Lithuanian Bakery & Kafe

There are at least two good European Deli's in Omaha. The Lithuanian Kafe is at 74th and Pacific and has great homemade tourte's and other treats. It's parent biz is the Lithuanian Bakery and Delicatessen at 5217 S. 33rd AVe. They are both about as European as you can get. Another European-like bakery is the Bavarian Stube at Gerda's, 51st and Leavenworth, where you will find german food and bakery items, maybe a bit pricey. For restaurants, don't forget The Bohemian Cafe at 1406 S. !3th. For European chocolates and other treats available in a grocery store, you may be surprised to learn that the Aldi stores in Omaha and Council Bluffs have wonderful german items, since the chain is owned by the same billionaire brothers who also own the largest grocery chain in Europe. They have german chocolates, coffee, tea, and other items throughout and are all offered at very decent prices too! more

If you are looking for an intimate setting, reasonable prices and great service, this is the place to go. First, the staff are all very kind and friendly. I sincerely feel like I am at grandma's house. The food is excellent (comfort food and home made) and the ambiance can't be beat. If a dessert is what you have in mind, try their torte! It is amazing. Light and flaky yet loaded with flavor, this will be one of your favorites. Both the bakery and the Kafe itself are a great way to spend your lunch hour or just hang out with a good friend. more
