Came to this bakery on my trip to Toronto! The bakery is really fresh tasting and the buns are fluffy and soft!

Good selection of sweet and savoury Chinese pastries. Great value for money. I wish I'd know a little more about the ingredients.

Places like this are what I miss having moved from San Francisco to Colorado. Where else are you going to get delicious BBQ pork buns and pretty much an entire lunch for $2-3? Enough said. read more

Based on how strong the American dollar is right now, you can get a bun for $0.30 US if you get the 5 for $2 deals. YES! For that reason, this 3.5 bakery gets bumped up to a 4. The best is probably the pineapple bun - bo lo bao. The egg tart was a little too sweet and not egg-y enough. The taro bun didn't have enough taro in it -- too much bread. But the pineapple bun was just right. Get them fresh! We also got a mocha coffee roll to share with our family. That was pretty good! Located in Chinatown, the place is very simple like most bakeries in a Chinatown. It's most likely family-run. The focus is all on selling the bread! Mmmm! read more

I would DEFINITELY come back here for some of their delicious and inexpensive treats. I walked in with my family and we got a wide variety of pastries that provided a nice lunch for 4 people -- and only $7.00! There are a few downsides to this place. 1) They do not accept credit cards... and 2) The baked goods are cold, which is fine for most of the items, but the meat buns and chicken tarts were NOT good cold. They do have a microwave available, but we had already left by the time we realized it. My favorites were the egg tarts (5 for $2!) and the coconut tart -- both very delicious! read more

This place makes the best steamed buns in Chinatown. Their filling is plentiful and very well seasoned, and their bun has a great consistency (it`s not dry like other places make them and it doesn`t have that baking powder after taste). They are not the best steamed buns I`ve had but they are definitely passable. Another thing going for this baker are their prices. For the steamed buns it`s 3 for $2 and many of their baked buns it`s 3 for $1. Can`t beat that for value-for-money. read more

If you are looking for bargain basement prices for baked Chinese goods, this is definitely the place to go. They aren't baked in a basement of course, that's just typical satire, but don't expect superior quality. Known for the special of the day, three buns for $1 this is your typical bakery along Spadina. Wouldn't say it's the best but it's not bad if you are low on money and you are hungry. One good thing about this place is they bring out stuff throughout the day even later on in the afternoon which is a rare find from what I've seen. Then again, I don't consider myself a Chinese Bakery expert so I don't know if it's rival competition "Ding Dong" Bakery down the street brings out stuff in the afternoon. Anyways, moving right along...The only thing I like about this place is their version of the Neapolitan cake. Basically it's a layered cake with cream, walnuts and a flaky layer (like a passion flak). It's really good, and at $5 it's a good deal. They get bonus points for having two little tables for people to sit and eat. Most of the bargain bakeries don't offer seating to maximize space and accommodate the huge hordes of crowds looking for inexpensive Chinese baked goods. If No frills had a bakery, this would be it! read more

Their pork and veggie buns are so good. The filling is juicy and packed with flavour, the buns wrap is at the perfect thickness and absorbs a good about of the fillings juice. Many bakeries cheap out on the filling, but not this. The buns are large, and the filling size is not compromised. I'm 130 pounds, and I'll be full after two buns (which is less than $2). Sometimes the goods can be a bit stale, but not too bad for its price. If you're looking for an affordable place to eat, I highly recommend Mashion Bakery. read more

4 stars for the pork and veg steamed buns 3 stars for the other buns Why? 1. Steamed buns are filled with quite a bit of meat, well seasoned and there is some sauce within the bun making it one of the best! 2. Great value! Steamed buns are 3 for $2 and they are larger than steamed buns you get at dim sum. 3. Baked buns are 3 for a $1, although made smaller than other places, that's a pretty good deal! 4. Only 3 stars for the baked in terms of taste and quality. Although the bbq pork bun was decent in flavour, there was probably more sauce than meat, and other buns like custard filled were just ok...similar to other bakeries in the area. Next thing to try...flaky crust egg tarts! Also, service is very friendly :) read more

Mashion Bakery has relatively average Chinese bakery items for cheap. I would say there's nothing here that stands out good or bad in the world of Chinese bakeries, hence the 3 stars. The buns are rather boring and dough-y. The sesame balls are good when fresh, as are the egg rolls. Service is sans smile, as you would expect in this type of establishment. Nonetheless, when you want a really cheap and filling snack, it's not a bad place to stop. Better than Ding Dong in quality. read more

THOSE EGG WHITE TARTS THO I mean, the value for what you're paying is bananas. Perfectly steamed pork buns, buttery pound cake, delicate coconut buns, lighter-than-air Japanese cheesecake that's as good as Uncle Tetsu's for a third of the price - when I was a broke student in Chinatown, this place was a godsend for tasty, dirt cheap food. read more

Lots and lots of buns. Delicious, both sweet and savory. $4 for around 7 buns, mostly red bean but also taro. I'm a big fan of Chinese buns every since I took a a trip to Beijing in High School. Mashion helps fulfil my occasional craving. read more

Went here throughout the summer as a cheap eat spot! Their buns are a great size for getting a variety at a cheap price. They may offer smaller buns but it's worth it. I found that their best buns were the red bean bun and the curry beef bun, the Char Siu bun wasn't all that great. The turnover rate for the buns is pretty high so the odds of getting a nice warm and fresh bun was great! Definitely returning whenever a cheap lunch is needed =D read more

You either LIKE this stuff, or you don't. I fall in the latter, so I'm unable to really comment on the quality, ect. This was the first time (and the last) I tired a red bean bun, and yeah .... it wasn't for me. read more

If you wish for some fresh Chinese baked food, very cheap but very fresh, clean, good as well as with very nice, smiling and friendly service, I think this is indeed and without any doubt the bakery to go to on Spadina. I still prefer the small sponge cakes from Kim Moon on Dundas, but I go to the latter only for the sponge cakes (other items are much less of a success), whereas I would go to Mansion for any other types of bakery goods. (if only they could also offer mousses or cakes on top of what they have...this would be a 5!) read more

Hands down the best buns I've eaten in Toronto. Great price and pretty good quality :) I always order the coconut loaf! read more

My favourite Chinese bakery downtown. Why? Great value! You still get 5 buns for $2, and it has extra side items like spring rolls and steamed pork buns. For most items, you also have the choice between regular or pineapple (that yellow sweet egg paste thing on top) buns. Every time I come downtown, I leave with a bag full of baked goods from Mashion. Top picks: Red Bean Bun. Not super sweet! Red Bean Mochi. Raisin or Pineapple Twists. But really, there's so much, you can't go wrong! read more

Hello everyone, We will need to buy some moon cake, and wonder where is the best moon cake, and best price. Please help! Thank you! read more

We sampled the egg tarts based on reviews. Perfect balance or custardy goodness and yummy crust!

Cheapest chinese bakery in the area....and probably the best quality. I come here every week to stock up on buns. Three buns for a dollar, a whole loaf of coconut buns for $1.50.......you can't really go wrong here. read more

Yum! Went to this bakery in Chinatown for a chat with a friend and had a pork bun and a couple egg tarts (based on reviews). Both were delicious. Grab a tray, some tongs, and choose from a huge variety of baked goods. It is also nice that they have a few tables up front for people to sit at. So affordable, too - it was nice not to break bank on a few snacks. Service was friendly, customers were flowing after work, and everything was fresh. Would recommend next time you are in Chinatown and feeling a bit peckish! read more

This is an incredible bakery- they have loads of things to choose from, for extremely good prices. A friend and I went in and ate until we were both full, as well as had leftover, and the totally price came out to just under seven dollars. There isn't much space to sit, so it is probably best to get it to go-- but it is most certainly worth the trip. read more

Ah! This bakery was on the way to and back from the school I use to attend. I'd always get sucked into the bakery by the baked goods aroma. The steamed pork & veggie buns are delicious (they're one of the more pricier buns and not part of the 3 for $1) but worth the extra dollar or two! I've tried a lot of the others as well, they're pretty good too. The people that work there however are pretty rude, and always ask if you want to purchase something at the front when you don't want to (if I wanted to I would have picked it up already!). read more

After picking what I wanted, I calculated that the bill would be $6.50. The girl at the counter asked if I wanted them in a box or in a bag. I said a bag would be fine. She immediately told me it would be $7.50. I thought: Okaaay??? As I was about to gave her the $7.50, she said: sorry, it was only $7.00. So, I paid $7.00 and took the bag of buns home. At home, I took them out and counted that 2 buns were missing. So, she first scammed me to pay more and then she secretly did not put 2 buns into my bag. WTF????? And, tell you what; the taste of the buns are just mediocre. There are plenty of other Chinese bakeries in the GTA with better quality and taste. I just definitely don't understand all of the good reviews for this place. I will never spend my money there anymore even if she didn't scammed me!!!!! read more

Cash only unless above $10 (debit only). We used to go here all the time for their steamed pork buns, its adequately stuffed with pork! Lots of selection for sweet cake rolls, and bubble tea. read more

I travelled from markham to this place for a pineapple bun... $2/5 buns... sounds crazy but god damn it's worth. Small tip, always go during mornings because constantly fresh out of the oven buns are amazing!!! Been loving Chinese bakeries ever since I remember and out of all the ones I've been to, this one truly makes me feel like I was in China again. The buns are soft and reasonably sized. I'm stocking up before heading back to markham! read more

We were visiting the city last month and this bakery ranked top on my want to go bakery list, but we didn't realize they are closed on weekends so we settled for another bakery near by....which was no way near Mashion. Store - Although there was no AC with the door propped open, the store itself does not feel stuffy at all. Clean and organized, no greasy-creased up description tags that's common in most Asian bakery. They have a very small eating area that fits maybe 5 people max. Bread - Good common selection, I don't see any speciality that stood out but they all taste good. Texture is slightly dry if you are used to Taiwanese style bakery, not as dense as Korean bakery, but still taste good that we consumed all 5 pieces within 2 hours after a heavy breakfast. Must try - chocolate croissant, paper cup cake (it may look dry on the outside but inside is some fluffy goodness), and their cold soybean milk! The soybean milk is lightly sweetened just right, not offensively sweet at all. Wish they sell it by the gallon haha. Price - inline with nearby bakeries, budget friendly. Overall - I will definitely revisit the store when possible. read more

We didn't actually try any of the baked goods, but we did have the bubble tea and it was very good! Especially the passionfruit flavor. The prices were very good as well. I would've loved to try the pastries. read more

So good! My canto gf took me here.. So good it tastes like Hong Kong! And it's the best she's had in toronto

3 buns for $1. 2 egg tarts for $1. There's really not much you need to know. Okay - it's down the street from Ding Dong and even cheaper. CHEAPER THAN DING DONG! I would say the bun quality is a draw. But Mashion feels less picked over by the end of the day and seems cleaner and more organized. The lady at Ding Dong scowls for no obvious reason - I thought she was have a bad day or two... but nope, Ding Dong lady is ALWAYS scowling. But what does Mashion mean? Is it a typo of 'Mansion'? A portmanteau of 'massive' and 'fashion'? I'll weighing the complexities of this question over my next BBQ pork bun. read more

WOW.. this place is has a large selection of buns. 5 buns for $2!!! To be fair they are smaller than normal. But it is still way worth it. Egg tarts are 3 for $1 for the flaky type, coconut tart. 2 for $1 for the larger butter egg tart. Some of the premium buns where 2 for $1 such a pineapple BBQ pork bun and deep fried curry beef bun. read more

I'm from Hong Kong and these bakeries are a way of life so I had high expectations. The buns here are definitely decent for the prices they charge. If you go at the right time, you can buy huge bags of buns that will last you a week for only a few bucks which is a sweet deal. I personally am a fan of sausage buns and they're pretty good! Not quite the same as home but I'm not complaining. Their pineapple buns vary from time to time. Sometime's they're great and sometimes they're kind of soggy. The egg tarts are definitely not the best thing there. I suggest sticking with the buns. But for the prices they charge, this place is great. read more

Best Chinese bakery on Spadina hands down. I talked to an employee and she said they use more expensive ingredients than the other bakeries. Amazing prices and good $2 bun bags on clearance. Make sure to get the coconut buns, Bbq pork buns, milk tarts and cream buns. For newbies : take a tray and pair of tongs and load your tray and give it to the cashier. read more

Cheap bakery! I couldn't believe my eyes. A lot of the items were under $1.50. Yummy egg tart. I would totally return!!

Awesome deals, three egg tarts for a buck freshly baked. The shelf goes empty in the evening so go early.

Terrible service and a generic spread suggest anything other than the fact that this place has the best Chinese baked goods in Toronto. A personal favorite thanks to the pork buns and moshi. read more

Baked goods are fine but what is up with the milk tea? Somebody please do a pantyhose tea demonstration here and set this place straight. I threw it out after I drank half - unheard of!!! read more

One of the cheapest Chinese bakeries I've ever been to. I love their coconut breads, tarts, taro and CUSTARD buns !!!

I'm a big fan of the steamed pork/vegetable buns. 3 for $2 is a steal! The sesame balls are also very good. I'm in Toronto for three weeks and I will miss this bakery when I have to go back home. The bakery is very clean inside. If you go towards closing they drop the prices a bit. read more

The pineapple bun with BBQ pork is amazing. We came here in the morning when everything was fresh. The pineapple buns were so soft. There isn't a whole lot of variety here, but I do like the things they have. Everything is nice and new, clean and bright. They open early and close late, but they run out of most of the buns pretty early as in late afternoon. read more
