While your gaze wanders over the sweeping, charming landscape of the hilly Danube region over a coffee, behind the scenes - in the bakery - a story is being written that combines craftsmanship, regional passion and family dedication. It is Gerhard and Catrin Bauer who make this place more than just a bakery and patisserie. The Panorama Café is all about enjoyment, close ties to the Danube region and dedication to craftsmanship. In 2003, master baker and confectioner Gerhard Bauer took over the traditional business in Pfarrkirchen. Together with his partner Catrin, he is now the fourth generation to run the patisserie. Originally founded by Gerhard's parents in 1970, the business has developed over the decades into a panoramic café with breathtaking views of the Mühlviertel hills and the Danube region. In addition to the traditional bakery, Café Bauer has also made a name for itself as a patisserie - everything from homemade chocolates, light fruit tarts and the classic apple strudel is created here with great attention to detail. A particular speciality of the house is the Pfarrkirchner banana bomb, for which guests return time and time again. Those who come for the fresh baked goods will also find a varied selection: fresh bread every day and a wide range of pastries. Those with a sweet tooth can also look forward to high-quality, homemade ice cream - something Gerhard is proud to talk about. In addition to its day-to-day operations, Café Bauer also relies on its apprenticeship programme as another flagship. With highly motivated apprentices, they proudly contribute to the promotion of young talent in the retail, bakery and patisserie sectors. The Panorama Café is not only known for its delicious baked goods, but also for the breathtaking view it offers its guests. The hilly Mühlviertel region stretches out from the panoramic terrace, gently sloping down to the Danube. Here, the beauty of Upper Austria can be savoured to the full - and with a full stomach. The view is not the only reminder of the region, as the patisserie attaches great importance to regional products such as eggs and organic rye, which are then used to make the popular Mühlviertel organic rye bread, for example. Visitors particularly enjoy baking demonstrations, where they can look over the shoulder of master patissier Gerhard at close quarters. A visit to the café not only brings anticipation of a culinary experience, but is also the perfect opportunity to relax. From the panoramic terrace, you can enjoy the view of Pfarrkirchen and the surrounding area offers a variety of MTB, cycling and hiking tours right on the doorstep: from the [**Penzenstein-Runde**](https://www.donauregion.at/oesterreich-tour/detail/430008577/r1-06-penzenstein-runde.html) and the [**Mühlviertler Dom-Runde**](https://www.donauregion.at/oesterreich-tour/detail/430008578/r1-07-muehlviertler-dom-runde.html) to the [**Traumblickrunde**](https://www.donauregion.at/oesterreich-tour/detail/430000335/pfarrkirchen-traumblickrunde.html) or the [**Schmetterlingswanderweg**](https://www.donauregion.at/oesterreich-tour/detail/430000332/schmetterlingswanderweg.html).
