Beard Papa's Monterey Park

I came here for the ZZZ collab and was very impressed with the food quality and service. Despite being a very busy day, both employees were so hard-working and efficient, while still being helpful and courteous. They are generous with the cream fillings here (which I love!), and all the flavors we had were delicious - fresh, light, balanced, not too sweet. I would love to visit again. Highly recommend.

Was craving for some late night dessert and this looked very tempting. Ordered chocolate eclair, churro and original with vanilla filling through doordash. We were informed that they were out of churro. When we got the order it was beautifully packaged and there were 6 assorted pieces inside which was a pleasant surprise as we had ordered just 2. Taste was sweet yet balanced which is how we prefer also (not overly sweet). Quantity of filling was also very generous.

Yummy cream puffs! I enjoyed the Oreo one, and they put a generous amount of delicious filling. Nice treat!

I ordered the mix and match of 6 and I got 2 originals, 1 crème brûlée, 1 chocolate, 1 honey and butter, and 1 churro cream puff. They all had a subtle flavor but the ones that stood out to me were the churro and the crème brûlée. I must say if you put the same filling in all of the puffs they will taste the same since like I said they all have a subtle flavor. Nonetheless it’s a nice pastry for the hot weather since the custard is cold ( I thought it was going to be warm which I would have preferred). I also had the milk tea w no sugar and mango smoothie. I liked the smoothie better. Anyway, the workers are really nice, good service :) The atmosphere as in like vibes is lacking and it’s because of the decor. Maybe better lighting and tables/seats that aren’t bulky/awkward would improve the atmosphere.

Fresh delicious cream puffs and they dont skimp on the filling. Talk about going all in.

Mt favorite is original because I'm a simple gal. Love it with tea or coffee to balance the sweetness.

Monterey Park Beard Papas is amazing! They catered cream puffs for our film production, which people really loved! They had incredible communication with us and were so kind.

The Cream puffs are always good. Love it! This review is for their service, I stopped by this location for the first time, and I bought a dozen, Comes out to the total of $44 and I was given a $5 discount for the dozen which was great! And they offered me a stamp card, $10 for each stamp. My bill was $39, I already paid. So I asked If I can purchase another one, so I don’t waste the extra $9 and get an additional stamp. I was told that they cannot do that because the transaction has been complete which I understand, but I think as a business, customers satisfaction is very important, I hope they can be a little bit more flexible with situations like this.

Bad service, food is ok, didn't offer napkins.

Cream puffs from here were so popular before, and I haven't had them in a long time until my brother brought me here and bought a bunch of cream puffs. It was so yummy. For health's sake, I wouldn't eat this too often, but once in a while is ok!

Great cream puffs, we'll be visiting again. My husband liked the hot tea from Taiwan and asked the name so we can buy some for home.

Everything about this place is great. Great menu, amazing service, exceptionally clean, family friendly, parking available behind building. And everything I've ordered is delicious. I've tried all of their pastries and some of their drinks and never been disappointed. Will definitely be back soon.

I went to this Beard Papa's & bought the Mix & Match dozen for around $30, as a replacement for a birthday cake. It was a decision I'm glad I made bc the cream puffs are stable, hold well, portable, & can be baked or airfried to maintain their crispiness. . Most cream puffs sold in bakeries & donut shops are refrigerated & prefilled so the bread is already cold & moist. When I think of cream puffs, Beard Papa's is my standard due to their filling which is a mix of whipped cream & custard, very thick, large amount, & delicious without being too sweet, a proper choux pastry. They only fill the pastry when you order so they're not all mushy & cold. I'd say 2 cons are: they are quite expensive if you are not used to these kind of choux puffs, another 'con' is there's so much cream in each puff, you could easily put it onto another pastry for extra deliciousness. The excess cream can make your eating area quite messy ?.No bathrooms. Seating inside & outside. Free wifi. There are also drinks. Street parking can be difficult, but there's a backlot with lots of parking space.

Parking: Street parking can be difficult to find later in the day, but there is a back lot with lots of spaces.

We had dinner nearby and visited.An older Asian woman was working hard making it and serving customers.It was a system where cream was immediately added to pre-made bread when ordered.Maybe that's why you have to wait if there's a backlog of orders. However, you can wait because you can eat something fresher than buying it pre-made.The dough seemed like they got it frozen from somewhere, probably because it was a franchise.I ordered 6 minis for $7 each.There were 3 matcha and 3 vanilla, but the vanilla was okay to eat.But the matcha had no taste.The color was nice, but it had no scent and it felt like I was eating tasteless cream.It's not cheap as one mini costs over $1, but the taste is just so-so, so I don't think I'll visit again.
