La Familia Bakery - Hillsborough County

Incredible hidden jem. Authentic Mexican bakery with a lil abuelita cooking in the back. The bread made here is perfect. The chocolate and glazed donuts are some of the best you will ever have. Try the pork tamales. Also made fresh and soooooo good. The empanadas sell fast!Incase this is your first time at a spanish bakery here are some instructions. When you walk in you will see the desserts. Grab the metal platter on the bottom and use the tongs to pick each sweet bread you would like to purchase. Then you take your choices to the counter and pay. Easy. They package them up and u get to enjoy tasty soft goodies.They also have birthday cakes and individual trees leches pieces. Lots to try and enjoy.I drove over an hour to get here and it was worth it.5 star flavor. Very clean, a classic mom and pop shop.

The place is quite small with a variety of items, each $1. The taste is ok but not much of a distinction between items. Other than bakery products drinks, ice cream and many items are available. Did not see many savory products, but it was a good place.

Not a rating on the food because I never tried it. We never got that far. I called to inquire about a potential cake order and no one speaks English. I speak a little Spanish but not enough to convey the details so that’s where the call ended. Bizarre.

The prices here are better than any other bakery in the area. Always a variety.

Nice hole in the wall bakery with friendly staff. The bakery has a smaller selection yet various sweets. The coffee tres leches could have been better, the favoring was good but texture was too thick and bread like. The location does accept Apple Pay and has evening hours.
