Golden Bakeshop

This place serves the best Filipino baked goods I’ve ever had — better than Manila Bakery, FV, and the like. Their pandesal (filipino milk bread) is delightful, and if you go during the morning time you can catch freshly made, and still warm pandesal. They have a second location on Burnhamthorpe and Martingrove beside the Subway and Pizza Pizza.
Also I love their Ube bread (purple yam), it’s a must-​try for newbies to Filipino Food. It doesn’t sound that appealing, but it is one of the centrepieces of Filipino cuisine and is just delightful.

This review is solely based on the quality of this bakery’s baked goodies.
Yes, I can easily be put off by the ugly cardboard boxes covering the bottom part of the windows and old/​unkept bakery interior BUT, I knew this was a rare Filipino Bakery (My kids LOVE their baked goods!!) so I keep on coming back :)
The owner is super nice and as usual, I buy 4 freshly-​out of the oven coconut buns, which cost only around $ 2.75, the aroma of these buns is to die for, they’re palm-​sized and are filled with fresh and creamy coconut filling :)

Please do me a favour, if you ever come here and decide to write a review, PLEASE write about their food, not the way their business looks or makes you feel, Filipino bakeries are few and far between, this tiny business is a hidden gem, really deserves to stay open and do well, they just need our support and understanding :)
