I like pastry cream, so cream puffs are right up my alley. We like the cookie crunch shell because it adds more texture to the pastry. When we visited last weekend, the service was a little slow. The workers looked young (high school?) and were goofing around a bit. It wasn't a big deal, but it could be annoying if you are in a hurry.

Order: Half a dozen Each would have been $4.10 All shells are sort of crumbly and I don't like making a mess so I think I'll pass on shells next time. I only tried the green tea and vanilla fillings for the most part and I think they're about the same. They're not too sweet and have a nice texture. The green tea taste is super subtle. The cream puff itself is perfect. Crispy on the outside, nice and soft on but inside. Strawberry Shortcake Shell with Green Tea Filling -can't really taste the strawberry shortcake shell Green Tea Shell with Vanilla Filling Honey Butter Shell with Vanilla Filling Green Tea Shell with Green Tea Filling Dulce De Leche Shell with Vanilla Filling -surprisingly good. The caramel doesn't overpower anything. Honey Butter Shell with Green Tea Filling Favorite: Honey butter shell with Vanilla filling I just really like honey and the vanilla filling complimented it more than the matcha Service: Nothing too specific to say here. Service was good. There's no seating inside but there is seating outside. The store was nice, warm, and quiet while I waited.

This review is for the mini puffs, 6 for $7 with a few creams to choose from: vanilla matcha chocolate and Oreo mint. We ordered the small ones with vanilla and matcha cream, both flavors were delicious and not too sweet

Beard Papa's never disappoints! Their cream puffs are always fresh and filled w/ your likings right in front of you. My favorite is original w/ chocolate cream. We also tried the chocolate w/ vanilla, and the special valentines flavor w/ vanilla. All delicious! There was a bit of a line, but wasn't quick. Cute shop w/ friendly staff. Plenty of parking in lot.

We were having lunch close by and decided to stop by Beard Papas to grab some cream puffs for dessert. There was a line to order and there were also people waiting for their orders. This Beard Papas is small, but clean. We decided to order a dozen of cream puffs, which we saved $3.00. The total for a dozen with the discount was around $44, which wasn't bad. We ordered a variety of flavors. We ordered the green tea, original, strawberry shortcake, chocolate eclair, cookie crunch, dulce de leche, oreo cookie crumble, and honey butter flavors. Some of the puffs had green tea fillings and some had chocolate fillings. Our favorites were the green tea, oreo cookie crumble with green tea fillings. We wanted to order the creme brulee flavored one, but they were sold out. I guess this will be a good excuse to come back when we crave for cream puffs.

First time in this plaza and was curious by the name. Beard Papa's is a cute little cream puff shop and the workers are friendly. When you order, you have to pick a shell flavor then a filling flavor. I did both green tea for my shell and filling. The cream puff was good and I liked how it wasn't overly sweet, but I would like more green tea taste. The filling reminded me of Pocky's green tea flavor. If I am back in the area, I want to try the cookies & cream shell with vanilla filling.

15+ years; longer than most bakeries. I remember the hype when they first opened. Can smell the egg choux pastry for the shell as you open the door. Original+Vanilla still the most popular. Have to eat it fresh. The moisture from the cream quickly turns the crunchy pastry soggy. Not too sweet. Copied the Japanese flavor exactly. Definitely less sweet than the American style of cake and donut fillings. More like a cream custard than a super sweet topping. Came in for one, left after eating 3. Matcha+Vanilla. Kids were kind enough to let me sample a lemon. Lemon is slightly tangy. Can taste the freshness of the lemon. Like a mild lemon drop candy flavor. Forgot how good they were. Surprised they lasted 15+ years. Kids working there are the best I have seen in any FF place in years. They are a cut above the typical FF worker with angry indifference. I would go back just to go visit them. Good parents. Refreshing to see.
