The best in the city, by far, for pan dulce!! The best tres leches ever!! If u have never been....it's a must, Ben going there for 15+ years.

Treated myself to the heavenly desserts of this shop this morning and WOW! Everything from cupcakes to pastries was simply to die for. Do visit this place If you haven't been yet, thank you!!!!

I think they have the most wonderful macaroons! They also have good pecan sandies and the guava coconut cake balls are delicious. It's fun to walk around with the big tongs and try something new.

Next time you're picking up pan dulce, grab a few killer pickled jalapeños and cream cheese and fruit-filled kolache, too. Read more

My favorite bakery EVER. They have Abuelita hot chocolate on tap. Unbelievable! Every time I come here, I'm reminded of the motherland (except for the fact that this place is really really nice)

Tons of great Mexican breads & pastries. But beware parking is constantly scarce. Then again that's a sign of how good it is.

El Bolillo has quite a variety of Mexican pastries. They, hands down, make BEST strawberry Tres Leches cake! Also, try the churros!

Such a dangerous place to be let lose with a huge tray and tongs!! But you can't beat the 20c bread rolls!

Try the Arroz con Leche Empanadas and the Spiced Abuelita chocolate drink. Both are outstanding!

2cakes ive bought from glass display have been super dry white cake instead of tresleches. Manager assistant failed to offer any resolution.They failed in the cake department & customer service.
