Came here for the first time to try an Egg Tart. It was good. Tart is missing some sweetness and the crust is hard. It is missing the flakiness of the crust. Egg tart looks light in color but if you are looking for less sweet, this is your place. The other pastries and breads look delicious! Only had room for a small luxury. Service was great! Attentive and nice. I would rate the egg tart 6 out of 10. read more

Fancy Wheatfield Bakery - Bakeries Near Me - San Francisco, California

Is the name of this bakery chain a remnant of the propaganda era in China? Probably not but it kinda sounds like a slogan meant to inspire harvests of eternal prosperity for the rural proletariat. Anyway, I know I can usually find something sweet here to finish off some savory meal nearby like the beef noodle soup at Yuanbao Jiaozi or the chicken pho at Pho Huynh Hiep. I went to town this time and got three things. The $2 Coffee Cake was good but too heavy even for me. It came rolled with an especially sweet icing slathered inside (photo: https://yelp.to/y_WGDJuEL1). I got more satisfaction from the $1.80 Coconut Tart which was not overly eggy or sweet with plenty of coconut shavings baked into the filling (photo: https://yelp.to/k1-dPnfyLC). My favorite was the simplest, the $1.50 Milk Cake, of which two comes in a packet (photo: https://yelp.to/ARsK9ZPpNk). Bring me the tongs.

The customer service here is horrible. The lady at the register will discriminate against your currency. We have her some cash and she said the money is too old and you they can't accept it . That is totally a lie. Banks will take your money without any issues. Don't tell me you can't accept it . She literally threw us back the items . I say take your business elsewhere! If I can give them negative 100 stars I would. Never ever returning if she's there . read more

Tiny bakery with a wide selection of house made toasts, as well as cakes and wrapped Chinese pastries ranging from sweet to savory. Pick up a tray and tong, put what you want on the tray, then pay at the counter. It's a grab-and-go place with no seating. I like their soft rolled cakes and red bean filled pastry. read more

This is my family's go to bakery in SF for Chinese baked goods. The service is no frills and surprisingly they take credit cards. Our go to baked items are the ham and egg sandwich, cocktail bun, mini muffins and the hot dog bun. Prices are very reasonable for today's prices. We also get our celebration cakes here as well and the fruit cakes are a major standout! We usually get the 8 inch mixed fruit cake which is very good. This latest time we preordered a 10 inch one which was ready in a huge box at pick up. We thought they maybe gave us the wrong cake or there was lots of empty space in the box. Boy were we wrong! The cake was huge and sooo beautifully decorated full of fresh cut mangoes, blue berries, strawberries, cantaloupe, kiwis and honeydew. We were amazed by how much fruit there was! We will definitely continue to come here for our cakes and baked goods! read more

Definitely not the best customer service, but damn do they make a good cake. If you're a fan of the super fluffy, fruit filled, not too sweet Asian style cakes, this is the spot. We ordered their famous Mango cake for my mom's bday and it was true perfection. The mangos were plenty and so beautifully placed. It wasn't too sweet and the sponge was fluffy as a cloud. The best part, imo is definitely how creamy their whipped filling is. They don't skimp on the mangos and the cake pleased the birthday girl. Would highly recommend ordering ahead of time. An 8 inch cake was about $40 and more than enough for 6 people. read more

Small bakery but filled with a variety of Chinese pastries! Fancy wheat field has multiple locations in San Francisco. I usually go to the one on San Bruno Ave which is the first store but I was closer to this location in the Sunset district this day. As this is ran by Chinese aunties that are a bit older in age with limited English speaking skills, you have to be patient. They are trying their best to help but do not expect them to fully answer any questions if you can't speak Chinese. There's a small language barrier but they are trying their best! I have never had an issue buying from them and I have been going for years! Grab what you want onto the tray and bring it up to pay. I believe it is cash only so be prepared! I absolutely love the egg tarts here, they are delicious! Must try if you are in the area. Workers are super sweet and they got me some new egg tarts from the back trays! Try this place out as I think they are much better than the other bakeries on the street! read more

The ratings for this bakery is all over the place and I think this is because it depends on your expectations. First of all, Wheatfield is very cramped. It's so small that you can't even see half of the products because the queue line blocks half of the store. They need a size like Sheng Kee up the street because they seem to be producing almost the same amount of products. The customer service can vary depending on the level you're used to getting from an American establishment but if you're used to dealing with typical Asian bakeries, you should know what you're getting into. This is a self service bakery where everything is made fresh and individually packaged. I do like coming to browse their new cake selections and today we found an interesting tiramisu filled in a pot for $4.95 Tasted like your typical tiramisu so this was really just for the novelty. Now whenever I stop by here, I always ALWAYS get a Portuguese tart. It's $2 for a tiny little 3 bite tart but trust me -- it is and will be -- the best tart you've ever had! Never have I ever had a tart with a crunchy buttery crust... omg it's like they fried the shell in butter! The filling is the softest jiggly egg flavor with just enough sweetness to balance the salty butter. I try to make this last but sadly it is so small and if I got a dozen, I would surely eat it all and gain 12lbs... so now you know. Check out Wheatfield and decide for yourself read more

Good bakery to check out if you're on Irving! Lots of selections of bread and cakes, my family usually picks up birthday cakes here!

Tldr: great cakes AND great baked goods. Wow their cake is so much better than 85C bakery! I can taste the egg in the sponge cake and sooo much fresh fruit on the top AND inside. With 85C bakery cakes, I feel I'm just ingesting tons of sugar. Their truck was parked close by and I can see they are unloading tons of fresh fruit for their future cakes! We didn't order in advance and grabbed a cake from the display. $23 comes with candles, knife, utensils, and plates. I wanted to try there baked goods. Wow! Delicious! I think this is the best black sesame bun I've ever had because of the punch of sesame flavor in the paste and the crunchy addition of walnuts. Taro in the bun was really fresh. The cheese bread was savory and not greasy. Would definitely come back. The quality was so fresh. $10 minimum for credit cards! read more

My parents surprised me for my birthday today with a cake from Fancy Wheatfield Bakery. None of us had ever been to this bakery before, but my parents apparently decided to give it a try as they work in the neighborhood. First impression was that the box was very sturdy and very fancy. Inside, there is a side compartment that contains additional paper plates, forks, serving knife, and even birthday candles! We got the mango fruit cake, and it comes very well made with many layers of thinly cut mangos consisting of the "shell". It was definitely a very pretty and delicious to boot! According to my mom, the prices here for baked goods are actually cheaper than Sheng Kee. And it turns out, they actually have 3 locations in the city. Will definitely have to swing by sometime when I find myself back in SF. read more

Fancy Wheatfield Bakery - Mango Fruit Cake - Bakeries Near Me - San Francisco, California

This place is a gem. They don't have super fancy cakes or pastries but they have the most essential ones with very reasonable prices. I used to live just crossed the street and I just came here almost every week because it's super convenient, I didn't realize how great it was back then. Now that I already moved to another area, I still come here every month to grab as many of my favorites as I can, because it's really worth it. You will never go wrong with the coconut bun, pork floss bun, sponge cake, and wait, don't forget to get their big pineapple bun, only $.90, you know it's a STEAL! NOTE: Remember to bring your cash, because they don't take cards. But you don't really need a lot, you can eat pastries for a week with $10! Definitely my go-to neighborhood bakery. P/s: In order to follow the COVID precaution rules, they put every single item in a bag, that I appreciated it a lot. read more

My favorite fancy wheat field - from affordable crepe cakes and Asian sponge-fruit cakes to the perfect Swiss roll and fresh moon cakes - they have it all. The kind of place that teaches you how wonderful "Asian sweetness level" can be. It's a small store and the line to purchase can get difficult, but I've only had great customer service from these ladies. One of my favorite things is that all of the cakes come boxed with a little bag of serving plates, candles, and a plastic serving knife to cut the cake. It's so convenient! read more

Their items are okay, nothing too impressive. I just can't stand the attitude of people who work here especially witnessing the different service Asian customers and non-Asian customers would get from these workers...I just can't.. read more

This bakery has a lot of choices. My favorite are the taro bun, bbq bun & red beans bun. I haven't tried the cakes yet, I see some of the cakes are decorated very nice. Next time, I will order a birthday cake. Prices seems reasonable & decent. The cashier was very helpful. read more

Business does not adhere to California gift card law. I visited this bakery and purchased two items for a total of $5 and presented a $10 gift certificate as payment. Cashier bluntly refused to pay out the difference and told me that I had to make a minimum purchase of $10 to use the gift certificate. California law, Civil Code section 1749.5(b)(2), provides that any gift card with a cash value of less than $10 is redeemable in cash for its value. In other words, the business is legally obligated to refund the remaining $5 difference in cash ($10 gift certificate - $5 purchase = $5 remainder). However, business refused. I ask on this public forum for this wrong to be righted; that employees be properly trained. In the coming days, I expect to follow up with the San Francisco DA's Consumer Protection Division and the Department of Consumer Affairs. read more

Their mango cakes are the best! Fairly priced at $30 (I believe it's 6-8") and gets the best Asian compliment - "it's not too sweet!" The cakes come in a sturdy box and with a cake cutter, candles, mini forks and mini plates. Highly recommend if you are needing to pick up a cake for an event or birthday! read more

Please provide good customer service, very impolite! Not the first time, every time! Im sorry for the owner who hire her! Sad!

The place is meh. The bread sizes are shrinking. Like a shredded pork roll bun is like half it's size from before. Cashier lady is rude and unprofessional. After I paid, I had 6 PCs of bread on the tray waiting for her to put on a bag or box. She pushed it back to me and said. That's how it is, just take it. It's like that ...when you don't get a bag. I was pretty upset because she never offered me a bag at all or anything for that matter. If there are rules, they can put up a sign to let customers know?! If it costs, she could've asked me to pay for one when I was paying like normal other places? I don't understand what happened. I felt humiliated because the people behind me just watched me grab the 6 loose bags of buns while they figured to request a bag for their 2 buns. I just didn't bother with the lady, so I didn't say anything, and walked away with my 6 buns gripped from between each my finger. It's fine. Sparing the planet from extra plastic trash. Next time I'll come with my own bag. read more

I love their mango cakes so much that I always buy it for any birthday in my family! Though the ladies at the bakery are sometimes very hostile, it's truly a full experience I ordered a 12 inch cake back in December and the smallest size on June 11th. The last half hour before closing they only take cash. Cakes come with candles, paper plates and forks (the ones that that are used for fruit) inside the cake box. Let them know if it's for a birthday, the small cake they used a small plastic sign, but for the bigger cakes a white chocolate sign is used. read more

Small bakery and not as much selection as 85 degrees or Sheng kee. We really like the paper wrapped sponge cake. Tried the pork floss, green onion roll but not enough filling or pork floss, seems like they trick you into thinking it's filled with pork floss but it's not. Just a bit of cream in a semi dry bread and slapped on a bit of pork floss on the side to make it appear filled. They take credit card over $10. read more

Pretty standard Chinese bakery although it is super cramped inside. Their bread is pretty solid and is very soft. I also like their swiss rolls and the cart in the middle of the store is a nice design although it's also why the store is cramped. Some of their sweet breads are a little too sweet for my liking. read more

This was my first egg tart and it was so good! The yummy scent coming from the bakery lured us in and we ended up buying lots of different bread to try! Out of everything the egg tart was the best and my friend really liked the pork bun she got. It seemed like locals also enjoy this place and it got crowded pretty quickly. There was one elder lady who was in front of me in line and pulled out her cash to pay but the cashier sort of aggressively ripped it out of her hand. Maybe the line was getting long so she wanted to get through the transaction fast, but I felt a little bad for the older lady. Also I wish the bags had tape to close them or seal them. Maybe I rushed out and didn't see tape to close it (as it's a traditional self-serve Asian bakery) but I ended up having to leave it in my bag and hope the crumbs don't fall out. read more

Fancy Wheatfield Bakery - Egg tart 1.80 - Bakeries Near Me - San Francisco, California

My preferred Asian bakery when I'm looking for pastries and cake. They have a very diverse selection of goodies to choose from and also beautifully decorated cakes that are perfect for any celebration. My family isn't too big on sweets and so the fruits cakes strike the perfect balance for our Asian household. I recommend ordering the mango cake. Not to sweet but lots of mangos! If you're a frequent buyer, I think they used tonoffer a reward card where you get 10% off every purchase. The staff here predominantly speaks Cantonese but can understand English. Order ahead if you're looking for a large cake. They also have another location in the city, one near Alemany boulevard, selling the same stuff. Parking in the area can be very difficult especially on weekends. Beware about double parking or doing any illegal maneuvers on Irving. They have cops constantly patrolling and will ticket! read more

I was buying pastry from Fancy wheatfield bakery since it opened first location in San Francisco few years ago, I am sorry to say I would never come back again after last couple shopping experience in San Bruno location and Irving location. They had horrible customer service and it is getting worse now. I saw cashier ladies yelled and rushed elderly customers multiple time. When elderly customers got delayed 1-2 seconds, cashier just passed them without asking. 2 weeks ago, I tried to spend a gift certificate in 2668 San Bruno Ave location , the cashier lady refused to accept it even I pointed out 2668 San Bruno Ave ( dim sum ) was listing on gift certificate. She said she never took gift certificate in her store and this was only good for pastry. Whatever she said was not described on gift certificate at all. Few day later , my mom tried to use it to pay partial of a birthday cake. There was 3 ladies in frontline, only 2-3 customers was picking pastries by their own. When my mom asked one cashier lady if she could see photo of birthday cake . The lady stared my mom and pointed cake refrigerator with finger and said "there, check it" . Only 3 fruit cakes were sitting inside , so my mom asked another lady who removed food tray and standing next to cake refrigerator, " what type of cake they are and any other type beside of them". This lady said" I don't know , asked her" she directed my mom to 3rd lady. The third lady took a glance to us and pretend she did not see us even we were standing in front of her in register counter. Again, typical Fancy Wheatfield customer service, the only conversation she gave us was " what you want , I don't know how cake look , no picture, I have no control , you want it ? Don't block line if you are not ready !" We are ready , but looks like nobody in this bakery wants our business. I am sure this is last time I will shop in this bakery. Btw, when we paid it by gift certificate and cash, I can tell she was not happy to accept it and threw our receipts on counter. Business owners, if you or your staffs hate to accept gift certificates, you guys should not sell it at all. Don't give attitude to customer. read more

5 stars for their cakes! I love Asian fruit cake and Fancy Wheat makes the freshest sponge fruit cakes! Order a day in advance and they will make your cake on the same day. Its stuffed with fresh fruit (not the canned fruit cocktail like some comparable bakeries) and loaded with fresh slices mangoes, strawberries and kiwi. The sponge cake is airy, soft, and fresh. They also don't load it up with cream, it isn't super sweet either so you don't have to feel guilty having a 2nd slice because you're just eating pretty much fruit! The cake order comes with candles, serving plates, cake server and forks for 8 people! How awesome is that! read more

Best Macau/Portuguese/Po Tat egg tarts I've ever had. Worth the wait when they're out of stock and you need to stand patiently near the register for new fresh tarts to go from oven to box. Croissant was ridiculously flaky and buttery. Nearly as good as ones I've had in Paris. Seasame cookies are light and airy. Great with coffee, tea, or wine. I've been to this bakery several times a year for the past decade. Finally getting around to writing this post....because I want to show my support so they stay prosperous til I have great great grand kids at gre very least. Love everything here! read more

Stale bread and tasteless. Poor store set up. Rude service. Go to Sheng Kee- much better.

I got the 8" fruit cake, everyone loves it! They even gave candles for the cake. The only complaint is for some reason they put the happy birthday sign on the side of the box, so when I took it out, the sign was little mess up. read more
