GuatePan Bakery 2

Worst customer service ever! Baker and the front seem like he hiked up the price when seeing you I didn’t speak the language well

Las pup usas están horribles
Pedí de frijol con queso y solo tenían frijoles!
Y las revueltas no saben a nada!
El pan dulce esta bien duro
Deberían de ponerle un poquito de mantequilla
Parecen piedras!
No vuelvo nunca a ese lugar !
No lo recomiendo!

I came in wanting pan dulce bc my mom was craving some so I driven by this place so many times and so we decided to check it out. Mistakes the pan dulce tasted like chemicals had the strangest after taste. Never have I taste anything like it. My mom and boyfriend agreed the taste was awful. Spent $ 14 on pan dulce and all taste awful. Won’t be coming back.

While my boyfriend is getting tatted down the street I decided to take my baby for a walk… saw this place on reaeda/​Sherman way and I came in… ordered a chicken tamale and some beans shit was BOMB I shared the beans and tamale masa only with my baby 9 months old totally kid friendly he loved it and so did I!

FANTASTICO!!! The Food is Delicious!!! I Love the sweet breads, tamales, and good Mexican Chocolate they have. The desayuno breakfast is hot and tasty! This breakfast is scrambled eggs with fried bananas, healthy black beans with freshly homemade corn tortillias! this is my favorite meal. Other meals I like are the carne asada dinners along with the different pollo dishes. All the FOOD IS DELICIOSO! So come check this Bakery out you will be happy you did! A Big Salute to Effren his Wife & Their Staff, for an Awesome Authentic Guatemalan Bakery!

I stopped in yesterday as a quick lunch option while I did my errands. I was at the bus stop directly in front of the bakery and I decided to try it. I couldn’t find the name of the bakery to Unilocal until I got inside. The panes looked good but I really just wanted some good pupusas. I ordered my couple revueltas and horchata to drink as I waited for my to go order. It took maybe 10 minutes and they were fresh but too oily and not tasty enough on their own to have this much oil on them. I had to pat down each one, which doesn’t bother me except I had the hunting suspicious that I might get some acid reflux later. Overall, I think I’d go in for bread but not pupusas. Eh.

Yummy bread and food… even ordered my turkey from here for thanksgiving and I was really impressed… it came Guatemalan style with red sauce and meat stuffing but it was still great and affordable. Came with mash potatoes and rice… also yummy. Not four stars since the bread is sometimes more stale than others! I want my bread and sweets to be super fresh every time and sometimes I can taste that it’s older.

I’m not sure if the place had a change in ownership and baker. The bread definitely doesn’t taste as good and the service has taken a dive.
They’ve added various foods to the menu that you can eat in or order to go. I can only comment on the tamales. They were bland and on the smaller size.
In terms of service, they have a young woman serving as the cashier, server, and dispatcher. This really slows service down when she is preparing and serving food for diners. The line to get bread can get pretty long at this point because she is the only employee at the bakery.
I think I’ll go to the other bakery/​restaurant located on Reseda, in between Sherman Way and Saticoy from now on.

Great bread. A+

Amazing food!

Closest to guamalan bread I have tasted in the Valley– I know several great ones but all the way in LA. If you order tamales you should use «pan frances» (comes in strips of 4 for only $ 1!). If you order «chiles rellenos: you should use «bolillo» bread.
Unfortunately, the last time I ordered the chiles rellenos they didn’t taste as well– I’m guessing they were in a rush and didn’t take as much time to fry the egg in the chile. The chiles are a bit more expensive at $ 2.50 so I am definitely looking for another spot for chiles. Nevertheless their tamales are delicious!
Also, don’t leave without trying the turnovers– pineapple is my favorite.
The woman that bakes for them really knows how to make her pastries!
*Cash only spot.

I just happened on this place while getting my car worked on. I had a delicious egg and chille relleno sandwich mad with shredded beef served with a red sauce. It was delicious. The owner was very nice too. If I lived in the area I would def frequent it.

I have always heard the stories about how the bagels or pizza is always better on the east coast but never realized how true this was until I began to travel more. A less known fact is that this also holds true for Guatemalan bread. There are two things that we always ask our family to send from Guatemala that until now we couldn’t get here. Bread and Beer.
While there are still some differences with the bread made here from bread made in Guatemala this bakery provides some of the best breads, and other various foods that we have found in Los Angeles all the way up to Long Beach (we have been looking for years).
If you know what Guatemalan bread tastes like and want the best give this place a try, or if you don’t know, order some pan frances and smear it with fried black beans when you get home or try a chumpurrada or churro and dip it in your coffee or hot chocolate. Don’t forget la lengua and un cachito!

The guy that works here is straight up Chapin (: so woop woop. The bread here is delicious! and very inexpensive. Wish they start working on bringing other traditional foods and drinks to. I def became a fan
