Update Dec 21 2021 - You can now go inside, get a tray, and pick out your own bread. They did a really nice job putting up an enclosure so the cashier has to buzz you in depending on how busy it is. They get +1 star. Update Dec 2021 - Conchitas were good this time around, fresh and warm. They are now .40 cents each and you don't have to buy them pre-packaged, you can buy single ones. The bread selection was disappointing this time, and this was a weekday before 7pm so I'm not sure what the deal is. update: Nov 2020 - they sell Conchita that are couple days old... One day old I can maybe understand but these were more hard and most likely 2 or more days old. To management: Please don't sell old conchitas, and if you do, at least let the customer know and then they can decide whether they want them. Update: 6/2020 Due to covid regulations, they only allow one customer at a time, you can't pick out your own bread, instead you order what you want with the cashier. Also, their famous Conchitas are now 50 cents each and are sold pre-packaged. So if you just want to buy $1 or $2 worth of Conchitas don't bother, the least you can buy is a $5 container. No longer can you get them warm fresh off the oven. they got the best mini conchas in LA, and their rosca de reyes is also really really good.. my advice order a couple days before to avoid long lines.

Depending on the time of day you arrive it can be extremely busy or empty. Parking can become an obstacle course as well. As you enter the bakery ring the doorbell and the cashier's will buzz you in. The tray and tongs are immediately on the right. Walk towards the bread and choose to your liking. Credit/Debit cards are accepted. Fifty cents charge to use the credit card. This bakery is famous for the conchitas (mini conch bread). Two flavors to choose vanilla or chocolate. They also carry an assortment of different breads. The law of the land in this bakery is usually the carts sitting in the open is fresh bread that has been just taken out of the oven. The bread sitting in the windows are perhaps a day or two to earlier that day from the oven. They also have bolillos (French bread). Cakes can be seen sitting the fridge. Last minute milk? They have it as well. Lots of changes have occurred.

BE CAREFUL! If you don't eat foods with pork (or if youre kosher) DO NOT buy bread here. I had my charola full of bread, and then asked the panadero if they add lard to their bread and he came back and said ALL bread including the bolillos have "Manteca de puerco", unfortunately we had to purchase the bread we got in our charola because its their policy that you can't put it back. You're bread is good but deberían tener un anuncio para la gente que no come puerco.

My favorite panaderia, I swing by every time I'm in Boyle Heights. They have a huge selection and some things rotate. I especially like the bread with harden sugar topping. I love their elephant ears as it's crispy, buttery, crunchy, flakey and a hint of sweet. Cookies are yummy. Everything I've had is incredible, just depends what you want. If you pay with credit card they currently charge 60 cents, so bring cash when you can.

I've been coming to this Bakery for a long time. The bread variety is fantastic and the best part is that the quality of the bread hasn't changed in the past 15 years. The price has gone up but everything has gone up in 15 years. The "Mini Conchitas" are amazing!!! They taste much better when you eat them hot. In the afternoon, they start coming out (warm) around 4 PM.

The bread is okay. The cashier's attitude with female clients is BAD. Now if it's a guy, the attitude changes right away. I have had my bread tossed in the bags while with guys they are super friendly. El pan esta bien. Las cajeras son muy amargadas y groseras con las mujeres pero a los hombres hasta su número de teléfono les dan. FACT....

The only place I know that charges for a pink box for your bread. At 3 for a $1.00, their small breads are overpriced and not fresh. There was a time that you could get 7 for $1.00 fresh out of the oven, warm. Bread is cold, hard and not fresh now. They should take bake small batches throughout the day. Very dissapointed..

Delicious traditional style panaderia. The prices were nuts- I felt like I was watching them get robbed- every customer I saw (5-7 in 10 mins) had a giant box full and they paid less than $10 everytime! They have all your favorites and even something french for your uppity cousins who don't like pan anymore. Venganse!

Great flavor great variety!!! Great flavor of bread !!! I really don't like the customer service unfortunately and that why I'm not giving a 5 star !!! Not everything is perfect in life so if you are really looking for a great traditional Mexican bread here is your place !!! …

It used to be the best bread ever tasted in town. Since the pandemic started till now. They have increased the price. The small conchitas were place in a plastic lids will charge you 5 dollars for only 6. Before they used to sell them 3 for 1 dollar. Another thing is they have variety since the pandemic.

This place definitely deserves a 5 star but the reason why I am not rating it 5 stars is because of the rude staff , the 2 ladies at the cashier are very rude and un helpful! I always think maybe if you dont like your position, look elsewhere , stop spreading negative vibes.

I've been coming here for 10 years, now look I live in Long Beach but I come here confidently every month for my bread, simply because the bakery has some of the best bread your tongue will ever lay on. With that said, I firmly urge you to try the best LA has to offer!

Recommend. A heck of a place. The specialty are the mini "conchas". Soft , Airy and delicious. We drove an hour to hit a few spots. This was the best. A tiny place so when you see a treat get it. You will end up at the register. I spent $20 , two grocery bags worth.

Two starts and it's not about the bread!!!the bread it's delicious, the small conchitas are the best! But the customer service here is the worse, I got there on a really busy morning the line was all the way to the entrance and the cashier taking her sweet as time

Love coming here for the fresh hot conchitas. All there pan dulce is good.

Flies in the pastry cabinets. Poor service, never stocked with all pastries. To top that they sell tortas but ran out super quick within an hour and do not restock them, also they will give you attitude if you ask questions! You lost another customer!

Loved this place since I was a youngster but since recipes and prices have changed it’s gone downhill! Especially the customer service unfortunately you get looked up like if you’re going to steal something when there’s no one in the store!! …

The bread here is good but the bread is very over priced. Also the bread on the racks don't even have the prices on them. I went in 3 times and bought the same amount of bread and was charged different each time. They need to put prices on

Although I love their bread, I was surprised by seen a roach going around the bread..I told and they ignore me, people just skip that shelf, I guess they are used to them..shame on them made feel nauseous...just left the store

Conchitas are the best and los cuernitos con cajeta are delicious cash only though (i dont mind splurging here since prices are going up ,as long as quality doesnt get lost the price is worth it) …

I'm usually take it or leave it w/Mexican pastries but I like this bakery and it's the exception for me. Very good bread. I also enjoy the mini conchas & cookies. I also like the donuts when they have them.

I woke up early after I was told to be there early for the Rosca by the same people who work here, But instead a Lady gave us the run around & no bread. Horrible customer service. Don't waste your time

BEST BREAD EVER! Fresh, bite sized pieces of heavenly bliss! It bites living in a new city where there's nothing like what this place produces, but I'm so willing to travel 30+miles, just for it

The best bread ever My favor are the Conchita they are the best and the bolillos are so good soft and fresh been going to the place for over 20 years and my husband for over 40 years the best

Although I did have a bad experience with one of their cashiers who was being really rude, I think I'll come back. The bread with the seeds on top is really good n as of today, my favorite.

Absolutely tha best,love the conchitas!!...been a customer since child hood. My parents used to take my brothers and i there for their conchitas and now i will take my daughter there.

What time does it close its 620 and I got here and there doors are closed and tried calling but no answer? I really was looking forward to some conchas....it's been a while

The bread is always fresh and delicious. Sometimes there could be long lines out the door. I ordered Champurrado and they ran out so they gave me the last of what they had.

Very rude service. Do not pick up phone and are told different wait times for bread to be ready. Seem to not care about customer service since they have the customer base.

The customer service is the worst ever... if they would be rated by their service, they would be out of business a long time ago..... worst customer service ever …

The BEST Sweet or any bread! This has been my childhood bakery and it still taste the same...delicious! Friendly staff and I drove 30min just for that bread...so good!

A friend told me about this place and sweet baby Jesus their bread is I recommend getting there when they open up because when is piping fresh, it's that good …

he prices were nuts- I felt like I was watching them get robbed- every customer I saw (5-7 in 10 mins) had a giant box full and they paid less than $10 everytime!

Waited about an hour on Christmas for some bolillo just to arrive home and discover after taking a few bites that there was black mold on my bolillo.

The best bolillos!! In the world! And the meat filled empanadas are BOMB! I think the conchas are YUMMY too! The lady was very very very nice!!!!!!

This is the best Mexican bakery in the US. Freshly made bread you can see them kneed the bread. I had the fresh cochita and ginger bread maranito.

I been going for 20 yrs and the reason is my wife is from east Los Angeles and i am from the coachell valley and she took me their and I love it.

Very courteous. Only 1 person at a time in bakery. Arm yourself with patience but worth it. Their pan de muerto is to "die" for …

Bread is awesome. But unfortunately the customer service is not the same as the bread. Very rude people at the cashier and very unprofessional.

They need a bigger place or more functional layout, just saying. But more importantly, the bread is delish, we've been coming here for decades!

Delicious Conchitas! The best on my opinion. THE BOLILLO PERFECTION. I live in AZ and always make it a point to stop here,When i visit!

Best conchitas in Los Angeles. Very helpful and kind workers. Been a family favorite for multiple generations and for friends too.

Very disappointed, I bought bread last night And this morning I cutt one in half and it had mole in it, disgusting

My card was used there I never heard of them before so I called and they hang up on me . Looks kinda suspicious

Not the same, bread is cold. I guess management needs to get it together but since this is the only bakery near

Just giving 3 stars because they didn't have much of variety today. Otherwise best in LA for yummy pan dulce.

The bakery of my childhood. I grew up coming to this location and it's my favorite location for sweet bread.

Excellent bread but the cashiers need to fix their attitude and be more professional with the clients

Have no sense of humanity, one can be fainting and they won’t help you, but their bred is delicious.

Rude unorganized and dont seem to care how long ones been waiting and give you different wait times

The best mini conchas in town i just don't like that they throw them in a plastic bag and bye! Rude

PLENTY AND VARIETY OF BREAD TO CHOOSE FROM.. THE PERSONNEL IS SO NICE AND THE PRICES ARE RIGHT..

cashier dropped ma bolillo on da floor n still gave it 2 me absolutely disgustin n unacceptable

Some of the best tasting bread I have had. Still stop by when going home to the inland impire

I been coming here for almost 20 yrs I live in the coachella valley and it's still the best.

The quality of bread in this place has dipped. It's still decent if you get a fresh batch.

Awesome bread. Always fresh and yummy. Never miss the opportunity to stop by for a visit!

They closed before 9 & let other people in to get bread but locked the door after them.

Great tasting mexican bread, I really love that they have the miniature size of bread.

The bread variety is good, costumer service should improve, the best conchitas.

Best Mexican Pan Dulce in Southern California...... I'm not exaggerating …

bread is always made several times a day. always great! very reasonable price.

The cashier was fast, pleasant and helpful. Their pan birote was delicious!

They have the best Conchas anywhere! They are always fresh and perfect.

Love the bread but they need to improve their customer service skills.
