Baker's Palace is my new go-to for Bánh mì sandwiches. Despite their amazing low prices compared to most nearby competitors in the area, they are incredibly filling and high quality considering the low price. The bread, fillings, and sauce are all great on the several sandwiches I've tried. read more

Great bread, good value, mediocre filling. Date of Visit: 9/19/16 I found my favorite Bahn Mi spot closed on Mondays, but noticed that Baker's Palace was quite close, and open, so I gave it a go. It's a quite small spot with a carryout area and very friendly service. As far as the sandwiches themselves, they have probably the best baguettes you'll find in the area. I'm not a bread-head, but these were *legit*. That said, I the fillings were lacking a bit in both seasoning and amount, including both meats and veggies. Additionally, their sammies are on the small side, i.e. you probably need two to equal the size of one of the other places in the area. Overall this is a solid spot, but they are overshadowed by their neighbors' offerings. read more

Wow, I haven't been here since they changed owners... which has probably been a couple of years. The last owners were great, so I really didn't think the new ones would be able to live up to the previous owners, I was wrong. Their sandwiches are delicious, but what makes them different from the other Banh mi shops is that they make this little meat filled pastry.. I honestly don't know what they're called, but they're delicious. The pastry is buttery and flaky and they only make a certain amount each day, so you have to get them before they sell out. Service is great, the girl that works at the register is super cheerful and really sweet. read more

Been coming here since I was young and everything still tastes the same. One of my go-to bakery whenever I'm craving a Vietnamese Banh Mi Sandwich. I always go for the combination with head cheese ( it's the last number) and it has extra BBQ meat in it. It depends on who you deal with but they will give you a side of sauce to smoother on top of your sandwich. The people here are super friendly! Also, if you buy 5 sandwiches, you get one free. The deal isn't as great as back home (L.A.) where you buy two and get one for free but it's still pretty good. read more

Baker's Palace - Combination with extra BBQ PORK - Bakeries Near Me - Denver, Colorado

This was one of my favorite bánh mì shops from my childhood, went here today with my mother since we were nearby, thought we stop in to get chè (Vietnamese dessert drink) it was disappointing we ordered 2 #9 and the sad part was there was barely any fruits in the drinks one slice of Jack fruit that's it, it's filled with jelly but one small piece of Jack fruit that was probably rotting tasted very bitter and quiet soggy, ice took most of the space in the cup barely any coconut milk, for the bánh mì thịt, it was good as always nothing much had changed. Probably won't be visiting this shop anymore. (Heard they changed ownership) read more

If like me you subscribe to the belief that a crummy looking place on the inside has just as much potential to be a winner as a nice looking place, then you are off to a good start with Baker's Palace. You'd never mistake this place for a Palace... I've learned that when you are in Italy, ask the locals. In this case I was on Federal Blvd eating Vietnamese eating @ my favorite place in Denver, New Saigon, when I had the idea to ask our waiter where he liked to get "Bánh mì" which are Vietnamese sandwiches made on French Baguettes. I had watched a recent episode of Anthony Bourdain's "No Reservations" where he revisits Vietnam and on that episode, he pigs out on Bánh mì. So the waiter pointed me to a place only one block up, Bakers Palace. Had it not been recommended, I would never had stopped. Am I glad that I did. They were out of the Pork Bánh mì so I got the #1, the combo which was basically ham and cold cuts type sliced meat. Wow, it was delicious! And only $2.75! My kids got a cake sampler that they liked. I will definitely be going back to check this place out! More info on Bahn Mi here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bahn_mi read more

Best Banh Mi in Colorado baby!!! Had the combo banh mi and it was fireeee recommend to anyone read more

I've been wanting to try banh mi for a very long time, and after asking around BP got the most votes so that's where we went. I ordered the #9 which seems to be a favorite of this place and it was very tasty. The only thing I'd change would be that I'd add a little more meat with more sauce, as it was a bit dry - but it was good. For the price, you can't beat it. (2) of us each had a banh mi and shared a dessert and our total was $7 and change. I'll definately be going back and trying something new. read more

The freshest banh mi in town. They bake their items fresh and at that location. I recommend the charbroiled pork sandwich, the vietnamese iced coffee, the boba is soft and chewy in all the smoothies, and they do good Vietnamese dessert items. A must try for all who visit Denver. Don't be misled by the Torta and Mexican type illustrations on the window. read more

Nom nom... My SO likes to order more than 7 sandwiches at a time for just the two of us. It's usually gone within 2 days. Baker's Palace is a quaint little building off of Federal and if you don't keep your eyes open, you might miss it. Inside they offer a visual menu of the different sandwiches you can order. I hear they use olive oil? Good prices, good sandwiches!! read more

Baker's Palace - Banh mi thit nuong - Bakeries Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Fantastic Bahn Mi sandwiches! People that run it are super friendly and prices are cheap. Go try it.

This. Place. Rules. The absolute real deal, banh mi is affordable (should not cost more than $5 for true Viet banh mi), service at the counter is kind, courteous, and quick. TRY THE PORK BUNS --- absolutely game changing. $5 CC minimum, but there should be no problem going well beyond that. Try some of the fresh prepared Vietnamese sweet rice desserts or savory filled rice delicacies wrapped in banana leaves. This is the type of small business any city, but Denver especially, should value and support. In honest truth, I am heading there right now. read more

Been going here since I was young. It is the only banh mi place I order from. The special red sauce they make is delicious and my favorite is the egg one, sooo good. There Vietnamese desserts are delicious as well, especially the sweet rice. read more

Another one of my favorite haunts - till the new ownership. The counter people are a bit standoffish at times. I would give it a 5 - but the new owners appear to be skimping on the meat quality now. They did start selling a lot of new items, so I'm not that bummed out over some dry meat on occasion... If you are on a budget after a long day of drinking expensive coffee down town, head over here. It is by far the cheapest sandwich you will find in town - especially being made on an in house, fresh made baguette. Most Bahn Mi sammiches on the board are $2.75. I dig on the chicken or the pork. As an added bonus, they have a pretty good Bahn Bao - steamed bun with Vietnamese sausage and half a boiled egg. It's only $2.00. I haven't tried it lately, but I use to get extra veggies added for no extra charge. What can I say, I'm a sucker for that stuff. Except for the Jalapeños, normal dose for me, they get some dang hot ones sometimes. If you are feeling bold, try some of the deserts or special items in the display case. I got something a couple weeks ago that was pretty dang good. I only wish I could remember what it was, sigh.... Bottom line: Super cheap, filling and decent quality. read more

Best Bahn Mi I've had in Denver and the staff is incredibly nice and helpful. The bread is really what sets them apart in my opinion, the sandwich fillings are on par with other places but the bread here is top notch. read more

This place fell out of favor with me a couple years ago. To the point where I told myself I would never eat here again. I heard that they completely did a 180 and decided to give it another try. I am so glad I did. They open much earlier than the other banh mi shops (7am vs 10 am for Vinh xuong). I do like the bread at vinh xuong better, but the pork buns at bakers palace has no rivals really. I highly recommend it. read more

Baker's Palace - Banh bao (pork buns) - Bakeries Near Me - Denver, Colorado

Best banh mi place based on my experience. I've been coming here since I was little and now I walk away spending $40 instead of my parents. The only place where I can get banh mi Xiu Mai. Not even in California can I get them. Xiu Mai is meatball so their version of a meatball sandwich but sooo much better. Their pastries are wonderful as well. We always get this meat filled pastry that I can't find anywhere else. I also always get their Che which is a sweet dessert soup that's freshly made. The service is really great. I really wanted one of the Che for Chinese New Year but someone already bought them all. It's a glutinous ball with mung bean inside. Literally a giant ball in a ginger liquid. They still gave me one anyways which was really sweet and it is now my current favorite. read more

Baker's Palace is fucking legit. I can't believe I didn't review this place yet, I've bought their sandwhiches about 30 times or so and have only had 2 quality issues I can think of out of 60 or 90 sandwhiches over that time. Friendly service from everyone, they speak English and it's CLEAN. I highly recommend the #9 pork with extra veggies. The bread is on point, the veggies are fresh and the meat delicious. The Boba are average to good. * This is the place I stop for food when I go hiking or snowboarding. They hold well and are still quite tasty after 4 hours in a lunch box. read more

I love this place, I used to go here every weekend to pick up a banh mi and nuoc mia. This place has been a stable in my life and I've told everyone I meet about this place. Their banh mi is one of the best and cheaper ones in federal. The ingredients are super fresh, and it reminded me of when I used to live in Vietnam. I tried other places like new Saigon, or ba le, but their banh mi never really hit the right spot. My favorites from here is the banh pa ti so, banh bao, and nuoc mia. The owner is super nice and friendly. I love this place cause it's ran by a small family who just want to make a living. My organization would always use this place to cater for our fundraisers and everyone is always in awes with the amazing taste. The banh bao is super light and airy which is perfect. The banh pa ti so is super flakey and the meat filling has the perfect seasoning. Definitely recommend this to everyone who loves Vietnamese food. Also if you get a chance, try out their chicken rice, that they make daily. It's seasoned with a soy seasoning and its just the perfect seasoning. Not too salty or bland! Must try if you're ever in the area read more

This small shop, is not as modern as some of the other ones on Federal. They had an interesting item the dried pork, it was very dry, and kind of like eating rope. It had good flavor though. I would rate my Bahn Mi a 3. They do have these pork belly puff pastry things, which the boyfriend loved. I can't eat pork belly unfortunately, but if you like that, you should try some. read more

A Vietnamese friend told me about this place, and kept bringing their sandwiches into work, making me salivate and pant. Finally, he brought me one. I have no idea which one. But it was freaking DEEEEE-LISH! The bread is perfect: Crusty yet yeasty goodness, with just enough give for a proper bite. The toppings: Well. I don't know. Definitely some porkish stuffs in there. There was a ham-type. Definitely a roasted or boiled then sliced pork with a hint of 5-Spice seasoning. There was a Pate-esque spread. It all melded together with the lightly pickled vegetables: Carrots, Radish, and Cucumbers. Oh, yeah, and who could forget the jalapenos? Yeah, this is a good sandwich. The Vietnamese Waffle they brought along, also my de-virginizing experience, was pretty spiffy, too. I'd like to taste it warm, but the flavor and color (green!) were spot-on. Can't wait to go back! read more

Wow! This place is amazing!!! The pork buns are to die for. The ban mi sandwiches are pretty good too! The combination one was my favorite of them all. They even have a buy 5 get one free! read more

Oh noes! What happened? Did I come on an off day? This place used to be my favorite for banh mi. Great crusty bread. Yummy fillings and tons of pickled veggies to stuff inside. I came here to get a take-away order after being away for 6 years. The bread wasn't as good, the veggies were missing (except in my veggie sandwich), and it just wasn't as flavorful. I"m not ready to break up with Baker's Palace yet, but I will be shopping around, just in case. read more

I love the bread here. It's so yummy and perfect for anything I stick in between it. But I docked a star because my favorite thing to order at any banh mi place is "banh mi pate." And unfortunately, the pate here is not a contender. My mom loves the sandwiches here because they offer something here that Ba Le doesn't. So when she does come here, I take advantage of the free sandwich. But the pate here is really salty. Numerous times I've tried it and it's still the same overly salty taste. I am a fan of salt, believe me, but this thing has a high cholesterol sign right above it. I also refrain from docking another star for it's location only because I fit the stereotype of horrible Asian Women drivers and it's location is very hard to get into when coming from the north. Getting out is also very messy as well. But I still love the bread =) the soft, yeasty goodness of it! read more

i can't believe i didn't discover this place soon enough after living here for few years! i came here yesterday for the first time and had to come back again today. my fav so far is the Pate and Pork Skin. Also their purple sticky rice is amazing. The boss lady is so friendly and welcoming. Such a good customer service. Another great thing is that she is very fast. I come in and out quickly. Buy 5 get 1 free . it's pretty cheap here compared to other banh mi places. Cheap but good though . no complaint here :) read more

Not easy to find, but definitely hard to avoid! Great Banh Mi for the right price...$2.75. Bring 10 of your friends to get some and you get a free one with the purchase of 10. They have all varieties. I personally have had the different pork ones (dig the #9) and the meatball (thats a spicy meatball!!) and was not let down at all. I also ordered a watermelon drink (sans boba), which happens to be one of 40 different flavors they make. O-M-G...I saw the girl bring out a watermelon to cut up and was definitely intrigued. What I got was fresh watermelon slushy goodness. I wish they had a bigger size cause I could have drank that ALL DAY LONG! I look forward to getting different flavors. There are other bahn mi places in town, and some of them might be good. And some of them might be cheap. This place, however, has it all the way you want it. Go there. read more

Baker's Palace has fantastic Bahn Mi. The bread always has a nice outer crust, but soft and fresh in the center. They are extremely generous with their meat and veggies as well. The prices are pretty affordable, $3.00- $3.50 for a sandwich. The bobas and desserts will run a bit more, but the prices are comparable to other places. The staff is always friendly and offer recommendations. You can't go wrong with these recommendations, they only time I have not liked what I ordered was when I tried something not recommended by the staff. read more

This is my favorite place to get Bánh mì and Bánh nap (pork bun) in Denver. We came for a visit from San Jose, California, where there are so many of Vietnamese sandwiches and to-go places. This Baker Place offers better food items comparing the stores in California. The people running the store were also polite and friendly. Great place to get your Vietnamese snacks. read more

Wow, this may have been my worst banh mi in the history of my life. I didn't think that veering away and trying a new place for banh mi would be this disappointing, but unfortunately it was. Maybe I'll just stick with what I know in case this happens again. The sandwich wasn't as filled as another I like to frequently get. Very light on the fillings. I got a chicken sandwich- the chicken was dry, dry dry. Not flavorful and actually rather bland. The bread was not as fresh as it should be- no crispy exterior, instead the whole thing was more chewy. Overall, hands down not acceptable for me. I've had far better from a place up the road. read more

The sandwiches, banh mi, here are delicious. The bread is very flavorful, has the right consistency of crunch and chewy, without being flat or too dry. The selection of meats is pretty broad and each sandwich comes with a good sized amount including the traditional toppings. Bakers Palace ("BP") also sells very tasty glutinous rice dishes and steamed buns. They offer one steamed bun in particular that is filled with a hard boiled quail egg and a delicious spicy sweet pork meatball. If you are not feeling the sandwich you should consider the glutinous rice topped with chicken, Chinese sausage, and green onion. Add a little soy sauce and Siracha and you will have a delicious, filling, and inexpensive meal. For something sweet, try the glutinous rice balls with coconut cream sauce. Over two bites of chewy, not overly sweet, refreshing taste sensation. Two sizable sandwiches, two steam buns, two Vietnamese summer rolls, one rice chicken and sausage, and one order of the coconut rice. All under $20.00. If only BP was all over Denver. Replace every Quiznos with a BP and the world would be a remarkably better place. read more

Simply delicious bahn mi! Fresh crunchy bread with soft inside, wonderful pork and crunchy veggies ad herbs. Choices are about $3 each and a great place to order to go read more

Bakers Palace's Bahn Mi sandiches were listed as one of the 100 must eats in Denver recently, so I gave it a shot: Rating: 5.5 (out of 10) The Skinny: For the uninitiated, Bahn Mi is a Vietnamese sandwich made with a small baguette. There are usually a host of varieties available, and at Bakers Palace, I think there were about 10 options to choose from. When I make a "best value" list, these Vietnamese sandwiches will be on it. At $2.75 per sandwich, you feel as though you're buying it in Saigon with American dollars. The bread was great - crusty yet soft - I could hear the crackle when I squeezed the sandwich in my hands. The filling (on the #9) was decent: Pork, cucumber, carrots, cilantro, onions, etc. It all tasted fresh and crisp. Nothing earth shattering I'd say, but slightly above average. One word of caution: Choose wisely. At that price, I tried 2 sandwiches: the #9, and the #1. The #9 was pretty decent. The #1...inedible. I've got a picture of what it looks like up on the blog in my profile jko read more

Best Vietnamese sandwiches in Denver! They even have Boba, desserts, and premade Togo meals. Super sweet gals running the place too!

Very good sugar cane drink and banh mi. Can't go wrong here. Appears fairly clean so that is always a plus.

Best vegetarian bahn mi in all of the land! The #14 is a fried egg bahn mi I suggest getting it "with pickle" so it comes with the delicious carrot/daikon pickles. So Bahm. read more

Banh Mi. The perfect recession stress calming food. A perfectly crunchy exterior, soft and tasty interior french roll filled with the meats of your choice and a shredded pickled daikon and carrot relish with cilantro and jalapenos (when you order the #1 combination, you get three meats, one of which is head cheese, the other a ground pork, the third a salami like meat, and also a pate'. Be adventurous! Eat like you're not afraid! The flavors may reward you!) for $2.75 including tax! I must confess my loyalties to the place that busted my banh mi cherry over 15 years ago which is the Vinh Xuong bakery up the street but after consulting with a couple of my favorite Vietnamese foodie/waiter friends at our favorite pho joints, I knew I had to try Palace (as it was called by them). They didn't steer me wrong, this place has great banh mi and the people there are very nice. My only minor sniggle would be the strong MSG aftertaste coming I assume from the pickled veggies but I think my MSG radar has become almost too sensitive. 5.5 out of 10... and the delicious #1 combo inedible? whatever... read more

Baker's Palace sells tortas! Tortas!!! Well, that is what the window painting claims. However, their tortas are made Vietnamese style, which makes them banh mi - a Vietnamese spin on the baguette sandwiches popularized during the French occupation of Indochina. This place may be a little grungy, but the clientele keep it popping, with customers whizzing in and out this humble abode on S. Federal. They have a complete menu with a wide variety of fillings. They also have a nice selection of beverages and Vietnamese desserts. read more

I love Viet style sub sandwiches because they offer a taste of Vietnam. The bakery from which it carries different cultural desserts bring an awful lot of desire for more when it comes to these sandwich shops. You can mostly find it here in S Federal where most of Asian stores and bakeries are found. They carry the best out of best when it comes to gluten free handmade bread, kimchi, fish, oysters, cut chopped onions and even some sweet sauces. The best part is that these bakery/sandwich shops are wayyyy more affordable than traditional, American subway sandwiches shops. read more

I have long been a fan of vietnamese food. From Pho to Spring Rolls to Iced coffee, they really know how to do it. That being said, I had never been exposed to bahn mi until a recent episode of "The Best Thing I Ever Ate" on The Food Network. On this show the theme was sandwiches, and 2/5 network chefs chose bahn mi as their all-time favorite sando. WTF??? I have to try one of these things. I immediately began searching google and yelp to find the best banh mi in Denver. Finally, I was pointed to Baker's Palace by someone in my office (Quyhn). It's pretty hard to find this hole in the wall- even with a map. But I eventually found it. Once inside, the "menu" was no easier to navigate than the streets on the way there. I eventually asked the young woman at the counter which one I should order. "Number 9" she said. Evidently this is the go-to grinder for white boys. The sandwich was grilled pork on a baguette with cilantro, jalepenos, radishes, cucumbers and spicy mayo. It was very tasty and refreshing. The bread really makes it. My only gripe was that I wanted more when I was done. Next time I'll have to get a side and some iced coffee to supplement. read more

My favorite banh mi shop on Federal. The bread is always fresh. They are extra generous with the meat and veggies.
