Desir Bakery — Restaurant in Houston

Desir Bakery is located inside 99 Ranch Market.

As for the prices, they're pretty reasonable too. If you drop by in the evening, they often have special discounts. But hey, here's a heads up: make sure you finish or freeze their baked goods fast, 'cause they tend to get moldy...

The coconut milk bread is some real tasty stuff! Every time we go to 99 Ranch we pick up a loaf of it and finish it in the way home. I also like a number of their other items they make, especially the cheesy ones. The only reason I didn’t give a 5 star review is their staff has never been friendly or polite at all. They act like you’re in their way and watch out if you ask a question b/c they’re going to answer you like you’re...
