Nothing quite compares to the taste of homemade pastries whose recipes have been passed down over generations. First opening its doors 20 years ago, the family-owned European Bakery and Cafe in Glendale offers international desserts (and some savory eats, too!) from several different European countries. From tiramisu to macarons to Armenian paklava and everything in-between, this place truly has it all. You might as well order one of everything!
Looking for a taste of the Old World right here in Arizona?
For the past 20 years, the family-owned and operated European Bakery and Cafe in Glendale has been offering just that.
David and Rose Kouyoumijan, Armenian natives, proudly craft pastries, breads, and other goodies inspired by flavors and traditions from all over Europe.

The pastry ingredients are held to similar standards, ensuring only the finest products make their way into customers' hands (or stomachs, we should say).
Perhaps equally famous are the massive sandwiches, from which there are over a dozen to choose. From chicken salad to veggie to a classic Italian, the options are next to endless, and all deli meats and cheeses are hand-cut to order.
The bakery is open Tuesday – Saturday from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. Visit its website or Facebook page to learn more.
