Rheinlander Bakery

The bakery is always busy but for a good reason. Everything was great and they have specific accommodations for food allergies. Gluten free options are prepared in a dedicated space so there is no cross contamination. The employees are super friendly and helpful.

Generally this place excels at the baked goods, but after our most recent purchase, my wife and are hesitant to return for what you pay for. Our Apple pie was pretty underwhelming and under-baked - I can hear Paul Hollywood in my ear whispering it to me. The crumb was also in massive chunks and the apples weren’t cooked through either. Disappointed.

Don't pass up this family-owned bakery just because it's not on a main street. This Old Town Arvada bakery has been baking authentic European goodies for over 60 years so you know it's great and worth finding. Bought several items here and all were fresh, delicious, and beautifully decorated. Enjoyed their strudels, cupcakes, cookies, and more. You can watch them make their delectable delights right behind the counter too. Staff are patient as you try to decide on what and how many to pick. No more store bought pastries for me when in the Arvada area.

This place has been around a long time and is currently owned by Johnson & Wales alumni! (I am also JWU alum so, this when I found this out, I was extra excited. To my delight, everything from here has been so mouth watering, and we've tried a lot of the pastries and cakes they make. Even had a custom cake made for my birthday in 2024 (photo included) that was so so good! The wont steer you wrong here.

I have been going to Rheinlanders for gluten free cake and treats for years and I’ve never been disappointed… until today. I got a Boston cream and ate it right outside and it was dry and stale. Got home and grabbed my beloved carrot cake. I couldn’t even eat it. It was so stale and dry, it was literally a brick that I couldn’t get my fork through. The strawberry shortcake was better and was soft. My husband enjoyed his apple strudel and cinnamon streusel roll thing. I do hope this was a one off… esp. because it’s such a staple for GF treats.
