What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Wu Pao Chun Bakery is celebrated for its exceptional, award-winning bread that masterfully blends Asian and European influences. Diners rave about the creative flavor combinations and high quality of the baked goods, though some note that prices are on the higher end. The bakery offers a pleasant shopping experience with a spacious interior and helpful staff.
"I am so impressed with this bakery! I love bread, and always thought that such a high quality bakery could only be found in Europe. This place is every bit as good as famous French bakeries!
Unfortunately there is not really any seating, but maybe that’s just as well, because if there was, I would probably stay all day buying more and more bread snacks."

"We got some nice breads and pineapple cake from this famous bakery while recovering from indigestion issue in Taipei and Kaohsiung. Luckily their breads / buns are good and we especially like their Salzburg ham & cheese bread, floss & seaweed bun, and red-bean bun.
The bakery shop is nicely decorated and quite spacious so you can shop with no anxiety like in other bakeries across Taiwan. The customer services from staff members are also good and they reasonably speak adequate English for tourists like us, but don't expect much conversation. However, you can ask about their products in English and get reasonable / understandable reply. Prices are still good value for the high quality, though they may feel high compared to other bakeries' offering in the area."

"Loves the bread here. The loaf, the buns, etc. The variations and creativity are good. It satisfies my Carbo craves. My favourite is the Custarnova - the custard is fresh and soft, sesame mochi 😋, brown raisin - simple yet yummy, brown sugar loaf, etc."

Like Gang Yuan Beef Noodles, this is another place that you’ll find on every “must-eat in Kaohsiung” list.
