Shame on me! I have only been to Fil Bake Shop twice in my lifetime. I'm a fan of Filipino baked goods, and this bakery in Delano is the closest one to my home. Unfortunately, I do not get too many opportunities to stop by. Do not let the outdated look of the parking lot and building deter you from shopping at Fil Bake Shop. Don't let the line of people stop you either. The folks working here are wonderful. They let my wife and I sample some of their goodies the first time we dropped by. Of the treats we purchased, these were my favorites. The malasadas, pan de sal, and the lady fingers were all yummy especially since they were all hot and fresh!! Even the next couple of days, they tasted good after warming them up in the microwave. So, if you live in Kern County or are just driving along Hwy 99.....stop in at Fil Bake Shop to satisfy your Filipino baked goods craving!! read more

Coming here for the first time and everyone in the shop including the Owner herself Mommy Tess were so nice and accommodating. Thank yiu so much Mommy Tess and the crew for being so nice. we will definitely come back for more pandesal and spanish bread and lady fingers! read more

Haven't been by here in years. Yes it's a home town favorite but so much has changed if you don't visit often. The lady fingers are half the size they used to be. Ube pan didn't taste like anything. The lumpia was all wrapper and no filling. For a couple dollars, it's not the end of the world but it's not the same. read more

Their breads bring me back to childhood memories all the time Especially the small ham and mayo sandwiches read more

Their bread is soooo good! Since i was a kid, we would always stop by to buy bread before a road trip! And now i do that with my kids!

The best little Filipino bakery in Delano abd neighboring cities. The pandesal rolls are smaller than regular so it is easy to eat a few. Everything made fresh on the spot! read more

Not that great. Lots of bread option, mostly bread very little substance inside. Lady fingers were decent but very little cream inside.

THE WAIT WAS WORTH IT! We got one of each donut and all of them were fantastic. I particularly liked the Matcha donut and the Oreo one. Chewy, fresh and not too sweet. Can't wait to come back and try more flavors. read more

Delicious! Love the pork buns Also, didn't know they were open until afternoons !! I was living under the myth that they closed early. Most days they're open until 2pm. The earlier the better though, as they do run out of the popular items. read more

There bread is amazing. Price is great. They have friendly servers. The building is always clean.

Hot pandesal bread, lady finger bread, rice pudding, free coffee, made to order, open @ 6am everyday. Call ahead of time,

Best Baked goods in the city of Delano! Growing up moms would always bring home some lady fingers and Pandesal in the morning before going to school. Can't go wrong paring with a cup of coffee. Would definitely recommend this place if you live in Delano and haven't gave them a try or if you're driving past Delano! read more

Love how they always give my son his own little bad of bread it makes him happy, the lady fingers are the best when they are fresh . I love this place read more

Growing up in a very small town just north of Delano I did not have much to chose from for certain things. If I wanted Taco Bell or McDonalds, I had to come to Delano. That is the same case for Fil Bake Shop. We had bakeries where I lived however it was mexican pastries and regular donuts. Fil Bake Shop is rather unique to all who live in the Delano area, matter of fact it is quite legendary. When you first arrive here do not let the looks fool you, it is in an older shop that could use a little remodel. But is that what you are doing here? No definitely not, it is their wonderfully delicious baked goods. One of their staples is Pandesol,a Filipino bread and I can remember eating these as a kid. Of course at the time I didn't realize how good they are just alone cause I would make little sandwiches with them. Or I'd eat them with eggs and sausage like I would biscuits. Another item I love probably even more than the pandesol are the Lady Fingers. Baked bread with cream cheese down the middle and sugar lightly sprinkled on it. Freaking amazing when fresh or warmed up at home. Hell, they're amazing even room temperature. Fil Bake Shop has such a variety of different baked goods, it will excite you and overwhelm you trying to choose what to buy. The variety is not huge like a Porto's but your stomach will drive you nuts with the fresh smell and goods on display. The shop is ran by a family, alot of aunties and uncles and they are super friendly. Everything is well priced, you can walk in with $5 and walk out with a few days worth of bites. They recently started selling Ube Flan Cupcakes, similar to Cafe86 in Pasadena. Now I haven't tried the ones from Cafe86 but I have tried the ones from Fil Bake Shop. Now this is where the stars drop from 5 to 4 in my review. Aesthetically they are quite beautiful but a little small for the price. Just the other day I drove up north to Delano on a whim to grab some goodies and decided to try these cupcakes out. I bought a total of 6 which was $15, do the math, $2.50 a cupcake. I have tried Ube cupcakes before and I've tried Leche Flan as my wife's family makes it here and there but I've never tried them together. In my opinion the cupcake was dry and crumbled and the Leche Flan wasn't the normal sweetness I am accustomed with. I'm not saying it is bad but it was underwhelming for me and I very rarely anticipate a dessert. Maybe I got a couple of bad cupcakes and they are usually stellar. I will give them another go but my suggestion would be to give a little more Leche Flan, balance out that ratio. I have nothing but great things to say about Fil Bake Shop, a childhood favorite and still willing to drive to buy it. Nothing within an hour of me compares, I just wish I had more Lady Fingers now.... read more

We try to drop in whenever in Delano and have been coming by for years. I had never thought of reviewing this bakery. My secret lol. Great place for fresh Filipino bread and other treats. Ladies usually will give you sample without even asking. We often buy the following: Putos- look like mini muffins. Lady fingers- some are filled with cream filling. Soft like bread, not a dry cookie. Pan de coco- little buns with sweetened coconut inside Mini buns split and filled with ham or tuna salad (think slider size) Lumpia- veggie egg roll Turon-banana wrapped and fried Esmayada- reminds me of lady finger but in a round form This is only a small amount of what they offer. Too many to name. I'd recommend to come by early. The latest we have gone is 11a so don't know their hours. read more

This bakery has been here my whole entire life and the taste has been consistent! I love the energy the staff gives when walking in. My favorite to buy recently are the ham & tuna pandesal sandwiches! If you haven't tried them, what are you waiting for?! They're amazing and the price for what we get is just as great too! read more

I go here almost every morning!! Their pastry breads are so good!! If you haven't tried this place yet now's the time!!

The best part of delano ! My home town and favorite place to visit! The Filipino bakery is so good and has always made perfect baked goods! This is a must try ! It takes me back in time when I was kid! This place has been open since I was a baby! Must try the lady fingers and ube rolls ! Recently tried the strawberry roll and it was so good! I think this bakery should expand and they should start making more Filipino baked goods! I love this place ! It's old fashioned and doesn't take credit cards but I love that the baked goods are still made by the same Lola aka- grandma! Just grateful it's still around. read more

Fil Bake Shop - The best sweet bread ever! - Bakeries Near Me - Delano, California

First time visiting. My husband found this place on our way to Yosemite. we didn't know what to order. When the staff learned that we were there for our first time, they were so generous and gave us samples. Everything was so delicious and then we bought three bags of goodies. If we end up driving through the area again in the future, it will be a must stop for us. read more

Best lady fingers, Pandesal, Ensemaydas. Your sleeping if you haven't had the Ube lady fingers. My favs. Give me Ube everything. Love this place!! read more

Great bread selections. My favorite is the sunshine bread with cream cheese and buttered and sugar on top. Oh so yummy!!!! They also have eggrolls and bbq on a stick. Very delicious. I recommend this place if you in town or passing by. read more

One of the best bakeries ever. Everything is freshly made. Love the Pandesal, lady fingers, and those hot dog things. I'm so glad they are open on Sundays so I can go there early, walk in, get what I want, and walk out and don't have to wait in line, Otherwise during the week you'll have to wait in line for a while but it's worth the wait. read more

Little hole in the wall place looks a little beat but don't let it fool you, this is the best Filipino bread I've ever had! Definitely worth the wait early in the mornings. read more

Don't get discouraged by the line coming out the door! Everyone is waiting for those fresh and hot lady fingers! Don't even think of going in front of the line to order unless you are getting the other non-famous pastries. It's not the same kind of lady fingers they make tiramisu out of. These are soft bread filled with cream cheese that look like fingers and dusted with sugar. This place is a real hole in the wall but it's damn good! read more

Been coming here since I was a kid. Would stop by on my way to school just to get me some lady fingers. People here are always friendly. Now come bye and get yourself some !! read more

Came down from Bakersfield to try the infamous Lady Fingers this shop is known for! Def worth the drive!! Staff is very friendly

Small Philippine bakery. Pastries are awesome! It was my first time visiting and buying from this business, I let the older lady know and asked what she recommended. Wasn't very helpful and was actually quite rude. Their very quick to take your money, but won't spend the time to welcome you again. Someone in line recommended lady finders and some other bum and egg rolls. Place looks run down. They could improve it, since it's well known little place in Delano. I personally will not be returning. read more

Best sweet bread in town! Can't go wrong with some lady fingers with a chocolate nesquick at 4 in the morning.

Nothing brings back childhood like warm pan de sal with peanut butter (or spam!) and coffee. My dad bought a dozen or so of this daily when I was a kid. I can taste them now and it makes me want to drive 135 miles up the 5 and the 99 to get my hands on a few more. This is the quintessential filipino pan de sal and if you've never been here to try it, you, my friend are missing out. Warm, buttery, and tender, get this deliciousness in the morning when it's warm and you won't be the same. Goldilocks ain't got nothing on this! Everyone here is so wonderful and sweet. Say hello to Auntie Tessie, the creator of this particular recipe of pan de sal. Tell her I sent ya :) You must also try their lady fingers. Sugary and buttery, the perfect comfort "donut". read more

Really good lady fingers. The pan de coco was ok, not a huge fan of coconut, but my wife liked them. Hole in the wall in Delano right off the freeway.9 read more

Best fil-bakery around! Can't beat hot & fresh pandesal! They also have siao paos and ensaymada, bitsu-bitsu... If you are driving through Bakersfield area, make sure to stop by and grab some goodies! They do close up as soon as they sell out for the day, so come early! read more

My little brother likes to eat pandesal every weekend with his breakfast. I remember going here to get pandesal since I was very little. They provide fast service so if there is a line, it goes by quickly. They always give my little brother a free sample of a cinnamon and sugar bread. He likes it! You could order as low as a dollar's worth of pandesal. The bread is made fresh daily. The downside is the parking lot. The road is uneven and people tend to park wherever so it may be hard to find parking or drive out. read more
