Phu's Bakery has been on my to-visit list for a while now. Finally, I have arrived. Got here about one hour or so before closing time on a late Saturday afternoon. I was super surprised they no longer allow customers inside their bakery. All orders are done at the front door entrance that has been plastered with clear thick plastic. I had to view the pastries and baked goods through the window from the outside which wasn't an issue for me. Items are labeled with name and price. Good variety of selections. Prices are very affordable. Unfortunately, the one item I came here to get was all gone for the day. No more egg tarts. I was bummed, but no worries. I still got other stuff. I'll catch the egg tarts next time. I left with 6 items for a total of $12+ which wasn't bad at all. Everything was quite good except for the durian biscuit which didn't have the deep durian flavor I was looking for and sponge cake that was slightly dry. Coconut bun could use a bit more coconut. Taro bun had strong taro flavor and lots of it. Vegetable and pork bun was savory and filling. What stood out for me was the mantou... plain, but soft and bouncy with the perfect hint of sweetness... I loved it! 1. Coconut bun 2. Durian biscuit 3. Plain steamed bun (mantou) 4. Sponge cake 5. Steamed taro bun 6. Steamed vegetable and pork bun I'll be back for my egg tarts and more mantou!
This place continues to offer great Portuguese egg tarts. $2 for one now. I went to pick some up yesterday. It was so fresh. The egg was just so smooth. Not too sweet and not oily. They offered other items as well. Their bao/buns were also very fresh.. I came when they just finished with the baos. I got some pork & veggies ones & bbq pork. It was $2 for one as well. Pretty good. Note. Didn't get to browse the shop. Ordered at the door. Customer service was great. Telephone service was great Parking avail
Parking: Super easy with plaza parking lot. Interior: They were taking orders at the door with menu posted outside. Wait Time: line was maybe 4-5ppl long so took a few minutes. Order was packed immediately so overall it's a quick pick up. Items Order: 9/10 Egg tarts $1.7 (2024)- Custard was bomb, not too sweet. It came fresh, hot, and shells were buttery. $20 min for card or they accept cash/zelle
Phu's Bakery is no-frills. They display their pastries at the window, and you may order at the door in front of a foldable table. We ordered two dozen egg tarts (that were kept warm) and two pork sung rolls, and paid cash. Both the egg tarts and pork sung rolls were delicious. The egg tarts were a hit at our gathering, and the pork sung rolls were a fantastic snack. Highly recommend! The parking lot is a bit busy with nearby food and beverage businesses, but doable!
My goodness! I am in love with Phu's Bakery Portuguese egg tarts! It is really one of the best egg tarts I have ever tried. The crust is flaky and buttery. The custard is creamy, silky, light, and has the perfect texture When I got them, they were warm and very fresh. The first bite was like an explosion of flavor in my mouth. They were irresistible! I also tried hot dog bun without cheese. It was savory and fresh. Their durian biscuit was sweet and creamy. They don't allow entry to the store. You have to order from outside. The service was fast. The bakery is located at Vikon Center. There were plenty of parking spots shared with other businesses. Definitely,I will be back.
Definitely a hidden gem I stumbled across a couple years ago. It's a small, walk-up style bakery, no dine-in, just a window where you place your order after checking out the display of baked goods. I've tried some of their breads, which were decent, but nothing too special. What really stands out here are the egg tarts. They're legit flaky, custardy , and honestly better than what I've had at a lot of dim sum spots. Whenever I'm heading to a party or visiting friends, I'll often grab a box to bring as a gift. Just a heads up they're pretty much cash only, so come prepared.
$20 min credit card charge & $2 Portuguese egg tart. If you don't have cash, you better buy 10 egg tarts lol! The price is quite unbeatable and the egg tart itself is so flaky and warm. You must eat them while they're freshly out of the oven / bakery because they don't sit well after a while. I bought half a dozen so I could save one for the morning and it felt apart but I still ate it, it wasn't as good as when I had it fresh/warm. The bakery shop is old style and it's not for sitting down but they do have a parking lot. Service was fast.
Phu's Bakery is a bakery in Rosemead known for their Portuguese Egg Tarts. They have other breads and baked goods as well; however, the egg tarts are what they're known for. When you come in, they don't let you inside and you order at the door. All of their baked goods are lined up in front of their window. Their popular tarts go for $2 each. I bought four and they were served hot. The pastries were flaky and the custard was pretty egg-forward. It's OK (3 stars) for me because I prefer the dessert with a little more sweetness. Being able to get hot and fresh Portuguese egg tarts is nice and, if you're looking for egg tarts, then you should check it out; however, their sweetness level isn't what I prefer.
I've been searching for a local bakery specializing in egg tarts and other Chinese pastries, and my wife, who is a very picky eater when it comes to sweets, was impressed with the pineapple biscuit, wife cake, and egg tarts. Phu's Bakery is located in the Vikon Center, which is in the same plaza as Tantawan Thai Kitchen. It is to-go only. They accept cash, credit, and debit cards with a $20 minimum, as well as Zelle. Their Portuguese-style egg tarts are perfectly sweet and creamy with a flaky crust, reminding me of the ones we had in Macau. The Wife Cake is also nice and flaky with a sweet center, and I enjoyed the pineapple biscuit as well, but my favorite was the egg tarts and wife cake. Prices aren't listed, but for 2 egg tarts, pineapple biscuit, wedding cake, and red bean cake, our total was $11.25. We will definitely be back for more of their delicious cakes and pastries.
One of my go to bakeries to buy egg tart! In the morning it's so warm and fresh. Since covid, they have not let customers into the store. Most breads are available on display. Some are in the back but written on the menu at the door. There is a curtain that you order and pick up from. Her cash register is still inside though haha so she runs back and forth. Bring cash as there is a $20 spend minimum for credit card use. We always get their egg tarts and it's become a famous shop for egg tarts in the SGV. So warm flaky custardy and slightly sweet. Custard is super eggy and there's nice color on the outside. Breads and buns are on par with the other Chinese bakeries and they do a great job with speciality traditional pastries and bakery products. The owner is running a business not a run club so she may seem a bit rude out front but it's just her RBF. Quick and efficient. There are also no public restroom!
we have been coming here for years for our custard egg tarts, even though it's a little bit pricey it's definitely worth it. The Portuguese egg tarts here are absolutely delicious. normally whenever we have a family gathering, I always buy these lovely desserts after lunch to bring with me. today, I went early in the morning when they first opened and the egg tarts were still fresh and warm. They used to sell out earlier in the day, but I guess business has been great over the years that now, they continually keep baking egg tarts until they close. The lady is very nice at the door. She asks what you want and reconfirms before she charges you. Service is pretty quick. Doesn't take longer than 5 to 10 minutes when you're picking up your baked goods. as long as you purchase over $20-$25 you can use a credit card otherwise make sure you bring cash.
Whenever I'm in the area, stopping by for their egg tarts is a must! They still operate "COVID-style," with orders taken outside the shop--which I don't mind at all since the service is quick and efficient. Just a heads-up: once items sell out for the day, they don't restock--so go early if you want the full selection! The egg tarts are incredibly well made and still taste amazing the next day after a quick reheat in the air fryer. Their pineapple buns are also a favorite, but they were sold out during my last visit. If you're ever nearby, definitely check out this gem of a bakery!

Was on a hunt for epic egg tarts for a dim sum brunch my friends were hosting. Hands down the best Portuguese egg tarts I've ever had!!!Lightly sweet, very buttery flaky crust. They're $2 each. The small bakery has other Cantonese desserts & bread. Noticed the moon cakes were flying off the shelves. The pineapple cakes also looked incredible. The service was quick, so the line moved fairly quickly. Cute old lady boxing up the tarts while the younger generation helping English speakers like myself. This is a window service type situation. Wish I could walk in to their shop and browse what they have but for hygiene purposes, I see why they block the entrance with a table as a barricade. Easily I give these tarts and the service 12/10. They gained a frequent customer read more

On our egg tart tour, we visited Pau's Bakery to try their Portuguese egg tarts at $2 each. Service was fast and line not long as you order at the window and take it to go. Taste wise, the egg tart had authentic flavor with flaky crust and creamy filling creamy, but didn't knock it out of the park (more 3.5 stars). If you're in the area, the eggs are good to take home as affordable treats. There were other pastry and bread available here, but they didn't stand out to the freshly made egg tarts. read more

I came here because this bakery is known for their Portuguese egg tarts, but honestly I was disappointed. The crust wasn't flaky at all -- instead of being light and layered, it tasted oily and dense, more like underbaked dough. On the other hand, their breads were much better. I tried the coconut cream bun, which was soft and fluffy with a nice aroma, though a little too sweet for me. I also picked up the old-fashioned sponge cake, which was very airy and eggy, but again, heavier on the sweetness. It's surprising that the egg tarts, which they are famous for, didn't live up to the reputation. The breads were enjoyable, but I wish the pastries matched the same level. read more

The egg tarts are good but not amazing or to die for. I came here on a Saturday morning while I was waiting for my DaVien order in the plaza over. I have had Phu's bakery bookmarked for over a year and had been meaning to try it. But I'm never on this side of Rosemead. I can finally cross it off my list. They have other baked goods as well.The entrance is blocked by a table where you can order at they will pick your items out for you. Would I drive here purposely for egg tarts? No, but if I was in the area and had time to pop by I might grab one or 2. read more
Phu's bakery is one of those hidden, hole in the wall spots that locals love. Since COVID its become a pickup window with the breads up near the windows so you can see what's available. They're particularly known for their hong kong style portuguese egg tarts (po tat). These are super creamy, milky, and rich with a nice flakey tart crust. They aren't too sweet and I always end up getting a dozen. They make them fresh throughout the day so you almost always get a nicely warm one when you go. They also have a bunch of other Canto baked staples and the few I've tried have been good but again, the po tat is what stands out. In a seemingly run down strip mall, there's quite a few hidden treasures. Phu's bakery is one of them here and def worth a trip out! read more

Egg tarts are yummy and creamy! It's more of a in between of Portuguese and Chinese egg tart crust. Got a few breads but my favorite was the custard bread. Didn't like the coconut bun as much. Service is good and quick. Went when they were doing construction so couldn't go in, but the lady got the breads for us. read more

The Portuguese egg tarts here are phenomenal. Flavorful, creamy custard filling with that seemingly home-baked flaky crust. They are substantially larger than some of the 1-bite budget egg tarts I've seen and superior in taste and texture. You can see what's available in the window display, and there's a menu posted in the window with prices. You place your order at the front, and the lady taking the orders was very nice. Note that the lady informed me that the order total must exceed $20 in order to use a credit card. read more

It's To go only. Different types of bao. Portuguese egg tart $1.60 tax each is really good. Crust is flaky buttery and inside melt in mouth soft and full of eggs. Highly recommend this. Not the bao with rice noodles. The bao outer is quite good -soft bouncy. read more
Got here right when they opened and these Portuguese egg tarts were warm and flaky You can't go in a browse around they have someone in the front that just takes your order and you wait. Now lets get into these egg tarts, gives me a flavor of a soft flan, its creamy and has the egg taste but not too sweet. It's good and once I had it I been thinking of grabbing more the next day. Great thing to take to a gathering or a gift. read more
One of my favorite bakeries to get Portuguese egg tarts! I put a lot of my family and friends onto the egg tarts here and they all love it as much as I do. The egg tarts are made with a creamy filling while the layers of crust is crispy, I highly recommend eating it when it's warm, it tastes so good! Phu's also sells various bakery items, including sponge cakes, they're so soft and fluffy! I love supporting this local bakery. Keep in mind, they don't allow customers to walk into the store, they have a table outside where you can order and pay and they'll bring out your goodies to you. Can't wait to get more egg tarts next time! read more
