    I stopped by Sweet Bakery and tried the egg tart and the coconut cream filled bread--both classics, and they did not disappoint. Everything was very good, not overly sweet, and hit the right spot. The only downside is the location... it's on a busy street in Chinatown, so it can get a bit chaotic with foot traffic and seems to attract some unwanted loiterers at times. Service was good overall; the staff was helpful and friendly, even with the language barrier. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area and craving a sweet treat!

    Sweet Bakery is a newer Chinese bakery in the CID, replacing what used to be an 85C. They have a good selection of baked goods, including various breads and pastries, steamed buns, cakes, even some light sandwiches. Pricing is between $3 and $4 for most buns, which isn't bad for Seattle. Reviews both here and on Google indicate a terrible owner, although I can't verify that. The cashier, at least, was extremely welcoming and polite. He spoke both English and Mandarin fluently. When I visited, there was a small selection of BOGO pastries near the register. Interestingly enough, it was buy one from the regular display cases, get one of those for free. I'm not sure if they were day old or just misshapen pastries. Milky Roll ($3.25) - This is a coconut cream bun. Soft, slightly sweet and chewy milk bread is cut in the center and filled with a very light and soft cream, then dusted with shredded coconut. The cream seems to be some type of stabilized whipped cream, a bit on the oily side which makes it adhere to the lips while eating. Otherwise there's not really anything else to comment about. It's a good light treat. (4/5) Ham & Cheese Bun ($3.95) - Same soft base but this time paired with a kind of tough and dry piece of ham, some creamy mayo, and lots of cheese that's a little gummy. The pastry overall is extremely oily, leaving a film of grease anywhere it touches. (3/5) Ham & Cream Cheese Bun ($3.95) - This includes some fatty, kind of gelatinously chewy bacon with cheese. Again, extremely oily and kind of unpleasant to touch. There's no mayo in this one, nor any cream cheese or ham, so I have no idea why they call it a "ham & cream cheese bun." Perhaps they put it on the wrong shelf? (3/5) Green Tea Red Bean Glutinous Rice Ball ($4.75) - This comes with three pieces. These are very fresh, with a super soft and airy, yet bouncy exterior, similar to a softer mochi. The pounded glutinous rice covers a large ball of sweetened red bean paste. The paste is very smooth with no hint of grittiness or red bean skin whatsoever. The taste of the brownish green exterior definitely has some green tea powder incorporated giving it a somewhat earthy and grassy taste, although not to the point of tasting like matcha. The outside is dusted with coconut shreds. It's sweet but not too sweet. (4/5) Sweet Bakery is a pretty average classic Chinese bakery. They don't do anything that separates them from competitors, but there's not really anything bad about their offerings either. They'll easily do in a pinch. Besides, it's always nice to see a new independent business pop up in a storefront that's been vacant for years. Bathrooms - At least one unisex room, possibly two, that require a code to enter.

    I've got to give Sweet Bakery some love! Asian bakery on a somewhat rough and tumble corner in the ID that has seen many businesses come and go. Like alot of Asian style bakeries, you grab a cafeteria tray and tongs, select your goodies and pay at the counter. If i am coming from the chinatown/ID light link rail station I will usually go in and grab a few bags of the cookies to take to work. These are always a big hit! Not too sweet so you can just keep eating them. Favorites include sesame, cherry and chocolate. They come in "made with love" labeled bags which is a nice touch. Inside is clean and organized. Please support this local business!!

    Newest Chinese bakery to come into Chinatown-International District! I haven't heard any social media posts about it just yet, perhaps I will have to make a video on them, but I noticed they took over the old 85 bakery that was here after walking by. I came in yesterday, and staff told me they opened this past Friday, seems to still be in a soft opening stage. There's a decent amount of items here, I grabbed my favourite hot dog buns and they were super delicious and soft to the bite! I do think there could be even more options for pastries, but I have to try their drink menu too. Will definitely be coming back for more!

    This rating is actually a 3.5. I went here with some friends after one of them said they wanted to try it out. It's a cute looking shop. I wish they had a few more options as there were a lot of empty spots but they seemed to be out for the day. With what they had left we all chose our own items. I decided to get a butter bun and some walnut cookies. They're not too bad. The staff were ready at the register at all times. If you're in the area, I'd say it's worth it but I don't think it's going to be a go-to for me personally.

    New bakery to try in Seattle! They specialize in Chinese bakery. Unfortunately I wasn't blown away like I wanted to be, but I did enjoy their vanilla cream puffs a lot. The cream was sweet and the pastry was good. It was around $4 for three of them. I found the other pastries, such as their red bean paste bread and pork floss bread okay. I've had good red bean paste bread in the past, and this restaurant's was not nearly as good at all. On top of that, it was almost like the bread was smashed down. It wasn't that sweet and the bread wasn't as great as it should be. Inside is pretty clean and new. There's a lot of pastries available. They have less towards the end of the night since they don't make pastries anymore. Service was okay. Communication was a bit limited due to language. They don't have napkins laying around which sucked. I'm sure some people will love this bakery, while others not so much. I'd give this place a 3.5/5

    great prices + great quality!! usually around $5-$10 per person including tip! my pastry only rang up to 3.75

There's a menu posted while you wait in line to help you make up your mind. We decided to try the summer special, BBQ Pork Piroshky and we also got a sweet kind, Cardamom & Cinnamon Piroshky. Both were real good, seemed to be freshly made that day. Flavorful and satisfied our snack attack craving. Staff was friendly when we approached the counter, quick to take and pack up your order. I think it was about $7 per piroshky. We were satisfied and glad to have come by and have a Seattle staple at PPM. I plan to come back more often when in the area, it's pretty darn good!

The croissant was on the crispier side, especially with the almond crumble on top it was a bit too cripsy for me, but I tend to like soft and flakey pastries so it's probably a matter of taste. There was a TON of almond filling in the middle. I enjoyed the taste and texture but it was too much filling for me personally. I would have liked more croissant in my croissant, so to say haha. The chocolate was slightly dark which worked well with the sweet pastry and filling! Overall I enjoyed the croissant but it was a tad too heavy on the filling and cripsy/crunchy for me.

They have so many yummy options, but I settled on a mushroom and Gruyère pastry and an earl grey blueberry cruffin. The mushroom and Gruyère pastry was SO good!!! Buttery flaky layers of dough with a strong earthy mushroom flavor and savory cheese - an absolute umami bomb. We ate it the day after and threw it in the air fryer for a couple of minutes, and it was so delicious. The cruffin was huge! Topped with a delicious light Earl grey cream that wasn't too sweet. It was filled with a blueberry cream and was definitely very filling. There's a lot of sugar coating it, as is standard with cruffins, but it's a nice sweet treat. Definitely coming back for the mushroom and Gruyère pastry and to try their other delicious flavors. Their supreme croissant flavor switches often and we can't wait to try the next one!

I originally planned to just grab a coffee and a croissant, but after noticing how popular the mushroom Gruyere croissant seemed, I decided to give it a try and I'm so glad I did.

While they serve Umbria coffee, which isn't my personal favorite, the food more than made up for it. The service was warm and friendly, and the overall vibe was welcoming. I'll definitely be back to try the mushroom croissant again or maybe explore some of their other pastries next time.

If you can find parking in the Cap Hill area I would definitely consider this as an option for a sweet treat. I think the prices are really reasonable considering some of the other options. Staff: 5/5 (nice) Sanitation: 5/5 (clean) Soft serve w/syrups (5/5) I've had most of the syrups that they offer with their vanilla soft serve. The soft serve itself is a really creamy and rich vanilla milk flavor. I would say it's closer to that Asian milk flavor if you know what I mean. I think the hojicha syrup is my favorite out of all the ones I've tried so far. It has a really nice roasty flavor and not something you can find at most other places. The matcha I would say is my second favorite. The flavor of the matcha syrup is definitely lighter compared to the hojicha but still is a nice compliment to the soft serve. The black sesame would be the lowest on my list out of the, all since I felt like the flavor was too nutty like it was a blend of sesame and potentially a nut. Overall I would definitely go back for the hojicha but if you're not into that there's definitely solid options for other flavors.

I always see a line when I pass by but service is fast and they hand your dessert to you directly after ordering. There's no awkward mix-ups or other people taking your dessert which I like. Will be back at some point to try out their other flavors and for a smaller portion!

I have so many things that I need to go back and try, most likely with a group, so I can try lots of things. They do lots of specialty items, depending on the day which is a fun way to spice up their menu. I ended up going with the burrata focaccia sandwich which came with burrata, roasted bing cherries, pistachio butter, balsamic, arugula, and sea salt focaccia. SOOOO yummy. Great sandwich, and I am so glad that they did lunch items early in the AM. The cherries were such a unique addition to the sandwich but worked well, and they were also representative of the local area (Rainier Cherries). I wish that there was flaky salt on the bread. I didn't get much salt flavor wise, even though is says sea salt focaccia. The focaccia bread was soft which is my preference for focaccia.

Overall, I'd say their pastries were generally good not great and were significantly sogged up by 12:30 PM when I grabbed em. Their patisserie is stronger than the pastries IMO and while I wouldn't wait in a crazy line, it's still lovely neighborhood spot and perhaps the pastries are a better texture earlier in the day. Highlights: - Miso Roasted White Chocolate Cronut: My favorite item in their current rotation. The cronut was a tad soggy, but the buttery texture inside is still satisfying and the miso white chocolate filling is lusciously smooth and perfectly balanced between savory and sweet. - Blackberry Corn Mousse Cake: Blueberry mousse is the perfect fluffy texture and the corn is very subtle. The sponge cake is light and perfectly contrasts against the bottom layer of crunchies to add a bit of variety. - Blueberry Corn Croissant: Pastry also held up quite well on this one with the outside still being quite crisp. The inner cream unlike the mousse cake is very corn forward with a bit of blueberry jam to balance it out. Skip: - Black Forest Cake: Found the cake to be a bit too firm with the cream filling to be a little bland and too firm as well. Just wanted this to be better than it was. Also, it looks totally different from the photo on their website heads up. - Tomato Basil Croissant: Just found this to be off ratio wise. The only tomato is the 3 small quarters of cherry tomato at the top and a light smear of basil cream. I can see this being very good, but current form factor isn't doing it any favors.
