The best-know location of the Guatemalteca Bakery is on a somewhat uninviting stretch of Beverly, but once you enter you can forget about the exterior and think only about the delicious food you are about to eat. The long lines and huge crowds at Beverly location are a drawback, so, I go to Guatemalteca Bakery on Santa Monica and Vermont- a new and improved, colorful and equally delicious Guatemalan fast food just as Guatemalteca Bakery on Beverly.
Hordes of people stand in line for good 10-15 mins, but trust me, it's totally worth it. If you don't speak Spanish, you can simply point with your finger at ready-made dishes cafeteria style. They have a very easy menu to choose from antojitos and breakfast to panes (with eggs, beans, chow mein!) and meat dishes. If you feeling comfortable, try to order Guatemalan tamales-chuchitos, and my ultimate favorite - pan con huevo!
(Pan con huevo con todo - bread with scrambled eggs, onion, tomato, lettuce and mayo - but you can tell them no onion, etc, or add avocado, yum)
