Pasteleria Y Panaderia La Ideal

My boyfriend loves Tres Leches and I happened to be around the area and heard that this was a great Mexican bakery... and it sure freaking is! I got the Tres Leches and Niño Envuelto (Mexican jelly roll). I gave her a $20 and she gave me back $14.... So you mean I got two items for $6?! I usually spend about $8-11 for a Tres Leches, smaller size and okay tasting.Be sure to stop by for amazing Mexican pastries and be sure to bring cash! There's an ATM next door at the grocery.I will be back! :)

Hands down one of the very best panaderias I've ever been to. There were conchas of all sizes (the mini ones are so cute but also full of flavor - and at .40 each you can't beat it). They also had butter bread, sponge cake, fruit-filled mini "pies," puerquitos, many different flavors of gelatin, flan, cakes, and other baked goods that I have never seen at the panaderia near my house. One of my favorites was a dense cake with a thin chocolate coating. I considered taking a star off because they did not offer champurrado - but then we got home and tasted everything. Heavenly! Prices are extremely reasonable, from .40 to about 1.25. South Park is quite the drive to make if you don't live anywhere nearby - but if you're up for an adventure, and want to see what Georgetown looked like before it became Brooklyn, come here. Highly recommend it - and we drove from Federal Way! Pro tips: be prepared - it's CASH ONLY. Check out the warm case to the right of the display cases for the freshest goods right out of the oven. Be careful walking up to the front door - the cement is uneven!

The sweet bread is amazing!!!!!! Okay so it's tucked away in a parking lot towards the end. There is always parking but the parking lot is a little bit of a mess with no visible lines, extremely bumpy, and pot holes (be careful driving here in the rain). There is usually no wait, unless you arrive Saturday and Sunday before 10. I have also seen long wait on special occassions, like Dia De Reyes or Kings Day - January 6th, because they make delicious King's Bread. The bolillo (rolls) are also the best I have had in Seattle. This bakery reminds me of the typical bakery in LA County back home. They take cash only!!!!!!!! $14 gets you enough bread for 2 people to eat for a week :) The bread does not have prices posted. The most expensive bread will be to your right. You can catch a glimpse of the hard working bakers who work at all hours. They run out and restock immediately. Best Mexican sweet bread I have had in Seattle so far.

Pan Dulce heaven! This is an authentic panaderia that I drive 10 miles just to get my fix. They only accept cash.El pan esta para chuparse los dedos. Solo aceptan dinero en efectivo.

Best Mexican bread In town . Reminds me of the Mexican bakeries in LA. Try one of each you will be happy and your yummy will thank you .

Great mexican baked goods. Hard to find in Seattle and these are authentic. Only thing is that I wish they were more covid cautious. Any customer can grab the baked goods with tongs.

The custard is out of this world, insanely good! A bit smeared on the side of the box and I scooped it up with another bread; it'd be a shame to waste any bit of it! I could definitely order a side of it as a dip for any of these breads if I was feeling crazy. This bakery smells amazing. It's a small business but they have so much variety and all the favorites you're looking for! We panicked bc we saw the "cash only" sign at the end but they fortunately had a reader they set up quickly and we greatly appreciated it. This is a true gem of a bakery.

The haul minus the bolio. You have to get some bolios!!We're from out of state and I'm used to have a panaderia nearby at all times. While I stayed in Seattle I was looking for some pan dulce and this spot did not disappoint. We got lucky and some of the bread had just come out of the ovenGrateful for the bread y por mi gente.

The bakery had so many delicious selections! I loved the custard horn and quesadilla. Will definitely come again soon!

I am from LA and was visiting WA, I will say hands down this is very much the same and maybe even better than the pan dulce in LA Latino neighborhoods! The conchas and panes rellenos are soo good. I wish there was one out here in CA
