La Purisima Bakery 2

Ok so my good buddy Joe would pick me up these tortillas several months back for like $4, now $6. They were so good. He said they became to expensive to pick up he has a large family. So not here it's just me, had been craving those flipping tortillas. They are so good you can just heat them & eat them. Don't do like I do put butter & honey on them . Thank you Jesus they gave my taste buds new life. Ok let's get to today, so my friend gave me the name he lives in Avondale, I'm in central Phoenix. I Yelp the name, what to my wandering eyes appeared they have a location like minutes from my crib. Shut the front door, I'm getting my tortillas. But he didn't tell me it was a beautiful Mexican bakery. They have burritos, tamales, tortillas, Mexican cookies, bread, and cake.The green chili burrito OMG $5 bucks little but mighty flavor. I got a couple deserts very good. I'm stopping tomorrow I now have to try the red burrito & I'm curious about their Tamales. I haven't found any good tamales in a while. Gabby behind counter cool and funny.

This was my first time here. I've had stuff from the other location on Glendale Ave. Service is super friendly. Tbh I didn't know what everything was called, but I don't speak a lot of Spanish. However they do speak English so y'all will get by just fine. They seem to be happy working there too because they were smiling a lot with everyone. They work pretty fast as well, so even if the line looks a little long, it moves quickly. It looked pretty clean in there. They don't use the same trays for people's orders, and they wrap each item that could get messy (frosted donut/cheesecake, etc) in separate paper so they don't smear on the bag or anything. (It's not like some fast food places where it's just thrown in the bag). Get the burritos. The green chile one is my fave. It has pork and potatoes and is amazing any time of day. Not too salty, the tortilla is perfect and the burrito as a whole is full of flavor. My big recommendation with that is buy yourself at least 2. One for now and another for later, or 2 for now if you have a big appetite. I don't come here a lot bc I don't want to veer too much off my regular diet, but I also got cheesecake, a few donuts, sugar cookies and a couple of pig cookies. The cheesecake is not that sweet, but has a good texture. I loved it when I added my homemade salted caramel to it. The portion is a good size too. Because it's less sweet, if you eat it without anything added, it would be a first for me to say it's "breakfast cheesecake" but I would definitely eat it again. Kiddos loved the donuts. Zero complaints from them. The mini-mini was talking about how great it was with the flavors/texture. The bigger mini was all about eating quickly. They did share a bite with each other which was sweet. The pig cookies are like soft gingerbread with less gingery flavor. They are a great way to start a day with a cup of coffee or milk or whatever. They aren't too sweet and they are soft, not chewy. No pictures bc I was in too much of a hurry to eat but I really liked it. Definitely will come back.

It you want a selection of breads make sure you come early in the day. We came later in the afternoon and the selection was slim but we're still very good for what was left. However, we mainly came for the tortillas which we took back home and were just as delicious! The $5 red or green burrito was decent but too small to be worth the cost as it's the size of a soft taco and only had a little bit of diced potatoes along with the meat.

I am sad I have to wait to go back to get their Rosca de Reyes bread. I should've got the biggest size they had and a mini one. It was the best bread I've had. The bread was flavorful and soft. We also got concha's, jello domes and other types of pan. The prices were also very reasonable. The bakery was pretty busy when we went on a Sunday morning. This place also makes fresh tortillas. It's a nice local bakery we'd love to visit again when we are in the area.

Good tamales. Admirable amount of filling and they use a good amount of lard in their corn base. Their tortillas are great too.

Omgeee, best conchas AKA pan de huevo I have ever had!! So fluffy and soft and moist just wow! The Glendale location has impeccable service. The ambiance is nothing fancy but this is a classic Mexican bakery with fresh homemade staples made with love!

Went to the other branch on my last trip to Phoenix and couldn't leave this time without getting some more Mexican baked stuff.Much smaller outlet then the original store but definitely the same good quality product!No lines at all, so the person working there was able to describe everything we wanted to know about.Peach Empanada was amazing! Filling was not too sweet, and kinda felt too little at one point, but the crust totally made up for it! Flaky and suddenly sweet and went really well with the filling. I would totally be able to have five at a time!Bigotes (like to concha but little more dense and had the pink koncha topping swirled inside, and powdered sugar on top) was SO GOOD! It looks like a croissant but it was actually a bread. Very distinct flavor and so so good and addictive! Super soft Conchas! So fresh and light and airy as well. Very easy to devour in under a minute, haha. Flan was soft and smooth and sweet as last time. No sugary sweet and just the right amount of caramel flavor and overall a beautiful one.Husband also got the square pastry with coconut on top and a dollop of vanilla pudding in the middle. He really loved it but I wasn't too much of a fan because of the coconut and pastry going on.

If you're into Mexican sweet bread try this place out! You will be welcomed by the sweetest ladies. And feast your eyes on what they offer! I found this ti be the best place to get great sweet bread and cookies. Always so fresh. I'm trying the tamales today, so I'll have to keep you posted on that. So many different flavors of empanadas. Don't let the humble ambiance fool you. This place is known for its authentic flavors. The original location is in Glendale. So glad they opened this one on the east side of town. They will offer menudo sometime in January. Check it out!

Grabbed a couple of snacks here after my sister and her friend saw an ad on Instagram. Delicious food and baked goods. Quick service and cute displays of all their snacks. Would love to come back

Delicious and fresh empanadas and bread!! Tamales were also great! My favorite was the bolillo bread. Yum.
