Japanese Bakery Beard Papa’s Opens in Austin’s H Mart Food Court | Eater Austin

"Opening Saturday, March 30, 2024, this new H Mart Lakeline food-court bakery brings the chain’s signature cream puffs—light choux pastry shells filled with cream and custard—to Austin’s Lakeline area. Shell flavor options include chocolate eclair, vanilla, s’mores, and churro, with fillings such as vanilla bean, chocolate, and green tea. The menu also features non-puff desserts like crème brûlées, chocolate and ube fondants, and Japanese puddings, along with milk teas (taro, matcha, and brown sugar). Reddit reports the shop is taking over the former Snowy Village Dessert Cafe space inside H Mart. An opening special will give gifts to the first 100 visitors starting at 11 a.m., plus other promotions; regular hours are 11 a.m.–8:30 p.m. Sunday–Thursday and 11 a.m.–9:30 p.m. Friday–Saturday. The brand first opened an Austin location in the Domain in April 2021 and was founded in Japan in 1999 by Yuji Hirota, now operating internationally." - Nadia Chaudhury

We came here and tried two items — the original and the frozen raspberry. The original was soooo good! The sweetness was just right for me, with a great flavor and plenty of creamy puff inside. Compared to that, the raspberry one was a bit too sweet for my taste. After trying the original, I just couldn’t finish it. The flavor itself was nice, but I hope they tone down the sugar a bit. Other than that, keep up the great work! Cheers 🥂

I stopped by on a Sunday afternoon after a bite to eat in the Hmart food court; I was there around 1pm and there was no wait though they did have a sign up saying the green tea flavor was out. I ordered a classic and a creme brûlée and the lovely lady at the counter torched it fresh for me which was unexpected and fun! I had to eat that one right away lol and it was super tasty. The portions were larger than I expected from the photo and made the price more reasonable. The puff was stuffed with custard and the sugar top was lovely and crispy. My only very small complaint was one corner of the puff was a little overcooked but it wasn’t burnt just a bit crunchy. The service was fast and friendly and the puffs were tasty- I think this would make a super fun dessert to bring to a potluck or for someone’s birthday!

Lorena was very friendly, the puffs are very creamy and full size. I forgot you can choose the fillings (vanilla, chocolate or green tea) and unfortunately I was given all vanilla. Still very delicious

Beard Papa’s is conveniently located inside HMart, so we did some grocery shopping first and then stopped by to grab cream puffs before leaving. There was only one person ahead of me, and the wait was short. The cashier was sweet and greeted me with a warm smile. I don’t usually eat cream puffs, but these were pretty good and had just the right level of sweetness. The puffs were also crispy, which I liked since I can’t stand soggy cream puffs. Original Cream Puff: Lightly dusted with powdered sugar and filled with a tasty vanilla bean cream. The filling felt a bit sweeter than the Green Tea Éclair’s, probably because it didn’t have chocolate on top. Green Tea Éclair: The green tea chocolate topping was sweeter than the filling and really good. I was a little bummed that the filling was vanilla instead of green tea, though. Overall, both were tasty and worth grabbing if you’re already at HMart.

We went to Beard Papa's on Saturday afternoon and H-mart was nuts! So many people. No line at beard papa's and due to some prior strategizing, we were ready to order. We got the original with chocolate ice cream inside and it was my favorite of the three. We also got the oreo with vanilla and a creme brulee. I liked the creme brulee more of those two and it seemed to be the favorite of my brother in law, who got to try the non ice cream options. I was a bit disappointed they were out of green tea filling since its what I was looking to most but we'll definitely be back when we do some shopping at h-mart in the future. The service was friendly and I think the same girl was making everything too and it only took the 15 minutes she quoted us. We snuck off and had some amazing friend chicken while we waited. I didn't know I needed cream puffs in my life but now I do.

Scrumptious! We enjoyed both custard and ice cream filled options of the giant cream puffs. Perfect treat, not too sweet but a decadently presented dessert! Lorena was so kind and patient and gladly helped us with our decisions. Always an extra great experience when we get to interact with happy and professional team members :). THANK YOU 😊!!

Picked up some cream puffs to go for a small gathering. Arrived right when they opened, so waited a few minutes for some to come out fresh. Service was very friendly and helpful. Ordered a variety of flavors from original, mango, ube, strawberry, and chocolate. Although didn't eat them until about an hour later, they were still very crispy on the outside. I enjoyed all the icings on the top as they didn't taste artificial. However, my favorite was the original. It allows you to taste the pastry and cream without being distracted by the flavored icings.

It's nice that they have a Beard Papa's here in HMart! I got the Oreo and Cap n Crunch. Super yummy. A little pricy but it's a good treat.
