My go-to bakery. Love everything, but especially the Chinese almond cookies and the honey bran muffins. Service is always excellent and the staff is always friendly. So many choices that it's hard to choose each time I go there. read more

I love Schat's Bakery and have always enjoyed their products, so this review is specifically about customer service, not the food. I stopped in to purchase a coffee cake to take to someone. I was helped by a woman who, from the moment I approached the counter, never looked at me or acknowledged me. She continued talking to a coworker, with her head turned away from me the entire time. At one point, the coworker even came over to show her something on her personal phone, and the conversation continued. She eventually bagged my coffee cake without saying a word, still never making eye contact, and handed it to me. I actually had to lean toward her until she finally looked at me. I said, "Thank you," and walked away. I completely understand that working with the public can be challenging, and everyone has bad days. But this was more than just being having a bad day--it was zero effort to acknowledge or interact with a customer. Schat's is a place I really like, which is why this experience was so disappointing. If you're going to work in a customer-facing position, please make an effort to be courteous, acknowledge your customers, and provide at least the basic level of customer service they deserve. read more

I've been told to try Schats by so many people and I can see why. Their service is so genuinely friendly. It's a cozy, clean environment with a small town feel. There are a few people set up on laptops working and others meeting for a quick coffee date. I love the overall vibe. read more

Little quaint sandwich shop with some fair prices! Girlfriend and I stopped by here for lunch, because we were surprised to see a Schats bakery outside of California. I love Eric Schats bakery out in Bishop, CA, but this is one here is a little different. They're still related, but operating at a smaller scale. We had shared the pastrami sandwich, and enjoyed it! Everything tasted fresh and good came out quick. If you're looking for a good and quick bite, i definitely recommend come here. Plus, they also a nice selection of breads and desserts. read more

Paul Schat's Bakery - Apple walnut salad - Bakeries Near Me - Carson City, Nevada

Stopped here to check out this well-known bakery. Lots of bread, pastry and sandwich options as well as fresh squeeze OJ, coffee, and tea drinks. Enjoyed the cheddar jalapeno bagel (but they ran out of cream cheese?) and cute banana marzipan. The cherry turnover was fine but not memorable. But what I really enjoyed was a pre-made "express" sandwich that had ham, cheese, and buttered bread. Completely delicious, and something I'd come back for. Also, picked up a jar of Scandinavian Delights orange marmalade ... my absolute favorite brand and a nice surprise to find on sale here. Despite a fairly busy morning, everything was clean, and we were able to find a table without a problem. Nice atmosphere and plenty of parking nearby. A little surprised there wasn't a breakfast menu, but will have to come back and explore more of the lunch menu options like the tri-tip sandwich. read more

This bakery is fire. They have absolutely one of the best Cuban Sandwiches I have ever had. It is Served on our fresh French baguette with black forest ham, roasted pork loin, Swiss cheese, our special homemade sauce & pickles, served with fries. The Jalapeño Burger was the best burger I have ate in Carson City. The bagels are the freshest bagels. They offer pastries, cookies, fresh baked breads, etc. They have amazing small town friendly service. The prices are average for today's pricing. The dining area and it is your classic bakery feel. The Cuban sandwich's baguette struggled to hold up to the sauce. The portions are large so bring your appetite. read more

Such a hidden gem! Northern Nevadans and locals alike know where to stop when looking for a special treat or sweet indulgence when in the area. Being from Reno, I always stop by Paul Schat's whenever I drive through Carson City to grab a bakery treat or fresh artisan bread for the upcoming week. The bakery offers a comfortable seating area and an array of freshly made sandwiches/burgers, breakfast & coffee, a WIDE array of baked goods, seasonal treats, cakes, artisan breads - you name it! The bakery is tucked away in the back of a shopping center and is open 7 days a week - 6am to 6pm! Definitely recommend the artisan breads, my family loves the artisan Sourdo & Asiago Romano cheese bread, coconut macaroons, croissants, array of coffee cakes, and strudels! We have yet to try something we do not enjoy. Definitely recommend if you are looking to fulfill a baked goods craving or looking for a unique local gift for friends and family. read more

Still have not eaten lunch here, but I keep going back for the desserts. The place is always busy, which is great. Food always looks amazing as I scan plates walking in. It always smells amazing inside and the fresh bread everywhere. The case of delicious sweets. We always get 1 slice of black out cake. They run out of this one often. I love cream puffs. My mom used to make these from scratch when I was growing up. These are as close as I have ever had from a bakery. I've never been fond of chocolate on my cream puffs, but they use like a ganache abd it is soo good. Need tp go try a lunch 1 day for sure. read more

If you want delicious pastries and breads, this is the place for you! I have NEVER had anything less than awesome here!

Excited to try the new bakery for lunch. Nevada Trip Tip was a ho hum chewy disappointment, definitely a hard pass. The saving grace was the wonderful lady who took the order in her stylish glasses so friendly and welcoming! And the fries were crunchy yet no Heinz tomato ketchup. The cakes at the entrance looked interesting. The Italian cookie was too sweet like dosing on spoonfuls of sugar. Salty and sweet a balance would have been nice. The raspberry center got stuck to the parchment paper bag. The Tiramisu was ok, nothing to write home about let alone finish. The extra hot latte was as expected. Extra Hot and delivered the caffeine dose needed. Ambiance is nice. We would have liked to be regulars. For the cakes or honey. Found the carne asada tacos at Centro market (first time) more delicious, 20 mins after sharing a sandwich here. Go there! read more

Came here for lunch when we were on the way to Lake Tahoe. It was in Carson city located inside a plaza. There was also a cafe on the side and when you go further down there's a counter to order sandwiches and food. The staff was helpful when we were deciding between 2 sandwiches. Facility was clean and felt homey inside. We got the Reuben stacker which has pastrami and sauerkraut. We shared so it was the perfect amount since it was a bigger portion. Overall delicious and perfect place to get a quick sandwich! read more

I sent my husband to this bakery earlier this week for their fresh baked blueberry & bran muffins. I ate the blueberry (dense, lacks flavor); but the honey bran was flattened on the top, gooey, it was burnt all the way around the edges and globs of honey were exposed. I could not believe he was actually charged money for that muffin. The whole lot should have been thrown out. I ended up with horrific abdominal pain in the hospital ER for better than four hours. I don't know what was wrong with those muffins but it's going to cost my family $2650 (out of pocket) for sampling them. read more

Pretty underwhelming! My first visit and disappointing sandwich! The tomato could not have been sliced any thinner, a single leaf of lettuce. I had high hope as I have heard Schats has excellent sandwiches, but for $12.95, I'll go to Jimmy John's instead! read more

Love looking at bakeries so came in and what a treat! Fresh crusty ciabatta rolls I can't wait to eat with salted butter! We also bought an almond bear claw. I can't wait to try it. They do have a larger one available for like $10. I would have bought it but afraid I would eat it all myself. Me and the hubby shared the rueben sandwich made in their pumpernickel rye bread . YUM! read more

Paul Schat's Bakery has been one of my longtime favorites and for good reason! Their sandwiches are amazing, fresh, hearty, and generously loaded with quality ingredients. The peanut brittle is absolutely bomb, and the chili or ham croissants are not only delicious but picture-perfect when they're not stacked and flattened. The chocolate croissants? Divine. Warm one up and pair it with one of their lattes or a fresh-squeezed orange juice; pure bliss. Their wedding cookies and chocolate-dipped macaroons are equally delicious, and the Easter bread is something special you can't really find anywhere else; soft, sweet, with dried fruit and that perfect glaze on top. The lovely young ladies who work there are always respectful, helpful, and consistently offer awesome customer service, it's clear they take pride in what they do, and it really adds to the warm, welcoming vibe of the place. My only complaint and reason for my 4 star is the ordering system. You can't pay over the phone or reserve something for same-day pickup, which makes it tough for anyone who works a standard 7:30-5 job. By the time you get there, the popular items are often sold out. I understand wanting to give walk-in customers a fair shot, but it'd be great if they offered a way to pre-purchase items without having to place a special order. All in all, it's a charming local bakery with incredible quality, just plan ahead or go early if you've got your heart set on something specific! read more

I have never been a huge fan of Paul Schats in Carson City, but that's not to say that it's not a good spot. While I personally may not love it- I totally get the appeal and will give Schats credit where it's due! Schats has been a staple in Northern Nevada for a long time with locations all over the area. The Carson City location is located in the Carson Mall with its own exterior entrance- a plus for sure! There are many baked goods included breads, cookies, cakes, pies, and other sweet treats available to go. They also have coffee here and a few small tables to eat in if you fancy. There is also a full lunch menu and many items can be very tasty. I have had a few of the sandwiches and have enjoyed all of them, but nothing has blown my socks off. Most recently I enjoyed the chicken club and fries. The bacon and chicken were both well prepared and served on very nice, fresh bread. Sauced up, just how I like it. My issue with Schats is that I just don't love anything so much that I crave coming back. I have not had anything bad but nothing blows me away. I also think the pricing here is high. They charge extra for things like sweet potato fries- which is fine- but $6 extra!? You can add on some "assorted cookies" to your meal for $4 but it's just two OK tasting cookies. Maybe it's reasonable to some, but the pricing seems high to me. I get sticker shock nearly every time. I go back to Schats because the people are nice and everything is good most of the time. When I am with a group and someone suggests to eat here- I won't turn it down, but I think other bakeries and sandwich shops in the area are certainly comparable. Go and enjoy and keep an open mind. I'm sure something will tickle your fancy at Paul Schat's Bakery! read more

1/19/2025: First-Born Daughter wanted taking me to Paul Schat's Bakery while visiting Carson City. Aside, Daughter and I ate a couple pastries, I drank coffee while she drank hot chocolate, and we both bought several bake goods for our humble abodes in order, inhaling at our leisure. BTW: The nut pastry was DA BOMB~gotta eat just one and buy another nut pastry for an inhalation session later; the nut pastry wasn't inundated with a sugar overload--it was perfectly delectable! read more

What a fantastic place!! Love their baked goods!! Today (1/20/25) they were running a special, if you spend $20 you get a package of 4 large sugar cookies free. I ordered a cinnamon roll, nut roll and 2 loaves of bread. The cinnamon roll was good tho not as gooey as I would have liked. The nut roll on the other hand was fantastic... it wasn't really gooey but the nut roll has so many nuts on it. Wow... epic!! The loaves of bread were great! Sourdough wasn't as sour as I like but it was fresh and delicious with only 5 ingredients. I also got the walnut and raisin bread also excellent!! They serve lunch which I didn't get this time but I will be back to check that out!! read more

Amazing food! First thing you notice is the smell of fresh bread. We had the tri tip and the Dutch tip sandwiches and they were delicious.

This was my first time, I enjoy almond croissants so it's my go-to. You order from the counter, the lady was friendly and helpful. I also bought a bag of peanut brittle. The almond croissant was okay. It was not your normal croissant shape. I did enjoy the peanut brittle. The seats were comfortable and there is a station for plastic wear and the did have silver wear too read more

Come here at least once a week! Friendly staff and fresh pastries! Lunch menu available as well!

We purchased 2 elephant ears to take back home. While eating in the car we were eating paper... both pastries in were covered with paper on the backside. Did nobody notice or care to take the paper off of the pastry? read more

I may say, best bakery, breakfast, and lunch spot in Carson. We ordered cinnamon buns, ham and cheese croissant, and pizza bagel with cream cheese. All the bread we bought tasted freshly baked, moisted, and soft; the ham and cheese croissant was oozing with cheese, it was so good; the croissant was the best I had so far, the dough was soft and moist, the frosting tasted more cream cheese, and it's not too sweet, which I like. My coffee is really good. I had frosted mint mocha coffee, and what I liked about it was it wasn't too sweet, and I could taste the coffee. The service is efficient, and they are friendly. The ambiance is relaxing. It is really suited for a morning glorious breakfast. I will recommend this!!! read more

Came in after 3 p.m. with my kids, ordered lunch, then tried to buy bread and orange juice. I was told they didn't have any more orange juice, but I overheard the employee say in Spanish that she had already cleaned the machine. I could still see oranges in the juicer. That kind of dishonesty is unacceptable. Just be honest with customers instead of saying you're out. read more

Love this bakery and glad I had to be in Carson today and made the stop! Got a freshly baked loaf of sourdough to go as it's always the best! Soft on the inside and a chewy crust! Ordered a sandwich also with sourdough and got ham with provolone cheese. You pick your vegetables and I got everything but onion and peppers. Also the spicy mustard, mayo and vinegar and oil topped it off! Definitely with the $12, saving half for later! Friendly staff and quick service to go! read more
