I've been coming here for a long time, nothing has changed much. There's a couple tables inside, the ladies behind the counter are always friendly, and the food never disappoints.

He was assisting me with ordering food because there is very little information with the menu. They had a menu stand with pictures but it was only showing lunch so my friend showed me that there is breakfast menu they just have it on the wrong side. Mid conversation the lady in the store starts yelling at him about the sign. To the point he didn't want to eat. Then while trying to place an order she doesn't understand me but the one person that could have helped the both of us she antagonized him. I placed my order for bacon egg and cheese I got the breakdown instead. She ruined a good morning

I've loved Lucerne for over 20 years -- it's a place that holds childhood memories for me, so it's…read morehard to write this update, but I want to be honest and fair. I stopped in again this past Tuesday, and the experience was very different from what I've always known here. The service was unfortunately very rushed and inattentive. We had hoped to dine in, but our food was packed to-go without asking. My sandwich was bland, and even though the cashier asked for my full order, parts of it still came out incorrectly. I know Cuban bakery culture is fast-paced and "grab and go," but this time it felt like because we weren't regulars, we didn't receive the same warmth or care. At one point, I even felt like the cashier was worried I might walk out without paying -- an uncomfortable feeling I've never experienced here before. They seem to be renovating, and I truly hope it's just growing pains, but things felt disorganized. Someone was offered an item from a handwritten menu, only for another staff member to say it had actually been removed. The digital menu wasn't fully updated either, which added to the confusion. It honestly makes me sad to write this, because Lucerne has always been a special place to me and my family. I'm really hoping they find their footing again after the renovations and get back to the level of quality, flavor, and warmth that made this bakery such a treasure for so many years.

Lucerne Bakery is a classic Miami bakery with great service and perfect take-home treats…read more On my way home from Miami, I wanted to bring back some local pastries and rather than hitting a trendy bakery, I went with what I know: go where the locals go. That brought me to Lucerne Bakery, and as expected I'm so glad it did. This place is super busy, but the ladies behind the counter are incredibly friendly, fast, and efficient. Despite the crowd, they took the time to answer my questions, help me pick out the right items, and pack everything with care so it would survive the flight home (which it did perfectly). The vibe is old-school, no-frills, but super charming. If you're in Miami and want great coffee, authentic local pastries, and genuinely kind service, skip the hype and head to Lucerne Bakery. It's a must-visit in my book. I can't wait to have the pastries I brought back..

We can all use to eat a little less. Portion control is a problem for me since my grandma always made me clean my plate. The problem is that it wasn't very good. Not horrible but just very good. It's premade and then flat pressed so no idea how long the sandwich is just sitting there. Very dry and the a little more meat would be nice. I took my PcL home and fixed it up a little...a lot and that helped I was hoping the $3 pan con lechon would be good and I would make it a staple of my weekly meals but I'm just not looking forward to getting another one.

I was hosting a Spanish cuisine dinner when my brother surprised us by sending Uber Eats with Flan…read morede Leche and Tres Leches for dessert for all of my guests--and what an incredible surprise it was! From the moment we opened the containers, we could tell these desserts were made with care and authenticity. Each dessert was individually packaged, arrived in perfect condition, and looked just as beautiful and fresh as if we had picked them up directly from the bakery. The Flan de Leche was incredibly smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced--not overly sweet. The Tres Leches was moist, light, and absolutely delicious. Every single guest raved about the desserts and wanted to know where they came from! Another wonderful surprise was the generous portion sizes. Each dessert is easily large enough for two people, and even three can comfortably share one. If you're looking for authentic, high-quality Spanish desserts made with exceptional flavor and care, look no further. This bakery exceeded all of our expectations and helped make our dinner party truly unforgettable. I will absolutely be ordering from them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for the best authentic desserts in South Florida!
