Has lots to choose from. They have more of a Mexican influence but they can make many types of pastries. Came here in the morning and got stuff that was freshly baked. It's kind of a small place that has a counter. They take a lot of custom orders. A popular place around here to get cakes. Popular whether for things like birthdays or weddings, they'll make it for you. A lot of amazing examples. They also have a lot simpler items like breads and cookies you can just pop in and get. It's about $6 to get a big loaf that's freshly baked. The pastries include cannoli and other classics as well as classic Mexican ones like panaderia and that kind of stuff. Great stuff especially when it's fresh. It's closed Sundays. This is among the several bakeries on Western.

Bread is delicious and the service is friendly. I would go back in a heartbeat. Excellent pastries…read moreand fresh French loaves!

We went today, I've been so curious as to how I would like them made with oatmeal instead of flour…read more I must say I REALLY liked them, they have 11 cookies to choose from. They were out of the red velvet and I don't eat raisins so those 2 I can't speak on. Let me speak on the ones I did get Turtle, MY FAVE! Omg lemon crumb, DELISH Strawberry crumble, DELISH Caramel cookies-n-cream, Yummy Chocolate chunk, Yummy Cookies-n-cream drizzle, yummy Chocolate chunk, yummy Peanut butter, not what I was hoping for. I think for me they had a bit too much peanut butter flavor to them. And I LOVE peanut butter. Would I come back? Yes on my next visit back home I'm coming thru! My only drawback is they're all cold and I don't like cold desserts but I plan to warm them as I go.

Even though there's not much vegan or even vegetarian friendly, it can make for some good stuff at an event. They also have cheap prices. Came in while checking out other things around here. It's a small place. There's the entrance and then the counter is almost there. I chose a few of these pineapple empanadas. It's $0.59 each if you can believe it. They have a few of these so called dessert empanadas if you're looking for something interesting, or put in a custom order. Happy to report my guests liked these empanadas. It seems they would like more. Then I told them where to get these.

The Churros were very good, warm and fresh. The sundae....meh. Just a bunch of okay ice cream with some whipped cream on top.

I got the donuts, but the kitchen was allegedly closed because the person doing a cooking was leaving early, however I overheard her on the phone asking someone, I think a relative or a friend, " did they want fries too?" When I commented aloud, "I thought the kitchen was closed," Iwas totally ignored. Also, I believe the gentleman who graciously served me the donuts told her to wait until I leave to cook something, as I saw her look back in my direction. There's nothing wrong with people having to leave early but either you are you aren't if you're willing to do something for a friend or a relative you should just as well be able to accommodate a couple of customers who are the reason you're Employed BULLSHIT BUT TYPICAL FOR SOME PEOPLE.
