Yay for Yelp, was in Sunnyvale for a salon appt but wanted goodies for a party- would never have found this tucked away mini mall w out Yelp. Huge selection Pan Dulce WAY fresher tasting than the places near my house and only 90 cents to $1.50 each for most things! Such a bargain!! I mean for real tho- how come Starbucks charges like 3 bucks for crappy bland dry pastries when a heavenly concha is less than a dollar ?! Also got some tamales & cornbread for dinner. Gal at the counter was very friendly, Sure her Ingles was not great - but provided an opportunity for me to utilize my rusty Español. Will definitely be back, next time want to try elote y mangonada or smoothies read more

Te amo Ruby's Pan Dulce :-) What a great find! I don't even remember how I stumbled onto it, but I'm so glad I did. I honestly haven't had Pan this good since I was a little kid. I already knew what I wanted as soon as I walked in. The little pig pan! They look like & are usually referred to as gingerbread pigs, but alas, they have no gingerbread in them whatsoever. Usually at other places I have been to, they are dry & crumbly. However, they aren't usually moist to begin with. The piggies here are really good though, and not overly dry at all. This is also true for the jelly roll cake as well; they are usually dry. Not at Ruby's though ;-) One of my favorites, and a standout for me was the coconut cake. WOWWW!!!! As soon as I took a bite of that cake, it messed me all up. I had to just take a break and savor it. It was like I just shut the rest of the world off & had an out of body experience. It was like I was transported back to the Last Supper & I was one of Jesus' disciples & this was the dessert course...a cake made from his beard & hair of lambswool. Yup! it was that good. They also make fresh juices there as well. I was actually feeling brave & tried the Vampiro juice; a mixture of beets, carrots, celery & orange. It was ok, but just not for me. I am not a beet fan at all. They always have a dirt like flavor to them & that is exactly what I kept picking up while I was drinking it. Other than that, the hints of orange & carrot that I had picked up were really good. I just wish it had a stronger carrot flavor. I HIGHLY recommend Ruby's Pan Dulce. The staff is really friendly & helpful; the place is very well kept & it's moderately priced. read more

TLDR: delicious, fresh bread, GO. HERE. Had to go in to work early and had a craving for pan dulce. I came in as soon as they had opened, and once you pull up in the parking lot you can smell bread being baked! The only thing that I found weird was when looking at the case of breads, there weren't any tongs near the serving trays so I ended up just using wax paper to grab my bread. It wasn't until I got in line to pay that I noticed there were tongs by the register. Suggestion: put the tongs by the serving trays?? Ended up only buying a pink strawberry jelly roll (nino envuelto) and an empanada for $2.75. I've had pan dulce before, but NOTHING like this! The strawberry jelly roll was dense, almost like a pound cake. Perfectly sweet and just the right amount of jelly. The empanada was also delicious-- flaky, sugary outside with a creamy custard inside. Definitely will be back to try all the other yummy pastries! read more

It would be great if the items in the store were labeled so first timers know what they are buying. It can be labeled in Spanish, then I can use my phone to translate it - it doesn't have to be labeled in English. But there's no labels at all. Allergens are also not labeled. There is a sign saying that some products contain nuts. When I asked the staff which products, there was a language barrier. Luckily another customer translated for me. For something as important as this, labeling products would be great. I would buy more if I know items are clearly labeled with allergens. Altogether items are not that fresh. I took one bite of a cream-filled pastry horn and threw it away. It tasted shelf-stable, dry, and not freshly-made. The display cabinets also need a good, thorough clean! read more

I chose this bakery bc of the excellent reviews on multiple websites. The cake they made for our baby's gender reveal party was beautiful! The design was exactly like the picture we showed them! The cake tasted delicious too! We got tres leches and my only issue is how runny it was. I've had this kind of cake before many times, and it didn't leak and this one leaked, a lot. There was way too much sweetened condensed milk in it. There was also communication issues with staff. My husband who speaks fluent Spanish told me couldn't even understand some of the things a young lady who works there was trying to say to him and he had to ask for someone who spoke English. Other than these few issues, the cake was beautiful and everyone we served it too enjoyed it! read more

Was really looking forward to trying this place based off the reviews on Yelp. Was not impressed at all, tasted like day old pan dulce. Sorry, not worth the drive to look for this place read more

The hubs and I were in a Sunnyvale for a friend's birthday, and I've had conchas on the mind lately. To my delight, Ruby's pan dulce was nearby from where we were . Although we've had a lot to eat at the party, I made a trip to Ruby's happen. When we arrived, I wasn't sure if they were open as you can't see through the windows because something was against them. When we walked in, you see shelves and shelves of bread and pastries, cakes and cookies, and even more shelves that were against the windows. Hence, why you can't see inside from the outside. We piled our tray with a bunch of stuff- pan dulce, cakes, cookies, and even more pan dulce. I mean, heck, they're only $.80! When I felt that we had enough, we went to the register to pay. Total came up to approximate $13 and some change. My husband pointed out to me that they sell MANGONADA. Probably one of my most favorite things in the world, but I've only ever had them from this place in Union city (see reviews). However, I was willing to give Ruby's a try. There were two ladies working the register; a young woman and an older woman. I don't think the older one liked it very much that I ordered the mangonada at the last second as she commented to the younger lady in Spanish. I raised an eyebrow at the younger lady and just stared on as the older lady tried to get her to engage. Good for her that she didn't, as she seemed to be searching my face for a response, perhaps because earlier, she'd spoken to me in Spanish, but I responded back in English. If you feel people are talking about you in another language, the chances are that they are! Just because I don't speak, it, it doesn't mean I don't understand it. No seamos groseros! But that isn't the reason for the two stars. I don't give a sh** if people talk about me. In truth, I just wasn't impressed with their goods. Everything we had was a bit dry and borderline stale. The cookies were like crumbling rocks. My son had two slices of marble cake; the second slice had raisins in them (where they even raisins??) The mangonada is one size only, and it is $8, but why?? The one scoop of mango sorbet/ice cream tasted artificially flavored, and it was on the slimy/runny but icy side, the diced mangoes used are frozen, but $8 would be understandable if they'd use fresh mangoes on this off-season. I'm not one to complain about food costs and usually hate when people do, but this business sure made a killing of my dollars from something I did not enjoy in the end. When we left the store, I kept looked back and found the two ladies staring back at me. What should have been a fun experience turned out to be an awkward one. The hubs observing my behavior as I kept looking over my shoulder then says, "So you do realize that the older chick wasn't very happy with you because you made her work, right?" Um, DUH. read more

Tamales! And everything dukce you expect from a panaderia. And tamales! Deserves your patronage. Takes credit cards.

So my friend had a meeting this morning at work and called and asked if I wanted him to pick up something on his way home. I said sure whatever. He said go on Yelp and look up something. So I did! I was not disappointed. The last few times we have gotten the breads with cream cheese and jam in them they have been dry or lack filling. I think I finally found a place that makes them right. I have no clue what the actual name is, I always tell him the bread thingys. Since he speaks spanish he knows the actual name and always gets what I'm looking for. Anyway the bread was super fresh and had the right amount of filling. He also surprised me with a cream filled cone, it was huge and a chocolate covered donut. I ate those later in the day. The cone filling was really good, it was a crunchy, sugary heaven sent pastry. The donut was still soft and fresh tasting even after sitting around for hours. I don't know price wise about the pastries here but the food was good. I will be back when in the area. read more

Ive been here and thought fresh bread, flan and tres leches cake was good. Butttttttttttt I just bought tres leches slice of cake and milk was sour and slimy. Dont understand the date system with the stickers, the container said saturday the 7th, and that cake was slimyy and sour. How long do they stay on shelf? Who knows i will not be buying anymore cake from them for sureeee. When i went back into store the clerk just took the cake and threw it away. No apology or anything like that. I was put off by cake and opted to get flan. Which was fine. Ive experienced bad customer service almost everytime I go there. Like they dont really care about the customers. The first time I brushed it off, thought maybe they were having a bad day. But it consistently been a bad customer service experience nearly every time read more

I went towards the end of the day and I was expecting the pan dulce to be a bit hard or stale. It was still soft and warm. 10/10 recommend coming here for your pan dulce. read more

I wish I had known about Ruby's Pan Dulce sooner. I dropped in for a visit today after finding this place on Yelp a few nights back. I had seen the picture of the yummy looking pastries, including one of my favorites: the churro! When the craving for sugary goodness got to be a bit too much, I couldn't stop myself from coming here. The parking lot is pretty spacious, and I made it to the plaza right before the lunch crowd was trickling in. For those who want a bit more clarification on the process of self-service here: Grab a pair of tongs and a lunch tray, and then layer the tray with the complimentary paper. Now you can choose from the pastry windows (there are also some pastries -- the churros, for example -- which are on the counter by the cashier) what you would like! After you've finished selecting what you want, bring it over to the cashier counter and the person will ring up your total. Overall, Ruby's Pan Dulce is a terrific, inexpensive, and well-stocked shop that I can't wait to return to! read more

The man and I had an early evening churro craving and took to the Yelp app to find the closest taqueria with churro's on the menu. Ruby's Pan Dulce came up and our curiosity was piqued. If you're into Dick's Bakery or Paris Baguette, get ready to love Ruby's. You can't beat the prices (6 items for under $6) & the bakery offers a dozen + varieties of cakes, cookies & other Mexican pastry items. We stuck to the yellow cake with pink sprinkles & got our grabby hands on the last two churros. I would recommend getting to Ruby's earlier in the day -- the girl at the counter mentioned to us that they have churros w/ caramel in the middle, but they run out fairly quickly. Like most bakeries it's best to get there early on to get the best & freshest items. The churros we got were tasty, but definitely getting on the stale side after being out (I'm assuming) all day. read more

Wasn't a fan of this place. It's expensive for what it is and found everything to be dried out compared to other bakeries I've been to in the past. I imagine this is one of the few raining older businesses in the area, but just wasn't for me. read more

Its been a while wince ive been in this neighborhood. Before the laundromat and market the taqueria was the only real draw. How things have changed. The taqueria has significantly upgraded...outside area, new paint decor, tvs, and they even got rid of the check cashing, send money to Latin America office in the back. Even crazier is they opened a bakery down the way! Got some fruit filled pastries for the road. Soft and flaky they were decently fresh. Good to see that the biz is doing well enough to open new frontiers read more

What is that smell? What is it? It's like I'm Scooby and my feet are lifted from the ground as I flutter my way to the heavenly smells of sugar and warmth. It can be none other than a bakery that's only a hop skip away from Ruby's Taqueria. As to not hit the door on my way in, I made sure to open it first before I slid through to the rows of delicious looking pastries. All very affordable that I wanted to grab one of each to have a sampling platter or perhaps dinner that night. The bakery's right in the back making and baking all day. There are churros for $3 both plain and dulce de leche filled. Everything else cost less than $2 from cookies to cakes to pastries. The only thing is, I don't think I like this type of pastry/baked good. It's a bit too dry and crumbly for me. I like my pastries chewy. Just taste preference, but oh my the smell! I could imagine it while I type this. I am now hungry. Great job Yelp. read more

Majority of the bakery items in the cases were priced: 3 for a dollar, 45 cents 85 cents, $1. They have empanadas, all sorts of buns, several basic cookies, few kinds of muffins, pastries, breads/loaves etc. Majority or all of the pastries in the bakery case had the names of the bakery items in Spanish. The service was super friendly, and alot of the locals shop here. Small/medium sized place next to a Taqueria. Located near a neighbourhood/housing track, in the parking lot with a sign that says Guadalajara Market. I spent $3 total. read more

We came by for some quick snacks as we were going to have a late dinner. It's in a cute little Mexican shopping center and seemed super authentic. The place was very clean inside and outside, and I got a little mom and pop vibe from this bakery. We got Mexican cornbread and oh man that was so delicious, moist, and I can really taste the corn in there. We also bought some churros and thought it was good as well (not as sugary as the Costco ones). Perfect mid-meal snack! read more

The best. That's what this place is. I'm so in love with their baked goods. Every time I'm at the taqueria (despite having eaten a burrito or tacos that are larger than my face) I have to make a pitstop here. Everything is fresh and delicious. Even if you aren't hungry, walk in to just smell the delicious fresh baked smell. If you haven't been here you are missing out. It is delicious AND affordable. Definitely a good way to satisfy a sweet tooth craving. read more

After a trip to Mexico, our world had opened up to the possibility of bakeries or panaderias on every street corner, offering a seemingly similar array of a multitude of breads. We stumbled upon one right in our neighborhood and we had to go crazy! This place is a cute, quaint, unpretentious place with old wooden cases stacked with trays of varieties of bread with old paper labels beneath each one with the Mexican name, the English equivalent, and the contents. Like: "Orejas, Ears; wheat, sugar... ". Mr Scrooge would agree he prices are more than reasonable! A solid serving of each bread-type is 80cents to 1.5$. Go splurge your taste buds! read more

I am pre-diabetic and recently fell in love with conchas (to be healthy, I stripe the sugar frosting off). I went in this place with only 1 dollar cash, but they take cc. So I figure I need to buy more. I bought 2 vanilla conchas, I empanada with pino, and three other Mexicano sweet pan things. The total came up to be less than $6. Too bad for my blood sugar level. So good for my sweet tooth. I promise myself I only go there when I am in the neighborhood. If any consolation, their things are not overly sweet, unlike American pastries, so I think I am okay. read more

My pregnant wife was craving churros so when I looked up places Ruby's Pan Dulce showed up as a Mexican Bakery. I called them to see if they have churros, to which the person on the phone said yes.

I told the person that we called and asked if they sold Churros and she acted like she had no memory of any phone call from 20 minutes prior. Wasted my time. read more

Great selections of bread, but some items I've never seen before and have no label. Most items I think we're 68 cents? The location isn't the best either. Felt like I was back home in alum rock, but it's not as bad oakland. When you enter the plaza, left is the taqueria, guadalajara market, then bakery which is hidden inside on the right. Not sure if this place beats the one on mckee, but I know I want to try their juices next time I come in. Cash and card accepted. Bread wasn't stale tasting or too sweet. They had Empanadas in flavors like pineapple, vanilla custard and I'm guessing sweet potato. Wish they had red guava though. Girl who rang me up made an effort or actually was polite to me even though I'm not mexican myself. Most of the time they're rude or just get what you want and go. No complaints here except label your breads please. read more

They make the most amazing Tres Leches cake (this is a 5 Star Cake!) and for a great price.
