A cozy panadería my wife and I discovered. Freshest pan that we’ve had in a while. Super soft cookies and pan with reasonable prices. We got 3 pans and 2 cookies for under $8, not bad. This place will be our new go to spot.

A fun and delicious bakery with a large variety of pastries, tamales and other go-to food supplies.

This is a great shop to pick up the necessities and a sweet treat while you're at it! On Sundays, there is a farmers market in the parking lot, so you can grab something to snack on while you roam the market or get your groceries and then finish up with a pastry. The prices are great too!

We went in for pan dulce and came out with a bunch of goodies.

Seems like they only want certain people to shop there other then that pretty bad service, rude and rather not shop there anymore, besides a Tamal is not suppose to be that expensive. Last time I shop here

Horrible tamales .I can't even tell what is on the inside. I think it's some kind of cheese stick ? Definitely disappointed.

I just wanted to say that, this bakery is a rip off. They price for 1 single tamal, was $5.35. That is a robbery. You can find tamales as good, in Watsonville, for a lot less. Try the “Tamale Factory” . Don’t all these people to steal your money!

Stopped here on a whim on my way out of Santa Cruz. Make this a must stop! Grabbed a couple conchas and tamales. The conchas were light and fluffy, perfect with some coffee. The pork and jalapeño w/ cheese tamales were HUGE and worth every bit of the $4. If we had stopped here on our first day in town guaranteed we would have been there every morning of our trip lol

Customer service was not very friendly! I love Mexican food and pastries. When I went, I felt very unwelcome.

Small market with BIG flavor. Pastries, tamales, and other goodies. The portions are nice and large for the price. Definitely recommend coming by if you’re in the area.
