2950 Glen Drive, Coquitlam
An impromptu dessert stop after our dinner in Port Coquitlam, we went to Miracle Belgian Waffle Bar to satisfy our sweet tooth. We were greeted with a cute storefront and I was excited to go inside and have some delicious waffles. We were seated in a dim corner. The entry into the restaurant showed cute furniture and dim lighting, but a we walked further into the restaurant the decor quality diminished. The wall was exposed and it was quite dusty. As a group, we shared a matcha frappe, a Green Light waffle (matcha ice cream, red bean topping, and almonds on a Belgian waffle) and a B&W Waffle (vanilla ice cream, Oreo cookie crumbs, chocolate and whipped cream on a Belgian waffle). The waffles were absolutely delicious and incredibly pretty looking, and needless to say we cleared them out pretty fast! The matcha frappe was also delicious, just enough matcha flavour without being too overbearing and too sweet. However, I was disappointed to find that as we drank more of the frappe, we hit a lot of ice chunks, and the drink was not blended enough. However, the biggest turn off for me at Miracle were the plates that we were offered to share our waffles on. As I began to hand out the plates to my family members, the ones at the bottom of the stack were incredibly dirty - filled with unknown crumbs and what looked to be hair - and it made my stomach turn. I had to put them on the table next to us so that I could actually eat the waffles. It's a shame, because the food was delicious, but the service on this end was atrocious.

Waffles are now more than breakfast foods and can be eaten with more than just syrup. Nero Belgian Waffle Bar on Robson Street is a petite little stand with a cozy interior and delicious smells of Belgian and Liege waffles made fresh to order. The waffles from Nero are definitely good ways to treat yourself. With different options and combinations and the choice of toppings either on Belgian or Liege waffles, Warm and fresh waffles with fruit and cool cream and ice cream on top made for a very delicious dessert. Despite it's popularity, Nero only has one waffle bar on Robson, making it very crowded during peak hours. The other little problem with Nero's location is how far away it is from the skytrain, so it's a bit of a walk if you don't want to get on the bus. When Eleanor and I went, we definitely lucked out and got a place to sit down and thoroughly enjoy our waffles. Even with the long waits, I have been told many times before that Nero Belgian Waffle Bar is definitely worth it, and I'm here to affirm that and definitely encourage other people to go check it out! 6888 Royal Oak Avenue, Burnaby
Located just a 3 minute walk from Royal Oak skytrain station in Burnaby, Ki Tea House and Cafe sits next to small cafe and is by far the cutest things on this block. With it's sweet and minimalist interior and a love for all things anime, what drew me in was the sweet smell of pastries and waffles. Similar to that of Belgian waffles, this new phenomenon of waffles as desserts defies the breakfast food. My friend ordered a simple strawberry waffle, which was topped with strawberries, syrup, vanilla ice cream and whipped cream - perfect on a sunny day! Ki Tea House and Cafe offers other waffle flavours, along with little cakes and desserts and bubble tea. A perfect for a little dessert break! |
