Cute little place we happened upon while walking back from dinner. It's self-serve so it was easy to get what you wanted and there were so many options! Between the 4 of us, we ended up getting quite a few things to try. Some were just ok but the highlights were the muffin (unsure what flavor as nothing was labeled but it tasted like coconut) and the coconut macaroon. Check out was quick and easy. Excellent prices as well. read more

I came to this Panaderia to check out their pan Dulce. I will admit, the location is quite odd for a Mexican bakery, but hey if they can generate business out of this location, then great for them. The older lady working here was very welcoming. She doesn't treat you like if you were a customer. She treats you like if you were part of her family. The prices on the bread was more than fair. I took home a concha, Puerco, elote, novia, beso and a cookie with sprinkles for the kiddo. Everything tasted very fresh and delicious. My only complaint is some of the pan dulce had cinnamon pieces in it. Which I absolutely hate in Mexican bread. Especially in the elotes. I'm. It sure I would out of my way for this bakery, but if I'm ever in the area in the mornings, I wouldn't mind picking up a couple of conchas. read more

It's delicious! And it's like going to bakery in Mexico I love here! Good taste! also they're kind! Service good!

I loved this bakery. Sadly, the customer service is terrible. The lady ringing us up , seems to always be irritated with my family and I being there. From huffing and puffing when we asked her to add a coffee to our order, to throwing our frosted pastries upside down inside a bag without a container. My wife and I have seen her place frosted pastries into a plastic container for other customers before right in front of us and then proceed to just toss ours like a regular piece of sweet bread into the bag. read more

#thankyouthursday Artemio's Bakery is the most reliable place to visit for freshly made baked goods. Luckily they open pretty early so you can beat the crowds, because it does get really busy, when picking up freshly baked breads. I love that whenever I visit they have a new treat for me to try out. I cannot get enough of the giant cookies or the homemade cupcakes. Both are a must try, I would highly recommend the almond cookie. My husband and I typically get a few of the freshly baked croissants along with a sweet treat. I am so used to most things being so over priced in Lakeview that I am always astonished by how cheap our purchases turn out. We leave with a bag stuff with items and it always turns out less than $10 no matter what combination we grab. Plus the shop has been great with promoting social distancing and sanitizing the shop. It is the few places that I don't worry about when I come in to make my purchase. I would highly recommend visiting early in the morning on a week day because it gets busy on the weekend. read more

Love this bakery and the hours are great open late. It's a stop on our walk home from the park usually.

Excellent Mexican bakery! Always fresh pastries and plenty to choose from. My favorites and the flan, blueberry muffins, and macaroons. Clean as it gets! The women who operate his business deserve 6 stars for customer service and baking skills. Super reasonable. It's nice to see a bakery like this survive in an ever changing neighborhood. The hood would far less without it. If you have not been you are missing out. Stop in and get your sweet tooth on! read more

A Mexican bakery that serves pan dulce, or sweet pastries. It's affordable, and the pastries are great! I came here after a 24-hour shift at the hospital, and let me tell you, there's nothing better than freshly baked pastries in the morning when you're exhausted and hungry. There's a large assortment of baked goods, and it's self serve. You pick up a tray and a pair of tongs and choose whatever you want from the array of sweet breads. I didn't know the names of things (I'm only really familiar with conchas, the seashell-like buns with spiral craquelin topping), but I picked a rectangular puff pastry with pineapple filling and Boston cream donut-type pastry with a chocolate glaze. Altogether with my boyfriend, we got four pastries, which amounted to $7. I was pretty pleased with the pastries, especially for the price. These pan dulce are large, and while not super sophisticated in flavor or made with finesse, you can't beat the price and the freshness, and I would definitely come back. read more

Love Artemio's. The best Mexican bakery I have been to so far. I thought they closed on Sheridan but happily discover the just moved across the street and the bakery is much nicer. read more

Our family and I absolutely love this bakery. We have been getting bread from there for more than 30 years. However we went Christmas Eve morning and the lady with glasses who rings people up. Refused to charge my mother and had a disgusting attitude. We were completely confused because we had just gotten to the register and walked away. Customer service is key during this season. It's not the first time, she always has an attitude and seems to hate her job. We understand there is other bakeries out there, we choose to give them our money. read more

Love this place. Go in here with nothing in mind and grab everything that looks good. Your total will be less than $15. My favorite is the concha. Nice folks in there as well, favorite spot to go on the weekends. Fill up your own tray which is nice and quick. read more

I go here every morning and the service is pretty consistent,l a lady that works there Monday -Thursday is always friendly. The coffee and muffins are always fresh and delicious. The only negative comment would have to be about the service I receive on Fridays. The cashier at times does not say good morning. Her demeanor isn't consistent or welcoming. I've never spoken to her in Spanish but she insists on speaking to me in Spanish. I always say good morning and thank you. I don't think she is terrible by any means but could use some support with being consistent in her delivery and service. Other than that, it's a pretty consistent and good. read more

I want to start off by saying how mad I am that my friend lives half-a-block away from this blessing of a bakery. The donuts are super fresh, delicious, not-too-sweet, super fluffy and filling. We had the regular one, chocolate glazed, chocolate glazed with sprinkles and all were amazing. I also got the vanilla corn bread and it was huge and wonderful and made me swear some at my friend's proximity to this place. We paid $3.40 for everything. Yeah, awesome stuff at such prices!! Plus the shop smells like heaven and the bakers are super friendly! PS: Devoured all donuts before pics. Sorry not sorry. read more

The evening weekend employee was extremely rude. As I walked around looking for what I wanted, she walked around sweeping and gave me a dirty look as if she was bothered that I was there. Upon paying, she yelled at me saying that there was a minimum of $3 for card purchases. There's a nicer way to communicate that. The whole time I was there I just felt uncomfortable. No warm welcome or even a "thank you" or "good night." Will NOT be coming back. You can find better tasting bread with friendlier staff that actually appreciate the business. read more

I have been to several Mexican bakeries around the city, they are fairly standard in what is offered with a few variations. I just finished lunch nearby and stumbled in here with my mandatory need to sample all possible sweets despite not really needing to do so. The layout is cute with cabinets that you can access from two sides, the flow around the store is nice as you pick out your own items for the cafeteria tray. Mexican pastries are always a little blander and less complex than the most high end desserts but they satisfy the sugar craving big time. Very cheap, only 4$ for what was probably 2000 calories worth of stuff (including a diet coke of course: spread over the week!). They do cakes for families and kids as well. read more

What a great find! I was volunteering at a food pantry down the street and after sorting and looking at food for hours I was starving! I saw Artemio's as I was heading back and just had to stop and get something. Of course, I ended up with 4 things, not just 1 because it all looked so good and everything was so cheap. I only paid $5.25 for 4 separate pastries/desserts! The coconut chocolate macaroon and the raspberry filled tart were especially good read more

Best local bakery of the north side. Amazing prices, fast service, baked in house and fresh every day. If I could give it 6 stars I would!

Food is delicious. Very reasonably priced. The apple turnover is perfect. Am definitely going to stop by regularly.

Fresh mexican bread for the Northside of town. I'm always amazed at how fresh the bread is when picking some up. Give donuts a break try this Mexican bakery. Coffee is also available. For those unfamiliar with the Mexican bakeries, you'll grab a tray and tongs to pick out your breads. There is a variety to choose from dont feel overwhelmed. Try different breads during different visits. I highly recommend the coffee to get your day started or even for an afternoon boost of energy. Cant go wrong with a "con-cha" and coffee. They serve the freshest breads, straight out of the ovens in the Northside of Chicago. I cant emphasize enough how fresh and delicious the bread is from this bakery. read more

Love Artemio's and a little shocked I haven't reviewed it yet. The pastries, the bread, the cookies and coffee! Not sure where to start. Everything is delicious and amazingly fresh. They'll replenish the assortment through out the day, especially for popular items. My daughters are particularly keen on the cookies, by my husband and I are always drawn to the coffee cake. I'll admit I was a little intimidated at first because I'm not familiar with pan dulce and the self serve tray/tongs format. But glad I gave it a chance and keep heading back. read more

Omg! I was trying to buy some bread for Italian sandwiches and everything was sold out. I've seen this bakery several but thought it would over priced. What?!?!? I tried to escape with 4 rolls, it was 1.40. That work have been 10.00 anywhere else and delicious! Go here! read more

For a long time I've been going to this bakery. I've always loved it and thought they were a great small business. Recently found out the owners are not the best people. Was told the lady that worked here that I've known for years got fired after getting in a car accident and having a bruised face. That leaves their bread tasting horrible in my opinion. Do better for your community. Chicago needs love not hate read more

Authentic Mexican bakery. Everything is made fresh daily. Happy to see this place remain in business because it's a neighborhood staple. Stop by and try a variety of treats. read more

I recently moved from LA to Chicago and I've been craving Mexican bread. I found this place online and it did not disappoint! The bread is amazing and freshly made. True to the Mexican spirit of not over charging the people. As a Mexican American, with high standards when it comes to the taste of pan dulce, I recommend this place. Be weary tho...you might gain 10lbs. read more

so so so so good and so so so happy that a small business like this is so close by! finally stopped by on one of my evening walks, and got there 5 minutes before close. don't know exactly which breads/pastry i got, but got a relatively plain wheat bread, a sweet bread that wasn't a concha but delicious all the same, and a pastry filled with pineapple and had caramelized edges. the breads were still fresh even at end of the day and when i brought them to toast at home, they were light and heavenly. but the stunner was the pastry filled with pineapple!!! the pineapple filling had LARGE distinguishable chunks of fruit and wasn't too sweet which was a delight to eat with the crispy pastry even after having sat in the fridge for 2 days. i was only going to eat one bite, but ended up shoving the whole thing down in 3 minutes cause it was soooooo tasty. and all of these breads!!! for just three bucks :) read more

It's been a while since I visited my grandmother. She's living with my Auntie. Since I miss her so much I decided to go visit with her and stay there for one week. I also bought her a lot of presents. Before I go there I want to buy him some bread aside from flowers. She loves bread and when I was a kid we used to eat bread, sandwich and bagel every morning with some milk or coffee. I went to this shop. It was my second time coming here and I like their bread. There is a lot of bread to choose from. It was kinda hard to choose since all of it tasted really delicious. I bought again the bread that I bought here lastime because it taste so delicious. It was packed in the box. I'm sure my grandma will like this. Can't wait to see her reaction. read more

Artemio's is my go-to bakery in the area and I make it a point to stop by almost every weekend. They have plenty of goodies to choose from and their empanadas are quite honestly the best I ever had. The store is clean and well organized. Highly recommend stoping by and trying out the sweets! read more

Great reliable place with a lot of variety. It doesn't look like it at first but they surprise you with taste and what's on inside. They have a lot of traditional stuff but also have stuff for holiday themed. Nothing with meat in it though but a few have cheese. They have cold desserts too and coffee. I think they do cakes too. A lot of traffic and open every day. Don't be offended if they aren't talkative or bubbly; they're working. read more

Arguably the best panadería on the north side! My family has been going here for decades. The prices are very affordable and everything is delicious. read more

My go-to pastry place on my way to work, perfectly situated between my neighborhood and Wrigley Field. I don't have a clue what anything in here costs, but I know I can get nine doughnuts for $5.40. Sometimes I can get half a dozen various pastries for about $3. I don't think I've ever spent more than $10, even when I added on coffee, and some of those fresh bananas in front of the register. You're not going to go broke in Artemio's. You might gain ten or fifteen pounds, though, so be mindful of that. Great little neighborhood spot, and highly recommended -- I've got two sugar-encrusted thumbs up on this one! read more

The best yet of Mexican fresh pastry breads!! I frequent this place and recommended many people who also love this bakery!!!

Anyone that know me knows that I'm not big on sweets. I'm a huge fan of chocolate chip cookies and yellow pound cake. You might even catch me eating some ice cream during the summertime but that's about it. I normally wouldn't have come to a place like this by myself but we had just finished having sushi from OH Fusion next door. Inside, we found a nice looking bakery with assorted pastries and a friendly lady behind the counter. I ended up buying a couple of things for the lady friend, both only about $1 I believe, and we went on about our way. We hadn't not even made it to the next block and after trying her coffee cake, I made an immediate about face and went back to purchase one of my own. It had some kind of apple filling inside and was flaky with nuts and frosting on top. I've said it before and I'll say it again, the coffee cake is the truth. Keep doing what you're doing Artemio's and I will keep coming. read more

I grew up buying all my bread at Mexican bakeries. I was so thrilled that there was one half a block away when I moved to Wrigleyville. The people here are so friendly and passionate about their job. I was so sad for 6 months when they closed down. Their new location right across the street is adorable and inviting. The only thing that stayed the same was their quality of baked goods. I stop by here once a week on my way to work to bring conchas to work. Highly recommend this plAce!! read more

I normally only buy from a Mexican bakery when I'm in a Mexican neighborhood, Pilsen for example. Living here on the Northside near Wrigley Field, I was IN HEAVEN when I discovered Artemio's Bakery. They are delicious. Glad to have found this gem so close to home. My weekend ritual is to walk there with my coffee, pick up a pan dulce, and eat it on my Saturday stroll : ) read more

I quickly stopped in here because I had a craving for my churros, which is a usual problem on the weekends. I didn't find churros, but that's ok because there were so many other options to choose from. There was a very good selection, considering how small the bakery is. I was also impressed that they were still bringing out fresh trays of baked goods on an early Saturday evening, so you don't have to worry about eating stale stuff here. The price is more than reasonable-I was kind of shocked at how cheap everything was. Service was quick and friendly. We walked out with many more sweets than planned, but they were huge and delicious. I would totally stop in here again if I was nearby and craving something sweet. read more
