Introduction
Porto’s Bakery and Cafe presently operates within six Southern California locations — Burbank, Glendale, Buena Park, Downey, Northridge and West Covina — and also maintains a successful line of frozen, shippable desserts.
A new location in Downtown Disney is scheduled to open next year, and the online fanfare has been substantial. For the record, I am a Northridge resident who lives less than 10 minutes away (by car) from my city's Porto's location, and as with the other locations the line out the door is frequently substantial regardless of the time of day.
For an authorized history of the company, reported to have originated from founder Rosa Porto’s love of baking, see here for article on Porto’s webpage, which states: In 1976, Rosa opened her first official storefront, Porto's Bakery on Sunset Boulevard in Echo Park, California. Raul Sr. would help out when not working at another local bakery, and after several years, he was able to join Rosa to continue to grow the business.
The Burbank location can fairly be considered their flagship.
Regarding the upcoming Downtown Disney location, let us explore.
Porto’s, 2024
According to a recent report from KTLA.com, the new bakery will carry on the company's Southern California expansion.
As excerpted from the report: Porto’s Bakery, a Southern California staple known for its Cuban delicacies and baked goods, is slated to open its seventh location at Downtown Disney in 2025, the chain announced... The chain’s Downtown Disney location is slated to be at the former location of La Brea’s bakery near the Esplanade.
Porto’s Bakery will continue a revamp of Downtown Disney's restaurant and shopping district. It should be further noted, though 2025 is tapped for the new bakery's opening, no specific date has yet been publicly targeted.
Conclusion
Porto’s Bakery is a Southern California perennial.
The upcoming opening of the company's Downtown Disney location is a developing story. In the event of pertinent updates to this matter, inclusive of official company announcements of target dates, I will share them here on NewsBreak.
