3/30/24: a friend had given us some bread from Balkan and we decided to check it out for ourselves this particular Saturday morning. What a great place. It's an unassuming storefront, but the second you walk in it's heavenly. There is plenty of parking and there is a myriad of items to curb your cravings. Aside from the baked goods, they have a small store with miscellaneous items. We didn't look too closely at them as our eyes gravitated to their breads, desserts, and other items in the display case.The lady behind the counter was super sweet and she explained to us about how the Figaro treat was named after the opera; that way back when, because operas were so long, during intermission, small treats (packed with sugar were sold to help the audience stay awake for the next half of the show.We ended up purchasing one of each dessert, a savory item, and a small drink (because the bottle was cool . I cannot remember what the hot savory item was called but hey, pastry and cheese, what more do you need? : For all of that, it only came to $29. Balkan Bakery is 22 miles from our house so it won't be a weekly visit for us, but we will definitely return we must try more of their baked breads.

Unbelievable food! Oh my god first time here their food is

Fabulous! The food is exceptional and the staff are warm, welcoming and helpful! It was a highlight of our visit. The goulash was amazing, as was the veal soup and salad. The deserts are wonderful too. Can’t recommend it more!
