"Loading up on baked goods is half the fun of visiting this buzzy 25-year-old Mexican bakery, where guests are invited to grab a pizza tray and tongs and hand-select items like conchas, doughnuts, and churros, from well-stocked cases. Fresh tortillas are also prepared onsite, appearing on a conveyor belt as they are flattened, then packaged to grab-and-go. Pro tip: Replace a traditional birthday cake with El Bolillo’s tres leches cakes, which are considered among the best in the city." - Brittany Britto Garley
