Service training needed - they gave me 2 options, I responded with the second options, they replied that the second option wasn’t available Then I asked for honey for my drink, they added it behind the counter but didn’t mix, handed it back saying “goodbye!!.” Food could be fresher too
Established in 2021 and located on 30th Avenue in Astoria, this narrow local bakery offers a variety of Colombian delights and was luckily open on Christmas, when my cousin and I came for lunch as first-timers. Upon entering, the Parceros Bakery II was already hopping with patrons enjoying their meal, with only 2 tables left. We were greeted by the staff and sat in the back. The interior was clean and colorful, with Christmas decor and festive music playing. Their menu is posted on the wall with typical baked items such as pan de jamon y queso, arepa de chocolo, or a good selection of hot food, i.e., chorizo, empanadas, tamales, and chicharon. Their popular selections are beef empanadas, baked chicken, and assorted soups. We decided on carne molida (ground beef) accompanied by yellow rice and boiled potato, as well as their Tamal Tolimense accompanied by a small arepa quenching with Colombian soda. I opted for one chicken and one beef empanada to go. The meal arrived hot and full of flavor, and the portions were generous. However, the arepas were served cold and hard. The food was authentic, delicious, and fairly priced. The service was good and friendly. We could recommend this place.
