Xinqiao Sapporo Bakery

Established in the mid-80s, Xinqiao Sapporo Bakery is the first bakery open to customers’ orders. It has become the most famous bakery in Beijing.

The shop stands right next to the northwest exit of the Chongwenmen subway station. You can miss the aroma of cream and flour, and the line of customers choosing their favorite bread. All bread served is sold fresh out of the oven. A croissant is priced at RMB 2.40, a hot dog with tomato sauce RMB 4.50, and a Danish pastry with raisin RMB 4.90.

Customers can also order birthday cakes. Prices are reasonable: for example, a butter cake (23cm/1260g) costs RMB 80; a yoghurt mousse cake (19cm/1050g), RMB 138; a chocolate cake (19cm/1000g), RMB 148.
