KEE WAH BAKERY, San Gabriel 奇華餅家

Old school Canto bakery, great place to pick up your pineapple buns, Portuguese egg tarts, BBQ Pork buns, etc. as well as birthday cake needs etc. Friendly staff, English and Chinese speaking. Consistent quality.

Mom needed bread so we checked this place out. Located in the San Gabriel Square, this tiny store is packed with lots of goodies. I always buy their handmade almond cookies and red bean swirl bun, so I made sure I got some. They also have moon cakes. Inside, the store is well-lighted, with regular noise level. The breads and pastries were arranged neatly, but the aisles are tight, you can’t walk freely in case you bump into another customer or the food items. There is no dine-in section, so this is purely a to-go store. You pick up a tray and select your pastries then pay up front.

There's no real atmosphere because it's not a sit down place. It's a bakery where you pick up your items, pay, and leave. There are no tables and chairs to sit at. The bakery items are all Hong Kong style bakery items like pineapple buns, sponge cake wrapped in paper, breads, pastries, moon cakes, and other goodies.

Kee Wah Bakery -- CITY San Gabriel, LOCATION.... OFF OF DEL MAR > On Valley Blvd -- right off the City Neighborhood "Side Street." ABBOTT AVE. Small,, one way / one direction parking lot in back of store. Entrance / exit off of Abbott Ave.

Limited selection of fresh baked goods on walk in, but lots available by special order. Thankfully they seem to always have the egg tarts, Portuguese included, available. Very well done. They also have a great selection of gift boxes of cookies and other treats.
