Tasty sweet and savory Philippine cakes and breads. Owner was nice. It’s a bit hidden.It’s takeout only place with all the food in pre-packages spread on a plastic table. So, not a fancy place… in fact a bit run down.It is hidden among the cars in the parking space for a local hardware store (accidentally found this while visiting the hardware store).Worth trying again… but check the timings and days it’s open (it’s closed 3 days a week.

The person inside the store is really nice and kind and friendly. If you buy a lot of products he throws in some freebies? . Definitely would recommend and will come back. And the breads are heavenly good ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Haven't tried many Filipino bakeries so this was a first for me and boy was it a great surprise. Ensaymadas were good (Yema + Ube flavors). My nieces liked the Ube ensaymada. But when I came back another day for the Ube muffins + Guava muffin, very moist and delicious + cream cheese! Coming with Asian tastes I prefer not too sweet and not too heavy on the cream. This bakery makes me want to search for other Filipino bakeries in other areas and try out their stuff. I think it has set the bar very high. It's not a economic choice if you're looking for the cheapest of things but I would prefer to have this on special occasions. Can't wait to try the Ube pie or other stuff.Either way, come and visit. The owner is really nice and it smells great in there.

A little too sweet for me, maybe fit who is the sweet lovers.

I LOVE BUNSO BREADS BAKERY & CAFE! I'm also glad it's a place that I have to make a special trip out to get because I would be so chub chub if it was within ..... I don't know, 10min driving distance? haha I'd be here all the time. BUT because I am NOT there all the time, I buy A LOT when I come. What can I say? I love my ube.This is a bit of a delayed post because I've been here at least a hand full of times since the pandemic, usually ordering ahead online (very convenient btw, and a good way to make sure you get everything you want- note that quantities are usually in dozens, but you can easily finish them all). However, this past Friday I happen to be in the area with my mom and decided to walk in and try our luck. Luckily the owner had a little of everything, so I indulged myself in.......everything. I walked in with my mom and the the owner was super sweet so we got to chat with her for a little bit.I would not recommend walk in because if you don't come first thing, she will sell out of items you may want to try. So again, order ahead on the website- It's very convenient.Items I would highly recommend:- Ube senorita bread (good for a few days after if you keep it in the fridge and microwave it back for 15sec)- Yema ensaymada (good for a few days after if you keep it in the fridge and microwave it back for 15sec)- Ube cream cheese pillow bread (these don't keep as well so best consumed fresh! When it's fresh it's SO soft and good)Other items I also enjoy:- Ube crinkle cookies - though a tad too sweet for me sometimes, but flavor is good- Coconut ube pieNow get out there and support your small local bakery that is packed with delicious Filipino goodies!

Owner very friendly....price a bit high due to inflation....quality of buko pie is pretty good.

Yummy Filipino pastries, no bread fyi.

Omg, this place will definitely get me in some trouble!The owner is super sweet reminded me so much of being in the Philippines!I am not sure how I never knew this place existed. But hey I know now! I got there soon as they opened and waited a few minutes to order. I ended up getting some ensaymada balls, Buko pie, Ube senorita bread ! I love the Buko pie it reminded me of the Philippines so much. Now that I know it's here I will be back more often to try more goodie!

Love the pies and pastry.
