Bing. I Cannot forget the amazing dessert pizza they have which has a mochi rice crust with gorgonzola cheese and honey! It is to die for...... I am also a big fan of all of the hot chocolates especially on a cold winter night. I have only tried one of the bubble tea bings and it's not my favorite; I will likely stick to my favorites. Overall, it's a quaint little dessert place with lots of unique treats to try. Come and hang out here with your friends on a Friday night and try it out! read more

I was pleasantly surprised when I tried this place out. The interior/decor was really cute. It was clean and there was no one else here at the time. The person that took our order was on his phone when we were trying to order and not very welcoming.. no one greeted us when we came inside. However, the desserts spoke for itself. I ordered the chocolate cake and the mango bing. Let's start with the cake, it was rich and decadent... not overly sweet. I really liked it. Next, the mango bing, it was made perfectly. I thought the ice was coconut shavings but was shocked to find out it was the ice. There was just the right amount of toppings to ice ratio. Would definitely come back to try other flavours. read more

I've been here twice already and it really just doesn't get any better than this. I've been having a bingsu craving ever since my trip to Vancouver last summer and have been trying to find a place that matches Vancouver quality and this is it! The interior is super cute and the bingsu are reasonably priced and super delicious. I have a pretty severe nut allergy and they were really accommodating. I've tried the matcha bing and the mango bing. The matcha is my current favorite and you get surprises as you go. The mango bing was also delicious but I will have to try again later in the summer as mangos aren't in season right now and were slightly sour in my bingsu (but hey, it means they use the real stuff!). They also have a variety of other cute snacks and drinks to choose from. I'm definitely going to be frequenting this place and making it my go to place for bingsu! read more

I was skeptical about going for shaved ice when the weather dipped below zero, but I am so glad I went. The desert cafe has a wide selection of Bing (shaved ice desert), pastries, coffee, tea and sweet drinks which are perfect for sharing. I tried the green teas Bing and gladly was able to share between three people. The texture was something I had never before experienced. It was as if there was delicate powder that immediately melted in your mouth. Soft, fluffy, and with some delicious green tea ice cream and cookie crumbles, it is the perfect desert for a date or a night out with friends. read more

It was late Thursday evening when I got a sudden craving for sweets. Thanks to my husband who's always up for anything. We arrived 30minutes before they close the cafe. I'm glad we got on time and they still accommodated us. The ambience was cozy and has modern vintage feels. I love those leather chairs that blends with their cute interior. We ordered 2 bings and was so surprised how it tastes. The toppings were generous and every scoop is so delicious. If I need to vote for the best bingsu place in Edmonton, I would definitely put them on the top! The crafted shaved ice is probably one of the reasons that makes the bings so tasteful. Would surely be back to try their other flavours. read more
