50 Best Bakeries near La Puente

“clean fresh well stocked big variety“

“Pan delicioso en ningún lugar lo venden tan rico“

“I’ve been coming here all my life. I have traveled a lot and nowhere I mean NOWHERE makes better sweet bread than here. My favorite are the concha’s. They are super soft and delicious. And anytime I make my way down from San Diego I make sure this is a MUST on places I visit.“

“Wow their glazed is one of the best I’ve tasted. Texture and flavor like Krispy Kreme without as much sugar. Chocolate bar was too - best chocolate bar I had in a while, perfect sweet and dough airiness. All the circular donuts had a little bit too much dough air but it was still very chewy, like donut tree’s dough airiness but problem with donut tree is the dough is too rigid.
This place has some donuts that are better than rainbow donuts. I would say they’re pretty on par for food quality, except this place is much more enticing due to box presentation and friendly staff/owner with literate English. But the chocolate bar and glazed is too good!!“

“If u haven't noticed this little Bakery before.., it is probably bc 1) .. of it's lack of a HUGE sign in the front of the store. 2) ..u are not a 'Local' resident, who knows about it & probably pass it by when driving thru Glendora Ave., from Old Valley Blvd., & the Historic District, to Hacienda Ave. Word up! I like it bc they have been there since who knows when?? ? And they make a variety of the 'typical' bread u will find in many Hispanic Markets.. But? They also make Breads & Pastries that are unique to this Bakery, as well as Tamales, Champurrado, & Deli type sandwiches & breakfast w/ self serve Coffee bar & tables to sit & enjoy ur morning ? Pan y cafecito. Mind u the place is relatively small so there is a line very early, that usually shortens as the day gets later. I highly recommend a visit here when u have the time to relax. Enjoy! ?“

“What i love about this place,..the food they make in the kitchen, The Burritos!! Best ive ever had! Very big! They stuff it good! Low price, it beats anyone around!..the tamales are very delicious! The sweet bread is good Sometimes it does get questionable but for the most part its always good...the staff are very friendly nd proffesional“

“Excelente trato y buen sazón estilo D.F!!!! Definitivamente lo recomiendo...“

“👍 have heard they are pricey but worth it. Can’t wait to try one“

“Went into Crumbl tonight and when I walked in the first employee didn’t greet us or even make eye contact, but the girl worker in the back I believe making the cookies with super short hair was the sweetest and her customer service was top tier.“

“I love that it's never super crowded when I go in, a helper/cashier always comes to greet me within a few seconds, the vibe is always nice and chill. I love the large varieties of cookies there and they're large! Every cookie and small pie has been absolutely delish! I just had a small key lime pie this past weekend that SO good!“

“This location is my go-to store, and the customer service is always warm and welcoming from the moment we arrive. The staff greet my family and me as soon as we walk in, and there’s never a long wait for our order to be completed. They also take pride in their work by having me check the order before leaving to ensure everything is correct and well presented.“

“Want to acknowledge Vanessa your supervisor for such exceptional customer service really appreciate her food delicious“

“I went in on Tuesday, the new owners were in back of me. I was telling the cashier how disappointed my daughter was, we came in on monday and it was closed. Well the new owners, gave me a couple cookies for free. That was so awesome of them. My daughter was so happy and she said" Thank you so much!"“

“Overall, I would give this Crumbl location 5 stars! The cookies are very tasty. My only criticism is that the cookies are a bit overpriced. Crumbl is definitely worth a try for those craving a delicious and premium treat! The milk chocolate chip cookie is a classic and a favorite!“

“Patty's was very communicative and responded quickly to our emails about our wedding cake. They made a cake exactly to our specifications and it tasted divine! We got the banana cake with guava filling and cream cheese frosting, and we got so many compliments on the taste. I applaud Patty's and can't wait to eat more of the leftovers :)“

“The cookies are always great. The employees sometimes stand around and ignore customers that need help using the touchscreen order pad. I have witnessed older people walk in, not know how to use the touch screen device, and employees just watch them struggle. Other than that everything is great.“

“If this is not the best banh mi in all of Sgv and Oc, I don’t know of any place that can beat them. All cash by the way so come prepared. Their dac biet is the perfect sandwich and their daikon and carrots are light and bouncy with fresh jalapeno with the right amount of pate and butter. They have it down to perfection, nothing less. Had an open house and served it for homebuyers and they were blown away! Highly recommend! Cafe sua da is gold too, loved the shaved ice in the coffee and not too sweet. The ladies in the back are super sweet and you can buy the baguettes and freeze them, then 350 f for 6 mins in toaster or airfryer. Get the egg rolls, and pa te so is good too. My clients loved their vegetarian banh mi too!

Vegetarian options: Just get he vegetarian banh mi! Only vegetarian thing to get or just plain baguettes! It will be worth it!“

“my daughter s favorite chicken empanada is right here.“

“walked into this fabulous place and when i heard the melody of ‘red wine supernova’ playing at 9 am, i knew…breakfast was gonna HIT. we ordered 2 drinks, the mr. piggy stuffed bagel, a breakfast sandwich, and a pistachio croissant. everything hit the spot but the star of the show was the mr. piggy stuffed bagel. i was also SO excited bc i could put a picture of the best diva to ever do it on my drink in photo form - just a little something that brought me a LOT of joy! the staff are so kind and fabulous too 💟 can’t wait to come here again!“

“The bakery and tamales are delicious!!!“

“Went in to get some bread baguette's & bolio for my mom I ended up trying there egg rolls & they had a pork belly spring roll it was so Delicious I had the banh mi pork belly sandwich to die for the bread was just made hot from the oven everything was fresh excellent.“

“Grew up going to this panaderia. I stopped going for awhile, it's been a few years. I finally went back recently. And Even better than I remember it. The delicious pan dulce, champurrado, Cinnamon tea, bollio con jalapeño & cream cheese, also with papas & chorizo, ready mady sandwiches? cant go wrong! So delicious, my kids love it from here as well! Definitely recommend!“

“Melita and Angel were super fast! It's like they read my mind and my order was there right away! Parking took way longer! Their smiles and kindness and professionalism was awesome too! Thank u ladies! Ill definitely be back coz of u ladies!“

“sausage rolls are amazing“

“Only the best � All cakes are delicious but my favorite has to be the 3 leches and the Mango .“

“New ownership, and I’ve been going mainly for their breakfast sandwiches and burritos. They put in avocado and have these delicious jalapeños that break through the eggs and bacon. They also have cruller donuts my favorite which not all shops carry. New owners are super nice, call in ahead to save time!!“

“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.“

“Delicious pastries; great service. Highly recommend.“

“We get all our birthday day cakes from Lucky Treats, it’s just our immediate go to for the last several years. Michelle and her mom Denise are at the helm, they’re both very friendly and knowledgeable. We’ve learned from experience with other bakeries that a delicious moist cake and beautiful piping don’t always go together. But at Lucky Treats they do…beautiful on the outside & delicious inside & out! Many thanks to Michelle, Denise and the whole friendly & professional team.“

“I needed a catering job for the entire LA County/USC ER Room medical staff and all support personnel. 150 complete box lunches and I needed them delivered to East Los Angeles by 11.30 am. This amazing staff got up at 3 am to make sure the order was there and on time. Rave reviews were emailed to me about the quality and care of the delicious care packages given to each of those important caregivers at the hospital. First rate care and preparation. They earned my business and my respect. And support our local businesses. Just like hospitals we need diners and bakeries too! Job well done Crust and Crumble! Highly recommend.“

“My parents have bought my cakes there for everyone of my birthdays and any other special occasion. There cakes and pastries have never disappointed, we always get compliments on where we get our cakes. We live in Fullerton and we don’t mind the drive bc we know there cakes are the best.“

“clean fresh well stocked big variety“

“beast bakery around hands down! prices are great. I thier Mexican pizzas. definitely recommend. but you need to get there early“

“This is my go-to spot for a fresh bowl — Los Compadres Pan is one of the best bakeries around Pico Rivera! Their bread is always excellent, and the sweet bread is amazing too. Their manjar (filling) is hands down the best in the area. The prices are so good you could count the amount you spend on two hands. Definitely worth checking out if you love quality and flavor!

“This place is a family owned business and an absolute gem with the sweetest staff! I always drop by before I have a team meeting or a family outing. The blueberry donuts are so fresh, crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. Muffins are also out of this world. I always go for the blueberry or banana nut muffins. Everything is always fresh at Wen’s 🥰“

“Nice clean and delicious stuff“

“Best in the world 🌎 I love everything about the business“

“What a joy to have breakfast here!! There are so many brioches to taste! ? I loved the cheese brioche.
As for drinks, there is a huge choice, I chose the Vietnamese Savory Coffee ☕️. The taste is surprising.
Possibility of eating on site ?

Vegetarian options: Without meat“

“Nice little cafe with a small menu and tasty“

“Excelentes personas, el servicio más que bueno y qué decir del producto (pan) delicioso 🤤 manejamos 5 horas para poder comerlo. Recomiendo al 💯“

“I had such a wonderful experience at Sobok Sobok! Their coffee buns are incredibly delicious and truly unique. I especially love that the buns are made without caffeine and preservatives, which makes them feel even more special and enjoyable for the whole family. I bought a half dozen coffee buns for our Mother’s Day celebration, and everyone absolutely loved them!

The Dole pineapple soft serve was super refreshing and perfect for a warm day. The watermelon bingsoo was also amazing — easily one of the best desserts for hot weather. Everything tasted fresh, light, and flavorful. Highly recommend stopping by if you want delicious treats and refreshing desserts!“

“Great shop up by the stop & go. Bought some conchas for the fam and they loved them.“

“I love this location it’s super close to my house!!!

I recommend crumbl for having a lot of choices of cookies, having best chocolate chip cookies!!!

Then, what i love the most is that everyweek they have different choices of cookies that we can choose from♥️“

“I had a problem with a product and call them up and they took care of it right away . They customer service.is great.“

“Great small cake shop that has unique flavors!“

“Hiatus= opportunity for another stop in the LAtte tour. Today’s pilgrimage finds me in Sierra Madre at Syndicate, a fantastic find nestled comfortably downtown on Sierra Madre Blvd. Plenty of street parking and a beautiful place to take a stroll if you don’t score a spot immediately out front. The vibe is instantly welcoming, decor is colorfully minimalist, that’s probably not a thing, but it’s the best descriptor I have. The baristas are friendly, skilled and true devotees to all things coffee, even willing to share some potential sites to visit on the next LAtte stop. The coffee itself is excellent, rich, flavorful and no hint of bitterness. I went with oat milk this time and it paired perfectly with the blend, rich creamy, delicious! I can wholeheartedly recommend a visit should you find yourself in the area, or even if your not- expand your horizons and make it a destination, it’s worth it.“

“I have been coming here since about 1994 when I was introduced to Mexican cuisines by a wonderful girl I was dating. She took me to places that were the best and how to taste for good and bad Mexican foods.

Even though I was living in Pomona and surrounding cities until I enlisted in the Army, I would even make sure I came here when I was on leave. Then I moved to New York but never forgot this place. Pan dolce in Brooklyn and Queens is no comparison. So I would bring back pan from Durans Bakery. I shared my story with the folks at Durans, and I was mentioning how awesome Italian and Jewish pastries were in New York. Then, every month, I would bring back those pastries with mozzarella balls and bagels to share with my friends and family and, of course, Durans bakery. When I returned to NY, it was with In n out burger and durans who always packed the boxes with care for the long journey back.

Then 9/11 happened.

Wasn't as frequent, but I managed to make visits to durans and bring to New York all the pastries I could and vice versa.

I moved back to California after Iraq and military in 2005 to Ventura County, where i met my wife. I had introduced her to this place. She fell in love with the goods and the folks in the back. Always yelling out PRIMO, PRIMO to me, when I walked in. Had that VIP feel. But that's loyalty after 20 years of patronage.

Then Covid happened. Our diets changed, and the family got older. Kids were in school and had school stuff and sports. Our time wasn't there for a while.

We went to Aquarium of the Pacific for a family day. On our way home to Westlake Village, I suggested to my wife to stop by Durans. She had a huge smile and responded,'porque no', and here we embarked on the 45-minute detour

I knew EXACTLY where I was going. Parked, went inside what I knew was Durans Bakery from 5 years prior.

Now the place has a restaurant. But thankfully, the pan dolce was still there.

Some skinny kid was helping me. I had started to order a LOT until my wife explained to the skinny kid about NY and the years I have been coming here. Then he replied, "You're the one? We heard about you." I was slightly taken aback by the 'celebrity status' ( it's the little things in life). Then he introduced himself as the new owner.

Well, he explained to me the change of ownership and his vision. I had stopped my order from 10 lbs of goodies to just a small box. I said I would try a little in case the taste changed. He said it hadn't because he didn't want to lose his loyal customer base. I understood, and that's a great business move. Don't fix it if it ain't broken.

He offered me a taste of chilaqules, which I declined. (I have been traumatized from a previous relationship by chilaquiles, so i never had it again.)

Well, after a 45-minute conversation with the new owner (the skinny kid and if you're reading this, forgive the description). We had departed on our way home.

Sunday morning, the pan dulce was gone. All of it. GONE. this was as good if not better. The pastries his mom made.. I think he said mom, I could be wrong. They were flan and some other refrigerated goodies. But they, too, were amazing.

Durans Bakery did NOT disappoint.

This is the moral of the story. This long, long story.

Please visit Durans. They will not disappoint.

Their success will continue. I will still be loyal and be on the receiving end of that success by enjoying the best Pan Dulce I have ever had in my short life. 30 years and still counting.

I am disappointed, however, at longer making cakes especially, tres leches.
