Bambu Cafe Desserts in Canley Heights serves up a relaxed cafe atmosphere with a distinctly Vietnamese twist, focusing heavily on traditional desserts and a wide range of refreshing drinks. This spot is popular for casual catch-ups, especially during the afternoon and early evening when groups of friends or families come to unwind with something sweet or an inventive tea blend.

Inside, the seating is spacious and comfortable, creating an inviting environment that suits both quick stops for Vietnamese iced coffee and longer visits to enjoy a chilled halo halo or a bowl of bingsu. The friendliness of the staff adds to the easygoing vibe that locals appreciate, along with the steady flow of made-to-order desserts that feel freshly crafted rather than rushed.

The menu offers an interesting array of drinks beyond just coffee, including soursop tea, iced tamarind with pineapple jam, and several citrus-infused lemonades like salted calamansi and yuzu. These drinks complement the playful dessert options such as mixed fruits with ice cream and traditional bánh flan. For those who enjoy tea-based treats, the milk tea varieties—strawberry with rainbow jelly, brown sugar pearls, and taro with milk foam—stand out as flavorful picks that highlight familiar flavors with a twist.

Families with children might find the nearby small playground useful, making it a practical stop for parents wanting a relaxed break. Even on busier weekend nights, the service maintains a friendly pace, which suggests this is a well-oiled local favorite rather than just a fleeting trend.

Whether you're in the mood for something refreshingly tart like their lychee soda or craving the creaminess of an avocado and durian shake, Bambu Cafe Desserts offers enough variety to satisfy those seeking authentic Southeast Asian dessert experiences in a casual, no-fuss setting.

Bambu Café Canley Heights is a total vibe! They’ve got so many drink options—everything from refreshing teas to creative coffee blends—and the ice cream and bingsu are a must-try! The atmosphere is super cozy, and the staff are always friendly and welcoming. Perfect spot to chill with friends or treat yourself to something sweet!

Went on a Saturday night. Got pretty packed as you would expect. Got the avocado/durian shake, the lychee soda and the mixed dessert. Avocado & durian shake tasted great, the halo halo was ok, felt that more toppings were needed. The lychee soda was nice and refreshing although a smidgen sweet. Customer service was good and all food items came out in a decent time (considering how busy it was). Menu items were extensive so theres definitely something for everyone. On par with Cafe Nho in my opinion, however way more menu options.
