Slovacek's West

Slovacek’s is very popular. I knew it would be busy for a Saturday lunch time but didn’t realize this was the place to be. Expect to come early and wait in line for the food. The staff was very patient and helpful. I will say the kolaches are delicious so I didn’t mind the wait. I got the jalapeño popper, sausage with cheese and jalapeño and turkey & swiss. It’s a good size kolache so I should’ve just order 2. The jalapeño popper was my favorite. There is seating available to eat inside but good luck finding a seat if it’s busy. I loved the Christmas chachkis there. They had a separate building for Christmas decor as well. You will definitely will not be bored here lol We will need to come back to stock up on their sausage lol

West, Texas has long been a pit stop along I-35. Slovacek’s had made the stop easy and quick. The clean restrooms and fast moving kolache line are refreshing. Good eats, clean restrooms and a spacious dog park make for a quick stop for us.

Really cool place to visit. It kind of like Bucees meets small town Texas. Good food, cool items, and of course Kolaches of all sorts. People are nice as your greated entering, and you could get lost with all their collectibles and souvenirs. If you haven't been id recommend you make some time and check it out. Also they have a rest stop for your dog, how much better does it get?

If you drive past this place then you need to get off the highway and make a u-turn. This place is the best! Go in there and have them fill up a whole box full of kolaches and pastries and all the goodies. You're going to eat on it for like 3 days. There should be a law that you have to stop at this place every time you drive down 35 between Dallas and Waco.

Heading to San Antonio from Dallas I made a pit stop for a restroom break and breakfast kolache. I either stop here or Czech Stop across the highway. They are both known for a wide range of kolaches and other pastries. Slovacek’s is much bigger, newer, and cleaner. It has all kinds of foods you can purchase. It’s like a smaller version of Buc-ee’s but doesn’t have that Super Wal-Mart feel that Buc-ee’s has. I grabbed a breakfast sausage with cheese and egg kolache to go. Service was very good and the folks behind the counter were very patient with some guests who couldn’t decide from all the options they have. I will say I do still prefer the breakfast kolache from across the road better. They are both good, but I prefer the dough at Czech Stop. Everything else is better at Slov
