Small Eats is a popular spot for authentic Taiwanese snacks and breakfast items, known for its focus on locally sourced ingredients. The restaurant offers a variety of tasty options, including the fan tuan, a warm purple rice roll filled with pickles and goodies, and the dan bing, a savory egg crepe with sprouts. The fan tuan is especially well-made and fluffy, often praised by customers. The menu also features vegetarian options, with almost every item able to be made vegetarian, and popular choices like congee and zhongzi. The bao, particularly pork and mushroom, have been appreciated for their flavor and texture.
Customers note that the food is consistently tasty, but wait times can be at least 30 minutes, especially during busy hours. The restaurant occasionally hosts pop-ups that are worth trying, adding to the diversity of options. Small Eats is located at the Vancouver Farmers Market, which is open year-round, and customers have praised the great ambiance and friendly, upbeat team. The restaurant also has a strong social media presence, with customers encouraged to follow for menu updates and news of special pop-ups.
