Maxim's Bakery Chinatown

Maxim's is quite popular in the Chinese community for their baked goods. My favorite thing at Maxim's is their fruit cake. It is light, spongy with the perfect amount of sweetness. The cream is also light and fluffy too. I have been to the restaurant but I highly recommend their baked goods.

Great place to buy your buns and pasties.There's even a sit down dine in restaurant upstairs.

I believe this is the best maxim in Vancouver, came here first time and they had more variety than other maxim

Their yin yang (coffee/tea mix) is my favorite!! Be careful with their massive sugar bottles tho, it will give you twice the sugar you want! We had French toast, pineapple bun, and broccoli soup; and they were all excellent….and inexpensive. Cash only.Their French toast is so different from western kind but so good. It’s a must try.Also liked their mango pudding. It had lots of fresh mango pieces. One of the best in town.

The fresh mango cake was absolutely heavenly. The thin fruit slices were so fresh and tasty and the not too heavy whipped cream with the light cake base was just so well done. Also got a bunch of really tasty smaller pastries that were SUCH good value amazing egg tarts, pineapple bun, Mexico bun… all these things for under $50. Cash only… but to me the ever so slight inconvenience is more than worth the incredible deal you get.
