O&H DANISH BAKERY

Danishes are still out of this world good!!!!! But...super disappointed with the pecan kringle this year so only 4 stars. It's not the same quality as I remember from over the last 60 years that we have been buying. Pecan was mostly paste filling and not the crunchy yummy pecan filling of the past. Wheres the nuts? I just feel like the kringle has lost its lustre. I will stick to danishes and the amazing pecan rolls in the future! It's still, hands down, the best bakery in Racine in my opinion.

Just go order one to be delivered for any occasion and you will continue to order them periodically because they are stupid delicious, reasonably priced, and delivered very quickly. I believe there are some grocery outlets that sell them as well. When you see the O&H Kringle label, simply pick one up…you won’t regret it ever!

Went to buy a Banana Cream Pie Kringle. While there I also bought 4 Danish and 4 Frosted cookies. I love the bakery at O&H. No matter who waits on you or checks you out are always very friendly. The store is always clean, well organized, and well stocked. I love going to O&H, it’s not close to where I live but well worth the trip!

Definitely the best Kringle I've ever had. High end experience great quality,helpful staff. Excellent sandwiches.

Dulce de Leche Paczki: O&H Danish Bakery opened in 1949 and has been family owned for four generations. Although they’re known primarily for their Kringles, one of their unique seasonal offerings is paczki. A paczki is sometimes confused with a doughnut, but there are some key differences. Paczki are denser, richer, and chewier because they contain more eggs, butter, and enriching ingredients like high-gluten flour and grain alcohol. Like a bismark doughnut, they are deep-fried dough, filled with confiture (yuck) or other sweet filling, and are usually covered in powdered sugar, icing, or glaze. They originated in Poland as a way to use up leftover ingredients that are considered rich in flavor before the start of lent. Don't feel bad if you've never heard of paczki as they are a regional treat in the U.S. (primarily in the Midwest). Even though I've lived in the Midwest my entire life, I've avoided paczki as I find fruit filling to be gross (like traditional prune, really!?). O&H solved my problem with their new Dulce de Leche Paczki. It's absolutely stuffed with smooth caramel custard, topped with rich caramel icing, and teeming with crunchy toffee bits and a few chocolate chunks. My paczki was huge and hefty thanks to all that filling, and they did not skimp like some doughnut shops notoriously do. To be honest, I did not notice any difference with the texture compared to that of a doughnut (not a complaint, just observation). Another observation is it looked different from the stock photo and even some of the others on display. Specifically, it had significantly less chocolate chunks and way more toffee. I was disappointed initially, but it ended up being irrelevant because what surprised me the most was the crunchy toffee bits. The texture and flavor were fantastic, while on the other hand the chocolate was overly bitter. In the end, I chose wisely for my first ever paczki, Doughboy approved 😋 Doughboy_Food_Reviews *I hope this is back next year and that they continue to experiment with non-fruit flavors, like Nutella and cookie butter. It would be nice if paczki were available for a week or so instead of one day, but there might be a logistical reason for that or they're just traditionalists. I also want to note that I chose O&H over several other local bakeries for my first paczki for a few key reasons: 1. Online ordering 2. Multiple locations (one was conveniently near me) 3. Flavor selection 4. Price

Best kringles ever! Nice danish bakery offering delicious treats! The pumpkin pie is so delicious, its a must try! You can get sime coffee and a bakery item and enjoy at their outdoor seating and beautiful scenery. Lots of parking!

Kringles, doughnuts, pastries, bread, coffee…everything tastes great. Employees are very helpful. Great experience.

UPDATE: It is now February 11th and no one has reached out to me to try to resolve this. And we HAVE purchased other kringles since, which truthfully, weren't much better quality. Very disappointed in a business I used to praise to everyone. I guess the younger generation that's taking over didn't learn good hospitality practices. I purchased a cherry cheese and a Santa's secret kringle on 12/24 for Christmas and was quite disappointed. I know they are frozen at times and are still very good, however, the cherry cheese was extremely dry and the Santa's one was very wet and mushy. What happened? Also, just my opinion, but the "icing " on Santa's was very heavy. And personally, I think a cream cheese icing would compliment the red velvet better.

Did you know that O&H Danish Bakery has a FLAT shipping fee? That's right, $9.99 for one Kringle or one dozen Kringles! That got me thinking. O&H offers seasonal varieties throughout the year. As luck would have it, as the Thanksgiving/Christmas holidays approached there was an overlap of seasonal specials ending and beginning. How could I pass up an opportunity to have my first taste of Bourbon Butterscotch Kringle, Brandy Old Fashioned Kringle, and Tipsy Elf Kringle all for the flat shipping fee of $9.99. Once again I scheduled a Tuesday shipping date expecting the Kringles to arrive the day after Thanksgiving. Low and behold, after receiving an email on the designated Tuesday alerting me that my order was being shipped, the UPS tracking number they provided said that the Kringles should arrive the very next day - and they did. Kringles freeze nicely. With plenty of leftovers expected from Thanksgiving I went to work portioning out the three Kringles into mixed combination packages to freeze. But not before Thanksgiving Eve was spent tasting each of the three varieties. Each one is delicious in its own right. I may, however, be slightly favoring the Brandy Old Fashioned Kringle. In any event, I'm now up to ten different flavors that I've enjoyed. Where will I stop? Your guess is as good as mine. (Trivia - the outer circumference of a Kringle is approximately 42 inches.)

When my local Trader Joe's sells-out of its allocation of kringles, there's always the mail order option from this location in Racine. My TJ's receives a shipment of kringles every three months or so, and they usually don't stay in stock for very long. The nice thing is that the retail price at TJ's is about $10 lower per kringle than ordering via mail from the Racine bakery. That being said, eating freshly baked kringles is a delectable experience that I highly recommend. Many thanks to my wife for introducing me to this Upper Midwestern treat.

Their entire product line is phenomenal! I purchased one of their offerings locally at Trader Joe's and was very impressed. The bakery from this organization is some of the best I have had. I went on their website to see everything they have to offer and place an order. The level of service is exceptional. It was SO easy to navigate and the purchase process was simple (can use PayPal). They gave me a choice of 1, 2 or 3 day delivery and it showed up exactly when they promised. It was packaged perfectly and sustained no damage in shipping. My order included a beautiful catalog of their product line and it is impressive to say the least. I highly recommend you give these folks a try. You'll be as impressed as I am.

Visited today for lunch! They have sandwiches that are made to order - hot or cold. Breakfast or lunch sandwiches. Each sandwich comes with chips and a cookie. I had the danish grilled cheese. Bread was fresh made and yummy! Havarti cheese and blue cheese with bacon and tomato. So good! Friend had game and cheese hot and loved it. Staff was super friendly and accommodating ! Bought a turtle Kringle to share which looks good! I would go back again when I'm in the area.

Apparently the Vikings brought orange cats to the world, Kringle to Wisconsin, and football to Minnesota. So they weren't just about burning and pillaging. This is a cute shop where you can also get coffee, breakfast sandwiches, other fresh baked pastries and gifts, but the real attraction are the many choices of Kringle.

Great pastries and great service. The cinnamon pastry that I had was to die for. This is the best bakery in town! They have a rewards program and a gift section. They have a sit-down area and great options for coffee and even lunch. I can't wait to go back.

Wanna know what is made here at this bakery? Why the most delicious Kringles ever. I was introduced to the world of Kringles many years ago as we had some friends that would always send us one for Christmas. Kringles come in many flavors but I really love the Pecan Kringles. This tasty dutch treat is melt in your mouth luscious yum. I have tried the almond, raspberry, chocolate flavors but I always come back to the pecan flavor as my first choice. You can order them directly from this bakery and they will ship one or however many you order right to your door. They also sell them at Trader Joes. They sell by season. Pecan is sold usually right around Easter. They are reasonably priced at $9.99 and a little more expensive when you buy directly from O&H Danish Bakery. In addition to the Kringles, this bakery also sells danish coffee cakes, hand made danish layer cakes, pastries, brownies, cupcakes, Scandinavian breads, gluten free and special diet items, gift packages etc. These make great gifts to share with friends. It is a good thing that I don't live close to this bakery as I would be there every week making a purchase. I wish I had a picture to share but I already ate the evidence! ;-))

Being half Italian, with a smattering of several other European countries, and having had Eclairs from at least a dozen different places (including Italy) over the years, I feel that I'm well qualified to know what makes a good Eclair. Around my town, finding a good Eclair won't happen. :-( And, finding a place online isn't as easy as is with most other foods So, using Amazon, I ordered (accidentally 2) boxes. Now, rather than shipping both in one box (there was plenty of room), they shipped them separately. :-( I delayed posting a review because I tried three different thawing methods. 1. 2 hour quick thaw at room temperature: Left the shell a bit wet, and soggy. Also, the filling wasn't 100% thawed. 2. 8-10 hrs in the refrigerator: Fully thawed. But, the ganache topping was still a bit solid. 3. 20 hrs in a sealed container in the fridge: Fully thawed. However, this seems to have caused the sugar in the topping to rise, as it tasted too sweet. Also, there was a slight aftertaste that I didn't care for (perhaps too many unnecessary ingredients?). Though, it doesn't last long, between this, and the sugary taste, I don't think I'll finish them off. Now, they taste good, and have filling in almost every bite (which is better than I can say for many other places, including my favorite place in Phoenix, AZ). But, as you can see by the one photo, they are quite small. So, this makes them very expensive. But, to help satisfy a craving, or once every year, or two, then it may be worth it. Though, after having 3 in 2 weeks, I don't think I'll be able to finish them (may even throw I rest out).

Love this place! The Kringles are always so fresh. The staff is super friendly and helpful. It's always so nice to come here everything looks so good! It's not a huge store but perfectly organized I enjoy coming here so cozy and welcoming.

Lots of bakery and deli options. We stopped in on Good Friday and they had tons of cute Easter cakes/treats! Will def come back to order lunch, looked like they had sandwiches and made to order options. Out of everything the Kringle is a must try no matter what

O&H is worth the trip up to WI. Their world renowned Kringle is amazing. Been coming here awhile, and somehow failed to review. Think I have been so mesmerized by this place. I'm certainly a big kid in a bakery shop. Everything in here is delicious. O&H's kringle, donuts are the best. New fav now is garlic toast chips. There are various locations in WI, however this location is my fav.

Fantastic Bakery! I have always seen them on TV and was surprised to see them as I was driving by, I did not know they were not as far away as I thought. I had to stop!! They have a drive through for kringle! I did go in to see what they had. It was wonderful! The staff was really friendly. They had donuts, kringle, cakes and more! They had sandwiches and food you could eat in if you were interested in lunch too. I got some fresh kringle to share with the family for Independence Day. My friend and I tried their donuts-they were light and fluffy just like a great donut should be. They had strudel and cookies and more. I was so happy I stopped. I will be going back to try some more baked goods soon!

The pastries were excellent! As well as the chicken spread! The best pastries we have ever had! The service was amazing, Colton was great, very kind and packaged the pastries carefully. The bakery is beautiful and would be a great place to hangout with friends/family. We will definitely be back again!

A nice variety of fresh pastry to indulge on makes your selection very difficult. They also have Kringles that you can share with friends and family. My go to place when in the area!

I grew up in Milwaukee, Wisconsin & I have lived in four states since moving away. I've ordered from O&H in every state I've lived in, sending to family and friends. They all rave about it... You will not find this delicate, deliciousness at your grocers or any other state. This is old school bakery goodness that doesn't exist anymore. Be sure you order from O &H because there are others in Racine, but they do not compare. I guarantee your satisfaction!

O&H Kringle is excellent too! I'll have to get it from here! Great variety of fall flavors too!

I happened to find the almond Kringle at trader Joe's before Christmas. I have never bought them before, they were a huge hit. I bought two and they were gone. I looked them up online and they have many flavors and also many yummy sounding treats. I will definitely purchase from the online store in the future. 12-28-23

You never really know what kind of experience you'll get here. Some days the service is great -- friendly and fast -- but other times the staff can be super rude and make it feel like it's your fault their day isn't going well. The same inconsistency goes for their lattes: sometimes they're perfect, and other times they just taste like milk. That said, their food and pastries are always a solid 10/10. No matter what, you can always count on those to be amazing.

What a great store. Tasty Kringle, super service and fun ambience. The prices aren't what they used to be, but you get what you pay for, right? Love that you can get a travel box for 2+ Kringle.

It was amazing ! Love all the flavors and we tried several Fresh delicious and great item to take as a gift when traveling

What a cool business and such delicious pastries! My first introduction to the Danish cringle is what they sell at. Trader Joe's, but this place is so much better! They had a section with shelves full of different flavors of cringles, and their main counter area had a bunch of different desserts and pastry items for sale. They also have a refrigerated section full of various baked goods that you can bake at home as well as some food items. It is very popular place so I would recommend getting there early. You can't go wrong with any of their pastry items! I highly recommend their blueberry Kringle!

So disappointed in the quality of O & H. It continues to go down hill the larger the business gets. The OG O & H was great. Gone is the traditional flakey crust for Kringle and pastries. Came to town to visit family and they had 2 O & H Kringle waiting for us (almond and cherry). First time ever we threw out part of a Kringle. The dough was thick and way too much frosting. A week late later we purchased Seven Sisters and donuts. Also disappointed in those. Again the pastries were thick and not flakey and the thick frosting on the Seven Sisters took away from the flavor. Sad that visitors no longer get the delicious flakey Kringle of days past.

Couldn't wait to go to this flagship store. It's pretty much like the other on Douglas Avenue with made to order sandwiches and bakery selections, as well as other goods must be a good tourist spot as people were outside taking pictures. The eclairs are the best I've ever had as well as other bakery items. Very fresh and quality ingredients

Hello folks. I am writing this review because I want all of you to know that taking a trip to O&H bakery is definitely worth the trip I strongly recommend the location on Washington Avenue is the best one although they do have other locations but they are a little smaller than the one on Washington Avenue bigger store means more choices for you to take home with you. The store is very clean and full of goodies for you to take home. The bakery is top-notch and of course, including the Kringle, which Racine, is most famous for. This family's been around for years since the 70s or even more, so they definitely know how to do the bakery right for you. The service is pretty darn good no complaints there and of course you have to take a number but their staff is pretty quick and flight to get you what you need and get you out of there ASAP. So people I know you have that sweet tooth just like I do, so I definitely recommend going to this place on Washington Avenue but they do have other locations. They're just not as big as this main location on Washington Avenue. Thank you, take care, and enjoy! God bless.

We do love the O&H Kringles especially the almond flavor but we usually get them at Trader Joes when they carry them around some of the holidays. I suppose if we lived closer to Racine we might stop at an actual O&H though the prices here were at least $2 more than at Trader Joes! I could not believe the price when they rang up at $11each! At this location there were plenty of other sweet treats including some tempting donuts but we passed on those given we had two Kringles in hand. Five stars for the tasty Kringle and three stars for the price equals a four!

This was one of the best things I've ever had! Living in Chicago, I'm quite surprised that I've never heard of this place before. Also surprised I've never heard of the Kringle. I was introduced to this by coworkers in Milwaukee. I read reviews and I agree, it's worth the trip to go get some Kringles. Can't wait to go back. One of the few places that gets a 5 star from me. If you love desserts, you will not be disappointed.

I bought a fresh bear claw today and the recipe has changed. It was good, but not amazing like the old recipe.

Looking for a fresh bakery, this is your place! We stop for fresh bread or desserts. Also enjoy their lunch menu. A few tables to eat inside. Great service!

Stopped in during a weekend trip to the area to get danish to take home. Flavor variety on a Sunday morning was lacking - there were mostly just almond and cherry available. I was able to find the last pecan as well. The Kringle itself was delicious! They offer shipping/traveling boxes that fit 3 Kringle inside but they cost $2. The donuts looked good and they had some cute gift type items as well. Checkout was quick.

Delicious food, delightful atmosphere and super friendly staff! Went in for Kringle and discovered a ton more treats that would be sure to put a smile on anyones faces.

They have a good product, but their online ordering system is the worst. Placed a delivery date for next week and it shipped today anyways. Ordered for a party next week and now I'll have to throw it away.

It was a good experience. I had coffee there too, coffee they serve in this location was from Colectivo. We bought a cream cheese Kringle it was good not over the top sweet so that was good. We also bought a pastry I forgot the name of it but it was also a ring filled with custard and it had almonds on top that one was my favorite. The workers were really friendly and patience with us. We didn't really stay there to eat anything we bought it to go. We did use the restrooms and they were clean. Overall a good bakery!!

Started going to O&H recently based upon a recommendation. From the moment we walked in, the staff was genuinely friendly and welcoming. We had coffee, breakfast sandwiches and assorted danishes- all of the items were super delicious. We were going to take the order with us but the indoor seating was very nice so we stayed and enjoyed our goodies there. The store seems very clean as doe the grounds and parking outside. oh, and yes, we brought a kringle home with us for friends and they loved it so much they are now planning a trip to Racine to buy more. So glad O&H is open on Sundays too! :-)

Service great ambiance great food awful how they still in business bakery items big have no test

We have been searching for the perfect baker to supply the cupcakes for our upcoming wedding and since I love the Kringle here, I had high hopes for the cupcakes as well. While I thought they were fine, my fiancé was not impressed. The price can't be beat, $1 for a nice-sized cupcake with a light, tasty frosting. Flavors are limited as they only come in vanilla/yellow and chocolate, but sometimes too many flavors can be an issue, so I wasn't bothered by that. I found the cake portion to be moist and that sweet spot between dense and light. My fiance did not think the chocolate cupcake tasted like anything at all, like he was just eating air. I didn't agree, but it's his wedding too. Staff was friendly and there were plenty of other fun treats to consider for the future as well. Make sure you grab a number, as it can get busy pretty quick!

A Shipping delay and poor customer service options made for a disappointing experience. The expedited order arrived late, three business days after promised, with no time left to enjoy, due flights and departures. Customer service offered to refund the expedited shipping amount and offered more product. Product is no longer needed, so declined it. Expected shipping was a fail.

Danish was ordered in time for Christmas and unfortunately still has not arrived two days after. Customer service says they are not responsible for meeting their shipping timeline or providing a refund for the product.

Until today I had never heard of a Danish Kringle. The folks behind the counter (Ben!) allowed my wife and me to try one (Almond)! WOW, wow, wow!! One of the best pastries we've ever tasted! New building, great food, excellent service. OH Bakery gets my highest recommendation!

I guess I never posted a review for this place! I went to visit my cousin in Racine. She introduced me to O&H Danish Bakery and it was the first time I ever had a Kringle, and first time I ever had a Bee sting. Sadly I live 11+ hours from Racine, so I can't eat at this bakery every days. It was soo incredible, we don't have things like this in Oklahoma. I wanted to set up camp inside the store and live there. I didn't have enough stomachs to try everything. The Bee sting was maybe the best desert I have ever had in my life and I was told they are seasonal? They should be on the menu every day but also they shouldn't for people like me who would buy one Every day and gain 200 lbs hahaha! Kringles are INCREDIBLE. I really enjoyed the fruit one we had, but wasn't a fan of the desert one so I think I would stick with the fruit ones! I can't wait to visit again!

Can't go wrong with any of the kringles. Nice selection of cookies, donuts, and other miscellaneous bakery needs.

O&H is widely known for its signature danish Kringle. Why? Because it's frick'n delicious! Their Kringle is sure to be a hit for any family event, friend gathering, or pairing with your Sunday morning coffee sesh. The O&H bakery offers several different flagship flavors to choose from such as Almond, cherry, raspberry, cream cheesecake, or pecan. They even offer a variety of specialty and seasonal flavors such as key lime, red white & blue, s'mores, and turtle. It's interesting to learn that O&H has been around since the late 1940s and, with the bakery operations now passed on to its 4th generation, a bit surprising that the consistency of their products seems so solid. It's also fascinating to learn that their baking techniques and recipes still mirror that of Old Denmark, weaving past tradition and culture with modern production and distribution. A fun fact I learned is that O&H does a Win a Kringle Contest. Just visit their website and enter to win! Another fact I learned is that their bakery is Kosher and endorsed by the Chicago Rabbinical Council. Just look for the CRC symbol, where possible. In addition to their Kringle, O&H offers donuts, cakes, Danish pecan sticky buns, eclairs, breads, sandwiches, and more! They also offering product shipping as well as customized/decorated cakes and specialty orders. All in all, a pretty neat local offering to check out!

Amazing kringle!!! So many flavors offered...worth the drive from IL. I'd drive up again :)

I have been eating Kringles since 1967, when i was given my first bite in Racine. since then i have joined the kringle of the month for my father in fla. My brother in Ca. get their xmas present and sister in law in Co. Then my nabors in Fla. nearly 60 years of eating kringles and they never get old.

This iconic bakery is famous for their Kringle but their donuts, breads and lunch items are fantastic too! The variety and quality are quite impressive. On my visit, I had a Long John with white icing and my sister had a Lemon Custard donut. We loved them both! Our lattes were creamy good and piping hot. We bought 3 Kringles also. My sister bought almond and I bought raspberry and cinnamon to bring back to Chicago. I was surprised at the fun varieties they offered such as Birthday Cake and Father's Day flavor. The gift shop portion is great. They have a ton of cute things for yourself or as a gift for others. The displays are arranged to make it easy to shop. The staff was super nice and helpful. They were all smiles and very pleasant. Great staff always makes the experience better. Inside the store, it was clean and tidy. Hand sanitizer was readily available. We sat outside in a shaded area where they had Jimmy Buffet and Bob Marley playing through outdoor speakers. What a fantastic experience. I can't wait to return on my next visit to Kenosha or Racine.

It's a great bakery in Racine that's hard to ignore!! Whenever I go places and meet new people I try to bring a Kringle with and they absolutely enjoy it!

Ordered a kringle as a gift via mail order and UPS lost it. O&H offered to resend or credit. I thought I should get a discount on a future order... disappointing they didn't do more to correct the problem.

They have good donuts. The locations are always clean and friendly. Being from Florida, this is very authentic go to spot every time you are in Wisconsin!

First off, the Kringles are really delicious. Have ordered over $800 worth since first trying. Sent as gifts and of course some for myself (also buy from TJ's @$10). My issue, though it seems petty, is that I bought a year's subscription for my brother in Florida, a different Kringle each month and paid in full at order time. It's June and reviewing my CC online I see a charge from O&H and when I question it via email it's for a fuel surcharge. Not much ($1.25). More of a real annoyance but really though it was petty, especially after I paid in advance for the full year. Replied to the email from O&H saying thought it was petty, but no reply and charge went though. As I said in email the year subscription was over $300 and simple interest on that money more than covers the $ amount and annoyance this causes. Can you imagine taking a flight and months later the airlines charge you again as their fuel was too costly? That's my rant.
