We really enjoyed this little gem. If you want affordable good food, check this place out! We got the Cuban sandwiches with all of the fixings and they were a good size and made well. The star of the show is their sponge cakes! Grab a couple of the cone shaped ones too. For those who aren't familiar with Cuban food & desserts, don't worry - the ladies at the front are SO nice and helpful. While you are here, grab an espresso too - Top notch read more

Terrible costumer service!!!! They do not open on time, it's pouring rain and we were at least 4 people waiting for coffee and breakfast at 5:30 am to continue ahead with the day. The cook was inside and let me know they opened at 5:30 am but the servers came in late and do not care for their costumers at all. Didn't apologize or open right away, they let us standing there saying "it's reining ya tú sabes" read more

Pinecrest Bakery - It is 5:45 am , we have being waiting at least 20 min because they open at 5:30 am. Disrespectful servers we left - Bakeries Near Me - Key Largo, Florida

Stumbled on this place in Key Largo on vacation while looking for pastries but turned out ordering sandwiches. Even though they were out of turkey as warned, the Monte Cristo was delicious and filling. The sandwiches are pretty big here and pricing is good for the keys. Ordered the cubano, which was very good but just couldn't eat all of it. Will order from here again but planning on splitting my sandwich next time unless I need leftovers for lunch the next day. read more

Pinecrest is fine. The tequeño (a cheese stick wrapped in dough and baked) was fine and served as a good, quick snack. I wasn't a big fan of the spinach croqueta because it was a bit soggy. Service comes with a small side of attitude. The outdoor dining area is quite nice. read more

Best Cuban sandwich and pastries ever!! Their breakfast and coffee is good too. We love this place! read more

For late night snacking this spot was the perfect deliverance. I always get confused when I see things that look familiar but know they won't be as they seem since it has different titles in Spanish. Although everything looked yummy knowing it was Cuban fare I opted to go with what I knew was certain. The fruit tart was delish with coconut shavings on top and the guava pastry was great as well. Two hot drinks a cocoa and a coffee with the 2 pastries was under $10 which I consider reasonable. Wish they add an ice cream section tho! Yeah, a girl can dream! read more

We really liked this place :) My husband is Peruvian and he was very impressed. nice employees, place was clean, they handled a busy morning well. Wasn't ideal for folks with allergies, no/few gluten free options, diary free, etc. But if you're looking for hardy delicious bakery goods without the need for dietary modifications you'll love it here :) read more

Staff are so RUDE!!!!! We are here on vacation and everyone has been so nice and pleasant. The staff at pine crest bakery are questionable. If you require masks then you need to provide them. Bye Felicia. And their logo looks like a.... never mind read more

Yum yum & yum. Recently stopped with a family of 5 to pick up some breakfast & sweets. Everyone was happy from the 7 year old on up. So many choices of fresh ham & cheese on flakey pastry & pastrys. read more

I arrived there at 8:30 pm and they said it was closed. But in the Google shows they close at 9 pm.

Just moving to Key Largo. And we have been looking forward to trying Pinecrest! Wow how rude can people be?? I have been in the service industry for 40 years! And if I conducted myself this way towards my customers I would not have kept my job. Maybe label the food so people don't have to ask questions and can just shout out the request. And we still tipped after getting screamed at. Food was tasty. read more

Passed by this weekend and made a special trip 4:30 am Monday morning to get pastries and coffee for our trip home BUT not open. Please take the open 24 hours lighted sign out of the window- or at least turn it off! I'd say the same for the lighted sign at the street. read more

10 STARS!!! I love this hopping, lively Cuban bakery! I will make sure this is always a stop when I am in The Keys. The people are lovely and the food is fresh and the ESPRESSO is like sweet nectar for my soul. And breakfast portions are totally sharable. I ordered the croissant egg, ham and cheese sandwich. It was bigger than my face! Definitely gotta hold it with both hands. Fabulous! read more

Not as expected. They got my order wrong. Ordered the shredded beef empanadas, I pointed at the sign for the special but got ground beef empanadas. Than when I told them all they said was oh sorry. And that if I wanted the picture I had to buy it ...it was already $5 for the ones I don't even want..... coffee was $4 not as good as other places. Whole Flan was good, the single slice flan has a cheese cake bottom. read more

This is the best cup of coffee I've had in forever. Cafe con leche for the win. It's strong and flavorful and not too sweet. read more

For veg people there is hardly anything good to eat. In sweets Tiramisu also tasted very different (not in a good way)

I purchased 2 eclairs and a slice of chocolate cake. They looked delicious but the eclairs were dry and the chocolate cake tased like vegetable shortening. Highly disappointed. read more

We stopped in a few days ago to stock up on a few desserts. We got pumpkin cheesecake which was creamy and very tasty. The eclair was one of my favorites. The filling is Boston creme like but dense and not too sweet. The best was the flan cheesecake. Omg flan and cheesecake, please! Luckily we are from Illinois. I'd be putting on some serious weight. They are open 24 hours. We were there about 9pm. Still a great selection and no wait time. read more

Super friendly staff. Open all the time. And we couldn't get enough. We had pastelitos and coladas all three morning we stayed in key largo. The savory ones were very good; the guava cheese was better. Got one of each the first day, multiples there after. Will absolutely visit any times we're in the Keys!! read more

This is my favorite bakery in the Keys. We stop on our way down to Key West, and the way back. They even have a drive through window! The cuatro leches is soooo good, and the coffee strong. read more

Great food and coffee. I had the sausage and cheese croissant and it was very good. They have a great selection of pastries.

Super nice 24 hours place! Plenty of space inside and outside! Fast nice service, prices are very reasonable for the fancy items that they sell! Special occasion cakes and wine/champ They get very busy early in the morning and lunch!!! I was hungry and got most delicious croissant cuban pressed sandwich! They also have fresh Cuban bread! read more

Pinecrest Bakery - Outside tiki - Bakeries Near Me - Key Largo, Florida

Exactly What key largo was missing, a good Cuban bakery. Let's start with Cuban sandwich combo. Dear Lord this was big enough to feed a family of 4, and DELICIOUS! The fries as always did not let me down, curly spiced mouth tingly yumminess. The ham croquetas de casa were great, I was hesitant to try them since I had a bad experience at Pinecrest south beach. And now to the show stopper cappuccino dulce. W O W. Took me back to being at abuelas house when I was 10. Unfortunately not everything in life is perfect,the only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because the Cafe con leche tasted a little weird and it was cold. I love coffee and I threw it away after only 3 sips. I'll definitely be stopping here from now on, during future trips. However, I'll skip the coffee. read more

Breakfast Review Time: Pinecrest Bakery (Key Largo, Fl) When we come to the Keys, I'm always on the hunt for cafe con leche for breakfast. The pictures on Yelp steered me to this little bakery/sandwich shop. I can't wait to see what they have to offer? Welcome to your died and gone to heaven of sweet treats, which everything is made in house. They even bake in house large loafs of French bread, which you can buy. Now don't be in a hurry to get in and out of this place, but I promise you it is worth your wait. The cafe con leche was strong and super flavorful. The fresh squeezed orange juice, literally pressed right in front of your face, was perfection. These sweet little mini croissant sandwiches were absolutely amazing. It had a sweet glaze on top with ham and cheese, but the amazing thing was the bottom layer of croissant was stuffed with ground beef! My beef empanada was fabulous and seasoned perfectly. He got the ham, chorizo, and cheese empanada, which was also good, but the beef has it beat. For dessert, we tried the flan and the chocolate eclair. The flan seemed to be really curdled, but still over all had great flavor. His chocolate eclair was amazingly decadent! Overall review: service 3/5 (super slow, but well worth the wait) and food (4.5/5) - curdled flan, best still very tasty)...this place is amazing...coming back for lunch tomorrow for sandwiches and more sweet treats!!! read more

Keep driving, you aren't missing anything After a Larry David-like service experience, we had to interrupt their dance session and the lady didn't understand a word of English, they had nerve to ask for a tip. When we got our pastries home they were awful. Poor flavor, poor texture, just bad. Even my kids, who like any cake, said they were bad. Not sure who thought these recipes are worth creating a business, but think they have non discerning customers You're better off going to Winn Dixie or Publix or get an orange. Just keep on driving. read more

Excellent service and food. I really would like for them to be open later at night since in the keys everything close early.

Efficiency and ability to handle the volume of customers is something worth looking at. All I wanted was a cup of cafe con leche, yet there's a line that barely moved for 15 minutes. I chose to leave and I still had about 10-12 more customers in front of me and I wasn't the only one that left. You run the risk of customers not returning or finding somewhere else to grab a quick coffee and a bite to eat. Please consider looking at how you operate especially during the hours you know are busy. read more

As a local, I had to do a double take visiting Pinecrest Bakery this morning. Thought I made a wrong turn and ended up in Little Havana. No one working spoke English. One of the girls waited on a man in line behind me because he spoke Spanish to her! I ordered two items and the girl waiting on me could not to understand!?! I thanked her for the items she packaged and she never smiled or thanked me. Service was simply rude and VERY UN Keys like. If I wanted to be treated rudely, I would have driven to Miami. That said, the deserts were very tasty. However, given the Miami attitude and lack of English language, I probably won't be back. read more

extremely RUDE service. I literally stood in line for 20 minutes to be told by the server she wound NOT help me - someone else would. Than that person said No -it's not her job. When I complained, they told me to be quiEr. I'm disgusted. Obnoxious!!!!! This is NOT what the Florida Keys ever was and should not be read more

This location is very convenient in Key Largo, it's open 24 hrs and has a drive through. It's nice inside and the staff is nice. Unfortunately the items we ordered were not even warm and definitely not fresh. We had pastel de carne, baked ham and cheese empanada, cheese croqueta and ham croqueta de la casa. None of these were near fresh and I had to ask them to microwave them. read more

Delicious!! Incredible value and everything is sooo good! Went twice in 2 days. Love the fired spinach empanadas, guava turnovers, spinach croquettes and espresso. Honestly everything is awesome Highly recommend! read more

Stopped by Pinecrest Bakery for a coffee and pastry while in Tavernier, FL. They offer a wide variety of Cuban pastries, cakes, breakfast sandwiches, etc. We got a couple empanadas, croquettes, little pastry sandwiches, guava and cream cheese pastries, and coffee. Everything was delicious. The guava and cream cheese pastry was the best; and the coffees were so good. The chicken empanadas were the only things we weren't too fond of, they were dry. Great food and great prices. read more

A must for just coming into the keys, Cuban sandwiches/small bites/ desserts and con leche that is the best!
