First timer recommend by my neighbor. Came for the gelatin and left with much more . Walked into the store and there's two areas to make purchases. One with the gelatins,cake slices and the other by the pan dulces. There were some friendly customers letting me know what is good to get(basically everything lol) I ordered bolillo,plenty of pan dulces, gelatins,flan and jalapeno cream cheese bread. The bolillo is actually the best bolillo I've ever had. I pulled it apart to taste it in the car and it was the softest bread but still with a nice crispy outer crust. It has a bit of a sweeter flavor which is amazing! I'll be back for more in the near future. There's so much to choose from you'll be overwhelmed if you haven't been before.They even sell donuts,candy,tortas, fresh juices,a big variety of cake slices, mini jello cups, etc. I read reviews going in,so I honestly wasn't expecting much. A lot of reviews on customer service not being great and confusion about the lines. I was a first timer and it worked out just fine with no confusion. read more

This is a true community gym needed in the heart of South Gate. This bakery location has decent store customer service since they often get frustrated with various orders. The bread options are filled with lots of variety. The ambiance of this place is hot sometimes that you're sweating in line and people don't know where the line starts or ends. The place receives a 3 star review because the parking lot requires a rebuild. You cannot go in and out without waiting for movement one side, to move to another. The place has front and rear parking but it requires a rebuild for vehicles to move around. It's that bad, that's why the review is the hardest drop. 7/10, the bread is great and options are limitless. Enjoy the recommendation. read more

Elizabeth Bakery - Hot and Freshly made Bolillos! - Bakeries Near Me - South Gate, California

Las mini conchitas son ricas, pero es absurdo que no las vendan por pieza y te obliguen a comprar una caja de 30 por $18. Nada práctico y hasta desperdicio si no tienes familia grande. Además, solo tienen blancas y de chocolate, y aun así se acaban antes de las 10am. De verdad deberían considerar opciones más razonables para sus clientes. Love their mini conchitas, but they won't sell them individually -- only a 30-piece box for $18. Super inconvenient and wasteful if you don't have a big family. They only carry the white ones and they're usually gone by 10am. Wish they offered smaller portions. read more

Bread is ok but honestly the price is to high, you won't know how much is the bread till they tell u the total, there are no price list and also they won't give u a detail receipt for each item u are paying. Also they charge extra .75 if u use ur debit card. Will be the last time I buy bread from there. read more

People were so friendly the line can get long but they had two ladies on the cash register. There are Dino cookies I should try one day! Also went here because I was looking for chocolate flan for one person they had it and more. I ended up taking home the flan and cheesecake portion mini instead. read more

Disrespectful people there, I sent my sister there to do a pick up for pan dulce And they gave me an exact time to do a pick up. My sister was literally calling me saying that she has to wait two hours just to pick up what I ordered. Even though they sent me a message at the exact time, it would be done and ready for pick up. Tell me why the female workers were calling my sister names and encouraging other people that were waiting in line to call her names and to make it worse the manager was involved too. With honesty, this place has gone to shit and needs to be under new management or hire real professionals even though this isn't the first time that I myself got disrespected by the female workers. read more

This place smells so good. Great bolillos here and their other breads are just as tasty.

Hoy tuve una experiencia muy desagradable con una empleada que trato muy mal a mi mamá, su nombre es Olga tiene muy mala actitud con los clientes, pregunte por el buzón de sugerencias pero ya no lo tienen. Muy rico el pan. read more

Terrible experience the staff takes their sweet ass time doing everything and then the type of people that go dont make it any better I sat in line for 30 minutes and it was only 4 people ahead of me. THE STAFF IS SO SLOW THEY'RE ACTING LIKE THEY'RE NOT GETTING PAID TO DO THIS SHIT. The floors are dirty and have gum on them the glass always looks dirty. ALL THIS FOR A DRY ASS CONCHA THE MOST BASIC BREAD SOMEONE CAN MAKE AND THEY FUCK IT U read more

Served Horrible day old bread. Gonna save as a paper weight. Referred by a friend for the pan dulce. Showed up excited and just got some below average pan and elotes. Would say 1 day old hopefully. But it's probably more like 2 days old and over priced. read more

This is by far my favorite bakery of all time. The sweet bread and bolillos are very good and soft. I especially like their mini conchitas and polvorones. All of their pastries and breads are very delicious and high quality. I would say that my favorite thing about this place is that the bread is incredibly soft and sometimes you even get your bolillos warm out of the oven. I've been to other bakeries before where the bread is hard and dry. Not here. It is always soft, fluffy, and very flavorful. So far, I have not encountered another bakery that beats Elizabeth Bakery. They're truly one of a kind. I remember coming here as a child and I always get childhood memories whenever I enter the door. I hope they remain open and keep operating for many more decades to come. read more

food amazing. bread amazing. service amazing. my family and i have been purchasing from this bakery for years.

5 stars for their bolillos!!! I do have to say that it is a little hard to like it when there is a long line and the person being served is ordering EVERYTHING!!! That's out of my control. If you want fresh bolillos, ask for them "calientito". They also have a separate counter where you can order cakes and another separate counter to order drinks. A good go-to drink is their champurrado! You won't be disappointed! read more

I love passing by Elizabeth's Bakery because of the smell but more when I actually get to stop by and get some Pan Dulce for my family. The service is exceptional here. The girls are always so welcoming and very efficient! The Pan Dulce is so delicious that it runs out fast. So you better run quick to catch your favorite Pan Dulce because sometimes they be running out or you have to wait until the next batch comes out. read more

Updated review after getting home. A woman who was helping me walked away with my partial order. To only walk on the other side to assist someone. I'm looking at her calling her to only be ignored and then laughing. I'm white so my Spanish is limited and for the first time ever after coming here for many years I can say today marks significantly a last day for me. I will not longer do business here only until I get a call back for the disrespect as a customer here and on the phone after trying to get my order solved.. Once realized my order was incomplete, I phoned Elizabeth's Bakery to let them know and I got hung up from an employee named Maria who refused to give her last name.After seeking help. The woman were laughing in the back ground and I was shocked at there behavior and I told her ultimately whats the point in giving my number when I know they would not pass it to a manager or owner. I'm shocked that this business allows there employees to discriminate against those who do not speak Spanish and the woman just laughed on phone at This morning everyone decided to avoid the enforced social distancing rules. I took photos also I was not a happy camper, But when we say anything these days it seems to start up a big disagreement among folks and escalates to physical confrontation. I'm dissatisfied due to the posted sign outside in big bold letters that read "take out" call ahead (in which I have never been able to do at all when I call to order they say just come stand in line ! I ask for sign to be removed. Ebt accepted here Cash excepted here Major credit cards a fee is added. Now let's talk about there bakery why I truly come here. Boillios are baked fresh daily!!!! who does not love bread even me a type 1 its rare to indulge but every pastry, bread, tamales , all food entity here is beyond the best. I have been coming here since I was 15 I'm 48 now. Parking is most definitely tight here. There us parking in the side of Elizabeth's Bakery as well but the employees mostly park there. Hours I know they open at 5 or 530 daily closing time I'm unsure but will post an update. read more

My wedding cake was not delivered as promised. My cake did not reflect he picture and the ornaments were missing. When I went back to complain, they could not do anything about it because the person in charged was not there. They asked me to come back, but I decided that it was best to let it go and write an honest review. I didn't give it one star, as the taste was good. read more

Alright So good: The bread . Bolillos, conchitas The food: tamales and pretty much everything is above average. You can't really go wrong. The not so good: wait times and limited quantities. So you either make line or you don't get it most times. The service in general leaves something to be desired, I've gotten a mix of bad service and whatever service. Never left there feeling like it was a happy transaction. I've never actually had the cakes here so I can't speak to that, but the bread is always fresh. I think the attitude is part of the experience. Something like a soup nazi from Seinfeld. It's good but just get in and get out. I guess I would be fed up with all the customers coming in also. read more

If I could have placed zero stars I would have. This place has the worst service. I placed an order for a heart shaped cake, they were quick to yak my money but when I picked it up it was a round cake and the letter message looked like a toddler wrote it. They stated that they don't do heart shape caked and that I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN!!!! how would I have known! I don't work there. They should have explained that they wouldn't be able to do it or at minimum called me!!! They did not! They charged me extra for it being a heart shape, and 3 leches. I had to take it home because I had no choice! The taste was horrible and not edible at all. Needless to say, they ruined my niece's surprise cake. The taste read more

Elizabeth's bakery has been around for such a long ass time! I remember coming here, 20+ years ago, as a kid with my grandma to pick up BOLILLO, even now my mom only wants BOLILLO from here for when she makes tortas. And that's all I have ever known, that at Elizabeth's you buy BOLILLO. This past weekend, my sisters and I went to pick up a few dozens of BOLLILO for a party, and that's when I started wondering why I had never tried their other items. They had a vast selection of pan dulces, donuts, croissants, cookies, cakes, cannolis, jello and flans. So much! Being who we are, we decide to try out a few things. We bought a mini glazed donut, jalapeno/cream cheese filled bread, peanut butter pan dulce cookie, ojo de guey, chocolate chip pan dulce cookie, a simple cheese cake, and a mini cannoli. Every single item was either tasteless or was stale. Incredibly disappointed with everything we got. I can't believe we waited in a separate line for such crappy pastries. The women taking your order aren't the cheeriest, which I can understand, don't let my two stars make you think its because of the service. Had this review only been about BOLILLOS I would have rated this place five stars, but overall it fell short. I will continue to come here for BOLLILO and that only, don't be fooled by the sugary colorful pastries. read more

Been coming to Elizabeth Bakery for as long as I can remember. My parents would always come home with fresh bolillos, warm and tasty! Definitely my favorite and always recommended. Their service line can get a little long during random hours of the day, but it's part of their delicious bakes! The place gets a little warm but it's understandable, something you should try! read more

Las conchas y los tamales están ricos y las donas muy ricas buen servicio lo recomiendo

Their bolillo is delicious and I drive an hour just to get some. You won't find another bakery with the same bolillo as them.

Sweet Bread, jello, and birotes are extremely good since they bake them daily. But as for the cakes its been two times that I ordered, and they are dry. read more

If I could give a zero stars, I would. I've been coming to this place for over 20 years to buy bolillo because it always seemed fresh, but it will be my last time! Today, I was invited to a family gathering and we all had to bring something. I made a quick stop here to get a jello and some cupcakes. This was the most humiliating experience I've been through. My dad was in the midst of cutting a slice when we noticed a huge fly. It wasn't flying around it, but cooked inside the jello. So disgusting! I left the family gathering terribly embarrassed and humiliated. When I went to return it and asked for the manager, I told her what I'd found (proof in-hand). She went to the register, retrieved cash, and handed it to an associate to give to me - no apology, no explanation. It was business as usual. It gave me the impression that this happens far too often. Stay away! The health dept will be notified. read more

My family has been long time customers, and this was likely my last time here. They don't take phone orders so I had to drive from Fullerton to place the order. Then when I came to get the cake it was messed up. Their printer machine isnt working right so the picture came out blue and I asked them to match the picture not mowing it was going to be a blue and grey cake. They didn't even care it was messed up. After getting it home the cake was dry. read more
