Top 5 Bakery in Illinois

302 S 3rd St, Geneva, IL 60134, United States

“The ice cream is some of the best I have ever had. I have been a customer for a long time but unfortunately the service has greatly gone downhill. The charm of the paper hats and vintage chocolate molds has disappeared and it’s just an average looking chocolate shop now. Not an enjoyable experience to go anymore but they do make great chocolates and ice cream.”

“Best danishes I've had in the St. Louis area. Great donuts too. If you have a crew to treat call them and pre-order a Dolly Madison. They also have great freshly baked bread, I love the polish rye.”

8530 Waukegan Rd, Morton Grove, IL 60053, United States

“One of the best burger spot in the area. Their homemade burgers are so flavorful and juicy. I love the many option of burgers they have. Our favorites are the lechon burger and Hawaiian burger with spam. The fries are always cooked to perfection. I highly recommend this spot for quick lunch or snack while you bowl. They also serve bubble tea. Service is fantastic. The brothers are always so friendly and helpful with the menu. Service is quick as well. There’s a few table to enjoy the meal but I noticed that a lot of their customers bring the food back to the bowling alley. It’s nice in their area and it gets a little loud only from the bowling alley side. Highly recommended.”

“After a long day at the bottom of a lake, we had the hankerin' for some ice cream. Walt's delivered. We found out that they had a no sugar added flavor available (butter pecan), so we grabbed a banana split and a strawberry shortcake. We were not prepared for how much ice cream you get. We stuffed our faces anyway.”

“So cute!! I love the vibes in here. It is so hard to find a place with retro vibes like this. I love how intimate the space is. The food was excellent, the coffee was amazing, such a good find!! I can't wait to come back to try all the pies. And the sodas! I got the matcha almond tea cake, butterscotch pie, the smoked salmon bialy sandwich, and a lavender latte 💙 My friend got the poblano breakfast sandwich with bacon, chocolate shake, and guava cheesecake. They were also very happy with their choices!”

“Two hit birthday cakes now, and counting! We’ve tried purple velvet cake (my personal favorite) and strawberry red velvet cake to date, and all party guests were obsessed with the flavor and quality. Definitely worth the price to impress your loved ones and friends :) Can’t wait to pop in and try more flavors by way of cupcakes!”

5357 N Ashland Ave, Chicago, IL 60640, United States

“I have had the polka dot cheesecake and the mango margarita pie twice each and they are devastatingly good. I would kill for the recipes. The polka dot cheesecake has almond flavor to it, delicious. And the mango margarita pie is so smooth and has tajin sprinkled on top which is just… *chefs kiss* Edit: have been back several times! Mango margarita is seasonal, but they do have the polka dot cheesecake always!”

“I was over this way taking care of business and someone recommended this spot. Omg-super delicious. Our server Valerie was so nice and recommended the jalapeño cheddar soup! It was absolutely delicious along with everything else. What a gem I’m Mt Greenwood !”

“Their muffins are delicious, I bought different flavored ones, just a little upset that the cream cheese muffin was pretty empty in the inside when opened in half, it was still delicious tho, maybe they should add more cream cheese or add more of the bread to it, if I make senses. Overall great flavor and lots of moisture soft muffins !”

3025-3113 W Logan Blvd, Chicago, IL 60647, United States

“I had the best Sunday morning at Logan Square. The farmers and artisans are so friendly, so lovely! The Midwest charm and welcoming air are on grand display at this market. Try the cheeses, so good! And the fruits and vegetables are as tasty as if I grew them in my backyard. Breads, pastries, pastas, sauce, all yummy. I also had the best coffee from the cafe on the street. Love it all, and I can't wait to visit again next year! Thank you for a memorable day, Logan Square Farmers Market.”

“I went here for paczki after a reddit recommendation and wasn’t disappointed. Authentic and healthy amount of filling, and they serve paczki everyday so you don’t have to stress if you miss fat tuesday”

“Very healthy breakfast , fresh food. Family oriented atmosphere, ❤️”

2054 W Grand Ave, Chicago, IL 60612, United States

“Friendly service and helpful cashier/chef. Low key atmosphere with some great options for vegan snacks. Delicious bacon Mac and cheese made with seitan meat. It smelled just like real bacon and tasted like it too. Vegan donut was scrumptious and organic apple juice was refreshing too. I was disappointed with the uptown dog…it was super salty so it wasn’t easy to consume. However, the friendly service and delicious snacks made up for it.”

9306 Skokie Blvd, Skokie, IL 60077, United States

“Emma’s is not like just a bagel place like its name. It serves a variety of selections on the menu besides bagels. LOX omelette was great! The lox cooked too much during the process ( I assumed) making it too dry, but it still was very flavorful and yummy. The warm toasted bagel melted the cream cheese perfectly and the hash browns had a wonderful crisp to them. definitely a good breakfast/brunch place. Highly recommended! 5/5”

“Update 1/6/23. This piece gets really busy on the weekends especially after 8 pm. It looked like they were understaffed since there weren’t a lot of silverware available. Seats were limited. It’s still a great place to get desserts and I love how aesthetically pleasing they are. I would recommend going on a weeknight. This time I ordered gluten free chocolate torte, passion fruit cheesecake slice, key lime tart, and kashmiri chai. Everything was palatable. Gluten free chocolate torte was smooth and just a small amount of richness. You don’t want it to be too rich, otherwise you’ll feel full faster. Passion fruit cheesecake, you can immediately taste the fruit and it’s not subtle at all. Key lime tart was very good, not as sour as you would think. Kashmiri chai I’ll have to order again. Very savory and I love how there are pistachios in it. Small dessert place but they also have some savory options that I’ll have to try next time. Nice hangout place. It wasn’t busy when I went and there were no kids. We ordered creme brulee, cookie butter cakesicle, gulab jamun cheesecake, ras malai cake jar, karak chai tea, and pina colada. I didn’t have any favorites. All of the desserts were delicious. Prices are reasonable, since there aren’t too many Indian dessert places.”

“this place has a staple in our hearts and in the town of Schaumburg! the BEST of the BEST!! & they made our Thanksgiving brunch this year magical!!”

498 E Roosevelt Rd, Lombard, IL 60148, United States

“Great place for a quick ice cream fix. Got the sugar rainbow cone… BEWARE! It is pretty big! All the flavors are good but my fav was the orange sherbet! Next time i would get only that one. Portions are very generous! Everyone was happy with their choice. Only one was my husband, he got the hot fudge Sunday but it had very little fudge. Pretty sure the employee just forgot the amount it came with. Mini doughnuts don’t look too tasty but they are pretty good!”

3114 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago, IL 60657, United States

“It was a clean space! Options to get slices to get your own pizza. They gave us bread to start which was really good. Then we got a few dish pizza that my husband and I really enjoyed. The staff was very friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend and come back!”
