Kien Giang Bakery
1471 Echo Park Ave, Los Angeles, CA
Crema's Take
“Tucked away near Echo Park, this hidden gem Vietnamese bakery excels at doing the essentials beautifully—their banh mi sandwiches are consistently praised for being fresh and crunchy, with impressive variety including vegan options, while their specialty drinks like the yin yang are equally memorable. The warm, attentive service combined with both traditional Vietnamese beverages and creative specialty drinks makes it feel like discovering a local secret that deserves to be known, especially if you're craving authentic banh mi or want to pair a perfect coffee moment with fresh Vietnamese pastries.”

If you’re local and are in search of Vietnamese baked goods or bahn mi this is the place! It was a pleasant surprise knowing we have a Vietnamese bakery near our home and don’t have to make the drive to Orange County for cravings. We purchased a bahn tet and other lunar year goodies which were both delicious! Looking forward to picking up bahn mi on our way to Dodgers games this season! Highly recommended with a friendly staff!
We absolutely loved this place. Never knew it was there. Such a gem to find. It's kinda hidden so easily missed unfortunately but great service and yummy sandwiches and drinks. With the combo you get a wonderful slice of cake also. Must visit and try
I tasted food at this Vietnamese Bakery for the first time in December 2024, when i was visiting my son in LA. I had ordered their vegan spare ribs Bahn Mi sandwich and the yan yin drink . I was floored by the Bahn me , crunchy bread, juicy and flavourful filling, and fresh salad. The taste lingered on . So today , I could visit again during lunch time, … the ambience is lovely , well lit , clean, cheerful. there is adequate seating outdoor, Parking available , which is so convenient. Service is superb, the girl at the counter is very sweet and welcoming , guides you as per your requirement, Today I repeated my order and its a ten on ten , the Dpare ribs Bahn Mi and Vietnamese cold coffee was also good. Will visit again if I get the opportunity. It’s a Hidden Gem in LA ❤️
Super yummy bakery with vegan and non vegan bahn mi! I’ve gotten the vegan pork, chicken, and spare rib, and they’ve all been incredible! Always friendly service and there is seating both inside and outside. They also have a lot of desserts although sadly not many of them are vegan, but they look delicious! Definitely a spot worth checking out if you’re hungry in echo park!
If you are in the area of Echo Park, then you have to stop by for their fresh crunchy banh mi sandwich and a cake of any kind💖 first time here since I was working in the area and needed a break. The service was attentive, kind and fast. The menu simple and delicious. I only got a pic of the cake because I already ate the sandwich. The private patio is clean and cute, AND they have parking!
