Seniorita bread
Tiffany T.

I've had Starbread before in my hometown and was super excited to introduce my friends to it when we saw a spot in Pacifica. Came around 5:45pm on a Saturday and it was pretty empty as expected. There weren't many pastries left (which is expected since this place is super yummy and we can late in the day). With that said, we ordered our 5pc of seniorita bread and it came out piping hot within a few minutes. This spot doesn't have any seating so it's just grab and go. We ate our bread in the car and finished within 5 minutes. I will note that I think the batch I got was a bit on the soggy side and didn't really hold its shape. Didn't impact taste, but I do wish it was a bit more "sturdy". Will come again when I'm in the area!

SO ADDICTING

My coworker brought these into the office and they're so good! I'm not sure what it is but I downed 3 of them before I realized

Always a yummy soft treat when visiting Pacifica. Used to have better deals with the more you buy, but now it's all the same. Never tried anything else there except for the starbread, so hope they can stay in business just selling those.

Fluffy sweet buttery bread Authentic unenthusiastic customer service Reasonable prices for high quality items A flavorful bread that will keep you coming back!

Starbread's señorita bread is always amazing. Hot and fresh, buttery sweet gooey soft. Get a bigger box than you think because they go down fast, and then sit there like a fat warm lump of sticky regret in your carb coma after. I like showing up at potlucks and parties with a box - it'll be the first to go, especially because it's so good warm. This is a convenient location when going to the beach! Grab some coffee from starbucks and a box of starbread, and go enjoy the breezy Pacifica/HMB sand. They also sell various filipino snacks and desserts here. I tried the empanadas. The chicken/pork/beef seemed to have a similar savory seasoning and bits of carrot/corn/peas, and the ground meat. They were good, BUT they were insanely salty the day I tried them (all 3 fillings). Hoping it was just an off day because the flavors were good otherwise. The señorita bread takes a few minutes but it's totally worth the wait when they hand you that heavy warm box. Remember that the oily sugary filling seeps out a bit, so put your cardboard box in a bag or under something washable, rather than directly on the floor of your car or on the seat.

One of our favorite cheap eats - Starbread's Seniorita bread! There's really nothing like it - it's a simple little roll that's buttery and lightly sweetened. They're always fresh when I order them and they should be enjoyed right when you get them! The shop itself is small and organized, they had plenty of other traditional filipino sweets like pastilla de leche, malasadas, ube hopia, they even sell lumpia. But if you're only getting a few things to try - make sure you at least get a box of their seniorita bread as that's their specialty, and for good reason!

Been a fan for a long time. Still a fan! Those senorita breads are honestly a staple. Whether you come to buy them for potluck, treat, or just for your own pleasure, you know it's good for all occasion! Once you order they come out in literally two minutes and they come out hot! I ordered 30 pieces for $18, which is not a bad deal at all comparing to other places. Love that they still have other locations still open. Definitely try any of these locations you have not yet !

The Senorita Bread!
Elisa H.

10 years ago my youngest son played on a travel baseball team with a boy who lived near a Starbread Bakery. When we had early morning games, the boy's family would bring Seniorita Bread from Starbread. It was an amazing Summer. We won multiple championship trophies had the most Incredible coaches epic team swimming parties and our families bonded well, watching our kids thrive, doing what they loved the most. It still would have been a great Summer without the Senorita bread, but like the Carly Rae Jepsun song, "Call Me Maybe" these rbings take me back to the Halcyon Summer of 2012. Today I took my oldest son to the beach in Pacifica and we were both starving! In a fortuitous twist of fate, I looked up to see the Starbread sign. Could it be? It was the Senorita Bread Mecca! ..., or at least one of tge Starbread Bakeries... and they had a full menu of sweet and savory pastries and Alex's favorite food, lumpia. Alex was a little agitated and antsy, grabbing at a cardboard flower that was sticking out of a plant and ripped it up... The sweet girl behind the counter gave us such great service and when I commented on Alex's cut of his tbumb, she sweetly included two band aids with our order. This was patient and spectacular customer service! Our order was as follows: , five lumpia, 20 Seniorita Bread, a chicken and a beef empensda and a ham and cheese pastry. I got one bite of the chicken empenada, one lumpia and four glorious pillowy, yeasty, sweet and buttery Senioritas. Everything was fantastic, but Starbread is all about the Senorita Bread,. Alex was sooo happy and we drove him back home witb Seniorita Bread for his friends. They taste just as delicious without the championship baseball season. Sometimes, a smell or a song, or a taste can take you back. It turns out, sometimes, you can go home again. Go get yourself some Seniorita Bread, more than you tbink you and your group need, and create an amazing Summer memory for yourself!

40pcs of señorita bread
Brittany C.

Came about 25 minutes before closing and got lucky to still be able to get 40pcs of the senorita bread. Fresh out the oven is the best! We also got some pork and chicken lumpia. Very bland to me but drown it in sauce and it's good! Two people working and they had good customer service.

Starbread from King Drive location. Thumbs down.

See all

Oh em gee. I was able to try them at a closer location, thanks to the San Mateo County inviting…read morethem to have a pop-up at Sawyer Camp. I wanted everything on their menu, but only allowed a sausage roll and a minced beef pie. They had other savory pies like chicken pot pie, mushroom and Swiss, and breakfast pies. You honestly can't go wrong with any of them. If they happened to have the sausage rolls, get them. But if I'm in line behind you and you take the last sausage roll, I will fight you for it. The spicy one was to die for. It's not too spicy, it's like those spicy Italian sausage. Very flaky, not too heavy, but they don't skimp out on the meat, so you will be full. I absolutely loved the fennel seeds in the sausage! I just don't know how to be full, so i tried their pie too. While the minced beef pie was good, it wasn't as great as the sausage roll. This is a piece I am willing to trek all the way down the 1 for.

Pies are excellent, great flavor and fun variety. They change the menu nearly by the hour, whatever…read moreis hot at the time is what is available, which is fun for diversity but a bit of a bummer if you are looking forward to having something again--it may not be there. Limited selection close to opening on a Sunday, which feels odd considering you would expect that to be a busier day/time for them, but the west coast, and a small coastal town specifically, moves slow. Overall, when there is a good selection of sweets, savories, and sausage roll, this is an awesome spot. Coffee is ok, depends on the barista that day. They have acai as an option as well if pie isn't your thing, the granola tastes homemade. View and vibe inside can't be beat.

I really loved this place!…read more Came for a weekend away and walked by this little gem. It's a super cute little coffee shop that has some adorable vintage decorations. They even have some toys for the kids to play... I love a kid friendly place! We ordered several coffees including a drip, zebra latte, lavender latte and toasted Marshmallow one, a Mexican coffee and even a hot chocolate for the kiddos (sorry I forgot the actual names of the drinks lol). seriously all of them tastes amazing!!!! Great quality coffee!! We even ordered some breakfast sandwiches (those are just decent) but the apple fritter was delicious! Also the prices are extremely fair! The guy behind the register was maybe one of the friendliest workers I talked too that entire weekend in Pacifica. Great kid, super personable! My only complaint is that they don't have a location near my house!!!! This would definitely be my new coffee shot! Definitely grab yourself a cup of coffee when you're in town!!!

Loved that this place is super walkable from the hotel we stayed at, which made it an easy stop…read more When you walk in, it has a nice open layout and even an upstairs area so it feels a bit more spacious than your typical coffee spot. It looked like there was just one person handling both the cashier and drink orders, but he managed everything really smoothly. I ordered a matcha latte with oat milk and honey and when he finished it, he realized he accidentally made it with vanilla syrup instead. Without hesitation, he remade it right away and even offered me the first one for free, which I thought was really kind and showed great customer service. The matcha itself was decent but it wasn't nothing mind blowing but definitely good enough to enjoy and sip on. It had a nice balance and wasn't overly sweet, which I appreciated. What really stood out more than anything was the service. The guy was friendly, professional, and genuinely attentive, which made the experience better overall. If you're looking for a quick matcha fix in a convenient location with solid service, this is a good spot to check out!

Decent selection here at this Hong Kong bakery they have things ranging from egg tarts to paper…read morewrapped sponge cakes to Hong Kong style pineapple buns. It's really one of the only Chinese style bakeries around the area so this is the one I typically would go to. The baked goods are decent. It's not any of the best I've ever had but it does satisfy the cravings. They also serve milk tea there or you can also ask for Yin Yang, which is 50% coffee and 50% milk tea. The service is OK the staff there collect your money and get you on your way so really nothing to complain about there. The bake shop and ambience is that of a typical Chinese style bakery you walk in and you grab your tray along with the tongs and you pick out the specific pastries that you want, and you put it on the plate and give it to the staff person at the front near the counter. That's also where you can get your egg tarts and other type of goods such as the more fresh pastries with meat in inside like a cha siew bao. If you pay with cash is cheaper as I believe they charge a surcharge when you pay with credit card. Parking is easy because it is just part of the big plaza area with plenty of parking.

New Horizons Bakery is a pretty standard, no-frills Asian bakery. Nothing here is going to blow you…read moreaway, but it does the job well, especially if you're looking for something quick and affordable. I picked up the hot dog buns, which come in boxes of 8 and are really inexpensive, solid value for what you get. The inside looks a bit worn down and could use some updating, but that didn't really matter to me. The service was quick and straightforward, and the owner was efficient and polite, which is honestly all you need for a bakery like this. Overall, the food is solid, just not something I'd go out of my way for. But if you're nearby and want a fast, inexpensive bakery item without any fuss, this place is reliable and worth stopping by.
