They have many choices of pan dulce. They are not overpriced either. They also sell cakes, tortas and more. I tried the carnitas torta and it was delightful. The lady at the front is alway nice and smiling. read more

We needed a wedding cake on a short notice. They made it and it came out beautifully and was delicious. It was 3 tiers and each tier was a different flavor. read more

This is my new tradition. Every time I visit Reno I make sure to come here on the way out. Everything is fresh and the prices are reasonable. read more

Our go to spot for asada tortas and their bakery. Everyone is super nice and the items are decently priced. An asada torta is $9 and the bakery items range from $1 and up. The bakery is small with minimal seating and appears to be more of a stop and go vs a dine in restaurant. They have a variety of cookies, cakes and bread. Everything that I've had here was great. Would recommend stopping by and picking up a few bakery items. read more

Always a good stop for pan dulce. I recently bought about 200 conchas for a work event. They were neatly packed and organized in nice trays. My coworkers loved them. read more

The VERY BEST pan dulce and other treats! Reminds me of the pan dulce I grew up eating in San Diego. This place is legit! Family owned and operated. read more

Two tacos for breakfast. They stop serving breakfast BEFORE 9 because they open at 5:30. 2 dollar tacos are a great alternative. Check out the Ellotes pastries. We get all the flavor of the round, traditional bakery bun, but without all the crumbs. The frosting is in the middle! Two tacos, a large coffee and a nice little pastry for $6.50 read more

Ummm...hello...why have I not been stocking up on pan from Esperanza's sooner. I've driven by here dozens of times but today was the first time I was compelled to stop. It's a decent size panaderia shop that has a sitting area, obviously they have pan but they also make cakes and have some food options. As soon as I walked in I was greeted and after I selected my bread she was already waiting at the counter to help check me out. I was excited to get home and place my selections on a platter for my husband to choose from. They are DELICIOUS! The bread and cookies are soft, freshly baked (even at 4pm they didnt taste like the leftovers) and the cone with whipped cream was sweet and delightful. Love that I have found a neighborhood panaderia! read more

Picked up some pan dulce early this morning before my kids and I got our day started. We love the nice warm conchas with a hot cup of coffee in the mornings. Woke up bright and early and was at the bakery by 7am. I was able to get some super fresh warm conchas. Nothing better than some Mexican bread with coffee in the morning. This is our favorite bakery for conchas and bolillos. Service is always hit or miss. read more

I've lived on the Baja south of San Felipe and one of the treats we enjoyed was stopping at our favorite panaderia every time we drove through town. I have been disappointed with most panaderias in the States. I am pretty happy with this place!!!! We trigger pineapple upside down cake, cheesecake and the large oblong flat pastry coated in sugar. I don't know the names but they were all good. All three together cost $3.90. Naturally the cheesecake is NOT like the New York version. But it's good Mexican cheesecake! I will bookmark this panaderia and return to try other cookies. They serve Tortas and bake custom cakes. Definitely worth stopping in! If you find this review useful please vote! read more

If you want fresh and authentic pan dulce this is the place to go! It's a family owned bakery and you can tell their passion for baked goods is immense. They not only sell baked goods, but they also sell delicious Mexican food. Staff is so sweet and welcoming. Definitely recommend trying this place out. read more

Never tried the baked goods but the tacos are out of this world. Especially the pastor. So flavorful and delicious tortillas. And for $2?!?? Feel like I'm in 2008 with those prices. read more

We are super picky and the bread here is great. Wish I would of come in sooner. Yes they can work on better attitudes and service but overall the bread is worth it. read more

What a fun stop on the way home. Lots of fun choices and a friendly man behind the counter. They are very yummy. I don't know the names of anything but I tried to describe them in the pics. read more

The best kept secret in Reno/Sparks is La Esperanza bakery. Every item I have tried is flaky/delicious/subtle/not to sweet. Really, really impressive pastries. I moved from the Mission of San Francisco. The palmeras, turnovers, and the "baskets" with pineapple filling are the BEST! and there isn't a single bakery there that comes close to La Esperanza. I'm eager to try their cakes, tacos, tortas and other menu items. read more

La Esperanza Bakery - The round "baskets" with pineapple filling (my favorite), apple turnover, palmeras, and mini banana bread loaf. - Bakeries Near Me - Sparks, Nevada

Always light and fluffy conchas and breads. The tortas are delicious. This is one hidden gem of a bakery.

Pastries were a little stale as I purchased on Sunday. They were probably made the day before so I'm sure I will have to go back on a Saturday to really assess the quality and freshness before I update my review. They were definitely light and airy but old on Sunday. Probably should have tried the menudo read more

By far the best panaderia I have been to here in Sparks. The bread is always fresh, soft and pillowy with just the perfect amount of sweetness. So far all I've tried from here was their pan dulce but they also have food and other things like tres leches cakes. Will have to come back to try out some of the food.. read more

After gathering 24 dollars worth of pastries, I went to pay at the cash register. The cashier was talking on the phone while helping the customer in front of me. She was clearly distracted from us customers as he kept asking for condiments. When it was my turn she rang up some items but I wasn't sure what. Then I asked for a box so she went to the corner and spent at least five minutes trying to put a box together while chatting away on the phone. I had to go outside to tell my bf why it was taking so long. I came back inside and she was still poking at the box. I finally saw another lady and asked her to ring me up because the first lady was taking so long and how ridiculous it was that she's on the phone. So that lady rings me up on top of whatever was already rung up. I didn't care what the total was, I just wanted out of there and I'm sure that I was overcharged but didn't even realize it because I was unhappy with the service. Then she said to me that the box will make the pastries dry in no time. I thanked her for helping me but she just walked away as if she was mad at me - really? I get CRAPPY service, overcharged and it's on me? NEVER GOING BACK. RUDE EMPLOYEES. read more

Very fresh pastries! I love everything I have had as far as pastries goes. The corn tamales were good too but unfortunately they were served a little cold still. They needed to have been warmed up more but the flavor was good. I didn't care for the coffee because it was too weak for my liking. Hoping to try another item soon! Overall it's been good! read more

Very friendly personal. I love the taste of their bread. They are close by my house love going there

The bread is tasty and you can definitely get a good variety for a great price. Although the bread may be delicious, I was disappointed with the deli. My boyfriend ordered 4 tacos al pastor ($1.25 each) and I ordered a torta al pastor ($5.00) with 2 jarritos ($1.25 each). The meat was too watery and very little flavor in my opinion. I will only come here for the mexican bread. read more

La Esperanza Bakery was a pleasant surprise. Their muffins, cookies, cakes and other Mexican sweets are great for that sweet tooth craving. I came here just to fulfill exactly that haha. I was also a bit hungry for lunch and didn't realize that they serviced more than sweets. They had tortas and menudo. Just note that menudo is only on Saturday and Sunday and they usually run out around 12pm. But they had other items on the menu too. They are pretty good. I would suggest to try it. I liked their tortas and I will be back to try out the other foods on the menu. But for first time visitors I would suggest trying one of their sweet pastries. The best time to get one is early in the morning because they are fresh. No need to worry about getting a parking spot they have plenty. Also the staff is nice and helped me out when I had a question. The prices for the pastries are great. The prices are fair for the pastries. The nice thing about it is you can just get one or get a dozen if you like. Usually I'll grab about 6 or a dozen. So the way you do it is when you come in you grab a tray and tongs, load up with what ever pastries you want and the cashier will bag it for you. Each pastries can range .50¢-$1.00. Really affordable prices for good pastries. And if you want just one get one. I love supporting local business like this. They do a pretty good job for a small bakery store. I will back to try their menudo and other hot food items on the menu. Thanks for reading my review. read more

My fiancé and I went in to order our wedding cake. It's not fancy nor difficult, but this is the place we wanted to come to. They care, they speak spanish, but they make you feel in charge. Anything you need done, they will do as best they can. I am looking forward to our cake in the coming weeks. Muchas Gracias, La Eperanza Bakery! read more

Cakes are very yummy, but it looks like a 3 year old designed the cake. I had always ordered from them and never have had an issue read more

Omg the 3 leches cakes here are so delicious! I use to go to el marketon but since that video of their food cases being infested I was not willing to go back. I'm so happy I found this bakery and their amazing cakes!! I recommend to anyone who's a 3 leches fan!! Delicious and very moist cakes! Reasonable pricing and they are local! Love supporting local businesses. read more

I always see countless people coming in and out of this bakery while I wait for my pet at the vet next door. I decided to give it a try this time while waiting and I almost contemplated going back in for more tacos and goodies. I fully enjoyed their carnitas tacos and their cream filled empanadas really hit the spot. Needless to say, I'll have something to look forward to now when we make our routine vet visits. read more

Best Mexican food and bakery in Sacramento I been coming here for years grandma use take me now I take my kids

The best place to order a cake from! I've been going here for a couple years now & LOVE it. They never disappoint.

I was a hunt for some Chonchas and stumbled across this place!! Great selection and friendly staff. Completely satisfied my craving!

First of all, I've never been a fan of Mexican pastries. I LOVE sweets though. My husband and I passed by this place and decided to stop in. At first glance, It looked like all the same Mexican pastries I've tried in the past, and I didn't even care to try any because of bad past experiences. My husband chose 2- a custard filled pastry and a bread pudding. I tried the bread pudding first, and I actually was impressed. Eating the edge piece was even better. I would suggest buying this and making a vanilla cream or dulce de leche sauce to top it. The custard pastry was surprisingly delicious as well. This place has restored my faith in Mexican pastries. We will definitely be back read more

i had ordered an 8in cake and was super dry! i asked for marble and didn't even look like it had any chocolate. never again buying!

I have been haunting this bakery since it opened. They always have a smile when you walk thru the door and the shelves are packed with goodies. Now the bakery has expanded with a meat counter and many Mexican foods we all know and love. I am making my way thru their entire menu and have yet to try something that I did not love. The sandwiches are the best for flavor, size and price. The burritos rock! The chicken is just the best, the pork is right there with it. I can't say enough about the amazing food I have gotten here. I order things on the menu that I do not know what it is ( only place in the world I would do this) and I am happy, happy, happy. Treat yourself and check it out, you will understand. read more

$15 for a soggy cake. My son surprised me with a birthday cake from this place and it was disappointing for all of us when we took bites of a wet and soggy birthday cake. It's obvious that they freeze and store old cakes to save money regardless of how it affects the customer. My son also got me a mini cake on a separate occasion and it tasted hard and old. I wouldn't recommend. Save your money. Walmart has fresh cakes for $8 VS their old frozen and re-thawed soggy cake for $15. read more

I actually come her a lot when we run out of Spanish bread. I really like the "Conchas" and the stuffed pastries there.

Great food, bread, and service!! Be sure to say hello to the owner she is very friendly and will always be courteous and kind!!

Sometimes, I wake up in the morning craving Mexican sweet breads and this is the place I will go! It's located next to a 7/11 in not the best area of Sparks, but this place has some delicious Mexican pastries! You walk in, grab a tray and tongs and pile all the tasty treats, your heart desires, onto that tray. There are no labels on the pastry windows, so it is kind of a guessing game as to what you are grabbing, unless you are familiar with that type of sweet bread. My favorite is this triangle shaped pastry, that is filled with custard. I am not usually a fan of anything with filling, but this scrumptious treat is my exception. The service is great! They have a giant window, in the kitchen, so even if they is nobody directly behind the counter, as soon as you walk up, someone will immediately come over to assist you. They are amazingly affordable. You can pile two trays high with more pastries than you need and still only spend around twenty dollars. I love this place and will continue to come here for some of the best Mexican pastries Ive had. read more
