I'll be coming here for years. They have the best authentic Mexican bread. The owner still works in the store they make fresh on a daily basis cause it sells out so fast. The prices are reasonable and they offer different quality of bread but your mouth just,Sinks into the moisture of the bread at soft and it's delicious. You won't regret it so if you're looking for authentic Mexican bread, this is your spot. It's on White lane and Hughes. It's a little small store but it's very clean inside. read more

La Perla - The front door - Bakeries Near Me - Bakersfield, California

If you are looking for some delicious, soft, freshly made pan Dulce (sweet bread) this IS the spot. They also have donuts which my kids really like. Some of the bread options have a strawberry or vanilla feeling. Staff was friendly, and the place appeared clean and all the bread is in cases. They are very organized with a container for the clean and used tongs. Definitely recommend for some pan Dulce Forms of payment they accept: cash, Apple Pay, and card payment read more

See all

Absolutely love this place. Quite an assortment of Mexican pastries all hot and delicious. The staff aren't very friendly. I think it's due to a language barrier. read more

Best Mexican bread in town!!! This is a small hole in the wall but it's so good. We moved further away and still make the drive to them to get our favorite conchas! read more

LA PERLA MEXICAN BAKERY IS SIMPLY THE BEST. I've visited and tried many bakeries all over the great state of California. From Sacramento to San Diego. And I still haven't found a better tasting pan dulce bakery better than La Perla Mexican Bakery in Bakersfield Ca. Nobody does it better. read more

La Perla - Conchas, Elotes, empanadas y mas - Bakeries Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Service was horrible. Don't care if the bread is decent, don't give business to rude entitled people.

Best panadería in town. Friendly staff and old school taste. Try the heart cookies and the cheese cake bars. Incredible.

I would have given a higher rating but the person in there was rude. Never once said one word to me. The bread is delicious. They need better Customer service. read more

Family owned businesses with the cleanest & most delicious Mexican style bread. Bakersfield best panaderia you've got to try it

The best pan dulce in Bakersfield. I always go early before they sell out of my favorite items.

I think they have amazing bread! Their conchas are bomb! The place looks nice, clean, and organized! The only problem here is the horrible ugly attitude that cashier has. Doesn't welcome you when you walk in. Doesn't have basic manners! read more

The best croissants in Bakersfield. You have to go first thing in the morning. It gets busy, but the pastries are delicious, especially the croissants. read more

No hours are listed on their door and not even an answering machine stating their hours. EVERYTHING is listed/written in Spanish. Get some magnetic labels and write what your items are in English too. You have customers whom do not read,write or speak Spanish that purchase some of your items. Post your business days and hours on the door!!! Depending on the time, you will not have a good selection of their items. Very difficult to get into the strip mall they are located in. More so, it is difficult to exit this strip mall if you try and exit onto Hughes Ln. to try and go North. You must consider exiting East onto White Ln and making a U-Turn back to the West and then turning North onto Hughes Ln. read more

Great selection of fresh daily baked pan dulce The lady that helped me was very friendly. Great efforts of sanitation for minimal contamination. Come early for better selection. I was there at noon on a Wednesday and the 2 people that follwed me in didn't read the sign. ‍ Doesn't bother me but if you put a sign on the door, you'd expect people would respect that. Might be an issue on a busy weekend morning, but not today. read more

La Perla - the outside of a restaurant - Bakeries Near Me - Bakersfield, California

First let me start off by saying, I'm from Delano and my husband is from Earlimart so we love Mexican pastries. Something about Mexican pastries that just isn't comparable to your everyday donuts from the donut shop, on the corner, down the street, near your neighborhood. I haven't tried a lot of Mexican pastries here in town, but I know the ones here are freshly baked daily and are always stocked up. If I had to choose a favorite here, I'm definitely sticking w these little cheesecakes they make... yum. I don't know the name, so I'm sorry guys. My second favorite is kinda like a triangle croissant which has a vanilla pudding filling inside. They have such a huge selection that when you walk in, you'll end up leaving w a bag full of bread. I know they make cakes here too, but I don't know about the pricing. Bread is pretty cheap here and affordable. If you do visit here, parking is crazy and is sometimes jammed packed to where you'll have to circle around to find parking. Also, make sure to ask if their credit card machine is working because sometimes it's not and you'll have to pull cash out. read more

Our favorite panadería. I'm greeted with a "Buenos días" . Highly recommend the conchas!

Fist time here wont be coming back rude cashier can even say good morning, we were looking at the bread and she started putting bread, couldn't wait until we move or leave then said it was one per family it was only 2 of us, their no sign on the front door requesting mask or 1 per family, read more

La Perla - a view of a mexican bakery - Bakeries Near Me - Bakersfield, California

the pan dulce is fine. customer service is TRASH. the cashier never fails to have an attitude problem. every single time. extremely rude and bad for business. last time i go there, if i could give zero stars i would. read more

Bread is really good And kept organized and in clean area. The only issue is that the prices were not obvious and posted by each type of bread. So the charging has never been consistent. One time I got 35 pieces and total was $42 and the next time I got 22 pieces and the total was $37. So definitely ask what the prices are and make sure you keep a tally. Staff can be a little more welcoming but regardless of that, good place to get sweet bread. read more

Best place to buy pan dulce. It's simple, easy, clean, and the staff is welcoming. it's super cheap!

I love the pan dulce from here. It is the most authentic taste I have had. I have never had a bad experience or terrible bread. Def with the trip, especially in the winter. Delicioso!!! read more

The woman behind the counter shouted at me in Spanish and I left. I have no idea what she said.

Horrible, horrible, horrible service!!! Bread is okay, I have tried better . Over priced .

Favorite Mexican bread place in town! The worker is always so pleasant. The bread is the best that I can find close to home. There are no prices for any of the bread, but the worker can quickly tell you how much each piece costs. Very affordable nonetheless. read more

La Perla - Pan Dulce--Assorted - Bakeries Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Loved this place!! The pumpkin empanadas were really good and filling, the strawberry rolls are thick and worth it. They do have drink selection so that's a plus. Very good selection. Definitely be returning here. Parking is pretty tight location. Overall a great place to get some pan dulce. read more

The owner she's so rude and the price every time is different when I asked for my receipt she gives me only print with the total I buy not for each item with the nam and price. Every time I go different person charge me and with different price!!!!!! Not all the stuff is good and if keep the bred for one day will be so hard and taste so bad!!!!! read more

This Hispanic bakery is located on the corner of White Lane and Akers in the same strip plaza as Mariscos Puerto Vallarta. Parking can be a problem sometimes because of lack of spaces. I tried a cheese Danish and a slice of cheesecake. Paid $1.80 total for those two goodies. Second visit I tried the empanada with vanilla filling. Got a croissant and another kind of bread for my mother n'law. She loved the croissant and the other bread which was surprising cause she is very very picky. All the items that I've tried have been pretty good. Prices are about the same as most other hispanic bakeries in town. They are cleaner than most other bakeries in Bako. Without a doubt, I'll continue frequenting this bakery when I'm at the ice cream shop next door. read more

La Perla - Inside of the bakery. - Bakeries Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Went there for a sweet too fix the other day. I enjoy the fresh mexican sweet bread that is made throughout the day. Unfortunately we went a little later in the evening and they didn't have quite the selection that I'm used to, however, they did have plenty to choose from. The employees are very friendly and always greet everyone that comes in. They are helpful in answering any questions. They do charge to use debit, I believe it's either 25 or 35 cents. read more

What we bought looks good and the shelves were well stocked for a Fri afternoon. Service not the friendliest and Spanish speakers only if you have a question! The prices were great though (got 3 items for under $3). They give you a tray and some tongs for your selections - I wish there was some type of wax paper on top of the tray or similar for sanitary reasons. read more

Tasty little Mexican breads/donuts/cookies here. Parking REALLY sucks, but this place still tends to stay busy. They also have drinks and Mexican candies. I advise not to get too many things at once to keep what you don't eat right away from drying out and going stale. read more

I don't recommend getting your bread here found 2 hairs in one of mine so grossed out plus the bread is always hards and looks like it's been siting there for 1-2 weeks read more

Some of the best pan dulce in all of Bakersfield and this is very surprising considering the fact that the lady behind the counter, who I assume is also the baker, exudes energy that she hates both you and her job from the moment you make eye contact that being said she is fairly good looking so if your into that this might be a bonus instead of a negative. Any-who I will continue to shop here because the bread is worth both the price it takes out of both my self esteem and pocket. read more

Very disappointed first time here and very rude only one person at a time but if in a group 3 or 4 people allowed at a time no one inside no one waiting to come in and was asked that only one person was allowed per group how am I supposed to know what they have if it's the first time here? I would understand if they had a line of people to come in but how are you supposed to pick what you want first and last time coming to this place read more

Service is not the best. The ladies act as if they are giving away the food, they forget we are paying customers. The bread is delicious, but I wouldn't be back just because they lack customer service skills. read more

Bad costumer service from this lady who appeared to be tired or something. I wanted to order my birthday cake and she came up with a price and then when I asked her twice she raised the price higher. I don't think they want to make a sell. I hope they get better costumer service in the future. I honestly like the cakes but it's the attitude. Remember it's not what you say it's how you say it, lol. (: Mal servicio al cliente. La muchacha se le miraba bien cansada y sin ánimo de vender. Le pregunté por un precio de un pastel que quise para mi cumpleaños este sábado que viene y me dijo $220. Le pregunté la segunda vez y me lo sube a $300. Deben de tener a más gente que ayude a los clientes. De verdad que si tuvo una actitud bien mala :( read more

Came in in a Sunday with the family to get bread for the kids first time eating Mexican bread. Lady told us in Spanish we needed mask in order to come in, we told her we had none. Her response was well you need one to come in here rudely. We told her that's fine we would not come back. Rude service and just went to a different place with no problems. read more

I enjoy the bread so much and the pan dulce too. I never get disappointed everytime I take for my family or for my mother law.

Tried this place for the 1st time, rude service. The girl at the register had no personality and was just shoving my bread in the bag, the bread isn't fantastic. Won't be giving this place another try. read more

My husband and I stopped by around 10:30 on the weekend to pick up some sweet bread for his grandfather that lives a few blocks away. The shelves were full of different options and we grabbed a dozen of what we usually get from Vallarta. With the empanadas, there were no labels to which is which and the ladies behind the counter didn't seem to understand us or cared to help us. To compare with Vallarta, their sweet breads were smaller in size and from what I remember, more expensive than Vallarta. Don't think we'll be going visiting again. P.S: parking is awful. read more

Best mexican bread. Haven't tried cakes, but if you are one who loves Fresh Mexican pastries this is the best
