Baltic Bakery. (Hospitality and Gastronomy) in Philadelphia (Pennsylvania).
Description
Tucked away at 2617 E Allegheny Ave, Baltic Bakery is that kind of place you stumble upon and immediately want to take all your friends. Seriously, it’s like a secret treasure trove of baked goodness, and I’ve got to say, their bakes are a little slice of Poland in Philly.
Walking in, you might notice it’s a small store. But don’t let that fool you. The warmth and the aromas wrap around you like a cozy blanket. Folks say it’s like stepping into a grandma’s kitchen, and honestly, I get it. The rye bread? Well, it’s so fresh I almost burnt my fingers trying to slice it. Talk about a taste of authenticity!
Now, let’s chat pastries. You’ve got to try the poppy seed roll and cheese babka. They’re practically famous around here. I’ve heard some raving about their chrusciki too! Picture this: a flaky, delicate pastry with just the right crunch. It’s pure joy with each bite, echoing the sentiments of others who’ve come to love this spot.
Sure, they have a limited selection, but it seems they focus more on quality than quantity. A few people mentioned hoping for a wider variety, but honestly, when the rye bread is good, does it really matter? Plus, everything isn’t over-the-top sweet, which is a refreshing change from many bakeries that drown their goods in sugar.
And hey, if you’re thinking of a visit, just make sure you go during their operating hours! They keep things simple, open Wednesday to Saturday and a Sunday morning. If you’re ever in the area, grab some paczki, or better yet, a little bit of everything.
With 61 reviews and a solid score of 4.4 out of 5, it’s no wonder people rave about it. Baltic Bakery, you’ve definitely won a fan in me!
