Crema's Take

Mexico Bakery is a vibrant neighborhood gem that excels at what it does best: handcrafted Mexican pastries and traditional beverages that keep locals coming back. Their hot chocolate is genuinely special—rich and worth the visit on its own—and they pair it beautifully with an impressive selection of fresh pan dulce and tortas that showcase authentic flavors. The welcoming, attentive staff and long hours make it perfect for an early morning café stop or a late-night sweet craving with family.

This bakery had never fail to give us exceptional service until now. I order a medium size cake for my son's 21st birthday. I send my oldest to get the cake with a photo of the receipt as I was told that I could. The cake was order 1 week in advance when my son gets there and waits in line for over 15 minutes they asked him if he was at the right place having the receipt with the name of the business. I called and they told me that they could not find it but they could not give the money back without the actual receipt. I informed that we were in the middle of the party and they still didn't care. So now I had to send my second oldest for the cake. My wife to go and fine a last minute cake. I will no longer order from them again

Fun bakery with lots of selections. Delicious Mexican bread and rolls. You can get cakes for any occasion. Try the tortas. The hot chocolate is so good. Grab a piñata for the party.

Tons of meat but taste like crap. They should start by not putting the whole avocado in and making it into slices and el chorizo was very seasoned and very salty

The pan= 3 stars. Hot chocolate = too sweet. Aqua de piña=3 stars. The chorizo burrito=3 stars. Although It's a pretty big size. Quesadilla de pollo= 4 stars. Torta Cubana = the size of the torta is HUMONGOUS. It'll definitely keep you full all day. I personally I didn't enjoy the salchicha or ham. I should've gotten Asada. It took around 20 minutes for us to get our food. There is a kiosk in a corner that works and accepts card. We used it to avoid the line. It didn't print out a receipt, but they announced my food order. The majority of people were waiting in line to order with an actual human. We tried that too and it took so looong! They have tables and chairs so we sat and ate our food. People kept coming in and out. We saw a hello kitty cake being picked up that looked wonderful.

I recently visited Mexico Bakery in San Jose, CA, and it was an incredible experience! The customer service was top-notch—the staff was welcoming, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure a great visit. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers, which made the experience even better. The highlight, of course, was the freshly made bread, which is some of the best you’ll find in San Jose. Soft, warm, and packed with flavor, it’s a must-try. Their tortas are equally amazing, filled with fresh ingredients and bursting with authentic Mexican flavors. If you're searching for the best Mexican bakery in San Jose, Mexico Bakery should be at the top of your list. Highly recommend!
