Bakeshop

When we came in there was a lady mopping the floor and she seemed so annoyed with us. I pulled out a chair and stepped away for a second and she slammed it back in to keep mopping. The cashier was nice though! We got a piece of carrot cake and it was mediocre – kinda dry. We were really excited to try this place because I’ve seen it on multiple lists and it was recommended by our Airbnb host, but it didn’t live up to the hype in our opinion so we didn’t go back to try anything else.

Der Bakeshop bietet alles was das Herz begehrt. Von Süßen über Herzafte Speisen bis hin zum super Kaffee gibt es alles im Bakeshop.
Einziger Wermutstropfen, für Prager Verhältnisse ist der Bakeshop recht teuer, aber das nimmt man aufgrund des guten Geschmacks durchaus hin.

Nice bakery and coffee shop! They have some very interesting homemade pastries that are a must try. The poppy seed cookies are delicious. A great place to grab breakfast :)

Bakeshop was a wonderful find in the most touristy district of Prague.
I’m going to be honest, coffee in District 1 of Prague is awful. A lot of it is instant, mixed with too much sugar, or is too weak to be called anything but colored water. Just sad.
Bakeshop offered good coffee, which by my 3^rd day in Prague with family was absolutely vital, and delicious pastries. Albeit, the pastries are very much what you’d find in a coffee shop in the US (think croissants, macaroons, cakes, etc) and the local Czech flavor isn’t infused into their pastry offerings, but my craving was still satisfied.
Best of all, I was able to communicate in English without resorting to my broken Russian.

Popped by here for tea time, and boy was I spoiled for choice. I got a macaroon, macarons, a slice of carrot cake, and my friend got a few cold cuts to nom down. Washed it all down with a hot chocolate.
The range of cakes, pastries, and sweets here are mind-​boggling. I am giving it 3 stars because my hot chocolate was the powdered sort and my carrot cake was moist but didn’t have enough cream cheese in the frosting! Given one can find legit hot chocolate on the streets here, they need to up their game.
I love the variety here and the seats, which have a heater behind them (the bench-​style ones).
Nom nom!

I can only speak about the pastries. As a Texan visiting Prague, I was a little disappointed that the pastries I saw at Bakeshop offered no greater variety than I would find at an American grocery store. In Texas, we have these fabulous Czech bakeries that offer dozens of varieties of sweet and savory kolaches, and I had expected that Bakeshop would have those as well. Instead, their pastry area was not that impressive. This being said, everything I ordered were excellent. I ordered a few different varieties of croissant, muffins, cookies and a huge meringue (seriously, the largest meringue i have ever seen in my life. larger than my head.),
The place was very crowded, so is obviously very popular with tourists and locals. They had many quiche options, and other hot food. It was a little overwhelming to figure out which line was for take away and which was for dine-​in, but the behind-​the-​counter staff was very helpful! The woman who waited on me even gave me a slice of pound cake gratis (I had joked that I was trying out one of everything, and she said she was guaranteeing that this was true!). She was delightful!
Overall, this place is not going to blow your skirt up, but is is a good, solid breakfast option.

Great selection of goods. Coffee was probably the best part about it. The croissant was dense, which was actually nice but not a traditional flaky construction. I ordered a cookie and brownie as well, both were kind of stale. A lot of other salad options as well, but didn’t get into those. Friendly service and one of those places that catch rushes so time your arrival accordingly.

Nice, simple bakery serving sweet and savory foods, along with coffee and bottled drinks. I got the yoghurt cinnamon muffin – tasty but didn’t taste any different than a coffee café muffin from anywhere else. Still worth the 50 Kr.

Un coffee shop/​patisserie qui ouvre tôt et qui ferme tard c’est toujours un plus pour moi !
Les pâtisseries exposées donnent vraiment envie, il y a même un petit coin traiteur.
Quelques places sont disponibles pour manger sur place.
J’ai pris des sablés linzer et ils étaient délicieux (et pas trop sucrés), même 3 jours plus tard.
C’est très paisible comme endroit, surtout en hiver !

Recommended by the lonely planet guide. We had a nice meal, I had a chili con carne and her a quiche with goat cheese and tomatoes. We ate well.

A strange exoerience. It’s is always busy and you need to be a contortionist to sit at their window seats as you have to crawl under a metal bar that doubles as the table.
Rucksacks should be outlawed inside as the wearer is a danger to others carrying hot coffee. My apple cake was doughy but ok and coffee was OK but got knocked by some rucksack carrying lunatic with zero consideration for others.
If you are in the area it’s worth a visit and decide for yourself.

This bakery is definitely on the tourist’s list, but as far as the best bakeries in town? I found much better, which I must admit surprised me.
I’m all about the small, independent, less known establishments, but in this case unfortunately I wasn’t a huge fan of Bakeshop.
This bakery is high priced. That alone kept me from returning. The employees were also unfriendly and rushed me through the line (even when there wasn’t a line behind me) and hurried me through. They did speak some English, but I felt as though I was an inconvenience.
The bakery items and soup I had was delicious. My husband also enjoyed the coffee. The Bakeshop just wasn’t a comfortable, cozy place that I wanted to return to. Tasty, but there’s better in the area.

3 ½ stars. Rounded up for the quality.
Heard about the good reviews here, so I decided to take it upon myself to try out Bakeshop on my last day in Prague!
Came in for brunch, and ordered the pumpkin-​feta quiche (which came with salad) as well as a walnut-​Calvados tart. Total came out to 320 czk (about 12 €, or $ 13 USD), which I would say is a tad overpriced.
But the quiche was pretty good. The crust was thick and hearty, and the pumpkin nice and tender. My complaint would be that it could’ve been heated a bit longer; there were parts in the quiche that weren’t heated through, so it made for a *mildly* funky experience. Feta cheese tasted extremely subtle, not like the strong, tangy stuff that I’m accustomed to. Then again, there was a ton of basil on the quiche, which overwhelmed the taste of the pumpkin and feta.
The walnut-​Calvados tart was a-​okay: just tasted like walnut purée, not very sweet. Didn’t taste the Calvados at all. Like the quiche, the crust was delicious, though.
Overall, a pleasant establishment not too far from Old Town Square, albeit overpriced. It’s worth a try if you’re into getting a nice brunch or something small to go; the bread and pastries aren’t too expensive.

Der Besuch lohnt sich. Sehr nettes Personal, lecker Essen und ein schönes Ambiente.
Wir hatten bagel mit lachscreme und einem Getränk für knapp 100 Kronen. TIPP
Das Omelett war richtig super, aber mit drei Eiern für 250 Kronen zu teuer.

Didn’t live up to all the great reviews. They were not that busy when I went but still disorganized. My pumpkin and feta quiche had a lot of potential but wasn’t quite warm enough and the service was too intimidating for me to go back and ask. Also, the iced tea was sour. Pass.

This is an awesome bakery located in old town Prague. We were lucky enough to be staying around the block. The first time we came here was for breakfast. My friend and I both ordered the quiche. I got the mixed veggie and my friend got the pumpkin feta. Each quiche comes with a small side salad. The flavors were fresh and the crust was so buttery and delicious. I also ordered an americano and I have to say it was the best I have ever had. (I’m very picky about my coffee.)
Later that afternoon we stopped in again to grab some dessert for later. I got a chocolate chip walnut cookie and a few macarons. I’m docking one star because the cookie wasn’t my favorite. It was a bit on the dry side.
The following morning I stopped in again to grab some croissants before we left town. I got a mini chocolate and mini apple. These were the best croissants! I’ve never had one filled with apple before… Pure heaven.
The service was good but don’t be offended if the staff seem annoyed with you. I noticed this trend throughout Prague. I’m sure dealing with a million tourists, some of whom expect everyone to speak English is quite irritating. My advice would be to learn a few phrase words and come here to fuel your day for exploring the city.

Wir haben zwei verschiedene Erfahrungen mit dem Bakeshop gemacht. Wir waren zuerst in dem kleinen Ableger «Bakeshop — little bakery» in der Nähe des Kafkamuseums. Hier war es einfach super. Sehr netter Verkäufer, sehr aufmerksam und eine kleine aber feine Auswahl an Backwaren. Aufgrund unserer positiven Erfahrungen haben wir tags darauf den großen Bakeshop aufgesucht. Die Produkte sind qualitativ top, aber der Shop will eher trendy und schnell sein. Dementsprechend fühlten wir uns hier eher abgestempelt und durchgereicht. Wer es eilig hat, der sollte in den großen Bakeshop gehen und wer es gemütlich und persönlich mag, der sollte in den kleinen Ableger gehen.

Great place not too far from Old Town Square. They have a variety of baked goods, quiches and desserts. And the coffee was great. Prices are reasonable (compared to London) — a cappuccino and a croissant came to a little over $ 4! They have a hot breakfast special with eggs of choice, bread, butter for 65 crowns ($ 2.70).
A great place to power up before a day of touring! Or a perfect place to sit and have an afternoon espresso.

I found this on Unilocal during a trip to Eastern Europe. I really started to get sick of bread, meat, potatoes, goulash, etc.
I really wanted some fresh food. The first time I came by I had a quiche and juice. Both were superb. The second time, I brought my friends here and we shared a salad, another quiche, some baked goods, and coffee. Everything was amazing! I became friends w/​the owner– Carolyn. She’s SUCH a gem. Super sweet and passionate about healthy and delicious food. I was weary from travelling and Bakeshop was such a unique, welcome find in an area of Prague that’s quite touristy. It’s funny, my friends asked about parties or European guys, but’s the little things like finding a connection and comfort in a café that I cherish. When I think about my trip to Eastern Europe, Bakeshop and Carolyn are such a fond memory.
Carolyn– thank you for sharing your stories with me. I hope you find some kale someday, you Australian sweetheart!

Great coffee and delicious quiche. The pumpkin and feta quiche was one of the best things I ate on my Europe trip!

Great place with a variety of baked sweet goods, cold salads buffet and hot sandwiches. Price is not cheap but as you would expect of a tourist place.
The cold salad buffet goes by weight. The couscous salad and grilled asparagus were tasty. Asparagus was rather woody though (should have been snapped off before cooking). Got free flow of bread to go with the salad. Choice offered was a delicious walnut sourdough bread that was so good on its own.
Also got the asparagus soup (their daily choice) and it was way too salty. Finished it with an extreme thirst. But the accompany garlic bread was crunchy and delicious.
The latte was good, and we also tried their brownie, infused with bits of berries. The brownies were crusty on the top, chewy fudgy on the inside.

This place gets waves of crowds and can become quite a mess. I think it’s because tour groups take breaks here.
They make really good coffee and have loads of baked goods to choose from. We opted for a quick option amd grabbed a premade sandwich from the fridge. I liked the sloppy Joe (spicy Cole slaw and turkey).
We got a chocolate chip cookie for dessert. Yum! It was cinnamon and walnuts with nice chocolate chunks.
Food here is good and quality is excellent. It kind of reminds me of home (cali).

Wir waren zum Frühstück da, auf der Suche nach einem Café welches um 07:00 Uhr geöffnet hat, erster Pluspunkt. Die Auswah ist super, Qualität sehr gut und die Atmosphäre stimmt auch. Preislich etwas höher angesiedelt. Aber auf keinen Fall überteuert

I want this place close to my house. There, I said it.
Everything I’ve tried in Prague is just too good, how is this even possible? Maybe just luck.
We came here twice — once for an evening guilty pleasure–
We took a cake that’s called «death by chocolate» — and was very chocolate-​y, very concentrated but not too sweet.
And how can I skip? A macaron, one of the best ones in Prague, a bit pricy though (35 czk for a small one)
And some natural lemonade (bottled) made of raspberry and pomegranate– yum.
The second time was a bit less fun — one late morning, filled up with people storming on the pastries and craving for place to sit, took an onion bagel — it was very yummy but a bit dry, guess I should’ve asked them to hear it up just a little before I left.
I’d give it four and a half if I could, but the prices were a bit irrational for some of the things and the bagel thingy.
Looks like there’s a lot to explore in there– the options are endless, from buying break, to just grab a cake or a little coffee & pastry or a full on meal.
Overall, one of the best bakeries I’ve stumbled upon. Very nice staff despite the long morning line and even nicer when it’s less crowded– Give it a try.

This bakery has high quality goods! I wouldn’t call them a bargain, but for the quality it’s worth it. We went two times in our trip to Prague and had great things both times. Although, one weird thing is that sometimes the bristles from the pastry brush come off into the food. We found two very stiff and wiry hairs in our food there and asked about it. They didn’t seem like human hairs and the staff explained it’s from the pastry brush and is NOT a human hair, but I’ve never experienced that at any other bakery.
The quiches were amazing as was the almond croissant. But everything there is solidly good. I also got some of the roasted eggplant and chickpea salad to go for a train ride later and it was quite delicious.

Die Brezen sind sehr lecker, aber auch z.B. die Kornspitz, außerdem gibts ein tolles Vollkornbaguette.
Aus der süßen Ecke kann ich die Rumkugeln empfehlen. Preislich gehobener

On avait notre appartement à une centaine de mètres de cette pâtisserie /​salon de thé /​saladerie, enfin appelez ça comme vous le voulez. Cet endroit propose un tas de gourmandises vraiment merveilleuses.
On cherchait un endroit pour prendre notre petit déjeuner et on n’a pas été déçu! Les gâteaux proposés sont tout simplement divins! Le premier matin, j’ai opté pour une spécialité de la maison: le gâteau aux prunes. La pâte sablée était parfaite, les prunes fondantes à souhait et le crumble du dessus généreux mais pas étouffant.
Le second matin, place au croissant fourré aux pommes. Rein à dire, les pommes cuites et légèrement caramélisées dans un chausson en forme de croissant, le tout sublimé d’une petite ligne de glaçage! Miam!
Et bien sûr, le jus d’orange est pressé à la main devant vous!
Le midi ils proposent aussi des salades et des sandwich «maison». Je n’ai pas regardé les prix, mais je pense que ce n’est pas donné! La clientèle est assez distingué et il né me surprendrait pas que les vendeuses des proches boutiques de luxe comme Prada, Guerlain et Rolex viennent se restaurer ici à l’heure du déjeuner.

Für Prager Verhältnisse teuer, aber schön und mit köstlichen Verlockungen.
Wer das typische Prag sucht, dem empfiehlt sich der Bakeshop nur bedingt. Denkbar wäre er für mich in jedem anderen Land auch.
Das Eckgeschäft hat lange Vitrinen an denen die ausgesprochen appetitliche Ware feilgeboten wird.
Von Brot über Kuchen, Gebäck bis hin zu pikanten Speisen ist für jeden etwas dabei. Mir hatten es vor allem die Riesenbaisers in drei verschiedenen Geschmacksrichtungen angetan. Lecker! Frühlingsrollen, die ich als kleinen Snack orderte, schmeckten normal, jedoch nicht außergewöhnlich.
Das Personal war freundlich.
Man sitzt an den langen Fensterfronten oder bei schönem Wetter draußen. Alles sehr nett eingerichtet.
Wie gesagt: die Preise sind saftig. Für eine kleine Verschnaufpause ist es gut.
Wichtig erscheint mir in diesem Zusammenhang der Hinweis: das ist nicht das wahre Prag! Schön, dass es diesen Fortschritt gibt und natürlich gönnt man sich als Besucher so einiges, aber ein Tipp: im Gegenzug einmal einen Abstecher in Vororte machen, in denen sich das alltäglich Leben abspielt. Der Kontrast könnte größer nicht sein und man kann diese Leckereien hier als den Luxus genießen, der sie sind!
Empfehlenswert. Würde ich wieder aufsuchen!

Super leckere und umfangreiche Kuchenauswahl. Kaffee könnte besser sein. Preise für Prager Verhältnisse ziemlich hoch, aber gerechtfertigt.

Je savais avant même de m’y rendre que la République Tchèque n’était pas un pays à la gastronomie très recherchée ! A l’image de sa cuisine traditionnelle ou de la street food que l’on trouve dans les superbes rues de Prague, la pâtisserie né fait pas dans la finesse ! Influencée très fortement par les pâtisseries germaniques (Sacher Tort, Strudel) et anglo-​saxonnes (cheesecakes, cupcakes), on trouve néanmoins à Prague quelques adresses qui s’inspirent de notre beau pays. Au cours de mon périple praguois, j’ai notamment découvert Bakeshop, qui se revendique comme l’unique boulangerie artisanale de la capitale tchèque, en plus d’être également un salon de thé, un traiteur et aussi une pâtisserie.

Cette enseigne, véritable îlot de gourmandises dans une Prague culinairement rustique, est située dans la vieille ville, à deux pas du quartier juif et du Pont Charles. Ouverte au printemps 1998, elle offre un cadre très agréable — pour prendre votre petit déjeuner, votre déjeuner ou pour faire une petite pause goûter avec un long présentoir façon buffet, un comptoir qui borde les baies vitrées et une très agréable petite terrasse ! Commençons par l’activité boulangerie Comme indiqué précédemment, Bakeshop serait la seule véritable boulangerie de la ville. Elle propose notamment le pain au levain praguois élaboré à partir de leur propre levure baptisée Bertha, qui apporte les saveurs si caractéristiques du levain. Vous y trouverez une belle offre de pains avec des baguettes, des pains aux noix, aux olives, aux raisins mais aussi un joli choix de baggles (entre 1,50EUR et 3EUR).

Vous pourrez également retrouver toute une gamme de viennoiseries classiques mais aussi assez originales avec des croissants natures, des pains au chocolat mais aussi des croissants aux pommes et au brie, aux pommes et au Calvados, aux amandes ou encore au fromage et au jambon (entre 1,50EUR et 3EUR). Egalement des cookies, des muffins, des cupcakes mais aussi des macarons (les seuls de la capitale avec ceux que vous trouverez deux fois plus chers dans la dizaine de Paul installés à Prague). Bakeshop propose aussi une activité de traiteur avec ce que certains semblent considérer comme les meilleures salades (une trentaine), des soupes (une quinzaine), une offre de sandwichs frais aux influences italiennes et françaises, mais aussi des quiches. Il faut savoir que toutes les préparations proposées par cette adresse sont faites maison à partir de produits frais et de saison.

Au rayon pâtisserie, la spécialité de la maison est le Cheesecake (chocolat ou fruits frais). On y trouve aussi de gros gâteaux à l’allemande que vous pouvez acheter entier ou à la part, mais aussi un assortiment de tartes.
Photo link:
J’ai goûté une part de tarte au chocolat blanc et à la framboise (environ 4,50EUR). Assez sympa avec une très bonne pâte sablée et une association de saveurs qui, si elle n’a rien de très innovant, a le mérite d’être plutôt agréable. J’aurai tout de même aimé un équilibre plus cohérent avec plus de framboises fraiches, trop peu présentes à mon goût (dans le fond de tarte). La crème au chocolat blanc assez compacte en devient vite lourde !
Photo link:
J’ai également goûté une part de Devil’s Chocolate Cake, un gâteau à base de génoise et de crème au chocolat (environ 4EUR la part sur place). Je né suis pas fan ! J’y ai trouvé des saveurs de chocolat plutôt chimiques, avec un vrai manqué de finesse et de légèreté Bof !!! Mon avis: en arpentant les rues de Prague, vous vous rendrez vite compte que les pâtisseries (appétissantes et de qualité) se font très rares ! Même si en France, on considérerait Bakeshop comme un pâtissier moyen, on est finalement heureux, après seulement 3 jours en dehors de nos frontières, de pouvoir faire une pause gourmande pour déguster les créations de la Maison. Les prix né sont pas donnés au regard des tarifs pratiqués de manière générale dans la ville mais quitte à tester la pâtisserie tchèque autant que cela soit avec des produits d’une qualité relativement correcte. Surfant sur l’excellente image culinaire de la France, Bakeshop propose aussi pas mal de produits français comme les thés Mariage Frères, du sucre de canne La Perruche ou encore des confitures Bonne Maman.

Superschöner Laden, in vergleichsweise ruhiger Lage. Man kann von Innen aus durch die Fensterscheiben oder direkt draußen auf Bänken das Treiben von josefov beobachten. Die Preise sind sehr hoch für Prag. Dafür ist es aber 100% keine Touristenabzocke, sondern einfach nur lecker. Ich hab mir für 5EUR das Beste Stück Karottenkuchen meines Lebens gekauft, achtet auf das Frosting, einfach unereichbar!!!
