Cedar Rapids' Czech Village neighborhood is one of the most vibrant and welcoming communities in the Hawkeye State.

Right in the heart of it all is Sykora Bakery, the family-owned establishment that's been treating Iowans for years.

Sykora is known for its homemade breads that often sell out on the day that they are baked.

Stop by in the morning for a sticky bun that pairs perfectly with a cup of hot coffee, or another breakfast pastry that's sure to satisfy your sweet tooth.

Cookies, cakes, pies, and turnovers are baked fresh and they taste delicious right out of the oven. You can even order a big tray to bring to your next gathering.

Try their Czech pastries and treats, like this Babovka. This pound cake is made with glazed fruit, raisins and a whole lot of poppy seeds.

If you stop by for lunch, enjoy a cup of homemade chicken soup or chili, and a sandwich.

Before you leave, check out their discount section. Any day-old bread is priced to sell, and it's just as tasty when you bring it home.

Spend some time in the Czech Village this year and enjoy a trip to Sykora Bakery, where you’ll find the best breads, pastries, and sweets in town.

Address: 73 16th Ave SW, Cedar Rapids, IA 52404, USA
