Old German Bakery

My partner ordered a Black Forest cake for my birthday. I was very excited, and when I picked it up the owner was very insistent that this was a cake for family and close loved ones, not something to give away to anyone. I am so glad I listened to him and chose not to bring it to my birthday party. This is the best cake we have ever had, bar none. It is decadent but light, the chocolate used is the perfect amount of bitter to compliment the cherry and mousse fillings, and the kirsch soaked cherries are heaven. This cake is well worth the price, many times over! (The Mothman was our addition).

Even though we moved from the area we still stop by every time we can. Delicious pastries and cakes--the quark turnover is my absolute favorite. And the owner is am amazing guy!

Absolutely love the tomato pastry - it's my go to anytime I walk by and it's not a Monday. It's a flaky pastry pocket with tomato sauce and olive flavor. In the past there had been a more Parmesan heavy version which I miss. But this savory one still hits the spot. Also used to be some indoor seating but I get that the pandemic has changed things. Now it's stand outside the building which is still very charming. There's all sorts of other sweet treats, also a fan of the chocolate pastries. Absolutely worth a visit.

This place has been open only with a cart in front of the actual bakery for at least past couple years I think. Not sure why they don’t accomodate customers into their bakery. Because it’s been only with a cart, I haven’t been curious enough to try out but grabbed couple of those pastries recently. Pastry parts overall felt crunchy, thin, and little bit dry. Pastry itself was neither yay nor nay for me. I just imagined that’s how german style pastry is. I liked the flavor of savory tomato one but not so much for raspberry sweet cheese one. Latter had very subtle flavor of anything, so it wasn’t exactly spot on to my palate.

Simply love the place. A no frills, easy on pocket bakery serving the best authentic Germany desserts and bakery items. Family owned and operated and serving the fresh right out of oven. A must visit if you are in the neighborhood.

One of the best cakes I have ever had. We trusted the bakery with 4 whole Black Forrest cakes - everyone loved it !

Go on Sunday and take advantage of the awesome street side bakery cart. Tons of traditional german breakfast baked good to choose from, hot and fresh. Bread orders as well

I had an unexpected experience. I visited a place with a companion and two young children. We were examining the food options, which appeared very appetizing and traditional. I expressed my appreciation for the food items. We are both from Germany and were discussing the possible fillings for the pastries. The woman at the counter was also German and eventually intervened to correct our assumptions about the fillings in German, rolling her eyes and clearly expressing her displeasure. I ultimately decided not to buy anything because of the attendant's behavior. I informed the woman politely that her attitude was somewhat unpleasant and disappointing, despite the fact that her food looked delicious. She responded that you receive what you give. I am unsure why she felt that way. To be honest, I was taken aback.
