Baker Duck has a great selection of unique, well-presented, and dense buns, but the overall experience is dragged down by service and hygiene issues.
The store gets busy on weekends, and the staff needs to organize the lines better to speed up checkout. A major concern is the lack of wax paper for the selection trays, which poses a serious cross-contamination risk for anyone with food allergies. The used tongs are also a concern.

I really like this bakery. They have amazing food, great prices and good customer service. Also, I like that they have creative baked goods that many other Chinese bakeries don't have, such as charcoal burgers.
great price and delicious breads 😋

Based on the reviews, Baker Duck in Markham offers a great selection of unique, well-presented, and dense buns, with creative baked goods that many other Chinese bakeries don't have, such as charcoal burgers. The food is amazing, with reasonable pricing for the quality. Items like the fried curry beef bun and egg tarts are delicious fresh and warm, and the egg tart is flakey with filling that isn't too loose. The bread is not overproofed and dry, and there is a substantial amount of filling in the filled buns.
However, the overall experience is dragged down by service and hygiene issues. The store gets busy on weekends, and the staff needs to organize the lines better to speed up checkout. A major concern is the lack of wax paper for the selection trays, which poses a serious cross-contamination risk. The used tongs are also a concern. Employees are often curt and snippy, and it is dangerous when they carry large, hot trays directly over customers' heads. The atmosphere looks very old and run-down, though one staff member is lovely and helpful. This location is inside Denison Centre, and the store front isn't huge, so it can get tight if busy.
