Pereira Bakery
Panaderia and Pasteleria Colombiana:
Dora and Miguel Morales opened Pereira Bakery after moving to Greenville from New York eight years ago. With a lifetime of baking experience, they truly understood the need for an authentic Columbian bakery. They have been very successful even with the unusual location on Lee Road off of Wade Hampton Boulevard in Taylors, SC.

Sergio brings out more platters of empanadas for the heated case. Ordering food from these cases brings back fond memories of growing up in Miami Beach, Florida.
Empanadas are yummy treats made with precooked cornmeal, which is traditionally used to make arepas. They’ve got a crispy outer crust and are filled with stewed meat and diced potatoes. Be sure to pour in the homemade sauce- bottles should be on the table!
Freshly baked daily, the empanadas de cambray are stuffed pastries filled with cream cheese and guava. They are reminiscent of guava con queso, a favorite among Miami locals.
They also serve the very popular, bandeja paisa, which is a hearty meal comprising of wide variety of traditional favorites like chicharron, fried egg, plantains, white rice, chorizo, arepa, and beans.

Nara Bautista is a huge fan. “Everything is just so authentic, it’s like going over to your aunt’s house and having a nice warm plate of food. If I’m hungry, the bandeja paisa will always be my favorite. It’s the best Colombian place in town.”
