It was interesting… A lot smaller than I expected…2−3 people could fit in the small storefront. CASHONLY… They also serve coffee… But nowhere to sit. Good deals though $.50 and $.75 for cookies and treats… The cookies were on the crunchy side… I like chewy cookies… But, they had a nice, not overly sweet flavor and nice dough… The lady behind the mini counter was nice… But she gave me tongs(with cheese or cheesecake on them already) to use to pick out my own cookies… Sanitary? Hmmmmm… {scratching chin with one eye squinting & looking up into the air for answers} Would I return? Only if I was already in LQ Cove area… No special trips will be made… :-) I wonder if their main business is supplying restaurants with breads & cookies… as well as Party Cakes… I don’t know… Just wondering… If you know, feel free to share your knowledge… Thanks. :-)

La Quinta Bakery is a very quaint and very affordable Mexican bakery hidden behind a very plain and non-descript looking mini strip-mall exterior. La Quinta Bakery is often confused by a number of reviewers/sites with the similar sounding but totally different bakery: La Quinta Baking Co, a French bakery with fancy schmancy patisserie offerings. La Quinta Bakery offers simple delicious treats but we love the variety of cookies in their tall self-service cases. It’s a lot of fun to fill a brown bag with a kooky combo of cookies for less than $ 5! Unlike many bakeries/coffeehouses, there isn’t an overpriced $ 2+ cookie in sight. La Quinta Bakery is all about treats(tasty sweet empanadas), simple breads, and made-to-order cakes. There aren’t fancy espresso drinks, energy bars, or energy/power drinks. The shop is definately no-frills and bare bones inside and out. It’s small so there is no seating inside, nor are there al fresco seats. It’s a get your goodies and go kind of place. Bottom Line: Cookie Monster would approve… affordable and yummy cookies *CASHONLY

Love this place! I go at least once a week, the staff treats you like family, the owner knows me by first name. Great food, and I love the environment. Amazing pastries

I ordered a cake for a baby shower for 15 people. I paid $ 52 for a cake that was delivered with illegible writing. It was sloppy and they were missing an important word on the cake… AND. It was a baby shower for two mom’s and on the cake it read, «Welcome Will Rylan». I requested, «Welcome Will and Rylan». When I asked the owner what happened to the word AND, I was told that they ran out of blue icing and NO I wasn’t getting a refund! I was then told by the owner that whining still wouldn’t get me a refund. I will NEVER use this bakery again as I was not impressed with the sloppy writing and the rude attitude of the owner.
