Very soft and delicious pancakes. The presentation seems to be good and very tempting to try. I think it’s little expensive, may be they should make the size of pancakes littler bigger. Overall it’s a must try

Excellent pancakes and coffee. Croffle was very good with thick bacon. Nice atmosphere but will be difficult to find a table at lunch.

Delicious pancakes and such a small, bustling spot! It’s always busy with customers, but still a great place to enjoy a sweet treat. You might have to wait a bit for the pancakes, but they’re totally worth it—so fluffy and full of flavor.

Our family was in town for a tournament and stopped by here and was blown away. We had a bit of everything - pancakes, croffles, sandwiches and it was all delicious! The pancakes were obviously the stand out item. I would recommend the creme brulee or strawberry pancake. Worth a stop. Highly recommended!

This is a great spot to grab something sweet or savory, more so on sweet side. It's very relaxing and laid-back environment. You have to order and pay first and they bring the dishes to your table. We ordered the Creme Brulee pancakes and a vegetarian savory dish. Both were delicious, the creme brulee sauce was very delicious, not over-o or under sweet. Their vanilla ice-cream was probably one of the best I had in recent times. The chocolate roll cake was good but the sponge could have been little more softer. Not sure if they make them at their location or elsewhere. The chocolate filling lacked little bit of texture, wasn't as soft as I expected but still had nice taste to it. Service: 5/5 Food: 5/5 It's worth visiting their branches just for the pancakes. Those giggly pancakes are always fun to try.

Loved my experience at Fuwa Fuwa! The pancake was so fluffy and delicious, and the waffles were just as good. Everything tasted great (soft, light, and super yummy), just the way I like it. Definitely going back again!

Had a really yummy coffee and BELT (bacon, eggs, tomato, lettuce) croffle here. They made it using fresh croissant dough that was cooked in a waffle maker, hence the “croffle” fusion that was crispy on the outside and buttery soft on the inside. There was a good amount of fillings and a side of potato chips, which I thought was good value. The coffee was a delicious roast, nicely balanced flavour, quality milk and creamy, airy texture for cappuccino. Good amount of seating indoors available and pleasant staff. They also have a selection of macaroons, roll cream cake, ‘basque’ burnt cheesecake, and of course their signature souffle Japanese style pancakes that I will try next time. Worth a visit if you’re in the area!
