Loved getting to pick out all of our own pastries! Such a huge variety to choose from. Best churros of my life (the ones filled with caramel). We also loved the pumpkin concha and the rebanada de mantequilla. The tiny pecan pie-looking pastries were great too, not too sweet with a soft cookie crust. Haven’t tried the rest yet. The workers were sweet and we got 11 pastries for $22! Amazing prices for the quality. Def recommend for a fun activity and delicious food.

El Bolillo is a true Northside classic and one of those places that feels woven into Houston family life. Everyone I know has had a birthday cake from here at some point, and I’ve been coming for their sweet bread for years — always fresh, always comforting, always hits. It’s that kind of nostalgic neighborhood spot where the smell, the trays, the pan dulce… it all just feels like home. I also recently found out they have another location near the Galleria off Westpark, which I love same authentic vibe, just reaching more families. El Bolillo isn’t just a bakery — it’s part of our culture and our celebrations. Always will be one of my go-to’s.

If you're in the area or going to Houston and you want your Mexican bakery good this is the best around. And definitely get the PINK CAKE,4 pieces because after you taste and get one for your other half you won't get another bite.

3rd time here.. Usually well stocked. Clean. They have a large variety of Spanish pastries and also do kolaches in the morning. Nothing extraordinary,just basic bakery. Lines moves smoothly even when busy.

Very good selection and freshly made every day! Bolillos are very economical and delicious! The cajeta croissant is delicious as, well as the cinnamon raisins roll. The only thing, where are the chamucos??? They are always out. It's listed on the website, but never there! The tamales and tortillas are also delicious! The empanadas are also delicious. Highly recommended!

They have pre-made birthday cakes and they are all so cute and different types of tres-leches flavors. The one we got was only $35 which in my opinion was definitely worth it. The bread is a bit on the higher side but it is all so delicious and worth it. My kids love coming here to get our sweet bread. I’m glad I picked them to pick up a quick cake as well.
