Pretty good! Came by on Sunday morning and even with short line, I only waited 5-10 minutes from order to fulfillment. Grabbed a breakfast kolache and a sweet version. My preference is definitely the sweet version (sweet cheese and blueberry). I'll warn they're small -- grab 2 if you're hungry! Reason I took off a star is that the portions are small and not super-stuffed. I was also surprised even the breakfast version is served room temp? Probably wouldn't travel out of my way again, but if I'm passing by and in the mood, would consider it. read more

Brooklyn Kolache - Chai latte - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Coming for years. Never had an authentic kolache in Texas but I appreciate the exposure. Always friendly, never snarky staff. Diverse baristas. Great place to hang out and work for a while. With both indoor and outdoor areas. Note of caution if you are going to hang out for work/study: The music here can be very.... "Experimental' and "spirited" lol. So bring some good had phones to help you maintain your vibe. read more

I found out about this cute place at a food event and had to have more. We went in the afternoon on a weekend and didn't get top pickins but it was okay we still got some great kolaches and coffee. When walking in its some what small but very cute with a couple tables to sit at. The staff was super nice and very welcoming. I def recommend the pb&j, it was my favorite. Def check this place out. Parking is kind of tough in this neighborhood. read more

I am finally taking time to write a review about this wonderful place. It is definitely one of my husband and I's favorite places to eat. We've been coming here for the last two years and have never been disappointed. All of their Kolaches are so delicious that it is hard to pick which one you'll get. We however have 2 savory favorites : -chorizo, eggs and cheese -sausage, jalapeño and cheese. Aside from the delicious little buns they do really good cappuccinos and coffee drinks. Their drinks are consistently great which is sometime hard to find. To top it off it is also a great place to come relax or work. There back room is so cozy. They have a lot of outlets so you can also bring your computer and get some work done. read more

Summer '17 Obsession: Brooklyn Kolache's LAVENDER LEMONADE. I've been stopping by all summer for this refreshingly floral and delicious drink. I'm not usually a lemonade lover unless its cut with something else (mango, iced tea, etc) but the lavender syrup is so perfect. The gal behind the counter told me last week that it's a seasonal flavor so it probably won't be around much longer and I'm already bummed about it....but I'm excited to see what fall flavors this spot debuts once the weather changes. read more

Mmmmm! Tried the beef chili dog, jalapeño sausage and the blueberry custard - all so good. Great iced coffee and very delicious iced chai. Bonus points for the Golden Girls paintings :) Can't wait to go back! read more

Why are kolaches/klobasneks not a bigger thing in NYC? I'm sorry, but forget the bagel sandwich--this is the perfect breakfast/brunch food. This is especially a must-visit for Texpats who are missing their regular sausage and cheese fix (the sausage is appropriately spicy and lovely). Their ham and cheese is really solid - nice thick slice of country ham - and the rotating array of sweet kolaches is of course always delicious. I would put their kolaches up against any central Texan bakery. They have a really cute little patio, too, for when the weather is nice. Yall should all immediately put this on your weekend list and go get addicted. And then make it a craze so more kolache shops will open up in NYC. ;) read more

Delicious coffee and kolaches! My favorite of the sweet ones is the poppy seed, super unique and tasty.

Delicious kolaches for a snack or light breakfast! Make sure to come early to not miss out on certain flavors - I came pretty late so I didn't get to try the poppyseed kolache. Their sweet cheese kolaches are soooooo good. I only tried the sweet kolaches but I'm sure the savoury ones are just as amazing! read more

As someone who used to live in Texas a few years ago, you have no idea how happy this place makes me. The first time I had a kolache was when I moved to San Antonio in 2016. I had never seen one before and didn't even know what they were, but as soon as I tried it for the first time, I was hooked. Finding a place that sells kolaches in Brooklyn? Now that's just next level. The dough is sweet, but not overpowering. The meat on the inside is perfect. My first time coming here, I bought half of a dozen and finished it that day. I'm telling you, come here. Come. read more

Absolutely obsessed with this place, went in today and the staff was super friendly and nice, the atmosphere was really what I needed for a cozy lazy day. I ordered one Kielbasa Jalapeño Cheese Kolache to go and almost turned around for another it was so good. Will definitely be back! read more

Czech it Out. I first tried this place back when it opened, and was underwhelmed to be honest. You see, I grew up eating Poppy Seed Kolaches. Not the Texan iteration, mind you, but the Czech ones, which to my very foggy recollection, boasted much more filling and less sweet, yeasted dough. The dough to filling ratio here just seemed kind of off on that long ago visit and I never went back. Until recently: This time around, we tried several of the savory fillings, including Spinach-Feta, Sausage, and Egg,Cheese & Turkey, and while I only tasted the latter, everyone was really happy with their picks. These things aren't lookers, but what they lack in superficial appeal, they make up for in homey goodness. For old times sake, I also got a Poppy Seed Kolache and still felt like the dough to filling ratio was off. It was just too bready for me. I think savory is where it's at here. Fwiw, the coffee here is great. We were told the beans are sourced from a local BK roaster if that kind of stuff matters to you. Thank you Gene L. for reminding me of this spot. I see another savory Kolache followed by dessert at nearby Dough in my future. read more

Just to update- I come here maybe once every two months or so. Still wonderful. Pronunciation: coal-a-chee Try a fruit with cheese. They are SO good and perfect for your sweet tooth. Try the sausage and cheese. Or just the sausage. Yeah, you'll legit be drooling. Have them warm it up and it's EVEN BETTER. (How is that possible?? I don't know, man!) -They've got tea, coffee, water, and kids juice boxes so your drink choices are plentiful. -Backyard is available during good weather days. Come here and enjoy the Texas, my friends. read more

A cute little spot! My friend lived around the corner and she introduced me to this place and I'm forever thankful. Simple concept, simple menu. Great coffee, lemonade and tea. The staff is really really nice! And the pastry is fantastic! They have it in a million different flavor both sweet and savory! Ranging from cheese, to blueberry cheese, to swiss and ham, to spinach and feta, to mushrooms and goat cheese! Light and fluffy and if you get a savory one they offer you hot sauce and mustard! There is a sitting area in the back which is pretty big and a lot of people come to work here with their computers but the real jewel of this place is the outside sitting area! So pretty, intimate and refreshing. Come here during September to get some real fresh air and enjoy this secret garden of Brooklyn Would come back every week and would definitely recommend read more

Soooooo good! Have only tried the lemon curd kolache bc all the rest are sold out by the afternoon. It's delicious! Get it heated up with a side of tea and it's that "sticks to your insides" food that's so needed in cold January. Need to try their hot chocolate which is made with heavy cream and ganache! I'm staying nearby for a bit and can definitely see myself traveling back just for this when I leave the area. read more

Finally a great spot to get true Czech Kolache outside of Texas. This is a great coffee shop specializing in good coffee and wonderful Kolaches. The staff is really friendly and the owner being from Austin knows what a Kolache should taste like. We had one of the best decaf espresso's ever and ordered one of their chocolate peanut butter, sausage & cheese, spinach & feta, and bacon, egg and cheese Kolache. They were amazing. The pastry was light and flaky and the fillings had great flavor. Awsome job guys! read more

These little things are amazing. So soft. So tasty. So cheap. Staff is super friendly too.

The first time i went there the food was pretty good. They have a different assortment of savory pastries and sweet pastries. This is where you go to for breakfast or a quick snack. I enjoyed the beef sausage kolache. I also tried the orange roll and cinnamon roll they were good as well, but i could live without it. I would stick with the kolache . I tried the drink with sprite w cherry grenadine and lime for the price, i dont think it was worth buying. read more

Probably one of the most delicious pastries I've ever had in my life. I'm so mad I didn't go in person and had them delivered because I can't even imagine how it tastes when it's fresh and warm. Definitely recommend and I will be returning! read more

OMG!! I had never heard of Lola he before finding this little place, and I was awestruck. The cafe has both sweet and savory varieties--my favorite was strawberry/rhubarb. The pastry itself is to die for. Have it with the excellent cappuccino. read more

This place is alright. It never quite hits the spot for me when I'm looking for my classic kolache flavor. However, I do appreciate the options they have. I like how they stick to the tried and true kolache flavors like BEC and sweet cheese and berries. I live walking distance from this place and I thought I'd be a regular, but it's far too expensive. $4 for one kolache is insane. I can handle that on the rare occasion, but paying $8 for two kolaches is something my Texan spirit will never be alright with. I also don't feel that the price allows many people from the neighborhood to become patrons, especially when a more affordable bodega is across the street as a breakfast option. I do recommend stopping by this place during their end of the day BOGO. It definitely drops the price down to a more manageable level. read more

Went for breakfast to get a couple kolaches. Was my first time here and had no idea what kolaches were but wanted to try out a neighborhood shop. Butchered the pronunciation (it's Ko-la-chee in case you were wondering). Also was initially confused by the menu. Girl at the counter was a bit rude and passive aggressive, and I felt judged for not knowing how to order or pronounce this food that was new to me. apparently it originated in Czech and was made popular in Texas. Anyway wasn't too impressed by the things - spinach and cheese was my favorite, still warm fresh out the oven. The other ones- ham and cheddar, sausage and cheddar, blueberry sweet cheese- just tasted like normal pastries to me. read more

Amazing!! Great food, great staff, cute environment. Definitely a favorite local spot, but also a must visit for those unfamiliar with kolaches! read more

I'm so sorry to be writing this--I loved loved loved Brooklyn Kolache and evangelized it to all my friends, encouraging them to try the fresh baked, incredible kolaches. I looked forward every year to the pecan ones that come in December. I still am obsessed with the Ube milk--however, something's changed with the kolaches, and not for the better. On our last visit, got 2 pecan and 2 blueberry kolaches and was shocked by how dry they were. It crossed my mind they might be old, but I couldn't believe that, based on prior experiences. However, the blueberry kolache was hot in some places and cold in others, which was dissapointing. It also tasted super dried out and the blueberry jam seemed drier and less vibrant than usual. The pecan one, on the other hand, shocked me. The dough was warm-ish, in places, while the pecans on top were cold. I don't know if it was the expansion that's causing this or just COVID stuff, but it was dissapointing to review these types of pastries right at opening. Even the time before this dissapointing one, I noticed the kolaches were pretty messy. I never had streaks of chocolate or other flavors bleeding into the dough of other ones, and that could be a huge turnoff for people who don't like a particular flavor that rubbed off on another kolache. The coffee is still excellent, as is the Ube milk, but probably not excellent enough for a treck from Queens. Edit: The incredibly kind owner reached out and assured me that the quality issues were taken care of--and this review should be inclusive of all the amazing meals + coffee I've had, so updating the stars to reflect my previous review too. read more

Just got a regular coffee, but thoroughly impressed that they offer the option of macadamia milk! So good.

Never underestimate the power of a managerial response! I'd made it clear that I was on the fence about returning, but a reply on Yelp (before I went all Elite, so big respect there) brought me back for a second try, albeit some time later. This time I came by around 9 AM, and true to their word, the display case had an impressive array. Today I tried their bacon egg and cheese ($3.75) and apple ($3.00). I think that coming earlier in the day made all the difference. The bacon egg and cheese was delicious - the eggs and dough were soft, the bacon was crispy, and the cheese was melty goodness. My only gripe is that one bite contained an unfortunate mouthful of a spice or seasoning I couldn't quite name. Still, because it seemed to be all in a clump, that particular bite was overwhelmed. I suppose it was a freak mixing accident, but I would be remiss not to mention it. Now the apple pastry was phenomenal, so much so that I think the prices should have been swapped in respect to its quality. The emphasis is on the dough, but the filling was absolutely delicious. It's still a bit pricey for me, but now I see why. Four stars now. read more

KOLACHE KOLACHE KOLACHE. I grew up eating these. I have a lot of family in Texas and have been flying back and forth since I was little. Smuggling BBQ on the plane isn't something that's really done so instead I was always the person that had half their suitcase stuffed with kolaches. The kolaches here deliver. I had the sausage, jalapeno, and cheese along with the poppyseed. The poppyseed was good but I'm not a big fan of the sweet kolaches compared to the savory ones. The sausage, jalapeno, and cheese delivered. It was wonderful and spicy (along with the help of their hot sauce and mustard). It was dough was fluffy, the ingredients complimented each other, and it was just delicious. I was actually surprised by how good it was. If you haven't had a kolache, BKC is a good place to start (ahem native New Yorkers). It takes you back the heart of Texas. I will definitely be back smuggling a purseful back to Manhattan. read more

What are kolaches? Honestly, I think they're a Czech doughnut with Texas influence but you can argue otherwise as I eat your kolache. Brooklyn Kolache Co is the only place I know that sells them and finally had the chance to try them. From the outside the space looks unassuming but from the inside, its actually quite nice and cozy! There are multiple seating areas and even outdoor seating for warmer weather working. There were a lot of people working and on weekends they don't turn on the wifi until 2:00PM which is an okay policy for me. You can choose from savory and sweet kolaches and I ordered one of each-the mushroom and goat cheese plus the poppyseed. Both really delicious! The texture of the dough has a nice chewiness to it. I did prefer the poppyseed one but it's because of my sweet tooth. At about $3-$4 for a kolache, they won't break the bank and much like doughnuts, they run out of the kolaches towards closing time so if you want to get one, the earlier the better. Haven't tried all the kolaches but will be back for the other flavors. Happy eating and remember: Don't deny, satisfy! read more

I have been looking for kolaches in New York for three years. Finally, Brooklyn Kolache Co. at the end of the rainbow. At first, I was pretty excited that this place even existed. But after actually stopping in and trying a Cherry & Sweet Cheese and a Chorizo & Egg kolache, I was speechless. These are the best kolaches I have ever had. In my life. And I'm pretty sure I ate kolaches every week at Sunday School growing up. Then I returned and got a breakfast taco and a PB&J kolache. I don't know what else to say. I am unable to convey with words the excellence of Brooklyn Kolache Co. The coffee was great, and you never know what to expect when it comes to coffee at bakeries. The people who work here are just...very pleasant. They don't stifle you with stupid enthusiasm. Just a smile and a friendly attitude. I'm glad this place is here. Everyone should check it out. Order anything. I can't imagine you'll be disappointed. read more

Surprisingly I haven't had a kolache yet and I've been to Prague, I chatted with the barista (who was super sweet and helpful by the way, wish I got her name so I could give her a shoutout on yelp) who informed me that kolaches were invented by czech americans, or specifically czech texans. I got a texas beef kolache and blueberry sweet cheese. I could see why kolaches are such a hit after my first bite. The bread was so soft it just blends in your mouth and it wasn't because it was buttery, it's because the dough's fluffy. The main star of the pastry was actually the carb not the fillings surprisingly. Savory kolaches are served with complimentary mustard and hot sauce, there's also free water in the back for you to enjoy your pastries. This place is quite the hidden gem in Clinton Hill, the interior layout reminds me so much of the Bun Shop in Baltimore, similar concept in food/cafe as well. Don't forget to check in for your free high five from the barista! read more

I just moved in the neighborhood and had to do a couple errands in the area. It was rainy and all I wanted was to get somewhere inside, dry out a bit and have a good coffee. I stumbled upon this lovely little place (the great reviews on yelp didn't hurt) and I was surprised to discover these delicious kolaches! I just came back from Austria and was craving for poppy seeds (something you commonly find in Austrian, German, Hungarian, Russian baked goods and pastries), I just couldn't resist when I saw their poppy seeds kolaches!! They have so many different options, I will have come back to taste them as well. Definitely worth trying, the cappuccino was great too, I think I'll come back regularly, I also want to try their cold brew. (Walk afterwards though....gotta burn those fluffy pastries at some point!) read more

If you are a Texan, this is the spot for you! I was at work one day feeling homesick and in need of some Texas comfort food. All I wanted was kolaches, but they're impossible to find up here. I came across this place after a quick google search and decided to make the trek from harlem. I was NOT disappointed. I spent my day getting work done, and I easily ordered 3 kolaches in that time. I even took some back to my sister, and they were still a little warm by the time I got home. The ingredients and care that they put into making their kolaches makes a hugeeee difference. Now, I try heading out there once a month for my kolache fix. I'm so happy I found this place, and it's SOOOOO worth the commute! Thanks for being a piece of Texas in NYC! read more

Love this place and love the staff! Delicious variety of kolaches, both sweet and savory! I think our favorite hands-down was the blueberry sweet cheese, super delicious and it's like sex in your mouth! Seriously, no joke!!? I enjoyed the peanut butter and jam as well! The lemon curd is delicious! This morning I had the sausage jalapeño & cheese-pretty good! Yum yum! Coffee is good as well! The staff is absolutely fantastic and super helpful and very very lovely! I would recommend this place hands-down! If you're driving it's hard to find parking around there but otherwise this place totally rocks!!!! read more

Sorry guys, I really wanted to love this place, but unfortunately it didn't work out. I stopped there the other day on the way to school and got a sweet cheese and a sausage jalapeño and cheese kolache. Unfortunately, the sausage jalapeño and cheese did not contain any visible traces of said ingredients. I could maybe taste a hint of jalapeño aroma accompanied by what may have been a slight essence of cheesyness, but there really wasn't any sausage at all. So sad. $4 for a plain bread roll is a bit steep for me. Two stars because the sweet cheese kolache was pretty good, as were the mustard and hot sauces for my plain bread. read more

Let me start with a tip: the kolaches are buy one get one free an hour before closing everyday except Saturday. On Saturday, it's buy one get one free TWO hours before closing! Woohoo! I tried a kolache for my first time yesterday. They have both savory and sweet options. I got the mushroom and goat cheese and grabbed a sweet one for my friend since it was BOGO free. I took one bite and was surprised at how soft it was! The mushroom and goat cheese pairing is devine and they put enough it so that you can get some in every bite. I didn't eat it right away so it got cold. I was going to wait til I got home to warm it up because I'm sure it's even better warm, but I couldn't wait and devoured the whole thing. read more
