TERA PANCAKE HOUSE 寺

TERA is an online-reservation-recommended restaurant. OpenRice carries a full table-booking widget with 30-minute slots from 13:00 to 20:30, with a 10% off a-la-carte / afternoon tea set promotion on most slots at the time of writing. There is also a phone line for those who don’t want to use the app. The shop — Shop 1075, Level 1, YOHO Mall I — is inside a Yuen Long shopping mall, not on a street-facing site: access is via YOHO Mall’s podium or the direct link to Yuen Long MTR Exit H (a 4-minute walk; this is the MTR note OpenRice publishes).

• Walk-ins accepted: yes, but weekends for the soufflé pancake queue are brutal — both the May 2026 reviews flag weekend-afternoon queues.
• Booking channel: OpenRice widget (preferred — 10% promotion applied), phone 2366 9669, or YOHO Mall concierge.
• Lead time: same-day weekday lunch is workable; book 3–7 days ahead for Saturday/Sunday brunch.
• Pet-section hours: the venue opens 11:30–22:00 on weekdays and 11:00–22:00 on weekends / public holidays (11:30–22:00 on public-holiday eves), so any visit falls inside the mall’s opening hours.
• The vibe: minimalist Japanese-woodland interior with cake-cutting service and a partially indoor footprint; the May 2026 reviewers describe “精緻擺盤同溫馨木質環境好啱打卡” (fine plating and a warm wooden feel, easy for IG). Staff are flagged as responsive on the dessert and the savoury items, less so when queues pile up.

• Minimum charge: none reported on OpenRice, the FEHD register, or in reviews.
• Per-dog charge: none reported.
• Pet menu / treats: no dedicated dog menu observed anywhere; YOHO Mall has neighbours with dog menus (e.g. LIFETASTIC Patisserie has dog-friendly cakes in the same complex) — there you should ask separately from the TERA booking.
• Payment methods (per OpenRice): Visa, Mastercard, AlipayHK, Alipay, Cash, AE, UnionPay, Apple Pay, Google Pay, BoC Pay, WeChat Pay, UnionpayQR, EPS.
• Cost reality: OpenRice lists the price band as $101–200 per person. A 2026-05 OpenRice reviewer quoted tasting-dinner sets at HK$538+1% rebate (Mon–Fri) and HK$598+1% rebate (Sat-Sun,PH) for two — i.e. roughly $270–300/head all-in on a tasting set.

There is no dedicated indoor pet zone — TERA is a mall shop on Level 1 of YOHO Mall I, and the practical pet routing is governed by YOHO Mall’s own policy rather than anything the venue prints. Petsona PawTable’s Yuen Long directory lists YOHO Mall as the densest cluster of FEHD-licensed pet-friendly restaurants in the New Territories (47 of the first 1,000 citywide permits in YL), but TERA itself is not on the Petsona PawTable index at the moment of writing. The FEHD register (licence 3194802029) covers the venue.

• Relief area on-site: none within the shop. YOHO Mall has an indoor pet relief corner on certain levels; the easiest outdoor relief stop is the YOHO Mall podium / Yuen Long Park (see Nearby).
• Off-leash permitted? No. Treat as on-leash throughout, including any mall pet zone.
• Distance from non-dog diners: zero — the shop seats 40 people in a compact wooden interior, and there is no indoor pet section.
• Inside a mall with dogs: YOHO Mall has historically required dogs in carriers inside the property, then relaxed this with the FEHD roll-out; expect the venue + mall to want the dog on a leash and under the table. Call the venue (2366 9669) to confirm the in-house rule on the day.

• Water bowl: not documented by any source. OpenRice, the FEHD register, and reviewer photos are all silent on water-bowl provision at the venue — bring your own or ask on arrival; we have no field confirmation either way.
• Pet mat / pee pad: not provided — bring your own.
• Pet treats on the house: not documented.
• Pet menu: none observed at TERA. The YOHO Mall food court levels and LIFETASTIC Patisserie (also YOHO) carry dog-friendly cakes — better than trying to stretch TERA’s dessert lineup to your dog.
• Pet stroller parking: YOHO Mall I is lift-accessible from the carpark and from the MTR link; folding a stroller inside the shop is workable at off-peak hours but not at the weekend queue.
• Pet-friendly toilet: YOHO Mall I carries 暢通易達 washrooms on the same floor as TERA (OpenRice “Accessible Environment” tag) — these are accessible but not pet-specific.

By MTR, TERA is a 4-minute walk from Yuen Long MTR Station Exit H. YOHO Mall I is the mall directly connected to Exit H via a covered link; Shop 1075 sits on Level 1 of the mall. This is the MTR note OpenRice itself publishes.

• Bus: the Yuen Long corridor runs KMB B2P (Shenzhen Bay), 54 (Sheung Shui), 68A (Tin Shui Wai), 76K (Fung Yuen), 268B (Long Ping Railway), 269B (Tin Shui Wai / Hung Hom), 276 (Tai Po), 373 (Upper Lam Tsuen) and many minibuses stopping within a 3-minute walk at the YOHO Mall / Castle Peak Road (Yuen Long) junction. The MTR Light Rail 610 / 614 / 615 / 761P also stops at Yuen Long terminus a 6-minute walk away.
• Step-free entry: yes — YOHO Mall I’s level 1 is fully lift-accessible, and OpenRice tags “Accessible Environment” (lift-accessible entry; accessible washroom on the same floor).
• Lift required: yes for the YOHO Mall I entrance from the MTR link; the carpark level is served by the same lift bank.
• Parking: YOHO Carpark (entrance off Castle Peak Road – Yuen Long) is the closest; the mall uses both open and covered decks.
• MTR walk time: ~4 min (Yuen Long Exit H).

The law, per the FEHD scheme baseline (Cap 167D + Dog-Friendly Food Premises Permit conditions):

• Leash length ≤ 1.5 m (FEHD baseline; indoor mall seating enforces this more strictly than outdoor cafés).
• No dogs on dining tables or bar seats (FEHD rule, observed in OpenRice user photos).
• 1.5 m exclusion from open buffets and salad bars (not applicable — TERA is à la carte plus afternoon tea and tasting sets).
• Dogs on the Dangerous Dog Regulation (Cap 167D) breeds list are excluded by law; staff almost never know the rule by name, they will say “no big dogs.”
• AFCD e-licence via iAM Smart should be carried — operators can ask.

What reviewers actually report on the ground:

• This is an indoor-mall shop, not an outdoor venue: OpenRice does not tag TERA with “Pet Friendly” the way open-seating restaurants on this page are tagged. Petsona PawTable’s Yuen Long directory does not carry TERA either; the only Pet-Friendly indicator is the FEHD register itself (licence 3194802029).
• The Mall’s own pet policy sits on top of FEHD: YOHO Mall I historically has asked for carrier-only in non-pet-licensed stores, then relaxed with the 2026 roll-out. Calling ahead (2366 9669) is the cheapest way to confirm what’s expected on the day.
• Indoor weekday visits are the easiest path with a small-to-medium dog; weekend brunch tables are tight and the soufflé queue forms before 11:00.

1. Call ahead to confirm pet policy (2366 9669) — OpenRice does not tag TERA as pet-friendly, and YOHO Mall’s own house rules still govern. This is the single most useful pre-trip call.
2. Carry your AFCD e-licence (iAM Smart) — operators can ask.
3. Bring your own water bowl and mat — no amenities are documented anywhere; we have not confirmed provision.
4. Book via OpenRice during off-peak — the 13:00 / 14:30 / 15:30 slots are the quiet ones and the 10% off promotion still applies.
5. Try the soufflé pancake on arrival — it sells out, especially the seasonal flavours (pistachio is a repeat favourite in OpenRice’s recommended-dishes strip).
6. Reserve at least 3 days ahead for Saturday/Sunday — the soufflé queue starts around 11:00 on weekends.
7. Don’t feed your dog from the venue’s tableware — FEHD rule, observed.
8. Do not bring a “Dangerous Dog” breed (Cap 167D) — the FEHD permit doesn’t override the parent ordinance.

OpenRice 4.5/5 across 492 reviews; FEHD licence 3194802029 confirmed as of 2026-07-07.

Reviewer signal: ”|”.

• YOHO Mall I (the mall itself) — the shop is inside it. YOHO is one of the densest clusters of FEHD-licensed pet-friendly restaurants in the New Territories, and many of the same-complex cafés (LIFETASTIC Patisserie for dog-friendly cakes, hive for the dedicated dog menu) carry their own reservations. See the YOHO Mall directory.
• Yuen Long Park (Yuen Long) — 8-min walk west via Castle Peak Road – Yuen Long. Green lawns, a fenced pet-friendly corner and water taps; the easiest pre-meal or post-meal relief stop from TERA. See the parks guide.
• More dog-friendly spots in Yuen Long — see our Yuen Long dog-friendly directory, including Flat Mountain Cafe (outdoor pet-friendly seating), Thai Master and Thai Star (FEHD-licensed, dog-menu, free parking), and Old Fung Tea House (FEHD-licensed, vintage dim sum).
