New Glarus Polkafest

I come here for one reason, and one reason alone best cream horns you've ever had period end of story. The staff is pretty chill.

My husband and I visit this bakery every time we are in Wisconsin and they never disappoint on doughnuts. My husband loves the chocolate with vanilla cream filled doughnuts and I must agree, they are fabulous. You can call or use their website to order ahead of time, which I highly recommend to ensure they have what you want when you arrive. Pricing is fair and the staff are always welcoming. If you like baked goods, definitely give this place a try. Thanks!

Every time I walk in I get a rush of nostalgia from all the years growing up (from infancy to now). I remember visiting with my relatives to get the best darned hard Swiss bread and chocolate tart. They used to have a tea room up above but that has been gone for a while. Loved sitting up there with my Grandmother and drinking orange spiced tea and having a cream horn. If you are in the area, DO NOT pass this place up.

After some biking riding on the great nearby trails we decided to stop into town to see how they were surviving Covid. We were excited to see a few shops open including the bakery so we went in. The display cases were still well stocked given it was late in the day (a sign perhaps that business is slow? . I selected a peanut square which was good but a bit dry and not what I remember from my younger days in Milwaukee. I also got a chunk of the bee sting cake for later it was pricey but excellent. That center of cream is wonderful. We also picked up a donut like pastry with a maple filling that was quite good. So why just three stars given the good eats? Neither of the young workers were wearing masks! State mandate or not as a business serving the public the owners should be enforcing mask wearing by their staff during this times. Perhaps they deserve just one star!

Stopped here a month or two ago and forgot to publish. I got a caramel apple fritter, plus 2 rhubarb bars for my parents, plus a turtle, and some apple bread. Everything was very good. The rhubarb bars were tart and my dad said the turtle was delicious. From what I heard, the apple bread was moist and delicious. I wasn't around for that but I got it for the grandkids and my mom when the grandkids were visiting her. The one drawback is what I got for myself. The fritter was not that great. It had some caramel icing but the fritter itself didn't have a glaze or anything in addition so it was fairly dry. Next time I'm through the area, I'll probably try it again as everything else seemed very good.
