I'm gonna give them 3 stars because honestly speaking as always in my reviews, I did not like the beef patty meat. The patty itself had a slight crispy, flaky exterior but I've had better. Then the meat on the inside had a vinegar taste that overwhelmed the flavor of the patty along with it being very soft and mushy. It didn't have much spice to it either. Now the vegetable pastry I also purchased now that was good. It was very large in size and from the picture I attached you can see it was very filling. I did enjoy it. The customer service was good, better than some caribbean spots I have visited. I definitely prefer to go to another place in that same neighborhood that hands down was just better to me. So not giving and thumbs up for this spot but I'm not giving a thumbs down either. It's just an ok for me. -Happy Yelping read more

Champion has always been a staple for my family's Jamaican specialties needs. We would frequent this bakery for duck and hard dough breads, as well as bun and cheese, and always for their patties. Any time we had a special event, we would get a large order of cocktail patties and they always came in clutch. In recent years their cocktail patties have been skimpy in the fillings but the regular patties are still on point. If I'm ever in the area, I will stop by and get a spicy beef patty with coco bread, the perfect street food and ready to eat on the go. The filling is great. It's spicy and packed with seasonings and yummy beef. The outer crust is flaky and the perfect thickness. Their coco bread is always warm and a perfect vessel to envelop the patty as a great little snack to gave while on the road. We stopped by because I was down the block at a neighboring store. Parking out front is always hectic. You're likely better getting something down the block or around the corner. Just about everyone double parks so if you do grab a legit spot, be prepared to wait for someone to move their car from blocking yours. When you enter, keep track of who is last on line. Everyone skips and the staff doesn't really take notice as to who might have come in first so you just need to be assertive and make sure your not skipped because the customers don't care and neither does the staff. Your best bet is to hover by the central cash register and try and grab someone's attention who is free. A beef patty and coco bread will run you about five bucks. The inflation is crazy nowadays. It's still worth it and it will fill you up until your next meal. read more

Champion Bakery - Spicy beef & warm coco bread on the go - Bakeries Near Me - Bronx, New York

I picked up a $13 bun about 2 pounds for Easter. It was a disaster!!! I could taste the baking soda in it. It was the driest bun I've ever had. It was awful!!! They sprinkle the fruit peels on top instead of inside the bun. I was very disappointed this year. I have been buying my Easter bun here for over 20 years but everything must come to an end. I don't know what changed with them but I definitely won't be back. read more

food isn't that great and the workers have a nasty attitude. atleast let your food taste good smh. waste of money and time

These Pattie's are big but not good at all. I threw mine out. Pattie's are pasty and tasteless with fake meat. The meat is strange like it has a lot of fillers. It's very mushy with a flour water consistency. The crust is ok but no flavor but flour. . Just an overall waste of time and money. The other stuff in there looked good but I don't know. I prefer Kingston Bakery down the block. I would NOT recommend this place for Pattie's. read more

The parties used to be good but now the filling is not beef. It looks like beef but the taste and texture is all flower. The crust taste like flour and the filling taste like flour. I was so disappointed. Don't waste your money. Go down the block to Kingston Bakery. I don't know about other things in Champion. I can only rate the Pattie's and I was totally disappointed. read more

As Easter approaches, I highly recommend trying the moist spiced bun from Champion Bakery. This delightful treat is filled with bite-sized fruit and are baked to perfection, making them a must-try for the holiday season. read more

unfriendly staff, beef patties lack filling & taste, gloomy atmosphere, cash only so someone is skimming at the top and not reporting the true income earning ., coco bread not buttery, sweet potato pudding is not sweet n kind of pasty. My hopes are crushed. read more

Great beef patties. Getting coco bread with the beef patties is a MUST. If you haven't tried coco bread you're truly missing out.

Authentic beef patty spot with a lot of bread choices. The beef patty was good but I liked the chicken patty better. The coco bread was good too. They had a good variety of Jamaican drinks as well. The beef Pattie's are $3.50 each. Good amount of meat in them and flaky crust. read more

5 star for breads 1 star for customer service. Some staff are up pricing the goods and pocketing the difference. I paid $6 for bread yesterday and $7 for the same bread the week prior. Staff said they are "holding goods for other customers" but will sell it to you for something extra. would hate to see this staple business lose out because if crooked staff. I suggest posting price list and providing proper receipts. read more

Really good beef patties! Went there right before closing the food was still fresh and delicious.

Champion Bakery is the best bakery I've ever been to in NYC bar none . All their products are warm and freshly baked . Try their duck bread (always warm fr ovenso popular you have to preorder for holidays)and banana bread . The best thing for me is their Jamaican style patties whether it's beef chicken or veggie . If they start selling cheesy beef am moving to the x . read more

I went here to pick up 3 dozen beef patties for a church function I called the day before to confirm my order. My order was ready on time I just didn't get to place on time. The beef patties or good but back in the day they where flakier read more

delicious flaky beef patties, not to diminish another business but there's one a block near that is really famous and tastes not even close to as good as these patties. read more

Bread: I've tried their coco bread and their hardo bread and liked their hardo bread A LOT. One of the best that I've tasted - my only gripe is that for whatever reason, after each time I ate it, I felt crappy. I don't know if I'm reacting to one of the ingredients in it or what, but I'd feel kinda woozy afterwards. It still tasted amazing though, to the point that I was literally tearing chunks of it and eating it as is. Their coco bread was not anything to write home about, and I wouldn't get it again. Patties: I came here for the patties, tbh, and I wasn't blown away, despite how huge they are (!!). First time I came, they didn't have any regular patties so just got the loaf patties (which are patties that are baked in a bready crust). They got my order wrong so I didn't get to try the beef filling in these, but the 3 veggie-filled ones they gave me were literally tasteless. The chicken filling is seasoned with curry, and had that classic Jamaican curry flavor, which I really enjoyed. However, the loaf crust was just not my thing - I wanted some flakiness! So the next time I came, they had classic beef patties, so I ordered that and the chicken in the traditional yellow crust. It was definitely better, but gotta say, it left something to be desired. Chicken filling has a little kick to it, but the beef patty was pretty average, and the crust did not have much flake to it at all....just kinda insipid and average. Obviously, I have personal tastes when it comes to patties, and it's not like they were inedible, b/c they were fine...just not what I personally like when it comes to patties. read more

Not a stranger to this business. Born and raised in the Bronx. , had several Caribbean dishes. This is MY FAVORITE SPOT. Once you partake in their Jamaican patties. Hardo bread. Fresh made daily on its property. In fact everything they sell made " IN HOUSE". Very convenient to get to by car., public transportation. Just minute off the major expressway . This bakery is the Morher.......for all bakeries desires. read more

Yummy patties! Put you im mind of Tasty patties in Jamaica. I love the aroma. It hits you the minute you walk in......oh my goodness!!! Now the food, thry offer fresh baked breads that are a staple in Jamaican households including the upcoming Easter bun season. The patties are marked with an edible red mark to imdicate the type of filling. Ive only tried the beef and chicken. They are both good and slightly spicy. What i appreciate most about this bakery are the heat bags (that the patties are placed in), the older lady/baker, and the pink Ting.. read more

I was recommended this bakery to get some beef patties because i was visiting my moms in the Bx and was disappointed. This review is for their beef patties only. However, their bread looks fresh and delicious!! And people were coming in scooping up bread up in bunches. The patty had a weird taste to it based on the spice they used to flavor the meat. I was not in town long enough to try another spot but Champion did not work. I'm hoping my yaadis I'm Bx does not think this is the best patty to offer. read more

Been to this place alot on occasions and I can say the patties and coco bread is mediocre,its lacking that freshness and quality like Kingston,and theit other baked items are sub par.The women who work there ate not the most welcoming,one lady that was behind the register was coming across as a bit snotty giving off a dirty serious look like I just talked bad about her mother.I know this place been around as long as Kingston but for that continued freshness,quality in the beef patties and coco bread and that satisfaction of knowing exactly what I paid for Kingston is going to be my continued pattie fix,Champion who? read more

Hardo bread and beef patty a must! My Granny put me on this place so we took the trip from Brooklyn, Everyting good! Trust me!

I've been going there since I was a kid. Most recently the patties don't taste good and cashiers have nasty attitudes as if you're begging them for something. They give Jamaican customer service a bad reputation. They need to do better with the quality of their products and service. read more

It's 2019 and somehow Jamaican's behind the counter still have a bad rap for customer service. I refuse to continue to support a business that can't simply cater to their customers' needs and satisfaction. There's nothing worse than spending your hard earned money somewhere that makes its customer feel like crap. Whoever those two ladies were behind the counter today-especially the one counting who was at the register who made me feel like I was bothering them for doing their job....you guys did a great job at making me feel like crap...so right on to the competition down the Kingston where the service is better read more

My favorite beef patty shop...for chicken and veggie I prefer Kingston. The crust is so flaky!!! Yummy

I'm gonna keep this short and simple... You will never eat a beef patty, bun or hard dough bread from another place after you come here. This is the bakery of all Jamaican bakeries. Hands down the absolute best Jamaican patties, buns and hard dough bread I've ever had. I'm surprised there are only 3 reviews for this place as it's been around for a while. This is as authentic as it gets and as delicious as it gets. Get up to the Bronx and have an authentic experience! read more

Best beef patty in the area. Crust is flaky, and there's a good filling to crust ratio. I'm less so a fan of the chicken patty though. The look and the taste of the chicken patty strongly resembles cheap chicken bouillon, which I personally found to be off-putting. Definitely the go to place for patties though. read more

Agree with all that's been said about this Jamaican bakery! Great patties, hard dough bread and from the line, the spice bun must be off the hook. the line was out the door as people loaded up for the Easter and Boxing Day. Great local gem! You get a dozen of chicken&/beef patties for $22. read more

The best beef patties ever? Whaaaaat? Possibly, it is just my taste but the reviews seem higher than what I actually tasted. These patties are larger than most and the crust was flaky; HOWEVER, the filling was too wet and sweet. i don't like saccharine or sugary substances in my meat!! Yet another trek across the Bronx to be disappointed and misled by the palates of previous patrons. I give the patties 6/10. If you're ever in Stone Mountain, GA check out the Royal Caribbean Bakery for a good beef patty. Don't order the food because it is terrible but the patties are good.

Im confused at all these good reviews for this place. I just did not like it. Bought 3 patties and ended up tossing 2 out the window. The crust was too sweet and the meat inside which was suppose to be beef, tasted like veggies. I had to open it just to make sure she gave me the correct thing. Never again will i return. The place 2 blocks up taste wayyy better. Kingston Bakery is the name i think. read more

I can't believe that I'm the first person to write a post. This place has the BEST Jamaican patties in NYC. I think other Jamaicans are trying to keep this secret and close this off to yuppies since this place already has a steady business, but I had to share the love. read more

I was so used to getting my Jamaican patties from 7-11 or the frozen isle at my grocery store and of course my boyfriend got irritated that I kept eating what he calls "fake me out meat patties". So at our recent trip to NYC, we made a point to visit the bakery to get some patties. Needless to say is that we walked out with 2 1/2 dozen of patties. They were seasoned just right and the crust was so flaky. Definitely going back there again. read more

Amongst a plethora of competing bakeries Champion has Authentic flavor. Fresh Jamaican Patties, breads, cakes, spice buns. Fast & efficient.

I currently live in Fort Lauderdale, FL I moved from Mount Vernon, New York back in 2002 after I had my daughter and I must say I miss this patty store so much when someone is coming from or going to New York, I always make sure to get them to carry some for me!!! I heard the place was closed for some renovations and I hope they have reopened by now cause my son is on vacation there and I need to get my patty fix!!!!! read more

Best beef patty in NYC. Even better than Kingston Tropical Bakery which is right up the street.

Best Jamaican bakery in the Bronx. The foods are always fresh fast service friendly environment. I will recommend this place to anyone that is looking for baked goods. read more

I happen to be helping a friend in the Bronx and searched for a place to eat and I noticed the previous entry. I have not made a concerted effort to find the best pattie in New York, but this sure is the best I've had in a very long time. Very tasty, spicy but not jarringly hot filling and flaky, flavorful, non greasy crust. It's worth a trip read more

I was "BLESSED" to discover CHAMPION BAKERY in "1983" - while living right up the block from their location. I have not bought a beef patty from anywhere else since! NEED I SAY MORE............. :) read more

I'm not sure why this bakery doesn't have many more reviews. The patties at the Champion Bakery are TO DIE FOR. The patty crust is incredibly flaky and the patties taste like patties I used to eat when I lived in Jamaica as a child. You won't be disappointed with your patty purchase! read more

Best Bun I've had in along time ,MOIST & full of FLAVOUR...... Trying to get there again very soon.
