Mekato's Colombian Bakery is a place worth driving an hour for, with delicious chicken and beef empanadas, amazing papa relleno, and uff-worthy hot chocolate. The bakery offers a variety of Colombian treats like jugo de mango con leche, buñuelos, pan de bono, and carimañolas. While the service is chill, some have noted an aggressive owner, though the rest of the staff is friendly. The atmosphere is authentic with a wide range of Colombian products. However, some have found the food lacking in quality, with pandebonos having a strange taste, empanadas needing more meat and flavor, and cold cheese in the carimañola. Despite this, many still love the bakery and recommend it for a quick snack.
