Come on in —
the bread's warm
From golden croissants at dawn to crusty loaves fresh from the deck, Durango Bakery #1 has been feeding the Lawrence Avenue neighborhood with honest, handcrafted baking.
Our Story
A bakery that feels like home
Durango Bakery #1 opened its doors on West Lawrence Avenue with a simple idea: bake honest food the way your abuela would approve of. No shortcuts, no artificial anything — just flour, water, butter, and a whole lot of patience.
Today we're still doing the same thing, every single morning before the sun comes up. The smell of pan dulce drifting down the block, crusty telera rolls for your tortas, and coffee strong enough to wake the whole neighborhood. That's the Durango difference.

What We Make
From our deck to your plate
Every item is handcrafted in small batches, right here in the bakery.
Pan Dulce
Conchas, orejas, cuernos, and bizcochos — all baked fresh each morning using time-honored recipes passed down through generations.
Artisan Breads
Telera for tortas, bolillo for tacos, and rustic country loaves with a crackling crust and soft, open crumb inside.
Coffee & Drinks
Rich, dark coffee brewed to order — café de olla, cappuccinos, and horchata that'll make you stay a while and enjoy it.
Cakes & Pastries
Custom celebration cakes, flan, churros, and seasonal pastries made with real butter and the finest ingredients.
Catering & Orders
Planning a gathering? We'll prepare a custom spread — from breakfast pastries to full party platters — picked up or delivered.
Made with Love
Every recipe, every batch, every smile — it all starts with the same thing: caring about the people who walk through our door.
