The ABSOLUTE BEST tamales here. Hands down, my favorite place out of everywhere I've been so far. They are a little pricier but for the size, taste, and quality it's worth it. Do make sure to come early if you come on the weekend because they get sold out fast. I believe they only have two kinds, chicken and pork. Both of which are phenomenal. The chicken isn't dry and has tons of flavor and the pork is just delicious. read more

I'ts taken me a very long time to find a panaderia with conchas as soft as a cloud, and finally found them. Even at 3pm when bread has been sitting out, the conchitas were still SOOO soft. It's a 25 min drive from my house, but def worth it. The staff was super nice and friendly. read more

Been coming here for over 20 years! My family and I absolutely love this self serve family owned bakery. The baked goods are authentic and always fresh. We've tried a variety of their baked goods and tres leche cakes - everything is always delicious. They have a build-your-own torta option as well for lunch. I don't speak Spanish very well and all the staff speaks minimal English however their positive attitude and kindness is always still apparent in all of our interactions! Definitely stop by if you're in the area! read more

Food and pastries are great. Along with the service. Has nice clean ambiance. Good for grab and go.

Nice place, good location. Very busy in the morning. Very good baked goods. Love their donuts... however, their tamales are horrible! Anyone that recommends this place for their tamales does know what tamales are. Their baked goods though are amazing read more

The donuts were made fresh for pick up at 4:30am. They were all gone at work. Great place. read more

Best tamales around and great offerings for bakery items. I have been to just about all of their locations.staff great

Tamales were perfect - juicy, flavorful and reasonably priced. Best I've had in Chicago-land area thus far. Those of y'all not living around the area looking for some really good tamales I promise it's worth the drive. The second best thing about this place is the bakery. They had green and red tamales (not spicy at all, those looking for a kick won't get it here), pork, chicken and pepper with cheese. My absolute favorite were the pork tamales. I also enjoyed the chapurado read more

Amazing all the pastries and bakery items are fresh and the service feels like home you have to check it out read more

Aracely's Bakery - Amazing - Bakeries Near Me - Melrose Park, Illinois

This bakery has been here since I was a little girl and their quality has remained the same. I will say, I only go here to ordered strawberry filled scones (the Mexican version). I've recently discovered they have TAMALES and TORTAS. TORTAS - choose from ham or turkey. I like to compare them to Jimmy Johns except these are glazed with avocado spread. *YUM* read more

My Dad order conchas two weeks in advance for his posada. For our supprice when we were serving the conchas to our guesst all chocolate conchas were hard as a rock. It was so embarrassing to find out that that in the end of la posada. There was nothing we could do. I was soooo ebmarrased. I do not recomend to order from this bakery as they will make you look bad in your parties. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Mi papa ordenó Conchas para su posada dos semanas con anticipacion. Para nuestra sorpresa el dia de la posada cuando estabamos sirviendo el chocolate y el pan, algunos invitados se quejaron que el pan estaba duro. Fue un momento muy vergonsoso para mi que el pan estaba tan duro. No puedo creer el servicio que oferecen. Yo no recomiendo esta panaderia para sus fiestas, ya que posiblemente los haran pasar verguenzas igual como le sucedio a mi papa. read more

Me gusta por que tienen unos ricos tamales y por que los empliados de a ora a tienen mejor que los que estan antes

Best tamales ! I honestly live for this tamales they are the best in town and hands down and that was a rhyme without even trying LOL

I preordered a birthday cake here. When I went to pick it up I wanted to check the greeting. The person told me the box was sealed but assured me the greeting was fine. When it was time to open the cake I noticed there was no greeting written on the cake. This is the basic task of any bakery. I was completely dissatisfied and will never buy anything from this "bakery". read more

Best tamales. Seriously. My husband doesn't eat too spicy and they are not spicy but still have s little kick to it. Pan dulce is fresh. Also they have pan de muerto during dia de los muertos. read more

There tres leches cake are awesome. It doesn't get better than this IMO.. They are very friendly and always very dedicated to making your cakes the way you want it. for a reasonable price. read more

This is the only place I get tamales around the area.Whenever I want some in the morning they offer different choices but my favorite are the rajas con queso that's about the only thing I buy from here they offer a lot of different products but I've never tried any of them read more

Tried their chicken tamale this Monday and I've been thinking about it ever since. I used to hate tamales but theirs completely changed my mind. I can't wait to try something new from there. read more

Came here by recommendation and got a variety of items to share with our family. We were disappointed. The biggest win was the churros they are really excellent. The worst items were these sugar cookies that had Chicago Cubs designs on them. They were flavorless and stale and for $2 not at all worth it compared to some other items. Overall we had a hit or miss experience some items were quite excellent, and some were just not good at all. read more
