15 Best Bakeries in El Monte

“This weekend, at my niece’s Sweet 16 celebration, I tasted a cake that completely changed my mind about dessert. I usually hate cake—but this one? Hands down the most delicious, unforgettable slice I’ve ever had. I was so blown away, I had to ask my sister-in-law where she got it and the exact location. It was that good.“

“Been going to this place for years and their cakes are delicious everytime. They try their best to be accommodating and they will do practically any design if you bring them materials to do so. All I did was ask them to place the flowers and decor I bought on the cake and they went above and beyond. My mom's birthday cake was absolutely stunning and everyone complimented it!“

“It's a great little place. Another lost gem in Los Amgeles,please check it out. I live a block away,this place has so many options. Oh and ice cream,banana splits...❤️ IT!“

“I like do this Coffee Shop because the lady is so nice is that she think that I’m her grandson. She would sometimes give an extra donut. My dad also love this place. He would wake up early in the morning to get a coffee and go to work.“

“First time coming my husband and I stopped for coffee their quesadilla salvadoreña was delicious coffee good and Hot how I like it not strong not bland their staff super attentive and friendly she gifted us a piloncillo bread to try
Very pleased with their customer service will definitely come back to try their Tortas tamales and atole“

“My cousin recommended this place. He was gracious enough to share some conchas with me one morning and told me this is where he got them from. I finally went to get some myself. The reviews had me a little apprehensive because they mentioned rude customer service to non spanish speaking clients... I still went cause the conchas were literally the best I've ever had lol I wanted to get some myself. I am please to report, that my trip and experience was wonderful 🙌🙏 the women who helped me did not speak English to well but that didnt stop either of us from communicating with each other she was very pleasant and patient with me🤗😅 the prices are a little up there but I feel like most place sell sweet bread over a dollar now. Everything I got was $10.10 ... that was about 12 pieces of various pans(breads)... worth every pennies. The quality of bread, sweet and non is sooo fresh and delicious 😋🤤“

“Tiny bakery or shall I say Panaderia? The bolillo is terrific here. So is the sweet bread. The Borracho is my favorite. The one thing I do NOT like is that they always sell out of the stuff I like. The ladies that work here are as sweet as the bread.“

“Basic neighborhood Mexican bakery with delicious Mexican sweet bread, out of this world traditional tamales-my fix.

Vegetarian options: There is none except for the black coffee 😂

Parking: Chicken, and pork tamales are excellent. Jalapeno and cheese are *spicy*“

“I'm InLove! This place has the absolutely best champurrado in the world. In MY PERSONAL OPINION... The pollo con chile verde tamales are exquisite. I haven't tried the whole variety on the menu. But so far I'm impressed. It's a dollar too pricy for my taste, but it's tasteful food.
U gotta try the champurrado!“

“This is a great place to pick up quality moon cakes at a good price. They taste great vs many other overpriced locations. All their moon cake flavors are excellent. Great presentation and professional business. It’s at the corner of the Thai food place shared with the small market. Makes great gifts for the seasonal moon cake festivals! Do waste time on other places. Trust!!!“

“We love the El Monte shop very friendly and vary good boba love it“
