La Panadería Bakery Café

Stopped in for lunch and was impressed by the variety on the menu. I ordered the turkey torta with a Caesar salad. The sandwich was decent, though I think I would choose a different bread next time. The Caesar dressing had a bit of a spicy kick, so I was glad it was served on the side. Their pastries looked absolutely delicious—unfortunately I didn’t try any this time, but that will definitely be my pick on my next visit.

I lived in San Antonio for 35 years and this is the first time I visit this establishment. We went for breakfast and the food was delicious. I had ham and egg torta, I know it sounds basic but it was delicious. My wife had a Milanesa torta and also wasvi amazing. I will definitely try it again soon, may be like at least twice a week. Food, environment, service, all GREAT!

Came here from out of town looking for Fratellos and say they've been replaced by the panaderia. Check it out any way and was very pleased. The staff was great and they're who convinced me to get some pastries. Very tasty and well made pastries. The interior was beautiful too.

I’ve come here more times than I can count. The service is always good and the food doesn’t disappoint. The pastries are just as great. They even have a fresh juice bar. It does get busy so just plan ahead. It’s definitely worth the wait. I’ll continue to be back here.

I went to the store on 10/11/25, all the staff was great super friendly and very efficient. Especially Rosa, she was at the front desk/cashier she gave me amazing recommendations for a first timer, thank God I followed her advice. The portions are big on the salad, the cheesecake was rich and thick. I also added some drinks, like the jamaica margarita and the frida khalo (my favorite). Mid meal the manager came over to say Hi, she was super friendly and helpful for real. I have been here just for the pan dulce before, which is so good, I'll definitely be back here. :) 5/5 stars

We came from Alabama and stopped by La Panadería while visiting San Antonio, and honestly, it was one of the highlights of our trip. Arlet, was so kind and helped us choose what to try. Every recommendation she gave was spot on. The Café miel and the pistachio-filled concha were divine, we actually went back before leaving the city to grab some conchas for our family to try. Simply the fideo they serve was spot on! Tasted like home:) It’s a super clean place with great service and just really good vibes all around. Definitely a spot I’d recommend to anyone visiting San Antonio. You’ll love it.

The guys behind the counter were super attentive and made me feel like I belonged there right from the start. They gave me their recommendations and we were off to the races. Great suggestions and I took a cup of coffee for the road.

We had such a great experience at La Panadería! The bread was delicious, and we tried a torta and the lentil soup, both were amazing. My family and I really enjoyed the place. Mateo was incredibly helpful and made our visit even better. Highly recommend!

Consistency is key here and it's what keeps me coming back to every La Panadería location! Every time I visit the food is always on point with flavor and presentation. This is my favorite item, bacon and egg torta on birote bread with black beans. Please try this if you haven't! The bread is amazing and perfectly executed! The food came out fast and the employees are always so nice making it a great experience! The ambience is very fast paced but quite enough to enjoy a nice meal with a friend or family member! Definitely bring your out of town people here if they haven't been.

This is a different location to the one we usually go to. The wait wasn't very long and even though the parking lot was packed it wasn't a long wait to get in or order. The employees are nice and the food was great. Honestly, the frosted doors of the bathroom were super odd! I know people outside can't see in, but I also don't want to see the silhouette of the person outside waiting to come in. It was just a no for me. There is also no where to hang your purse and I definitely didn't want to put it on the dirty floor or the wet counters. Overall it's a good location with odd restrooms.

Coffee Shop No. 506 La Panderia Bakery & Cafe San Antonio, TX June 9, 2025 La Panderia bakery and Cafe in downtown San Antonio is a true staple in the city, just a short walk from the Alamo. The Mexican-inspired menu is both creative and comforting--I enjoyed the CroLuna Tequila Almond Croissant. It was outstanding; flaky, not overly sweet, and generously sized, it felt like an indulgence and a great value all in one. My cortado matched the splendid news of the croissant--smooth, balanced, and made just right. The space itself adds to the experience. It's a large corner shop filled with natural light, where bright yellow chairs pop against warm wood tables inlaid with read-and-white tile. The wood ceilings give the cafe a cozy, welcoming vibe despite its size, making it perfect for lingering with a good book or friend or grabbing a quick bite. Service was excellent--warm, attentive and efficient--which really sealed the deal. Whether you're in town for the historic, the food scene, or searching for the perfect cortado, La Panderia deserves a spot on your San Antonio must-visit-list. Enjoying life one cortado at a time!

Impressive at first glance--the pastries are massive inviting photo-ops, and the bright, airy interior sets a modern, inviting welcome. I came in for a late brunch on my first visit, recommended by a local newcomer. Parking is tight but I managed to score a spot. The process is casual: order at the counter, then relax while they bring your food out. Service both at the counter and delivery was friendly. The big, bold Alamo Burger leaned heavier and greasier than my usual savory preference. While the oversized mimosa looked festive (think margarita glass), unfortunately it fizzled in flavor and tasted more like dull orange juice than a proper bubbly brunch cocktail. Even with an empty stomach, I couldn't power through half of either. That said, I'd be open to giving this chain another indulgence try with their coffee and panaderia.

Decides to try dinner for the 1st time. Loved it! Will say I had the carnitas with the Cole salw on the side. Loved the bread .. soft but yet thick enough to stand up and stay together through the ancho bbq sauce. The banana torte was so delish!!!

Everything was great, I tried their concha's tooo but brought them home...soooo fluffy. The lobsters Benedict was so delicious, my husband and I enjoyed this place.

So many fantastic options!. I would have to come at least a dozen times to try everything I wanted on the menu. A little pricy, but an awesome spot for breakfast or lunch. Or anytime really.

La Panaderia is by far one of the best restaurants in San Antonio! No matter how many new locations they keep opening in the city, the high quality and amazing service is reflected across all of them. With that being said, this location is their newest addition to their portafolio and as expected it did not disappoint. This location is a little smaller compared to others, but I think is tailored to locals. They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, but please note that they can get pretty busy. My go-to order is their chicken milanesa with telera bread and side salad. Please do yourself a favor and order this! The chicken is always cooked to perfection and the balance between the aguacate and jalapeños is absolutely outstanding. Now, if you are not that hungry, then I recommend any of their delicious baked goods. Overall this is a five-star location and will definitely be coming back soon!

More than a bakery Food, drinks , great hang out atmosphere Definitely returning to try more of the menu Pastries are fresh of course, lots of staff to help and serve Restrooms are unisex and individual rooms Modern facility designed with great taste Free and private parking lot

They always have a ton of options and everything is delicious! I highly recommend trying the actual food menu you'll be impressed!

Food is absolutely amazing! Service is great and quick. Ambiance reminds me of Mexico City bakeries.

The food was so good! I got the grill chicken salad bowl & the cheesecake the service was so nice and timely. The place is kind of loud since I went for lunch and it was very packed on a Friday afternoon. Everything was clean and comfortable and very inviting, such a nice place for lunch if you could get parking and a table!

La Panadería has a new location near the Pearl! What a great location, and what a great cleaned up decor. There's more parking available at this location too, a feature that is severely lacking at their other restaurants in the city. This location has an updated menu with more options for sides, including a lentil soup and a veggie rice, both delicious. Their tortas, baked goods and coffees are as delicious as ever, tasty, fresh and just succulent! This bakery / restaurant has mastered the art of baking like very few others have in Texas. I speak from experience having lived for a decade in Montreal, where bakeries are treasured. We will definitely be back and I don't see myself visiting other locations now that this one is around. It's so much better! Oh, and it even has a red carpet. Nothing can beat that type of welcome! *Winks*

Get there early chances are you will have to wait in line. But OMG. It was so freaking good. We tried the tequila French toast, chocolate croissant and a conchas. It was amazing

Food is always good. Pretty loud crowd as I suppose folks are out for brunch. I ordered steak & eggs. One knock I have it that I asked for medium on my steak and it was well done. Oh well, can't complain about a steak at a bakery.

First timers and it did not disappoint. The line was quick and service friendly- with the exception of one cashier who shushed me when I asked for another pastry - really had to keep my composure. Please don't work somewhere you aren't happy being! The pastries were delicious and flavorful. The place was very clean although a bit chaotic and difficult to get someone's attention for simple items like silverware and water.

La Panadería on Lower Broadway has delicious pastries and coffee, where you can relax in the dining room and socialize. The tequila almond croissant is a classic: flaky and crisp on the outside, tender and sweet on the inside. They also have savory options like a ham, cheese, and jalapeño croissant. Part of what makes La Panadería a winner is that the menu has something for everyone. It's a great place to gather. I'm excited about this new location on Lower Broadway, especially with the easy parking.

I'm ashamed to say I had never been to any of the locations of La Panaderia but it's always been high on my "want" list. When this new location opened I knew I had to visit. We started off sitting outside because it was a nice day and the chairs out there are so comfortable. It started to rain so we headed inside and the interior is so well decorated. I had the croncha (cross between croissant and concha) and I wanted to go back for seconds. It was so light and airy with the sweet crunchy concha topping was perfect. The chicken in my salad was seasoned really well and they give two dressing for the salad, one spicy and one mild. It was a simple salad but so delicious. Will definitely be back, or maybe try the other locations!

Super delicious and so cute inside. The food was very decently priced! Coming from California I was expecting this to cost more but I was thoroughly satisfied with everything that came out! The service was also great! Although this place was not set up as a restaurant we were waited on and checked on every now and then about how our meal was and to clean up plates. I ordered the Al Pastor torta and fiedo soup. The soup was okay, I would give it just maybe 2/5 stars for that fiedo soup. The Al Pastor torta was a 4/5. The drink I ordered was the cafe con leche. It was an okay drink as well, I think I forgot to ask for sweetener so it really did not have much flavor.

Really solid spot! The coffee was great and the pastries were even better--the Nutella cruffin was amazing, and everything we tried was delicious. It does get crowded since the space is small, so it can feel a bit rushed and loud at times, and parking isn't the easiest. But the staff keeps things moving and the vibe is lively. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area--just come ready for a busy café atmosphere.

Food is always of excellent quality and the pastries are fantastic!!! Always a must stop when in San Antonio. Ambiance is a little too noisy for my preference but it's a popular spot all the time (the one off Broadway at least). Service is good, friendly.

This is our second time at this new location. Love the free parking. We came on Valentines Day and it was pretty busy but service was fast. I tried something new this visit, the waffle. Very yummy. Next time I'd add a potato or toast but the flavor was delicious.

Great ambiance and terrific bread here Dessert coffee and meals Highly recommend three locations

Joshua, was super welcoming once we came in the door and helped make our food choices. He went far and beyond to make our experience here wonderful. Thought it was worth mentioning! Best experience ever!

I had a great breakfast here. The staff and environment was friendly. My food was very pleasant in taste and appearance. I had the ranchero eggs on toast with chicken and an Apple pie. The crust on the pie is flaky and tastes great. The apples were sliced thin and cooked to perfection in the pie.

Our favorite go to when we are in the area. It is always crowded! Delicious food & especially all baked goods. Lots to choose from. Service is efficient.

Let me start with the ambiance. I am not local I was here on vacation. Lucky was I to experience such a great bakery place in San Antonio. Everyone was having a great time and seemed to be enjoying their meals. The pastries are amazing delicious and unique. We had the tres leche croissants, tequila almond croissant, dipped chocolate ear and huevos rancheros. 2 regular coffees. The tres leche croissant with strawberries was a culinary surprise! Wow spectacular. The huge chocolate dipped ear was so light and crispy and did I mention it was dark chocolate bam wow perfect for the cafecito. The huevos rancheros were delicious! Oh Yesi got mine with chicken omg I was not ready!!! Locals tourist alike this is a must have and experience

Delicious food, delightful service, and phenomenal pastries... the newest addition to the La Panaderia family on Broadway offers an array of tortas, breakfast and brunch plates, and smooth, bright espresso. Bring your appetite... cheers!

The food is always beautifully presented, served hot, and fresh to order. Their Chai Tea Latte is hands-down the best in the area. This is my second time visiting this location this week. I love that it's closer to The Pearl. The service is always friendly and fast. This location is beautifully decorated, a great addition to downtown.

Literally the best conchas I've ever had! They do not skimp on the fillings for the filled ones. My only regret is not buying more since I'm not local. The tres leches croissant was amazing as well. Our party also ordered a smattering of food items - breakfast plate, avocado salad bowl, Alamo Burger, French toast and everyone was happy with their food. Portion sizes were large. 100% would come back here the next time we're in San Antonio!

We went on a Saturday morning, and the line was decent but moving fast. It is first come first served for seating as well. Ordered the LP waffle croissant and 2 conchas. The conchas were very soft and perfectly sweet. The croffle was very soft and buttery! Timothy was very nice and made sure we were ok!! Loved the food, the service, and the ambiance!!

This place does not disappoint. The guest service is always on point. The food is always so delicious. It's made to order. The Mexican pastries are a must have. They now have fresh pressed juice, did not skip a beat. The place is very open and the patio is perfect.

It a friendly environment. The food is awesome. I would recommend this for breakfast or brunch. Love the food.

First time here and everyone in the staff were so kind and went beyond giving us best recommendations. Smelled so delicious. Hot coffee and fresh bakery bread. I was so in love with the conchas. I am willing to pay the price for a good big quality bakery item keep that in mind.

Excellent food and service. It was nearby the Witte Museum so we went before going using our City Pass. We had Sunny Side Up and French Toast Clasico with scrambled eggs along with the house coffee. Highly recommend this place! Nice environment.

I would just like to say that I've been coming here to the la Panaderia on Broadway for years and every time my husband and I go there Mrs.Jessy greets us with a smile makes you feel like at home. Best location ever if you ever go there get to know Miss Jesse, and say hi to her. You'll see what I'm talking about.

There's no one at the front door to welcome you & tell you to get in line & order first. However- a very kind gentleman told me what to do & that he'd find me a table. It was pretty full. I chose a berry pastry & ordered a chorizo & egg torta with black bean spread on a birote bread, with the house coffee & a Mexican coke & for my side , I chose a ceasar salad. I didn't get my coffee until I reminded someone I had not received it yet. When I did, it had coffee grounds in it & the cup had lipstick stains on it & dripped coffee stains on the sides. Why can't restaurants give drinking ware a little wipe? My meal came & it smelled good. The salad was crisp & the dressing was tasty. The chorizo/egg needed more flavor - the bread was too chewy. I'm not sure if I'll be back.

Best Panadería place to get conchas! Timothy was so nice and kind and helpful! The place looks amazing as well!

Just a mexican girly in the neighborhood. Happy with what I had. Full sandwiches $13, they seem to be standard croissant bread, I crave a bolio. Two different types of kids meals are available for half the price and hit the same. My local cousins almost immediately ... "you have to go to the bogie panaderia, our favorite is the kids meal." Do you people! The pan is elevated. Concha sugar shells were too thin for me, but the bread was crazy soft. Worth a try even if you're used to something else.

Sooooo delicious. There was a line to get in but we didn't have to wait very long. Great customer service and nice ambiance.

Highly recommend this restaurant. The desserts were absolutely delicious and the food was very tasty. Everything was amazing. The restaurant was very clean and the staff were so friendly. 10/10. Worth every penny!

The food is good but it's not worth waiting in line for an hour. They need reservations or call ahead sitting options.

Lovely location ! Inside and outdoor seating are great, coffee was excellent! All the pastries are outstanding! Ham and cheese croissant was delicious , almond tequila croissant and strawberry and cream are a must! My favorite was the strawberry one ! The menu it's just crazy good ! All the Mexican sweet bread conchas are just dreamy! Beautiful display family oriented kids friendly I loved the outdoor seating under the trees. Excellent customer service the hostess was very helpful explain the most favorite ones at the door friendly beautiful hospitality.

While most of the goodies were sold by the time I got there, what they did have I was pleased with. Service is good and it was not busy the time I was there, I liked that! I will have to return for lunch at a later time and add to this review.

Been wanting to try this place for a while and it was a pleasant surprise. Really worth a try. The sweets are good I like the many different choices. It was a bit confusing finding where to order how to go about seating and stuff but the staff was helpful and friendly. A bit pricey on the baked goods but will probably come back to try more. Felt nice inside like a cafe.

Wow so much to choose from and everything our party had was delicious! The baked goods were amazing!

A highly recommended location by the locals to stop by and try and what a big disappointment. We first came in at 7 am to a long line and not a very typical American breakfast menu, so we left. We came back at 3pm to hardly any pastries, the kitchen was closed and the hot latte was not HOT!!! Will not return or recommend this place.

I came here to get chicken salad and when it came out the chicken was soggy and moist.I had to then tell the manger to cook the breading more,then when it came out it was so crispy I couldn't even bite into it.I just left cause clearly this place sucks Literally the simplest menu item and they couldn't even get it right

Food is excellent service is fast friendly staff I just wish there were more seating it's always very hectic or not easy to find seating which is amazing they have business flowing but yes everything else is excellent the food is great the sauces is flavorful I hope this place stays this way and the staff are always attentive I plan on coming here for a long time always such a great experience and the options with the bakery is worth the price the portion size is perfect love this place it's my favorite
