Comadre Panaderia

Originally operating as an online-only pop-up bakery that would regularly sell out, Comadre Panaderia finally has a proper brick-and-mortar space in East Austin, with a greater selection than a candy store. The broad menu of stunning, modern spins on sweet and savory pan-Latinx baked goods—which might include conchas, puerquitos, breakfast empanadas, diablitos, croissants, donas, kolaches, pan de elote, and more—almost always sells out. But thankfully you can drop everything and place an online pre-order when it opens mid-week, or head there on the earlier side for the extras available on the weekends. Find Comadre Panaderia right next door to Nixta Taqueria on Cedar Avenue, and maybe grab some breakfast tacos from Nixta while you’re there.
