Bohemian Bakery Cafe

Our favorite venue in Helen. Our favorite bakery café now anywhere, actually, If it was close to home we’d be in real danger of breaking our scales.
Do yourself a favor and head for the Bohemian for breakfast or lunch as often as possible while you are in town. We regretted having gone to one of the other bakeries for our first breakfast in Helen, as it does not touch this one in quality and service. No issues with changing the menu items — in fact they offer a make-​your-​own combo if you don’t like the ones you see.
The family that owns the bakery is low key and very friendly, including their adorable 2-​year-​old. The dining room is bright and open, but tables are few and on the intimate side so it won’t accommodate a large party.
Breakfast and lunch sandwiches & crepes are fresh and inventive, and the bakery treats are out of this world good. Luckily most of the treats are of the one/​two bite size (3 for $ 5.00), so you can try a large variety and not feel (too) guilty.
Recommended for breakfast: The Biker Chick (ask for extra jalapeño sauce on the side) and the Baker’s Cheese Crêpe.
For lunch: The smoked turkey and cheese on the pretzel roll, and the tomato basil soup, The potato salad is incredibly good!

Fresh, new, clean shop. They have a good variety of pasteries, etc. The Apple Strudel is yummy. We chose a variety of items to share as it was too hard to narrow down to one favorite each. They had samples which allowed us to try new flavors AND purchase them!
He was super kind & helpful in helping us place our order. They bake on-​site. The freshness is obvious.
Can’t wait to return!

Very nice people work there! The food is authentic and flavorful. Open early on Sundays for breakfast and looks like the only place that is!
