New café brings the crookie and other innovative baked goods, pastries and patisserie to the neighborhood.
FREDERICK, Md., Oct. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Frederick just got crumbier. Roggenart European Bakery, Bistro and Café officially opened its doors and is serving up the flakiest croissants in town. Local community leaders including Frederick Mayor Michael O'Connor, Alderman Kelly Russell, Senator Karen Lewis Young, Fire Chief Thomas Coe, Madelyn Wilson of the Frederick County Chamber of Commerce, Endia Snowden of the Frederick County Office of Economic Development, Donna Goff of the City of Frederick Economic Development Department, and Ysela Bravo of Frederick County Executive Fitzwater's team joined owners Neman Popov and Brody Tennant as the pair broke a ceremonial large croissant to celebrate on October 1.
The new location is in the Frederick Shopping Center at 1305 W. 7th Street and is the newest home to Roggenart's viral menu item – the crookie – as well as more traditional, European baked goods, pastries and patisserie. Roggenart's menu also includes breakfast and lunch items like egg and cheese on a flaky croissant, oven-baked melts, and cast-iron pressed sandwiches.
"Small businesses like Roggenart truly spice up Frederick's flavor." said Frederick Mayor Michael O'Connor. "With each one that opens, we mix in more economic vibrancy and community spirit. So, to all our residents 'kneading' a pick-me-up, now's the perfect time to roll on by and get your fill!"
"We are so excited for Frederick to taste our flaky baked goods," said Brody Tennant, owner and managing partner. "Come on in for your favorite fall beverage – we have pumpkin spiced lattes too – and enjoy your favorite sweet treat."
The focus on unique, European-inspired flavors is evident throughout the menu, which features a variety of goods that are baked fresh daily, including the bacon and gruyere swirl featuring sauteed bacon and gruyere cheese rolled into croissant dough and topped with more gruyere, and the Danish generously filled with sweet cheese. The menu also includes a variety of vegan products, including croissants, Danishes and sandwiches.
"Frederick is a charming area steeped in history – a perfect spot for us to showcase our baked goods, pastries and patisserie, all based on the traditional European style, but with a twist," added Neman Popov, owner and managing partner.
