Another iconic spot in Pike Place market with consistent long line since early opening time. Nonetheless, as they continuously made everything, they’re all fresh yet ready to serve warm.
It’s more like grab and go Chinese snacks so no sit-down space.
We got their crowd’s favorite Curry Beef homboy and Crab Rangoon along with the Red Bean Sesame Ball for the sweet option. The first was basically their pineapple bun, also available with pork and chicken...read full review

Must stop for a true Pike Place Market experience. The beutiful puffed up Bow buns come steamed or baked. They have multiple choices to choose from with an curiously delicious sweet crust on the baked pastry. They also have many other savory and sweet choices to choose from. I like to grab one or two and walk over to the Overlook Walk area. Sit down, rekax, watch the view of the water as the sun goes down.
i loved the bao. The red bean cookie was a little sweet, but satisfied my red bean craving lol. A little expensive, but the bao are worth it as a meal.

Mee Sum Pastry offers a menu with a wide variety of freshly made options. While the prices are a bit higher than typical Chinese bakeries, the quality and taste make it worthwhile. The restaurant has no interior, so all orders are to-go, but the process is smooth and the staff is friendly. Located right in the middle of the Pike Place Market area, customers find it worth the small wait for amazing buns. Many enjoy the beef hombow, described as the absolute best and baked, not steamed, making it a favorite. Customers also appreciate the fluffy bread with a slight crisp on the outside, adding a nice texture. Pork buns and BBQ pork bread are popular, with some noting that the fillings can be very sweet, while others suggest trying the curry beef for more flavor. The crab rangoons are also mentioned as very good, and the bao buns are solid overall. Despite the higher costs due to the location, many find the food delicious and worth the visit, especially for the beef hombow and pork buns. However, customers are advised to check their bags carefully after paying, as there have been issues with missing items. The sour + spicy flavors in the BBQ pork bread, especially when paired with Lee Kum Kee spicy sauce, add to the appeal for those who enjoy bold flavors.
