I use to go to this place almost everyday back in the day before work!! Wow they have upscale the place!! Looks beautiful!!! Miss stopping by and grabbing their sausage kolaches! Absolutely amazing!!!!! read more

The original Richmond Avenue location of the Kolache Shoppe in Greenway Plaza has been a beloved neighborhood staple since 1970, maintaining a stellar reputation for its light, cloud-like dough. Returning here always feels like coming home, and a recent stop proved that their high standards haven't wavered a bit over the decades. From the iconic fruit fillings to hearty, savory collaborations like the Pinkerton's brisket kolache, the flavors are exactly as exceptional as I remembered. It is comforting to know that even as Houston constantly changes, this iconic local spot still delivers absolute perfection in every bite. read more

My supervisor brought Kolache Shoppe breakfast for my team one morning and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. I tried the brisket and egg kolache and a sweet strawberry pastry. The savory kolache was packed with meat and stuffing which made for a really hearty breakfast. The bread itself was soft and sweet, similar to a Hawaiian bun. I remember not liking the sweet kolache that much, it was a bit dry and too sweet for my tastebuds. I'll stick to the savory options and am looking forward to the next time I can pop into the store to grab some breakfast. read more

My mother (97) and I were planning to shop at whole east provisions on Friday. We drove in from Friendswood arriving at 10:05 to find that they were closed for inventory until noon. I googled coffee shops downtown and saw the Kolache Shoppe and knew we had to come. We parked in front and they saw me get mom into a wheel chair and greeted us by holding the door open for us. The kolaches were outstanding (I know a bit about kolaches being a chef and frequenting the shops in West, Texas). The coffee was excellent and the counter people were friendly and knowledgeable. We will recommend them and come back again read more

do I recommend this place? hell yeah I recommend this place, I could even say best kolaches, line moves pretty fast, and plenty of regulars coming in and out of here. the bread is good, and they fill everything to the BRIM. they have brisket bbq with and without jalapeño, and also sausage egg and cheese with and without jalapeño. im not into sweet kolaches sorry guys. but if you want to bring breakfast for the office, this is perfect but for a small office. I actually just bought two kolaches and ate them for lunch. they heated up perfectly. sometimes, ill freeze them and bring them to family that live out of town that really crave or want some kolaches, bc remember guys, not every states has kolaches. I have read the negative reviews, but I also have came here for the last like uhmmmm 5 years, I have also went to their other locations too, this location is the most convenient for me. I have only had one negative experience which was not on their part, but sometimes they do burger collabs with burger chan, burger bodega, pinche burger and etc, and there wasn't enough burger meat and I was a little sad but totally not on them, that just means I need to go to burger bodega and get some double smash patties. they always ask if you want your order heated, and have these little stickers so you know which is which. they do have a little fridge if you need water and etc. read more

This is not a critique of the food (it's great!). Rather, it's a critique of the common issue of getting order right and it's the #1 reason I refuse to tip on counter service. Specifically, I ordered 4 of one type of Kolache and 4 of another type. I got home to find 1 of the former and 4 of the latter. Shame on me for not checking the order, but they've got one primary job. I'm not a low-talker, so I'm confident I was clear. It doesn't take much to clarify if you don't hear the order. read more

I was visiting family from California and didn't know what a Kolache was until my aunt took me here. I was able to try the egg and cheese Kolache, and man were they delicious! I devoured two within minutes! Service was great and the shop was a cute mom and pop shop. Can't wait to come back to try their other pastries here... so yummy! read more

I found this place on google and tried it this morning and was so impressed! I got the large sausage egg and cheese and it was so fresh tasting and delicious! read more

The savory kolaches are so good! My favs are bacon, egg and cheese, sausage egg and cheese, and brisket and egg. I didn't like any of the sweet ones - even the special praline one. The sausage kolaches are a modest size but the kolaches with egg are filling. I am not a fan of boudin kolaches. Nonetheless, I will definitely return and recommend. read more

I love kolaches and klobasnek. Klobasnek you ask. So a little history lesson. I was raised in a Czech community SW of Houston. As a kid in high school, I would stop off at several ladies house on the way to school and pickup trays of home made kolaches. The smells were amazing and all the different flavors was amazing. These all had fruit fillings. A kolache has fruit filling. A klobasnek has a meat filling. So all these kolache stops and shops and factories should be called the Klobasnek Place. But kolache is easier to say I guess. So on with the review. I typically use the Kolache Factory for breakfast runs to my customers. But this morning I googled KF and the Kolache Shoppe came up first and me not paying attention, selected it and didn't realized the mistake until I pulled into the parking lot. But I was there so in I went. I got 1/2 dz sausage/egg/chz and 1/2 dz brisket (that was new to me). A bit more $$ than KF, but not bad. One I got to customers ofc and tried a brisket one, my eyes were open to the difference. OMG this was so good. The briskets were gone on a minute. The others in a few mins. These have to be the best strait up klobasnek I've ever had. They may not have as many choices as KF, but the quality is so much better. And the do have kolaches as well - cream cheese is my fav. read more

I can't say I'm exactly a kolache expert, but these are definitely the best kolaches I've ever had! We came in on a Saturday morning around 10am, and they were still fully stocked. I ordered a brisket, egg, cheese, & jalapeño kolache, a small sausage kolache, and a S'mores kolache. The savory ones were heated up upon request, free of charge. The brisket kolache was heavenly--such rich flavors and well-stuffed, too. The S'mores kolache was perfectly sweet. I thought all the prices were very fair and the service was quick and friendly. And just FYI, it is a small shop with no chairs/tables, so take-out only. Overall, highly recommend! read more

To me this is the best Kolache shoppe in the city. I just wish they would bring the straight brisket back. You can't beat their bacon, sausage or ham and Swiss. They have maintained some of the allure from when I was a kid. The microwave is an aight touch but if they can figure out a better warming system that would be gold. The cinnamon rolls are good too: Definitely a Houston classic. read more

Great kolache spot for a quick breakfast, love that they also warm it up for you. I tried the egg & cheese rancheros, brisket jalapeno, sausage egg and cheese, bacon egg and cheese, and potato. The sausage egg and cheese was my favorite with a good balance of fillings. read more

I saw all the stuff they make and had to visit. Brisket from Pinkerton's bbq with cheese and jalapenos in a kolache/klobasniki....yes please! I saw they used Prasek's venison pork sausage in another tasty kolache/klobasniki....got this one with cheese and jalapeno too....both of these are amazing. We've been big fans of Pinkerton's and Prasek's, now we're big fans of Kolache Shoppe. They have two other locations I'll have to try. Friendly people work here. The only hitch is this shopping center has a full parking lot most of the time. read more

I'm giving this place 5 stars simply because when they advertise a sausage and cheese kolache; it's ACTUALLY a sausage! It's so gross to order a sausage and cheese kolache and get a weenie. I haven't had a great sausage and cheese kolache since I lived in Round Rock so this is my new favorite place read more

Not being from Houston, I was very unsure of what to pick up for a quick breakfast. I decided upon this place hoping for a yummy kolache and they delivered. I got the sausage, cheese and jalapeño and it was fresh out of the oven & the bread itself was so soft. Overall - service was good but when we showed up at 11, we had to wait 15-20 minutes for select kolaches because majority of them were out for the day. (That's why I took away one star) read more

Kolache Shoppe - Greenway - Inside area - Bakeries Near Me - Houston, Texas

Omg...I stumbled upon this place and it did not disappoint. I am not a kolache eater but the brisket/egg/jalapeno kolache is amazing. They have a variety of kolaches and danishes. Definitely recommend going early because they do sellout fast. They will even warm it up for you. The staff is always friendly. read more

Tucked in a cozy corner on Greenway... Kolache Shoppe is a nice option for a quick and warm breakfast experience. They close at 12pm, so get there before then!! Good options for kolaches.. plenty of vegetarian and regular meat options such as brisket kolaches and a few other ones. My son loves their egg and cheese kolache and it makes for a perfect grab and go meal every once in awhile. Greenway is a busy area within the inner loop of Houston, so this is as good as it gets for decent and fresh kolaches. They are tender and full of the good stuff. Don't arrive too late as they might run out of your favorite. Kolache Shoppe serves up hot coffee as well so pair it with your order! These are what cozy morning moments are made of. This spot isn't that big...so as mentioned, it's more of a grab and go spot. They have exterior seating outside, but it's limited with just a few tables and chairs. We have visited a few times over the year and have experienced friendly service and warm, fresh items. I have not tried any of their dessert kolaches.. which is a surprise since I have a sweet tooth, but definitely next time. All the fluff and all the good stuff, try it for yourself! This is a nice spot to visit and venture off to your weekend hangouts or errands! read more

Tried this place for the first time this morning. I got 2 sausage, egg, & cheese kolaches. They tasted FRESH and homemade. You can tell they bake these in-house daily. The bread is sweet and fluffy. The coffee was good too. I will be coming back!! read more

Back in Houston for a long weekend.....had to stop in! I miss this so much. Still just as good as it ever was! read more

Kolache Shoppe - Greenway - My favorite kolache! Jalapeño, cheese and Sausage! - Bakeries Near Me - Houston, Texas

You honestly cannot go wrong with anything offered on the menu here. The klobasnek, fruit kolaches, etc. I always try something different every time I visit and I have not been let down. Don't sleep on their seasonal menu either. They also collaborate with local restaurants and I recently tried their Burger Bodega x Kolache Shoppe chopped cheese kolache, and it was mind bendingly delicious. Just imagine a cheeseburger instead of the warm kolache dough. read more

The service are great. The kolache with sausage cheese and jalapeño are super good. I love the store it is super organized and clean. With plenty of parking in the front. Love the store. read more

Kolache Shoppe - Greenway - Bakeries Near Me - Houston, Texas

One of my favorite places to grab breakfast or an early treat. The team is always nice and the line moves quick

Excellent kolaches! They are soft and pillowy without being excessively bready. I had the ranchero with jalapeño, egg, and cheese and the lemon cream. The ranchero had a little kick to it and was nice and cheesy, which I appreciated. The lemon cream was pretty good but the filling is very sugary, just as an FYI for those that are not a fan of much sweetness. I did try a bite of the brisket and jalapeño and it was really good--really high quality brisket. At 9ish on a Saturday, the line wasn't bad. Prices were $12-13 for four kolaches. read more

Have been craving kolaches for a while now. Like a few years. Decided today was the day. This shop was close to me and has been calling my name every time I drive by. Got a cinnamon roll for my kid but she ended up eating my kolaches and leaving me with the cinnamon roll. I'd probably pass on the cinnamon roll. It was ok I guess, but it's no Cinnabon. They're in the back and not on display if you really want one. Kolaches were good. I just had one bite of each because of the kiddo. I couldn't tell which was which though. One was thicker and meatier. I assume it's the venison. Taste was similar though. They got hot sauce (La Victoria) in packets by the registers. Only medium level though. read more

This place is pretty good. I noticed it was constantly full while I was getting my order so it seems popular. I'm sure just like taco trucks everybody in Houston has their favorite Kolache spot and unfortunately this isn't mine. Great service and pretty good product but I would say overall it's pretty MID thus 3-stars. read more

The dough y'all. THE DOUGH. Light, airy, pillowy soft. I've tried a couple of the savory and sweet kolaches and they are all delicious. I tried a cinnamon roll for the first time today and I will get more than one when I visit in the future. Soooo soft with tall layers filled with cinnamon goodness. The glaze is light and delicious on top but I could also take a loaf of the cinnamon roll bread without the glaze and be incredibly happy. read more

kolaches from here are delicious and a great texture. flavorful and yummy. they did not seem to have ice coffee available however.

Had doctors appointments at Houston Methodist so I had to fast this morning. Just wanted a little something something to hold me over till lunch. Got there a little before 11 and they were already nearly sold out. Boy did I get me a little something something! Incredibly fresh. read more

5/5 kolaches - the dough around it is always fluffy and soft. The eggs are so perffecttt too. Every flavor I had was absolutely delicious but the favorite has to be the potato kolache!! Love. read more

Wow! So many fresh and yummy options at this location. Stopped by for a quick bite and was super pleased. Was greeted when I walked in and got a regular sausage & cheese kolache. It was fresh and the dough was fluffy. Will definitely go back and try a sweet kolache they offered (never had!) or go earlier for the ones that ran out already. Also, the guy at the front was very nice and happy. Check this place out if you're in the area and need a delicious breakfast!!! read more

I was expecting the quality of the kolaches to be similar to those from Shipleys and Kolache Factory, so I was pleasantly surprised when it surpassed my expectations. I was blown away by the freshness and quality of these Kolaches. I got the brisket, egg, and jalapeño kolache. The kolache was double the size of other kolaches and was very well stuffed with brisket. The bread itself was airy and light. My friend's loved theirs as well. Make sure to get it warmed up. Will definitely be coming back! read more

Rude costumer service, dirty facilities, the three women working were rude and unprofessional. And the food tasted mid on top of it all.

I've been eyeing Kolache Shoppe for over 2 years now, ever since we moved across the street, and was never able to grab any cause of their hours! 7am-noon weekdays and I think until 1pm on Saturdays, closed Sundays! A bit restrictive for those of us who aren't morning people and have to work during the week but it is what it is! I finally was able to give this place a shot, after we moved away - we had movers coming one morning and I decided to grab everyone breakfast.. finally an opportunity for Kolache Shoppe cause it was early on a weekday! Yay!! The shop is pretty small - you walk in to a right we on the right and a tiny display of Kolaches in front of you. Lots of flavors and options to choose from - sweet and savory, they've got you covered! I grabbed the brisket, jalapeño bacon, normal bacon and eggs, and ham & Swiss! Everything was super moist and delicious! The meats were tasty and the buns were so so soft and buttery! Everyone destroyed them! I can see why they have such high ratings - the shop is cute! Kolaches comes in a cute box! They have drink options as well - including coffee! If hours were a bit more accessible, later into the early afternoon and on weekends, I would probably make the drive and venture here more often! Some of the best Kolaches I've had in town - I enjoyed the brisket one and the bf said he loved the smaller bacon jalapeño ones! The soft bread makes it stand out as well as the flavors of the fillings! read more

Literally, it was such a wonderful quick stop this morning for some of the best kolaches in Houston. The staff moved quickly and the vibes gave all the goodness of the holiday season. I shared the following: egg rancheros, brisket, venison, sausage and cheese, kielbasa, and pralines. read more

For almost 35 years it's been our favorite place for kolaches and cinnamon rolls. My "Bohemian" mom made the best, but these authentic posipka topped treats are as close to hers as I've ever found. read more

If I told you right off that these were the best kolaches in Houston, you might not believe me. First, the dough is perfectly proofed, soft, and with a wonderful, fresh, flavor. The variety is extraordinary. Meats, eggs, cheese, jalapenos, and of course fruit are all there. The fillings are generous. So have I mentioned the fact that these are (by far) the best kolaches in town? Well, come to think about it, they absolutely are! read more

The Kolache Shoppe is my local 'down-the-street' kolache spot. But even if they weren't just around the corner, I would be getting my kolaches from this place! Their approach to kolaches varies a bit from other places... their ingredients and fillings are top notch, and their breading is light and fluffy. My favorite items from Kolache Shoppe include... (1) The Venison Sausage, Jalapeno and Cheese (2) The Kiolbassa Sausage, Jalapeno and Cheese (3) Pinkerton's Brisket Kolache (4) The Breakfast Sausage, Egg and Cheese (5) The Lemon Cream (6) Nutella (7) Poppy Seed They also have seasonal flavors that come and go with the season! read more

Best kolaches in town that's for sure!! I love the variety they offer - they have vegetarian options as well as the regular sausage/cheese ones. My favorite is the ranchero, egg, and cheese kolache! Delicious!! I've sampled the fruit ones (mango, strawberry and cream, blueberry) also and very tasty. It's honestly a little too bready for me, but I get them every now and again. Their chai latte is also a fav here for hot drinks. They have a weekday specials from 11-12, buy one get one free! read more
