Buena Gente Cuban Bakery - Decatur

I found this place in the middle of a strip mall. Parking is tight but it is well worth it. The bakery is small and you cannot dine in but they have some tables outside and the carry out is not bad either. They sandwiches are made fresh to order but thepastries and empanadas are pre made in sit in a warmer. I ordered a beef empanada, pineapple milkshake, and media noche. Thebeef empanada was already made tasted great. I was surprised by the amount of protein packed in the empanada. The pineapplemilkshake was great and simple. Taste like they simply blended some pineapples into milk and ice. The media noche is supposed tobe a cuban with sweet bread but it didn't taste sweet. The cuban was really good. Quite filling. I must return.

I just have to say, WOW! My husband and I just had an amazing lunch. We've had Miami's best, however this for Atlanta was really good! Will be coming back very soon. The food, the service, and location were spot on. The only complaint I have isthey run out of everything early, so go early to get the best in Atlanta. We couldn't wait to eat them.

Great Cuban pastries, bought the guava and guava and cream cheese. Chicken empanada was also good and flavorful. Staff are friendly and service is quick, the place is popular and was packed when I visited. A bit on the pricey side compared to otherCuban bakeries around Atlanta, but seems fit for the location.

I wish I could give more than 5 stars! The people who work here are awesome and the food is incredible! My husband and I recently moved to the neighborhood and have made this our go to spot. Honestly the BEST empanadas and pastelitos I?ve ever had,even better than the places we would go to when we lived in Miami.

I live in the area and have no access to a good Caribbean panaderia (bakery) from PR, Cuba or DR. When we discovered this place, I cannot express how much joy we felt. Now, its become a weekend tradition. The cafe con leche tastes amazing and ham croquettesis by far one of the best I've ever tried. Even though it's Cuban, it really resembles my traditional Puerto Rican food. I willgladly keep coming back.
