Bakery Makel

A cute little latino bakery tucked away in a new strip mall on Drew St. I would haved to have tried the empanadas but unfortunately I was there to late in the day. I did however purchased a small tres leche, and a Key lime pie which were ok.

The food was pretty good, but there is no seating. There is three bar stools, but it's kinda awkward. The eclair was really good. The service was average. I wouldn't make the drive to this place, but would eat it if I'm near.

Good cuban selection of patisseries, the guava cheese was very delicious . The cortadito was authentic and great flavor , cuban sandwiches was tasty , was a little dry though bas it was nice

Thanks to Rachel M, my wonderful wife and I tried out Bakery Makel yesterday. Well, truth be told, I first went alone in the early AM while I was running errands and then I brought my wife back together in the afternoon. Twice in one day!Bakery Makel is hidden in the back of a strip mall on the north side of Drew. I highly recommend navigating as it doesn't have the largest sign. In case you are wondering, Makel stands for the two owners, Mabel and Kelly. One of them is Nicaraguan hence the Latin influence. When I first entered, there were 10 people squeezed in this small but spotless and well lit establishment. The counter and register are to the left while there are stools for eating in or just waiting for your order to the right. Sarah was taking orders, filling pastry boxes and making coffee for all the customers. She was friendly and fast moving!The pastry display cases are beautiful and mouth watering. On the left are guava, cheese and guava and cheese pastries as well as guava and cheese bread! In addition, they have many different kinds of empanadas which are all quite large. My wonderful wife tried the steak and jalapeño empanada and she loved it! It was very generous and flavorful!To the right are more sweet pastries of many varieties. They even have pavlova! I stuck with guava and cheese pastries to go which turned out to be very flaky and delicious!We of course ordered a sweet colada which had an amazing crema and was very excellent tasting! I know this is designed to be shared among 5 or 6 people but I can handle one by myself as can my wife. Caffeine and sugar are good things on a lazy Saturday! I highly recommend Bakery Makel and we can't wait to return!

The Cuban and pork bowl are very greasy and have a lot of large chunks of fat throughout. Hardly edible and makes you sick to your stomach if you try to eat it. Feeling very nauseous and gross after trying to eat just some of the sandwhich. Threw the bowl away. Just awful. I'm sure they have great pastry's, but stay away from the food!!

Holy moly, this place is a frickin 10/10 every time. I always get the Latin bowl with pork and it SLAPS. So incredibly flavorful and juicy. I just tried the arroz con leche and it's the best I've ever had. I'm gluten free now but I've had their guava pastries and empanadas in the past and all so phenomenal. Would recommend this place 100 times over. Some of the best Spanish food I've ever had. And I use to live in Miami so that's saying a lot!!!

Don't underestimate this small bakery in this unassuming shopping plaza. My go-to is their Cubanos *chef's kiss* just so flavorful and moist! The best Cubano I've ever had around here. Their empanadas are also soooo good. Flaky on the outside, a little fluffy in the breading inside, and the meat fillings are on point! Just be aware that it can get crowded during the lunch rush so it may take a while to get your order, but it's so worth the wait! There are so many other things I want to try since they have a lot of options in their display case. Will be a back!

This is a hidden gem of a bakery that you won't want to miss. It is a small bakery but packs a punch with amazing fresh and flavorful food.

The food is incredibly delicious! The Cuban sandwich is the best I've had this far. Great pastry selection. Looks like a family run business yet the customer service is excellent. Prices are great. Plenty of parking highly recommend. Place is clean and cozy only seats like 4 people but it's a must stop.

Everything here was absolutely delicious. I love their café con Leche!! Their pastries were amazing as well
