Wonderful bakery! Great selection of cakes for any occasion. Will add writing to cakes. Great breads, buns etc. They have puff pastry with chicken or pork but they're incredibly greasy. Friendly staff. Reasonably priced.

The Story
About This Place
GẤU Bakery opens at 6 AM every day of the week, making it one of the earlier pastry stops in District 2 for those who want something freshly baked before the neighborhood gets moving. The 72% dark chocolate brownie — dense, built around quality cacao, finished with a nutty edge — is one of the bakery's steadiest sellers, and a cream cheese variant layers a tangy top over the same rich base. The Choco Lava Cookie draws the most repeat orders: an 80-gram round with a soft chocolate shell that breaks open to a smooth, molten center.
The menu mixes European technique with local reference. Traditional Banh Mi Chuoi (Vietnamese fried banana cake) sits alongside financiers, heart-shaped tiramisu, and fruit tarts built on a crispy base with seasonal produce and light cream. The French Butter Cake is noted for its restrained spice and mild crispness — distinct from the sweeter items that dominate the display case. A sesame tile cake and coffee cookie round out the more textural end of the menu. The matcha cookie line recently underwent a reformulation using richer Japanese matcha, signaling ongoing recipe development.
For special occasions, GẤU Bakery takes custom cake orders through Zalo, with staff who walk customers through specifications. A 5.0 score across 191 Google reviews is a figure rarely maintained at that volume, and the regulars who drive that number cite friendly service and pricing that doesn't track upward with ambition. The space appears compact and carry-out focused, without the design investment of more prominent Thao Dien competitors. What it lacks in atmosphere it compensates for in consistency — particularly for the brownie and cookie formats that have become the bakery's identity.

i ordered a custom made cake through the app zalo. they helped me explained everything i need and it was great. also ordered 2 sandwiches but they ended up giving me old bread from yesterday. quite disappointed but the manager called me to apologise after eating the cake, super disappointed. i asked for coated chocolate cake but instead it's just whipped cream?! whats the point of custom cake and paying extra for it. and the person who reply me on zalo ignore that message. DUH is it obvious they're trying to ditch customers. maybe other chains but not this ABC BAKERY AT D2 !!!
Your bread is really really good, we hope there's a branch here in thao dien district 2
It's a good service with very good products..
good services and many kinds of cakes
