I was born and raised in Puerto Nuevo, just a stone's throw away from the legendary La Ceiba Bakery! It’s hard to believe that 10 years have zipped by since my last visit; I moved to Cancun, Mexico, 11 years ago. But guess what? I’m back in Puerto Rico, and I can't wait to dive into one of my all-time favorite treats—a Cuban sandwich!
Let me tell you, I’ve been enjoying their bread for 60 years, and I’ve probably visited this bakery hundreds of times. And you won’t believe it—the Cuban sandwich tastes just as incredible as it did back in the '70s and '80s! Sure, prices have changed, but the meat is still juicy, the bread is as fresh as ever, and the sandwich is stacked high with mouthwatering goodness!
The service was outstanding, and the place was spotless, even the bathrooms! So if you find yourself in Puerto Rico, do yourself a favor and swing by La Ceiba. Definitely order that Cuban sandwich, and make sure to grab some Pastelito de Guayaba. Trust me, you won’t regret it!
I drive 45 mins to get to la Ceiba. The quality and service are going down.
Two weeks ago My family met there for breakfast. The following things were wrong
The order was placed to go because the cashier decided that it was easier for them.
My brother ordered three eggs. He was given two because the cashier did not want to charge him 4 bucks for an egg.
I ordered a media noche. I was given bread and ham. No cheese no mustard no pickles, nothing.
I went again today….
My media noche had 2 slices of cooked ham and a bunch of dry pernil. What an insult. Im used to the special ham. It was awful. The order was to go. No napkins no straws for the juice, nothing again.
I payed 18.00 for a terrible meal.
Something is wrong with La Ceiba.
Please help the staff go back to the high quality establishment you once had.
La Ceiba is a great and authentic Spanish Bakery experience in Puerto Rico. Food is consistently great. I love their “Pan Gallego” and their fresh octopus. Quesitos (a Puertorrican must) are fantastic as well.
Don’t come here on a rush if you are eating in. You will have plenty of time to connect and appreciate life.
On our trip to Puerto Rico and my daughter found this place by mistake. It was one of the best mistakes ever. The people were just friendly and beautiful. It was one of the best bakeries I have ever been in. Keep up the great job. It's definitely one of the places I'll visit when I'm back on the Island. I'll be recommending this to all the people I know who will be vacationing here.
Very expensive for lower quality food and quantity
20 to 40 by person for a bother of water and a sandwich 4 slide of ham 1 egg and I slide of cheees and a small coffee without milk
