Note: Parking may be difficult since it's Chinatown. Pro Tip: Bring cash unless you plan to buy $15+ worth of items. Most bakery items cost $2-$4 aside from specialties such as cakes. - - - - - - I knew i had to stop by Queen's Bakery when I saw it. I'm not sure what allure drew me in but it felt right. I had their curry beef pie, cupcake, and one of their milk breads. The curry beef pie was alright, and the cupcake was a little on the fluffier though lighter side for sweetness. The milk bread was just right and tasty. I cant wait to come back and try the rest of their menu, since the items were very fairly priced. read more

3.8/5 Coconut bread is very good... hint of coconut in each slice and very milky and soft... they serve great bread here! Their strawberry almond cake was actually very good... I prefer it over Phoenix's. It's soft and milky with just enough almonds, nothing overpowering, not too nutty. The focus really is on the cake... Unfortunately the cream puff pastry (forgot name) wasn't all that good... flaky but a bit too hard for my liking. But overall a legitimate bakery in the town! read more

I was really craving a sweet treat after my lunch and stumbled across this quaint bakery right in the heart of Chinatown. It's a small shop that pick up and go style. No indoor seating and very minimal street parking. Everything looked fresh and overall experience was wonderful. The items I got were good but not anything above average. The service was great and the employees were all very kind and attentive. I got for cream cones, two cake pops, and tiramisu for roughly $22. read more

Driving back to Cen. Cal. I make a special side trip to Queens for their popular Rice Puffs( Sachima ) . Freshly made daily and well worth driving out of my to buy them. I regret that I only bought 2 boxes. I also regret I forgot to buy the Pineapple Buns. Everything is good at Queens. What looked very yummy was the Mango Cake. If I had an ice chest with me ,I would have bought it *** May is API Heritage month. Support Asian owned businesses. Stop # 5 of 13. May 9 2023 *** read more

We traveled to the LA area and picked up boxes of the puffs, which I have loved for decades. They are as good as I remember. I asked the bakery if they would freeze well; they didn't know. Well, I froze a box and it's still good after 3 months. Note: We kept themrefrigerated. read more

Sachima/Rice Puffs here a perfect example of "if its not broken, don't fix it". Our family has very fond memories of my Grandfather on the Chinese side buying these as a snack for the family. It's remained unchanged since then except the wonderful pink boxes are replaced by something terribly photoshopped and more modern. I LOVE how the staff is a mix of old chinese people and younger hispanic people, an example of gentrification that seems natural and makes me smile. These are like Rice Cripsies but less sweet and with a subtle hint of coconut and sesame. However, no one makes them like Queen's, they are soft and moist and incredible if this was introduced to your palette before. I've tried the same thing in SF, Oakland, NY Chinatown and all of them pale in comparison. Read through the reviews and you'll see how much people love the Sachima. They are way better than the same thing found at other good Chinese Bakeries. Do note if you never had something like this you probably won't like it, my wife didn't like them at all and calls them "soggy rice crispies". Also had a meat pastry and apple pastry and would not recommend them. read more

Queen's Bakery - Look at the quality of that "wife cake" - Bakeries Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I truly didn't want to write this review. This bakery is a staple in Chinatown. I grew up eating this bakery's cakes. Every holiday or birthday celebration this was "the spot" to get our bread, cakes, cupcakes and more. With that being said, on Friday I walked in, placed an order for a TALL WHITE CAKE, no decor just simple WITH FRUIT INSIDE. Without hesitation I was charged $120 I trusted them and in return they SCAMMED ME! When I picked up on Saturday, I picked up an all white cake without being properly finished, not slicked, air bubbles, marks of starting and ending point of the batter, the cake WASN'T TALL, I did ask the older man would you pay $120 for this presentation? he looked down but HE DIDN'T CARE. I mean why would he if the cake was already paid for.Then a Hispanic lady came out trying to insult my intelligence and carried herself rude and unprofessional. Fast forward to the cake cutting, my fruit was missing. For reference I have attached photos. I was better off buying one of their $45 cakes that are inside the glass counter. I'm very disappointed and I did let them know. It breaks my heart because I won't be coming back and maybe they'll read this review and roll their eyes. They broke a relationship not with a new customer but our family has been buying Queen cakes for decades. Hope my review helps. read more

Solid Chinese pastries in LA's Chinatown. My mom wanted to stop by this bakery as she heard from friends that their sachima (rice puffs) were really good, so we came on a Sunday morning. We bought only their sachima and almond cookies. It's $7 for a box of both, with 40 cookies in a box and 12 sachima pieces. Prices aren't bad. I actually wasn't a huge fan of either when I tried them, though the sachima grew on me the more I tried. Their sachima has hints of coconut which I'm not used to from the store bought packages, and the almond cookies didn't have as much of a fragrant almond flavor as I was expecting. Note: $15 min for credit card card Note 2: parking is all metered street parking, but it's free on Sundays so come then! read more

Every time my family, friends, and I visit LA, Queen bakery is a place we must stop by to get the rice puffs. I have been eating rice puffs since I was little and no one makes it as good and as fresh as this place. This is definitely a souvenir you must bring home to let your family and friends try. read more

This is one of the oldest bakeries in LA Chinatown. We have always gone there for their boxes of flaky & tasty almond cookies. It is take-out, & almost always crowded. Service is fast. Street parking only. read more

I visited queens bakery today in New Years! I was really craving some bread! So I decided to check it out for the first time in years. Over the last few months, I called multiples times to see if they have their lemon roll and they did not. Asked them when they usually make lemon rolls and they said it was random and there was no specific schedule. They did have chocolate and vanilla though. Lo and behold, I see that they have like 5 lemons rolls!!! - Lemon Roll $6 - Over the years the roll is much shorter and it used to be $4 years ago but it tasted just as good! - Coconut Bread - While there was coconut flakes in between the bread, it was lacking a lot of coconut flavor and overall it was just okay. A few years ago it was super coconutty and was probably toasted before baking - taro bread and custard bun - tasty pretty good! Because of the pandemic they also started selling bags of rice as shown on their display before you walk in! read more

This place really is the queen of bakeries! From their cakes to their pastries, everything I've tried is delicious. For the people saying parking sucks, you're right!! But did you know they validate from a near by parking?! Anyway, service is also very good, could be faster if they were to upgrade their system but no complaints. Also it could be overwhelming as they don't have a "line" system. The times Ive been there people walk in and next thing you know they're paying before you. Gotta be fast paced here. If you're in China Town, don't forget to visit them. read more

I came to visit Chinatown for the first time and one of my first stops was Queen's bakery. There is very limited parking in this area and I ended up paying $5 dollars for all day parking at a local parking lot. The woman working there was very kind and there was no one else in the bakery at the time. I tried the fruit tart and the Tres Leches cup, both were very good and the fruit on top were fresh. I would love to come here again and try more items from here. There is nowhere to sit which can be pretty typical for a bakery but it was the reason I decided against purchasing an actual slice of cake. read more

I finally made it to Queen's to buy rice puffs. On a Saturday morning, my sister and I found parking on the street and went there to buy rice puffs. They had loaves of bread and Cake slices displayed too. I purchased a whole box $8.50. I took a bite and it was soft and yummy not sweet. I think it was crispier when I ate these back in late 1970's. The quality and taste looked the same. read more

Whenever we are in SoCal we always make a quick stop here for rice cakes and almond cookies. Both are a favorite!

Im obsessed with their coconut raisin buns - they fill it with so much coconut and raisin! The bread is perfectly soft and slightly sweet. The filling is so addicting. If you are a coconut fan you have to try their coconut raisin buns! Only 3 dollars so cheap and huge! read more

They have the best rice puff (sachima) that I've ever had. All the ones I had before were sweeter with a more chewy/harder texture, which can sometimes stick to your teeth. Their sachima is more fluffy and light in flavor. It has a bit of coconut flakes I believe. Whenever we are close in the downtown LA area, we will always try to make a stop there to buy a box or two of sachima. The price is also very reasonable with $8.50 for a box of 12. I will definitely want to go back and try their other baked goods. read more

Typical Chinese bakery but their rice puffs / sachima is amazing, not too sweet and super soft! There's also a hint of coconut that is not overpowering! My parents LOVE this and every time I go down to LA, I'll stop by to get them a box or 2. I haven't tried their other pastries so this is just for their rice puffs / sachima. They're $8.50 a box and you get 12 pieces. read more

A friend was visiting from LA and brought queens amazing Sachima, the rice puffs from here are better than anywhere else and also very unique with most other rice puffs not even close to queens version. My grandfather used to buy this so I have very fond memories of it. It's like a way less sweet rice crispy, a bit more moist and soft, with a subtle coconut flavor. It survived the 6 hours drive to the Bay Area and still tasted fresh and good, it comes wrapped in plastic and then boxed which helps retain the moisture. The only difference I can tell is the box is no longer the generic pink box with a branding stamp on it, they have custom boxes now! read more

If in Chinatown you need to pick up a box or two of the 12 piece puff pastry which is what they are known for as well as their square sheet cakes. I been going to Queens since I was a child in the 70's . Not many places in Chinatown still exist. read more

I love their rice puff as a family brought one back for me long time ago and I remember eating the whole box by myself. When my MIL knew I was visiting LA, she asked me to pick some up for her. I had to clear out my luggage to make room to take back 6 boxes of the rice puffs. Went through security and these rice puff caused some delay as they had to check it twice and open up my luggage and test it with the drug strips to see if it contain any illegal substances. But you must get them when in LA. they are the made the best here. read more

**September 2021 Visit: LA Mask Mandate Enforced** I've been on an asian sweets kick lately so I wanted to check out all the iconic bakeries! A good friend set the bar really high for Queen's Bakery as it was known for several items. Naturally, I added it on my list of places to visit I visited during the Mid-Autumn Moon Festival weekend and there were many MANY mooncakes displayed in their freezer. Up on top they had their signature rice puffs (2 pieces) and almond cookies (6 cookies). I grabbed both and believe it was less than $5. The rice puff was fine in my opinion; however, I wonder if it wasn't an accurate representation of their product as the rice puff seemed more stiff than light and airy. Makes me think that these were made in advance versus made that morning. Perhaps I'll come back to see if my mind can be changed. The almond cookies were definitely not my favorite. It wasn't bad by any means. I just prefer light and flaky almond cookies and these were more crispy and slightly more dense. I guess it's baked longer and has that firm bite. Overall, my impression was it was okay. read more

Last-minute purchase for a cake. Very accommodating and friendly. Purchase a mango cake. Fluffy fruit on top was delicious. Had meat and beef pies. Fluffy crispy on the outside. Cook perfectly inside. Purchased cake pops, chocolate and vanilla. Kids enjoyed them. Looking forward to go back to try the rest of the pastries. read more

Traveled from Northern Ca to buy their almond cookies all the time. They are the best, very light and airy, simply delicious.

Taro twist roll was absolutely fantastic, and loved the baked almonds on top. My friend really liked the sachima cakes, although they are different from what I'm used to. Almond cookies are some of the best I've had, and it's definitely better than the store bought kinds (which I actually like a lot). Tons of variety of pastries. Better than your Chinese pastry chain, for sure. read more

My mom loves their almond cookies. I stopped by to pick up a box of 40. I believe it was ~ $8-9. Really fresh and crumbly and not too sweet. I also pick up rice puff, not my favorite, it was not as chewy and sweet as the prepackaged ones that I am used to eating growing up. It's more flakey, if that's what you like, definitely worth trying at least once. They take credit card not sure if there was an extra charge to it read more

We came here on a Sunday afternoon and it was pretty busy. There was a straightforward line that we went through while grabbing the items of our choice. We ended up getting an egg custard pastry and a strawberry Oreo cream dessert. They only take cash but there is an atm inside the store (probably charges a fee to use it). They have most of the standard Chinese pastries and desserts but I think they were out of the popular egg tarts and Chinese fried donuts (if they have it at all). Overall though, I enjoyed our treats here and paid $5.50 for two desserts. read more

Affordable and decent tasting pastries in the Chinatown District. I tried the taro bun, sachima, and almond cookies, total $13. I have more of a sweet tooth, so these pastries were on the blander side for me which was OK. I was most excited about the almond cookies, but they weren't sweet enough for me. They did melt nicely and had a soft texture. I imagine elderly folks would really enjoy these pastries given the softness of the breads and cookies and they are not too sweet. Recommend trying at least one time if you are in the LA area. read more

Always tasty not too sweet like other bakery's, it's light and fluffy nice family owned place. Street Parking can be a hassle.

I finally got my hands on a box of rice puffs/Chinese rice crispies. It is not crispy like American rice crispies but more on the softer side. It is not too sweet and coated with light coconut on one side. A box contains one dozen for $8.50. A box of forty almond cookies also $8.50. Cookies here are lighter and less sweet compared to a nearby bakery. Smaller packaging also available. Both goodies are a taste from my childhood when my parents' friend from LA were visiting. read more
