Snowy Village Dessert Cafe

Snowy Village in Richmond continues to deliver, especially when it comes to their mango. The mango bingsu has never let me down - consistently fresh, sweet, and generous in portion. The shaved ice is light and fluffy, the toppings are balanced, and everything comes together perfectly without feeling too heavy. Service is quick (sometimes slower when busy), the portions are great for sharing, and it’s one of those spots you can always count on for a satisfying dessert fix.

Price is cheap, taste is mediocre, worn down store overall, you can try it if there is no wait.

There's a female staff that's been there for years. She works with a giant oversized t-shirt and clip in her hair. She makes the best dessert and always adds a lot of toppings on the milk shaved ice. She's efficient and generous in how she makes the shaved ice. I have had other staff make the same dessert at this location and it's not as good. Definitely will come back only when she's here to make the large shaved ice desserts.

She told me the mango yogurt shaved ice is more sour than the regular mango shaved ice which has condensed milk. Loved the recommendation for the regular one, since we do prefer sweet over sour. Mangos were off season so some were not as sweet as others, buy paired with the condensed milk and mango puree it tastes so good.

One large is good for 4 people. Only extra $3 to upsize from a regular to a large, but you get a lot more shaved ice. The shaved ice already has milk base flavour so it's great even if you run out of condensed milk or puree.

Very Delicious Taiyaki! It’t got a crispy croissant like texture on the outside, nice and soft on the inside with 8 different types of filling you can choose from. Made to order, so they are always fresh and hot. Mango Bingsu is yummy as well, but more people need to know about their Taiyaki :))

Best bingsoo in Vancouver. The fruits are always fresh and sweet. However the food does take a while to be made.

Good food.

Very mid place altogether! Service was great, but the bingsu itself was not the best. It looked good from the start, but the bingsu didn't have any condensed milk/syrup or some sort of liquid layered into each layer of shaved ice so nothing really meshed together well or melted into each other to make more of a slushy consistency. We had a strawberry and oreo bingsu with whip cream. The oreo had no syrup or anything on it. Just oreo and the ice - that's it. Strawberry had condensed syrup on top of the fruit, but definitely not enough for how big it was or throughout the whole thing. It was kind of dry?

Very bad taste! All ice in the bowl, no any milk or yogurt smoothie, just ice! Not going anymore

Bingsu here doesn’t taste as good as another place we try.
Weekend quite busy we suggest more staff working because we wait 30 min for foods after ordering

They literally only have 2 or 3 drinks here to choose from and they're all variations of black or green iced tea.
Also, the mango snowy thing I ordered was very tasty but I thought being given this amount of nice high quality product*, it was just simply poorly executed.
*I could really taste the sweet ripeness of the mango pulp that was used to create the mango snowy ice.
I couldn't really understand why someone would want to eat that amount of food snowy ice in one sitting even if it did taste like mango and had a nice texture I did pay close to $20 for a desert that barely contained any actual mango fruit, there was barely any mango on top and that was the part I was looking forward to the most.
All in all, I would try this again but I would get a different flavor in a smaller size.

It was ok, not busy at all when we came, although the food took a while for some reason. Everything was nice, love the harry potter touch in the bathroom ⚡️

Always incredible, owners always ready to serve. Just a legend, I brought my grandmother there after her birthday lunch. We arrive over an hour before they open and they still served us. They didn't see even know we were celebrating. Cheers to the stop that always hits.

The desserts here was really tasty and I really enjoyed it. It was the perfect size and sweetness. Only 1 star just because I had to wait 40 minutes for 2 desserts, there were many others too. This isn't the workers fault I feel like the owner should hire a 3rd worker on a busy Saturday night, would otherwise be 5 stars for me.

goated bingsoo. massive portions for price

Excellent bingsu with fresh cut fruit!
