Our visit to this establishment was quite pleasant as we indulged in some of their renowned Danish pastries accompanied by a cup of coffee. Help from Sabrina was great; all hands on deck. read more

Unfortunate because it taste good and there's a lot of hype, but... there was a big hair cooked into my cream cheese danish. It was lodged so deeply into the cream cheese there was no other explanation of how it got in there other than the cooking process by the pastry chef... ciao read more

If you like a place to sit and sip cappuccino and pastry this is your place, but not all pastries are sweet. This place didn't satisfy my desire of eating a chocolate filled danish. Instead I ordered "Eclair" and "Custard Puff" which the puff was fulfilling and the other had no flavor. Service is quick and very nice. Next time I will definitely stick to my original plan and order a chocolate danish. read more

We only had 24 hours in Solvang. With so many bakeries within walking distance, we had to be choosy. I'm so glad one of the bakeries we chose was Mill! The princess cake was my favorite. We had a variety of different pastries, jalapeño pizza, ham and cheese croissant, and double espressos. Everything was so good! The line was long but totally worth it. (My husband, dog and I stayed in Solvang for a night right after Christmas. All of the lights and decorations were still up. Such a cute town! Wish we'd stayed longer.) read more

So is a danish just called a pastry in Denmark? This was really good! Great texture, soft, light, and flavorful! read more

This is by far the BEST BAKERY IN SOLVANG!! The food is to die for- they warm up all of the pastries for you and serve them fresh. The ham & cheese croissant is just so delicious!!! They are super warm and friendly there, always very welcoming. The decorations are adorable!!! The animatronics at the front are eye-catching and draw you in. Their to-go cookies are delicious- definitely recommend their bucket of them- they last so so long and stay so delicious. Always come here for breakfast!! This was the best out of all the bakeries we tried :) read more

Compared to other bakeries, I had this place had more interesting pastries. I tried the princess cake and loved it. It is covered with a thin layer of Marzipan and it wasn't too sweet. The other one was a desert that seemed like marshmallow filling. Overall I enjoyed the pastries and my time here. There is fake flower pots hanging from the ceiling. Makes the place very cozy read more

We stopped here based on video reviews we saw and the bakery was very cute inside, but pastries were just OK. Or maybe that's just how Danish baked goods taste to me and I'm just not a huge fan of them? I do think that when you order, it would be nice if they would be warmed up for a fresher taste. Staff is friendly overall and if you dine in, there is a back area to sit. We ordered the apple strudel, lemon danish, cream cheese guava danish. Although all the pastries look flakey on the outside, when you take a bite in, you don't get that desirable crisp and make a little flakey pile on the floor, but it insteads sits flat. Of the three we liked the cream cheese guava best. Lemon was oddly too sweet than tart and the apple tasted from the day before set. read more

Items looked good under glass but were stale and terrible when eaten. Very disappointing. Tried a bear claw, apricot danish and apricot thumbprint cookie. All terrible. read more

Disappointed because the Danish wasn't fresh! The apricot bar was dried out and lacked flavor.

You have to have a Danish pastry when in Solvang! I only went into two of the bakeries, so I don't have a lot to compare against, and I'd already had a breakfast Danish at another bakery, but bought the Guava cream cheese Danish here to take with me to have the following day. It was obviously not going to be as fresh the next day, but I do love guava, and cream cheese, so the pastry still made me happy. I could only wish to have even more of the filling on the Danish. We were feeling like we had purchased enough sweet things over our two days in Solvang, but later regretted that we didn't buy a tin of butter cookies, try one of the French waffles, and splurged on our diets and just bought a few more things to try. When in Solvang, you should have the full experience! This bakery had a nice selection. The Bakery was very central in the middle of town on Copenhagen Street. It had cute, animated characters/bakers in the window, and another inside that sometimes spoke, I believe about the bakery's history, but I was hearing it on my way out. I would happily revisit the Danish Mill Bakery. read more

This bakery has many locations around Solvang. This particular location was busy and they had a bigger selection. They had a great selection of baked goods and I wish I could've tried more but I was so full from breakfast. I saw this unique looking cake and I had to try it. The Princess Cake was absolutely delicious! The marzipan top was tasty and the mousse was light and creamy. The cake itself was not too sweet. The bottom had a nice strawberry filling. I really enjoyed it! The service was okay. Other than that, I recommend going here for some dessert or some danishes. read more

The best almond horn in town. We tried 6 different places (I think we missed esko). They were all good, but this was our personal favorite. A local we talked to also said this was her favorite, though she doesn't go anymore because they don't accept cash now. This almond horn was the most unique in shape (more like a horse shoe than a small crescent), which I think lends to its perfect 1:1 ratio of crunchy outside and doughy inside. Some places were mostly crunch, some were mostly doughy, but this was just right for us. Because of it's larger shape, I think you also get more almond slivers on the outside, which adds an extra crisp to the exterior crunch. The dark chocolate was also the most flavorful to us, though another place used a milk chocolate that I felt was well suited to the horn as well. These also hold up well after two days, probably more but... well, we're out of horns! When we come back, we will try more of what this bakery has to offer. read more

With a plethora of bakeries in Solvang, it's impossible to just pick one. But we did..and I think we made a great choice. Huge selection of baked items and breads..wanted to get everything but instead I chose the solvang cheese cake which was to die for. Perfect amount of fluffiness and cream. I would get that again and again. read more

Such a cute bakery!! I really like their decorations by the window. I feel like I've been transported to Europe. The structure of the cafe is really nice and very much for the gram. As for the pastries. I had their cherry and cheese danish, as well as their chocolate croissant. Cherry and Cheese Danish: It was quite big, and it has a lot of fillings. The ingredients were very fresh and every bite has a nice chew to it. Chocolate Croissant: Like the danish, it was also big. It was flaky and airy which is what I look for in a croissant. The sweetness level was just right and not overpowering. I highly recommend this place for sure if you're gonna come visit Solvang. You definitely will not be disappointed! read more

A visit to Solvang just isn't done without visiting one of their many bakeries and indulging on pastries. We randomly wandered into this shop which was pretty busy, so you know I just had to try it out. There were so many options to choose from that I low key got overwhelmed, but here are the things I randomly selected: Napoleon's hat: not too sweet. I honestly probably wouldn't order this one again just because it was ok. Bar cookie raspberry: I had a bite of this and it was pretty good. Not overly sweet, nor was the raspberry that fake sweet flavoring, so that was a huge plus. Cream cheese guava danish: I thought this was really good, I know this is probably blasphemous, but I should've folded this in half so that I could get both he cream cheese and guava in each bite. Cream cheese lemon danish: Similarly to the above, it was really good! The lemon flavor was perfectly tart French waffle: crumbly, flaky, yummy Classic flodeboller: the way the lady described this to me was that it was like a marshmallow and she wasn't wrong. If you're into that, then you'd love this. For me it was good enough. Overall, 5 stars because everything was good and I'd go back because I want to try more. The staff is helpful and patient which is nice especially because I know it gets hectic. There are also some seating available inside the restaurant if you want to enjoy your goodies right then and there. read more

Extremely varied selection of baked goods and chocolates. They have tables so you can eat pastries there. Always a crazy line when I go.

Overhyped place! We took couple of danish & pastries. Pistachios pastry was super hard & hardly had any flavor. Danish flavors were reasonable. Service- servers were rude. You have to ask for cutlery. There is no counter to pick it up yourself. They dont clean the table for you. +Point 1. Variety of options to chose from -Point 1. No calorie count for the items 2. Service is OK. read more

Danish Mill Bakery is such a gem! I had something similar to an almond croissant, and it was absolutely delicious--flaky, buttery, and perfectly sweet. The service was wonderful; the staff was so kind, and they didn't even accept tips when I paid! Beyond the great pastries, it's also a nice spot to get some work done, with a cozy and welcoming atmosphere. read more

After trying several different bakeries in Solvang, Danish Mill clearly stood out as our favorite. Their pastries have a richness and fluffiness that the others just couldn't match. What impressed me most was the attention to detail in their flavors. Their custard has a hint of citrus that elevates it beyond the standard. The Danish Waffle hit that perfect balance of crispy exterior and soft interior, with sweet cream and raspberry that made it memorable. Don't miss their Kringle... each bite gives you a different experience as you taste the fruit, cheese, and almond elements. Their owl eyes cookies and chocolate-dipped clamshells are standouts too - soft with centers that literally melt in your mouth. While service can be busy at times, the quality of their baked goods makes it absolutely worth it. If you're in Solvang and want a great Danish pastry experience, this is the place to go. read more

Grabbed a quick cheese danish here and ever since then the only thing I've been thinking about are danishes. It was so good, freshly baked and nice and flakey. Plus the animated chefs baking in the front is so cute and iconic in Solvang! ig: @cravingswithcat read more

We stopped by Danish Mill Bakery while visiting Solvang and it was such a cute little spot. They have a huge variety of sweet treats to choose from, which made it hard to pick because everything looked so good. The bakery definitely gives off warm, welcoming vibes and feels like a classic Solvang stop. We enjoyed our treats and would definitely come back again when we're in the area. read more

Loved this place. Very cute. Decorations and lots of choices. Did the French waffle, macaroons, and a sugary crispy treat. This place got packed but the line moved quickly. You should do it. read more

This is one of many bakeries in Solvang! I went here because I saw it come up on TikTok a lot haha. You walk in and see the massive assortment of goodies on your left; I was overwhelmed and ended up getting a chocolate croissant. I may have chosen the wrong thing because it was underwhelming and wasn't as flaky and warm as I would have liked. Tip: if you decide to eat your goodies inside they serve it on plates with cutlery! That service was great! read more

Great place to grab a quick pastry, coffee or breakfast sandwich in the morning while exploring Solvang. They have a great selection of fruit and cheese Danish combos. I have never seen them together in one pastry. The Danish Mill has "THE" book with the Aebleskiver recipe from hundreds of years ago enshrined in glass near the back of the restaurant. So, because of that you know this place is good. Besides the pastries and bread, they also have a large selection of chocolates for sale and tubs of take & bake sugar cookies for souvenirs. Please note Aebleskiver will not be made before 11am. Sad face! Enjoy!!! read more

They have such cute window props! Must take a video when passing by. The line was much longer for this bakery but then again, it's in the center of the plaza. Even though the line was long, it went by quickly. I decided to get a guava and cream cheese danish and a ham and cheese croissant. I do wish I got more than one ham and cheese croissant. The croissant was very flakey! It also had enough ham and cheese for every bite. As for the guava and cream cheese danish. You need to get this if you're a fan of guava! It complimented one another and tasted amazing. read more

Of all the bakeries we tried in our last 2 visits this bakery had the best danishes and coffee. This last week I also tried this massive cream puff and it was delicious!

I don't understand the hype here to be honest. My friends and I tried two stores, and we were told Danish Mill Bakery is the best bakery in Solvang. Well, I was thoroughly disappointed. I had ordered the cream cheese, raspberry Danish, and a custard cream puff. I don't feel the pastries were flaky the way I was expecting, and in fact, the pastries were flat and stale in a way. The cream was too sweet, so it didn't balance the flavors for me. I am quite a snob when it comes to pastries/baked goods, and this unfortunately did not hit the spot. Customer service was mediocre. Unfortunately, I can't see myself coming back if I am ever in the area again. read more
