    Delicious and fresh Pan Mexicano daily. Worth the drive to Union City from Hayward.
    Tony B.

    Stopped by one of my favorite panaderías. A bit pricey now but worth the drive once in awhile.

    Angela was great helping me out choose the different Pan dulces, everything I ordered was delicious and prices are really cheap. All made in house felt the love they be putting in it.

    They've had some remodels since my last visit and it looks great! It is now more modern. Service was quick and good, I went in the evening and there wasn't a line. I was worried they would be a cash only business but they accepted but credit, debit and Apple Pay! The pan dulce is consistent and always tastes great.

    Yummy options

    Cute little bakery. No seating inside or outside so be prepared to take your sweets home! The options of pan dulce is incredible! I got a few concha's, empanadas de calabaza , and bread pudding. I did really enjoy the concha's and puffing more than the empanadas but I think I should have ate those on the first day. Service was fast. However, the lady was not the warmest of people which made me want to order quick lol despite there not being a line. That's another thing to consider, this is not a self serve bakery, the worker grabs the bread for you. Try it out see if you like this spot despite the lady. Also, they have frozen drinks available that had alcohol labels on it but I didn't want to ask the lady.

    Great bakery located inside Island Pacific!…read more We're always excited to see new bakeries pop up (especially Filipino bakeries) since we've mainly grown up with Goldilocks and Red Ribbon. I saw someone talk about this bakery on social media and was already noticing how pretty it was due to the outside decorations. The first time I visited, I bought so many different things for myself and for my family so that we can all try it out. I bought a few snacks and a few different breads and split them up between each household because I definitely could not finish them all on my own. The pricing was reasonable, the only issue I really had was that some of the items we bought already started molding the next day. Not sure if they should have been in the fridge, but it was just a little unfortunate that I had to throw some away so soon. I do want to come back again to try some of the hot food that they have behind the counter.

    This panaderia has so much to offer…read more The first item I have tried from here was their ube pie - it was flavorful. I also liked their pandesal... crunchy on the outside, a little airy and soft inside, close to the pandesal I would have when I was young back in the Philippines. Their bibingka is tasty and a little chewy. Good chewy, as if it has some mochi flour. Above all... I love their "scramble". I have tried all 3 flavors, but my favorite is the Ube one.

Immediately upon entry, you can see the huge display of neatly arranged donuts, malasadas, and pastries and they all look amazing! So many flavors to choose from that it was a little overwhelming. As others have said, the price point is around $5.50 per piece so have that in mind going in. Ordering was simple enough and servers were kind and patient. Parking is maximum 3 hours and there are some tables and chairs outside to sit and enjoy your goodies. Overall, I think I'm still going to stay loyal to Doughweime in Union City, but these malasadas do live up to the hype. Everything bagel malasada: Surprisingly really good, a light cream cheese filling with everything bagel seasoning on the outside. And the texture of the savory donut was crispy and airy. 9/10 Strawberry cream malasada: Kind of plain, would've been good with strawberry bits inside. 7/10 Biscoff cream malasada: You can taste the real Biscoff crackers in the filling. 7.5/10

I haven't been here in a while, but yesterday I paid…read more$33+ (before tip) for four donuts - that means if I had gotten a dozen, it would've been $100.

Two very kind ladies noticed us looking at the ice cream cakes and took the time to offer a few recommendations. We decided on the Oreo vanilla ice cream cake, and it completely exceeded expectations. Super creamy, rich without being too sweet, and packed with Oreo flavor in every bite. I've had plenty of ice cream cakes before, and this one was easily better than anything I've had at Baskin-Robbins. The texture was smoother, the flavors tasted fresher, and there was none of that overly processed dry cake texture. Perfect for celebrations or just as a treat. I'll definitely be coming back for another one; probably gonna try the mango fresh cake next.

Both the sweet and savory pies are delicious, and I like that they rotate their menu with a mix of classic and more unique flavors. It makes it fun to keep coming back and trying something new. Some of my favorites over time have been the chocolate chess, cheeseburger, and berry custard pies. All very different, but all really good in their own way. Would recommend this spot to anyone looking for pie!! There are honestly not a lot of places around that you can get crafted pies from, so I think they fill a niche market here - a market that I am certainly a part of.

Unfortunately, it was melting (my bad) when I finally got to eat it. Chocolate whole pie for others. Got other slices for friends to try and they enjoyed it. Pandan had a nice flavor, they don't use extract which is even better. Lemon chess was good - great lemon flavor and creamy. Will need to get French silk again to eat it as soon as possible or keep in fridge when ready to eat, haha.

Not only are you able to purchase from their bakery case, you can also request to have desserts made for special events! (In advance of course.) I very much enjoy their macarons and fresh fruit tarts. They also added Banana Matcha to their menu when it became a craze, and I 10/10 would recommend it. They use high quality matcha powder (Marukyu Koyamaen) for their drinks. This is one of the few things that drew me into their cafe. The baristas are extremely friendly and have a wonderful sense of humor, AND they support small businesses! While you wait for your order, you can browse their shelf full of crystal candies, matcha sets, candles, and they may also have Natsume matcha tins available! (This is not the matcha they use in their drinks, but it's nice to have other options available to buy.) ^^ So if you're in the East Bay and are looking for a business to support, go to Always Yours Bakery Cafe (they're also available on the Too Good To Go app)!
