Great pizza, Great bakery. Place is designed to get your snacks and food and go home. No inside seating. Outside seating has no shade.... food was excellent.

Tried 3 different sandwiches. Salami, Turkey, and Ham. All three on point. The acidity of the mustard and Italian vinaigrette was just right.Disappointed in in the cookie.When we went we saw lots of people eating pizza. Since we were just passing through and needed to eat on the car, we opted out. Definitely want to check out the Pizza in the future though.Cool fact: they roast their own coffee beans

They have a nice set up here. The outdoor seating area brings this place to life. The food was ok. I believe the owner took our order. He was friendly so I gave them an extra star.

THEY KNOW HOW TO MAKE SOME BOMB A** BREAD!!!!! First & wasnt our last during our weekend trip there! Went twice!!! Picked up BLUE CORN CRUST pizza!!! Delicious parties. Came back for the New Mexican Green Chili bread & got three loafs for us & family. Honestly was not a disappointment AT ALL!!! Everyone loved it so much!!!

Best pizza in Albuquerque bar none! Worlds Coffee Milkshake is a must. Locally owned and operated. #BlueCornCrust

Amazing staff and amazing food! Love the atmosphere, very beautiful in their patio area!

Weve enjoyed going here for the last few years, though over the last few times there was some issue with the orders. Usually its getting only one portion of meat on a salad when we would order and pay for two, or something wrong with a sandwich. This time, something happened with the pizza we ordered so they had to remake it. So finally we get our order and the pizza only has two of the four toppings, which we of course didnt catch until after getting home. If they allowed customers to wait inside for their orders instead of having to go sit in their cars, we would have looked to make sure the order is correct. Tried to call them, but they still arent taking calls. Id say stick to the bread and pastries, which are good, though lately there hasnt been much selection. Im done

The owner and creator of delicious breads and sweet delicacys was really friendly and a senior and very friendly and kind. He creates unique desserts and breads. I think hes an amazing man who has been open for a long time take time.Check it out...

Great service and delicious food! Enrique was so efficient and polite while helping me today when I went in to get my grandmother some treats. Definitely a favorite.

The flaky pastries were outstanding!The enpanadas were good, with a whole wheat style crust. The blueberry was my favorite.The biscochitos were good, but not quite what I expected. I preferred the coffee flavored ones.Customer service was a lovely young girl who was close to the family.Nice place!

I loved the aroma as I walked into the panaderia! The selection of products they have to offer! Plus, I was immediately greeted by my server Leanna! She was very courteous, professional & did suggest items I hadnt seen! I will definitely be back! THANK YOU LEANNA! I was very satisfied with my purchase!

Loved the idea of this place but the cookies missed the mark for us. Loads of options from bread to pastries.

I had a very good experience here. The building is awesome, the decor is perfect for their personality, and the people are very nice. I have to agree with one of the other reviewers, its a little pricey. The bakery items were very good, I had their Green Chili bread, and a pepperoni twist. The bread couldnt have been better, I may go back for some more. You could taste the green chilies, and it had a slight amount of heat. The twist was flaky and full of flavor. The lost a star with the pizza. For me the crust was too dense and didnt have the right flavor.

Ive ordered delivery from here via Uber Eats a few times before, always amazing food. I was in the general vicinity, so I decided to do a pickup order instead. Its a great building appearance wise, and very friendly staff. Simply too hot to sit outside, otherwise I would have enjoyed myself on the patio that they have. When its cooler outside, Ill have to come back in as a dine in patron, theyve definitely earned it :)

First visit, but we will return. Had a 12 pie and enjoyed the patio on a nice fall lunch. 😋

We are not from ABQ and stopped in to get a couple goodies. We bought two bischochitos (each flavor), a wedding cookie, and a green chile bread twist. Cookies are about $1/piece, wedding cookies 55¢. They were all good.The lady working 12/30 wasn’t very nice or welcoming. She seemed to be in a bad mood. Super cute little bakery.

Delicious 🥰😋. I love their breads. Would like to try their meals when time allows.

First time Ive had biscochitos and I was blown away, texture was amazing. We had a blueberry empanada and a strawberry puff pastry as well. Everything we ate here was great, next time we drive through I am absolutely buying more biscochitos!

A must see, unique place for pizza, sandwiches, local beers, baked goods. Nice patio. This place is internationally known for its been chili bread, and the empanadas are to due for. Just go.

I promise, if you like green chilis then you have to order a pizza with the green chili crust. Its fantastic and full of flavor.

The staff was welcoming and very friendly. We had a sample of some of their cookies and ended up buying a dozen. We ordered the ham and cheese and the roast beef sandwiches and garlic bread along with a strawberry stuffed pastry. Everything was phenomenal. We were taken care of by Shawna and around man whose name I did not get but both were very friendly.

Pratt makes some awesome tasty treats! LOVE the dough he uses for the empanadas. So different than your typical. Super yum!

I dropped by last weekend, the food was delicious and my server Leanna was super sweet and gave great recommendations.

2nd time I got food poisoning in 2 years from this gutter of a restaurant. Looks quaint and awesome. Famous last words.

Great food and a happy environment. You can tell the love that is placed in every bite.

I was totally engaged w/the owner, Pratt Morales, who has been baking for 50 yrs after serving his country in the Air Force. He looks much younger than his matured years and is delightful. We had the Genoa salami/provolone & Pastrami/provolone on fresh baked baguette. Sandwiches perfectly married w/condiments. A surprise was the fire hot queso served w/tortilla chips, which is called corn chips. The green Chile loaf of bread is the very best I have ever tasted. Upon request, will slice. The loaf is so huge, we have to share with our friends. My hubby and I agree, we will ALWAYS buy our bread here. The gravel patio is inviting. Looking forward to returning very soon.

Too good to be true!Blue corn pizza dough recipe?1 mile off of I-40, you wont regret the pit stop. Great pizza, great local beer, smoothies fresh baked bread,cookies and great waitstaff. Everything I ate was a magical assault to my tastebuds. I wish I lived close enough to this place to eat here at least 2 times a week.

We read about this bakery in the Lonely planet and went there to have dinner, it was a really big surprise about this tasty meal. What we can say: go there and try it, its terrific and delicious. The place is comfortable and the people are really friendly. We met the boss Pratt and had a nice talk. It was a pleasure to be there. Thanks again! Petra and George

Now that Laura is gone, this place has really gone to heck. No one cares any longer, the food isn’t as good, the atmosphere feels moldy, and the soda machine looks funny. Everyone that works here is still great and always do their beat, but management is weak, petty, and full of self-loathing. How could I know this? Because I am all of those things. You guys lost the best employee you have ever had. You screwed up and I hope you realize that every single day. Change your ways or things are going to get even worse. I’m a shaman and a fortune teller, and I tell you what! You messed up. Laura was your best reason to be open. Gosh, makes me so sick to my stomach. Ouch, it really hurts. Yes, yes, I tried going to the bathroom. It’s not that. No, it’s not gas either. Its probably just anxiety from missing Laura.

Blue Corn crest pizza with meaty pepperoni and favor filled sausage was best pizza i tasted in a long time! I will say it Golden!!

Sandwich on green chile bread and blueberry empanada were amazing!

Friendly staff, good prices, a great variety of pan dulce, &so many other wonderful treats.

Cute place good food!

One of those best hidden places in ABQ, but everyone should check this place out for delicious foods of all kinds. Pizzas, breads, sweets, and more.... Everything a bakery can have. And the owner and staff are very nice and friendly to serve you better. My first experience totally exceeded my expectations. 5 Stars ☑️

I came here on a recommendation and ended up eating half a loaf of New Mexican Chili Bread in the parking lot. Fresh out the oven and delicious. Empanadas were awesome too!

Authentic empanadas. Plenty of filling. Unlike some places Ive been to which have all breading, very little filling. Staff was friendly, attentive and prompt.

Great food with a nice New Mexico flare! They have a great bread with green chiles that you can get as a loaf or as the crust on a pizza!

I found the Golden Crown Panaderia on a list of things to do in Albuquerque. There is ample indoor and outdoor seating for the breakfast crowd, and everything is baked fresh on the premises. I loved being able to see the bakers working behind the counters. The loaves are beautiful and smell amazingly and they give out free biscochitos with each order. I had a sweet potato pastry and a pizza with pepperoni and green chile on a blue corn crust. The 8” pizza came out quickly and was the perfect size for lunch. Wonderful neighborhood spot...I wish I lived around the corner!

I had to try the chocolate biscochitos I have heard a couple people rave about.. And I actually really liked them so did my husband and he doesnt care for biscochitos at all.. My daughter ate one, said they were ok.. I also had to get some empanadas and another strawberry thingy for my husband and those were really good, they put anise in the masa for the crust.. I really liked everything but thought it was kinda pricey.. OH.. I almost forgot.. The wedding cookies are also pretty good!! I more than likely will go back when I have a little extra money.. 👍

Staff were super nice and food was good. Pizza was really interesting and we might have rated it higher if the topings were a little more adventurous. Be prepared for the crust to be on the thicker side (its corn).Empanadas and biscochitos were good. Lots of cinnamon and fruit flavors.

The guava pastry is the best. Really nice staff and friendly owner.

Excellent food and service. My only complaint was that it was close to 100 degrees today and their patio tables did not have umbrellas or any shade. It makes it difficult to enjoy your food when youre miserable.

Definitely excellent service and a generous coupon was received in the mail so I had to go! My only recommendation to the staff would be to have fresh jalapeños!

Their pizza was delicious but a bit pricey. If I go back it will be for the dessert!! The biscochitos and empanadas were soooo yummy. My favorite pastry is pumpkin empanadas and this place makes one of the best Ive ever had!!!

Definitely not you average bakery. Worth the visit for something different and uniquely Albuquerque, but flavors and textures will not be for all.

Love the environment it is so relaxing and beautiful. Love the plants and the Adobe walls.Tried the sandwich and it was delicious.

Blue corn veggie pizza, Complementary cookies on arrival,Great selection of local beers, super pleasant staff. All good.

I know this place is popular among locals and gets rave reviews but, I did not like one thing I ordered. The empanadas are made with a strange crummy crust that falls apart in your hand. The fruit filling is made from jam, not whole fruit and is less than a quarter inch in depth. Their signature cookies are also strangely crumbly and just taste like flour and cinnamon. It was so disappointing. Nice counter help from staff.

Quaint little spot. Standard of its type, and overall average everything. Coffee was just okay. So were the baked goods. However, they thoughtfully offer such things after 3pm.

I love this little place! They have the best empanadas and pastries and wedding cookies were to die for!!! This was the first time I had been there and so Im dying to try the pizza and sandwiches. I will go back again and again.

The pizza was pretty good - the crust was very crispy if you like that (I do). Try their green chili bread. The staff is very pleasant. It wasnt too crowded inside and there is outside seating. They serve Pepsi products there (I prefer Coke) but that wont stop me from going back, theres other items I want to try.

Very great spot. Nm classics cooked well. Biscochitos are light as a feather and the staff is super helpful.

Must try the green chili twist, texture is like croissant yet packs a lot of spice and cheese flavors. Green chilli loaf is not bad but not as flavourful when eaten alone.

One of my favorite pizza places. Recently took my kids after swim classes and we enjoyed their pizza on a green chile crust (dough) with empanadas for dessert. Yum! They also have a blue corn dough, that sounded interesting. They also make yummy biscochitos. They also make sandwiches & coffee. Stop by and enjoy. Small note, they do have outdoor sitting but its not covered, I would recommend order & pick up or eat just after 2pm.

Very good pizza and great neighborhood restaurant vibe. Not the best pizza place Ive ever been to, but if I lived in this neighborhood Id be at this place all the time! 👍

Gotta give the Golden Crown Paneria 5 stars, after being there 3 times in 3 visits to Albuquerque. Its just an unpretentious bakery which holds its ground in producing its rendition of local traditions, against the onslaught of corporate bakery and coffee houses... Pastries, awesome pizzas, breads, friendly staff relaxed and simple atmosphere. Come by and try it.

This is a little gem of a bakery, just minutes from Old Town Albuquerque. We enjoyed the delicious fruit empanadas, and ordered a take-and-bake pizza. The pizza, featuring blue cornmeal in the crust was one of the best and unique weve had anywhere in the world!

Celebrated my sons birthday with the fam. tonight.Love the blue corn pizza!!🍕💕🍕

Golden crown is hands down my favorite pizza place and bakery in town. I always get the create your own pizza with onion, pepperoni, and green chile on the green chile dough. They use the same doughs for their breads and pizzas, as far as I can tell, and they work well for both. However, if your preference is thinner crust pizza, you would be better off ordering one of their sandwiches, for which they use house made baguettes or bread, and obviously fresh ingredients. I also always order their cheesy garlic bread and sometimes like it more than the pizza, depending on my mood.The biscochitos, again, are my favorite in the city as they are not overly sweet and are on the drier side so pair well with coffee, but that does mean they are not for you if you want something more moist or sweeter. The blue corn and cappuccino biscochitos are absolutely divine. I also very much enjoy their danishes as the filling is a great consistency and the pastry is perfectly layered.I generally keep a loaf of marble rye and a loaf of honey wheat sliced and frozen to eat as desired, as the bread doesnt have preservatives, so not being able to finish a full loaf within a week or two may result in wastage depending on how you store it. That said, I dont have to freeze the green chile cheddar bread, as it is generally gone in a couple days.The empanadas are obviously well made, the dough has good flavor for what it is, and I believe use the same filling as the danishes, they just arent to my personal taste as I believe they might use a whole wheat dough for them, and its not my preference.

They have amazing drinks, bread, pizza, etc. I find that some of their baked goods are better than others. For example, I really like the empanadas, and how they’ve been offering baking ingredients since the beginning of the pandemic. Their hot drinks are super warming and delicious. I find the biscochitos are just okay. The owner is known to be a great figure in the community. Sometimes I’ve noticed some workers aren’t wearing their masks over their nose. Overall a pretty good experience.

Got here early for fresh out of the oven deliciousness. Cookies, empanadas, concha and a loaf of green chili bread. It was a great morning.

Literally the best pizza that I have ever tasted. This place is a bakery first and foremost so they have mastered the crust - the most important part of the crust. I have tried all the different crusts but the best one is hands down Blue Corn! The cookies are also amazing but the pizza and the patio are the best things about this place. Also, the staff gives out free cookies to all kids who come in - meaning everyone. It made me feel young and hey, I got a free cookie!

Incredible New Mexican bakery with amazing pizza. Top notch biscochitos and empanadas. Good ice tea with a huge variety of teas to choose from. I highly recommend this to anyone interested in New Mexican food. Was also once visted by Guy Fieri.

Dope spot if you like great bread, pizza, Sammys and fruit pies

Service and quality isnt as good as it used to be.

We are from Orange County California, wish you had a place in So Cal. Great, great green chili bread. Enpanadas too!

We, me and my wife, came in early this morning and we were met with a smiling face! Regardless of the power outage that had happened the night before, the owner had this place reset and all the ovens going providing us with some of the freshest empenadas weve had!Were from Seattle, so were sad we wont be be able to make this a regular go to spot! Oh, and the coffee is freshly roasted in house!10/10 must go!

This place is a good hole in the wall with some very tasty pizza. It could definitely be better maintained. I went there with my grandma and mother. It was hard to find a table that wasnt dirty. The table we did find that was clean enough was so sticky it was almost sickening to sit there. I would understand if it was busy and hectic, those things can be hard to get to, but it wasnt. Food was great and it would be nice to sit outside on a pretty day.

Pizza was terrific, the cookies are wonderful and the staff is very friendly.

This place is a great hidden treasure! The food is good and the atmosphere is cozy!

Great food, wonderful staff and atmosphere.

First time customer, phenomenal sweet and savory pastries and breads at affordable pricing. Will be a regular customer from this point forward. Love supporting entrepreneurial people who do an amazing job with an even better product. Thank You for a very happy day of wonderful foods.

AWESOME ATMOSPHERE VERY GOOD SERVICE

I drive past this place all the time on my way to work and finally decided to stop in and try it out about a month ago and again yesterday, and I was extremely impressed with the my experience both times so I had to write a review! They have empanadas, coffee, biscochitos, bread, and all sorts of good stuff! On my first visit, I had an apple empanada and a coffee, which was absolutely delicious!! For round two I got the chocolate biscochitos, and they totally melt in your mouth!! The most memorable part of both experiences was the woman who waited on me both times, Veronica. She was very friendly and knowledgeable, and the coffee that she made me was perfect! I made sure to get her name on my second visit because she just made my day!! Thank you Veronica!! I highly recommend visiting this adorable bakery located in Old Town, Albuquerque, NM!!

Really nice people. The pizza crust is not thick and the green chili crust is yummy. Green chili has some heat! Great beer selection. Limited food menue, Sandwiches and pizza. Pastries are great.

Food was amazing. Cookies were Fabulous, and it was great to chat with the Young man who was on tv with Guy.

There are people in our group who do not eat pizza; I know, I know CRAZY!! The pizza here is so good it makes those people crave more pizza! The bakery is amazing! The biscochitos are a treasure we are now sharing with people across the country. All of this and the best thing has to be the owner and the amazing staff providing excellent customer service and a friendly environment making you want to come back over and over.

Holy moley. I was looking for an Albuquerque standard bearer for local eats, and I found it with this panaderia. Not only does it have an excellent pastry selection, but you can also get pizza and sandwiches on their homemade bread. They have local microbrews on tap, they give you a free sample cookie as you order, and its comfy as a local business should be. Will swing by again on my way out of town to load up on pastries, and will definitely be back.

Delicious empanadas!! Blueberry and pumpkin are my favorites.

Tasty cookies. Colorful. Friendly staff.

We really love visiting this place when we are in town! A local favorite, and a sense of being a guest in their home. Just great food.

Out of towner, made an online order but it wasn’t ready when I arrived. It wasn’t busy and she pulled it together very quickly but seemed silly to order ahead. I really appreciate the inexpensive prices and trying local favorites. I got a variety of the “home style” (chocolate chip), the little pig, chocolate New Mexico wedding cookies, and biscochitos. Also got a loaf of the cinnamon pecan bread. Tasty but not “fancy” products, which is reflected in the prices. The bread toasted nicely for breakfast with butter however I wish there were more pecans and cinnamon on top or swirled to really bring out the flavors. Worth it for trying the cookies New Mexico is known for!!!

WOW! Let me see if I can muster the proper words, I just happen to be a profound and highly skilled speaker of the language of food. Even at my 54, 116 pound, 55 year old self.This Father and Son business has an amazing history- the staff working there are absolutely over the top friendly- that in itself is tops for me.But it doesnt stop there! The pizza will make your head spin! Im not even a pizza connoisseur! But, its heavenly!The pastries divinely melt in your mouth; we had lemon and apple empanadas. My goodness gracious!We also got the traditional mexican wedding cookies, and the original biscochitos. As of that wasnt enough...we bought a loaf of New Mexico Chile bread, which they happily sliced for us.Did I mention that I also speak fluent hyperbole??Food is good!PS...we hiked up the Embudito Trail prior to the bakery to build that appetite! 🤣 🥯🧁🥯🧁

I love this bakery. Pizza and sandwiches are 4 of 5 stars. Im not only going back im telling everyone who will listen this place is in my top 10 Albuquerque list

Solid pizza and great empanadas

The BEST! Biscochitos. Empañadas. NM Wedding Cookies. Green chili bread and pizza dough... the list goes on and on and on... staff is super cool and very kind!

I absolutely love this neighborhood bakery! The friendly staff always greet you with a smile and a free biscochito cookie made fresh in house. Lattes and baked goods are out of this world.

Quaint and wonderful little cafe. They roast their own coffee and its delicious. They serve an assortment of fresh baked goods, sandwiches, pizzas, and salads. All very fresh and tasty. This place is puppy friendly, too.

Green chilli bread is a smash! Take a loaf home with you and taste deliciousness in every sandwich you make! But first, get one of the sandwiches here for inspiration.

Havent purchased bread here yet, but everything smells soooooooo good! Their pizza is the best! Only issue was their driveway exit and my car. My car is too low (I dont have a low rider, just lower a clearance.)

I love this place. Favorite bakery in town! Their biscochitos are the perfect amount of sweet and crumbly. I always have to get a cherry empanada while Im there. Because I have a mammal allergy, Im super appreciative that they dont use dairy in their biscochito or empanada dough. I also love their outdoor patio and cant wait until things get more normal post covid to sit out there again. Regardless, theyre still doing takeout orders and you can eat your food in your car or take it to a shaded park. Soooo happy theyre business is still standing during this economic hardship and hope they remain forever.

Wonderful place not to be missed delicious bakery items

Awesome place for a pizza!! Love the bread!

I thought the cookies are better at Garcias Kitchens!

I absolutely love this bakery! My mom and I have been coming here since I was in kindergarten. It is such a welcoming and warm environment and the food is always amazing. I always tell relatives and friends from out of town to try it because I know they wont be disappointed.

The pizza we ordered was very delicious we even had our little kid moment and colored a page while we waited no wonder theyve won awards we were very satisfied

Loved this bakery. The pizza was outstanding! Bravo!

This is a must visit if you are coming to Albuquerque. The absolute best baked goods and the worlds best coffee shake.

Hello everyone,If you like pizza and a cozy scenery you have to try this place out. Not only was the pizza delicious, but the staff was very friendly and attentive. The bakery side is also a must try so the next time you are tired of dions, dominos, or little ceasars but need pizza drive on down to this place... you won’t regret it.

Another delicious pizza place and everyone there is super nice. Got the veggie pizza on green chile crust. It was so good! The crust is thick and crispy and just taste so fresh, I guess because it is! Hahaha.
