excellent customer service the tamales and bread are fresh and good the bana bread is delicious. Also plen of parking

I don't like to leave bad reviews for small businesses but I had to let yall know how was the tamales. I bought a dozen of the Mexican tamales verdes de pollo, some conchas, and a champurrado. The tamales are terrible. They individually wrapped in plastic and that's when I should have known. They were extremely dry, had a faint taste of burnt, and I did not get any green salsa. I was disappointed as I ordered a dozen. Conchas are average. Champurrado wasn't sweet. read more

Great customer service always welcoming you when entering. Shout out to all the ladies in the morning thank you girls for all you do!!!!

I normally love going to Marilus for a quick Lunch especially when I found out they made tortas de tamal! I've been going for years now and have seen staff come and go. Today I was shocked when the lady not only refused to make my order but gave attitude about the way the torta is made. I have always asked for no mayo. Today she gave me a tamal and a bolillo separately and said we can't make a torta without the mayo.???? The only pregnancy craving I have and I was so disappointed, she said they can't make a torta without the mayo? The attitude and customer service are ridiculous. read more

It's was a cold chilly morning , beautiful month of October as I walked in to Marilus Bakery at approximately 6:40am. It was the top of the morning , bakery had fresh bread/drinks ready to be consumed. I was accompanied by my fellow coworkers, each who were excited to try out the bakery. The fresh and delightful smell of the bakery had us since the start , and to mention the great atmosphere of all the wonderful workers that served us! We each got champurrado and atole de elote which were both outstanding drinks , very flavorful! Some of us got tamales and others bread. Everything was delicious!! Best of the best ! The bakery is very clean and filled with great vibes. Keep in mind that you will be having trouble to decide what to order since there are so many delicious foods/drinks to choose from on the menu !

Best coffee and the freshest bread, they have friendliest staff. I come every time I work nearby.

Picked up a large box of pan dulce. Lots of deliciously fresh baked items to choose from as well as cakes, coffee, cocoa and freshly made champurrado. I loved seeing the kitchen in action baking all kinds of yummy things. The champurrado was hot and tasty, perfect for my drive in to work on a cold and rainy day. Plenty of street parking. I can't wait to go back to try more items. Thank you Marilu's Bakery! read more

Marilus Bakery - Custard mousse cake - Bakeries Near Me - Long Beach, California

Marilu's has been around for a long time. The quality of the bread has stayed the same (subpar) throughout this entire time, but the prices have increased. I've had incredible pan dulce, specifically Guatemalan, from other bakeries and at better prices. To be completely transparent, I believe Marilu's is still in business for 2 reasons, 1. because they're the only Bakery in the area outside of the generic pan dulce sold at big chains like Northgate for example. The second reason would be due to the other menu items such as the juice bar and the tamales + other food items. I contemplated for long what I would include in this review. I've had a lot of negative experiences, more than positive ones. Myself, relatives, friends, neighbors. We have all had the same or very similar experiences. But I don't want to highlight any of them in this review. Having patronized this business for so many years and seeing where they lack, not having any improvement at all over time. It's clear they get enough business to not look into better management and customer service. They've even opened a 2nd bakery on Anaheim street. Customer service is an area that no business can afford to lack in. A couple of snobby, rude, employees can greatly impact business BUT so can one single warm, attentive, respectful employee. That is the case here, there's that one ray of sunshine that makes up for it all. I recommend Marilu's for the Guatemalan tamales, those are actually good. Not the bread. And not the Mexican tamales. The Guatemalan ones!! Wrapped in banana leaves. BUT also, they do have the "torta de tamal" which is a ridiculous Mexican creation. Basically a tamale sandwich. Double the carbs, but double the yum. Give that a try if you choose to stop by. Otherwise, you can get your pan dulce elsewhere at a better price and quality level. Just my very tried and true, honest opinion. NOTE: I noticed most of the 5 star reviews were from people that purchased a cake from them. Very interesting. Maybe the more you stop in to spend, the better the treatment. As far as the regulars that stop by for some bread here and there, they know they'll be back around so why be extra nice? lol, just an observation. I have never purchased a cake from them, I go to Rossmoor, Tropicana, or Porto's for that. But maybe that's something they won't disappoint at. Give that a try! read more

Pupusas were so tasty. They were full of loroco which is awesome because many places skimp on it. Lupita took our order and was patient as we were deciding on what to order. Nadia brought us our order and was so sweet and made sure we were happy. Restaurant is very clean including entrance, dining area and restroom. read more

Recently purchased a tres leches cake for my mom's birthday and it was delicious. Not overly milky, the center was a delicious light strawberry filling and the frosting was nice and light too. Overall a great cake and I'll definitely be back. I'd also like to add that the staff is very friendly, helpful and accommodating. Even with a last minute request, they were open to making it happen. read more

Marilus Bakery - Tres Leches with almonds on the side. **Butterflies not included** - Bakeries Near Me - Long Beach, California

This bakery saved me from a jam . Last week was my in-laws 40th anniversary and we decided to have a small family gathering ( in the back yard and it was only 8 of us we * covid era ) and needed a cake last min .I had to find a place that could make me a cake on Sunday afternoon so I turned to Yelp and they didn't fail. My cake came out amazing, I got great value, Courteous service, and a tasty cake, all in one day to another day notice . My in-laws loved it and I got to be the hero of the family for once . Would recommend this panaderia for all your Hispanic needs ! read more

Authentic? Yes! Here we gooooo... Guatemalan Tamales (pork)- delicious! Enough sauce and pork at $2.75 each. Champurradas- these Guatemalan crispy cookies were different than my usual but good. Dip these puppies in coffee and it's on! Capirotada (bread pudding)- this banana dessert is one of my favorites and Marilus' recipe is delectable! Wooooow! Customer service was quite delightful but they don't take phone orders, at this point in our lives, it would be nice to allow them. read more
