Cash only, little place, but it has my favorite bo lo bao and an assortment of other pastries and drinks. Prices are reasonable. I would go back.

Highly recommend the pork buns! Filling is delicious and the buns are soft and sweet. Cash or venmo only.

Located in the heart of Chinatown, another establishment that doesn't take credit cards. Instead payment is via Venmo. So I guess that great since you don't need to pay tax. They have a limited selection of baked goods (see photos) and drinks. Menu is a bit chaotic to read (but this is Chinatown). Baked items are very fresh. Limited seating inside though. Prices are cheap for this economy.

The baked goods are SO FRESH we came in at 10 am and got the ham and egg, taro bun, pork bun, danish, and Vietnamese coffee. Everything was so tasty the pork buns and taro buns are the best thing!! Id have an idea of what you want before you go in, theres a lot of options and its a bit of a tight space that gets crowded easily. Pineapple bun isn’t filled I think fyi. Bring cash if you can its just easier and probably cheaper.

Fruit cake was amazing!! Tasted so fresh and just the right amount of sweet. They also have great service and gave me a cake topper and birthday candle free of charge. Definitely give them a visit!

Mayflower Bakery made our wedding cake and we didn’t even get to have our own pieces because of how quickly people ate them! We wanted something simple and small and they did a beautiful job. Our cake was not too sweet (the highest compliment possible) and incredibly light. They made sure the decorations were made exactly as I wanted and even offered cake toppers. I highly recommend them!

While in Chinatown, wanted to check out a Chinese bakery. I was in the mood for some boba so I got that. It was delicious. The women there were so friendly, everything there looked so good, prices were great too

I've tried egg tarts from several bakeries in Chinatown, and this one is the best. It's a bit pricier, but it's worth it.

Really loved this authentic Chinese bakery. Everything was affordable and delicious, particularly the egg tarts, which as other reviewers pointed out, have a perfectly flaking crust and custard that's just the right amount of sweetness. I also enjoyed the turnovers. Will definitely be returning soon to purchase more.
