First off, the pan is all delicious! On top of that their commitment to the community that they are creating within their business is truly admirable. The transparency in the language on the tipping sign is truly beautiful. On top of that they source the highest quality ingredients. I hope this place can stay here forever. I can't forget to mention the amazing service from everyone on the team x The chocolate form Hijita is the best read more

The staff were kind and seemed efficient; there was a bit of a line and they brought out shot size glasses of tea. The options are limited. I tried the cornflour alfajor, papa ranchera & cheese empanada, and mesquite pecan polvoron. I liked the empanada (the green sauce was very spicy!). I wasn't a fan of the alfajor or polvoron; they were dry and hard to eat without a drink as well. I also tried a chocolate drink/infusion. I think it was one with the flower flavor. It was ok and I liked it better than the pastries. I don't think this place is alone in this, especially in Austin, but I do think they were too expensive for what they are. The owner has addressed this directly and acknowledged the higher cost. It does price it out of my bracket for regular consumption. And, that's not a them problem that's a me thing. read more

The best concha I have ever eaten. It's probably best I don't live near this place as my waistband (and my wallet) would be hurting. I love what they're all about and everything I've tried so far has been stellar! read more

From the seasonal TX peach shiso croissant to the vainilla concha, it was just fantastic. The breakfast taco was yummy and tasted like home. I will say to get there early or order ahead because they run out fairly fast. read more

OH. MY. GOD. The hype is real! I don't know why I didn't come sooner! The flavors are incredible, the bread is FRESH! My entire mexican family LOVED every piece! We finished the box in a day! Can't wait to go back, I love that they have a rotating menu so they are always coming up with new flavors ! The matcha chocolate concha was my favorite and OMG the puerquito was to die for! My son ate two of them! Staff is super friendly too! Love this place, I'm so happy they are here in ATX! And omg their pink sponge cake !!!! Best one I have ever had !!! Hands down !!! I also had their breakfast empanada and WOW! You can tell the food here is baked with love because everything tastes so good!!! read more

Been meaning to visit Comadre for a long time and I'm so happy for Mariela and the crew for their thriving panadería. Despite east Austin continually changing, it is great to have a local community panadería serving up freshly baked pan y pasteles para la gente. The selection changes every weekend but the day i went i was fortunate enough to grab the tamarind maple bar simply incredible, the Mexican hot chocolate concha tasted like home and the mole croissant was like nothing I've had before. Will be back read more

Oh. My. Goodness. This place is AMAZING!! I'm so thankful I glanced at the James Beard nominee list before this trip and added this place to my list, because it was AMAZING!!! I pre-ordered for Sunday pickup since I wasn't sure what the wait would be like, but around 10am there were only 5 people in front of me (there is also a small parking lot and plenty of street parking)! The storefront is so cute and the employees are so friendly!! This was literally the best concha I've ever had in my entire life - the flavor and texture of the dough was perfection and the chocolate components were the perfect amount of sweetness! This will be what I dream of and the new bar for conchas! My other treats were also amazing - I LOVED the flavor of the mole with butternut squash in the special croissant (I think it had a great balance for the pastry, but I could eat a bowlful of just the mole sauce/would've paid extra for a side of it)! Finally, the seemingly fan favorite pink cake was also delicious - the sweetness of the corn and the creaminess of the frosting complimented each other perfectly and it wasn't overly sweet! Overall, this place is amazing, SO worth the hype, and will be my first stop next time I make it down to Austin! I highly recommend this place and don't think there could be a "bad" item on the menu! read more

Oh my GOODNESS!! They were just nominated for a James Beard so I had to check the hype. BELIEVE THE HYPE MI GENTE. EL PAN ES EXCELENTE So unique and quite clean. They use local ingredients to Texas and made these treats in a manner that are galaxies away from any other panaderia in town. I'm so grateful this is an option in Austin. Don't wait to try, run to try Comadres!!! read more

We came on what had been a busy day, so I guess they were sold out of a few items. They had 3 things left, one being their "pink cake". Looking at it, it wasn't something I would typically just pick out. However, they mentioned it was a top-seller and a favorite, so we gave it a try. Man am I happy we did! We ended up taking 1 of each of those remaining items. My husband and I sincerely enjoyed all 3 items. We had heard about the place because of the attention they received from James Beard so we knew it was likely to be great, but it was still such a nice surprise with how delicious each thing was. I think this spot is somewhere you go if you are looking for something unique...a place that honors tradition & culture & pays attention to all the right things. If you are looking for chocolate chip cookies, brownies & cupcakes, this may not be the place for you. To describe all 3 items the best I can, I will say this: The texture on all 3 items were different than anything I would have expected...& I am so happy they were! The texture of the cake was almost like a tres leches meets cornbread. I love that it had icing but nothing was too sweet. It was balanced so perfectly. Honestly, all 3 items were phenomenal for different reasons & we would highly recommend them all. Kind of hoping we can do another visit before heading out of town! Side notes: It is in the building right next to Nixta in case they are also on your list of places to visit. They literally share a lot. Comadre Panaderia also serves coffee & other drinks. We got the horchata with espresso & it was delightful! We will be trying their drinking chocolates next time. read more

We now preorder to make sure we can secure the goods read more

I made it my business to try this bakery, and I was VERY glad I did! A good friend and I have been on a Pastry Tour since 2020, mostly in Ann Arbor, and this was by far the BEST of the BEST. The shop was very cute, the staff were warm and welcoming, and I swear if I lived in Austin I would go there every single week. We did not get to the savory items, but everything I tried was fresh, delicious, and amazing. If you have a mouth, go there and eat the pastries! read more

Came to try their sweets and it did not disappoint. I'm gluten free and I enjoyed their gluten free sweets. My family who isn't gluten free enjoyed them as well. They also had their conchas and they liked them as well. I got the Pink cake, mesquite pecan polvoron, heirloom masa sugar cookie and cornflour alfajor. They were all so yummy. My favorite was the masa sugar cookie. read more

Divine! Artisan pan Dulce made with the highest quality ingredients. I'm in heaven every time we go here! The service is great and they have expanded the availability so much since their pop-up days. They recently started offering custom cake orders so we're getting two small bride and groom cakes to cut at our wedding I'm so excited! This is one of my tip top places to spoil my friends and out of town guests. It's impossible to pick a must try recommendation because offerings change each week and we have loved everything! They recently moved things around inside and now have a few barstools at the counter where you can sip their lovely coffees. That cafe de olla is incredible! Also the hijita cacao drinks are musts! My personal favorite is cacao & snow jasmine milk tea. It is so soothing and refreshing! Just a perfect flavor pairing that reminds me of the feeling of inhaling crisp, cool conditioned air on a hot day. My body just loves it! read more

this a popup bakery. I ordered online on tuesday for saturday pixkup at Nixta Taqueria. Such care and love can be tasted in every item. The best flour tortillas in Austin. They smell incredible, soft, chewy, perfect! worth the trouble to prebook. Only issue was the empanada supposed to be with eggs and cheese plant based chorizo but was no eggs or cheese was inside. It was still delicious and flaky but not what I expected for a breakfast empanada read more

I love this place and want to go back. The owner and baker is very passionate about what she does and isn't afraid to play with flavor, while sourcing what's available/in season. Everything I tried was great with my favorites being the atole sugar cookie and bean and cheese croissant. It's a little pricier than your typical panaderia because of ingredient sourcing and labor, and honestly it's elevated pan. I would highly recommend giving them a try! The menu changes every week with a few pastries being in the weekly rotation, so there's always something new to try! read more

I think the bakery items meet the hype of visual aesthetic but the flavor was missing. We had the classic chocolate concha, sourdough Choco chip, horchata polvoron, potett strawberry cake, lemon chia galleta, yaupon Jamaica concha, pecan sticker bun and pinguino. Of all the bakery items non were enough for us to personally order again. I did enjoy the process to order and wanted to support as they are local. The items are very niche in flavor and I think the unique aspect drove me to try them. I unfortunately didn't find anything extraordinary enough to recommend. I can say everything was fresh, everyone was friendly when I went to pick up my order. Parking is fairly open as well during pickup times. read more

Staff, seating area around back, the self help area and the works of love they create are astounding to me. Fantastic. Pink cake is moist and delicious corn cake with a pink buttercream. We had mole butternut squash puff pastry, loved it. Crunchy spicy savory and a little sweet. Pickled vegetable focaccia... perfect. Taupon tea and fig leaf syrup as the Horchata was sold out when we went. I had heard about this place last year in a blog i read. I was so happy to make it here coming from NY. A handshake and a hearty thanks to the integrity of what you create there. I was so happy for the experience. read more

Amazing little gem. You could taste the flavor in every bite. Sure to go back and hope they open more days soon! read more

After first seeing this spot featured in a Claire Saffitz YouTube & then by a trusted Austin food blogger, I was dying to try some really unique pastries. Austin had some great traditional bakeries of all sorts but I've truly never tasted items like this before. The cookies are insanely good-- the perfect blend of savory & sweet. The concha is so delicate & not at all dry. The corn croissant is unlike anything I've tried & wow I can't wait to come back. The women working there were also incredibly friendly! read more

Decided to try this place after seeing good reviews about it online. Sadly, did not live up to expectations. The pastries were too sweet for my taste, heavy on some type of syrup or honey, the only decent one was the pink cake. Cafe de olla was not good, it was very bitter from the spices they add on, could not get through the taste I poured it out. There is better, authentic conchas and pastries at other Austin bakeries, for cheaper prices as well. Although, after reading other reviews, I am happy that a local spot does get a lot of support. But, if your looking for some authentic Mexican pastries, this is not a spot I would recommend. read more

Honestly can't believe there's a 3 star rating for this place. This was a real gem. Best concha I've ever had and whatever the donut I had was the probably the best donut of my life. Really friendly staff and cozy Mexican vibe as well. read more

Comadre's conchas make it seem like every other panaderia is just phoning it in. Better still is the "pink cake," sweet corn pudding topped with buttercream lightly flavored with prickly pear and dotted with rainbow sprinkles. A sweet (zucchini?) bread topped with slightly jammy blueberries and set off with something herbal (tarragon maybe?) was gone too fast for me to puzzle out its ingenious combination of ingredients. What a spot! read more

I have enjoyed coming to Comadre a lot recently. They have delicious pastries and treats. They have a cute, little space off of 12st on the east side. Their treats are always great and a fun variety! read more

Saw a video recommending the pink cake so some friends and I went to try it out and it was definitely worth it! The pink cake is soooo delicious along with the variety of other pastries we tried out. Parking is a bit tough, but they have a cute outdoor area to sit and the staff is super kind. Definitely recommend read more

If you're like me you probably saw this on social media and decided to try it. First off, the food is okay/good. The concha is really good. The price point? Not so much. This is Austin's hipster version of a Mexican bakery. You can get Trays filled of baked goods that taste similar, if not better than this place at plenty other Mexican bakeries in Austin. I honestly don't understand the hype/ lines.. it's just an average Panaderia. And just to clarify, I am not one of those folks that are like, "oh my city or country does it better, so I don't like this". I'm not from a TX city and I'm not even Hispanic. read more

Honestly the best concha's I've had! The bean and cheese empanadas are so good too! 10/10

Over-rated and over-priced. $5 for a pastry is ridiculous. Terrible seating area as well.

I stumbled upon this delicious bakery on a Sunday. They only had three selections left so I got one of each: pink cake, a corn, sugar, cookie was cinnamon, and a salted chocolate chip cookie. All three were fantastic. The sugar cookie was almost like a Mexican snickerdoodle. Both cookies were made with masa and neither were too sweet. The cake was a real surprise. Moyston again not too sweet. I would highly recommend placing your order on Wednesday and picking it up on the weekend. They're only open on the weekend. I lucked out! read more

Pastries worth the hype. Came in wanting the cakes and alfajores, but glad they were sold out so I could try the cookie and conchas

I have tried a few things in the menu, all of which are great, but the pink cake is by far my absolute favorite. Let me be clear, I don't care for cake. But the combination of the cake and the frosting are so unique and flavorful, making this the only cake I can't pass up. Trust me. read more

Loved trying these beautiful desserts -- the pink cake was BRILLIANT, the masa sugar cookie was delicious, and everything else we tried was delicious too. read more
