Captain Bakery is a beloved local establishment known for its delectable baked goods. It is a hidden gem in the Bridgeport/McKinley area, offering a great variety of Cantonese buns and other pastries. Customers describe the food as reminiscent of old school Cantonese buns, fresh and made with quality ingredients. The buns are praised as "great," with favorites including the curry chicken bun and the matcha sweet top bun. The prices are reasonable and cheap compared to larger bakeries in Chinatown, making it a highly recommended spot to try.
The bakery is family-owned, with both the mother and father, along with their son, ensuring the smooth operation of the business. The friendly staff creates a welcoming atmosphere, and they take the time to explain menu items and make recommendations. Customers appreciate the comfortable window seats, though seating is limited to four counters. The ample parking is a bonus for the neighborhood. Although the bakery has been temporarily closed, customers eagerly await its reopening, excited to return to this local favorite.
