Casa Latina Bakery
Pan dulce, horchata and plates of tamales and mole on San Pablo Avenue, with breakfast served until 2pm.
Acerca de
Casa Latina Bakery sits at 1805 San Pablo Avenue in West Berkeley, a short walk from University Avenue. It is two businesses under one roof: a Mexican panadería with cases of pan dulce, and a kitchen that serves breakfast, soups, tacos and full plates into the evening. The bakery's own website gives 1998 as its founding year and lists the same phone and address as this directory record. Online it often goes by the shorter name Casa Latina.
From the bakery case to the dinner plate
The menu posted on the website is split into sections. Café y jugos covers espresso and brewed coffee, fresh juices, aguas frescas and horchata. Breakfast is served until 2pm every day. Starters include pupusas, empanadas, flautas, ceviche and sandwiches, followed by tacos, burritos and enchiladas, then sopas y ensaladas, and finally platos grandes, where tamales and mole appear. The range means one stop can be a piece of pan dulce with coffee on the way to work, and another can be a plate of mole at dinner.
Posted hours run from 7am to 9pm Monday through Saturday and from 8am to 9pm on Sunday.
Ordering and visiting
For a family gathering or an office breakfast, phone ahead and ask how much pan dulce can be set aside and how much notice the kitchen wants for a large tamale or mole order. If anyone in your group avoids wheat, dairy, pork or nuts, ask at the counter; a bakery that also runs a full kitchen handles all of them in the same space. Selection in a pan dulce case is usually widest in the morning and thins out as the day goes on. Plan on street parking along San Pablo Avenue or the side streets unless the staff suggest otherwise, and note that AC Transit buses run the length of the avenue.
Getting there from around the East Bay
San Pablo Avenue ties the bakery north to Albany and south to Emeryville and Oakland. Piedmont, Alameda, San Leandro and Castro Valley are a short drive away, all within Alameda County.
