The long-awaited opening is finally here! La Casita Bakeshop, the James Beard Finalist and bakery that stole our hearts in Richardson, has officially opened at the Half Price Books flagship in Dallas, taking over the cozy spot that was once Black Forest Coffee. So, if you love coffee, pastries, and books, this spot is for you!

LA CASITA

We’ve been La Casita fans since day one, and now, one of our favorite bakeries is bringing its magic to Dallas! La Casita, founded by the incredibly talented James Beard-nominated baker Maricsa Trejo and her husband Alex Henderson, is known for its mouthwatering croissants, cruffins, and daily seasonal pastries, and has also recently expanded to serving sandwiches and brunch too! (Try the Pork Belly Sandwich or Chilaquiles!)

NEW AT HALF PRICE BOOKS

La Casita is officially open at the Half Price Books flagship on NW Highway, so now you can sip on their signature Turkish latte (seriously, it’s amazing) while flipping through your latest read! It’s a match made in heaven for bookworms and pastry lovers alike!

 

WHAT TO ENJOY

Expect a lineup of their famous pastries, like flaky croissants, cruffins, muffins, cinnamon rolls, and more, plus a full drink menu including matcha, espresso, lattes, and more! With plenty of indoor and outdoor seating, it’s the perfect spot to cozy up with a good book or get some work done while enjoying your favorite treats!

And PS, we heard that brunch is coming soon, too! 

 

TIKI BAR BY NIGHT

By mid-fall, La Casita is turning its coffee shop into a vibrant, Mexican tiki bar by night! La Tiki Paisa will serve up a fusion of Mexican, Pacific Islander, and Asian flavors in both their food and drinks! Expect mezcal and tequila cocktails, and dinner items like chicken pibil wrapped in banana leaves, kimchi carbonara, and barbacoa buns!
