Feida Bakery - Chicago
Feida Bakery
Description
Hidden in Chinatown, this no-frills Chinese bakery serves authentic, freshly baked pastries—lotus, red bean, pork buns, Swiss rolls and more—at remarkably low prices. A counter-service favorite for breakfast, brunch and snacks, it draws locals with soft buns, flaky pastries and generous fillings, all manually prepared and available for takeout during long hours. Expect simple surroundings and cash-only transactions; occasional reports of canned smoothies and an isolated hygiene/quality complaint temper otherwise glowing praise.

This place only accepts cash, but I managed to get all of this for just $5.90! The pastries may not be the prettiest, but they were all delicious. From left to right: Lotus Paste Mini Mooncake, Winter Melon Cake, ?? (some sort of sticky rice cake filled with red bean paste), and a taro paste cake. My favorite was definitely the red bean sticky rice; the texture was perfectly balanced—not too sticky and not too dense. The taro paste also had a wonderful texture, which I've only really come across in Chinese bakeries, at least in my experience.
This must be my favorite bakery shop in Chinatown. The prices are amazing! I stop every time I go to Chinatown. My favorite is the winter melon bread. It has such a beautiful texture. There are many ways to choose from you.
This traditional Chinese bakery offers incredibly affordable prices. On our first visit, we tried the big pork buns, mung bean biscuits, gai zai cookies, and coffee Swiss roll, and we couldn't get enough! The very next day, we returned for more Swiss rolls, mung bean biscuits, six big pork buns, and a few other breads. While the flavors may not be the absolute best in the world, they definitely have that authentic taste filled with rich flavors. Plus, the prices are literally half of what you'll find at the nearby store. We'll definitely be back for more bread!
It was a very great place, it was clean, pretty great decor. It also had a dine in and cold drinks. The food was clean, cheap, good quality, and it was absolutely delicious. There was so many desserts and pastries, not too many choices that it’s overwhelming. GREAT price, $5 and you can buy a lot of tasty things with great quality and taste. Authentic chinese pastries and desserts. I can’t recommend enough for you to go there. They also had great service. BY THE WAY THEY only accept cash. It is also very traditional and nothing too thrilling.
The service was extremely friendly, and the breakfast was simply delicious. The coffee was excellent as well! They open at 7 AM and only accept cash.
