Chapala Bakery #2

I just bought two pineapple tamales and the one on the right look different and tasted sour and old, definitely not worth the price or coming back. Hope you can tell the difference on the picture, what is really upsetting is that I bought those tamales for my daughter.

Been to Chapala bakery #2 in Pasadena and have always had great experiences. Last night not so much I went and a young man didn’t even bother to greet us when walking in. Smelled like straight marijuana and didn’t seem to know what he was doing! Overall the bread is amazing and tamales are always great. Just lack of attention and good service.

I came here for the pan dulce. I thought it was a fair price for the bag and it tasted fresh and decent quality. I’m not sure how much each piece costs, next time I’ll ask. If you want cheaper bread it will not be as tasty. Street Parking is a little tight to get here, I wish it was a little easier. Also, their selection of pan dulce was less than I anticipated for a panaderia, perhaps they have low demand, but they have sufficient selection you have a pan dulce craving. I did think the conchas were superior to supermarket conchas. They are cash only, or Zelle, which I am not a huge fan of, but I can live with it, they are a small business, I think. They have a mural of La Virgen with flowers (offerings?) outside their store if you’re into that. Service was basic, I wasn’t greeted

Ordered tres leches cake for party. My, oh my, oh my … absolutely delicious, beautifully decorated, and so reasonably priced!! best I’ve ever had. No wait. Ready when promised. Thank you so much.

Food is delicious. A bit pricey but then again, what isn't nowadays?!🙄 The one complaint that I do have of this particular business is the tamales are tasty but they are quite stingy with the guisado. If you're going to be charging over $3 for a single tamal, it better be a well rounded tamal!😏 BTW, don't you hate how the majority of Mexican bakeries don't have the prices posted?!!!🙄
