What people say, in short
Batch in East Austin draws repeated kolache recommendations, especially for its veggie sausage, hashbrown and cheese combination and fruit-filled options. One customer compares the fruit kolaches favorably with Czech Stop. Value and consistency divide opinion: several diners find the kolaches expensive for the portion. Two diners perceive declining quality, while another wonders whether the kolaches have shrunk. One fan warns that the sausage, jalapeño and cheese option can sell out. Others prefer competing shops for a simpler sausage kolache.
