Olsen's Danish Village Bakery

This bakery was very close to where we were staying in Solvang, and it was recommended from our hotel. We came early both days, which was nice because there was not much of a line but when we left both days, it was getting busy. Staff are friendly and there are many choices for sweet treats. There were a few gluten-free options.

🥐 Pros: - Kringle Specialty: The bakery is renowned for its Kringle, a pretzel-shaped pastry with almonds and sweet filling, which is highly praised. 🥨 - Variety of Pastries: Offers a wide selection of delicious pastries, breads, cookies, and cakes, including cherry ‘n’ cheese danish and Swedish delight. 🍰🍪 - Award-Winning: Recognized by Sunset magazine as one of the best bakeries on the West Coast and has won a blue ribbon for best breads. 🏆 🥐 Cons: - Limited Gluten-Free Options: The bakery has a few gluten-free items like turtle and meringues, but the selection is not extensive. 🚫🌾 - Operating Hours: The bakery is open from 7:00 AM, but closing times vary throughout the week, which may not suit all customers. ⏰
