If you haven't been run to this bakery for y or t next cake order. It was super easy to order online but they were out of the red velvet online so I called and they said they could make it since I was picking up three days from when I called. I picked it up slightly after the 11am pick up time I had requested on a Sunday morning. The place was packed with people picking up cakes and ordering pastries and other sweet treats. We used the cake for a birthday celebration and everyone raved about how delicious it was without being too sweet. I will be back to try the lattes and other sweet treats.. read more

Rheinlander Bakery - Red velvet cake - Bakeries Near Me - Arvada, Colorado

Looking for a breakfast spot or bakery while in Arvada and found Rheinlander Bakery... Wow... So many incredible options!! I bought several things... all of them were delicious!! read more

This is a very good bakery, with an incredible pastry and cake selection. There was also a very large gluten-free pastry selection. I tried four different pastries and one streusel. All the baked items were delicious. There were numerous cakes to choose from, I will order cake during one of my next visits. I wanted tea to drink with my dessert, and the tea selection was very large and affordable. This bakery has something for everybody, and the staff are extremely friendly and willing to assist customers. read more

Been thinking about my earlier review and then conversation with the owner, and then her response that motivated me to delete my negative review. It's time to set things straight.... I called the shop and asked to speak with the owner after I posted a review about my husband's horrible birthday cake. Dry, tasted funny like coconut (it's red velvet) and wanted to know about a return. She insisted that I bring it back to the shop, but I'm an hour a way and wasn't going to make an extra trip. The gaslighting that I experienced and lack of any apology was astounding. She never acknowledged our dissatisfaction. She started saying things like they have to freeze all of their products, since they are such a large operation, as if that's supposed to justify the horrible tasting cake. We went back and forth and realized she wasn't listening to me. I got defensive and said a few choice words and then hung up. We threw the cake down the disposal, just like she threw this customer away. Didn't anyone teach you that the customer is right? Please don't answer me or say things that are not true in another defensive response. The cake tasted horrible and that's the truth. I'm sorry that you couldn't accept the truth. If you think that a customer complaining about a bad product is attacking or being hostile, you don't know anything about customer service. read more

Rating - 4.5 - Went here on 7/4/24. First time here. Found them on IG. Very friendly staff. Very attentive. No seats inside. A couple right outside their door. But in Old Town Arvada you'll find quite a few tables along the sidewalk. We ordered a Chewy Snickerdoodle Cookie, Key Lime Cake, a lemon cake and a chocolate cake. All small pieces. Everything was good. The cookie could have been more chewy. Then there're could have been more lime flavor in the cake. But will definitely be back and try more things. read more

Great gem in downtown Arvada. German bakery with an amazing selection of baked treats and coffees. Hard to pick just one treat. Friendly and fast service , it was busy when we went but still got helped quickly. Quaint little bakery. Everything we tried was top notch! Got cute decorated cookies for kids too read more

I have stopped here three times on my trips through the Denver area. I'm always impressed by the quality and variety of this delicious business read more

Stopped in after leaving So Radish, which is just a few doors down. There weren't a lot of vegan options. I tried a chocolate truffle brownie and a vanilla cupcake with fudge buttercream icing. Both were gluten-free and delicious. If I was in the area, I'd stop by to try more of their vegan pastries. read more

Very good recommendation from one of the girls working at the bakery. I don't remember the name of the dessert and it didn't last long enough for me to take a picture. The picture I took was of butter beer, but that is not the dessert that I am writing about. The butter beer was okay it had a peanut butter and chocolate flavor, but it was not my favorite. Because it was a bit too salty. read more

Rheinlander Bakery - Butter beer - Bakeries Near Me - Arvada, Colorado

Rhinelander is THE place to get baked goods. I ordered my third Black Forest whipped cream cake from here, in 3 years for a birthday. We have also had plenty of pastries and cookies from here over the years. Great bakers, great service! read more

Great little bakery. They have everything to standard baked goods to strudels. I go mainly for the streudels. I've had some of the other things, but I felt like they were somewhat standard (good, but also could get anywhere). I would say go for the strudels, personally. It's not a sit down place at all, but you can order a pastry and a coffee and then you need to find someplace to eat it. Not the cheapest place but it's a good place to get some quality baked goods for a special occasion. Also, just have some patience when you are there. They are often busy (but worth the wait!) read more

I got cupcakes for a small birthday celebration, I had to the chef selection as they all looked amazing, and they were fresh and a huge hit.

The store itself is really cute. There is so much selection, and everyone was really welcoming. However, the actual baked goods were just average. I will not be coming back. The marshmallow was grainy, the baklava was way too sweet, the cookie tasted so eggy, the cupcake was decent, but still not great for the price. Everything was expensive...and not worth it in comparison to other bakeries. The only decent thing was the baby king cake. read more

Rheinlander Bakery - Regular baklava, homemade marshmallow, spiced hot chocolate cupcake, baby king cake, sugar cookie - Bakeries Near Me - Arvada, Colorado

Super cute bakery in an adorable part of Denver that I've never been to. They have a huge selection of baked goods and also coffee to accompany the delicious sweet treats. The lady who took care of us was super nice and patient (we were with a 2year old who wanted to get everything) and also helpful. Definitely would go back there to buy more goodies if I'm ever around. read more

I love this German Bakery located in the heart of Old Town Arvada. I went in around 2:30 pm on a weekday and they still had ample fresh treats available for purchase. I got a mix of 5 things for my boyfriend and I to share. A slice of blueberry cream cheese streusel, apple streusel, baklava, billionaires shortbread and chocolate toffee cake (tasted like an upscale ho-ho). Even in the afternoon, there was a line but it moved quickly. The breakfast pastries were both delicious. The baklava was both of our favorites and also the best baklava either of us have ever had which is wild. The other two authentic pastries were bland. $6 a pop was a bit steep given the size of the pastries, but it was fun to try them all. It won't be a regular spot but definitely somewhere for a special treat on occasion. read more

WOW. I was trying to find a good bakery in Denver and I'm SO glad I found this place. The reviews are not kidding - this is an amazing bakery and everything I got (a smattering of about six pastries) were amazing. The only thing I didn't like was the flow of the bakery. There's no clear place to order and the aisles are a bit small so it's kinda tough to view everything before placing an order if there are other customers. But let's be honest - this small annoyance is not enough to knock this place down by a star. The pastries are *excellent*. read more

So after spending over $400 on our annual holiday gifts for our clients, I cannot be believe for 1 secod how badly II was treated, and the the absolute lack of quality in every single one of these boxes, unbelievable. . The young man you had working in the front was super vexed by the fact that I had ordered so mich. 11 dozen treats is suxh a huge ask??? Better believe he charged me for the one decorated treat per box and seemingly your entire crew never once tried to get anyone above him/management to help I'm better off just getting pilsbury cookies. I should have 100%. listened to everyone in Old Towne Arvada, and not gone back! Never again garbage bakery. Sincerely, Emily Rettich 50 year resident of Old Town Arvada, the founder ot the old town arvada cruise ride.And now your most vocal critic against what a rip off piece of crap, people are going to overpay for. read more

Walking in here was dangerous. There are homemade cakes, cookies, strudel, confections and lots of coffee. Everything looks delicious and is artful decorated, it's quite impressive. I wanted to try everything! We opted for a cookie and two strudel rolls, the blueberry and the cherry. The cookie was a rainbow sprinkle and I found it to be okay, but compared to the ones you get a grocery store, I'd probably go for the grocery store (shrug). We had the rolls the next morning for breakfast and MAN WERE THOSE AMAZING! The place totally redeemed itself, and if I lived closer, this would really become an addiction. The only thing that really knocked the star for me was the customer service. We were in there with about 4 other customers and none of us were addressed or helped for over 5 minutes. There was no clear place to order and we were all kind of hovering by the registers looking for someone to help us. One lady asked another couple if they had been helped, they said no, and she actually walked away and started doing other things. As I've only been in once, I can't say this is standard treatment, but they had about 7-8 people behind the counter, so surely one of them could have popped up to say "we'll be with you soon." This quick pit-stop on our way back to our car took nearly 15 minutes. I'm not going to let that interaction deter me or anyone else from visiting, I just hope that's not the norm. Definitely get the strudel! read more

Really nice little bakery. Surrounding area is very nice. Would recommend. The staff is very nice and knowledgeable. They even recommended activities for us to do around Denver since we were visiting. Recommends this place for any of their pastry you can't go wrong. If you get the cake and flying would recommend the frozen ones. Personally got the dobash which was really good and the strudels. My friend is a big fan of their snickerdoodles read more

What a fabulous bakery, made all the more delightful because I discovered it entirely by accident. I bailed on a long, slow coffee line at another shop, and walked the short distance to this place shortly after it opened. I was warmly greeted by not only a friendly "Good morning!" by one of their staff, but also by the heavenly aroma of fresh bread, pastries, cakes and pies. Is there anything more heavenly? No, there isn't. Suddenly awash with baked inspiration, I decided also to purchase a sticky bun to accompany my coffee. By this point, you should not be surprised to learn that this was easily the best sticky bun I've ever had. The coffee was delicious and fresh, too. I'll be making this spot a frequent stop during my morning walks. I'll always be getting coffee, I expect, and can't wait to sample a few more of their delicious baked goods. read more

Delicious treats! The smell drew me in and I was so happy it did. I got the raspberry truffle for me and the peanut butter bon bon for my husband and we both loved them. It's a little pricey but worth it. The staff were also very friendly even though it was super busy. I'll definitely be back! read more

Pretty good experience ordering a cake for a friend's birthday. I was told this is an authentic German bakery from this friend who has both visited and lived in Germany short term. We got the fondant cake with champagne icing which was delicious! It was a bit sweeter than my preference but this may be normal for German bakeries. I requested by order to be ready prior to their standard store opening hour and they did not disappoint. I was happy they were able to both custom bake the cake and cater to my request. I do want to go back and try the other selections which just looks heavenly! I do wish packaging was a bit better to account for cakes that are larger or have toppings. This would alleviate my anxiety transporting such a large and beautifully decorated cake. read more

This is a great bakery with a huge selection of treats. I'll pick up some sugar free treats for my diabetic grandparents and get some baklava for myself. Service is always friendly and speedy. The selection might be overwhelming, but you can't go wrong with any of their amazing treats! read more

Have not been since before covid but we were in the area so thought it would be nice. We were wrong. It tasted like from frozen box mix vs. fresh bakery. Not sure what happened to the quality here but it's not what we remembered. read more

If i die of a sugar induced something-or-other, let it be known that I was happy to eat here at 8:50am today. It's my anniversary so I treated my partner to a bunch of sweets for breakfast! We got apple strudel and lemon bar strudel, apple streusel, carrot cake bar, vanilla horn cone (?) which looked like a pastry cone filled with cream, a raspberry chocolate mousse bar, and a RB coffee mug! The guy helping us out was the epitome of helpful and outstanding customer service. They have a ton of gluten free options (awesome, but not for me) and he suggested the regular versions of a few things that looked good from the gluten-side. He also let us know that we could go ahead and get a coffee in the mug this visit! Great first visit, happy to support! read more

5 star customer service. I needed an order with piping/message on it & they did it in a matter of minutes. Very impressed in this day and age by a small business that has such incredible and kind service. And the deserts speak for themselves! Phenomenal! Must visit spot in old towne! Snickerdoodle cookies are amazing, and we got 4 streusel rolls :) read more

Be careful when ordering for the holidays. The minimum order for Thanksgiving was six cakes! Not a variety of cakes. The same cake. The pastries are in twelve packs only one flavor. No assortments. I had called and asked if I could come in and place an order as it is less than one week until the holiday. I was assisted by a very young female wearing a ski cap with her hair hanging down. When advised of the minimums for ordering I was shocked. When questioned about it the response was "that's our policy" and she shrugged her shoulders. I left and returned within minutes and asked for a manager. The same person was at the register and she smiled and said "I am the manager and I am helping another customer". For better customer service, they might want to look at improving their website and how they respond to callers. By the way the website allows for ordering only one cake. read more

I have lived old a few miles from here for over two years now. I knew it was there, but I had never been in before. I was in the neighborhood last year and was wanting to stop in on a Saturday last summer but the place is so popular they had a line around the block. Clearly, it is popular. Now I know why. I decided to see what kinds of vegan options they had on Friday afternoon before we left to go to the mountains for the weekend. It wasn't too busy and every single item in the little shop looked amazing. They had a huge selection of beautiful little, cakes, cupcakes, cookies and sweet treats. There weren't a ton of vegan items to choose from but if there were it probably would have taken me all day to decide. I believe all the vegan items were also gluten-free. They also had a lot of dairy-free and allergy-friendly options and everything was very clearly labeled. I got four of the small pastries, the carrot cake, a strawberry cream, a black almond forest, and a peanut butter chocolate rice crispy thing. They traveled well and stayed fresh in the fridge. My husband and I split each little cake in half so we could each try all of the cakes. They were all heavenly sweet and delicious. We both liked all of them but our favorite was definitely the peanut butter chocolate rice crispy thing. It was more like a candy bar than a cake and I have never had a candy bar quite like that. I think I might be addicted. I would go back and buy them all now if they were still open. Can't wait to come back and try more delicious German-style treats. read more

Rheinlander Bakery - Assorted vegan gluten free cakes and chocolate goodies. - Bakeries Near Me - Arvada, Colorado

Apple Strudel: So delicious! Tart and sweet. It tasted like really good apple pie. Cream Cheese Streusel: Subtly sweet and mild, wished the cream cheese flavor was stronger. Red Velvet Pastry: Moist and crumbly, but overall very bland. read more

I absolutely love this German bakery! It is so authentic. One thing I miss about Germany was going into the bakeries and the freshness of the bread or the pastries. As soon as you walk into Rheinlander Bakery, it smells sweet and true to Germany. The selection is so vast that you need a good minute to decide what you want to try. They have gluten free and vegan free choices. It was great to take our little vegan nephew for his vegan cupcake. He loved it!!!! Another great aspect of this place is the customer service. Everyone is so attentive and friendly! You can get your order placed even with it being so busy. They always are smiling and willing to give great suggestions. A must visit if you are in Olde Town!! read more

Omg that streusel though..... I mean wow! That was fantastic.

Don't go anywhere else for dessert in Arvada, CO. I found it :-) read more

Lots going on here! Certainly not your average bakery though. They do have hot drinks but think cakes and delicately decorated pastries more than everyday "cookies and donuts." Unfortunately some of their offerings are only good for a day or two. That's not a bad thing. Just very fresh baked goods that demand to be eaten and not left on your countertop or office break room for too long. You can get individual baked goods or a small or even a large box to go for later. They seem to decorate cakes or other special orders if you call ahead or stop in to place an order. Certainly a nice touch for a holiday party or gifts for those you are especially close with. Prices are "high" but so is the quality. Gluten free, vegan, and dairy free options are available. Fifty plus years and still in business so they must be doing something right. read more

The baked goods are always amazing... if one of the ten folks in the store will actually serve you...after standing in the confusing line, we followed our friends over to the danish counter. The girl behind the counter helped our friends, then walked away after ringing them up. We stood for five minutes as folks just walked past and gossiped with each other... I didn't want to have to speak up... we were obviously looking to get served...we finally just left... very sad because we don't get to Arvada often and we like to stop here for a sweet treat...but the service is garbage read more

This place is a cheerful oasis to step away from the day to day, with the most friendly employees. They have yummy marzipan-tasting items, including a lovely sugar free horseshoe shaped pastry. The mini cakes were flavorful, but way too sweet, which is the only reason it's not 5 stars. I wish they had some seating options indoors, they only had some tables outside. Heads up - there is only 10 minute parking by the building, I parked on the street just outside the pedestrian area and walked over. read more

I do not advise anyone to purchase a Gluten Free or Gluten Free Vegan cake. We have found the cake itself to be flavorless and dried out. We had to use a butcher knife to cut the cake this Xmas. We ended up throwing out the $70 cake. read more

Had to run a couple errands in Arvada and I did what I do best, and ended up on Yelp looking for a new place to try. Rheinlander bakery went above and beyond my expectations. They have a Yelp Check-in for a free sweet roll with any purchase, don't pass up this opportunity. We loaded up on all sorts of things, sticky buns, streusels, biscottis, cookies, cupcakes and so much more. Each item comes in so many different yummy flavors, and they have a huge selection of gluten free, dairy free, and vegan options catering to everyone. Ive been back a few times, and each time is better than the last! read more

Great selection of streusel and gluten free also. You can pick up a piece or the whole thing. Everything is delicious and lines tend to move quickly. Remember to park in the public lot a block away to make it easier to pick up. read more

Rhinelanders motto is: the bakery is always right. The customer gets what the bakery makes when the bakery makes it the way the bakery makes it. I tried to order their cream horns, which are very good minus the disgusting stuff they dip it in and they informed me that that's the way the bakery makes their creamed horns.Period. I'll never shop there again. read more

We went for their Christmas in July. I was sort of bummed none of the Christmas items were vegan, but we still found some goodies and vegan treats to make up for it! The vegan treats were the favorite of all the things we tried. That vegan German chocolate cupcake was so deliciously yummy I was smiling while eating it I'm sure! My husband tried the German Christmas cookies and they were decorated so cute!! At $6 a cookie, they were a little pricey, and he said they were ok. We were happy to support a small business, but probably wouldn't go for a $6 cookie again. The employees were very nice and helpful. If you were wondering about trying this German bakery, wonder no more! Give them a try! read more
