Pan de La Selva

Randomly discovered this place after the Seahawks parade! We were hungry and thirsty and thought it looked cute so stopped in. We were so pleasantly surprised to find all kinds of Latin American pastries and goodies! They were all new to us and looked so amazing in the case, but we eventually settled on an ube cinnamon roll (canela?) and the guava matcha latte. The cinnamon roll was so dreamy and soft, with a bright beet purple frosting on top that had a rich texture, but wasn’t too sweet. The guava lattes blew us away - it had good quality matcha, and the guava syrup/nectar added just a touch of sweet. The light tropical fruity flavor complimented the grassy matcha so well. Seriously, try it.

I'd been excited to try this place and it only exceeded my expectations! All the pastries we tried were delicious and the breakfast sandwich was spot-on. Flavors are so well balanced, complex and fun. We had so much trouble deciding what to try, so I'm sure we'll be back soon for more. The space is also comfy and welcoming!

Pan de La Salva is quickly cementing itself as one of the best bakeries in Seattle. Mayra Sibrian's mastery of traditional Latin American baking techniques combined with some really unique, balanced, and unexpected flavors is on display through every item on the menu. The cafe has three main offerings: beverages, a hot breakfast sandwich, and a case full of pastries. For beverages, the Salvadoran coconut horchata is a must. It's unlike any horchata I've had before—lightly sweet from some bananas or plantains with a deep cinnamon flavor and a savory nuttiness from toasted sesame seeds. It's incredible. I also tried the tepache which is authentic and tasty. Next up is the breakfast sandwich which, again, is probably unlike anything you've tried before. A perfectly textured bolio with beans

Amazing, high quality, worth every penny. Officially my favorite pastry shop now. Thank you for opening near my work but at the same time now im gonna be eating more carbs now… I’ve had south american pastries often but this place puts them on another level. So grateful to have this experience.

Pan de La Selva provides pastries to Bonito Café y Mercadito on E Olive Way. Bonito's panaderia selection always sounded so good (and so sold out) that I had to go straight to the source. I got a modest six items during my first visit (plus a drink), and all were good. The particular standout of my selections was the rajas con crema hojaldre, which is savory and gooey, with some outstandingly good puff pastry - pleasantly crusty on the edges, with a stretchy, chewy durable interior. None of the sweet items I got were too sweet, and all tasted fresh. I can't wait to return to Pan de La Selva to try everything else on the menu. The one problem is that they are open only on weekdays (and close at 3pm), so good luck if have to work during regular business hours. However, some items are avail
