We typically stop in for the pineapple rolls when in China Town. As usual they were fresh and tasty. Short line but really no wait we were in and out. read more

Love this Bakery and very inexpensive.. from hot foods to sweets. Great location good service.

This bakery is close to the Canal street train station which is where I stop by every time before heading back home. With a large selection of different breads, desserts and drinks I think it's probably one of her best bakeries in the area. My favorite is the pineapple cake which only cost $1 and I still want to try so much more from here. It's always busy and the seating is always full so just be aware that you might not get a seat if you want. read more

Delicious Chinese bakery. The sesame balls were excellent. But the rice cake stuffed with mango was divine.

I'm giving this business one star although it's doesn't deserve it, to me it shouldn't get one, I ordered a custom cake for my newborn's baptism celebration, a moment that was anxiously awaited by all of our friends and family, I'm very disappointed and upset about the service I got for the amount of money that I paid and my baby's cake, when the cake arrived to our hands it was crumbled on it's self, It was completely collapsed, it was completely wrapped in plastic and the was inclosed, when It was picked up the manager of the establishment didn't allow the person to go side the bakery and take it him self instead, the manager took the cake to the car and all he said is to be careful with it knowing that something like this would happen, and lastly what I got was something completely different to what I ordered and that by its self was already upsetting for me, like I said, what I got for what I paid is not worth it. After speaking to the manager and explaining to him what had happened, he refused to work something out with me about resolving this issue, instead Hung up the phone, after trying to call him again and again he still didn't provide me with a way to resolve this issue I strongly don't recommend this place what so ever read more

Rude and unprofessional lady SKIPPED ME IN LINE. Completely disregarded my presence. If I'm a paying customer than they should cater to the customer?!? Keep in mind they don't speak English and they keep messing up on what bread go give to their customer. I HATE THIS PLACE AND WILL TAKE MY BUSINESS ELSEWHERE. ALSO THEIR BUBBLE TEA SUCKS. LEGIT 80% of it is water. Horrible. read more

Mochi is the best in the area and is also homemade! Very reasonable prices. Matcha cream puffs are to die for. Cash only though!!

Great steamed pork buns. Best I've had so far. The pastries are good too but you could maybe get a better deal elsewhere although it's all cheap regardless. read more

My go-to Chinese bakery in New York City. Service is fast, food is fresh, no frills, just deliciousness. They seem to have started putting all of the desserts in little baggies now to promote sanitation, probably due to COVID. At least when I was there, there was still a line out the door so it seems like they're doing good business. I'm not looking for anything too fancy, just a very good pineapple bun and sesame ball that taste well-crafted. Never been disappointed yet! read more

My first time here. Cup of coffee $1.10 (not bad) Sat to enjoy. Open the lid to let some steam out. Thats when I saw my coffee an 1" lower than the top line. Kinda low. But coffee was better than most places read more

Got the huge sugar donut for $1.30! The donut is absolutely huge!! They put a lot of sugar on it, but that's what makes it delicious. The donut itself is very big and extremely tasty. Perfect dessert! Would definitely come back to get more. read more

I love that they have Dou Jiang.... Interesting how difficult it is to find hot soy milk... The snacks and pastries here are good too...

Disappointed to find such small amount of filling inside my cake but then again, all bakeries are stingy like this now. The cake itself doesn't taste very good either read more

Sweets Bakery - Very little filling and taste and texture is eh - Bubble Tea Near Me - New York, New York

Third in our bakery stop before a really calamitous experience of thousand year old egg pastries (cue cricket chirps mixed with the always reliable sound of heavy booting). Sweets is reliable, offering more interesting pastries (read: unadventurous but sweet variety of taro + custard, so on) than Fay Da but is definitely on the pricier side for Chinatown. We had a pineapple bun and hot dog egg bun with meat floss. The pineapple bun was good, light and sweet, and personally did not have any of the meat bun given my dietary independence but my friends enjoyed it and ate it quite quickly. The ladies at Sweets will pick out your selections for you (perhaps they had too many people filching or dropping pastries on the ground when trying to pick themselves. Always super packed so don't bet on getting seating, but the ground is 100p authentic locals, a demographic I always like to see. read more

Caveat- my opinion of a Chinese bakery is mostly based on how good its custard bun is. The baked pineapple custard bun here is outstanding, and enough of a reason to give Sweets a visit. It's crumbly on the outside with angelic custard filling on the inside. And it's pretty big too. Honestly, I enjoyed this $1.40 pastry more than I would enjoy a $40 steak. My friend also raved about his Taro bubble tea if that's your thing. Would highly recommend stopping by for a quick, cheap dessert after a savory Chinatown meal (good pho across the street btw). read more

Fun selection, although the woman picking baked goods on Friday afternoon 3/19 was super rude. Red bean bun tasty but heavy. Pineapple bun light & sweet. Cashier was sweet. read more

The red bean bun here is absolutely amazing! It is the softest I have ever had! They also have almond cookies that are absolutely enormous for only $1.50! Absolutely will be back again. read more

Stumbled upon this bakery while walking around looking for a good boba place. Great selection of freshly baked buns, rolls, and other delicious bread items. I got the curry bun and a milk tea boba, which were so satisfying that I went back later on to refuel. Seating space is fairly limited, as it is a small corner bakery, but that is expected for city spaces. I definitely recommend this place if you want a quick bite to eat during the day. read more

If I could give them 1 star, I would. They can BARELY speak English and get the order right. When I pointed out the mistake, instead of rectifying the problem, the manager had the audacity to actually try and pull a fast one by having me pay a lot more for their mistake when they couldn't get the order right. I was so dumbfounded that I was going to be charged for their wrong order and their inability to understand basic English that I had to just walk away. Don't bother unless you speak Chinese or if you're okay paying for the wrong order. read more

I went to Sweets today for the first time since it is near my office. I ordered the Taro Bubble Tea..wowzy! It was so good!! I normally get Bubble Tea near my house uptown but this could be my second favorite Bubble Tea place. 自從我在辦公室附近以來，我第一次去了糖果店。我點了芋頭泡茶。真是太好了！我通常會在我家的房子附近喝泡泡茶，但這可能是我第二喜歡的泡茶館。 read more

The crappiest $4 red bean ice I ever had in my life. No taste at all. I went back to tell them & they just stared at me. No acknowledgement of what so ever to change or try to add more flavor to it. Will never come back. I expect a little better than water tasting drink for $4. read more

OUTSTANDING!!!! THE compilation of exotic breads, cakes and cookies is a gastronomical delight! Couple some sweets with coffee and you have the best of New York experiences! Don't miss Sweets Bakery!!! read more

This is definitely one of the better cheap eat bakeries in china town. It's also one of the nicest bakeries and carries a large variety of desserts and savory snacks. Be aware though that you have to purchase at least 4 slices to purchase any slices of cake, which didn't make much sense to me but . I would definitely recommend the croissant hot dog. read more

Sweets Bakery - Chinese sugar donut stick. 4/5 tastes like those little sugar donuts you can buy at any Chinese place, but it's huge so I bought it. - Bubble Tea Near Me - New York, New York

I've had a ton of char siu bao in NYC, but this has to be my favorite. They also have delicious mochi!

I've been coming to this bakery for over five years now and love it. The bakery is diverse, affordable and well visited. Service is fast and efficient. This is one of the best kept secrets in the Manhattan Chinatown. read more

Pros: -decent amount of seating compared to neighboring bakeries -staff is present to take your order -steamed pork bun was tasty and well worth it Cons: -popular joint, seats were all taken -you have to stand behind the barrier and order -red bean bun had a fermented taste read more

Dont go here. I asked for lychee bubble tea and I got some lychee blended with crushed ice. Lol 0 stars

So I wanted to get some steamed pork buns before heading back to Boston and I headed to what used to be dragon land bakery, a place I've visited for years, and it's gone! In its place is sweets. Luckily the setup is the same and the food and pricing is pretty on par with dragon land. It might even be the same owners, aside from the name it's not much different. I got two steamed pork buns and two red bean buns. I like that they offer both steamed and baked pork buns, it's nice to have options! I wasn't hungry when I bought them so I didn't get anything until after it had gone cold, but the steamed pork bun was fluffy and juicy and delicious! I haven't had a bean bun yet, but it looks amazing! I wish I had bought more pork buns because the other one I have is for a friend. read more

Currently sitting in sweets bakery fuming. Tbh their desserts aren't great. Bland mango roll. Tiramisu was more jelly than cakey and the chocolate mousse was just cake no mousse. But idc about that. I'm writing this bc my boyfriend and I came in here for a sweet after dinner and there were two girls and a guy behind the counter. One of the girls had glasses and she "helped" us. I sat down and waited for my bf to pay, meanwhile she's not ringing anything up, then she's ignoring him, then what really set it off is she pointed at me while talking to her coworker and started laughing hysterically. Not f*cking cool. When I went up to the counter to ask for forks and a napkin, I got ignored by her and the male counter on his phone. He looked dead at me and pointed to her to get me stuff. The whole time we ate, she's pointing and staring and laughing. Poor customer service. read more

The sugar donuts are the best I've ever had. I tried the baked pork bun for the first time yesterday and it was delicious. The prices are great and the staff is very friendly and patient. They have a nice variety of pastries. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone with a sweet tooth. read more

This is my second time here and I made sure to bookmark it on yelp this time. There homemade cheesecake cakes are amazing. It taste like pound cake and cheeaecake together. I will definitely be back go try the other goodies. The prices are fair and the quality is amazing! read more

Great egg tarts. Tried Dan ta and pu ta and liked both- Dan ta was classic, no issues with a burnt crust or the filling, which was sweet and creamy. Pu ta was well made as well with not too much filling crust. Unremarkable but perfect! read more

Found this bakery while strolling through Chinatown and so glad we stopped in! Everything was very fresh and they had a great selection of sweet and savory pastries. We tried a couple things (taro bun, custard bun, and ham and cheese bun) and loved everything! The best thing is almost everything is less than $2! read more

Omg this is by far the greatest chinese bakery i love coming to chinatown and always must stop here for the coconut butter cream filling bread and a coffee. I try several bakeries in the area and other countries but no . There no bread like this one . I always get one eat in and like 5 to take home . Usually theres no lines they are really clean and fresh the make them every day. Excellent for breackfast . Also they have a huge viraety of desserts. read more

This is my go to stop over the years I've been visiting NY. I think they recently changed their name so it doesn't match with what you google online. 3 dollar large bubble tea and all the Chinese buns you can imagine on their bun wall. Grab a bubble tea and it'll last you through your whole walk down to battery park and then some! read more

Good bubble tea, and at 7pm they still had a variety of other pastries available. Prices are about what they are in other bakeries nearby- I didn't try the pork buns because I was already full when I came food wise, but they looked worth coming back for. The grass jelly tea was really good, if a little sweet- friend got Taro and really enjoyed it. If I'm in the area again I'd definitely try the baked goods. read more

Love the taro mochi and mango mochi--I stop by for this every time I'm nearby. The egg tarts are okay, so I usually get them elsewhere but the mochi is the best in the area! read more

Just ate a sesame ball from Sweets on my subway ride home. It was cold, and thus a just a bit greasy (but what else can you expect just before closing) - but completely awesome! The crispy coating, the mochi, the red bean paste - all yummy and delicious. Priced right and the perfect filling snack - I'm definitely going to try some of the other items that reviewers mentioned. read more

This was the first ever bakery that I visited when they move to New York and if you enjoy Asian bakery is just like me you would definitely like it, they have very nice pastries and flavors and it's rather cheap it's very conveniently located by the Canal Street subway and also near Chinatown travel kiosk, this is a wonderful pointt to start off your Chinatown tour! PS. They except cards and cash alike. read more

My boyfriend and I were just exploring the streets of chinatown and decided to stop by this bakery for a drink. This bakery was pretty busy, a little small inside and not many seating. Anyways, I ordered the lychee slush with tapioca and my boyfriend had the almond milk with tap. Wow the lychee was so refreshing, made with fresh fruit! So satisfying. As with the almond milk, very diff and good. I'd say tastes better than regular milk tea. Everything was so cheap here, we were too full to get any baked goods but I'm sure their all delicious! read more
