Guestbook
“ I tried this place and the service was great. No issues whatsoever. I wanted a cinnamon roll but they didn’t have a traditional one. I got one with Oreo pieces and it was delicious. Not too sweet but delicious. I walked there for exercise and I’m glad I did. You can order on uber but the prices are insane. The same cinnamon roll is 100 pesos compared to 60 pesos in the store. Plus you have to pay for delivery and a tip. ”
“ Just do yourself a favor and go, then order one (or many) of each, eat them and be happy. That's all you need to know. (Veberages are not the best, but that's not what you go for to this place). ”
“ Fui a probar sus famosas conchas por la tendencia en redes, ¡y fue una grata experiencia! El personal es muy atento, desde la llegada preguntan si eres nuevo para explicar detalladamente los sabores e ingredientes, lo cual se agradece. Probamos las de temporada de Uchepo, Calabaza y Chocolate. Aunque de inicio parecen sabores raros, dejan una muy buena sensación. El pan es excepcionalmente suave y delicioso. Es una excelente opción para visitar y probar algo diferente y original. Totalmente recomendado. ”
“ Really nice conchas, even though they're stuff, they're not too sweet. It's the perfect balance and there size is big. A traditional dessert taken to the next level. I even brought them to some relatives in Europe, it was hard to carry them on the airplane and airport, but it was worth it! ”
