El Gallo Bakery is a beloved local institution, serving the community since 1949. Their bread is soft and fresh, and their cafe de olla and champurrado are always warm and perfect for early mornings. Tamales are decently priced and filling, but may vary in quality depending on the staff. The bakery also offers a range of sweet treats, including conchas, which can be hit-or-miss. The "cuerno de mantequilla" is a standout, with its heavy, buttery, slightly sweet, and crunchy edges. While the rice pudding may not be the best, the bakery's commitment to tradition and quality ingredients is evident. With its rich history and loyal following, El Gallo Bakery is an essential LA destination. Whether you're a local or just visiting, this family-owned bakery is a must-visit for its delicious breads and traditional Mexican pastries.
