Fay Da Bakery

Elmhurst and Jackson Heights are known for their many bakeries from different parts of the world. If you lived in the area stretching back 25+ years, these Asian bakeries have been an essential part of your daily morning routine (coffees and bread 🙌). You can never go wrong by popping in and grabbing something that you know was freshly baked, on the run—like what I just did. Let’s not forget to recognize the always friendly staff.

This bakery offers a wide selection of delicious Asian baked goods at very affordable prices. The staff work quickly and efficiently, though service is more straightforward than warm, as English isn’t their first language. The shop is kept clean, and the seating area is often filled with older regulars enjoying conversations over pastries and tea, which adds to the authentic atmosphere. Credit cards are accepted, but note there’s a $10 minimum for transactions.

So we always purchase a cake for celebration. When picking up the cake the staff was nice. After picking up the cake, we refrigerated it. Later in the evening when we opened the box up we saw the strawberries had mold. It was very unfortunate.

Great bakery. Also, to that driver who probably felt offended by my accidental wave ignorance at the intersection here, then I apologize for that. Thank you.

The food is disgusting. They force you to pay $10 and up with card. I got steamed buns and Japanese cake. The chicken in buns tastes weird and the cake smells like it was here for a while. Got ice chocolate and it’s just water with chocolate powder. The worst $12 spend.
