Cream Pony

Nestled discreetly around back in the cozy alleyway at B2 111 1st Street East on Lolo Lane in North Vancouver, Cream Pony is a charming and slightly hidden gem that perfectly blends the indulgent pleasures of a donut shop with the savory satisfaction of a fried chicken takeaway. This unique fusion spot invites locals and visitors alike into a world where sweet meets spicy, crispy meets soft, and comfort food is reinvented with a bold, playful twist.

At Cream Pony, the culinary experience is centered on two standout cravings: irresistibly soft, fresh donuts and mouthwatering Cajun-style fried chicken sandwiches. Their assorted selection of doughnuts offers irresistible varieties such as the classic glazed donut with a perfectly shiny and delicate sweetness, the rich Chocolate Dip Donut, the zesty Lemon Cake Donut, and the indulgent Chicken Foot Donut—an inventive nod to combining their famous fried chicken with doughnut artistry. Customers rave about the Chicken Foot Doughnut, a genius creation that harmonizes the salty, juicy crunch of their fried chicken with a lightly sweetened doughnut, evoking moments reminiscent of chicken and waffles but with a creative spin you won’t find anywhere else.

The fried chicken sandwiches steal the show with their bright Cajun spices, tender and juicy chicken encased in a light, crisp batter, all nestled inside perfectly soft potato buns. Signature offerings like the OG Fried Chicken Sandwich, Chipotle Chicken, and the Classic Chicken Sandwich deliver layers of smoky, spicy, and tangy flavors that dance on your palate with every bite. The house specialty sandwiches—particularly the Cajun Chicken and OG Sandwich—showcase just how expertly Cream Pony balances seasoning and texture, from the crunchy exterior of the chicken to the fresh, flavorful accompaniments within. Fans champion the heat and boldness of the Hot Nash variant, a fiery treat for those craving a spicy kick.

For sides, Cream Pony adds the perfect complements to your meal: crispy tots providing that crave-worthy crunch, the refreshingly tangy Cowboy Caesar loaded with fried capers and pickled onions, and the delightfully addictive Deep Fried Pickles, battered and fried to golden perfection. The thoughtful drink menu featuring Homemade Lemonade and Sweet Tea rounds out the meal with refreshing balance.

The dining atmosphere echoes the duality of this concept perfectly—intimate, welcoming, and filled with character. With limited seating for about 10 guests, it’s the kind of place where you come for a fast yet fulfilling bite, yet linger to soak in the friendly vibes and aesthetic touches that make it feel like a hidden neighborhood secret. While its alleyway location might present a fun little treasure hunt for first-timers, the payoff is undeniable once you’re settled in and the first bite hits your taste buds.

Feedback from patrons highlights the authenticity and passion behind each dish. Daniel Serrano captured the magic perfectly: “An absolutely delicious glazed donut with a perfectly fried, juicy, crunchy Cajun style chicken... a symphony of love in the portable style of chicken and waffles.” Meanwhile, Lisa Lebans praises the generous sandwich portions and unique spice blends that keep her coming back, and Jeff Jay points out the melt-away tenderness of the chicken paired with the comfortingly simple yet satisfying burger construction.

Cream Pony is more than just a place to grab a quick bite—it’s where culinary creativity meets heartfelt Southern-inspired comfort food. It’s where the humble doughnut and fried chicken sandwich are elevated into artful, crave-worthy treats that delight every sense.

Whether you are a donut lover eager to try innovative, handmade creations or a fried chicken aficionado searching for a new favourite local spot, Cream Pony offers an unforgettable, flavor-packed experience that’s worth navigating a quieter city alley to find.
