    We tried almost half the selection of buns here. All were good, especially the mushroom tart and ham and Gruyere cheese bun. Also grateful for the well-done latte. Hard to get them around these parts.

    Coffee is great, but the pastries are amazing. Definitely get something exotic. You won't regret it.Interior has a very modern industrial feel to it.

    Perfect cafe to work from. Plenty of outlets and dark wood seating, great reasonably priced coffee drinks and eats, great vibe, decent staff, open 7 days early 7a - late 3a, and board games!

    The Bun Shop is one of the best Cafes in Baltimore. Great Vietnamese Coffee and wonderful selection of puff pastries savory & sweet. I also frequent there Light St. location near Lombard. A gem.

    Chill atmosphere, kind employees and open late (3 a.m.) for us night owls. My favorites are the teas and Vietnamese coffee, though everything I've had here has been good.

    Super cute venue and very spacious. The coffee is great. My ham & gruyere wrap was good but not that filling. It needed more ham & cheese. But nonetheless I will return for sure.

    My first time here and i was not disappointed. The buns, both savory and sweet, are light and flaky. Guava flute is delish

    Excellent tea selection, but the baristas don't appear to know how to brew it properly. They get the water straight out of the espresso machine. Fine for black & herbal, but it ruins green.

    Got the Hong Kong coffee. It was a little too strong for me, but this place has a great assortment of choices beyond your regular coffee.

    Great vibe, very cozy. The pork bun was delicious, albeit a tiny bit cold on the inside.

    The aloe lemonade is pretty great if you want a cold drink that isn't coffee or tea. Can't go wrong with a latte either!

    Try curry puff! It's rich in flavor and actually spicy! Has a great vibe into this place. Huge and quiet place for a cafe

    Ask behind the counter for the vegan curry puff. As the primary reliably vegan item, they often have it, even when the case puff contains meat.

    Try the curry puff, pear & gruyère, and rotiboy. The Vietnamese coffee is great (but takes some time to make).

    Wifi, carbs, caffeine- the things needed to sustain your all-nighter. Open 'til 3, couldn't be more perfect.

    Ask what's in the Curry Puff before you order. Some days it's meat, and some days it's vegetarian.

    Avoid the red bean bun-it is grossly sweet. Better to get the savory ham and gruyere.
