eF & Be Bakehouse (NO store front. Preorder ONLY)

Bought a bunch of their mochi melon pan from the Sakura days fest today and have to say, best decision of the day. Great flavors. Wish they had these in Australia.

I've had a solid selection of both their sweet and savoury baked items, and you can't go wrong with anything from this lovely bakery. I would highly suggest you set an alarm for when they open" their weekly sales and don't miss out!! I would highly recommend their hotel bread (it's so soft

I had their melon bread today at the Japanese festival, I got the vanilla one and my friend got the strawberry mochi one. It was soooo delicious! Im sad because I’m only in vancouver for a few days so I am truly happy that my tastebuds experienced something that good. I hope you all get popular enough to ship it someday.

I couldn't get into ef & Be's breads years ago as I didn't find them flavourful compared to others. However they came a long way. The double baked melon pan I actually didn't think tasted good at all, however the quality of the strawberry melon pan was MUCH better than I remember their melon pans being like. While I wouldn't say they're close to authentic, it was mighty tasty and good quality. I'll have to retry other pan again to give a thumbs up.

We loved everything we tried from here! First, you can tell everything was freshly made earlier that morning! When the buns and cookies arrived, they were still warm! Their matcha mochi melon pan was light and just sweet enough that leaves you wanting a dozen more. The curry beef bun - filling was nice and savoury while the bun itself had a very nice texture and not greasy like other places! And the matcha white chocolate mochi cookie was absolutely delish and had some serious mochi pull! The sesame mochi cookies had wonderfully intense roasted sesame flavour and satisfies your sesame craving with just half a cookie! Potato salad bun was nicely seasoned. They deliver and text you minutes before arrival, so convenient!

I bought this to share with picky people...after toasting the hotel bread with some olive oil margarine and jams for some...all I heard was MMMMMMM....YUMMMM...I do love all thing matcha! Pound cake was tasty, matcha mochi cookie on top bun was explosion of goodness in my mouth. I need to exercise now...but it was so worth it!! Support local! It's delicious! Order online!!

These are too amazing, I don't even know I can describe but they are just too good!

We tried their mochi melon pan buns from the Sakura festival at Van Dusen Gardens, and we were blown away with how delicious they are! The strawberry one was our favorite, there was a perfect amount of mochi and it wasn’t too sweet. We would definitely buy more!

One thing about this whole pandemic thing is that we’ve been keeping an eye out for new take-out options… and what could be better than having freshly baked melonpans delivered right to your door?We fell in love with melonpans during our trips to Japan and, thankfully, we’ve started seeing more and more of these pop up around Vancouver over the past couple of years. eF & Be Bakehouse is an online bakery that specializes in Japanese-style melonpans. You pick your pickup/delivery date and then select your melonpan of choice. Note that the popular flavours sell out quickly so get your order in early so you’re not disappointed.Wanting to try a little bit of everything, I decided to order the Assorted Mini Mochi Melon Pan Box ($22 for 6 mini melonpans). Honestly, this is a great way to try out their different pans. We also grabbed a Ham and Cheese Pan ($4) and their popular Mochieese ($4). The box came with the following:Original Mini Mochi Melon Pan with Dark Chocolate GanacheChocolate Mini Mochi Melon Pan with Dark Chocolate GanacheMatcha Mini Mochi Melon Pan with White Chocolate GanacheCranberry Mini Mochi Melon Pan with White Chocolate GanacheHojicha Mini Mochi Melon Pan with White Chocolate GanacheKinako Mini Mochi Melon Pan with Red Bean PasteFirst off, their savory ham and cheese pan was really good… it reminded me so much of the pastries that we’d eat in Japan. The mini mochi melon pans were all good (best if you heat them up a bit before you eat them) but I think my favs of the bunch were the cranberry, hojicha, and kinako flavours.They also have other bakery items other than melonpans so make sure you try out their other Japanese goodies.

Omg the melon pans... So good. We had the chocolate, original, and matcha. The black sesame mochi cookies are divine. I could not take pics.Try the hotel bread. To die for. So buttery.Pick up is easy, but they also deliver. It's a must.Will order again.
