Stumbled upon this bakery while running errands one morning. The shop is in a smaller strip mall along Mission so it can be easily driven past. The gentleman was very nice and gave some excellent recommendations for breads to try. I was surprised to see 2 different sized concha's which are my favorite, and my husband has never tried it. Absolutely delicious. I was sad to hear they were sold out of tamales as I've heard they're really good but I guess it just means I'm coming back to give them a try! read more

Great selection on sweet bread. Tamales are very delicious and customer service is great!

Absolutely horrible customer service! Dry pastries. I don't know what happened. I used to come here and the customer service was good and so were the bakeries. But the man that I saw the last few times was incredibly rude and very unwelcoming. And the bakeries are not the same, they are very dry! I will not be going here again because each time I visit the bakery, I leave feeling offended and frustrated. read more

Beef red tamales good, chicken bit too spicy for me. Sweet bread I will stick to the cookies, bread like pastries hard & dry in less than 24 hrs. Ample parking, tiny space, no seating. Prices average. $3.50 per tamale. read more

I love sweets and I love fresh baked good so I stopped in to check it out. I bought a few fresh baked goods but I saw they have tamales fresh on Saturday afternoon. This was Sat morning so I said when will these tamales be ready. The owner said this is my wife's family recipe and her deal. She said come back after 2. I came back and bought 8 tamales. They were very very good would totally recommend them. The bakery items are great and tamales awesome so there is something for everyone. read more

CHICKEN CHILE TAMALES give me 20 of them! I got only 2 for a quick meal after my kids pediatric appointment and boy do i regret it. They are soft moist and they are a man sized portion as i say. Good amount of meat, and i will be bringing back hubby because i did not share lol. I got myself a nutty cinnamon muffin and my kid a smiley face cookie. I should have saved mine for my morning coffee but i couldnt help eating it all up as soon as i got home. I hope to come back for some bollio rellenos soon. I will call and come back when they are made. Cant wait to try. Surprised that it wasn't busy for lunch hour, i would be tearing up those tamales everyday if i lived closer. read more

This Mexican Bakery has very traditional breads. They are amazingly delicious, I love them with my coffee. The store front is kind of small. The day we arrived (we arrived early) it was just us. Most of the items are self serve, aside from items in the cooler display. Their tamales are amazing, especially the chicken tamales. I think their tamales were the biggest hit. Five stars for traditional breads and their tamales. read more

I do not recommend this bakery at all, all the bread they sell is hard and not good . Save your money and take it somewhere else .

Great little shop close to work and home. I remember hearing about them from a business card I got from the laundromat. I visited and took some photos of their pan dulce and pastries before bringing a box to work. They enjoyed the sweet bread and so did some of the other departments that were passing through. Happy Hour seems to be a little more difficult to assemble, but we all agreed that having a department get together once or twice a month would be great for boosting team moral and why not with some freshly made pan dulce? I look forward to returning. read more

I was very excited about trying a new panadería. However, I was very disappointed, I know prices have changed everything but 15 dollars for 4 pieces is a little pricey. Not only that, once I got home to the bread, I had a very stale and hard piece. Won't be going back. read more

Poor customer service, very RUDE, unprofessional and unfriendly, I left immediately,. Regardless of how much I was looking forward to the sweet bread,.I highly suggest that you DO NOT waste your money or time at this place!! read more

New Mexican Bakery in town! It's open every day almost all the time, they have pan dulce, cakes, desserts, cookies, and tamales! They can make custom orders as well. We got more than 5 pieces of pan dulce, 4 tamales, 1 flan and it was only $25! The staff is really nice, we'll be coming back soon. read more

So excited for a new bakery close to home. I bought carrot cake and it was the worst I've ever had! Dry , stale and no flavor but sugar. I might as well dropped $8 in the trash which is exactly where the cake went. They might be great with Mexican tamales and such but it has a sign BAKERY. There wasn't even a loaf of bread for sale read more

I just came back from Bakery San Jorge. I was excited to read about another new bakery in San Marcos that had recently opened and that they sell tamales. Well, I was a bit disappointed. The shop is very small and the clerk was very nice and answered my questions. Btw, they also sell tamales so I bought 4 pork. They had racks of sweet bread and I was delighted to see a variety of my favorites. I ordered champurrado and it was delicious...sweet, thick and hot. The bread was so-so. I normally love the "elote" sweet bread but this one was crunchy and stale. The pork tamal had bits of rice, what?! I've never had tamales with pork and rice filling...no bueno. I'm giving it because the other sweet bread was delicious and I loved the champurrado. Sorry, no photos. read more

Just stopped by this local bakery to see what they have. The pastries, cakes and cookies look delicious. Unfortunately the employee working today lacked basic customer service and was rude. You could tell he didn't want to be there. Also if you use a debit card they charge you 50 cents extra. I won't be going back. read more

I had hoped to enjoy this place, but after my second visit and encountering stale pastries, I won't be coming back. While I understand prices have risen, $8.50 for a cookie and turnover feels too steep. read more

It's a small little shop that offers Mexican sweet bread and tamales. The bread is really good but the tamales are even better. Best red tamales I have had in a while. The masa is extremely soft and you can really see and taste the chunks of meat. Service was very quick and friendly. read more

Only leaving this review in attempt to give constructive criticism. This bakery has a lot of potential but the last 2 times we have gone, the bread has been stale and hard. The first time was disappointing but we gave it a second chance and we were disappointed again. As a new business, I really hope you guys can learn from this and hopefully provide a more fresh product. read more

The tres leches cake was delicious. There was a variety of breads and drinks at a reasonable price. The store was very clean and tidy. I will definitely be coming back. read more

BE CAREFUL!!! My elderly mother came here the other day and the cashier was very friendly and chatted her up. With all the chatting she quickly paid and left. Later when she got home I noticed that the price charged was excessively high for what my mom bought. There was no itemized breakdown so we couldn't see the price of each item. A few days later my mom when back and said they might have overcharged her for her things last time. What I presume is the owner said she was sorry and that her daughter is new so she gets confused and might have accidentally charged her for the wrong items and or assigned wrong prices. However, my dad went a separate time and AGAIN the same thing happened to him. I told them not to go anymore since this is clearly a scam. Distracting elderly customers by chatting them up and overcharging them for items. The receipt is just a lump sum so it is even easier to do this to customers. Please double check receipts and item prices before leaving this establishment. read more

Chicken Tamales at this place is super good. Also, clean and lots of other different options to get. Worker was also nice. Definitely coming back again. read more

Bread is so hard & dry... almost died trying to swallow, had to chase it with water. There's a lot of good reviews though so maybe it's just the bread... read more

Great food . Tamales & breads are all so good. Service is always friendly. Been going since they opened

Bread was hard like if it was sitting there for days and was way overpriced. Staff was friendly but the place is really small it feels crowded with only four people are inside the shop. read more

Panaderia San Jorge was such a pleasant surprise especially before the holidays. Their chicken tamales are delicious and made daily. They also have Cafe De La Olla and champurrado. Their sweet bread is delicious. We ordered an apple tart and a pumpkin tart, they were ready as requested. We already tasted the pumpkin tart and it is awesome. There is plenty of parking and their customer service is excellent!! read more

The bread is very expensive and super hard, Old bread!! I was there hoping to find the bakery good but unfortunate my conchas were very old and hard not worth it. read more
