Panificadora La Anita is a working bakery on Calle Sonora in Hermosillo's Villa de Seris neighborhood, an area regarded as the birthplace of the coyota, a flat, flaky pastry filled traditionally with piloncillo (unrefined cane sugar) and often with cheese as a savory variation. The bakery produces coyotas de piloncillo and coyotas de queso alongside general pan dulce, all made and sold from a counter-service setup rather than a sit-down dining room.

Panificadora La Anita is a working bakery on Calle Sonora in Hermosillo's Villa de Seris neighborhood, an area regarded as the birthplace of the coyota, a flat, flaky pastry filled traditionally with piloncillo (unrefined cane sugar) and often with cheese as a savory variation. The bakery produces coyotas de piloncillo and coyotas de queso alongside general pan dulce, all made and sold from a counter-service setup rather than a sit-down dining room. There is no table service, no reservation system, and no dress code beyond what is appropriate for a neighborhood bakery visit; customers order at the counter and either eat pastries on the spot at a small table area or take them away. The atmosphere is informal and centered on the smell of fresh-baked bread rather than any curated ambience. Because coyotas are historically tied to Villa de Seris specifically, this bakery is frequently mentioned by residents and visitors researching where to buy an authentic version rather than a mass-produced supermarket substitute. Morning and early afternoon visits typically find the widest selection, since popular items can sell out later in the day.
