    Smells great pastries and the sheepherds bread. Pastries are absolutely huge. Coffee is also very affordable, best to get the morning started

    Tiramisu pastry (only if someone twists your arm)
    Zia M.

    Excited to try the new bakery for lunch. Nevada Trip Tip was a ho hum chewy disappointment, definitely a hard pass. The saving grace was the wonderful lady who took the order in her stylish glasses so friendly and welcoming! And the fries were crunchy yet no Heinz tomato ketchup. The cakes at the entrance looked interesting. The Italian cookie was too sweet like dosing on spoonfuls of sugar. Salty and sweet a balance would have been nice. The raspberry center got stuck to the parchment paper bag. The Tiramisu was ok, nothing to write home about let alone finish. The extra hot latte was as expected. Extra Hot and delivered the caffeine dose needed. Ambiance is nice. We would have liked to be regulars. For the cakes or honey. Found the carne asada tacos at Centro market (first time) more delicious, 20 mins after sharing a sandwich here. Go there!

    I've been told to try Schats by so many people and I can see why. Their service is so genuinely friendly. It's a cozy, clean environment with a small town feel. There are a few people set up on laptops working and others meeting for a quick coffee date. I love the overall vibe.

    Stopped here to check out this well-known bakery. Lots of bread, pastry and sandwich options as well as fresh squeeze OJ, coffee, and tea drinks. Enjoyed the cheddar jalapeno bagel (but they ran out of cream cheese?) and cute banana marzipan. The cherry turnover was fine but not memorable. But what I really enjoyed was a pre-made "express" sandwich that had ham, cheese, and buttered bread. Completely delicious, and something I'd come back for. Also, picked up a jar of Scandinavian Delights orange marmalade ... my absolute favorite brand and a nice surprise to find on sale here. Despite a fairly busy morning, everything was clean, and we were able to find a table without a problem. Nice atmosphere and plenty of parking nearby. A little surprised there wasn't a breakfast menu, but will have to come back and explore more of the lunch menu options like the tri-tip sandwich.

    Little quaint sandwich shop with some fair prices! Girlfriend and I stopped by here for lunch, because we were surprised to see a Schats bakery outside of California. I love Eric Schats bakery out in Bishop, CA, but this is one here is a little different. They're still related, but operating at a smaller scale. We had shared the pastrami sandwich, and enjoyed it! Everything tasted fresh and good came out quick. If you're looking for a good and quick bite, i definitely recommend come here. Plus, they also a nice selection of breads and desserts.

    Always good food, and great pastry. Our favorite bread too! Attentive cashier and service in a small dining area.

    Such a hidden gem! Northern Nevadans and locals alike know where to stop when looking for a special treat or sweet indulgence when in the area. Being from Reno, I always stop by Paul Schat's whenever I drive through Carson City to grab a bakery treat or fresh artisan bread for the upcoming week. The bakery offers a comfortable seating area and an array of freshly made sandwiches/burgers, breakfast & coffee, a WIDE array of baked goods, seasonal treats, cakes, artisan breads - you name it! The bakery is tucked away in the back of a shopping center and is open 7 days a week - 6am to 6pm! Definitely recommend the artisan breads, my family loves the artisan Sourdo & Asiago Romano cheese bread, coconut macaroons, croissants, array of coffee cakes, and strudels! We have yet to try something we do not enjoy. Definitely recommend if you are looking to fulfill a baked goods craving or looking for a unique local gift for friends and family.

    Yummy honey bran muffins. How much would you pay for these??
    Rose B.

    I sent my husband to this bakery earlier this week for their fresh baked blueberry & bran muffins. I ate the blueberry (dense, lacks flavor); but the honey bran was flattened on the top, gooey, it was burnt all the way around the edges and globs of honey were exposed. I could not believe he was actually charged money for that muffin. The whole lot should have been thrown out. I ended up with horrific abdominal pain in the hospital ER for better than four hours. I don't know what was wrong with those muffins but it's going to cost my family $2650 (out of pocket) for sampling them.

    Came here for lunch when we were on the way to Lake Tahoe. It was in Carson city located inside a plaza. There was also a cafe on the side and when you go further down there's a counter to order sandwiches and food. The staff was helpful when we were deciding between 2 sandwiches. Facility was clean and felt homey inside. We got the Reuben stacker which has pastrami and sauerkraut. We shared so it was the perfect amount since it was a bigger portion. Overall delicious and perfect place to get a quick sandwich!

    Pretty underwhelming! My first visit and disappointing sandwich! The tomato could not have been sliced any thinner, a single leaf of lettuce. I had high hope as I have heard Schats has excellent sandwiches, but for $12.95, I'll go to Jimmy John's instead!

    Bear claw with almond filling!!
    Priscilla H.

    Love looking at bakeries so came in and what a treat! Fresh crusty ciabatta rolls I can't wait to eat with salted butter! We also bought an almond bear claw. I can't wait to try it. They do have a larger one available for like $10. I would have bought it but afraid I would eat it all myself. Me and the hubby shared the rueben sandwich made in their pumpernickel rye bread . YUM!

    Everyone was very kinda and helpful in here! It was also very clean and well stocked! Wonderful experience!!

    1/19/2025:  First-Born Daughter and I ate a couple pastries, drank coffee; the nut pastry was AWESOME!

    Visiting Carson City for the first time in years, I had really high hopes for this place. When we…read morewalked in I really liked how it was decorated and it had a good vibe. We came for breakfast and we had a very simple order. It consisted of a breakfast burrito, Gold Latte, a coffee and a lemon poppy seed muffin. It shouldn't be too hard to fulfill this order right? Wrong! My breakfast burrito and Gold Latte came out first. The burrito was good and the Gold Latte was also tasty. The woman that dropped off my order asked if we had anything else coming. I told her we had ordered a lemon poppy seed muffin. She never came back. Another woman came over with a muffin but it was blueberry. Wrong again. At this point, we decided to skip the muffin and I requested my money back since I was getting frustrated. No apology either for not being able to get the order right. I love supporting a women owned business but I just found it hard to understand how a simple order could confuse so many people. Perhaps there is an issue between the front of the house and the kitchen?? Maybe it was an off day but it did not seem that way.

I have to say this place is absolutely amazing and the staff is wonderful. The young gal that takes our order, always knows what we want and remembers it every week. I absolutely have no idea how she does it. She's friendly and very professional and makes you feel comfortable when you're there. Not only does Hacienda have great food. But they have an excellent selection of groceries and Mexican sweet bread for your enjoyment. They also have an excellent meat market with a great selection at different cuts of meats. As well as a bakery in the back. I'm not sure if they do birthday cakes or not but I think they might. The place is clean and colorful. There's plenty of parking. However, during lunchtime, it does get pretty busy so normally when we meet there, we meet after the lunch hour. Hacienda market and Grill is well known in the Carson City area. But if you've never been there, I highly suggest you get down there and try some of their amazing food and delicious sweet bread.!
