Came with some friends before heading to the airport. Since we were there 2hrs before closing, volume was very low. I got coffee and toast. My friends got a sample of several pastries. Service was good. Employees spoke English which was helpful for the family I was with. Ambiance was good- clean, plenty of table. Not much to say it's cafeteria style bakery.
I always come here before or when I first arrived in Puerto Rico. I came here before I left and ordered their delicious fresh bread and a sandwich. The service is always amazing and I definitely recommend it. All the items are fresh. It is a nice friendly environment with small tables. They have foods such as paella and other dishes. My family enjoyed their items when I arrived in New York.
Those who are in the know, know about this place. It was recommended by our friends who are from Puerto Rico. It was loud and boisterous in here. There is a seating area and it fills up fast with people who are constantly jockeying for a table. We got lucky and found a table next to the line for sandwiches. I ordered a pastrami sandwich which, when I got it, was piled high and had a magnificent cheese pull! My daughter only wanted a cinnamon roll and she had it and was a little disappointed. She said it wasn't as good as my wife's cinnamon rolls. I gotta say I'm biased as well. Right before we left, I ordered a baguette, which we ate throughout the day. It was nice and warm when we started. It lasted a while. We'll be back and I'll be hitting other sandwiches and pastries as well!
All the food, coffee and pastries are delicious here. We ordered a little bit of everything to share with the table because we came in a group. We got cappuccinos, cheesecake, budin, tembleque, flan, almendrados, bolitas de coquito and a brownie. Everything was delicious and they definitely have a lot more on the menus. There is another part that offers PR food like rice, sandwiches and more. They had live music and even had a couple do a quick little dance. Staff were friendly and informative. They offered suggestions and they were a delight to interact with. When in PR I will always visit this place.
We were meant to go to another spot but our uber driver reccomiendo d this spot. They have a huge selection of baked goods, hot foods. Soups, seafood. We came in at 7:45am and by 8am the breakfast line was HUGE! I enjoyed everything we got and would recommend this place. There is a lot of space for seating and the tables were clean as well.
This is an all plant base restaurant. They have all the Puerto Rican specialty and some other Latin and American popular dishes. The restaurant is spacious with colorful and expressive art all over the walls. You're hearing Latin music in the background there's a large bar in the left corner. The menu is big, there's so much that you would want to try so go with the big party. Your offered three different styles of plant proteins when you order your traditional dish. We had the Pasteles, Mofongo, ALcapurria and Sorullitos. Everything came out hot and fresh. The Mofongo was out of this world. And I make Mofongo. The Alcapurria was delicious of Smith's first time having it. The portions are large enough to share. Or have leftovers. You are so lucky to meet the owner. The super friendly gentleman he gave us the backstory of why he started this restaurant. Changing his diet helped him recover from cancer. And it was about the way he ate. So he wanted to share this opportunity with meat eaters. So the whole goal of his restaurant is vegan food for meat eater so they can see that they are not missing anything. The owner also is a famous DJ. He has a talk show radio. And he's been doing it since the 70s. It was a lovely experience my Bestie found this restaurant for me. Because I'm a vegan/sometimes pescatarian. I don't get to try all the foods. It was such a lovely experience. read more

Okay, if you're in Carolina near the beach..Just cross the bridge and come here. I will say, it's sort of pricey but fresh. An abundance of friendly staff. They have everything from breakfast to lunch to dinner, wine, bakery, deli items and more. Its located right by the highway so it's busy and good. My dad has taken me here in the past. Okay so not super expensive but definitely on par with tourist pricing due to location but I can't knock the hustle read more

Wonderful sandwiches; we had the turkey Swiss and a ham and cheese- the sweet ham is delish. The baguette is quite good. The quesitos with cheese are always good. Service isn't overly friendly, so that was slightly disappointing, but the food is worth overlooking the service flaws. Near the beach, good walking distance to eat in or takeout. read more

Food: 10/10 Service: 10/10 Ambiance: 10/10 Honestly, if I could give this place 20 stars, I would. This was the first place where we ate when we got in from our flight and we ate here again after our travels on the island. The first time we ate there, my husband ordered a bunch of food to share. We had some fried chicken wings, tostones, empanadas, rice and beans and my son had a Cuban. All of these dishes were cooked and prepared perfectly, exhibiting so much flavor. One day, when we went to the beach, I walked over here and got more empanadas, some soup and fresh seafood salads like a ceviche. Again, no disappointments and happy taste buds were all part of the experience. I'm actually thinking about going back there this morning before our flight! read more

This place was amazing! As soon as you step in, you're greeted by the smell of fresh bread and pastries. The breakfast food was just as impressive. My family visited this location for an early breakfast, and it was hands down the best panadería we visited on the island. The food was delicious, and the staff was incredibly kind and welcoming. I still can't stop thinking about the quesitos and sugar donuts they were unbelievably soft, fresh, and full of flavor. The coffee was also fresh and hit the spot perfectly read more

Let's put it this way - I've been to San Juan twice and I've been to this bakery 4 times. One of my favorite cuisines is Spanish food so I am a sucker for a place like this. They have many different offerings from hot meals, sandwiches to baked goods. They also have an incredible variety of pastries. My favorite are the cheese guava pastelitos. I even brought some home to share! This place is very busy but you do get your food pretty quickly. There are different lines for the pastries and the hot foods so it's well organized. It's cafeteria style and open seating so even when it's full, a group will most likely wrap up at some point which will open up a table for you to snag. I cannot recommend this wonderful place enough! read more

This place surprised me it had such a great variety of foods, sandwiches made to order, seafood salad. Alcoholic drinks, coffee and a Hugh selection of pastries. There is a parking at the back of the building. Everyone was super friendly. Great prices. There is takeout of seating for eating inside. Relaxed atmosphere. read more
Busy all day long. I mean PACKED. Extremely difficult to park. Kind of like an old automat or cafeteria, order your food, find a seat and they bring it to you. They call it a 'Panderia,' which is Spanish for bakery, but this is not like any bakery I have ever seen. Meats and cheeses and sandwiches and bottles of wine and liquor all available. Food is pretty good, if you don't mind the hustle and bustle.. read more

Packed and fast paced but that's not a bad thing. The food here was INCREDIBLE. So many options that it was hard to choose, definitely easy to over eat here. One side is all pastries and desserts, and the other side is hot plates and sandwiches. The Cubano was mouth watering, the tres leches was *chefs kiss*. If you want a taste of the culture, both through the cuisine and the people, come try this spot out. read more

Sandwiches and the coffee was very good thank you I am not sure of the name but it was fantastic!!!!! The bread!!!!!! It was a breakfast sandwich with egg sweet ham and cheese. And my mom had the same but with turkey. It was busy, there is parking but is very busy and they have a free valet that moves cars in front around to get people in and out. Its a bakery with 3 counters serving breakfast and lunch, pastries and breads and spirits. read more
When everyone from the resort staff to the Uber drivers, and even the locals couldn't stop talking about this bakery, I knew I had to taste what all the hype was about. First of all, the Bistec sandwich at Panaderia España Reposteria is an absolute must-try! The steak is tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. Every bite is a perfect balance of seasoned meat, fresh bread, and just the right amount of toppings. It's the kind of sandwich that makes you want to savor every single mouthful. Delicious! Next up, the Choripán. This sandwich is a flavor bomb! The chorizo is smoky and spicy, with just the right amount of kick, and it's paired beautifully with the crusty bread. The seasoning is spot-on, and the taste is out of this world. If you're a fan of bold flavors, this one's for you. Superb! The Cubano is another winner. The layers of ham, roast pork, pickles, and mustard all come together in perfect harmony. The bread is pressed just right, giving it that crispy, golden exterior, while the inside stays soft and warm. It's a classic for a reason, and Panaderia España Reposteria nails it. Amazing! Now, let's talk about the desserts. The Key Lime Pie is heavenly. The tartness of the lime is balanced perfectly with the sweetness of the creamy filling, all nestled in a buttery graham cracker crust. It's the kind of dessert that makes you close your eyes and just enjoy the moment. The Besito Coco is another treat not to be missed--sweet, coconutty, and melt-in-your-mouth good. It's a little bite of paradise. And for coffee? It's rich, smooth, and exactly what you need to complement all these incredible sandwiches. The flavor is deep and satisfying, with just the right amount of bitterness. It's the perfect pick-me-up! I'm so caught up in enjoying this food that I'm having a hard time finishing this review and hoping Yelp doesn't time out and lose my draft before I have a chance to eat and type. If you're in Puerto Rico, you need to make your way to Panaderia España Reposteria to verify for yourself as for me I'm diving back in for another taste of heaven. Big shout out to the team at Panaderia España Reposteria. The food is absolutely, phenomenal. Hype verified! Everything I've heard about this bakery checks out! read more

This place is massively busy and well known in PR for classic Puerto Rican and Spanish cuisine in a casual setting. Came for breakfast and ordered a ham egg and cheese sandwich, which was massive. Odd to say but there was too much ham, to the point where the deli meat was cold even though the rest of the sandwich was toasted. Still I am intrigued by all the non-breakfast food and will try to return for lunch or dinner. read more

Cappuccino? Maybe. Chaos? Definitely. Popped into this absolute hive of activity, seems to be the go-to spot for locals and law enforcement, which is always a good sign. My "cappuccino" was tasty, though served in a paper cup with whipped cream, so let's just call it a solid, cheerful coffee. No complaints here. The flan was the real star: smooth, rich, and perfect. The Bizcochoto, however, was a bit on the drier side of life. As we pondered this, the lights briefly cut out. Just another Tuesday in Puerto Rico, adding to the authentic, unfiltered charm of the place. la flan! I'll be back for that, and maybe to see if the power stays on. A genuine local experience. read more

Friendly staff, a lively atmosphere, and a steady flow of customers make this spot feel like a community favorite. The flan was enjoyable, but the real standout for me was the cappuccino--perfectly bold and balanced. Even though one of my choices wasn't quite what I expected, the overall experience was warm and welcoming. You can tell people come here not just for the food, but for the sense of nostalgia and connection. Definitely a place worth returning to and exploring more of the menu. read more
I had a hard time connecting with Panaderia, in part because there was a language issue and because I couldn't figure out how to order food like some of the pictures of meals that I was seeing in the Yelp pics. Here's what I know for sure. There is a bakery area with flan, pastries, cookies and dessert. There is an area where you order sandwiches with a visible sandwich menu. And there seemed to be other, more meal type foods available, but I didn't feel like there was a clear indication of what those foods were or how you ordered them. At one point, somebody asked the chef to come out because we were having issues communicating and the chef was more conversant in English (I don't speak Spanish). The chef was very kind and he named a number of things that he could make for us. I appreciated that, but I also wondered why there wasn't a menu available. I was fine, but it was a difficult experience to navigate with my 12 year old son, who is not a sandwich person. In any event, I ordered a Bistec sandwich after seeing somebody else eating one. It was good, but actually looked even better. I had a bite of a guava pastry, which was also good. People who seemed to understand all of the moving parts better seemed to enjoy themselves better. 3.5 Stars read more
Very good! So much more than a bakery! I was disappointed with my order but only because I didn't know what to order. I ordered a tostada and it was a grilled cheese sandwich. The guava and cream cheese pastries were amazing. The flan was absolutely perfect. If you are a carb lover, this place is for you! read more
