    Always seen the long lines and thought what is the hype? Could it really be that good? Yes! The answer is yes! The baked goods are so tasty and moist. To top it off the variety of flavors for the fillings are amazing. And to go even higher the butter flavors are that good too!

    Glad this place is closer makes it easier to get. The place is quite small. No seating area. They didn't have the salted egg pineapple bun which was a bummer. But everything else that I got was good. Just wished it was warm. Ordered on a kiosk and service was quick. Will be back to try other flavors and get the bbq pork bun.

    Came here after hearing about it from friends. Mainly a takeout bakery. We ordered a couple of different butters to try. Our favorite was guava and the salted egg butter. Love the softness of the bun and the thick slab of butter. We tried a variety of the mini tarts as well. We will probably skip them next time and just get the pineapple buns.

    Had their food so many times but have not until now because of the pineapple crust bbq pork tart and the pineapple pork bbq bun. Liked both but enjoyed the tart more. The bbq pork was sweet and went well with the slightly salty tart crust. Crust was light, thin and flaky. The Pineapple bbq pork bun was also good with the sweeter bread. The crispy crust added a nice texture. Good bread meat ratio. Like eating a less doughy pork bun. Also tried the mango butter with Tajin pineapple bun was ok. Good pineapple butter but not sure about the Tajin part. Kerrygold butter bun had a nice buttery creamy flavor. I usually don't finish a whole bun but I finished the pineapple bbq pork bun really quickly and wanted another of the bbq pork tart.

    I went today on a Saturday and the plaza was so busy, it was so hard to find parking. I got the fish mooncake, the 6 pack pineapple buns (the best bang for your buck in my opinion), and the peach tart. For the peach tart, I thought it could've been bigger, it was pretty small and it was the same price as the 6 pack pineapple buns. Overall, this was a great bakery and there's always a line out the door. The price is worth it for the baked goods for the most part

    Finally tried and found it a bit expensive and nothing crazy. Zero ambiance but at least service is fast. Got the croissant tart in original and pandan, the outer crust is just way too hard but pandan flavor was there. i like how th ube pineapple bun had real yam but the filling wasn't that tasty or distributed probably and it was pretty dry. the best thing i got was the matcha puffs, the cream was actually pretty good and the size makes the texture was very satisfying. $4 for a teeny tiny tart was not worth it, two puff was very worth it, and i wouldn't get the ube again but it was reasonably priced given there was real yam in it.

    Still as good as I remembered! It's a no brainer that the salted egg butter is a must order. You can't go wrong with a slightly sweet crunchy soft bolo bao and the salty egg butter. This time I also ordered their pork floss salted egg tart but the crust is just too flaky and oily for me. Service is quick and friendly! Will always stop by when I'm in town.

    Placed an online order for pick up and it was ready by the requested pick up time. You need to have your ID ready and it must match the order name. Surprisingly, the line was not long even for walk in orders on a Saturday afternoon. We got the mini deluxe box, pandan croissant egg tart, guava butter pineapple bun. You have to eat these fresh! We ate the guava butter and the bread was so soft and warm, with a crunchy exterior. Guava butter had a good flavor and paired well with the bun. Their buns were all pretty good. The pandan croissant egg tart lacked pandan flavor but I did like the croissant base. Will definitely be back!

    I've never been a fan of pineapple buns- Pineapple King Bakery totally changed all of that!! This Bakery is kind of small in size and it's strictly meant to house transactional sales. Seating consists of a few tables and is more like a takeout joint. The Hong Kong style pastries are sweet, crunchy, yet so very soft and fluffy- all at the same time. The very first taste left me in awe and that has not changed one bit. These baked goods aren't overly sweet. The textures are well rounded and the flavors are unique compared to the Americanized standpoint. These pineapple buns are buttery deliciousness and depending on your choice of filling, it can check off all the marks of being sweet, savory, and leave you wanting more. Faves: *PINEAPPLE BUN [PLAIN] *BBQ PORK PINEAPPLE BUN *BBQ PORK BUN 5/5 stars. The quality has not declined even after all these years.

    Milk tea with pineapple bun
    Frank L.

    The hype is real! So good! They have so much variety of pineapple buns, pineapple custard buns, and tarts that it can be a lil overwhelming. I went with the ten blessings with gives you 5 tarts and 5 buns for about $32. Both the tarts and buns were so good. Make sure to try the milk tea as well! It was expensive as hell for basic milk tea ($7) but the flavor was so good after tasting it I didn't regret buying it at all. It def hits the spot with the pineapple buns. Overall, def give this spot a try! I will be back to try the pineapple custard buns.

    My husband delighted with bringing me here because it was so good!! We got pineapple bun with butter (daughter fav), I also like it!! we also got the bbq pork pineapple bun, which I didn't even get to taste..again my daughter devoured it. According to her..it was bomb! What I did love is the salted egg custard pinapple bun, and the salted egg pineapple bun. Because we didn't get enough, lol..we also got egg tart! Everything was delicious It's an order by the window service. The ladies are so nice and patient with us as we tried to figure out the menu. We will go back here again

    Always consistent pineapple buns. Ordered several including the mini filled ones, a selection of taro, red bean, black sesame, guava butter, matcha mocha, and original. Easy to pre order and pickup up was quick and efficient. When I got home I realized one was missing. I called to notify and they said they would promptly refund the missing bun. Always a hit!

    Smaller than the rest?
    Idy C.

    I really like pineapple bun. It reminds me of Hong Kong. It gives me lots of memory of milk tea and buns in Hong Kong. I used to stop by when I m in town. There were several incidents that either my order was wrong or missing. This time I m shocked about the quality. One particular bun is smaller than the rest. It's not a big deal however I m also doubt the quality control. Isn't it they should weight the dough when making the bun? Ok...understand people makes mistakes. When you saw it and sold this to customer then it's not okay. And please slow down and check the orders to avoid mistakes.

    I love the spam and egg! What is that sauce you put in there?

    Which items are gluten-free?

    None

    Is Pineapple Bakery safe for people with peanut allergies?

    Hi David, thank you for reaching out. Our kitchen does use tree nuts, peanuts, and sesame seeds. Some buns and baked goods contain these allergens. There is a possibility of cross-contamination during production. Hope this is helpful.

    If not planning to eat these buns right away, should I put them in the refrigerator or would leaving on the counter in a cool place be sufficient?

    Thank you for reaching out! The best way to enjoy fresh baked goodness is to eat them fresh right away. If you are planning to save for later, see heating instructions below. Any meat filling items should be kept refrigerated.… 

    I want to place an order for a event but can't get in contact and tried multiple times. What's the best way to get in contact? The event is on Saturday

    Hi, unfortunately we do not cater for events at the moment at either store.

    Are the buns made with milk or soy? For dairy and soy allergies

    Yes unfortunately all of our baked goods are made with dairy ingredients.

    Is there lard in any of the products? I'm asking for family members who are vegetarian (egg and butter okay), not vegan. Thanks!

    Which ones are pineapple buns without filling inside?

    Pineapple Bun or Mini Pineapple Bun are both without fillings.

    I tried this place in sf back then and it just a regular Chinese bakery simple , I love the buns , but for real , the wait time for the whole process can take up to 1-3 hours is ridiculous, I can drive to sf n back even faster then wait?

    You definitely can! I waited 2.5 hours so I can really drive to SF twice and still saved more time.

    When can we expect online ordering to be available?

    It's mid-October and the anticipated opening was mid-September. When is the expected opening day?

    Oct 27th 2023

    When will the shop open? I have been checking every week :)

    Oct 27th 2023 soft opening

    When are you opening?

    Oct 27th 2023 soft opening

    Can we preorder on opening day to avoid selling out and waiting in a long line?

    Will you guys sell similar mooncakes as the SF location. I love those mooncakes?

    Hi, thank you for reaching out! We have not decided if we will sell mooncakes at our new Fremont store but it’s a nice day trip to visit the city! ❤️

    Are you open yet at fremont?

    Hi, thank you for reaching out! We do not have a definitive opening date yet but we are trying to open as soon as possible. There was some delay but construction is under way and hope to make progress by mid- to end of September. Continue to… 

    Are you the one from SF?

    Yes we are! Pineapple King Bakery is expanding out to Fremont and East Bay Area due to popular demands! We are delivering fresh baked goodness everyday! Follow us on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and Yelp for more info and opening date!

    Anyone know when this is opening?

I'd love to keep Pie Dreams my little secret, but out of respect for the proprietor's mad baking skills, it's behind Dino's. The owner is passionate about his pies and shared his philosophy about how pie can make us all nicer, gentler people. I mean, that's not exactly verbatim, but the pie case made it hard to pay attention. On my visit, there were two savory pies (hand pies) and a selection of sweet pies (hand pies and slices). Being a big supporter of small businesses, I ordered 4. All I can say is I'm super happy I don't live closer. The chicken bacon hand pie was delicious. Big pieces of chicken in a flavorful creamy sauce. There may have been some vegetables in it but I was driving and it was unsafe to inspect my pie closely. The caramel apple hand pie was good. Because I'm not an apple pie fan I appreciated that the apples were sliced thinly, not chunky, and I loved the addition of the sanding sugar on top. I ordered the apricot frangipane (AF) for two reasons: it was double-crusted and it didn't have whipped cream on top. I wasn't totally on board with frangipane since my experience with it in boxed chocolates was "meh." Plus they seem to love it on the Great British Bake-Off and it always looks so unappealing. But paired with the tartness of the apricots and a crust that reminded me of shortbread, I think the AF was my favorite, though I haven't tried the blueberry lemon yet. If you love pie, go to Pie Dreams and have a slice or three (no judgment here). If you're not sure or don't think you like pie, go to Pie Dreams. You may surprise yourself.
