Kc’s Pastries Northeast

Does anyone know the hours for this bakery? Like when it’s open and when it’s closed?

Their lunch platters are the best!

The ladies were very nice, I had a lychee bubble tea and a few different pastries. Not everything was translated to english, but everything was good. I will be back.

Deep in Northeast is theui7 real Chinatown on the 6800 block of Bustleton Ave. Three decent places serving mainly a Chinese clientele and the few others who dare enter find poor English and good food for relatively low prices.
KC’s is mainly a Chinese bakery and they are certainly a credible if not the finest example of such. By the by they serve a very decent cup of coffee for a buck fifty. There also have the typical swinging doors to ‘the back’ and from time to time i have seen interesting looking dishes emerge.
After a while I screwed up my courage and asked for a menu. and got a half decent translation on two pages of many different things all for 5 bucks.
I had Singapore chow mai fun (even though I ordered the unusual chow fun version) and it was ok — not too spiced but a generous portion and certainly quite edible– some soy and a touch of sriracha doctored it up pretty well. Also had some mushroom and shrimp — not haut cuisine but this Busstleton ave AOC was tasty — loads of clearly fresh mushrooms, some typical small likely frozen shrimp some beef gravy and a big mound of white rice.
There are loads of other dishes available as well — not too great for those who think beef chow mein is an adventurous meal and hey don’t forget the cash only five buck price. You get a nice filling meal here for the money, and then you can take some decent Chinese desert home or perhaps some pork buns for those who are sorry they were not adventurous.
Cash only, not the greatest English spoken, very plain and good coffee or tea, bubble tea, iced coffee and tea and some coke products. If you gotta have some special thing there is a decent pizza place towards the southwest corner of bustleton and whatever.
6800 block of Bustleton gets my vote — don’t forget Ruby Garden
and Fook Lam Moon
it’s a cool place to explore different style restaurants.

Best bakery in the area! We ALWAYS buy their hot dog buns! They are a MUST TRY. They have very cheap prices also! The only bad thing is that they are «cash only». Besides that, I will definitely recommend this place!

Finally a Chinese bakery in the Northeast! Prices are on par with those in Chinatown and they have the standard fare, such as pineapple buns, steamed buns, and custard tarts, as well as bubble tea. They also offer rice/​chow fun and main plates, which are just okay. The staff are very friendly though and it seems to be a neighborhood bakery where the customers are regulars. A good option if you need your baked goods fix and don’t want to travel to Chinatown.

Ok I’ve never been a fan of Kc’s Pastries, the one in Chinatown. This one is located in the Northeast and isnt that good. Breads have no taste, they are not sweet enough. Egg tarts aren’t good at all. Bubble tea? They have a version of it, but I would call it bubble tea, the tapioca pearls in bubble tea should be chewy and not be melted globs of goo.
Happy Eatings!

Cheap tasty bread

I love all the pastries, especially the egg tarts. Bubble tea is good. And they let you bring outside food to eat in as along as you purchase something.

Okay, this is very important: THIS PLACE IS NO LONGER A PASTRY SHOP.
That’s right, the owners essentially turned the place into a restaurant. It still has pastries in the morning but it can no longer really be classified as a pastry shop. That said, this is a review of its dinner as of this month — though I would give their pastries as of last month 3 stars as well. They’ve been doing barbeque and lunch takeouts for a while but the full blown fancy tables and dinner thing is new.
Anyway, when I went there they don’t have menus printed yet. So if you can’t read Chinese? You’re screwed. Actually, even if you can read Chinese you’re screwed as the only thing resembling a «menu» in this place were two posterboards with Chinese dish names and prices written on them in ornate calligraphy — that’s my polite way of saying undecipherable chickenscratch. Our party managed to decipher 90% of it. We’re sure that one of the last dishes was a poultry dish of some sort but we couldn’t figure out what animal it was supposed to be.
The good thing is that the actual menu isn’t limited to these 13 items on the wall, as the chef will pretty much cook anything that you can find in a standard Chinese restaurant. We had three casseroles: lamb with dried bean curds, fish head, and beef satay, all from menus on the wall. They were pretty good, though nothing spectacular. It’s of note that they are in Northeast Philadelphia and they actually serve these dishes and manage do a reasonable job with them.
One of these days I may visit them for breakfast and see how it is, because it seems like they have a very interesting (Chinese only, of course) breakfast menu that includes frog porridge. They also serve lobster for breakfast, which I believe makes them quite unique.

Really enjoy the BBQ pork buns and smoothies (bubble tea is good but not my thing). Good stuff and cheap! Friendly people.

Bubble Teas are very good. The Pastries are yummy too!!! Great little taste of China Town in a different area of the city. Great little place!!!

Asian pastry. i like them!

Great local place to get delicious bubble tea. But the pastries are not the best i had.

decent bubble tea outside of Philly’s Chinatown.
great addition to the northeast side of town.

There are only 2 things I like from a Asian bakery they are 1– Egg Tart 2-​bubble pearl ice tea … I really enjoyed the bubble ice tea … they have that special machine that seals on the lid on your drink. soo neat… but the egg tart was unusual… it’s not made with the flaky crust that I was expecting… So I give you 4 stars for the bubble tea but one star for the egg tart
