La Popular

Excellent traditional Latin bakery. I'm from around the area and have always loved the great value bakery spots such as La Popular. There's a certain nostalgia for bakeries like these in my heart. There is no indoor seating, it's more of a grab'n-pay'n-go type of spot. Nevertheless it's still a welcoming bakery and was very easy to order and pay.I was impressed to see all their selection when I walked in. The workers are bilingual and were very friendly. I tried a few conchas, azúcar galletas rosa, chocolate también, and other sweet bread de plátano. The bakery has great mixture of real sweet cookies/sweet bread and others with a more subtlety sweet flavor.My family and I loved our picks and will for sure return. We normally warm up the sweet bread a bit and eat them with milk. This bakery was great!

So with the different people in there some upcharge I guess they are getting no tips. Then the laziness in this place. Got 2 cookies and 2 danish. Alright the first day but the next day they got hard. The cookie could have cut someone and both did not soften up by way of the micro. Told the girl about it no response. Next time same person 2 empanadas looked like something was wrong thought it was the lighting nope the 2 spots were mold but the worst part was taking them apart and all the mold that was between them was messed up so chunked them on the street. If you go and see that some of the trays are kinda empty don't buy from that tray. They are supposed to rotate out the older ones but the just restock without rotating the old. Bartenders do it but I guess bakeries don't. I stopped going after that second time, I know get my cookies from Wendy's 5 for 5 dollars. I paid 3 for mold plus a dollar tip lol.

Pastry place with variety! Ale was working when I came in and was patient with me as I looked at the delectable treats. Great bread! Visit for great prices and delicious treat!

Love this place authentic Panadería in sweetest little old gal owns the place delicious across-the-board with great selections. Is my first go to bakery in the city

Went to this bakery since it was closer to us when downtown SA. They had plenty of bread. So we got several pieces of bread, prices were 2 for $1. I guess prices went up on sweet bread. Upon tasting the bread, it was old and hard. None of the pieces were fresh, mind you we went about 4pm. We had to throw the bag of worthless $12 bread !

Came to visit San Antonio from NC and was so excited to see a traditional Mexican bakery up the street from my AirB&B. Everything was really delicious, amazingly priced, and exactly what I was looking for! This place reminded me of my hometown in Southern California. Worth the visit!

This place was not worth the visit. I had no idea the previous bakery closed and was converted to a La Popular bakery. Flys were inside the bread and cookie displays?

Great bakery! It's In an old building and Sometimes has murals painted on it. Good customer service. Fresh bread.

Back in the days the bread was really good. The quality taste is poor plus you can't pre order anymore. Some of the locations have really bad service.
