Pekara Bake Shop & Cafe

Nice restaurant with amazing pizza and the kebab wrap was also delicious. Only thing was the chocolate cake was very dry, but otherwise, I came earlier and had the carrot cake which was superb. It was probably just a fluke since everything else was good. It is a bit costly after tip an tax but great food.

I recently dined at this amazing restaurant, and I must say it was a delightful experience. The pizza was truly great, and the croquettes were absolutely fantastic. I can't emphasize enough how delicious the spinach dip was - it's a must-try, 100% recommended.

This restaurant is definitely one of the standout spots in Juan Dolio. If you happen to be in the area, don't miss the chance to visit! The nighttime ambiance is simply beautiful, especially at the back of the restaurant, which is thoughtfully well-lit - perfect for taking memorable pictures.

best breakfast ive had in DR on our 2 week vacation. Got the quinoa salad which was a 8.7/10 lime wouldve elevated it, the hummus was a 10/10 they nailed it. Esposa got american breakfast pancakes, eggs, bacon she really enjoyed it. highly recommend - overall = 8.9/10. Been here 3 times in 2 days if that makes this review any better

Had several meals here with my husband, food is always good, very nice and friendly employees. Definitely on an other level than the most of the places in Juan Dolio. recommended!!

EXCELLENT PLACE!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
Located at the entrance to the Metro Country Club in Juan Dolio.
This was our go to spot for breakfast for sure. Very good menu, excellent omelettes, very good coffee. Definitely the best breakfast spot in the area, and also very good lunch & dinner menu. We went here for breakfast every morning (except Tuesday when they are closed - they should open every day lol). I tried different omelettes each day, and was always satisfied. Loved the croissants, nice and fresh & not greasy - plain and also with cheese, ham, ham & cheese, etc. We had dinner here as well and were not disappointed. I had the ceviche and a steak dinner, and we go a few pizza pies for the table. Everyone at table enjoyed the food immensely. They have a brick oven outside and make wonderful pizza. I was actually surprised being from NYC i know good pizza and this was top notch. When you are sitting inside you can see they have a lot of people taking pizza pies to go. Excellent thin crust and toppings, baked perfect in the brick oven. Nice atmosphere, with indoor air conditioned seating and nice seating outdoors too. Excellent food, good portions, reasonable prices, and awesome pizza make this a go to spot. The owners are very friendly and make sure your enjoying your meal. Very clean and comfortable. Highly recommend this place for breakfast/lunch/dinner. Also the best pizza in the area, so don't forget to take a pizza pie home. They also have a nice location just outside the Marbella complex which serves coffee and croissants if your going to eat light. My only issue i wish they took American Express, but they do take other credit cards. Will be coming back again for sure!

Great location with a very cozy atmosphere. Reasonable prizing and good food quality/ taste. Will be back for sure.

Unbelievable food. The service was absolutely 100% perfect.. You must eat here when in Juan Dolio. If not make the drive down there please.

Excelente food and service. Had the Spanish omelet and it was pretty good, then washed it down with a cappuccino.

Good food. Decent prices. Nice ambience. Would return and recommend to others.

Great pizza ! Great salads! Friendly staff und a lovely outdoor patio in the evening. Prices very reasonable! Sangria was delicious!

Love coming here when I visit. Very attentive. Food was fresh and delicious. Wait staff attended to every need. Portion sizes were good and prices very reasonable.

The Montecristo French toast were very good.

Pekara bake shop was just what we needed for a nice meal at just the right time. My family was feeling a bit homesick as we have an extended stay in Juan Dolio when we found Pekara Bake Shop on google. I sent a facebook message and it was quickly replied to by the owner. They took my order in English over whatsapp, sent me a photo of the total on the cash register and our food was ready to be picked up in just 25 minutes. The owner checked back in via whatsapp a few hours later to check on how it was. We had burgers, rice, mashed potatoes, fries, pepperoni pizza and carnivore pizza. i own a wagyu beef business and we are very particular about our burgers and the whole family enjoyed them.

What a great experience.

Excelent place to eat, great environment. Inside Metro Country Club, to go there you just say to the security guard "I want to go to Pekara"

The breakfast was delicious! Great service, warm atmosphere and delicious coffee and desserts!!! I loved that they opened early.

Great place! We walked in and immediately noticed the wonderful smells of fresh pastries. We made our selections and were amazed at the taste. Great food! Highly recommend!

Best place in Juan Dolio.
It is very difficult to find a place in this city with a friendly staff, great prices and delicious food.
Another great part of Pekara is that the music that you listen while eating is not a radio station playing in the background with loud scratching sound like in other places !!!
5/5 Highly recommended !!!

Pizza here is fantastic. Service has always been great and prices in my opinion are quite reasonable. Mosquitoes can be annoying if there after dark. Have eaten here many times and will go again on my next visit.

SO YUMMY! Muy rico! Shrimp pizza & the quinoa salad are to die for. El final!

Always fresh food and great environment.
