Paul Schat’s Bakery

Stopped in to pick up some of their whole wheat sourdo bread and decided to get try lunch. It was awesome! I had the Dutch dip, it’s a man sized version of a French dip served on a baguette with grilled onions and their au jus was the real deal. My wife had the mammoth mountain blt. It was piled high with bacon and served on sourdo, also an excellent sandwich. We will definitely be back for lunch again soon.

I’ve been here many times and the lunch food is always excellent-I’m a big fan of the tri tip sandwich with bacon, of course. The tri-​tip is perfectly cooked and delicious on a sandwich. I haven’t had a burger from here for a while but they were grass fed cows from Minden Nevada.
If you get here early in the day, and I mean it must be early (Coke in your pjs if you must) You can devour a chocolate croissant that’s to die for. However, these tasty pastries go very fast so make sure you’re early.
I always check out the «day old bread» rack for some wonderful bread at a great price. I’ve never once ate the bread and noticed it being «day old»
The chocolate chip Swedish cookies are my favorite cookie here!

It’s been awhile since I’ve been here to Schat’s Bakery here in Carson City, but I was in the area and wanted a lunch that wasn’t Mexican or Chinese and wasn’t gonna be a long drawn out affair at a full service sit down restaurant. Besides having some of the best delectable pastries and desserts in town, Schat’s also serves deli sandwiches served on their own house baked breads, as well as juicy tasty burgers. Just go to the rear counter to order food and pay. The first cashier is for bakery purchases. Tip: they have yesterday’s bread on sale for ½ off. Just the same as if you bought it and took it home on the next day. I picked up a loaf of sliced Jewish Rye for just $ 2.75. They make some dang good bread here!
I was in the mood for a nice burger, although the make a killer Ruben sandwich here, piled thick and with their own rye bread. I got the standard Schat’s Burger ($ 9.75), includes cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato and a ½ pound patty, all served with fries. I had the choice of a regular sesame seed bun or a jalpaeno cheese bun, which is really a jalapeño cheese croissant split in half. You get a number and grab a seat. The front area is quite frenetic, all with the lines of people getting baked goods and the noise of conversations and ordering. The best seating, I think anyways, is in the rear, much quieter and relaxed and room to spread out if you want. Put your number on your table and the food runner will find you.
My food arrives in short order, no problems with slow food here. My plate is filled with my burger and fries. Wow, those fries are hot right out of the fryer! It’s nice they include a steak knife for me to cut my burger in half, which I do. The croissant is a bit soft, as croissants are, and squishes a bit as I cut. I can see my patty is cooked as requested, medium. There’s a lot of onions included as well as nice melted cheddar cheese. As I take my first bite, I can see this is gonna be a bit messy affair, glad there’s unlimited napkins at my table! The taste and burger experience is all top rate. Although, next time I may go with the regular sesame bun, as this croissant is a bit to soft to hold up to the onslaught of burger juices and finger holding this thing requires. Dang, these are some damn tasty well cooked fries!
I’m quite happy with my burger lunch here and I think a lot of other people love the lunches here as well, so it would be best to get here before 11:30am for lunch, otherwise you may be waiting in a long line. I’ll return again… and maybe pick out some of those tasty looking pastries they have on display. They also sell a small selection of Dutch food products here as well.

On quality of baked goods, this place is and absolute 5! I had a pecan roll that still haunts me… the memory of that warm, nutty, sugar dense, doughy treat that I inhaled with every single bite still lives with me one week later. This quality bakery was so unexpected in Carson City. It blew me away!
They have one of those display cases of baked goods that is so perfect and so packed with so many spectacular looking baked goods that it could be in a photo shoot for a magazine. Come early, because surely this beautiful case and its bakery delights gets demolished by customers quickly… it would have to. You kind of want to rub right up against the glass of the display case and start drooling.
They have breads, cookies, pastries, etc. I grabbed coffee and my roll to go.
There are of these bakeries floating around in the states and the girls behind the counter indicated that the original Paul Schaats is somewhere in California.

Had the Bleu Cheese bacon burger that was on special today. It was an absolutely fine hamburger. Great hamburger bun, naturally. Up another notch, made me forget all about the pastrami.

This place is great. Love belt bakery and awesome breakfast and lunch menu. Fresh coffees, fresh oj, and smoothies. I love the Dutch-​dip and their lunch combos they offer. Always have fresh homemade soups too. The Also have a delicious tiramisu cake to die for. Truffle galore with honey chews to match. The staff could be a little more personable but otherwise it’s an awesome place.

I was amazed at how busy they were. I not a pastry person but had one from here and am converted. I will return here and in SF every time. No other bakery has gotten of opinion!

The product here is great! I’ve been going here for years and buying their outstanding breads and bakery items. The only reason I can’t give them 5 stars is because nothing has prices. But it’s worse than that — it’s like the prices are a secret. Over the years, I’ve asked many times for a price list but all I can get is a range. «They’re between $ 4.50 and $ 8.50». It’s really annoying and detracts from the experience.

Yummy treats here. Love the Mexican wedding cookies or the Swedish cookies. The squaw and shepherded bread are what they are known for. Good for a leisurely brunch with friends. Have good take out also. Pleasant helpful staff.

You know sometimes you go to a place because you hear alot about it and your expectaitons are SO high… that its kind of hard for ANY business to match them.
Well we went here the other day and well, they did. Not cheap by any means, but it was good and we will go back.
We had the Dutch dip, kind of like a french dip. While they were out of french bread, (HUH, why sell the sandwich to me then???), the cook offered me Ciabatta with a smile.
A different take on the french dip for sure… many onions and a mildly spiced meat… VERY VERY good sandwich even if on a Ciabatta.

Yummy yummy. If ur staying at max casino dont buy ur desserts at their restaurant because this is the supplying company and its cheaper and fresh!

If you think it’s like the one in Bishop, it is NOT! Poor customer service, the girls don’t like answering questions. If you ask for something they carry at the Bishop location, some of the staff take offense to this and especially if you ask them for Chileno cheese bread, they shove chili cheese bread at you or tell you to go to Bishop then. I bought a loaf of the banana nut bread, it was good. But after the poor customer service, I was bummed that I had already bought my item as after being treated like a POS, I just wanted to return it and leave. I want to give this place another try as their pastry display looks amazing and so many sweet treats that I want to try :(Well see, I feel like you should give a place another shot, right?!

By far one of my favorite places to eat lunch at in Carson! The burgers are absolutely fantastic. I’ve never had a bad meal here. The french toast breakfast is another one of my favorites. I would definitely recommend trying out this place. It is always busy, so be prepared for a little wait but it’s so worth it.

I stopped in for breakfast today. I ordered the French toast special. It was one piece of French toast cut in half, two eggs and bacon. I ordered a side of potatoes and a cup of coffee. $ 17.15! That’s the most expensive breakfast I have ever had in my entire life. It was good, but I think it doesn’t have to be that expensive. I will probably stick with crackerbox.

Driving through Carson City: «STOP!!! I read about that place and we must eat something!» Hollers my brother in law who is visiting from NJ and has a bucket list of about 287 things he must try while he is here in Tahoe visiting.
The entire family empties out of the car while I wait in the car with the air conditioning on and watch them as they troop back with big bags in tow. Inside, I discover a plethora of things like chocolate croissants and eclairs and chocolate cakes and I don’t know what else because those sneaky tourists shoved half of whatever they bought into their gaping maws before they got back in the car and wouldn’t tell me what they ate even though their lips were encircled with telltale smears of chocolate.
I had the chocolate croissant for breakfast the next day with a hot cup of Irish tea and it was deeeeelishkous.

I love their bakery. Their staff are, one on one, great people.
Want a sandwich? Be ready for an hour wait that get you stuck with over salted food with grease sopping through the bread, and soggy fries.
If you want a sandwich, I’d suggest the dumpster behind a McDonald’s. Faster service, and better food.

I visited Paul’s stand at the Sand’s Thursday night farmers market.
Got a variety of things to try and so far everything I’ve tried has been awesome.
Keep up the great work guys and thanks for being there the night I was in town!

You’ve probably heard of the Schat’s legacy from going to Mammoth or Bishop. Paul scat is Eric’s son who owns the one in Bishop. His bakery is in Carson and that man can bake! I’ve been coming here since it opened and it never anything that was even remotely sub par. Every bread, cookie an sandwich I’ve had has been nothing but excellent. I recommend everyone to come here if they’re on their way through. Sometimes it takes a while to get your food just because it’s so busy because it’s SO good! A true Carson City gem.
P. S. I have celiac disease and there are gluten free options but a small percentage.

Absolutely love this establishment. Whenever I work I stop by here on my way back from delivering.
The other day I wanted breakfast so I decided to stop by here before work and get a breakfast bagel. Well it was the most expensive breakfast bagel I’ve had in my whole life.
Breakfast bagel with egg and cheese $ 5.95 add meat $ 1.00
So I was like ok $ 7 for a sandwich whatever I’m hungry. Then I kinda wanted some veggies in it and she had to charge me another $ 1.00. So my total was $ 8.29 for a breakfast bagel. I was amazed.
I usually just buy their pastries or there baked bread, but every once in a while I’ll get their lunch or breakfast, but now I’ll just stick to getting their pastries and bread. Yikes. Other than that one incident I love coming here when I’m in town.

YUM, YUM, YUM, YUM, YUM, YUM!
I’ve been doing some work in Carson City lately, and on a recent trip I suggested to my coworkers that we pop in to Schat’s Bakery as I have seen them at events in Reno. We are all obsessed now, and planning to return regularly.
The store has a bakery on one side, and a deli on the other. I have not eaten at the deli, so I will only review the bakery. They have the most amazing selection of bakery items — cookies, cakes, pies, turtles and other chocolate covered nuts, breads, etc, etc. It’s nearly impossible to narrow my purchase down to something reasonable. They also have some fun imported baked goods. We took a box of assorted cookies from Schat’s to a meeting and they were definitely a crowd pleaser!
The way they could earn that last star is if they focused a little more on customer service. Both times I’ve been in recently, there are a lot of people working, but it seems very disorganized. No one provides a welcome or a «I’ll be right with you,» and it’s hard to tell if they are busy and will get to us when they can or if we’re supposed to get their attention to get help. It’s a small quibble, and not enough to keep me from coming back, but just a suggestion to take this great bakery to the next level!
