ABC Bakery & Cafe: The Proud Vietnamese Bakery

Originally a small family-sized bakery opened in 1989, ABC Bakery has grown rapidly to be a leader in its industry. Not only is this place a popular bakery brand that you can find in most cities, but ABC also offers a variety of products to satisfy your taste buds. Apart from the affordable prices, the quality is consistently stable even after many years of operation. And if you need a cup of coffee to sip alongside your pastries, just head to the coffee counter.

There are six main kinds of ABC products: bread, pastries, sliced cakes, whole cakes, packaged, and seasonal. You can literally find everything here from the common baguette, sandwich, muffin, and birthday cake to the special Sausage Danish, Choux Cream, Europe Butter Bread, and Soft Bread with ten different fillings. You may not know this yet, but ABC is a regular supplier of Tour Les Jours pastry chain, McDonald’s, Burger King, and Domino Pizza. If you’re munching on a hamburger, now you know where the bun came from!

Cakes are also available here, so when you want to celebrate a birthday party, you know where to go.
