Porto’s Bakery
Worth ItA legendary LA Cuban bakery that has scaled up beautifully while somehow keeping prices unbelievably affordable.
“We’ve been loyal customers since back when they operated out of small, hole-in-the-wall shops in Glendale, and it’s been incredible to watch their journey.”
Best for
- Cuban pastry fans
- Affordable high-quality bakery treats
Why Milo likes it
- The cheese rolls are genuinely superb — crusty, flaky, creamy, and remarkably affordable
- Guava cheese pastries, potato balls, croquettes, and empanadas are all consistently excellent
- Has elevated from small hole-in-the-wall shops into high-end Cuban-French cafe-quality stores without losing quality or raising prices unreasonably
Know before you go
- Lines can stretch a block long during peak weekend hours
