"Kolache Shoppe—not to be confused with The Original Kolache Shoppe—sells what seems like hundreds of sweet and savory kolaches. Like cherry-filled or kielbasa-and-cheese stuffed inside the softest, squishiest bread that keeps folks backed up in the drive-thru for hours every weekend morning. Each kolache has a perfect bread-to-filling ratio, with a garlicky half-moon of kielbasa blanketed inside. These are small enough that we like to grab two or three at a time to squirrel away one in our pocket for a little afternoon sausage support." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene, julie takahashi
"This kolache haven will lean into the pumpkin craze through October with $6 spiced pumpkin cream cold brew drinks topped with pumpkin-flavored cold foam and spiced pumpkin lattes made with Boomtown espresso, fall spices, and condensed milk. However, diners who want to try the exclusively seasonal pumpkin cream kolache must venture to the Pearland location. The kolache awaits, layered with sweetened cream cheese, spiced pumpkin puree, and crumbled graham crackers." - Brittany Britto Garley
"With 54 years of loyal clientele and top-notch pastries served at four area locations, this bakery has stood the test of time. Kolache Shoppe guarantees more than 25 varieties of kolaches that are stuffed with sweet or savory fillings, like Polish sausage, venison, brisket, and egg, as well as specials and restaurant collaborations that keep things interesting. Its most recent partnership with Mediterranean restaurant Craft Pita has yielded a buttery Lebanese sausage and cheese kolache that’s stuffed with Hot Soujouk beef link sausage with a sprinkle of za’atar seasoning." - Brittany Britto Garley
"To experience the full spectrum of kolache magic, get a box of three sweet and three savory pastries to share with friends. After all, when visiting friends in the morning around here, it’s customary to show up with a box of kolaches. As kolaches are a breakfast food, Kolache Shoppe opens at 6 a.m. and closes by noon." - Atlas Obscura
"Kolache Shoppe—not to be confused with The Original Kolache Shoppe—has four spots around town, including The Heights. It feels like each shop sells hundreds of different kolaches with so many buoyant little balls of baked dough packed into the pastry counter. Apart from stellar seasonal specials, like biscoff latte or s’mores with a giant torched marshmallow, the quintessential sausage and cheese bread-to-filling ratio is too high, so it eats more like a roll than a kolache. But if you want variety, Kolache Shoppe has any kind you can conceive. photo credit: Kolache Shoppe photo credit: Kolache Shoppe photo credit: Kolache Shoppe photo credit: Kolache Shoppe photo credit: Kolache Shoppe Pause Unmute" - Chelsea Thomas
