Meh. The pastries although flaky are lacking flavor. The meat was super bland but the flaky pastry was nice. The fish was really fishy, almost briny fishy. I love dropping in to different places throughout Miami. People are super lovely, food is mid. read more

I buy food there once a month, and every time I go there, there is a lady who works there, she is very mean and rude.

Listen this place is no joke! I am not sure if it is always packed or if that was just today since it was NYE and that bread is needed for the soup joumou but the line was out the door when I got there just before 9. People were ordering boxes of bread to take home! And apparently this place opens at 5am too!!! While I love everything about Haitian food, for whatever reason I had never had a Haitian patty or Haitian bread. Since I had to wait in line for quite some time, I decided to try both and get the full experience. When the young lady brought me my bread it was piping hot! I wanted to sit on the floor right and just indulge in it! I also got two beef patties. Everything was certainly worth the wait!!! There is construction going on on 62nd street so if you don't know what you're looking for you will certainly miss it; I did. It sits right on the corner of 62nd street and north Miami ave but because of the construction work that is blocking the entrance from 62nd street you have to access it the back way from north Miami ct. not north Miami ave. Customer service was excellent. The young lady helped me out as she saw that I didn't speak or understand creole. She answered all of my question and did not seem aggravated with me for holding up the line a bit with my questions, lol. She was very nice. I will certainly be giving this place a try again in the very near future! So delicious. read more

Great fresh bread. It is very dense and on the sweet side but delicious. Great pastries as well.

This place really doesn't look like much but if you want Haitian bread or pate, it won't disappoint. There isn't a huge selection but what they do, they do well. No chicken pate :( read more

The level of stupidity I just encountered is unbelievable. A Haitian buddy of mine exposed me to Haitian codfish patties when I was in college since then I've been in love with them. We used to go at least a few times a week to this Haitian bakery off of NW 62 ST, but one day this place abruptly closed. Since then I've not been able to find a Haitian Bakery that perfectly makes codfish patties. Recently a sexy maiden and I do mean sexy recommended Piman Bouk Bakery to me. So I popped in a couple of weeks ago and boy was I satisfied, these tasty morsels were almost perfect, they weren't over buttery nor did I see a need to hire a private investigator to find the codfish filling like some places I've visited. So why the 1 Star rating? 1. There' always this dude begging at the front door who looks like he has STD lesions on his mouth. 2. I came there today and ordered 6 fish patties, as I got in my car I took a bite into one of them, it didn't look right nor feel right in my mouth so I spit it out. I split it open and what I saw didn't remotely look like codfish. I took it back in and showed it to the woman and she assured me it was codfish she even went as far as to say it cannot be beef because they will not have beef for the rest of the week. That didn't make any sense to me, they only sell codfish and beef patties why wouldn't they have beef to make beef patties for a whole week??? I drove off and I start to break up more of them and I am sure this is not codfish but beef, so I U-turn and confront the woman again. So the baker comes out and I said to him what is this? He says beef, then the woman and the baker start yelling at each other in creole, then she gives me back my 6 dollars. Mind you I don't eat red meat nor pork, so I didn't appreciate having dead cow rolling around in my mouth, especially since I view cows as sacred spiritual beings. So I don't understand the stupidity of what just happened? 1. Jamaican bakeries color code their different patties so they can identify them. Why this Haitian bakery does not, I have no idea. 2. Why would you knowingly sell me beef patties and they try to pass them off as codfish? I mean anyone with half a brain can see and know the difference. 3. What bakery is going to tell you "we are not going to have beef for the rest of the week", as to solidify her claim that she gave me codfish. If you don't have codfish just say so, don't try to sell people crap that is not what they ordered, that is just beyond asinine and stupid. If you sold the wrong thing just give the customer back the money or the right order, how stupid can you be to make up a non-sensical story to mask your idiocracy? Well, it's back to the drawing board to find codfish patties. read more

Disgusting and dirty place food its cold and the guy is very rude at the fontdesk and grabbed my food with his barehand almost falling to the ground .NEVER GO THERE AGAIN read more

I have been coming here for over 15 years and I absolutely love their Haitian Patties! I actually enjoy everything here from the thick bread to the other Haitian deserts. The only problem is, sometimes you can get there and the patties are not baked yet or they have sold out! They move how they desire and the local seem to know how they operate and when to come. They are closed on Sundays for the record! read more

The man working there was very rude with a foul attitude. He didn't want to help anyone, ignored people and behaved as if coming in to the establishment to purchase anything was bothering him. What we did purchase was dry but it was a waste of money and I would not recommend going. read more

I would have given it a lower rating if it was solely based on customer service. The limping papi who is at the front is rude and quite frankly Haitians need to do better with customer service. As a Haitian this is why I tend to avoid going to Haitian establishments. I went in this morning with my sister and she asked for 4 beef patties. As he was handing over the patties we realized we wouldn't be going back home together so she asked if he could separate the patties. I understand it was already bagged but there's a way to say things and provide customer service. He proceeded to tell us we should have told him sooner and made the biggest deal showing us that this bag is for 2 patties, this one for 4, this one for 8. He did all that and still didn't give us an extra bag. Ridiculous! Especially since they are small PAPER bags. On the plus side, they have great patties; flakey, buttery crust, hot, and filled with meat. Prices are very cheap. Inside is outdated and they only take cash by the way read more

Well, I came here because of the following reasons: 1. Increased personal interest in Little Haiti's offerings 2. Big parking lot, fanced, somewhat modern signage (for Little Haiti, it is) 3. Plenty of cars parked on site 4. They seem to be in the middle of modernizing the interiors and applying fresh coat of paint to the walls, painting an elaborate mural of Haiti. And upon walking in, there was a small line. Walked out to get cash from an ATM machine across the street upon finding that it's cash only, and walked back in to find an even longer line, nearly to the door. And the long line was a blessing - I was able to see what was popular. It's not the huge slices of the various types of cakes (although admittingly, they look really good and I was really tempted to order some), not the typical Haitian sweets, breads, or anything that was in the display case (they did not offer too much, but they did offer more than the other Haitian bakeries I had visited prior to this place). Practically everyone ordered the "pates" (Haitian pastelitos) and they were getting both of the only two kinds that are offered here. Beef and lobster pastelitos that were stored in the small warmer in the back and selling like hot cakes. You read that right. Lobster pastelitos. I was confused - lobster is expensive, no? And in Little Haiti? Heck, I just ordered two of each! Result: Flaky, warm, fresh-tasting pastelitos with spicy minced beef and the others with minced lobster were both tasty and filling. I would definitely order them again - especially considering that these were only a dollar a pop ($1 each). I wouldn't hesitate to return. CASH ONLY read more

I stopped by and had a couple of meat Patti's & a giant slice of carrot cake. The beef patty was very flaky and came out hot I enjoyed the buttery texture. The giant carrot cake was full of flavor it was different from your traditional carrot cake but tasty none the less. I would definitely have to go back and try to catfish patties as I hear they're good. read more

I have been here several times, this is your classical Haitian bakery. No visually appealing on the inside, but the product sold will have you HOOKED. I try to make it a point to come get Haiti's signature bread: Pain Kreyol. Their recipe I have no clue as to what they use, is to salivate over. It pairs well with anything a bd everything. Peanut Butter, hot cocoa, old fashion medicinal tea. Whatever you like. It's dense and delicious , that's all I know. My family loves it. So if you have to buy anything it would be his bread. Piman Bouk, offers other items and they are just as great but there is a line for their bread every morning, especially Saturday! They just do just a fantastic job. read more

See all

This place is well known for there bread loaf's and patties which are baked on site. I opted for the Haitian patties filled with ground beef (equivalent to empanadas but smaller in size and spicer in taste). The patties were OK, I typically like them baked softer and the meat more spicer. I'm pretty shocked that this was not the case here as years ago this was the come to spot for Haitian baked goods. The patties I got were hard which causes it to be less flaky and contained less meat than I am accustomed too. I only speak English and did not find it to be a problem here as another review indicated. If I am in the area, I will try them again. My recommendation is to purchase one quantity of what your looking for and try it before buying a large quantity and being disappointed as I was. read more

If you never had Haitian bread it is sort of like Cuban bread but much more dense. You have to check out the bread here simply amazing. Make sure to get it in the morning when they bake it. Comes out hot, and just tastes so ridiculously amazing. read more

This place has THE best patties and Haitian bread! Every time I visit Miami I cannot leave without going to this place. Food is always fresh. Takes me back to Haiti in an instant. read more

Piman Bouk Bakery: The New Florida Bakery - Pattie heaven - Desserts Near Me - Miami, Florida

While waiting at the traffic light, I became curious about this place because the parking lot was crowded, and I could see lots of customer activity going on. That was a good sign. I had to find out why, and I did. Inside people were lined up getting loaves of fresh hot Haitian bread and patties filled with different meats that resembled empanadas. I did not speak Creole and the young woman serving me spoke limited English, but my eyes detected DELICIOUS sweets in the display cases. I purchased: 1. brown sugar candies similar to New Orleans pralines, but these candies were heaping, full of nut meats, rather than mostly sugar, peanuts and cashews and coconut. I was very impressed with the coconut "praline" because it was strongly flavored with ginger. YUM! 2. narrow pie-shaped "leche" candies flavored with almond. YUM! 3. thick wedge-shaped carrot bread and sweet potato bread. They were moist, dense and full of flavor. YUM! Everything I purchased was FRESH, FLAVORFUL, and INEXPENSIVE. I shall return. Next time I will buy the popular meat patties and dense Haitian bread that are highly recommended by other reviewers. read more

Excellent pate mouri - salted cod in puff pastry patty. Get them when they're fresh and hot, simply amazing. There are also beef ones that are excellent as well. Pick up a loaf of Haitian bead. A bit denser and heavier than what we're used to, but good nonetheless. This place needs to serve coffee. It would really be filling a void in this neighborhood, can't find coffee anywhere around there. Preferably Haitian-style coffee. This place is authentic, not a tourist trap. Great local place to explore Haitian (albeit limited) bakery items. Some are very exotic to non-Haitian palates - come with an adventurous spirit, an open mind, and a smiling face. You may be pleasantly surprised. Cash only. read more

Did this bakery used to be called Christophe's? If so, this is hands down the best bread on earth! I mean that from the bottom of my heart. I used to live in Miami and we pretty much had to get a fresh loaf of bread from here on a regular basis. If you're in Miami and have never been you don't know what you're depriving yourself of! Make the trip to Little Haiti and pick up this staple! Their patties are good too. read more

I like there bread and tablèt with the cashew nuts , Irish moss drink hits the spot fresh and nice

This place is a neighborhood gem. The meat pastries are always hot, fresh, and flaky goodness. The giant slices of yellow cake are the thing of childhood dreams. Definitely, stop in when you're in the neighborhood. read more

Their food is delicious!!!!!! Sometimes the customer service is a little lacking if your not Haitian but besides that I'm obsessed with their food ! read more

One of the best Haitian patty places in Miami. I stop by there in the morning at times to treat myself to a taste of home. The patties are reminiscent of the ones I loved from my childhood in Haiti. Hot, flaky and tasty! They offer flavors like beef, chicken and codfish. Each has a good level of spiciness, so be careful if spicy is not your thing. read more

Pretty good Haitian bakery. If you go in the morning get yourself a fresh loaf of Haitian bread. Make sure you eat it within a couple of hours though or it'll harden so much you can kill a man with it! Another really good option are the pates (pronounced Pah-tays). They are the Haitian equivalent of pastelitos. They are made with puff pastry and come in a beef or cod fish filling, both of which are very good. Live a little! Go get yourself some Haitian baked goods in the 'hood! read more

Yum! Yum! Yum! Great Haitian Bakery. Great Haitian bread. The Best bread I have ever tasted. This is pretty much what we come here for. Their patties are good as well. The only setback is the long line. Perhaps best to come early. read more

I usually come here on Saturday morning to get a quick snack before heading out on my weekend errands. Their specialities........THE PATTIES AND HOT HAITIAN BREAD. Keep in mind that on Saturday the lines are pretty long but it will definetly be worth the wait. They have 2 kinds of pattie either the beef or cod fish. The cod fish is the best in my opinion because of the spices and the hint of hot pepper. But I would suggest just getting both cause they are both great. The hot bread would be a great combination with their Haitian Drink called "Akasan" or as they younger Haitian generation would call it AK-100. It's a kind of sweet, milky drink in the form of a milkshake but not as thick. I would definetly recommend this place to anyone looking to get a taste of Haiti while in Little Haiti. One tip I would recommend is to always have cash, especially small bills because they rarely ever have change for $20 and they do not take cards which is a definite down side. read more

The best haitian patties in south florida must try cod fish is my favorite. In the haitian bread.

delicious haitian bread. Amazing AK-100. Horrible patties. Hardly any taste. I also hate when they make the filling into a paste instead of actually filling it in with the meats. Not a fan and as a Haitian, I KNOW my patties. read more

I am from Washington DC and I have visited this bakery for the last 5 yrs whenever I am in Miami. I have found it to be the best bakery for Haitian sweets. The Haitian cake, lemonade, coconut cakes, patties, and tablet de pistash candies are my favorite items. Its a mom & pop establishment with friendly folks. read more
