This place hits. The best croissant in Oakland, the pizza is amazing and the bread is too. I wish they were open more, because they're never open when I can go, but this is a favorite.
Love their cocktail buns
I keep cash on hand just for random trips to Napoleon. Bakery items are always delicious. I prefer to go earlier because the items will be nice and warm. The mini pineapple buns deal is a steal!
Love their pineapple custard buns! Always a wait here but it’s not their fault
No fuss, no muss Cantonese bakery with sticky floors & cash only policy & you better know what you already want. It hits the spot if you're looking for cheap prices. Along with some of the buns & breads, all I could remember was trying both the traditional Cantonese & Portuguese style egg tarts; both good, but I've had better.
Best prices on buns, loved the chicken mushroom and the pork. Most offerings are $1.50.
I'm here to rave about the Portugese egg custard tart aka Po Tat
they are $2.25 @. vs. $1.75@ for the regular egg custard. The one I tried today was slightly sweet with a carmelized top and the crust was quite flaky / tender. The custard was fluffy and light, Would definitely be back for these. I usually go to Ruby King for egg custard tarts but they are closed on Tuesdays for now ...... so I went to Napolean Super Bakery / Oakland. So glad I did.

This is our go to place for egg custard tarts even though we don't live anywhere near by. If we're planning to pass by the area even just on the freeway, I'll make a detour.
We buy almond cookies once in awhile but you have to be sure they're fresh, we've had some batches that had an aftertaste.
Other things are the cocktail buns, taro buns but there's nothing particularly outstanding about those. I'm giving 4.5 stars for the egg custard tarts. Service isn't bad but it's just minimal, what do you want, anything else, here's the total, thank you, next...
Atmosphere is busy old bakery where appearance and setting is only what's needed to conduct business.

Always has a line for good reason!
Got the red bean bun, bbq pork bun, and the egg tart, service was extremely fast after waiting ~10min in line. All 3 were great prices and great quality, devoured them immediately!

The service attitude is extremely bad. I repeat the same sentence many times and no one cares. I don't know how to do anything. I just like to answer questions and ignore them.
Great authentic flavor with great price.
