It's the one and only Chinese bakery near my apartment. Thank goodness for that. I moved from Chinatown to Jackson Heights. I need the occasional Chinese food that is not from a American Chinese place, ick. I need to a place to buy Chinese baos so thank goodness there is Max Bakery by the 7 train as I get off! I need the occasional hot dog bun, ham and egg bun, or Custard/Pineapple bun. They even have the pick "4 choices with soup" for $5 buffet that I am accustomed to in Chinatown.
The ham and egg and chicken buns are very tasty here. The staff is very patient to explain what everything is. The bun variety is small but as far as taste goes, Max Bakery is much better than the bakeries by the Roosevelt Avenue subway station. It's too bad that Max Bakery doesn't sell baked roast pork buns or any steamed buns. I hope they expand their inventory to include these items one day. I have no where to buy steamed roast pork buns or steamed chicken buns near me. Sad face.
The buffet food has been consistently delicious and fresh. I just wish they had more variety. It's almost all chicken. Kinda boring. choices. They just put up sneeze guards in front of the buffet.
I just tried their chicken sandwich which is ground chicken meat that is seasoned and cooked into long patty. It is delicious! I can't wait to go back! Their strongest product is the ham and egg bun and the chicken sandwich. YUM.
My all time favorite is the fried fish sandwich. They go like hot cakes for everyone loves them. Big piece of breaded fried fish sits on crunchy romaine lettuce with some mayo. Piping hot right out of the oven this morning. Only $2.00! I have eaten these sandwiches for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Their croissants are good too as well as the hot dog buns.
The place is located right under the train station of the 7 line. Had no idea it was here till my brother came home everyday with something from Max Bakery. I was sold.
Have not tried their take out food yet. From the reviews from other Yelpers and photos, I will be back.
It is unbelievable that there is a decent Asian Bakery in this neighborhood.
Lot of standard baked items to chose from and they discount them after 5pm; 3 buns for $2.00.
The takeout food is 3 selections with rice or noodles for $5.00 from a steam table and a cup of soup A good deal! Drawback is they have the same items everyday.
It gets crowded during supper time.
Great place for delicious Chinese pastries. They have hot tea, coffee, and other beverages! I really like the lady who worked there. She told they are open 5:30 am until 10 pm. I ordered a small hot coffee with an egg, ham, lettuce bun which was really fresh. I could taste the crunch of the lettuce. I also ordered an almond twist which was crispy and light. It is not easy to find, but you can enter on 90th Street nearby the train 7 train exit at 90st. Wow! I am so going back.
