Golden Flower Cafe

the food at this café is nothing special, but the worse is the owner, she is very very impolite to customer, i asked her something, she just keep yelling me and answered something i really don’t understand. I really have no idea why should I to be treated like this, I don’t think it’s not the only Café in Richmond Hill area.
If you are looking for challenge, then go for it. but if you are looking for something like normal with base service, then don’t go to this café.

This one definitely gets lots in the abundance of HK Style restos in the Markham area. Prices and portions don’t quite align. I find their dishes a little smaller than most places even though their prices are very typical.
I’ve been here on several occassions but don’t really have any fond memories of anything that stood out. The food is alright but there are many better options in the area.
Their milktea/​lemon tea is also… meh.
Visit if you are extremely desperate.

Another weekend, another HK style café to try. Golden Flower is a good choice if you want something pretty cheap and fast.
Pros:
Food comes out fast
Friendly service
Cons:
Portions are smaller than others
We came on a Sunday morning. I was always told this place is very busy on weekend mornings. The place wasn’t too buys when I came and was about the same when I left. I notice outside that the supermarket in the plaza has closed down. Perhaps business took a hit with the supermarket not being there anymore. It does make it easier to get a seat though.
We ordered the French Toast and noodle. Both were off the breakfast special menu. We also ordered a toast for my little one. The lady was nice to charge us a little less for the toast because we didn’t need a drink for that. The specials all come with a drink included in the price so that was something nice for them to do.
The food came out lightning quick. We were eating within 5 minutes of ordering. You get what you pay for here. The prices here are pretty good, but the portions are smaller than what other places give you. The french toast was made with thin sliced bread, not the thicker brick-​like toast I’m more accustomed to at other HK style cafes. When my noodle came out, I remember it was beef brisket, fish ball and another type of ball. I couldn’t discern what it was though. It was like mystery meat. Overall, the food is good for the price, it’s nothing to write home about though.
Golden Flower is a nice little place to go to. They offer a solid menu and pretty good prices. The service is great and there’s no reason why I wouldn’t go back if I’m looking for something cheap.

Been here a few times before usually for afternoon tea though.
They’re afternoon tea selections fairly wide starts from 2:30pm — 5pm. Portions are pretty filling as per one serving and it comes with a hot drink, cold drinks are extra cost ($ 0.50 — $ 0.75 more) *don’t remember on the top of my head*
This time I came to try their breakfast menu. Breakfast are offered from 8am — 11am. A wide selection as well, most items comes with toast and a hot drink, cold drinks are extra cost. You can choose from simple items such as just butter on toast, eggs with toast, noodles, oatmeal, chicken, pork cutlet and even steak. Price ranges from approx. $ 4 — $ 7, which is pretty fair for breakfast.
It’s a small place which fills up pretty fast but if you were to wait for a table, it doesn’t take too long either because people come and eat then they’re out. They have enough servers working at all times thus the turn over rate is fast.
Don’t expect great service because it’s just an eat and go, fast pace café.
Don’t have high expectations on food either, it’s not the best but fair enough for the price you’re paying and the quality of food you are getting.
Come here to try it out if you’re looking for something with a low budget that will make you full because you don’t feel like cooking and cleaning at home.

This is a HK-​based café who’s owners take very random breaks.
Overall, my fam LOVES this place — this is besides finding a rock in a noodle soup before.
I’m not sure why but every time I eat here I feel slightly nauseous. The quality and the portions aren’t bad — I’m not sure if they use MSG but when I try their gravy (with chicken/​seafood/​steak) I feel like I should never eat again for about 20 minutes.
HOWEVER,
My fam comes here every weekend when possible & the drinks aren’t bad.
It is a very small restaurant and the lady owner likes to screech a lot.
& parking is Asian-​aggressive.

Perhaps I am biased because I’ve been coming here since I was a small child but I love this place. In my opinion, you are not a true Richmond Hill HK-​er if you haven’t been here at least once.
Portions can be small but you’re paying 5 bucks for a bowl of noodles, so you can’t complain. I love the iced lemon tea here — some places just don’t do it right. I’ve made a convert out of my boyfriend, who now also adores this place. Nothing you get here will be bad. The only thing I will say is that their HK-​style french toast is quite thin relative to other cha chaang tengs.
I get that the lady-​boss of this café can be quite loud. However, I’ve known her since I was really really young and she’s as sweet as they come if you get to know her. And everyone’s super friendly!

This place has improved since renovation. It’s more cleaner and the service is better. The food is average but it’s good. The price is fair. I give 3 ½ star for here.

You can’t expect crazy good service here, and it almost feels like you’re in a supermarket because of the owner or manager lady that works there, she is just super loud.
Food is descent and prices are cheap, I always visit her for their tomato broth ham and egg with vermicelli in soup. Drinks are well made HK style.
Food is also served quickly to the table.

I miss this place. There are the regular morning customers and the solid breakfasts. My family goes so often that they’ve memorized our regular choices.
Now that I live in Cali, I really miss this place. This is really comfort food for me. Every time my husband and I visit Toronto, we definitely come here for at least one breakfast. I get my wonton noodle soup for breakfast or the ham, egg, macaroni and he gets the beef brisket soup.

Came there sometime! Food portion small and taste just OK and also not using a meat !! Inside the restaurant, a lady too loudy and always make me uncomfortable !! Other waitress also just OK not really friendy!

It is a Hong Kong style café. If you want quick service, fast food and cheap prices, here it is. The restaurant is packed for a weekend lunch. The lunch special includes appetizer, entrée and a drink. If not, you can order noodle, sandwiches or rice a la carte. The food quality is average. What can you say about a fast food restaurant to fill you up

This place is hopping on the weekends — especially in the mornings during the weekends.
The place is cheap for lunch and is a great no frills cha chan tang too. Their milk tea isn’t bad — nice and strong without being too strong to give me the caffine backlash that I usually get when I order milk tea.
The breakfast menu is pretty solid — I recommend their satay beef macaroni soup; which comes with toast and a drink — total meal works out to be under $ 10 including tax and tip.
They have another menu after 11:30 — I like their chicken steak noodle soup — which is served like Japanse Ramen style or their Satay beef sandwich.
Service is a bit hurried — but friendly at the same time.
Now if I can get my butt up more often for breakfast — I’d walk myself here for my meal.

Love this place. Gets pretty crowded on weekends around peak asian eating times (12:30pm — 2:00pm). But tables clear fairly quickly. Best café food in Richmond Hill by far.
My only gripe is that parking here on weekends is impossible. The café shares a very small parking lot with another café, a super market, and numerous hair stylist. There is absolutely no parking in this plaza on weekends.

Golden Flower Café is one of the numerous Hong Kong Style Cafes in the Richmond Hill area.
I think eating at Hong Kong Style Cafes so much do make me cheap and so value concisous!
Such a good place for late lunch or early afternoon tea because their afternoon tea specials ($ 3.50 and up) starts at 2 pm over 20 items to pick from.
My Fish Ball Noodles with drink ($ 3.99) is A-​OK! Right portion to fill me up but not stuffing me full. Just wish they put in some veggie in the soup then it will be perfect!
The ladies working here are all nice and cheerful, seems like there are a lot of regulars coming here.
CASH only!
