    Incredible baked goods! The prices were impressive. If you're passing by you have to stop here and get something. It has a homey feel and lots of seating.

    Delicious baked goods, a specialty of the German culture. Last time I stopped in, I picked up a delicious Bear Claw with a cup of coffee. We've visited before as a family for lunch and had a great time. Sandwiches, pastries and drinks are ordered at the counter. Plenty of tables are available inside and on the patio. Many of the signs are bilingual English/German (for example "Knives/Messer"), something you don't see everyday. Free parking in the lot and on the street.

    Visiting for Valentine's weekend and cane across this Beautiful German bakery very reasonably priced. Several employees working together and our attendant forgot a couple things but it all worked out she fixed the errors. All our food was fresh-I wasn't a big fan of the tuna sandwich, but the bacon egg cheese sandwich was delicious. Grabbed a couple pastries for later. Definitely worth a try!!

    Super cute bakery and lunch place in old town tehachapi. Although not much parking, we were able to get a spot in their 60 minute slots. Even though it was busy, our order line went fast. If ordering a sandwich, they have custom order forms on clip boards out side which makes the line go faster. Most sandwiches are between $10 and $15. The food is tasty and definitely worth the stop!

    Visiting area & trying out different eateries during our stay. We attended the Annual Apple Festival, missed out on apple pies and wife was craving something sweet. Stopped in & immediately felt like we were back in Germany (we were stationed there years ago). Loved the decor and the design of the dining area. You order at a counter which is full of temptations- LOL. Friendly Staff assist with your selections, still no apple pie (got to be early for best selections). Wife walked out with a coffee (very good), a blueberry pie, and a slice of German Chocolate Cake. WOW- The German Chocolate Cake was absolutely AMAZING. We shared and I had to walk away as I was starting to get greedy. The Blueberry Pie was also very good (still working on it). Definitely one of the best Bakeries yet !!!

    This place is awesome, such a wide variety of bread, sandwiches, and of course sweets. They have homemade fresh pies. The seating was plenty, with friendly staff. Just love how awesome this experience was. I will be back.

    Just go!! You'll thank me later.. Lots and lots of all kinds of breads, desserts, cookies, pies!!!!! Very friendly staff and helpful with everything. It's cool when you walk in, it gives it a country barn feel.

    The Ruben sandwich here is AMAZING! Everything here is good, definitely worth the drive! We go every year after the Bark For Life event!

    This was my first time stopping by Kohnen's on our way to Yosemite NP. We wanted a sandwich and pastry and this was the perfect place to get them. The location was super easy to find and the bakery is part of the Tehachapi Train Depot Museum. Which would make it ideal if you have little ones. The employees were very friendly and the ambiance was laid back. We tried the Cubano and the Reuben sandwich and both were so delicious. The sandwiches were loaded with super tasty meats. I especially loved the Reuben because of all the sauce and sour kraut. Before I forget, let me mention that the sandwiches come with a small bag of chips which I wasn't paying attention and ended up buying a bag of chips. Now to the pastry's, OMG the carrot cake! Kohnen's carrot cake is one of the best carrot cakes I've had. From the frosting to the two layers of deliciousness. I bought one to eat there and one to go. I also tried their cheesecake and oh boy, I'm a fan! Will definitely be stopping by here every time I come to Yosemite.

    Me when it's Thursday and it's closed. I get so mad. This place needs to be open on Thursdays in summer so I can go during farmers market

    Best place in all of Tehachapi. This FREAKIIINGGG bakery is so absolutely peak if I were to die it would be because I ate too many of the lemon bars here. Their pastries are so amazing. And every time it hits an o'clock there's little doll things that sing that peak song in sound of music. You can get your pastries really fast because they're right there in front of you when you walk in and e nice workers will hand it to you. I've rarely ever had problems with the people here. ANNMDDD THERES A PLACE TO EAT UNDER THE STAIRS THAT I CALL THE HARRY POTTER SPOT. ITS MYYYUY SPOT!

    We stopped by this bakery on our way to Mojave to have lunch. I ordered a turkey sandwich, chocolate croissant and almond croissant for later. My friends ordered a tuna melt and ham sandwich. Everything came out fast and I have to tell you it is so hard to pick what I want to try when I visit this place. Everything looks delicious. The service is fast and friendly, they answered my questions with a smile. We chose to eat outside today because it was such nice weather. Their outdoor seating is perfect and shaded. I adore this place.

    What a fun bakery and sandwich shop! Everyone was so nice and the food was so good! Big portions and very reasonable! It's not by accident they're so busy all the time! If you are driving by, you have to stop and get some highway treats!

    Turkey sandwich
    Michael S.

    My wife talked me into trying this place out today flaring our visit to Tehachapi. I originally didn't want anything just going with the wife cause she had to try it. So glad I did! Right when you walk in your happy you did, the decor was so cute and fun like a pastry shop in Solvang! The desert display cases are works of art! Every looked like a picture, so delicious and beautifully made! Now I'm changing my mind but I just had a donut so sweets are off the table but the have sandwiches!! I ordered the Rubin in rye and wife ordered turkey in cheese bread and a few sweets! The Rubin was amazing!! Very authentic! All very high quality ingredients and portions were very generous to the prices! My wife's turkey sandwich was delicious as well! What a great overall experience and we can't wait to come back!!!

    Ask the Community - Kohnen's Country Bakery

    Do you have German crumb cake? Its's similar to a Beehive coffee cake. We lived in Germany for 4 years and I miss it so much. I can't find anything like it.

    I'm not sure if Bienenstich is the same as Bee Hive cake. We used to make it years ago, but it didn't sell well with our mostly American Customers. Because it was a lot of work, we decided to stop making it due to low sales. So sorry.

    Why are you closed?

    We are not closed. Our hours are 6am-6pm Sunday, Monday, Tuesday. Closed Wednesday and Thursday. 6am-6pm Friday and Saturday.

    Do they serve sandwiches around 4:00?

    The serve cold sandwiches after 4, they dont serve hot after 4 like the Reuben.

    Has anyone had the peanut butter cookies here, been craving a good peanut butter cookie like the one at Disneyland but don't want to drive to LA, thank you?

    I loved their peanut butter cookie. Have not been to Disneyland. What is great about this bakery it is a true bakery and everything we had was amazing,

    The proprietors are the sweetest people. My family was visiting from out of state for the Christmas…read morebreak and had a hankering for pie so we brought them here. We left with at least three whole pies! And some single serving pie slices! And a wonderful gift from the owners! There were only seven of us, but, all of that pie got eaten. And they were delicious. Banana cream, pumpkin, peach, all were to die for. The shop features a beautifully arranged selection of teas and jams and gifts and sample trays. We love sample trays. Tehachapi is so lucky to have this place and we are lucky to live within walking distance

    This is half boutique and half pies/foods…read more The boutique is a nice shop to pick up something fun or a gift for someone else. I often pop in here for a hostess gift or thank you gift. They make pies (of course) as well as some other foods. Because I'm gluten-free and dairy-free, this limits me... but I'm SO happy they always have a safe pie I can buy. (And I have never had a gluten reaction to their GF items.) Their gluten-free dairy-free apple pie has been a bit bland for me. So I recently opted for their berry pie and WOW it did not disappoint! The berry pie was nice and flavorful!!! I bake as suggested by doing an egg wash on top, and that gives the top crust a really nice texture. I've also had their GF breads (because they sometimes have GF ones that are also dairy-free) and they are super yummy. The prices are a bit high, so I don't splurge too often. But I'm grateful there is safe pie for me when I really want it.

We were there on a Sunday afternoon and the Sunday afternoon knitting club was there knitting and pearling away while they sipped delicious coffee and ate delicacies from the baked goods. We were there for the delicious turkey ciabatta sandwich. The bread is toasted and it just makes the turkey spinach and tomato covered with melted provolone so much more tasty I chatted a while with members of the knitting club while we waited for our sandwich. They're there every Sunday and they knit for people that have cancer who need hats to stay warm. It's a great community up here in Tehachapi. I was impressed with it several years ago when we held a dance recital here this coffee shop seems to be sort of a club of community activity. The only downside is it does take a while to get your order because they're busy, but that sandwich was worth waiting for, and it made the miles from Tehachapi to Mojave speed by

    One thing that I absolutely enjoy from Save Mart is their crispy chicken strips. You can't beat…read morethem My family really enjoys them too. With all my health things going on the two surgeries, the cancer, all I could think of was the crispy chicken strips. I miss them in the last couple months. It sounds silly, but couldn't wait to get them, so I called and I spoke to Cherie. I think she may be the manager of that department. I told her the situation probably more than she needed to know, but I was telling her I wanted to order them so they'd be fresh when my daughter picked them up. Cherie had nothing but the most wonderful, comforting words that she could say to me. She honestly made me feel like she really cared. When my daughter picked up the chicken strips for me, there was the sweetest note written on the bag. This is a perfect example of going above and beyond and making customers feel cared about. I admit I'm very emotional at this time in my life, and I read that and started crying. What may have seem like a small gesture on her part actually was huge in my world. I can't wait until I can drive again and I am healed so I can personally go in and thank her. I did call her, and I also called corporate office to tell them about the note and how she made me feel. Cherie, thank you! This is why I will continue to shop here. 4/30/26
