Matok Bakery- pre orders only — Restaurant in Austin

I can't thank Michal enough for her kindness. My friend and I drove over two hours from Houston to Austin after seeing her pastries on Instagram, only to realize when we arrived that orders had to be placed a day in advance. I called, t9 let her know we are outside her door and she patiently explained that she is in the processof opening a bakery and works from home for now. I was already having a horrible week, and was about to break down in tears. however, since we had driven so far, Michal offered us a few samples she had made, and that small kind gesture truly turned my day around. The pastries were absolutely delicious, but more than that, her kindness meant everything to me that day. Thank you so much for going out of your way, and I will make sure to visit again once you open your bakery or just in call in advance...

This cottage bakery feels like a rare find.

Today was my first order pickup, and I’m already looking forward to trying more things from here!

The food looks as good as the pictures. Everything was fresh and well-packaged. We ordered the fougasse and the spiced apricot loaf, and both smelled so good that I had to fight the urge to eat them immediately in the car by myself. And the taste and textures? They’re quite good!

You can tell Michal pays attention to detail and craftsmanship in baking. The result is a tasty, unique menu for south Austin — which my whole family can enjoy together, thanks to options for gluten-lovers and for those with dietary restrictions. Love that!

I’m so glad they’ve brought their artisanal breads and pastries to the area. I will be...

In my mind, there’s only two worthy pastry bakeries to mention in Austin. Austin has been lacking on the artisanal French style pastries and bakery.

Enter Motak. Yes it’s run at a house (for now) but man every pastry and bread here is phenomenal. The flavors are delicate yet complex and they only use very high quality ingredients. It’s great because they don’t use a lot of sugar but maybe a lot of butter which is necessary. That and time.

Everything is good here. I don’t have a favorite because it’s all good. Just try them all. They have some unique flavors too.

It’s about 15-20 mins outside of downtown Austin. Sometimes I wish they were closer but I’m also happy they aren’t because I’d eat them all the time!
