Review from Darren W.

Why oh why did we put off coming to Cafe Kolache for so long? This Saturday afternoon, for the first time ever, I officially munched on the Czech delicacy known as Kolache.
A kolache is simply a roll filled with whatever your heart desires. Most of us have had something similar. For instance, who hasn't had a pepperoni roll?
But have you had it in such a gentle roll made of such a gently sweetened yeast dough before? The kolache is so soft, you feel as if you're holding a living creature, fearing that it will cry out in agony when you chow down on it.
I ordered mine filled with Buffalo Chicken (they were running low on everything being that we came by in mid-afternoon during one of Beaver's frequent street fairs) and would have been way more than content to have anything else.
That was until I saw that there be chili on that there chalkboard menu!
This was done Texas-style, meaning that there were no beans, which is how I prefer it, and was served in a colossal mug. Topped with shredded cheddar and minced green chiles, it was just the right balance between sweet and spicy, neither overpowering the other while asteroids of a most luscious ground beef floated about the broth. I never thought some of the very best chili ever conceived would be prepared at a Czechoslovakian eatery.
I didn't try any of the dessert kolaches due to being wooed away by their UFO-sized chocolate chunk cookies which tasted ALMOST as good as they looked in the glass jar they were pulled from.
Cafe Kolache is trendy, ethnic, fun, fast, and egregiously affordable. My cup of chili and kolache were each under $5. Breakfast, traditional, and dessert kolaches are generally between $1.29 and $1.54. Lunch kolaches are between $4.65 and $4.79. The "meal" kolaches are big enough to fill a grown man, so you will eat well and cheaply here. CK is yet another jewel of Beaver's vibrant Third Street business district.
P.S. CK caters and kolache can be ordered by the dozen.

Stopped for coffee on my trip there, a great alternative to the chain shops in town. Great coffee, friendly, intimate. I hear they have great events, too.

Great atmosphere. I wish I had the time to hang out. I've used the back room for business meetings, but haven't got the chance to try the wireless Internet connection. My favorite item is the cranberry and walnut salad. You do pay for the ambiance, but it's well worth it. The staff is always friendly and really make this a cool little spot to chill.
