Czech Stop – West, Texas

Czech Stop bakery offers visitors a culinary tour of Europe, even though they’re located in the tiny town of West, Texas.

West is home to many Czech immigrants who came to the United States in the late 19^th century, and although they arrived in search of opportunity, they didn’t want to lose their heritage and traditions. Many immigrants relied on Czech Stop for the authentic sweets they’d been missing from their homeland.

Now, Czech Stop caters to hundreds of visitors per day and ships their homemade kolaches, strudels, and pies all over the United States.
