    L-R: Peanut Bun, $2.05. Sesame Bun, $2.05. Matcha Almond Croissant, $3 (Total= $7.10)
    Vic C.

    This JJ Bakery is located in the same plaza as iTaiwan and Cluck2Go. My husband and I decided to stop by since I was in the area, two Saturdays ago. We arrived around 2:15 pm and there was already a short line by the register. After briefly looking around, we ended up choosing: Peanut Bun, $2.05- I really liked this bun, it was filled with plenty of chopped peanuts. But I did not like finding baking paper that was forgotten to be pulled off on a few bites and having to spit out that paper. Sesame Bun, $2.05- Luckily the black sesame bun did not have any baking paper when I ate this bun a few days after purchasing. But I did like this bun, as there was plenty of black sesame paste that was the perfect sweetness (of not being too sweet). Matcha Almond Croissant, $3- My husband had this the next day and enjoyed it. --------------------------- (Total= $7.10) Service was friendly. The 2 employees who helped us spoke both English and Mandarin. And what was nice was that they bagged our 3 items in a plastic bag and handed it to us after paying for it (I paid credit card and did not see a credit card minimum sign). The only reason why I bring this is up is because Sunmerry and 85C Bakery both charge $10 for a plastic bag so it was nice to see that this JJ bakery just gave us a bag for free (or that it is already built in the cost of their baked goods). Inside this bakery are a few tables and chairs, which is nice if you want to sit and chat with a friend/ family member and enjoy your purchase here. We ended up taking our items back home. If I was in this area again, I would stop by this location again.

    At first glance you may think this is just another 85° type bakery, but its not. They do have similar things but the pastries are huge! I got a custard bun that was enormous! And some baked cheese bread which ive never seen before. My friend loaded up on the garlic bread and something with hot dogs i think too. The guys behind the counter were very nice. They have some beautiful cake assortments and drinks too. Even pork floss by the jar, which was so cool! It's a good sized space but i wouldnt call it a hang out spot. I would recommend going earlier - we were there mid afternoon.

    Popped in to get a few snacks since I was in the area. They have a good selection of bakery items. A lot to choose from. I got in at a good time as the ones I picked were very fresh. The store itself is nicely laid out and neat. Everything was well packaged and placed nicely. I mainly got some pastries but they also have some cakes, which looked delicious. Service was straightforward. Wasn't too busy when I went but you can tell they move things along.

    German Pudding, Cheesecake Stick, hot dog croissant.
    Dashiell M.

    We stopped by today after getting our delicious drinks from dumbstruck, and we were really happy we did! We tried the croissant dog, the German custard, and the cheesecake stick. 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!

    Strawberry Mochi
    Allen L.

    JJ Bakery has always been on the top of my list for Taiwanese bakeries in California. They started in Hacienda Heights and grown to several locations all over Southern California. Their flagship store just a few minutes away has Taiwanese breakfast that's fantastic. Today, I was just grabbing pastries so I went to the Rowland Heights location. I always get my usual Curry Beef Pie and Chicken Pie which they have at all their locations and after seeing a few tiktoks recommending the Mango and Strawberry Mochi, I had to grab those as well. Can confirm that those are delicious! Fluffy whipped cream, cake and mango or strawberry wrapped in a thin layer of chewy mochi. It's a must try! I was also excited to see they had Red Bean Salted Egg Yolk Pastries (Dan Huang Su) which are traditionally sold during lunar new year.

    Tried out this location for the first time and it was an overall good experience. Bought some pastries and bao - nothing fancy - and they were good. Bakeries can be hit or miss, but what we got was fine. There seemed to be a pretty good selection of items and there were a good number of people at this location. I'll need to come back and try more to get a better feel for how this place is consistently, but so far so good.

    Both pre-made meals top sticky rice ($10) bottom pork chop $10.75 cheap!
    Katrina N.

    I'm glad I got to visit a JJ bakery on my trip to Rowland heights. The JJ bakery in Irvine is not comprehensive as this one which provides desserts and a dining section for meals. The bakery section included the same items as any other JJ bakery so I'll go straight to the meals they serve. On the table near the front entrance, there were a variety of pre-made meals that were priced very well. We ended up picking up a sticky rice bento box with some pork strips and a flavored egg $10. We also grabbed this pork chop box that included 2 side dishes for only $10.75! Huge steal! Especially when we just picked up a pork chop rice from Monja Taiker from next door and it was $5 more and 5lbs lighter. The flavor of the porkchop wasn't the tastiest but I would do this again just for the great pricing. The sticky rice was really tasty!

    Cream Puff Box (6 pieces)
    Leilani M.

    Wow! First time trying out JJ bakery and loved everything we tried. Cake was light and spongy. Filling layers were layered with precise ratios to cake. Visually these are beautiful but also tastes spectacular! It's the worst thing when they look so good but doesn't taste great. You don't have to worry about that here. It's gonna be delightfully delicious. Neatly packaged and ready to travel! No smeared edges upon arrival to destination. Thank you V&C

    Mung bean mooncakes (only on Mid-Autumn Festival)
    Joyce G.

    Lots of variety of pastries to try. For this year's mid-autumn festival, I've gotten the mung bean moon cake. They were delicious and not too sweet. Service is great and fast. Place is alright.

    Kelvin Y.

    Good selection of baked goods including interesting breads. Fair prices. Each item is already individually wrapped- much preferred in my view. Service was fas, friendly and efficient.

    Enjoyed the black sesame mochi the most here. The mochi is amazingly smooth. , The Portuguese egg tarts as these are also very good here.

    7/24/2026 4 1/2…read moreStars First time here. Came here early afternoon. It was not busy with no lines, but the cafe's seats were nearly filled. FLAT WHITE It wasn't bad. Slightly sour, but fruity coffee. Overall, I enjoyed it. Good mouthfeel too. Good temperature, it wasn't too hot nor luke warm. MANGO MATCHA At first taste, it tasted more like guava. But it was indeed mango. But a fake mango flavor. The mango flavor was there, but could not taste the matcha. It wasn't bad, but I had better mango matchas elsewhere. CUSTOMER SERVICE It was okay. Not bad, but not great. Staff could smile more than just stare at you. Even say "Hello" or "Welcome" when you walk in the coffee shop. LOCATION Located in a small strip mall at Golden Springs Plaza. Parking is medium-sized for the amount of businesses here. I had no issues finding parking in front of the coffee shop, although more and more parking spots were being taken. AMBIANCE + SEATS The ambiance was relaxing. No loud music. Lots of people coming in and working on their laptops. Five small tables for two in the center. Along the wall there were bar seats for 19-20 people. There's a long communal table in the center for seats for 4-5 people. At the front and to the side, there were 3 tables for two. Outdoor tables for two right outside the cafe. Bathroom is outside of the cafe and you have to enter the other part of the building with a bathroom code to unlock. Will I visit again? Maybe if I'm in the area. But I'm in no rush to come back.

    Dancong Oolong Milk Tea ($6.49)-- 70% as recommended was perfect for me! The tea strength is super…read morestrong (just how I like it) so the sugar pairs well with it. It's nice and not too milky, good tea to milk ratio, tea is fragrant. Some places for example if the tea is weak then it just tastes like sweet milk. Or it's like BARELYYY a bit of tea where you smell it but don't taste it. But here the oolong is pretty strong and the roast is nice so I thought it was good! They're open pretty late and there's some seating inside, some directly outside, and then even more out in a patio. Also at night people were just chatting and chillin around their cars so that's an option too since less cars driving around. There was a bunch of people when I went so I was expecting a pretty long wait. But maybe it was just 10 min or so? Soooo quick I was so surprised. Molly Tea for example is packed because of people waiting to order/waiting for their drink, but here people were just chillin and hanging out for the sake of hanging out. The drinks are quick!

    Recommended by a friend, Chahalo has everything for everybody!…read more We arrived on a Sunday noon, and the place was bustling. Ordering is through one of two kiosks, or the cashier. Their merchandise (magnets, hair accessories. ..) is super cute. We ordered their milk tea flight, which included a jasmine milk tea, osmanthus milk tea, and a dark/black milk tea. We also got the lychee smoothie, oolong milk tea and the lemon kumquat tea. All our drinks were ordered at 50% sweetness. All drinks were a hit. The jasmine milk tea tastes very similar to a milk tea competitor that shares the same name scheme (Cha_ _ _). ChaHalo has good boba and more variety, though, which is a plus! Their lychee smoothie was perfectly sweet at 50%. The oolong milk tea had the perfect milk to tea ratio, and the lemon kumquat tea was refreshing. Out of the drinks in the flight, the jasmine milk tea was best, then osmanthus if you like the floral tea flavor, and lastely the dark milk tea, which wasn't anything special. There were a few small tables inside, and seating in their patio. Drinks came out quickly and service was efficient and friendly. We will be back!

    Originating from Taiwan, this bubble tea shop is a must-try. I am a huge fan of their Osmanthus…read moreOolong Tea with Mango. It tastes crisp and refreshing and does not taste syrupy at all. Another amazing drink is the Cassia Black Tea with Mousse. The tea itself tastes robust and slightly malty, while the mousse adds a silky and creamy texture that enhances the drink. My husband especially likes the drinks from the Lemon Condensed Milk series. Each cup is freshly brewed to order and has a strong tea base, which is exactly how I like it. This particular location only has one ordering kiosk and only a couple of small tables. It is definitely more of a grab-and-go type of place. The premium tea taste and tea quality here are consistent with other locations I've been to. I like that we can see into the kitchen and watch the drinks being made. If there is a wait, it is all worth it!

    I stopped by Chicha San Chen after hearing about its award-winning reputation, but unfortunately,…read morethe experience fell well short of the hype. The shop itself was clean and filled with a pleasant tea aroma that created a welcoming first impression. Service was average, with nothing particularly memorable about the visit. Considering the relatively small size of the drinks, paying over $8 per drink felt difficult to justify. **Green Tea with Boba: 2.5/5** For a tea shop renowned for its freshly brewed-to-order teas, this drink was surprisingly lackluster. It tasted noticeably watered down and had very little of the fresh, fragrant jasmine tea flavor I was expecting. The chewy boba was the highlight, offering a pleasant texture with just the right amount of sweetness, but it couldn't salvage an otherwise disappointing drink. **High Mountain Pouchong Tea: 1/5** This drink was an even bigger letdown. Like the green tea, it tasted diluted and lacked the floral depth and complexity that a high mountain pouchong tea should offer. An unusually artificial, creamy, sweet aftertaste also lingered after each sip, further detracting from the overall flavor. Overall, the drinks lacked the bold, distinctive tea flavor I'd expect from an award-winning tea house. Considering the premium prices and relatively small drink sizes, the quality ultimately didn't justify the cost. There are simply too many better bubble tea shops at this price point, and I don't see myself returning.
