I bought a puff and tried to eat it inside, but the staff told me, “You can’t eat inside the store.” It’s honestly confusing how a dessert shop doesn’t allow customers to eat what they just bought. I was standing off to the side and not in anyone’s way.

Got the chocolate eclair with vanilla filling and a plain puff with green tea. They tasted ok but were stale and overall their quality below expectation. Shop also smelt very strange and musky.

A very good Dubai chocolate puff. I wouldn’t eat them everyday but a great treat every now and then.

This was my second time coming to this Beard Papas. The first time was at a different location and it was amazing. I came here and immediately noticed that the door was broken badly which I find very unprofessional and ghetto. You would think that being a business you would want to get it fixed. The staff (2 women) were unfriendly as no one coming in was greeted, which is something you would expect. I waited for about 10 minutes until I got helped.
There was an awful smell as well as not friendly environment. You can tell that the people working here hate their job because the minute you walk through the doors, the vibe is off. Because it smelled so bad and I was waiting super long to get help, I almost walked out. As far as the food quality itself, I was highly dissatisfied considering my first time trying it in another location was amazing. The cream puff was terrible, as the dough was super hard and burnt. You can tell that they weren’t fresh and probably have been sitting there all day. The vanilla filling was also terrible. I know not to go to this location ever again. I wouldn’t even come here for free cream puffs that’s how terrible it tasted. I will stick to going to the one in Chinatown for better quality and service.

Review is for food only. Not store or service. Heard good things about Beard Papas snackies .
Since I happened to be in Old Town Pasadena, and discovered there was one. It's not on the main strip so I almost missed it.
Food: Cream puff (original) - this was the item that I wanted to try out since it's their main seller. I expected the puff to be softer with a crunchy outer shell but it was harder than I expected. It was delicious though. The cream is slightly sweet which I like. I hate super sweet cream. Honey butter puff - the second item I tried. Not a bad combo, but original still is better.
There are more flavors but I wanted to try the puffs as they are and not too overloaded with macha, chocolate, etc.. flavors.
Repeat: only for the original puff with the vanilla filling (original filling). It is pricey but once in a while is ok.

It was difficult to speak with staff and order with plexiglass and other clutter in the way. Food is to-go only and the fillings come out on your fingers when eating but no napkins were included in the bag.
The eclairs were good and felt reasonably priced, but with the frustrating service quality I probably won't bother returning.

I was very happy to find this location in Pasadena but was left upset. I have never had a staff member tell me I can't eat inside. Wait, is this not a store that sells food? I understand it has a sign that says limited capacity, but there were only four of us ( Including the other clients ). It wasn't packed at all! Never returning to this location ?
I bought a puff and tried to eat it inside the store, but was told by the staff that “can’t eat inside the store” a store that sells desserts does not allow customers to eat it inside the store (I was standing, not obstructing other customers,)

Upon entering I expected to be overwhelmed with fresh smells of baked goods, I was not. Nor was I greeted by a server person. It took a few minutes to be acknowledged and she was not helpful in her description of the pastry’s. I almost walked out, glad I did not the pastry’s crème puffs were amazing! I think they were day old but still very tasty.

Love this local. Of course their cream puff is amazing good. Additionally whenever I go here, the tall white girl and guy employees, they’re so kind and thoughtful ?
