O&H Danish Bakery

Cheese pockets!!! Best ever! They just need more in stock because they are always sold out!

Delicious bakery with donuts, kringle, frosted cookies, cakes and more! All are fresh, from scratch and heavenly.

This is definitely my favorite bakery in the Milwaukee area. I’ve had their kringle for years, but I’ve never been to their location before. We went to grab a couple of kringle for my nephew’s baptism, and it turns out that they have seasonal flavors, as well as the traditional flavors. We tried the cranberry, but the Thanksgiving flavor (pecan and cranberry) looked delicious as well. We picked up a loaf of Danish Rye ($ 2.25 for a loaf and they will slice it for you there). The apricot danish was ridiculously good. Buttery, flakey, and drizzled with icing, it was the perfect Sunday morning treat. The doughnuts were less than a dollar and could rub elbows with any of the fancier doughnut shops out there. If you get a chance, stop on by!

Before you read this, just know that I am crazy, crazy about my desserts and sweet treats.
I order Kringle for Thanksgiving and Christmas every year and absolutely love it. Everyone else in the family does too. I always said if I’m ever near Racine, I am going to the O&H Bakery.
The chance came this past week while visiting family about 100 miles north. I had some free time one day and decided to jump in the car and hit the nearest location to me. I was so excited to walk in and see all the Kringle, various other pastries, breads and cookies right before my eyes.
Being that the Kringle is $ 8.50 here (versus $ 19.99 for online ordering, ahem O&H, can you cut us a break?) I decided to buy 4. I also bought some Angel Food Cookies, Sugar Cookies and Cut Out Cookies (almond sugar) to share at the family reunion dinner.
The ladies working here looked at me a bit oddly when I explained my story, but I suppose I would too if I had Kringle at my disposal every day.
The Kringle was a huge hit with the previously uninitiated — and even with the Wisconsinites who had it long ago. Everyone raved at how great they all were: Cream Cheese, Cherry Cheese, Cinnamon Roll and Apple.
I braved a torrential storm on the way home and returned just in time for dinner and to share my crazy story. I will definitely visit again when I’m back in the state.

Get the cream cheese kringle. I still have dreams about it. The almond macaron is great too.
This place is sort of out of the way and boasts a drive-​thru that I have never seen in use. IT’s sort of tucked away behind a gas station and you have to make a u-​turn to get to it. This must not be great for business.
Also, the staff are not that pleasant. I have never been greeted with a smile and anyone who is not attending to me looks downright upset.
But the pastries, OH, the pastries…

Lately it seems a trip home to southeast Wisconsin is never complete without a stop at a O&H. Without a doubt, I make a beeline for the pecan kringles, my beloved all-​time favorite. The Wisconsin, cream cheese, apple, and turtle varieties are great too. They keep for several days, freeze, and even ship well. Great gifts! O&H kringles definitely beat out competitors like those you’d find at a local grocery store. While not the healthiest thing, their consistency and fresh quality is unbeatable.
They have other kinds of treats too. Their chocolate chip cookies are also yummy, have a nice chocolate chip to flour ratio. and remind me of homemade cookies.
Luckily, the flavors I’ve gone for were in stock when I arrived there (usually early evening), but you can always call ahead to make sure they’ll have your desired flavor ready for purchase. Every time I go, my questions are answered. The transactions are quick and pleasant.

I go there for bakery so my review is for that. The pastries/​donuts/​Kringle/​bakery is top notch. But they get a 3 because of the service. Grumpy, crabby, inattentive. Hey if you don’t want to work there get a new job! Also, they overcharged me. I challenged them on it and they acted like they were right. I let it go and left because it wasn’t worth it to continue debating the bill. Anyway if you want some excellent bakery items then come here but be willing to put up with their employees.
