HOUSTON – In case you haven’t heard, let me be the one to introduce you to the only road trip your kolache-loving heart will ever need.
These aren’t just your everyday “kolaches” with sausage and cheese. No, these places give you an authentic taste of what a kolache really is.
According to Czech heritage, a traditional kolache is a sweet, yeast-dough pastry that is usually filled with a fruit jam. These Texas spots are serving them up the way it should be done.

To San Antonians, getting good kolaches means a road trip, and likely cruising up Interstate 35 to the famous Czech Stop in the town of West. Fortunately, one new San Antonio business is saving us the drive.
Bexar Kolaches opened a small retail shop near Olmos Park at the intersection of East Hildebrand and McCullough avenues in mid-January. They’re well-stocked on traditional Czech-style kolaches and klobasneks. The former is a sweet pastry of dough filled with fruit, and the latter is a more savory snack of sausage and other fillings wrapped in the same dough as a kolaches, although they’re often both referred to as “kolaches” in Texas.
