Really enjoyed these kolaches. Kolaches are a staple in South Texas and especially in the New Braunfels area near my hometown. There was a great variety to choose from. More importantly the dough was perfect packing just the right crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. We sampled a variety and have to say the sweet ones were off the charts. We had the cinnamon/cream cheese and the strawberry/cream cheese. I would give the cinnamon one the slight edge in preference. For savory the Texan was magical. With a nice beef sausage, jalapeno and cheese it was delightful. The sausage and gravy one was different and a novelty but not our fave. If in the area stop in for a bite of delight. read more

These kolache's are amazing. The bread is soft and perfect. Always a hit when you take a dozen of these to work or to a family party. It's a good idea to order ahead if you're getting more than a dozen or two. Always have them ready on time when I've ordered. read more

Oh my word!!! It had been QUITE some time that I was here last and I'll never let that much time go by again. Hruska's is AMAZING!!! The bacon, egg, cheese, and jalapeno is my favorite. It has so much flavor. They also fill the kolaches with sooo much filling - you really have an amazing bite each time. The dough itself is slightly sweet. They are also served warm which is a wonderful touch. Their special of the month, the Monte Cristo, was truly out of this world and had so much flavor. The Swiss cheese and the homemade raspberry jam were so delicious. I love that they also did turkey and ham. I would highly recommend!! read more

I was informed that this place is a very popular bakery that serves Czech pastries. I think the pastries were pretty good but they weren't my favorite. We ordered the bacon, egg and jalapeño; the sausage, egg and jalepeno; the egg and veggie; the cinnamon; and the blueberry kolaches. The baked items were indeed fresh but not necessarily hot - they were more lukewarm. There is a lot more filling than there is bread, and this might also be unexpected since it does look like a bakery. The bread is a bit on the sweeter side while I found the egg pastries to be a little dry and needing more flavor. The sweet pastries were very good though. For 5 pastries, we spent about $20, so the price point is pretty good. However, the service was off. When I came in, the staff member acknowledged that she would be with me in a moment and that she was putting more baked items out. Then, at some point, she was finished and simply walked to the register. From my angle, which was right in front of the case, I could not see that she was at the register. Instead of acknowledging that she was there, someone who was waiting behind me asked if I was going to go. I think that there could have been some communication. read more

I was pleasantly surprised to see a kolache shop just down the street from where I was staying in American Fork. The shop is small and there is a little bit of seating to stay, but it's mostly to go spot. They have a wide array of Sweet n Savory flavors. I got one of the Texans. It was jalapeño sausage and cheese. It was super tasty high-quality sausage, a lot of jalapeños to be ready for spicy and maybe a little less cheese then he would've hoped for, but I was more than happy. My only feedback is that the dough was slightly dry. Had a very nice flavor to it, and I know a high altitude baking can be tough and finicky sometimes. I would definitely come back. The dude ringing me up was beyond helpful beyond kind, and excluded. The most positive energy. I would come back 1000 times over just because of him honestly. Maybe I got a little unlucky. Employees like that are rare these days, especially in the service industry. Fair pricing quality baked goods. read more

The Kolache Place - The Texan - Bakeries Near Me - American Fork, Utah

This whole review should just say "My 5 and 8 year olds give this place a 10/10" since that really says it all. They never complain when we go here, even when there is a bit of a line in the early morning rush. Everyone is still nice and calm while addressing the growing line. Some of our favorites are the strawberry Nutella, cinnamon and the Texano. I lived in Texas for awhile and the Texano is true to form and they don't skimp on the sausage! We bought the punch pass they have every new year, and it's totally worth it, since we frequent this place. It's not a place to really go and sit down, so keep that in mind. Considering this place as a stop in and grab treats to go, and you'll be pleasantly surprised. read more

We love this place! The sweet kolaches--especially the maple pecan--are a family favorite. The Texan is amazing and the traditional bacon, egg and cheese always hits the spot. The people are happy and the environment is welcoming and clean. read more

Really yummy. What a great place for something warm, delicious, and different than your everyday breakfast. Make sure to get there early because they sell out fast and don't always make more batches of certain flavors when it gets later in the day! I'll be back to try to monte cristo! The biscuits and gravy was the yummiest! Great service, too. read more

Lots to love about this place. Small, quaint, eclectic and delicious Kolaches. Almost a cult following. Reminiscent of a NY deli where there's a small store and you're in and out. The service is fast as long as the people in front of you are decisive. It's all prepared and they collect your order very quickly. Always service with a smile. Even if there's a big line outside (if you're there after 9 or so on a Saturday morning) it goes pretty quickly. I love both their sweet and savory options. They have quite an array of both. My favorite sweet is the triple berry, so good. Savory is a little harder to pick a favorite. Most I've tried I love. They usually have specialty ones that are there for a limited time. I usually get those if they sound great, and enjoy really enjoy them. read more

Delicious and warm meal every time. I love starting my morning with Hruskas. Sweet and savory are both good. Cute little shop as well.

The Kolaches here are fantastic. I love the savory ones! The Monte Cristo is SO GOOD. It's usually sold out if you don't get there in the morning. Go and get a variety and find your favorite. Not really sure we've found one we don't like yet! read more

Excellent in food, excellent in service! For those of you who have never had a Kolache, it comes in two forms: 1) a completely filled baked wheat bun, usually of some form of savory filling. Think a buttery roll that you bite into and get an amazing tasty surprise in the form of eggs and bacon! My favorite of the savory type is egg jalapeno and bacon (or sausage), although the brisket or sausage and gravy are also very good. They have non-meat varieties as well. 2) an open faced bun similar in shape to a Danish but with a more bun-like dough with a sweet filling in the middle. My favorites are the mixed berry and cream or and of the other fruit flavors. They are both delicious and come in a variety of flavors. They are very filling. You can buy them individually or by the dozen. Although they continue to make them throughout the morning, sometimes certain varieties sell out quickly and you may have to wait. Let's talk about service for a second. One extremely helpful thing they do is to mark the box they come in with the name of the variety you have chosen by the position the variety is in the box. This means you know exactly which one you are going to eat since the savory ones are completely round and have not any distinguishing marks. look at the lid of the box and pick which one if you are getting a variety. a second highly rated service item in my book has been the willingness of the team at a couple of different locations to accept large orders for business meetings. several times i have ordered ahead and they have been ready even for early morning meetings. I appreciate their willing ness to work with me on these. Overall, if you want something different and tasty, find your way to one of their locations! read more

I absolutely loved this place! There's nothing like it around where I live, but I wish there was a location near me. Note that it can get busy and certain flavors can sell out, so try to plan and go early. This is also more of a take-and-go place. There's a few bar stools to sit at, but they were full when I stopped by early that morning. I got a few different kinds, but my favorites were the egg and sausage (savory) and triple berry (sweet). Don't forget to try their sauces/salsa! Both were delicious and I loved dipping my savory kolaches. If I'm ever in the area again, I'll definitely stop by to try more flavors. read more

I have been lamenting the loss of Johnny Kolaches for years. And then the one in Heber went away too and I thought my kolaches career was over. I was running an errand in a town I don't normally visit and happened upon this place. I aww the sign and whipped a U and ran inside. I'm glad it was early morning because they had plenty of options available. The one with the sausage gravy inside- omg. I've never had one like that. I got an assortment of fruity and savory and they were all delicious. You can't go wrong. read more

Absolutely the best breakfast and lunch deal in the nation. To get great lunch for 10$ is basically impossible except for here. I've been here so many times, and so good every time. read more

This place is great!!! They have so many different options and they all look and sound super good. We had two sweet and two savory and they were all amazing. The only downside was when they were gone and we didn't have anymore. Be ready for a line on most days and times. But it's worth it. read more

An easy to miss location on a busy street, next to pawn shops. Walked in and it was a whole different vibe... delicious smells, warm laughter, happy faces. The kolaches were yummy, puffy, terrific. Cheese and sausage and jalapeño kolaches were awesomely delicious. Loved it. Preferred savory ones. So good!!! read more

I have very fond college memories of early Saturday Kolaches runs at the Provo location and went to the American Fork shop with pretty high expectations. Luckily, they didn't disappoint and I'm happy to say the quality here is just as good as I remember. I was a little worried that the selection would be slim because I was showing up around 9 am, but they were fully stocked in all their flavors and the line wasn't too long. I love their efficient process of helping people through the line and we were eating within 10 minutes even though we had about 10 people in front of us. If you're looking for something classic, their sausage and gravy Kolache is definitely going to satisfy you, but I recommend getting two for a solid breakfast. You won't go wrong with any of their egg options, but I recommend the sausage, egg, and jalapeno. It's not too spicy but enough to have great flavor. I've always been impressed by their selection of both sweet and savory options and since the dough is the same, you can't go wrong! read more

Don't worry...the lines moves alone pretty quick. The Kolaches are what you're here for, and they're worth it. Soft, nicely filled, warm, delicious. These are not Texas pigs-in-blanket style Kolaches, but instead are the filled-roll style ones. A really, really nice treat. I like the savory ones with hot sauce. If I was going sweet, I'd want more frosting or something like that. Tips: Look through the windows while you're waiting, and know what you want. Know exactly what you want. That not only moves the line along, but you also get to stay friends with the staff. :) read more

I love kolaches. So yummy. Especially the bacon and egg ones, and the raspberry ones. They have quick and efficient service here as well. This place is a Provo staple for breakfast food! read more

I've never had kolaches until recently but I can't stop thinking about them & literally drooling! Here's your breakfast idea for this weekend! They have several different locations & within one week, I went to two of them. I told you, I can't live without these! The savory ones are great Breakfast "meals" & they save great for breakfast tomorrow as well. The egg & cheese is probably my favorite! But the Mexican omelet one was pretty good too! Sausage & gravy was also clearly a fan favorite. I loved the sweet kolaches as well. Peach was probably my favorite, BlackBerry being a close second read more

A fantastic stop for some great bites. Strongly appreciated that they had multiple vegetarian options in the savory section, as well as all of the sweet. Less than a 10 minute wait on a Saturday morning, and the folks working were all very nice. Pricing was quite reasonable, and it was just delicious. read more

DoorDash easy to order ahead of time and able to get in a timely way. My coworkers rave about the sausage and gravy but I loved the cream cheese options (strawberry, plain, cinnamon, and peach were all awesome). We also tried the bacon egg and cheese as well as the sausage egg and cheese. To quote my boss as he cleaned his plate, "I don't know how they do it!" Doesn't matter how so long as you enjoy the food. I loved that as a to go order that they labeled the box for us to identify the flavors well. read more

I wish I could remember her name so I could shout her out. honestly I would give 5 stars but imma be honest - the savory kolaches are SO peppered. like, feels like chewing on straight up peppercorns. it's enough to knock off a star from my rating, sadly read more

The perfect quick breakfast. The only beef I have with them is that they have significantly raised their prices. Like it used to be closer to $5 bucks for 2 and now it's over $7. We stopped getting the sweet ones. The Mexican omelet is my favorite for this location. read more

Wen to Hruska's Kolaches on a whim for a little breakfast. For those that don't know kolaches are a Czech style pastry made from a puffy yeast dough. It may look like a danish but this pastry isn't flaky so no mess (I should say less mess). Pull in on either side of the building there's plenty of parking. When you walk in you're immediately hit with that fresh baked bread scent so you know you're in for a treat. A friendly staff and a display case full of flavors (both sweet and savory) sits just ahead, don't be afraid to ask questions. There's a couple small tables and a long bar against the window that's a great spot to sit for a minute and enjoy whatever you decide. I took the advice of the staff and got one savory, one sweet, and a coffee. Coffee is Kings Peak Roasters, a great local brand that pairs perfect. Sausage, egg, cheese, and jalapeño was fantastic the bread is super fluffy and the inside is full of flavor. Even though there's jalapeño it's not too spicy. It smelled so good I couldn't resist taking a bite before snapping a pic. Try it with one or all three of their delicious sauces. My favorite was called the potion, its fruity and tangy with a little kick. Go with the "No.2" if you want a little more spice. The raspberry had a little tag in the case indicating it's feature on Food Network's Diners, Drive ins, and Dives so I had to try it. This bread is fluffy like the sausage but a little sweeter with a good helping of raspberry jam in the middle. As Guy Fieri would say it was a road rockin trip to flavor town! A few tips: -Kolaches are around $3.50 for a savory and $2.20 for a sweet. Coffee was $2.50. -other drinks available in bottle (milk, water, juice, soda, and monster energy). -They stop baking at 11am and close at noon or if they sell out before then. -They bake all morning so you ask if you don't see your favorite available. Chances are it's only 20 min wait to the next batch. read more

Probably the best little thing in American Fork, UT. I live in Salt Lake County and I'll make a special trip for their deliciousness. You honestly can't go wrong with any initial choice. I would also recommend both the savory and the sweet options. Personal favorites: Sausage, Egg, Cheese, and Jalapeño(savory) and Strawberry(sweet). The savory options are not only delicious, but I bet they would be the best hangover food. Quick and easy. Describing the sweet: imagine you have a homemade hot dinner roll, cover it in a sweet butter with strawberry jam. Now take that sweet memory and make it better. Best go in the morning, they tend to sell out. read more

Great kolaches! I had the strawberry and maple pecan. You should stop by if you're in provo.

I love supporting local businesses and this one is a favorite! If you're looking for something sweet or savory there is a Kolache for you! As seen on DDD the raspberry is a perfect burst of flavor and my personal favorite! Order ahead to ensure you get all the flavors you want to try. Reasonably priced and worth every penny!

Super tasty and filling. Fantastic food for a road trip or on the go. They run out fast though so arrive early

I've never had a kolach before or even heard of one, but I saw this place on Yelp and noticed how great its reviews were and knew I had to give it a try. I came on a Saturday morning and they had plenty of options in the display case, both savory and sweet. I'm not a fan of cream cheese so I decided to get sausage and gravy one as it had a little label stating it was seen on Food Network :). It was absolutely amazing! The dough was super soft and slightly sweet, and the filling was just the right balance between sausage and gravy. Absolutely nothing to complain about at all. I definitely want to come back to try more of the other options! read more

One of my fave places to visit and I've had a lot of fun introducing a lot of people to their kolaches. And I have yet to find anyone that doesn't like them! Their kolaches are delicious and they have such a variety. Not to mention seasonal specialities. The fruit and cream are sweet but not too sweet. And the savory are like perfect little breakfast buns. Protein and flavor to start your day. A couple things I love about this location - they have their house made hot sauce on the counter for you to use with your kolaches. Service is super friendly and they always seem happy to help and do whatever they can to serve you. Also, if you order ahead you can get mini kolaches. Which are still decent sized but allow people to try more options. We've used them for work meetings and bridal showers and many things in between! read more

I've lived through years of kolache withdrawals since moving away from Provo which was, until very recently, the only Hruska's location. It was like Christmas morning to find out they were coming to American Fork and I haven't been disappointed--in fact, I think they're even less busy than the Provo location which is a major perk. I went in around 9:30 on a Tuesday morning and there was no line and plenty of selection. I've never had one I didn't like. I agree with the recommendation to get (at least) one of each--a savory and a sweet. My personal favorite is a strawberry or peach fruit one (sans cream cheese) and one of the fat, orb-like breakfast ones with some combination of egg and sausage. Keep an eye out, too, for their specialties because they do sell out fast--a cinnamony Mardi Gras king cake or a Texas BBQ brisket, for example. This is my favorite breakfast food of all time and one of the few foods, period, that will get this night owl out of bed and in the car early in the day. read more
