I picked up some pastries from here for an on-the-go breakfast for the following day and the pastries were pretty good! I got this seaweed wrapped savory pastry filled with ham and pork floss and this cheese danish pastry and both of them were good. They weren't dry the following day. The flavor and textures were good. The prices at this bakery are great with a large variety to choose from. Overall, solid Asian bakery in the area. read more

As of July 2026, they removed hot tofu pudding from the menu. This was my favorite item on their dine in menu, so here's me shouting into the void for them to add it back! I included a picture below of the cold tofu pudding you can find at the bakery section of JJ Bakery. This is now all they offer. It's still good, don't get me wrong, but it wasn't phenomenal like the one they used to sell at the cafe side of JJ Bakery. read more

We stumbled upon this place and we were so happy that we did. We absolutely lost our minds in this place but especially the hubs. He had about 10 items before I was able to walk around and see what was available. This is reminiscent of Porto's but I believe this place is more Asian inspired. They had so many different options to choose from and we indulged wholeheartedly! I don't even remember what all we got as nothing is individually labeled but I do know I walked away with the salmon fried rice, which was so damn delicious. We walked out of here full of snacks and our pockets still full as it wasn't super expensive at all. Everyone were in the area we will come here to try something else. read more

I orginally called the JJ Bakery in Arcadia to order a cake, but they ran out of the flavor I wanted and they weren't going to get any more deliveries for the weekend. Luckily the lady I spoke to suggested I call the JJ Bakery & Cafe in Temple City. Oh, I didn't know they are also in Temple City. Thank you Miss! I called here and spoke to a nice lady who took my cake order. Lucky again, they had the 8 inch Vanilla Chiffon Cake layered with taro, red bean, and custard pudding in stock. It was only $39.80 no tax. Cool! This location is in the Elm Center Shopping Center. Plenty of free parking. Got here early morning. Line was short. Staff was friendly and helpful. Got my cake. Paid for it and left. I didn't have much time to peruse the bakery to check out their baked goods nor did I get a chance to sit in the cafe area. Pretty cool that they have bakery + cafe combo. Most other JJ Bakery don't have this setup. I will have to return here to give them a bit more attention and take more photos. As for the cake, it was very pretty with lots of fresh fruits on top. There was a good amount of taro with a thin layer of custard pudding. Great taro flavor and taste. Custard pudding had the perfect sweetness. I didn't get much red bean though. I forgot to take photos of the inside of cake. I'll have to order it again and examine it more closely. Nevertheless, great cake choice especially for the taro lovers! I will soon be back to get the full experience of JJ Bakery & Cafe. Thanks! read more

I used to work in another location, so I thought I'd be bored of the breads, but they just have really good food here. If you want a simple fluffy pork sung bun with a sweet mayo filling inside, jj has a really good one, im in love! Some of my other favorites are their strawberry and mango mochi, orange cake rolls, and seaweed roll bun. Its my favorite Taiwanese bakery, Im so sad my local one closed a few years ago in Alhambra. But im excited to come back for more! read more

Slightly above average Asian bakery among the many copies you will find in the SGV. JJ Bakery & Cafe is considered one of the many originators. Flavors and items that cater to Taiwanese cuisine. Bakery items include Asian inspired pastries and savory bakery goods. Items include pork buns, fried flat breads, and egg crepes that are excellent for breakfast. Options are long here and offer something for everyone. read more

The viral mango or strawberry mochi is so good! I like the mango one better. It's filled with fresh, sweet mango slices, cream and cake. You can refrigerate the mochi for days and it still stays soft and chewy and doesn't get hard. It's go good! read more

We visited for a special occasion cake and had originally placed an order for their tiramisu. But due to a last-minute change of heart (thanks, Dad!), we asked if we could switch it to a taro cake instead upon arrival. Honestly, I wouldn't have blamed them if they said no. But to our surprise, the staff was incredibly accommodating and handled the change with grace and efficiency. That kind of customer service deserves serious recognition. We chose a vanilla chiffon cake layered with red bean, taro, and pudding. Visually, it was stunning: elegantly decorated with fresh fruit on top, each piece artfully placed, and finished with a deep purple dusting that gave it a refined look. Taste-wise, it was everything we hoped for and more. The chiffon was light and airy, just the right amount of moist, and served as the perfect canvas for the trio of fillings. The taro was creamy and comforting, the red bean added a gentle earthy sweetness, and the pudding brought a soft richness that tied it all together. Not overly sweet nor heavy...just beautifully balanced and incredibly satisfying. JJ Bakery always has a great variety of cakes to choose from and they should deserve a spot at the top of your list! read more

Good selection of pastries for a reasonable price. Pastries are large and don't skimp out on the filling. We also tried the Mango Mousse cake and it was very good. They have a food court inside the bakery to the left. Decent quick Taiwanese bites, but was just OK food. read more

If you're in Arcadia and craving Taiwanese pastries JJ Bakery is the place to check out. ::Food:: Go in the morning to catch the freshest batch. The bakery specializes in Taiwanese pastries and breads. My favorites are the Red Bean, Taro, and Hot Dog buns. Their menu includes food options, but I haven't tried them yet. I also love picking up their goodies as gifts! ::Dessert:: They also offer cakes, but I haven't tried a whole one yet. I've had their cake slices, and they're just okay. ::Customer Service:: Customer service is okay. It is more of a "pay and go" experience. ::M's Notes:: - Parking lot - Inside seating read more

Last minute, I needed a birthday cake. I found exactly what I wanted at JJ Bakery. Beautifully decorated with fresh fruit, a petit cake for a small gathering .....perfect. Then, after I purchased, the lovely salesperson packaged the cake in a beautiful gift box, IN a gift bag, with a plastic serving Spatula and two red candles! What an unexpected treat, not to have to make it look like a present, myself! The flavor of The cake was just as it looked like it would be!!! Delicious! Thank you JJ Bakery...I will be back! read more

I bought a rice roll, the taste was not good and fresh. I went to the store several times, same thing happened several times. I like rice roll but I am not going back and I do not recommend this store. read more

One of my favorite things in the world are Taiwanese macaroons which are kind of shaped like French macarons, but they're not made with almond flour and the dough itself tastes more like a very light sponge cake. I have actually been looking for these types of Taiwanese macaroons everywhere, and I have never seen them in America until I saw them at JJ's. I was really excited and it tasted pretty good too. If only they had locations closer to the west side. read more

I am always impressed with the quality, taste, and freshness of the baked goods I buy here. I'm disappointed that at this particular location that the staff doesn't seem to know how to engage with customers in a customary fashion, such as warmly greeting and thanking customers at a purchase. I have noticed a rather flat and cold expression in the faces of the staff. There's no charisma or animation about the staff. I suggest staff at this location frequent other bakeries in Pasadena, South Pasadena, Glendora, or La Canada, to name only a few, to get a sense of how to meet and greet customers in a place of business. read more

The mooncakes are delicious and great quality here! They offer different flavors with and without salted yolk like lotus, red bean, date, and pineapple, etc. I really enjoyed all the ones I've tried. They offer box sets or you can buy individual ones from the mini size to the full size. It's great to buy as gifts to friends and family. Or to even try a whole bunch for yourself. read more

Comfortable spacing. Service is pretty good. Bakery doesn't have much left after 7pm which makes sense cuz they bake fresh. Busy plaza but plenty of parking. Would come back soon. read more

Authentic Taiwanese bread and food. Their Taiwanese egg tar, tofu flower soup (dessert) are really the best in LA

Located in a busy shopping center, I stopped by for some baked goods and saw a fellow Yelper there. We certainly know what's good in the area. I don't rate 5 stars to many businesses, this one earned it! The baked goods are individually wrapped on the shelves, which is very good. Some items are boxed and ready for gift-giving (see videos). I like this practice, it's good to know others are not touching your food like fruit and veggies in the grocery store. They have cakes for all occasions, each one looks like a work of art, almost too pretty to eat. They sell coffee, tea, juice, and other refreshments. By the cashier is a refrigerated section with prepared meals, packaged and ready to take home, and simply heat for lunch or dinner. Don't be in a rush, come with sufficient time to find parking, browse, shop, eat or take their breads, cookies, cake or pastries home. Don't forget to tell'em that Rosemary sent ya! read more

I like the little café here. It opens after 11:00 and we love to dine in here. The place is clean and food is okay.

Imma be honest.. I come here at least once a week. I live nearby and it's very convenient. Plus I will say I prefer JJ Bakery over Sunmerry which is across the street but hey I go there too I don't discriminate. I like that there is a restaurant connected to this bakery so if you want food, you can grab something to eat. If I'm in a rush for lunch I'll get the braised pork over rice and maybe bean curd/bamboo shoots. What I also love is that JJ's has ready made drinks in their refrigerated section, now I get that you can't order fancier drinks but who doesn't love a good Jasmine Milk Tea or just a Green/Black Tea that you can grab and be out the door? As for the pastries, I'd say they are standard. Hot Dog bun is always solid, I like their Red Bean Mochi Bun a lot. Thank you JJ's for being my go-to for to-go. read more

Chewco inspires creativity at JJ Bakery & Cafe, which is a family owned Bakery offering traditional Asian breads, cakes, desserts, specialty foods and beverages. Chewco uses innovative ingredients for baking pros. MUST-TRY DESSERTS: Chocolate Mojo: bite sized buns with a stretchy, airy texture and rich chocolate flavor Marshmallow Mochi: a luscious cream wrapped in a mochi skin that has the soft texture of marshmallow; a creamy, fluffy and cloud-like bite Mango Pomelo Sago Bite: a take on the Hong Kong dessert; mango flavor with a mochi heart and sprinkled with coconut flakes Mango Mochi Cake: looks like a mango! This mango cake has chewy mochi in the middle. Some of my savory favorites: BBQ Pork Bun, BBQ Pork Steamed Buns. They do have a cafe with hot foods. I'll have to try it next time. They have wonderful customer service and very helpful. There's seating in the cafe area. read more

Restaurant has some nice combo sets. If you like Taiwanese food, this place is for you. Some friends love this place and took me here, so I gave it a try with them. With lots of items to choose, my friends suggested any of the combo sets which range between $12-15, that come with soup and two sides. I choose the grilled mackerel and it was so good. The sides and soup was okay, but I enjoyed the variety. For the price, I was very full and had to take home leftovers. Also it is connected to a delicious bakery. Good for a date if you are looking for a place that is cheaper than most places. Parking can be hard on weekends, but fine on weekdays. read more

Great place to eat and/or grab a refreshing milk tea or pastry. I had their milk tea, a variety of pastries, and their popcorn chicken. Everything was good - although for the pastries, I would've like a little more evenly spread filling and for the popcorn chicken, pieces with a little more meat - I felt like I was eating mainly batter (still good but yeah). read more

Lady kicked us out and don't allow us to sit after ordering food because we didn't specify dine in.

Too pricy for the quality. 85 bakery is definetely cheaper and better for the price. It is located in the middle of chinease people so you have to understand chinese language or you won't get good promotion price posted in the store window or local newspaper. read more

My favorite bakery with different pastries that I love. Their pastries are far more better than 85 degrees. Love they have selections like pineapple buns, tuna croissants and steam buns vs 85 that has generic pastries. JJ has good desserts also because they are not overly sweet . This location has a small cafe with good premade food in their fridge. read more

This JJ Bakery location is usually my go to for bread for the past few years. It's located in the same plaza and TJ Maxx and Daiso. It's also close to Sunmerry, another bakery just right across the street but I usually prefer JJ bakery for their bread and sandwiches. I usually get a mix of bread but today I only got a loaf of white bread. Though their bread is yummy, service is a hit or miss which today unfortunately is a miss. The cashier was pretty monotone and not so customer friendly. After I paid for the bread, he literally said next customer as he was giving me my change. He could have at least give me 2 seconds to put my money back into my wallet but he was impatient to charge the next customer in line. So as I was putting my money away, he was already doing the transaction for the customer that was behind me even though I'm still in front of the customer he was charging and my bread was still on the table. It wasn't like the line was long either because it was only one person behind me. Thought that was pretty rude as I never encountered this kind of service in this location before but hopefully it's not always like this. read more

I grew up with JJ bakery so it's very nostalgic for me. Highly recommend the egg tarts here if you want a more pie crust and very eggy, and the price is reasonable for their baked breads! It's a chain so you can find this bakery all over 626. read more

I love JJ! They always have the best selection of dessert with just the right amount of sugar to fulfill your craving without getting diabetes. The Hokkaido cream buns are spectacular. The cream puffs are just as delicious. Always get both, no regrets of not getting one or the other! The cake slice selections are great!!! Can get one of each of the many delights to fulfill all cravings!!! Go, must go, must come back! Thanks!!! read more

Had one of the most unique and tasty thanksgiving cake! The crust was perfectly baked with pumpkin mousse and cake. So glad that we decided to order from there.

*picture for reference* Overall, the food is decent. I personally like their minced pork, but the rest are decent. Their popcorn chicken was a bit extra fried when we dined. Service is great and prompt Ambiance is good, decent place to dine-in or to-go, but not the biggest place to dine just a heads up. Lots of pastries to choose from. Overall, It's a great place for a quick dine. Overall I'd give it a 3.8/5 read more

Whenever I see a JJ's bakery I know I'm getting quality. Just moved to San Gabriel and so happy there's one close by. It's fun to shop there too. I love taking my tray and scanning the goodies. Haven't tried all but we have lots of favorites. From their sweets to their savory it's always delicious and very fairly priced. Enjoy! read more

I stopped by a breakfast carb run and picked up Taiwanese pastries. It's a typical Asian style bakery where you pick pastries out of a case. My favorites of what I sampled were the pineapple pastry, mung bean pastry, and the Portuguese egg tart. I don't think I have ever tasted anything like the mung bean pastry. The service was friendly at the register unlike what others might have experienced from interacting with the cashier. I would definitely return next time I have a meeting at the local Starbucks. read more

This is a pretty cool JJ with a cafe and a bakery. The bakery is pretty decent and prices are good. 4 bread items was only $11 which is a steal in today's economy. In terms of the bread itself, they are pretty standard. Good quality nothing special but overall taste is good. Would want to try the premade items/cafe sometime. read more

I visited this location for the first time a couple of weeks ago and a second time yesterday. Both times I was greeted warmly by the staff as they were setting out their fresh baked goods. As I explored, I noticed what was popular and coming out, freshly baked. I was happy to see that everything was clean and well organized. I tried for bread and two different parts. Then tried their unsweetened milk tea. Everything was delicious. Was too sweet. Next time, I'll do my best to take pictures of the breads that I tried. But overall, a happy experience! I will definitely be coming back again. read more
