Review The Brown Spoon - Victoria Park

Budiyono Ong
Just had the watermelon bingsu. Quite nice. The place seems to have changed since few years back. Most likely new management or owner. I notice bingsu also slightly different. Pretty decent. Nice vibe too for hang out. The 2nd time in a week. Ordered their lattes. Black sesame and sweet potato latte. Loved both of them! Also ordered the spores dip set.

This is the first time we went there with friends. Boy their burnt cheesecake is too good. Cappuccino is very good. Brought two other cake slices for kids: cheesecake and chestnut cake. They loved it. Kudos!

The staff are lovely and the food is delicious. We got the tuna melt bagel, the brekky bagel, and then we tried to finish a strawberry and Oreo bingsu but it was way too big after all that bagel! Everything is delicious and well presented. I love it here. We've been ordering to take away from here for a little while now, and that's awesome too.

A really very busy korean dessert cafe. Long queues for tables. Cakes (earl grey & strawberry), watermelon binsu and grape fruit ice ades were just excellent to end the night!

The desserts here are incredible, we loved the mango bingsu and the matcha pudding. They were insanely busy but kept everything moving and provided good service. Will be back before mangos go out of season!
Andy
Absolutely fantastic Korean cafe with bingsu and unique cakes. Had the strawberry and Oreo Bingsu enough for 4 to share. Matcha strawberry cake was also a delight. Very nice atmosphere for a get together and a chat, has got both indoors and outdoors seating. Staff is very friendly and accommodating. Will be back.

My first time here at The Brown Spoon. The place is very cozy and aesthetically pleasing. The front seating area has nice lighting, good for picture taking. The back seating area seems a bit dull but very comfortable.<br/>••• S’Mores Dip Set: It came smaller than I thought. However, it does fill you up. At the start, it looks as if there are too many crackers but, you definitely need to fill up. The marshmallows on top are yum. If you get to the bottom there is a chocolate layer which is just divine.<br/>~~~ Must try: bingsu

Tried their strawberry & mango bingsu. They are both huge & yummy. They are always packed so lucky to get a spot there. Gotta try their other dessert next time.
Unassumed
Always a delight to go there. Unassuming like myself but dishes out desserts that are not overly sweet but nicely presented and absolutely moreish. I am very choosy when it comes to desserts as I don't have sweet tooth but usually my friends all love sweets. In this place everyone is satisfied. Besides the price IS NOT over the top. So it's gentle on my wallet, sugar and my teeth.

Came on a Saturday night 9pm for bingsu, honey toast and drinks.Their iced korean drinks are nice - with the option for sweetness, milk type and ice levels.My drink was super sweet even without sugar add-ons which probably meant the powder mixture had sugar in it.Bingsu had very finely shaved ice. Great texture.Don't order the taiyaki bingsu and the injolmi bingsu together though - they taste the same!

Came by for afternoon sweets before flying out of Perth. <br/><br/>They did have quite a few different options but we ended up trying the watermelon bingsu and the hotteok. We grabbed tables and menus but ordered at the counter.<br/><br/>The bingsu was amazing. Balls of watermelon covered in condensed milk over the shaved milk ice. they also had a watermelon syrup which you could drizzle over everything. The best part was the watermelon ice block on top which really tasted like watermelon. The ice block itself was a really nice dessert. The hotteok was a bit disappointing, thick and bready and the filling wasn't very sweet. It also took about 10 minutes longer to arrive at the table. I would just come here to the bingsu unless you were wanting to try something else.<br/><br/>We were given wooden spoons and paper cups to share the desserts.

Food was good. Service was horrible. Vry dissapointed tbh since was really looking forward to cheesecake bingsu. Ordered a blueberry cheesecake bingsu, server didnt say anything and took the order. Out came a strawberry bingsu. Asked and said they didnt have blueberry. Searched for the cheesecake, and asked again. said they dont do cheesecake bingsu anymore. Could’ve told us in the first place when ordering instead of just taking the order and giving us a completely different thing! Was a fan of this place in the past but service really let me down. Would recommend food not service AT ALL!

Really nice, cozy little cafe with rustic setting and feel. Came here specifically for the honey toast and injeolmi bingsu, very tasty simple honey butter on bread that's crunchy on the outside and soft inside, yummy honey butter melt gives it amazing taste with the whipped cream with some almond flakes? Maybe caramel. Really enjoyed the bingsu as well although injeolmi is not really my thing, would love to try the watermelon bingsu next time we visit again.
Sharondefoodie
Staff are nice and dessert are average. In 2 visits we ordered 4 drinks between us and all of them were so sickeningly sweet they were almost thick with sugar. The hokkeok we had was okay. The honey toast was the only thing I'd come back for.
Joy
One of my favourite cafes of all time. Staff members are excellent along with the food although a bit overpriced sometimes, however portions are quite generous. One of my favourite study spots.
Omnom
Came to this place with a few friends and left unimpressed, one of the staff member got our order wrong, instead of apologising she raised her voice at me saying I gave her the wrong order. Very rude.
Mimi
I went there today with a friend and found this adorable place, nice and quiet, loved the dessert and my cup of tea was delicious, I like it when you have more choices of tea to choose from, apart from the 4 main ones that everyone sells. I really like that I can get a pot of tea instead of just one cup! Excellent and friendly staff!
Mr Robot
Brown Spoon Cafe in Victoria Park provides a similar feel to the cafe's experienced in Korea - a warm, rustic interior decor feel was something note worthy. If you're visiting this place, you're going to want to try all their desserts as they all sound enticing. I shared a delicious Injeolmi toast with my friend, and it was beautifully balanced in sweetness and actually quite filling as it had a glutinous filling. <br/><br/>They are opened fairly late as well, and make an excellent trip to sweeten your night off. I would highly recommend anyone to drop by here.
Comida
Got the honey toast - salted caramel flavour with added ice cream. The toast was very crusty and tasty on its own, the salted caramel inside however was very buttery and not very sweet. It wasn’t my favourite filling but my friend enjoyed it. Would long to return to try some on the other desserts.

Watermelon Bingsu is the bomb! Must try!!!<br/><br/>The toast with matcha ice cream is great when you eat it immediately. Otherwise, you will get a soggy toast!<br/><br/>The waffles was abit too sweet for me. (No photo)<br/><br/>

It's bing-su long since I've had one of these shaved ice desserts 🍧! @BrownSpoon_AU doesn't just serve up ordinary bingsu, their creativity is through the roof!<br/><br/>I finally got my hands on one of these watermelon bingsu 🍉🍧 and couldn't be happier! It was fun to dig in and discover all different textures and flavours of watermelon. The shaved ice had a decent amount of syrup all over and we were given an additional jug of milk 🍶. Watermelon balls were refreshing against the sweetened shaved ice and that watermelon icecream on a stick was simply a milky way to our hearts! I got an extra scoop of matcha icecream 🌱 and its bitterness was a stark yet pleasant contrast to the overall sweetness. Guess you can say they were a matcha made in heaven!

Loved the ambiance of this place, for some reason it felt like I was in Korea. I liked their Japanese green tea and chai latte. Their smores was pretty good too plus you can ask them for more crackers if you run out. However, their hoteok was disappointing and too floury for me. Their bingsu was quite underwhelming but is okay. This place seems like a very nice and cozy place to catch up with friends.

Loved this cute lil place. Ambiance was great, as well as their drinks and desserts. Will definitely be coming back. We ordered Nutella honey brick toast with cream, New York cheesecake, and a pot of Japanese green tea and a pot of earl grey.
Foodbabyiscoming
Wasn't terrible but probably won't return. My husband's ice latte came out with milk still dripping off the side of the cup. Green tea ice cream was bland and icy meaning they had just bought Vanilla ice cream, put green tea powder in (clearly not enough), let it melt too much and then refreezed it.

Korean dessert in Victoria park. I like the wing picture on the wall of the store and a big bear is sitting inside the store. Self serve. Price is reasonable. Staff and service are good.
Carmen
I'm not sure why this place is only getting 2.9 rating, it's definitely better than that. This is my third time here, always busy. Yes you may have to wait a bit for your order to come but for me that's fine. We ordered their hot sweet potato, misugaru and matcha drink and they were fantastic if you like those flavours! $5 each. And we also had their honey toast with honey butter and matcha almond ($10.80), so good! Don't expect too much from the service and you'll be fine. Will definitely come back.

This korean dessert cafe was a bit overrated. Me and my sister went a few times. We had to order at the front counter first and then find a seat. The tables were not clean- they only had 2 staffs working. Waited for ages for them to clean the table. And then, food took quite a while to come. They were not even that busy at that time being the afternoon on a weekday. We ordered a hotteok and a drink - no picture taken. Second time we ordered their mango bingsu and toast. <br/><br/>No doubt the decor is nice and cosy. But they need to improve on customer service as some of their staff are not very friendly. <br/><br/>Their price is considered somewhat pricey for their portion. And drinks if you don’t stir well can be on the bitter side. <br/><br/>But on the whole, nice atmosphere for hanging out
Pris
3.3 rating<br/><br/>not a bad place , i had come here a few times when it first opened but Zomato took ages to get Brown Spoon page on. <br/><br/>the thick toast was ok with a lot of butter (tasty but nothing to shout about) , the watermelon dessert was ok too but i could get the same watermelon popsicles from the store. The sweet potato cake was nice. <br/><br/>A nice ambient place to catch up with friends for a dessert and pet friendly too.
Emz
Not a bad place to hang out. Dog friendmy cafe as they got a bowl of water for the dogs as well. Freshly baked sweet bread - and soft too. Goed so well with them maple syrup and ice cream.Will have to come back to try their bingsu desserts and other food as well.<br/><br/>
LittleM
My friends and I decided to stop by here to try the desserts after seeing the pictures on Instagram. There was a bit of a hiccup with the order and it took a while for the dishes to arrive. Pretty desserts however taste was average.

Small cafe for dessert and coffee. The staffs are friendly and it’s cozy place for hangout with your friends or family. We tried their premium bingsu and it’s turn out really nice especially for summer.
Crazy Cat Lady
I love the decor and ambience of this place. It’s very cute and cosy. <br/><br/>Came here after seeing a lot of instapics about this place. I was really excited to come here for the Bingsu. Ever since I came back from Korea last year I have not stopped thinking about the Bingsu we had over there. <br/><br/>I ordered the matcha Bingsu and again I was a little disappointed that it was yet another icey Bingsu. However despite the Bingsu being a little too icey I still did not mind this one as the flavour was nice. <br/><br/>I personally did not try the matcha toast but according to my 3 other friends who did, they highly recommend it. <br/>
Kudokun
Small but cozy hangout place along Victoria Park. Located right among many other dining place allow Brown Spoon Cafe to be a top destination for dessert / chill-out place after a meal. <br/><br/>BSC is famous for its bingsu and korean bread. I have tried a few different flavour from both range and they are decent. My favorite and recomendation would be the Injeolmi Bingsu. And make sure you add ice cream - it really makes a tremendous difference! <br/><br/>Staffs are polite and friendly. Oh and they have this huge bear in front. Don’t forget to take a selfie with him.
Lady X
Cosy and hip place to hangout with friends! The smores and biscuit dessert was way too sweet for my liking. The watermelon patbingsu was refreshing and I liked the watermelon ice cream that came with it.
Jeffrey Chen
I'm a huge fan of Korean dessert and I really enjoy this place and the atmosphere, not everyone enjoys Korean dessert however if you do this is one of my favourite places
Eunice
The setting and decor of the shop was really good, the bingsus are worth a try if you have never tried before. They even have a cute cupboard for customers to put their loyalty card according to their name initials so that they dont have to remember to bring along with them during their visit. First visit was disappointing due to staff being busy and not even saying a word of welcome when you walked in. 2nd visit was so much better when they paid a lot more attention when it was quiet.
Lamb Pickles
Was super excited about their sweet potato latte and blue lemonade since it's what I've been craving from Syd. I was quite disappointed with the blue lemonade since it tasted so bitter.
B & M
Korean dessert....... simple decor, simple menu, simple taste <br/>Lemon meringue was ok<br/>Mocha was smooth n milky <br/>Green tea ice, ice cream and mochi pretty average , not enough green tea taste
Jade Kim
This cafe does make me feeling like i am in a cafe in Korea.<br/>The atmosphere is nice and cosy. I had a latte which was great. I love dukes coffee so it was really good but i reckon they use bigger mugs than other cafe so the coffee was a bit weak for me. And the mango bingsu and Injeolmi bingsu were so delicious. I asked them if they use fresh mango and they said yes it was really fresh! Loved it because it wasnt too sweet. And the injeolmi bingsu, i am in love with. I went back twice for this and i could eat everyday! I tried injeolmi toast as well and it was dope too..<br/>The korean staffs are really nice as well.<br/>

I am not a huge fan of korean dessert to start with but this place is a lot better than most of the other korean dessert places. For start, they have lunch menu which helps if you’re not really into sweets. We tried the ham, cheese and tomato bagel and bulgogi burger. The portion is rather small but they taste nice. The coffees are good especially the ice coffee and we have been coming back for coffees! Their dessert the pineapple and tiramisu shaved ice or bingsu was so pretty and refreshing at the same time, not too much and not too sweet to share. The soufflé waffle is also quite tasty and fruity, loving the fluffy waffles though. As the weather warms up, I can already see that this place will get visited more often.

Brown spoon was the most happening joint on this side of albany hwy, so naturally we decided to check it out for dessert. We had an injeolmi toast as it was one of the warmer dessert options. It was alright.a bit light on the honey, but that could be based on my slightly sweet palette. The cafe had a very warm inviting and hip decor. I would come back to try some of the aesthetically pleasing bingsus
DforDee
Quirky little cafe. I came by because I saw their desserts on instagram. And it did not disappoint. The mango Bingsu is a great dessert. Nice and sweet served on shaved ice.
Ilovebeansprouts
Simple interior with a cool vibe. Menu and drinks has a Korean-Western fusion twist to them. Have tried their Watermelon and Mango bingsu, which both look very nice and inviting when presented on the table. But their flavours were a bit plain and the ice shavings aren't the finest we've tasted. Souffle waffle has a really nice aroma to it, but could be better if it was lighter and fluffier. They have a small, but good selection of cakes on display as well. Tried the Baileys Cheesecake and found it alright. Drinks menu has interesting variety such as Sweet Potato Latte and Passionfruit Ade with pomelo. Overall, a good place to chill with friends over simple sweet bites and drinks.

found this little gem walking in vic park. cute cafe (korean owned) with some korean desserts and a little breakfast menu. very nice interior, good seating, cute deco and true to a korean cafe theme (coming from someone who lived in korea). service was friendly. i got a bagel and my partner for the honey bread. super yum! and not to mention the pricing is more than reasonable! all up for both breakfasts and 2 coffees was less than $30. happy sunday.
Foodage
What a happy little place this was. Maybe because everyone was there for desserts... could anything derail this eudamonic therapy? Obviously Food is very subjective but I feel overall the Asian influenced desserts but with very traditional European names like Tiramisu and Black Forrest and the list goes on. In the pictures attached there’s a matcha based dessert with ice shavings. Sorry I didn’t get the name but it was pleasant and fresh! They’re known for their beverages like one of my companions had sweet potato latte. I didn’t try it but sounded exotic. Ambience is very appropriate, staff very friendly and menu extensive. <br/>We’ll be back there! <br/>Food- 6 (need to try the rest!)<br/>Ambience- 7<br/>Service- 8
Mr Butterbeer
A cute, quirky cafe! We’ve tried a whole range of desserts here: <br/>Matcha bingsu - Would recommend it, but only if you order the Large. The Small doesn’t come with matcha ice cream which is disappointing. <br/><br/>Salted Caramel Honey Toast - Was definitely yummy. Recommended for sharing and IF you’re into whipped cream! <br/><br/>Injeolmi Toast - Thin slices of toast with mochi in the middle.Slightly too sweet for my liking and nothing spectacular. <br/><br/>Honeydew bingsu - Honeydew balls which came with it was soft and mushy (not great texture). Shaved ice was rather flavourless. Only thing I liked was the honeydew ice cream that came with it. <br/><br/>Tiramisu bingsu - Would recommend this if you’re into coffee! A good strong coffee flavour to the shaved ice.
Foodie In Paradise
This is a new Korean desserts cafe that opened up in Vic park and we were so excited to come and try it out after seeing some of their Instagram pictures. <br/>We tried their watermelon bingsu as it was on a hot day and we were looking for something refreshing. Unfortunately, I think the look is better than it taste. The watermelon bingsu was beautifully presented and came with the watermelon syrup /juice. <br/>Staffs were very friendly. The rating is sorely based on the bingsu that we tried. I will still come back to try out their other dessert another day.

Hands down one of the most aesthetically pleasing cafes in Perth! Tried the green tea bingsu with red bean and mochi, which was really refreshing, but it would have been better if it was sweeter. The souffle pancakes were nice, but quite dense. Overall, this cafe is a lovely addition to Victoria Park, and I will definitely come back to try the other desserts.
Mango The Froot
I've been here a few times. I love their s'mores dip and the fact that you get unlimited crackers is superb ! The Bingsu is just so-so. The shaved ice just doesn't carry as much flavour as I want it to, despite all the creams etc that it comes with. The mango bingsu was awful as the mango was frozen type (tastes like Coles brand) and was not yummy. The cookies and cream cheesecake was scrumptious, and I'm very keen to try the rest of their cake selections.
