i have made the trip down south 35 hundreds of times... and i am not ashamed to admit that a few of those have been taken just to satisfy my craving for a kolache!
there are 2 sides to the czech stop... on the right is the bakery side and to the left is the gas station side. i suggest the left side because there are still all of the selections of kolaches as well as beverages, snacks and other normal gas station knick knacks. (trucker hats,sunglasses, wind chimes, mugs, paper weights, t-shirts). the variety doesn't stop there! you can grab anything from burritos to deviled eggs to cookies sandwiches stuffed with frosting.
there is a huge kolache selection to choose from- sweet and savory. and yes, i am the girl that can never make up my mind! pizza kolaches, ham and cheese kolaches, mixed berry cream cheese kolaches- they are all great, soft bread and tasty fillings- and pretty cheap!
this is a must stop... if you are driving on 35, take the 353 exit and go to the czech stop/ shell gas station. you will leave with handy treats to eat all the way to your destination!
Well, I've run by the Czech Stop a few more times since my original post and, one of the biggest gripes I had about this place (the bathroom) seems to have been fixed--kind of.
You see, the place is a little confusing because it's, essentially, two different shops in the same building. If you want the bakery AND the convenience store, go to the left. If you just want the bakery, go to the right.
As such, they also have separate bathrooms. The ones on the bakery-only side appear to be fairly new and very clean--and I highly recommend them. The bathrooms on the convenience store side, which likely receives 90% more people, still has some of my least favorite bathrooms on the road.

I frequently drive to the Dallas/Ft. Worth Metroplex from Austin for work, and have an extremely… Read more »
On the Austin-Dallas trek, Exit 353 is the best reason to blow past the Subway/McDonalds/Sonic chains in Waco and get some unbelievable kolaches.
The jalapeno sausage/cheddar kolache is my favorite. If it's an early morning trip, I'm a big fan of their breakfast sausage kolache.
The only problem with this place is that any future kolache will pale in comparison and you'll say, "well, it's not as good as Czech Stop."
I don't know what more I can say about the Czech stop that has not already been said. Every time I drive back to San Antonio I stop here with the best intentions of coming home with fresh kolaches for the family. Sadly, they never make it there. I end up having to stuff the paper bag under my seat and wipe the crumbs off my face so no one will know I just inhaled a massive amount of pastry over the course of a five hour drive! It's just so hard to not eat them though.
Fair warning though...if you get one of the savory kolaches make sure you don't eat them while anyone else is in the car with you. They are pretty cheesey and you will probably have to crack a window!!!
On the way to Dallas from Austin, you must take exit 353! This place have the best freakin' kolaches ever!
For a meat kolache, I definitely enjoyed the jalapeno sausage and cheddar kolache the most. As for sweet, their strawberry cream cheese kolache tasted to me like a strawberry cheesecake and was absolutely delicious! I also tried the apricot cream cheese and berry one as well which was great too. I don't think any kolache can compare to the ones hear, which might have ruined kolaches for me now, but it was sooooo worth it!
Fruit and cream cheese kolaches from this place = diet out the window. Ughh.. I've been so good this week too. Well if I'm going to carb out, this is definitely the way to do it.
I am in love with their very berry and strawberry filled kolaches. My best friend brought me home some kolaches from there today. Yey! They were a day old by the time they got to me but they were still darn delicious. I just nuked them for a few seconds before devouring them.
Andrew said their breakfast sausage kicked serious ass (He ate all of them by the time he made it over to my place so I couldn't try them. grrrr!)
Just a random note:
I've had their jalapeno sausage rolls before and I remembered burping up sausage breath while driving down i-35. (Not really sexy I know- so if you're driving with a significant other.. be sure they're eating the same thing ^_^)
This place is worth stopping by. Come and stretch out your legs and fill up your belly.
I guess with this may reviews you don't need me to re-explain the whole process. i will just say YUMMY kolaches - both sweet and savory types are good! I also had a few cookies which where all good! They have tons of drink choices including a fountain drink station. Perfect place to stop, use the restroom, and reload! I will stop EVERY time I pass!!
Only complaint is they are always busy so it can set your trip back by sometimes 20 minutes!
You've been sitting in your car for over an hour trying not to think of flushing meadows, waterfalls, and raindrops. A whole liter of water you drank earlier isn't looking like a great idea anymore. Much like Woody's in Centerville, TX on I-45, I cannot count the number of times Czech Stop has saved my bladder from exploding. 5 stars just for that.
Czech Stop is so much more. After one organ is emptied, another is ready to be filled up. Fabulous fruit kolaches and hot meat & cheese kolaches call your name from behind the glass counter. Whether you want a sweet escape or a salty snack, Czech Stop offers a myriad of things that will rot your teeth and hurt your health. You have another 1.5 hour of driving to get to Austin or Dallas, so you might as well indulge yourself.
The place is fairly clean for a rest-stop. Gas prices are comparable to surrounding areas.
This place has been Texan secret for as long as I've been alive. It is bar-none the best kolache and bread bakery in the state, and if you don't stop by here at least once in your life you can't call yourself a TRUE Texan. Everything from this gas station stop off I-35 is the best version of that pastry you'll ever eat. Don't fall for imitators nearby; the Shell station with the wooden facade is the place to be!
There is an absolute truth that comes into play when driving from Dallas to Austin and parts south. The truth is that you must visit the Czech Stop either going to Austin, coming from Austin or stopping both going to or coming from.
It is a little shop but packed with caloric goodness from local sausages and home baked breads to the wonders that are kolaches. The kolaches are always the big draw but take a minute and look at the breads and meats here. I bought 2 of every fruit kolache they had (to split with my parental units) but also got an awesome loaf of jalapeno cheese bread and a moist loaf of cottage cheese dill bread. Just to have a sandwich on toasted jalapeno cheese bread? Heaven! They will slice the loaves for you, too.
Since it was around lunchtime, I got a lean roast beef sandwich with swiss cheese on homemade sweet white bread with horseradish...delish! My driver got 2 sausage kolaches so we were set for the rest of the drive home.
I will say this place was PACKED to the gills with people, young and old and it could have been a bummer to shop, but the fine folks at the Czech Stop have it down to a science. Getting through the line took no time at all and I still managed to get exactly what I wanted and didn't feel rushed at all. In and out in a matter of minutes with a $39.00 bag of goodies which are now in my freezer. Thank God for Czech Stop!
Best bakery in Texas to my knowledge...
The best meat Kolache in my opinion is the "Breakfast Sausage" one. We've tried most the others, and while good, they aren't as good as the Breakfast Sausage in our opinion.
The fruit & creamcheese filled ones we tried are all good. Blueberry, Lemon (my favorite) and strawberry.
This place is a landmark to those making the trip to Dallas from Austin or visa versa, and always has customers.
If you want your food hot, be sure to ask them to heat it up.
Exit 353. Yup the place to stop when you are driving to from the Dallas metroplex from the to or from Waco/Austin/San Antonio/Laredo. The kolaches are the best around in both sweet and savory varieties. Plus they have sandwiches and wraps that are made fresh daily.
The bakery has many different varieties of breads that are made there daily and prebagged for cash and carry.
There is also an extensive standard convenience store and clean bathrooms as well.
When you are traveling along the interstate, fast food is generally your only option. This does it better and cheaper,
Okay, Czech Stop still gets 4 stars from me despite the second-time-in-a-row stale tasting kolaches I got last Thursday. On both this visit and my last, the kolaches were stiff and on the verge of stale, but while my last visit was rather late in the day, my most recent visit was at 9:00 AM. The kolaches were just as stiff, so I have to believe that's just the way they make them. I'll admit it's not my favorite type of pastry dough. It seems different from most kolaches in that it is a bit yellowish, so I can only assume they use an enriched egg dough, with a slightly sour flavor similar to a pre-packaged "Honey-Bun", which is a pastry I've never liked. Combined with the straight-out-of-a-can flavor of the fruit fillings they use, the kolaches end up getting 3 stars this time--I'd probably grab ONE next time I pass through, but I'm never going to buy a dozen again.
HOWEVER, they offer one of the most amazing pastries I've ever found, something so perfect in its conception that I have to rate it 5 stars. It had a "new item" sign on it, and it was so new that it wasn't labeled. I saw what I thought must be bacon crumbles on top of a glazed pastry, and I was right. It is called a Maple Bacon Twist, and it is like a baked cinnamon twist, but with crispy bacon crumbled INSIDE the twist along with the cinnamon sugar, and also on top of the maple glaze. While most cinnamon twists are fried, these are baked bunched up against each other in a pan like biscuits. The dough seems to be the same that they use for the kolaches, so it had a bit of the unpleasant sour Honey-Bun flavor I mentioned earlier, but the bacon and maple flavor were so strong that they did a good job of disguising that. I hope this item is a hit so they will continue to offer it, because I will stop and get one every time I'm in town!
I wish I knew how long they'd been serving this item, because I got the first one served out of the entire large sheet pan they had on display, and I was just thinking how cool it would be if I got the first one they ever served.

I used to think that Czech Stop had the best kolaches in Texas, until I tried the ones at Weikel's… Read more »
It is almost a requirement for any true Texan to stop here and fill up. Gas and self. The first time I went to this place the kolaches were about 35 cents (early 1990s) and we used to buy bags of the stuff. Talk about your gut buster, but it served the purpose of giving you fuel to get you to Dallas or Austin, depending on your direction of travel. My favorites are the ham with jalapeno.
I love love love the Czech Stop! Each time I think about it I instantly crave kolaches. My family is from Hilsboro, so as a child, each time my mother and I would drive in to town, we'd stop and get a few. The only true place I know to get them IS the Czech Stop. Where else to get them then West, TX... It's Czech country!
Went back... again....after the 4th in Austin....
Yea...the Kolaches are good... but have you tried......get ready for it.....
Peanut butter chocolate cupcake?
It would set you back about $2.50... and rivals Sprinkles and all those other cupcake/bakery places. It was moist...and had enough sugary goodness to keep me awake the rest of the way to Dallas. And as soon as I got home I crashed.....kaboom!

Best Dish: Czech Stop "hots" with Cheese
For those who make the drive from Dallas to Austin and Austin to Dallas, this is a must stop because it is located near the midway point. The kolaches are extremely tasty, especially if you get them heated. The best thing about Czech Stop is the Shell gas station that is connected with it does not hike up the gas prices so you can hit two birds with one stone.
From the road, this may appear a mere convenience store, but once inside the marvelous truth is revealed. The Greeks had their ambrosia. The Israelites had their manna. I had my Kolaches.
I binged on these little suckers till my seams burst. But I had no regrets... our relationship was meant to be.
So the gf is moving to Houston in a month to work full time at the Czech Center Museum. The name strikes me as being odd, since it feel like it should be The Czech Center or the Czech Museum. Anyways, this has opened the flood of door of puns. I'll spare you the horror's she's had to go through with me, but to suffice to say she's a little more than peeved after weeks of the same. Since there's no real kolache place here in Austin we decided to czech out ( see! its easy!) the Czech stop.
We bought almost one of every kolache from sweet to savory and spent about twenty dollars. All of them were fantastic and made the rest of the drive home a very tasty, but heavy ride home. Also, don't be afraid to try the prune kolaches as they were one of the best. Beware though, they no longer accept czechs as a form of payment.
Kolaches!!!
and other stuff llike that cinnamon candy they make...
But mostly Kolaches!!!
Roast beef puff with cheese...? Meh. Not so much.
Cherry kolache with cream cheese? Heaven.
I wish I didn't care about my waist line so much. This place is a little slice of heaven.
This place is OLF (original local flavor [50% ashamed for writing that just now])
When I was in the Czech Republic I couldn't stop myself from making all the "Czech" = "check" jokes I could pack into my trip.
Czech it out.
Is this where I Czech in? (wink wink jab)
Czech that off the list!
Czech, please!
Etc etc etc until I took my final, mournful bow and crossed over into Dresden and adulthood out of the good Czech people's lives forever.
(Body Czech)
So imagine my delight stopping at the Czech stop off I-35 in the lil Czech corridor of west, TX.
Are you imagining my delight? Well, Czech this out: THE WHOLE TIME I WAS IN CZECH STOP I MADE NO CZECH JOKES, NOR DID ANY OF THE CUSTOMERS (as far as I know). We all acted like very adult grown ups. I browsed the pastries and selected ONE very reasonable looking éclair and ONE very mature coffee and stepped out of the sweet smelling cloud of Czech stop into the cold gray of this new, jokeless phase of existential crisis.
The éclair was good, I mean, it wasn't like Maurice's. The coffee hurt my tummy but all of the pastries were really pretty and looked like something someone who likes eastern European pastries and bready things would be bout it bout it...I'm more of a sausage and gherkin kinda gal...so I can't judge this.
The point is: it is very important these places exist. Plan your trips around places like this. They will save America. When was the last time a Shell station charmed you? The delicacy of American culture is growing...Czech stop must remain a STRONG LITTLE BAKERY!
Do not.. I repeat DO NOT operate a moving vehicle when biting into these tasty m-ffers! Holy Kolache these bad boys are good! I have passed this place probably 50 or 60 times. It's pretty much famous for having the tastiest kolaches in the land. For good reason.
On my way back from Austin, I hopped into the shop to score me some goods. There were about ten nice employees working behind the counter. I get a feeling this place is always busy! For good reason. I took a while deciding what flavor I wanted to try. Options include sausage with cheese, jalapeno sausage with cheese, and about 50 more flavors. They also offer fruit kolaches stuffed with blueberry, strawberry or apricot cream cheese. Basically, I would be a big heffer if I lived in West.
I decided on an interesting choice--the sauerkraut, Swiss cheese and sausage. It must be the German in me. I also scooped up a sausage and cheese and a blueberry muffin (for It's Not A Date! Muffin-lurvin' man). I'll let you know what his taste buds think.
I could not wait to rip open that warm bag of hotness. My mouth watered as I bit into the soft sesame seed bread while my car swerved into another lane. (See sentence number 1) The krout was hot and steaming, while the cheese was just the right amount and the sausage flavored well. The German in me had me dancing around to the accordion music playing in my head.
Trust me on this one. If you are ever on I-35 near West, exit. EXIT!
This place is amazing!!! I have to stop here every time I'm going to visit family in Austin. You simply cannot drive past it! The gas station here also usually has cheaper gas.
I LOVE the fruit kolaches. The blueberry ones are my favorite. They also have some oh sooo good bread. If they have their beer bread out you have to get some. I can't say enough about this place!
So yeah if you are ever on a road trip stop here and fill up your car and you!!!
This place is as good as everyone says. It's always good to have quality pit stops on long drives such as Dallas to Austin/SA, but this goes beyond. I purposely don't go to the bathroom before we leave so I'll have to go oh, say, around West, TX.
I'm big on the fruit kolaches, my guy is big on the meat ones. Tuna and egg salad sandwiches are good too. OK, they're all good, AND you can buy all kinds of other stuff to go, like fresh baked breads. And if you for some reason need some college memorabilia, they've got lots from Texas schools.
I am already making a mental list of the things I want to get when I go home for Christmas next month :)
look, i don't give out many five star ratings....
czech stop fits the bill. a lot of donut places in dallas advertise on their window they serve kolaches. no. no they don't. this is what a real kolache is supposed to taste like.
which one is good? well, that depends on your fruit preference. i prefer the strawberry and blueberry.... you might like lemon (just threw up in my mouth).
often overlooked when standing in front of the many versions of kolaches are two things:
1. sausage jalepeno rolls. these are not your local donut shop variety either.
2. pecan rolls. oh my effing god. it appears to be a caramel substance and pecans in the bottom of roll. how could something so good be so simple? and if someone doesn't tell you to get them (you can thank me later) you would never know.... because visually they just look like a dinner roll. nothing special.
they warm up both of those, and if you are going to eat them, eat them warm (as opposed to the real fruit kolaches). if you can't eat them right then, wait til you get home and throw them in the microwave.
5 stars and is a required stop on the way back from austin.
5 Stars!!!!!!! This little bakery, that I would otherwise have passed by with ought a glance had it not been for the 50 sim-odd cars surrounding it, is one of the best bakeries I have ever found.
Right off the highway, The Czech stop is truly a great place to visit; hell, its even worth going all the way from Dallas/Austin to visit! The pastries and little...somethings? (meat filled rolls, I don't know the name)....are simply amazing, a real delight to eat. I had a spicy sausage something with cheese in it, and oh wow! The roll was so soft with ought that raw dough taste, and the sausage was scrumptious. After thous little num nums, I had a terrific blueberry somethingB (name eludes me), which was so soft, I felt like I was eating a slushy (hardness) with ought that flavor or the cold. =D
Tips: If you see it, go to it. Its kinda in the middle of nowhere so try and stop by if you can, otherwise its at least an hours drive from any big city. Final tip: Get as much as you can carry, than pay the guy next to you to help carry more!
We stopped here on the way back from Austin and got some blueberry-cream cheese kolaches. Also got some keilbasa sausage and jalepeno links that will go on the grill sometime soon.
I wish I was in on this money-printing-machine. Long after all the oil is drained from beneath Texas, people will be lining up for these things. Czech Stop is the true "Texas Stop Sign", sorry DQ.
Honey bears! Honey bears! Honey bears! Eat'em from the bottom up and save the red hot candy eyes for last!! Sigh. I miss the days that my gf went through West regularly for work and would bring me back my bears!
It's a must stop anytime we are headed to Austin. We grab a box of mixed pastries for our vegetarian hosts... and some kolaches for us carnivores! It's like carb overload in there! Every single thing I've ever had from Czech Stop has been fabulous. Hmm... I am thinking it's time to go visit my Austin peeps, just so I can stop by!
So, a few days ago, the BF and I went on a spur-of-the-moment road trip to San Antonio and Austin. He says it was to get away for a bit; I think it was because he got tired of my non-stop bitching about Dallas and wanted to show me cooler parts of Texas. (I've tried to like Dallas, really. For a 30 year resident of Chicago, it's a big adjustment. But I'm getting there. Slowly...)
Just like I'm getting to the point of this review....the UNBELIEVABLY tasty baked pieces of bliss that this place sells. We were having the usual difficulty deciding between McDonalds and Burger King (yawn and meh, in other words) when this sign popped into view on I-35: "KOLACHES. Czech Stop. 1 mile. " Hot damn, decision made.
We got a box full of sausage and cheese kolaches, ham and cheese puffs, and various fruity goodness-filled kolaches for $12. It was enough to stuff the both of us full to the point of groaning. And we're some fat boys who can eat. (I kid. We're plump, not fat, damn it.)
Seriously, I'd drive here for breakfast daily if it wasn't 80 miles or so. I find myself hoping they'll open a Czech Stop 2 in Dallas, preferably Lakewood. I'd keep them in business all by myself. Really.
So, I made a totally amazing discovery on my last visit!
And it wasn't
1) This place is totally flipping packed all hours of the day, every day.
2) They keep raising the GD prices on all their stuff, so that a ham and cheese puff now costs $2.49. Bitches!
It's....the frozen section. Yes, they have a great selection of frozen Czech pastries in the cooler for your take-home needs. And...AND...they're at a deep discount. TWO ham and cheese puffs for $2. Less than the price of ONE hot one. I'll be damned.
So, two hot ones for the road, and two bags of two for later. And I'm in greasy, doughy heaven.

The best Czech food you will ever eat...from a gas station.
Try the Ham and Cheese Puff, and any of… Read more »
I have stopped here a couple of times and purchased a variety of kolaches for family members in Dallas. The kolaches are huge, fresh and not too sweet. This last visit besides my kolache order I followed Jill W.'s advice and ordered a ham puff to go and a couple of day old ham puffs for breakfast the next day ( half price). We got into the car started driving down the road when I unwrapped my puff and discovered I was given a breakfast burrito instead. I was mildly disappointed but I like breakfast burritos and proceeded to chow down. It was a bland concoction of egg, ham and potato wrapped in a very tasty home made tortilla. I ate about half ( it was a pretty decent size) then wrapped the rest for later.
Meanwhile, Jill W. realized she dropped her Ipod shuffle in the Czech Stop parking lot. Since we were a good distance away I called Czech Stop and the girl who answered cheerily agreed to go hunt out in the parking lot for it. It wasn't there but Jill did find it once we arrived in Dallas!
I did manage to have a ham puff for breakfast the next day and it was a heavenly, doughy, pillow of cheese and copious amounts of ham. I wish I had one right now! yum yum yum
oh yeah, the jalapeno cheese bread totally rocks your taste buds. Moist and a nice kick of hotness from the jalapenos. One star off is for giving me the wrong order, long lines and bad parking....
pretty much everyone has already said it...
boils down to lots of DELICIOUS choices...
I started stopping here on road trips between Austin and Dallas in like 2001, but I think the secrets out now!
My tip - try the peanut brittle...the closest thing to my grandma's...mine never makes it home for anyone else to try!
Nickie reminded me that this place is amazing. I'm so glad they added on the bakery next door. It really helped with the lines. They do make amazing kolaches...but I really like the sandwiches too. When you see them in the case it's really hard to resist. I always come out of there with more food than I can eat. And usually I eat it anyway.
This trip we had cherry kolaches and homemade fudge. We call this 10 am meal "breakfast snack" since we'd just had breakfast tacos from Fuel City 70 miles prior.
The best Kolaches I have ever had! I have been stopping here for years as a 'pit stop' on the way home to Dallas from anywhere on the other side of Austin. We always get a box to eat on the road, and a box to take home. The Apricot and Cream Cheese Kolache is my favorite fruit one, and I love all of the meat Kolaches. The bread is slightly sweet and never dried out. They are cooked perfectly as Kolaches should be. The Kolaches around here- at the donut shops are really pigs in a blanket with a fancy title. A biscuit with a sausage in the middle is not a kolache!
They do have fast service and great sandwiches & cheap gas.
I also bought an AGGIE pacifier there for my grandbaby!
Going to school in Waco, a lot of conversations on Sunday night went like this:
"Let's get food"
"OK, cook something?"
"Nah, let's get something from somewhere"
"Sounds good, where from?"
--30 seconds of silence while we pretended to not know the answer
"kolaches?
"KOLACHES!"
20 minutes later I'm on the couch with a box of meat and cheese kolaches on my stomach watching tv again. . .man, college sucked. Every now and then I'll have a friend say they miss the Czech Stop or that they've never heard of it and I'm FORCED to say "Get in the car, we're going now."
The meat kolaches are by far my favorite. The sausage and jalapeno are great but any of the sausage with cheese are good to (come on. . .meat and cheese backed in a buttery roll? how could that fail??). Of course, I can't ignore the fruit kolaches since the blueberry ones almost turned me diabetic.
Simple idea, simple ingredients, simple set up that works. . .too well.
BONUS TIP: During CzechFest in West, TX you can get these bad boys at a discount while you drink an incredibly large beer and watch some interesting characters dance around a maypole.
Kolaches, kolaches and more kolaches! as my 4 years old would say "yummy, yummy in the tummy". They remind me of home (we call them "colaci") and all the goodies we will bake around Christmas and Easter.
Every time I'll take the excruciating 3-4 hours drive from Round Rock, TX to DFW I'll stop at this heaven bakery. A sweet oasis in a sea of interstate driving boredom! If you've been to TX you "the world is flat" and there isn't much to look at, especially on I-35.
The staff is ALWAYS friendly, the food is delicious and the prices are good. What else can you ask for?
Here is their menu in case you need more convincing: http://www.czechstop.n...
I too, meant to laude this place sometime ago... well here is my voice added to the choir singing praises of Czech Stop's amazing Kolaches.
This is our favorite pit stop on our regular trips to either Waxahachie or Dallas. Its at the perfect distance for stetching the legs, relieving the bladder, finding something cold to drink and something dee lish us before climbing back into the box to finish the trip.
Yeah... its out of the way unless you just happen to be going through West... but maybe you should. Just once. Just once I said.
Then you'll know.
WOW! Was I ever impressed by this place!! First of all, when you have lines coming out of something that's just right off the highway and you hear people commenting on their way in and out - saying stuff like "I'm glad we stopped here!" and "I've been craving this since Houston!" Well... dayum... I guess I came to the right place! I found my favorite kolache of all time here: strawberry. Mmmmm!!
On the walls you'll find pictures of visitors (both famous and not-so-famous) with signed thanks to the Czech Stop. What's funny about it is that I only remember Shakira... shows how much I pay attention... maybe I was just in that much awe over their goodies.
Czech Stop has the most amazing kolaches the world has ever known. When I die, I want to be buried with a gross of Czech Stop kolaches in the hope that I can, in fact, take something with me. Your life is not complete until you have had these. Hell, call me, any time, and tell me you want to go there and I will drive you myself. You don't even have to ask people if there kolaches are the best; just say, "Czech Stop" in a slightly quizzical manner around anyone in the entire world that has been there and you will immediately be greeted with a hearty smile and , "Fricken amazing kolaches."
