    Garlic Soft Bread
    Airi G.

    This place is one of my all-time favorite local bakeries and it's my first time buying bread from this location. I love the taro bread but I wanted to switch it up today so I tried the sesame bread and the garlic bread. I feel like the sesame flavor wasn't that strong and it was a little disappointing that the filling was not evenly distributed. The left side was all bread (which was so fluffy and delicious) and the right side was only sesame. The garlic bread was a lot better. I usually don't go for savory bread so the fact that I like this one says something. It wasn't heavy and overly greasy like most Asian bakeries but instead had a very garlicky center.

    Matcha and Matcha Red Bean Bread! Taste delicious!

    So happy that Duke Bakery is opened in Walnut on Grand and Amar which is across of Mt. Sac (Mt. San Antonio college). I just knew it until today! They didn't put their store name outside (only Bakery) so I didn't know until I went inside and saw their packaging bags. It used be a Korean owned bakery called Walnut Bakery. I always love Duke Bakery coz they have high quality bread even though the prices are slightly higher than others. I especially like their matcha red bean bread, the size is huge and it's filled with lots of red bean inside and taste delicious. And the other one I like is Chinese Wolfberry bread (Goji), tasty and healthy! I don't need to go to the one in Rowland Heights anymore. Btw, I can still use my Duke Bakery VIP card to get extra 10% discount. I hope they will have cakes option on the display though.

    Only a couple loaves per flavor.

    I've passed this location several times in the past, but it was always closed and out of business. I recently saw a neon "Open" sign so I decided to stop by. Imagine my surprise to discover that it's a Duke's Bakery location! Nothing indicated that it was Duke's except for a little logo sign on the bottom corner of their window. The sign above their shop is a generic "Bakery" sign in yellow. The paper sign on the door says they are closed on Sundays. I went in around 10:00 am and was hoping for a bunch of fresh bread smells wafting at me, but there was none. It actually looked quite sad upon entry. There were mostly empty shelves surrounding the shop, there were a few breads in the center, with only about 2 - 3 loafs per flavor. Not sure what they would do if they get more customers like me who buy a bunch of breads at once...do they close once they run out of inventory? The prices are higher than other Asian bakeries, but the size of the breads are really generous and I really love how creative they get with their flavors. I did pick up a few items, and it was hit or miss with the freshness. While most were soft and yummy, a couple were stale. I don't think they bake in house, since I went early in the morning and none of their items were warm or had condensation, and I don't know how long they keep their breads out, or maybe they drive it over from another Duke's location? I tried to ask the lady working there when the shop opened but she didn't speak English so we just kept our communication to smiles. Overall, this is an awesome bakery for yummy breads - every one I've tried is really good! Just cross your fingers that you get fresh ones.

    Usually go to the one in rowland heights which is a bigger store. I'm happy that they have a chain in walnut , taste wise the bread is good but unfortunately it wasn't that fresh and kind of dry.. . You can tell it wasn't baked the day of . But overall place is clean & they have good variety of bread options.

However, parking itself is never that hard to find. There's plenty of seating inside and some outdoor seating as well. I do like the floral decor and twinkling lights that they have at this location. The other Paris Baguettes I go to are usually, or were usually, part of a mall, so it's nice that this has the space that it does. I've never gone when it's super busy, but there's always other patrons there either chatting outside and hanging out or working on something inside. You can get savory and/or sweet pastries, sandwiches, full cakes or just slices, drinks, and everything else that you can get at other Paris Baguettes. Stock is decent. Sometimes the pastries are a bit hit and miss. Cronuts are a bit pricy and oily, but I never have issues with their sausage/hot dog buns and cream breads.

The person in front of me ordered like 15 things which is fine, but the worker was so incredibly slow at entering each item, and also moved like a sloth while taking out the cakes and macarons. After standing second in line for 5 minutes and the guy was still ordering, I asked a different worker if it's possible to open the second register just so I can buy my loaf of bread and be on my way. She responded with a poor attitude and said "I'm making like 8 or 9 drinks right now." Please train your staff to be more efficient and respectful when speaking to others. Extremely disappointing customer service experience.

The croissant dog was solid, but could use more flavor. The German custard was delicious. And the star of the show definitely had to be the CHEESE STICK! I will definitely note that if you use a mobility device that requires atleast 30 inches of width, it might be hard to get through. The aisle/s were extremely tight, making it hard (as a wheelchair user), to fit through. I would definitely recommend that they try to make these wider to be accessible to every person. The service was nice and fast. Straightforward and easy. It is divided into a grab and go bakery (similar to Paris baguette), and a sit-down restaurant. Very different than your "regular" bakery. There is a lot of seating and you do have to wait to be seated. I would describe the ambiance to be slightly fast paced, but very traditional. We will definitely be back. Thank you so much!

The staff member who answered the phone asked us to bring the whole cake back for an exchange. I explained that we had already cut the cake and eaten a few pieces, and she specifically said that was fine, even if we only had photos, or no photos at all, and that she would still honor a replacement cake. Based on that conversation, we decided to bring only the fruit back to show them. When we arrived at the store, another staff member told us that since we did not bring the entire cake and that only the fruit was bad, she could exchange the fruit only, not the cake. She also stated that the staff member who answered the phone was new and had not explained things clearly. Although we were eventually given a replacement cake, the experience was very unpleasant. There was no acknowledgment of fault, no apology, and our question about when the cake was made was not answered. The replacement was given reluctantly. We have been loyal customers of this bakery for many years and have always had wonderful experiences celebrating special occasions with their cakes. It is truly disappointing to see the decline in both cake quality and customer service.
