Mariachi Bakery: A Taste of Latino Favorites and Exceptional Coffee in Norwalk, CA

If I only knew earlier the coffee is here is exceptional, I would have tried it way before this. The coffee is divine. Strong and not overly sweet yet unique. And definitely will try them all. I'm so glad that this is in my neighborhood!

They have a drive thru! But it's on the passenger side so it's a little tricky when you're driving alone lol It's my first time trying mariachi bakery. They have so many classic Latino favs like cafe de olla, abuelita chocolate, and classic black drip coffee. They also have decaf options for lattes! I tried the cafe de olla with sweet foam. Overall it was a super tasty drink, not too overwhelming on the clavo. The only downside, which was a tiny detail, was the sweet foam was underwhelming. I'm not sure what type of cream they're using for it but it melted into the coffee pretty quickly so you don't really get to taste it. 4.5/5

Love the cafe de olla here! Great bread options, a convenient drive through and super friendly staff ! Outdoor dining is also very nice and relaxing. Would absolutely recommend.

My mom and I were near by and decided to stop by after finding their Instagram. The pastries taste as good as they look! We had the ham and cheese croissant (gigantic) and the jalapeño croissant. My only complaint is that I wish the cheese in the croissant was cheddar instead of cream cheese (I think it was) but that's just a preference! We took home a chocolate croissant, concha, and churro crumb cake. All three were great, I think the coffee cake was my favorite! We had the Abuelita's latte and the Horchata Matcha (both with almond milk substitute) and we enjoyed both. Okay so even without the food and drinks being great, the service was amazing! The two girls that helped us out were so sweet and helpful. Offering insight and suggestions. I just wished we lived closer! They also have a drive through for those in a hurry. 10/10 would recommend.

Had a good first experience here! Sugar cookie latte - was just a latte. Good but not sugar cookie like I hoped, nothing special Marzipan latte - yes!! Cranberry cream cheese concha - so delicious and moist Corn pastry - dry and needs to be dipped. Not not much flavor but was fine Gingerbread pastry - really liked the flavor but needed to be dipped or it was super dry Prices - latte prices are comparable to other coffee shops and pastries to other Mexican pastry shops

My husband found this spot online somewhere and we decided to stop when we were in the area. To be honest I'm a little conflicted about my feelings towards this spot. Let's start with the location. It's in a small shopping center but there was enough parking when we arrived. They have a drive thru with a single window on the passenger's side. There's a cute outdoors patio with chairs and cute plants. They also have indoor seating. The walls have cute saying and/or decorations. It's very aesthetically pleasing and can make adorable IG posts. They have a large selection of pan dulce, drinks, and even some food items. We decided to order an horchata frappe, an abuelita latte, a guava bread, and a churro crumb cake. The pricing was decent for the items. However, the horchata latte wasn't good. It didn't taste like horchata at all. Tierra Mia horchata frappes are much richer in taste in my opinion. The abuelita latte saved the trip though as that drink was pretty good! I don't know if it was meant to have chunks at the bottom though and so it was difficult to finish drinking since the chocolate was saturated down there. The guava bread was not good. Definitely skip that if you were imagining Porto's or Tierra Mia guava bread. The churro crumb cake was good though! We enjoyed that one very much. When we arrived, we had to wait for 30min or so to order. They had several workers attending to the guests to be able to get orders out faster. We only waited about 7-8min after ordering to be able to get our order. Overall, this place is pleasing to visit. There's also some good items on the menu so maybe if we're in the area we can try again.

Mariachi Bakery is a delightful spot that combines great vibes, excellent music, and delicious treats! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with a warm and inviting atmosphere that made us feel right at home. I tried the Mazapan Cold Brew, which was absolutely delicious--sweet, nutty, and perfectly balanced. For pastries, I had the Pumpkin Concha and the Mazapan Concha. While we went later in the day and the conchas were a tiny bit firm, they still retained a satisfying softness and great flavor. The employees were fantastic--friendly, patient, and happy to help us navigate the menu as first-time visitors. Their welcoming attitude added to the overall experience. This bakery is a must-visit, whether you're a fan of traditional Mexican pastries or just looking for a chill spot to enjoy great coffee and vibes. I'll definitely be back (hopefully earlier next time) to explore more of their menu!

The food we tasted was mid; specifically the Chorizo Burrito. BUT the empanada birria was sooo good! The service is quick and I like the backyard feel of the patio seating outside or one wants to sit inside, there's plenty of seating indoors too. I got a few pastries even though there was a fly inside the display case but I'd rate them about 6-7/10. I'd come back for their drinks though, super good! Someone recommended the, "Dulce de leche latte with added pump of dulce de leche and Dulce de leche cold foam", so yummy! The ambiance again is pretty laid back, backyard feel to it.

ORIGINAL FLAVORS Immediately saw the Duvalin coffee. Cold brew with a pink Duvalin flavored foam. I used to eat those more often as a child. It's a mini packet with hardened like Nutella and strawberry. You get a little mini spoon and I always felt sophisticated eating them. Anyways, I got the coffee for dessert and it was just a bit reminiscent of the flavor. Not too accurate but the cold brew was good and balanced the sugar. It looked aesthetically pleasing as well. My girlfriend got the matcha with pumpkin foam since fall is approaching and she came to the same conclusion I did. Basically, the drinks are cute, and well balanced. The bakery items were kinda stale but we came in 30 minutes before closing so I can't be too mad.

Stopped by before my first class today! It was not too busy when I first got there around 9:50 but after I got my order it did start to pick up. I tried the horchata frappe and it was very sweet, just how I like it! The cafe de olla was another good drink. My favorite was the chocolate croissant! It was so chocolatey! I can't wait to go back and try different pastries.
