Miam Bakery — Restaurant in Hong Kong Island

I used to like this place until what happened today.

I went to Miam bakery after 6pm without knowing that it usually closes at 6. I made my order but realised that I didn’t have enough cash, so I told them I would go to ATM to withdraw cash for it. The staff told me “ok”. However, after I withdrew the cash and went back to the shop, the SAME staff didn’t prepare my order and told me the shop was closed at 6. I can’t understand if you couldn’t keep your words why would say ok for my order???

I am sorry that I didn’t notice your closing time was 6, and I fully understood it was over your working time too. I wouldn’t mind if you told me when I firstly entered the shop that your closing time was 6 or you’d close soon so no more order. For 100% sure I would revisit the bakery like I always did. However, I didn’t see my time and effort for being trustworthy was valued by the staff. :(

What can I say? Thank you for your previous service, effort that put into baking. However, I wish customers could be more valued...

I love the ham & cheese croissant here but my gripe is that my taste doesn't seem to align with the rest of their customer base. To me, their salty, smoky ham and cheese rolled and baked into the croissant dough is the ultimate guilty pleasure for breakfast, but it often doesn't hit the shelves until at least 10:30, usually 11, by which time breakfast is a mere distant memory for me. Whoever's eating apple turnovers for breakfast, you're hogging precious oven space!!!

The almond croissant with the cakey-craquelin-esque topping is also a decadent treat, but too sweet for my breakfast tooth. I see lots of reviews for the cinnamon bun which is more Scandinavian in style than US Cinnabon, so manage expectations accordingly. I keep meaning to try some of the bread items but I'm usually too disappointed the ham & cheese croissants still...

Located on Third Street, Sai Ying Pun, Miam Bakery is a bakery shop that sells seemingly freshly made bread, croissants, twists, muffins, and cinnamon buns.

The cinnamon bun was why I paid a visit to this bakery before hitting the gym. My friend said she first visited Miam Bakery when it was newly opened, the cinnamon bun was just so so, as it broke into pieces…

But I guess Miam Bakery has improved their recipe, or maybe staying overnight allowed the bun to soak up more moisture in the air, this cinnamon I got made a great breakfast on the day after I bought it. It was dense (and stayed as a whole piece), and the strong cinnamon flavor was so enjoyable! Absolutely lovely!

Beware of the thin aluminum foil at the bottom though, it’s so thin and sharp that it cut...
