A Filipino family recipe. Baked fresh every day.

A Filipino bakery cafe in Colorado Springs, from a family baking since 1979.

We bake Filipino bread here every morning, from recipes our family has been refining since 1979. Three generations, one grandmother who got the pandesal exactly right. We are the first bakery on Colorado’s Front Range to bake it fresh every day, here in Briargate, Colorado Springs. Come in — there is no hurry here.

Everything here has a history.

Pandesal in the oven early in the morning. Ensaymada in the flavors our family has always made them. Ube where ube belongs. This is a Filipino bakery, not a Filipino-inspired one. These are our family’s recipes, and we are the ones baking them.

We will be genuinely excited to greet you when you arrive.

Eric and Janel, the third generation of Valerio's bakery owners, are here. So is our team — we teach them the family story before we teach them the register. If you have never had pandesal, someone will tell you exactly what to expect. Nobody here will make you feel like you should already know.

Nobody on the Front Range was baking this. So we did.

Filipino food in Colorado Springs has meant a long drive, your own kitchen, or going without. We knew that, and we decided to fix it here in Briargate — with our family’s name on the door and a recipe we have spent 47 years preserving.

Never had Filipino bread?

Start with the pandesal. Soft, a little sweet, warm from the oven, dusted with fine breadcrumbs. It is what everyone in the Philippines grew up eating with their morning coffee, and it is the easiest possible place to begin. If you want, we will walk you through our entire selection.

A few things to start with.

If you are new to Filipino baking, this is where we would send you first. If you grew up with it — you already know.

Pandesal

Soft, airy rolls dusted in breadcrumbs — the bread every Filipino grew up eating. Out of the oven every morning. Best while it is still warm.

Ensaymada

Soft brioche brushed with butter, dusted with sugar, finished with aged cheese. The bread that started our family’s story.

Ube Latte

Espresso and steamed milk with our housemade ube — the purple yam at the heart of Filipino flavor. Earthy, creamy, and not quite like anything else.

Pandan Latte

Steamed milk with our housemade pandan, a Southeast Asian leaf that tastes like green tea’s warmer, sweeter cousin. Ask for it iced.

What people are saying?

So happy you’re here!
My family first discovered Valerio’s Bakery while vacationing in Las Vegas and Seattle, where we found their delicious baked goods at an Asian grocery store. We loved them so much that I wished we had a Valerio’s in Colorado Springs—and now we do! ❤️ The bread is yummy, soft, and so addictive! I hope they continue perfecting their baking consistency at Colorado’s high altitude while maintaining great customer service and strong community relationships. Colorado Springs is all about community, and once people try these delicious treats, they’ll want to tell others. So happy to have Valerio’s Bakery Cafe here!

The best bread!
I first tried Valerio’s Bakery Cafe’s pandesal and Spanish bread at a pop-up event in Denver, and I was impressed! The texture and flavor are amazing. The pandesal is light and fluffy, with just the right balance of sweetness and saltiness. I also love the Spanish bread and ube pandesal. I’d order these again and again! If you love bread, give Valerio’s Bakery Cafe a try. Their Filipino baked goods offer a delicious twist on everyday bread, and you’re sure to find something you love!

Five stars every time!
Our wonderful neighbors introduced us to Valerio’s Bakery Cafe by bringing us some treats to try. 😊 Everything was deliciously light, not too heavy, and had the perfect flavor! I honestly can’t think of anything they could improve. I’d give them five stars every time! I don’t usually like sweet breads or pastries, but these are so delicious that I tell everyone they need to try them. One visit is all it takes, and you’ll be hooked just like Mike and me! 😁

Fresh and delicious!
I was introduced to Valerio’s Bakery Cafe by my Filipino wife, and I really love the fresh-out-of-the-oven pandesal and other baked goods! You can truly taste the quality and the love the bakers put into everything. I look forward to trying more traditional Filipino baked goods in the future. I’d happily bring these delicious treats to work and share them with my coworkers. Highly recommend giving Valerio’s Bakery Cafe a try!

A taste of home!
As a Filipino, I’m always searching for authentic treats that remind me of home, and I’m so happy I discovered Valerio’s Bakery Cafe! The baked goods are fresh, soft, and full of traditional flavor. The pandesal, Spanish bread, and pan de coco are incredible, but the ube pandesal is absolutely amazing! 💜 My only request is to keep everything fresh and our favorites, especially ube pandesal, fully stocked. If you haven’t visited yet, just go! Try the classics and definitely grab some ube pandesal. You won’t regret it! 🇵🇭🥖💜

I heard about Valerio’s Bakery Cafe through my daughter, and I’m so glad she recommended it! I love the variety and how light, airy, and fluffy all the breads and baked goods are. Gimme chocolate chips! 😂 Seriously, I have no complaints. I’d absolutely encourage everyone to visit Valerio’s Bakery Cafe and try all the delicious treats. You won’t be disappointed!

Simply amazing!
Every Filipino in the US knows Valerio’s Bakery Cafe, so it was exciting to finally have them here in Colorado Springs! ❤️ The baked goods are fresh, yummy, and taste like home. The pandesal especially brings back memories of having it for breakfast with a cup of coffee. My only request is to please stay consistent and keep the authentic flavors we know and love! I encourage everyone to go hungry and try a little of everything. I’m sure you’ll find a new favorite! 😊

Every review gets an answer from us.

Not from a service, not from a template. If you leave us a review — a good one or a hard one — we will read it and one of us will write you back. When something goes wrong we would rather hear it from you than read it later. You will always be one conversation away from the people whose name is on the door.
— Eric & Janel

Come see us.

We open at 6:30 in the morning, Monday and Wednesday through Sunday, closed Tuesdays. There will be something warm waiting.

FAQ

How do I order for a group or an event?

Use the catering page — it has a form built for gatherings, and it gets you to the right answer faster. Give us a little lead time and we will bake for your occasion.

What is pandesal?

Pandesal is the everyday bread of the Philippines — a soft, slightly sweet roll dusted in fine breadcrumbs and baked to a pale gold. People eat it morning, afternoon, and night, usually with coffee. We bake ours every morning, and if you have never had Filipino bread it is the right place to start.

What is ube?

Ube is purple yam. It tastes earthy and creamy with something vanilla behind it, and it turns everything it touches a deep violet. It is one of the defining flavors of Filipino baking. It is in our ube ensaymada, our pan de ube, and our ube latte. If you have never tried it, tell us and we will give you a taste before you buy anything.

Are you the only Filipino bakery in Colorado Springs?

We are the only one baking Filipino bread here every day. You can find Filipino baked goods in a few other places around town — some of them made by local Filipino home bakers we know and think highly of — and we are glad that food is out there. What is different here is that we bake ours in-house, every morning, from our own family’s recipes.

Do you have gluten-free or vegan options?

Very few, and we would rather say so plainly. Traditional Filipino baking depends on wheat flour and dairy — that is where these flavors come from. Ask us before you order and we will tell you honestly what works and what does not. We would rather guide you well than have you drive out here and leave disappointed.

Is this a good place to bring kids?

Yes. We built it for everyone at the table — families, kids, couples, and people who just want a quiet half hour with a book. Watching a kid try pandesal for the first time is one of the best parts of the day.
