Just Down the Road: 4 of the Best Bakeries in Odessa, TX

La Fiesta

While enjoying the ease with which your new 2023 Kia Sportage navigates rocky roads, hills, and valleys with its all-terrain tires and X-pro trims, drop by La-Fiesta, situated at 327 East Ann Street, to pick up your favorite freshly-baked sweet bread. Owned by Jesse Arandondo and his family, they’ve been providing Odessa with the finest Mexican pumpkin empanadas, burritos, marranitos, and cinnamon jelly rolls for generations, and the best thing is these all come at a very reasonable cost.

Marquez of Odessa 

Not too far away, at 620 North County Road, Marquez also provides mouthwatering baked Mexican goods with the menu boasting burritos, baked in-store on fresh, telera bread with a choice of chicken, pork, or beef, with options to include beans, guacamole, mayonnaise, lettuce, tomato, and pico, if any of those tickle your taste buds.

If you’re a hungry worker, have your family in tow, or even if you’re passing by alone, call here for barbacoa eggs for breakfast, or Mexican omelets served with sausage, pico de galo, cheese, beans, and tortillas. Little mouths are also well-catered for by the children’s menu; they can pick from quesadillas or enchiladas, filled with beef, chicken, or cheese.

Fat Jack’s

Fat Jack’s, located at 309 West Yukon Road, is truly one of Odessa’s hidden gems. Choose from sweet, fruity, delicious kolaches, or cinnamon rolls as big as your dinner plate. They’re open from 6:30 am to 3:00 pm on Mondays to Thursdays, 6.30 am to noon on Fridays, and are closed on weekends, so visit there bright and early through the week to ensure no one misses out.

Venture along to L’Oven Expressions at East 42nd Street to pick up your favorite from a wide variety of cupcakes and cookies. You can also pre-order custom cakes here, catering to those with a traditional palette, and to adventurous eaters too, with orders taken for anything from an indulgent chocolate pecan bundt cake to deluxe signature cookies.

Pre-order for special occasions like Mother’s Day when a pretty bouquet of cookie popsicles is guaranteed to raise a smile, or treat your favorite teacher to eight delicious apple and chalkboard-themed cookies at the beginning or end of the school year.

Now you know exactly where to stop in your exhilarating 2023 Kia Sportage for the most delectable baked treats.
