Panaderia La Barca — Restaurant in Pomona

Todays sundays they close at 2 pm so I show up with 10 mins to spare ready to make a big order for my family after church and decided to try this place and the door was locked with the female behind the register yelling that they are closed and to try somewhere else as she seems like she does not want to work so Alex to confirm that sundays they close at 2 pm she had stated yes we close at 2pm but yet she still did not want to work as I look in this location is very dirty and grimy , everything seems to be sticky and has a layer of dirt and grease everywhere I will not ever go here again knowing what I know now so please save yourself the disappointment of coming here as it is a run down dirty mom and pop shop that cares nothing of there clients makes me wonder how they stay open if not laundering money but I hope everyone hears my warning that this is not worth the time and effort of coming to , I would rate a no star but I had to put something to save any else future disappointment stay safe...

Yes, you have to go very early. It's only served on the weekends. They have menudo, birria and great tamales. On the menu is also quesadilla made with handmade tortillas. They also make them with birria. They tend to make tamales several times a day.

The bollios are...

Update: Came again in 2024 for yet another scrumptious fresh rosca. In and out in 10 minutes, surrounded by staff that is determined to make this business happen! Everyone was plugged in and ready to give people service and get them out with fresh, delicious product managing to keep the right attitude. Blessings to everyone, and congratulations for putting in proactive hard work in what would've been one of their...
