    Bolillo and sweet bread in the same PLASTIC bag

    I'm a bread and coffee person. Always looking for my favorite panadería in town and since u just moved out here im in search of it. I like the fact that I was greeted with a buenos días. The bread looked fresh and picked up 3 pieces plus a bolillo. They were all good. The reason for my raising was because it was $1 fee for using a cc a little too high for only spending $4. I understand that they are paying a fee themselves but $1 seems a lil excessive. The reason i wouldn't be back is because they placed all my bread in a plastic bag. Never have I had that experience. Always in paper bags or boxes. Paper bags are not expensive try investing in those. Also placed my bolillo in that same bag. We all know you are supposed to separate sweet from the bolillo. At least I thought we all knew this.

    Chela's #2 located on the corner of Heacock and Alessandro

    Believe it or not, this was my first time going to a Mexican bakery. I have tried a variety of pan dulce (sweet bread) and conchas - usually from coworkers who would bring in goodies. Walking inside Chelas Bakery #2 - oh my gosh, it smelled so good! The aroma of freshly baked bread and pastries immediately tantalized my tastebuds! Surprisingly, the setup is similar to a typical Asian bakery where you would get a tray and tongs and help yourself with the selection of baked goods. It can get pretty tight in here since it is a very small shop. You'd have to be okay with being close-in-proximity to other people (or just wear a mask). One of the customers inside the shop told me to try the Arroz con Leche bread, so I helped myself to one to try as well as their Piña bread. I picked out a few more pastries and paid about $7 for everything. Not bad! Unlike the pan dulce I've tried from my coworkers, the bread from Chelas is not dry. It's actually got quite a chew to it. It even stayed chewy after a couple days - still not dry. Score! The only downside are the super crumby cookies on top - just my own personal dislike (I don't like all the crumbs on my shirt). And the other downside: not enough days to try all the yummy treats LOL. That just means I'll have to pay another visit to Chelas! Would I recommend Chelas #2? Absolutely! Apparently they have 2 other locations (Chelas original and Chelas #2) in Riverside. Prices are fair, the conchas were delicious, and the lady who helped me provided me with good service!

    Conchas!

    They have delicious pan dulce/breads. I love the old wooden hutches/display cases. They catered an even of 300+ conchas for the holidays in short notice and they were great, even with vegan options.

Heading towards wine country, it was along the way off the 60. Made it easy as it was a couple minutes off the freeway. It's located in a pretty massive strip mall with loads of other businesses. Plenty of parking which is alway a good thing whenever you're somewhere. Simple storefront but once you walk inside the place was pretty big. On side of the bakery is where the pastries and baked goods are. If you haven't been to one of the chain stores, you grab a tray and help yourself to the package sweets. There's rows and rows of fresh baked daily goods. Every piece is individually wrapped. Not only sweets, there's also sandwiches which I didn't even know they had. Along the front where the cashier is, whole cakes and slices are available. Once you finished picking out what you want, take the tray to the counter and that's where they ring things up. Drinks can also be ordered there. I did pick up a couple of boxes of the individual pastries and sweets. Both savory and sweets. A while strawberry cake and two drinks. That came up to about 108.00. The staff were all pretty sweet and friendly. I overheard one of the other cashier asking another patron if they wanted something heated up. Which I asked the cashier that was ringing my order up but she couldn't heat my croissant up as it wasn't the pre wrapped sandwiches. Only sandwiches could be heated up. Oh well. As I ordered drinks, which the other half of the cafe is the dining area. First off, the place was pretty massive and majority of the space in the middle isn't utilized. Just an open space which the could have added more tables for seating. Even though there was good amount of people working the drinks counter, it took forever for our drinks to be ready. It seemed like only one person was making the drinks which I think took at least 10 minutes for my drinks to be ready. Overall, it a nice space and the shelves were fully stocked. Come first thing as you know everything should be fresh and available. Downfall, it took forever for drinks to be made and it wasn't that busy when we walked in.

    I got tiramisu, egg tart, ube, choco bun, cheese bread and mango-strawberry smoothie. I really…read moreliked everything. Amazing service, food was good. Place is spacious and perfect. Overall

I came in around 3 PM on a weekday, and they didn't have many flavors left, so I bought all three: berries & cream, pumpkin cream, and red velvet. It wasn't a hot day, and my friend's place was only about 5 minutes away. But when I opened the box, the cupcakes were way too wet and moist. I picked one up for a picture, and the coating actually stuck to my fingers. The strawberry also tasted like it wasn't very fresh, almost like it had been sitting out for too long. They tasted okay, not bad, but nothing really stood out. Unfortunately, the overly wet, chewy texture and the not-so-fresh strawberry really ruined the experience for me. Sorry, but I wouldn't recommend this place.
