Their cheapest item goes for just $2.20, for a piece of their Sourdough Egg Tart. These freshly baked egg tarts have been highly raved about online for their buttery crust and smooth custard centre.

You’ll also find the usual suspects of Croissant ($3.80) and Kouign-Amann ($3.50) on the menu, alongside trendy bakes such as Shio Pan ($2.50) and Crookier ($4.50): a spin on the croissant-cookie hybrid. Most of the pastries are under $5, which is really reasonable in this economy.
