Great little place for Gua Bao! Although I'm usually more fond of the braised pork, I definitely recommend the chicken! Full of flavour with a little bit of spice, so good! We will definitely be back the next time we're in Melbourne!
Thank you so much Richie for your hospitality on our second visit. It was so much more than I had expected and we will definitely be back as it’s now a family favourite. My children and I loved the green tea bao but so far I havnt found one thing I don’t like on the menu!

Wonderbao is a bit of a Melbourne institution. With the ongoing seemingly never ending restrictions, thank the bao gods that Wonderbao delivers! I received a pack of these frozen pork buns from my sister and I could not wait to try them.
Having used to visit their store (near RMIT) after work, it really was a bit of a novelty to be able to warm these buns of joy in the comfort of my home. The soft pillowy bao was delicious and the char siu filling was top notch. The flavours were beautiful and clean.
I wonder when I will be able to once again wander into Wonderbao in the city....hopefully not long now!

Looking for Wonderbao is like going on a treasure hunt. It's not easy to find (especially with all that train station construction going on) but it's certainly well worth the hunt.
I had the crispy chicken guabao today. The bun itself was amazingly soft and fluffy. It was like eating a cloud. The chicken had a nice crispy coating and the coleslaw on top was slightly gluggy but otherwise fresh and tasty. Service was quick but there was very little seating for customers.

I absolutely love Wonderbao! It's hard not to get one of their juicy baos whenever I pass by :) Grabbed Braised Pork Belly Gua Bao & Fried Chicken Gua Bao. Bao buns were soft and fluffy and full of delicious fillings! Loved braised pork - juicy inside and crunchy outside with crushed nuts. Fried chicken blew me away as well - super crispy with right amount of seasoning and sauce :) Highly recommend this joint!
The buns are always super fluffy and the food is ready in a short time!
Food has always been great! Quick snack!
I love the vegetarian bao but I wish they had a bigger version of it!!
Delicious snack but long wait during lunch. They need to stop doing Deliveroo/Ubereats during lunch time as it holds up everyone physically there. I’ve been there when they have been trying to meet massive delivery orders. Or have more staff.
Excellent bao! The steamed bun was super soft and delicious, and the fried chicken was crispy and juicy. No complaints except for the price at QVM - $15 for 2 bao is pretty steep.
Fried chicken bao: 8.5/10
This is a small hole in the wall restaurant on a'Beckett st. They have some bar stools, but not a place you can really sit and eat. I ordered the chicken bao and roast pork belly bao, but any bao you buy will be delicious. The popcorn chicken is also a must-try! Will come here again!
Wonderbao at Summer Night Market. Good food and company makes life a little bit more satisfying. Nothing could go wrong with a perfectly made Gua bao.
A bite sized treats with a section of toppings and flavours. From chicken to pork and your vegetarian options.
Popping by the night market? Be sure to give the baos and bite. I rate it.
Love a good bao. We ordered the crispy chicken (delicious), bbq pork (give me more) and tofu (not our vibe). 2 out of 3 stars! The 2 we loved were full of flavour, fresh and had a good ratio of meat, bun, toppings. Wonderbao is always a popular choice.
