1900 Barker Bakery and Cafe

My coworker and I got an assortment of their pastries for the office. Got about 20-30 pastries for $110 with tip included.

All of them are delicious. I even tried the ham & cheese and this blew my mind to how good it is! Mind you, I usually disliked all ham & cheeses in every place I go to (they never look appealing to me) — except this place. So this speaks volumes.

The lemon croissant, regular croissant, cinnamon bun all are *chef’s kiss* too.
The only one I didn’t get to try was the almond pastry. But my coworkers said they’re delicious too. Needless to say, I look forward to going back here!

Really nice slices of sourdough pizza. Vegetarian pizza and vegan pizza option. The coffee drinks are also good. Also fantastic sourdough. Really overall lovely spot and high quality bread!

I was in Lawrence for a day and stumbled upon this little bakery cafe. I got the vanilla latte which was lightly sweetened that complemented the coffee, had great flavor and was perfectly made.
I also got their raspberry lemon curd croissant and was blown away by the taste and different texture.

Their kale and caramelized onion quiche was also very delicious and perfectly flaky. I wanted to try more things on their menu but I was already stuffed. I want to try their chocolate croissant next.
The staff were also very welcoming and helpful.

Reminded me of being in Paris. So quaint and beautiful inside with the smell of fresh breads. I loved the quiet bustle of patrons coming and going. My quiche was delightful and the croissant was the best croissant I've had. I'd highly recommend this gem to any local or visitor of Lawrence!

I used to love coming here but as of late not so much. The staff has an arrogant almost indifferent vibe.
Its almost as if coming in is a burden to them. Pastries are wonderful but maybe not worth the attitude?

1900 has never disappointed. Coffee is superb.
The food is baking perfection. The location is not car-friendly when it comes to parking, and that's a feature, not a bug. Cost is high for my economic strata, so it's a special occasion experience.
Levee Cafe and 1900 are my go to joints for daytime eats.

Ever been lucky enough to eat at Tartine Bakery in San Francisco? This is as close as you can get in the Midwest. For those who understand the reference, you’re in for a surprise and a treat here. For those that don’t, it should become clear after a trip to 1900 Barker that I’m talking about a group of folks who have truly honed their craft. The pastries here are truly something special. My favorite is the Morning Bun. Their specialty coffee concoctions are at least as good, if not better than any others in town. These folks were born to do what they do here!

I have loved every experience here at 1900, I think the ambiance and selections have always been amazing and to my taste.

However this one time I got a Pain au Chocolate and it was kinda either soggy or chewy but moist in the middle and led me to wonder if it was undercooked. But otherwise its a staple for having coffee in Lawrence!

Oh, this is one of our faves in LFK. The quiche is to die for. The bread and pastries are so well executed. Everything I've ever gotten here has been wonderful. Parking is the only thing we ever fight.

We definitely ordered more than necessary but just couldn’t help it with all of the choices! The chocolate almond croissant was absolutely amazing!
