I came for the food walk and snagged a mango sticky rice cookie before it sold out! I loved seeing all the other small vendors too I will definitely be back to try some coffee & nougat bites. Staff were very friendly, the shop is small and it was busy & crowded so expect a line (so worth it)!

Anh Oi bake shop is such a fantastic small business in the CID. I love that they feature a rotation of bakers and also host coffee/dessert popups. It's a small cozy space so people mostly float around and pick up some baked goods to go. Their signature cookies have unique flavors, some of my favorites include the Thai tea persimmon and the fried banana. I've tried two coffee/matcha popups. Aufe's lychee matcha latte and Happy Alley's mango sticky rice matcha are both spectacular.

Food - obs the cookies are my #1. im a stan from day 1. the strawberry corn is prob my fav cookie ever in life. nothing will ever compare. we also tried a few other sweets from the other vendors. bread and a rice krispie that was also really good. we got drinks from au phe. Service - the best. very friendly. happy to explain any food items. theres even a microwave in case you want to heat up your goodies while you enjoy your drinks. a good spot to chill since they have a few chairs set up. Ambiance - so cute inside. bring a book. live your ghibli dream.

Inside during grand opening party
Vinh M.

I've been following Vince Vu's vision of nostalgia and identity through cookies ever since I had the Saigon Soul cookie from a Tet event at Anchovies and Salt earlier this year, and have gotten his cookies several times in other events since. Now he finally has a physical location for his goods, and even has many other independent bakers along with him here! I went during the first day of soft opening on Friday 5/15/26 around 2pm and the grand opening party on Saturday 5/23/26 around 11am, so this review will encompass both days. Interior comprises of space for Vince's Anh Oi cookies along with indie bakers, ceramics creators and even a coffee vendor, all under one roof and giving emphasis to bringing a community together through food. I've heard that the bakers rotate every now and then, so I'm very intrigued to get to have the pastries of many indies the more I come here in the future! For the soft opening visit, I was greeted by Vince himself, who was handing out samples of many of the products throughout the store, and he and others around welcomed and struck conversations with me and everyone coming inside. Many products were still in stock despite me coming in later than the actual opening time of the store of 9am, so I was able to snag some cookies and a couple of pastries that piqued my interest. I also grabbed a black sesame coffee drink that absolutely kept me awake in the best way. For the grand opening party, products from the soft opening still remained along with a couple other new items that would be best eaten the day of, such as in-house made matcha ice cream, large and delicious tiramisu cakes, uniquely flavored cream puffs and aesthetically colorful parfaits. Line system was relatively smooth for crowd control, and Vince and some of the bakers themselves were handing out their samples to everyone waiting in line in a similar fashion to the soft opening day. It was awesome getting to meet some of the bakers too! I grabbed myself some more cookies along with pastries that I didn't get a chance to try at their soft opening day, along with a lychee matcha drink from the same coffee vendor. This is such a unique business concept to have in the CID, and I see myself coming back here way more than once to get more cookies, check out the rotating indies, and in general support the very friendly environment that Vince's vision is creating!

Entrance (5/15/26)

I first came upon Anh Oi Bake Shop after trying a cookie at TruLe Cafe near SLU/QA. I started following Vince Vu and his baking projects via IG and it definitely piqued my interest. I had an opportunity to stop in during the soft opening (5/15/26). Great program from Seattle Restored to place indie businesses in empty retail spots to revitalize neighborhoods. Anh Oi Bake Shop took it additional steps forward to share the space with fellow indie bakers, pastry chefs, coffee purveyors, and other creatives. It encourages showcasing and strengthening community bonds. The brilliant idea also reinforces return visits to see the next group of rotating indies onsite. I was able to purchase more cookies, another baker/pastry chef's nougat, and have one of the best phin style coffees in the city. I am excited seeing a new wave of under 35 somethings do their business thing and flourish in the greater Seattle area. While in Seattle's CID/Japantown, be sure to stop in and visit. Help support this innovative business model. **Grand opening is scheduled for Saturday 5/23/26**

Baked goods from Anh Oi, Sweet Dreams Bake, and Elleevate

If you are looking for uniquely delicious baked goods and drinks with Asian flares, or to support a small business owned by a super nice guy, or you want are looking for a community where Asians support each other, you definitely need to check out this bakery. I took my kid to the Grand Opening event this Saturday, and it was so much fun to watch a room of talented Asian bakers showcase their creations to celebrate this much needed space. I truly love the concept of trying products from multiple and rotating bakers. The drinks from Aufe are also amazing - I didn't know lychee with coffee and matcha can taste so good; also owners are just the nicest! I'm so excited for my haul, and I can't wait to come back to try more!

blushberry
Joy P.

wow is this a gem of a place! i ran in to check it out as i was doing saturday errands and the curation of items (aprons, ceramics, baked goods, etc) is so great and so representative of diverse communities in our region i had to spread the wealth so i got a thai tea persimmon cookie, a pandan coconut rice krispie treat and a delicious blushberry (non caffeinated) drink. it was really hard to decide but i did so knowing i will come back and explore other menu options this summer. i truly hope they do well in the coming weeks and into the fall and winter. fingers crossed that other people value and understand the goal of giving voice and storefront access to various artisans. in my opinion. a genius idea!

Good place to get cookies around Seattle Chinatown. Overall, the cookie was good, maybe I wasn't a huge fan of the fried banana coo, wish the flavor was a bit more stronger with more banana pieces. Other than that, the cookie was more of the plain side, I would come back and try something else!

Vietnamese coffee and white chocolate chip cookie
Luis M.

Only briefly went in with a friend who was grabbing some stuff. Tried two of their cookies, the Vietnamese coffee and the fried banana. Vietnamese coffee cookie smelled wonderful but wish it tasted more like coffee, very chocolate forward which isn't a bad thing. The fried banana cookie, however. Go for this alone, warm it up in the microwave and enjoy one of the best cookies you'll ever have. Soft, chewy and warm, and that delicious caramelized banana flavor. I've been thinking about this cookie for the past week now, go try one asap. Ended up going during the Japantown market and this was one of the participating businesses. Staff is super friendly, and it was a cute little spot. Not a lot of seating if I remember correctly, but I definitely want to go back and try their coffee

I love love love this place! My favorite place for exquisite pastries of all time! Anytime that…read moreI'm in Seattle this is a MUST stop for me. Closed on Mondays and Tuesdays. It smells so wonderful and warm when you enter and it's really a feast for your eyes. Everything looks so delicious and it's hard to choose. The staff was ver patient with me. My "go to" is the most famous twice baked almond croissant. On this visit ordered the "go to" , blueberry ginger scone, ratatouille sandwich, turkey havarti sandwich, banana bread, and some Americanos to go. This is not a sit down cafe so we thoroughly enjoyed them in the parked car. :) Every bite should be savored. Extraordinary!

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.

Came around 1-2pm on a weekend and they still had a full pastry case! I always love seeing that…read morelater in the day since some other cafes are getting empty around that time. 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! One of the best bakeries I've been to in Seattle so far.

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. It was incredibly delicious, perfectly filling, and even better when warmed up. The staff member kindly offered to heat it for me, which really elevated the whole experience. 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.

I've been hesitant to visit Sea Wolf Bakers due to their prices. $8 baguette? Oomph. Well, in early…read moreMarch I finally decided to give them a try. And now I'm a regular... Through several visits: Baguette, Large ($7.95) - Great baguette with bubbling golden exterior complete with the perfectly baked crust even after waiting 3 hours before cutting in and eating. The interior has the perfect moisture level and is delightfully soft and chewy. The taste overall has a deep developed flavor. This is a great baguette. The only problem - the price. I can find ones for half the price that are maybe 80% as good as this one. (5/5) Seasonal Biscuit ($4.50) - This biscuit definitely isn't Southern-style. It's more of a drop biscuit, combining a relatively soft and tender interior with a nice exterior crust, without any flakiness or layering. The interior is almost cake-like in texture and crumb, and is plenty moist. They add plenty of fresh black pepper inside. It's distributed very evenly, giving a peppery bite with every mouthful. Parmesan is added to the top of the biscuit before baking, giving plenty of umami and richness but only on the upper layer. (4/5) Green Vinaigrette Cafeteria Style Pizza ($6.25) - The pizza is kept under a warming lamp, so it starts getting a little dried out after I assume a couple of hours spent there. I do love the base though - it's focaccia-like giving a really crunchy dark golden brown crust underneath, which supports the toppings. The pizza slice has lots of structural integrity and doesn't flop over. There's a base of fragrant concentrated tomato paste-like flavor which is topped with a very even layer of cheese. Since it's warmed rather than freshly baked, the cheese starts congealing a bit. The cheese is peppered with parsley, garlic, and a bunch of mustard seeds, giving a special zing. The toppings go all the way to the sides of the pie, making it great for people who dislike crust. Even though it's cafeteria style pizza that's kept under heat lamps, I quite liked it. I wonder if I can get a really fresh slice if I get there right at 11AM when lunch starts. (5/5) Chocolate Croissant ($6.10) - Great lamination with a very aesthetic honeycomb pattern. Baked on the harder side, causing fantastic crispy flaky layers to flake off, but also creating a darker golden brown character that is on the verge of bitterness. Nicely buttery soft and chewy interior. Chocolate is a darker variety, probably somewhere around 70%, so it has a pleasing balanced sweetness and chocolate flavor. It's not typical baton, instead seems to be a section from a bar. Still warm and melty even through I didn't eat the croissant until ~30 minutes after purchasing. When cooled down further, some red fruity notes start appearing, so this seems to be be pretty high quality. (5/5) White Sourdough ($12.60) - Now this is a loaf of bread. Superb crust, probably 2 or 3 times as thick compared to competitors, creating a supreme crusty bite with a chew approaching a hard crunch with almost caramelized molasses notes on the bottom. The interior is moist and tender with a pleasing slight sourdough tang. It's a superb piece of craftsmanship. (5/5) Kouign Amann ($5.80) - This is another heavier bake with some acridity development on the top surface. Unlike many other bakeries where the kouign amann is basically a differently shaped croissant with sugar glaze, Sea Wolf's version feels more in line with tradition. The crumb is denser and richer, more like brioche. There's interesting black speckling inside which I believe is due to the inclusion of espresso powder given the mild coffee-like flavor. The crust is again baked hard, but it's lighter and not as flaky as the croissant. They sprinkle just a bit of salt on top of a very light caramelized sugar glaze. It's not very sweet and I didn't find it too salty unlike some other reviewers. (5/5) Plain Focaccia Slice ($4.80) - Good quality olive oil, some salt sprinkled on top to boost the flavors. Light and airy interior, but the exterior is a little wan, being more light golden brown and lacking some good crusty crisp especially on the fried bottom. Quite oily. (4/5) Sea Wolf gives out free sourdough starter, which can be requested from the cashier. Since picking it up several weeks ago, I've gone through several feed/bake cycles for making sourdough focaccia. I've visited Sea Wolf 3 or 4 times in the last month. That's a testament to how high quality their pastries and breads are. I think the only thing stopping me from visiting more is thanks to the starter I got from them fanning my baking instincts. I bake so much now that I don't have any need to buy their bread! Note: Sea Wolf charges a 3% credit card fee. This is not noted on their menu - it only appears in the POS right before paying. Kind of sketchy. Bathrooms - Single unisex room

The pretzel didn't taste that salty or much like a pretzel and was moist (almost wet) and chewy, which I didn't like. The lye roll was the one bright spot; it tasted more like a pretzel than the pretzel, salty with a nice airy, flavorful interior. The tofu sandwich was pre made and served cold, and the bottom piece of bread was starting to fall apart because it was so soggy. The breads were all ok but overpriced, especially the baguette; $8 is crazy, especially when other bakeries nearby sell better ones for $3. The service was quick (4/5).

They currently offer Matcha, Hoji-Tea, Kuro-Goma (black sesame), and Yuzu (Japanese citrus). The shop itself is very small since it's basically a window shop, either renting space from or connected to Tamari Bar. It's more like a little dessert stand located on the restaurant's patio area, with only a few outdoor tables available. The soft serve was okay, but not as creamy as I was hoping for, and it melted pretty quickly. If you decide to add a syrup flavor, I'd recommend asking for only a small amount. Mine came absolutely drowning in syrup, and honestly, the flavor tasted pretty artificial and overpowering.
