We have been going to this bakery for many years. Over time, the filling in their BBQ pork buns have been decreasing with the prices increasing. Our last purchase of pork buns was all bun and very little filling. Very disappointing and will never go back. Anyone know of a better Chinese bakery, we would appreciate a referral

Their BBQ pork buns and egg tarts are probably one of the best in the city. I load up whenever we are at Sun’s for lunch. They only lose a star for the grumpy lady that cashes you out. She’s not always there but it really seems like she hates her job sometimes. :( Regardless, I still recommend them.

I read the previous reviews about the incidents they had. However, I can tell the store is definitely making an effort to improve the customer service. I was at bakery to buy some buns and egg tarts today, and the owner and staff were very friendly and helpful.

I visited several times so far, all are good!!! I love egg tarts, bbq pork bun, chinese doughnut, curry beef bun, pork floss spring onion bun, raisin pastry…. I love them all and am willing to return again. All were fresh when i bought them which I most love!

There are a lot good bread, but the staff there has bad attitude, also they needs to learn how to pack the bread well because they don't provide box and they don't zip the individual bread so all the bread will come out together when you get home.

I have been going to the Maxima bakery in Vancouver's since I was a kid, it was nice to find that there is one near where I live now! I love the sesame and red bean balls as well as the hotdog buns, I wish they had the one with the mayo tho. More

  • Danielle Chong

While the pineapple buns here are pretty good, the ladies working have really bad customer service. They don't smile or say thank you but being Chinese I guess that's the norm. But what really rubbed me wrong was when the lady working there

  • italdaniel

I'm from toronto which has alot of great bun places, but when I visited calgary and I got my hands on some of those buns I have to say it's some of the best buns I've had. The softness and texture of the bread and the well seasoned meet on

  • Stephen C

Absolutely disgusting customer service. The customers were asking about prices for the different buns they picked out on their tray. The two workers decided to give the customers an attitude. Example, “You don’t know how to read? The

Not very good at all. Coconut and pineapple buns were disappointing: dough was dry and crispy top was not crispy….didn’t taste freshly baked at all. The bakery across the way (Logos?) at the Central Landmark is way better.

  • Gerik Yang

Their “Rice Krispie squares” are amazing. I drive a long way just to get those. Make sure you come here early for the best selection. They tend to run out of certain items and have limited selection if you come too late.

  • Shehzana Bawa

Clean bakery with fresh sesame balls and mochi. You will find many other Chinese sweet options. It was my first time to try and turned out to be good. Not a big fan but still would go again to try more.

  • Nhi

Delicious and great size/portion! We appreciate when we split the pastries in half there is barely any space between the filling and the bun. Amazing quality. Best Chinese bakery for all your craves.

  • C “CalVan” Deng

Maxima, 美芯is the one favourite bakery for the HongKong style sweet soft bread bakery, consistent flavour, right texture and freshness every time, we come here almost weekly and today we got these.

  • Jay Sun

Excellent BBQ pork buns with decent amount of filling. Egg tarts are good, and I think the only place to sell a legitimate Hong Kong style pineapple bun (served with thick slice of butter!)

  • Sharon Gong

This is my favourite bakery in town! Every time I’m in Calgary I always have to make a stop here to pick up some buns! The bread is so soft and everything is always seasoned perfectly!

  • Thanh Huynh

One of the BEST chinese raisin bun in Calgary... love the buttery sweetness of the doh.. almost like a danish... That sweet buttery glaze on top just makes it more complete...

  • Michael Ahn

Bought some Curry chicken buns and pineapple buns to enjoy on a hike. The perfect snack to enjoy amongst the majestic mountains. The best chinese buns in Calgary!

  • CC Y

Ordered 2-pound birthday cake recently, disappointed with thick sponge cake with just single filling layer. No good on decoration.

  • Florence Tan

Their cake rolls and cakes are good. Located by Lambda Supermarket. Prices are still very reasonable compared to other bakeries.

  • Knottie

I’ve been going here since I was a child. The buns are some of the best I’ve ever had.

Just pay n go. Definitely NOT for people who seeking a good service, but the price is unbeatable.

  • L Fong

Our daughter likes their Chinese style baked goods! Note that they're only cash or debit card.

  • Justin Kwong

Nice little shop. Best deal on buns in the afternoon if you are looking for a large quantity.

  • Jeremy Reimer

Delicious buns! At an affordable price too. Parking is a bit lean but 100% worth the hassle

  • LEI WU

All the breads are very good, but the short hair lady attitude ruined everything.
