Bohemian Cafe

Yummy kolaches and very friendly staff. We split the sausage and cheese, cream cheese, and strawberry ones. While the strawberry one was good, I would definitely go for the sausage and cheese or cream cheese next time.
So glad to have this addition to Lowest Greenville!

Had the blackberry kolace, eggs Benedict and coffee. $ 10 w tip. Eggs Benedict was perfect. Would like more sauce and a side ofpotatoes

It is a cool little place. I like the look and the feel of it. The Kolaches looked great. I ordered a sausage, a pizza and an apple kolache. The bread is sweet and tastes great. The one disappointment was the portion of meat in the Klobasneks. I’m very familiar with other places in West Texas, LaGrange, Austin and other places and I’ve never encountered such a small sausage (That’s what she said!).
Overall, I’ll come back for the bread, but lament over the lack of filling.

The word «Bohemian» surprisingly flashed out at me, as I walked down Greenville Avenue, conjuring up a state in Czechoslovakia I dearly associate with my maternal side — green rolling hills, smiling family and beer. My heart strings were pulled.
Glancing inside I saw a kolache case and interior decorations resembling what you might see in Prague — old wood tables mixed with bright colors.
«I wonder if they have garlic soup.» I craved.
Inside there was a stage set up for music with an accordion, ready for polka.
An acoustic guitar and a portrait of Willy Nelson hung overhead.
The kolaches looked of a larger style that wasn’t my style. Although there are many different forms of this Czech pastry which is essentially a Danish. I’ve had some bad ones in Czech Republic for sure.
«I love the place.» I told the owner. His eyes had that familiar bright ice blue gleam and readiness for a long easy happy conversation.
«That’s what Czech people are like.» I told my friend — polite, friendly and open.
At least the ones that escaped the jaws of the iron curtain.
«I like the mix of old and new.» I told the owner.
«I was just thinking of my grandmothers kitchen.» He said with a gentle smile.
An old stove and antique tables house napkins, condiments and other dining aid items. The wall was covered in antique photographs and mirrors while the walls have jarring frog green and primary blue accents — an Eastern European totally out of the loop aesthetic.
«We tried garlic soup but it didn’t sell.» He said.
The menu displayed on a new big screen TV while aloof hipsters prepared my espresso in a homey china tea cup. I’ll embrace this place as a coffee shop and try to special order some garlic soup one day. The food looked like it might be mainstreamed and not my thing — but I’ll come back for samples.
Breakfast, salads, soups like chicken and dumpling and onion, as well as meat filled pastries round out the Czech-​text experience. The had a turkey and cranberry klobanesk offered over thanksgiving. How cute.
Look for a second location in the farmers market appropriately next to a butcher at shed #2 opening up this April.

Bohemian Café is totally unique, totally delicious, and totally affordable. Upon entering the café, my friend and I were overwhelmed by the amount of choices. We decided that the best thing to do was order four different items and share all of them so we could taste as many as possible. We had: chicken and waffles, monte chezch-​O, veggie pizza, and spinach feta. And that is the order I ranked the taste.
The chicken and waffles was unbelievably good. The dough is very sweet, almost like a Hawaiian roll, and I am pretty sure there was some bacon hiding in there along with the chicken.
I saved the monte chezch-​O for last because it was like eating dessert. Seriously, there is no need for dessert if you go for this one.
The veggie pizza and spinach feta were good, but they were about what you would expect from the description.
The décor of Bohemian Café really sets it apart. The furniture looks like something out of a country house from long ago, but it’s done is a very creative way that makes it feel fun. The band wasn’t playing during lunch, but there is a stage with a piano next to it so I would like to go back when there is some live music.
The guy and gal behind the counter were super nice and patiently explained all of the different varieties to us. And the best part, two of us ate lunch for less than $ 20.

«I’m feeling so bohemian like you… yeah I like you, YEAH I LIKE YOU»!
I don’t know what an authentic kolache is supposed to taste like. I’m not even very fond of the ones glorified in West, TX; but I sure as heck know what tastes good. Let me tell you, their kolaches taste GOOD!
This is a small shop in the corner of Alta and Greenville. They have outdoor seating and a small stage inside for live music (check out their FB page for the schedule.) They don’t only serve kolache! There are breakfast items, salads and soups, but ain’t got time for that.
As far as the regular sausage ones, it’s tons of bread with a split sausage in the middle. Although tough, the sausage had plenty of juice running out of it with each bite. The bread isn’t too bad either and has a hint of sweetness with a chewy texture. There’s a lot of bread for you bread lovers!
The real stars are the non-​traditional spinoff flavors. I was bewildered when I was told the bread mound topped with raspberry jelly was a Monte Czecho. Uhh… say what?! She then told me it was a Monte Cristo kolache and with wide eyes I ordered two of them! Inside is turkey, ham and Swiss which are wonderful flavors on its own anyway. Combined with warm bread, raspberry and powdered sugar made it even better!
The Czechon Bleu is my second favorite kolach which is chicken wrapped inside meat with cheese. It’s the same chicken used in the Chicken and Waffles Kolach that is lightly drizzled with syrup. Order these warm of course if dining in. I love the inventive flavors here, oh but there’s more…
Now, they have different toppings/​fillings for the pizza inspired kolache like margherita, veggie and feta. I’m sure any of them would be amazing just like the pepperoni one. Do you like Hot Pockets? I like Hot Pockets. These pizza kolache are the Hot Pockets the man from above wanted us to have. Get one!
They all roughly cost $ 3.50 each so it’s not like the donut shop down the street. This place is much more than that though. With Willie Nelson looking over the shop and warm delicious stuffed bread, I sense many returns in my future.

Czech bakery and hot doggery serving kolaches, hot dogs, kielbasa, fries, and beanless chili. It is a small cute little shop with friendly staff that is next door to Shivas Bar & Grill. I’m not big on kolaches. Really got to be in the mood for them and I usually do them as a quick grab and go for breakfast. I stopped in here just for the hot dog. They have no menu, paper or board wise. They have kolaches on display in the case, but, nothing is labeled or priced. You can pretty much figure out what the fruit ones are, but, the stuffed ones are a mystery.
I asked the girl at the register for a menu and she points to her head and says: «It’s up here». Ok that really doesn’t help the customer out. I then asked for some literature and was told they didn’t have any. Not having a menu or prices posted causes for a whole lot of interaction with the staff. Unnecessary conversation that I just wasn’t in the mood for. So much effort to order a hot dog with mustard and onion. She gave me the option of grilled or raw on the onion and regular or spicy mustard that is made in house. I went for raw and spicy.
Before I ordered I was careful to inquire as to the cooking technique of the wiener. I was told that it was mostly boiled then placed on the grill. I went for it anyway. The hot dog was a complete fail. Soooo disappointing. The hot dog was literally 95% bread and 5% disappointing wiener. There was no spice to the mustard and the bread was serious overkill. Way to dry and chewy. I took one bite and pushed it aside. I have no desire to return.
I gave them an extra star because they were nice when I took one of the street Zombies in and ordered her a chili dog. As I was sitting outside waiting on my food a street Zombie approached me and actually asked if I could buy her a taco or something. Of course I said yes, and, I asked if she’d like a hot dog. She said yes and I escorted her into the store. They were nice and not disrespectful. Chili dog cost me $ 5.14. Zombie left and told me that they were gonna hold it for her. I think I tripped up the Zombie by actually buying her food instead of handing her money.
