I have been to Win Son Bakery three times now and every time I have left disappointed. The food is absolutely amazing however the staff has an unfortunate attitude and there has been a different issue with my pick up every time. I have felt embarrassed and uncomfortable through 95% of interactions. I will most likely give it one more chance but I hope next time the staff's attitude can match the food.

Popped in here quick because it was pouring rain! Little did I know I’d be captivated by this cute bakery/cafe! I ordered the fries and enjoyed them so much! Definitely need to come back and try more foods and drinks too!

Great addition to the neighborhood. Vibes are high, the menu is vast, there’s good gluten free options that are labeled (although wish more of their sauces were gf)
Could eat 5 pounds of these fries and the turnip cake was awesome.

Black sesame latte was okayish. The latte was not filled upto the brim and there was lot of ice :( I loved the mochi donut. It was so good!

Cool concept and good vibes but i thought the scallion rolls all had waaay too much cheese so I didn't taste anything except cheese. it also makes them feel super heavy and greasy. We liked the fan tuan and ban cai though!
Also I thought it was a little weird that the menu shows chinese pinyin but the cashiers don't really understand if you order with the chinese name. I think the menu should just be in english then, haha

Need to go back to try the different items, but the scallion pancake shrimp egg sandwich was a little too eggy for my taste. But the staff was very friendly

i’m taiwanese american, so i was very excited to try win son. unfortunately, i thought it was a bit overhyped, especially the BEC sandwich. the spring onion pancake tasted a bit bland and i really don’t understand why people call it the best breakfast sandwich in nyc— nothing about it stood out to me. the rest of the items were decent, albeit quite expensive. the atmosphere is also very busy and packed with people, so be prepared to get in, eat, and leave.

As a Taiwanese American, I was extremely disappointed by my breakfast. I ordered the tian doujiang (even confirmed it's freshly made) and scallion pancake w/ egg+cheese. This is my staple breakfast whenever I go back to Taiwan.
The soy milk's soy flavor was very mild and tasted like something store-bought. The accompanying youtiao was crunchy, not soft at all. Lastly, the scallion pancake was extremely heavy. It was greasy and loaded with way too much cheese to be a classic Taiwanese breakfast pancake. I could not finish my food as I started feeling nauseous from the heaviness.
The service and atmosphere were fine, but don't come here expecting a traditional, light Taiwanese breakfast.
Ok. Solid. But overhyped. The two things I got here were really solid: rice noodles and fan tuan. That said, I think the scallion BEC looks overrated and greasy.
The fan tuan is slight sweet, crunchy, and overall very delicious. For $7, I’d get it again but wouldn’t wait in line.
The rice noodles were very propper. I wish they had more protein in there, but honestly they were very solid. Overpriced, though. A meal size.
On weekends there’s not a crazy line anymore which is a blessing. There is a wait to sit down and eat though.
I almost wanna give them 4 stars for being overpriced and overhyped but I can’t lie… the noodles and fan Tuan were delicious.

Decent food but unbelievably overpriced. Wait times are long even for basic items. Very loud environment. In my opinion, there are much better options in the area for wonderful Taiwanese foods

I wish i could give Win Son more than 5 stars. The food is mouth wateringly good. You cannot go wrong here. Inventive. Flawless quality. Cool atmosphere.

Came during opening week, so they might have been ironing out some things. The food was overall underwhelming and slightly greasy. The fan tuan was prob the best thing. We waited for an hour or so, and they also got our order wrong but did fix it when we brought it to their attention.
