Great tarts, good buns, worst staff ever.

So many fun and unique flavored buns! I came here just to try their egg tarts ($2.75 each) and they were ok. However, the egg white egg tarts (also $2.75 each) are delicious!! Haven't seen these before.

On Saturdays it can get quite busy, but the line goes by fast. They accept Venmo payments too.

The egg tarts are honestly ust OK, I would say nothing to go crazy about and also quite expensive. The saving grace is that the line is much shorter than the golden gates bakery but honestly, I did not love it here

Variety of fresh baked breads and sweets. They also served hot drinks which perfectly pair.

The only downside is that they don't have tables and chairs for dine-in.

Last week, I passed by Golden Gate Bakery and saw a huge line, so I decided to find another spot in Chinatown with equally delicious egg tarts! (After all, there are so many egg tart shops there 😆!) That’s when I discovered Yummy Bakery & Cafe that sells egg white egg tarts!

Even when I arrived 30 minutes before closing, there was still a small line! They were still baking fresh bread and egg tarts—such a nice surprise! The interior clearly showed its history as an old-school bakery, which immediately let me know they are good 👀.

I got the egg white egg tart, regular egg tart, and a pineapple bun with real pineapple chunks 🍍.

Egg Tart:
When eaten fresh and warm, the crust is super crispy and fragrant, and the custard is soft, silky, and delicious 😋. It’s above average, but not mind-blowing—more of a solid stable choice when you’re craving egg tarts!

Egg White Egg Tart:
The filling had a texture kind of like steamed milk pudding, and the crust was on the crispier side! It might not be for everyone, but it’s definitely worth trying at least once!

Pineapple Bun:
The crust was flaky, and the bread was soft and fluffy! The balance between the milk custard filling and real pineapple chunks was just right—when you bite into the pineapple pieces, the natural fruity aroma bursts out, making the custard feel lighter and not overwhelming 😲. Such a pleasant surprise!!

If you ever catch these fresh out of the oven, you must get one—this was my favorite out of everything and totally worth buying again! It was my first time trying a pineapple bun with actual pineapple chunks inside 😆. And it was so crispy that I couldn’t even tear it apart for a photo—it just flattened instantly 😆. Definitely best enjoyed warm!

Came here on my way to the airport. I wanted to try their egg tart. We were asked to wait as they were sold out and had some in the oven. We were asked to step aside. The egg tarts came out of the oven and rather than help us (several customers were waiting just for the egg tarts) they continued to help the customer behind us while giving them egg tarts that we were waiting for. After about 30 minutes of waiting and being ignored (the customer behind me started to get upset also as they continued to sell egg tarts to the customers behind us) I asked if they were going to help us. They acknowledged me and talked amongst themselves and asked me how many egg tarts I wanted. To top it off the egg tarts were just ok. Needless to say, it’s overhyped and customer service needs some work. Won’t be back or recommend this place.

Many people were on the line waiting for egg tarts. In my opinion it was just ok. Not wow. Also I found its taste and texture was better when it get cold. I’ve tried egg tarts from 4stores in china town, this store is pricier then others store. I actually like the crust of egg tart from AAbakery better.
