    I was in Chinatown for a political event, and decided to try Queen Bakery out. Queen's Bakery is located in the heart of Chinatown, there is street parking plus a few structures, Queen's Bakery was established way back in 1938 the second generation family owned. It's not that big inside, no table or chairs inside or out, just look order pay and go. There is a variety of Items liks croissants, breads, buns, tarts, cakes, cream puffs, cookies, coffee, sodas, teas, all of the Items pre-package and behind a glass display case. I only order the almond cookies, they were light airy and flaky and NOT sweet at all, not even a hint of sweetness. The staff was very nice and friendly, I will return and try something new.

    Stumbled upon this bakery and got one egg custard bun and a pork floss bun. The pork floss bun tasted stale and the milk bread portion of the bun tasted wildly different from the egg custard bun, which was very good. The milk bread was soft and pillowy and the filling was generously pipped in and it's not too sweet. It was pretty cheap for $3 a bun that was sizable. I'd make sure to ask which buns they made day of.

    Almond cookie monster

    Every decade I have to pop in to toss my 5 stars into the Yelp universe. Almond cookies (22 oz) are now $9.50 but you cannot beat the quality and ultra fluffy crunchiness of Queen's. They're still being made with lard and the same quality ingredients I've known my whole life. It's always sort of busy, just be aware of the line and have your pick up slip ready if you pre-ordered a cake. Everyone was very polite and it moves fast. Staff was prompt helpful when I asked if they made Neapolitan cakes; bummer...they were so good. Pineapple buns & almond cookies are my go to items. I grabbed a few $5.50 cake slices too. Don't go in while you're hungry! It all looks good; lol. No sugar free or gluten free options that I could see.

    Inside a rice puff

    I recently discovered this bakery and really enjoy the rice puff and almond cookies from here. The rice puff is soft, lightly sweet, and makes a perfect after-dinner treat with coffee or even a mid-day snack. The almond cookies are also delicious and pair really well with coffee or tea, especially if you like something simple and not overly sweet. They sell both items individually or by the box; the rice puffs come in a box of 12 and the almond cookies in a box of 40. At $9.50 each, they're very reasonably priced. I picked up a couple of boxes for my family Thanksgiving gathering and everyone loved them. The bakery also sells pastries, breads, and cake slices, which I haven't tried yet but definitely plan to on my next visit. They also make great little gifts for dessert lovers who prefer lightly sweetened treats.

    I highly recommend Queen's Bakery for birthday cakes. They went the extra mile and wrote my nephew's name in a style that matched the design perfectly. That was very much appreciated from someone who is not creative at all! These cakes are really delicious as well. I would argue that they have the best cakes throughout Los Angeles.

    Looking for some sweet treats after a good lunch from Yang Chow restaurant & found this place nearby! Here's what we got and everything was delicious! Strawberry Shortcake Chocolate Mozart Cream Puff Vanilla Rolls

    Guava pastry
    Gracie M.

    So this is my go-to after I finish eating at Yang Chow's. It's literally a couple doors down to the right. They serve all types of pastries as well as teas, coffee, and more. I'm in love with the guava pastry. They are $3 a piece and worth every bite.The service is always great. Thank you very much and see you soon.

    We bought a lot of desserts and treats here, some were good but some were too sweet. Still a cheap place to try in Chinatown LA

    This place has been here for ages and as long as I can remembered. I used to go here for their sweet treats. Service is very friendly and family oriented for sue. Their baked goods are good and very affordable just yummy!! Parking can be a hectic since most are street parking (paid meters) or pay parking lot within walking distance. The place is dated since it has been there forever, and yes they should be updated but I don't think they ever have. But they do keep it clean as much as they can.

    Looking for some mooncakes for mid autumn moon festival and saw this bakery online. We got the lotus with 1 egg yolk for $8.75. It was a very underwhelming mooncake. We felt like the flavor didn't really come through other than the egg yolk. Wouldn't really recommend. Wish there were red bean options! We also asked them what the difference was between white lotus and regular lotus but didn't get a clear answer.

    Coconut bun
    Jasmine G.

    Queen's Bakery is a must visit!! I stopped in after missing the bus and I'm so grateful to have missed it. First of all, their prices are so reasonable for LA. I saw lots of things I wanted to try, but ultimately I chose the "small" coconut bun for $3. This bun is HUGE! Bigger than my hand (and I have a quite large hand). The outside of the bun is slightly crunchy and inside is super soft and so yummy. Highly recommend!! (I even went back in to purchase another). My friend ordered a red bean flaky bun/cake and it was also very tasty. The service was quick and they were friendly. Please do yourself a favor and visit Queen's Bakery :)

    If you love strawberry and whipped cream, you'll love their strawberry cake! I've been coming here since I was a kid so this place is almost nostalgic for me! So many fond memories of chowing down on one of their cakes for my birthday! Queens Bakery will always be an easy 5 stars for me!

    Black Forest cake and Swan pastry
    Brenda L.

    The good: We got 3 pineapple buns, a slice of Black Forest cake and a swan cream Choux puff pastry. Whole cakes were around $30. The pineapple pastry was light and nice with a slightly crunchy sugary exterior. They had many cake and pastry options to choose from. The swan pastry was super cute and airy. The service was quick and efficient. The boxes that the cake was held in was cute and presentable if you buy gifts here. The bad: The Black Forest cake just had one cherry on it. It would've been nice if it had a layer of cherry jam or more cherries. The chocolate flavor also was subtle because the cake was that light chiffon style rather than a rich dens chocolate type of cake. The interesting: We parked on the street at a metered parking spot. I'm unsure if there's a parking lot nearby but it seemed like street parking is your best bet.

Mochi Twist ($5)-- Nice and dense mochi texture? I guess it's hard to describe but it's not hollow and airy like a typical donut. There's some chew to it. And it's not too sweet! Blueberry Roti ($4)-- Flaky crumble on top and blueberry jam?? YES YESSSS. I liked this so much I'd definitely go back for it. Blueberry jam is so underrated and it's rare to find it in a pastry! Makes for a good sweet lil treat. Hot latte ($5)-- Perfect!! No complaints. Not too milky, not too light. Good ratio. I was actually kind of worried ordering a latte because not every place does it right but it's good here! Iced blueberry matcha ($6?)-- I see lots of good things about this drink on here but ooooooof... it missed the mark and by a LOOOT too. It was green sweet cereal milk. Where's the matcha? Where's the blueberry? It was so confusing because I see the green and I know I ordered matcha... but it's just sweet milk! And it's not even blueberry flavored milk. Did they forget the blueberry jam? Syrup? Whatever they use? Because it just tastes like the milk after a bowl of Frosted Flakes or something like that. Very sad, very disappointing. Ended up tossing after a couple sips. ANDDD for those matcha purists this is NOOOT the place for you! They have it pre mixed in a milk gallon. So we just saw green milk coming out of a gallon into this cup like yeppppp ok expectations immediately lowered. Anyways, hot latte is good and the 2 pastries I got were good! Steer clear of the matcha!!!

Previously the lemon one and the most recent was the Raspberry Pistachio which I was impressed by as I just fancied sweet and refreshing combo of white chocolate and raspberry. The pistachio added more texture to it for sure. Same as any Levain cookies, best enjoyed warm and fresh out of oven. The Cookie Milk Latte was actually the main reason bringing me here, yet I was bit let down by it as I was expecting more malty cookie flavor in the drink. I felt it tasted not much different to regular cream top latte with some cookie crumbles in it.

Service: Polite/typical. Was fast for how busy it was. Overall a good breakfast choice, especially considering the variety of pastry options!

I got a sausage bbang, a chocopie, and a dalgona latte. The sausage bbang was soggy on the bottom and honestly tasted like it was from the day before. The chocopie barely had any filling, just a thin layer of marshmallow and jam. It honestly felt like they used most of the marshmallow for their Dubai choco cookie because it's probably more profitable, instead of properly filling the chocopie. If that's the case, it's better not to sell it at all than serve something like that. The dalgona latte was also disappointing. With ice, the drink only filled to the bottom third line of the cup marking. Clearly, they skimped on the milk. There was also a weird moment when I paid. My total was $15.25 and I paid cash, but I was given $4.75 in change. When I said it should be $5, she seemed confused and asked what I meant. I told her I literally gave you a quarter right now, and she questioned it before eventually giving me the correct change. I'll give her the benefit of the doubt and assume it was a mistake. I understand times are hard, but charging more for products that clearly had corners cut doesn't sit right with me. It just comes across like there's no integrity. Clearly the quality and portions are going downhill. I wasn't even planning on writing this review. I was going to stay quiet, but the chocopie really ticked me off. I'm not going to pay for food that skims on ingredients and shortchanges customers by charging more for less, so this will be my last visit.
