As expected
This is a very odd Chinese (I think) import on Oxford Street.
A Beard Papa is a big creme choux bun. It's really popular outside the Uk and this is their first branch over here.
The standard filling is vanilla but they have different options. One is tea which seems very weird and I've not tried it.
Warning, if you don't like sweet things this is not for you as they are intense!

Super Cute Cream Puffs!

Above expectations
I love this place it is the most random thing ever, yet it is so damn yummy!
Beard Papa's is a cafe/bakery type place in the thick of Oxford Street that serves up the best cream puffs ever. It is a fast food/Krispy Creme type establishment (I think) and you can by your cream puffs by the box.
They are similar to profiter rolls, but without the chocolate on top. The choux pastry is baked into cute balls on site and filled with yummy vanilla cream filling before your eyes, it is finished off by hand with a dusting of Castor sugar! You can have chocolate filling, depending on what day of the week it is, the special filling changes each day.
Beard Papa is really big in the USA and I don't think it will be long before it really takes off in the UK. This place is super cute and super yummy!
