What Anthony Martinez doesn't like about El Gallo Bakery:
04/09/23 Easter Day! My wife and I have been coming here for over 30years. They have gone down hill! Ordered our bread last Tuesday paid for it and still had to wait a 1/2 hour with no line! Because they couldn’t find there receipt, but we had ours!They are very rude and disrespectful! But then again it’s that younger generation that don’t care! And they have the a audacity to have a tip jar!ha ha ha!!!They really look down on you when you don’t speak Spanish! People only come here because they grew up with it! As far as I’m concerned, it ain’t all that! everyone’s entitled to their own opinion! ??. What Peggy W likes about El Gallo Bakery:
The bakery smells so nice!! Bread is fresh and not to sweet. Decided to stop in because it smelled so delicious! Overall, I would say the bread is good but I prefer a different bakery personally. Service can be a little slow. Stopped by when there was no line and service was still slow and had to wait. Usually there is a long line because of its popularity. View all feedback.

The best sweet bread! You won’t find any bread that compares to what this place offers.

The rolls are absolutely delicious, so we make a special effort to go there just to enjoy them. The staff is also very friendly.

El Gallo Bakery is a fantastic spot to grab your Mexican bread. The best time to pick up your favorite pastries is in the early morning. Enjoy!

All right. You do not have prepacked, hot foods (e.g. rice, beans, carnitas, menudo etc.) ready to take home.

The butter croissants are tasty, but they tend to be quite greasy. The boxes are an additional cost, which wouldn’t be an issue if they informed you beforehand,...
