I pass the bakery often and decided to stop for 1/2 dozen of paczki this morning--…read moreWhat I observed standing in line --the workers were unfriendly to each other --it's an extremely busy morning when it's paczki day --you will be bumping into each other. The two ladies seemed overwhelmed--when it was my turn I asked for 2 fresh strawberry paczki which I had to repeat since she was having what seem a heated conversation with a co worker--there was no customer appreciation or pleasance from her--strictly business--i left with my order---not much to pick from and all had powdered sugar ---so the paczki was not tasty as I hoped for. The paczki was not fresh JUST OVERALL DISAPPOINTING!!!!! I will not recommend this place

Their donuts are quite tasty as well as their cookies. I've also tried their custom cupcake orders and the frosting is sweet but not overly cloying like some spots. Their paczkis can be a bit pricey depending on which ones you order but they're quite delicious.

We visited the Chicago Donut Coming any to try their seasonally appropriate mini Apple cider donuts…read moreafter a day of enjoying the fall colors and hiking in a nearby forest preserve. They were delicious! The mini donuts are superior to regular donuts due to their greater ratio of surface area to volume. These are served hot and fresh, the outside are crispy and lightly sprinkled with sugar and spices. Internally they are rich, warm cake. These donuts were perfectly executed, and the portion of 8 donuts per order was perfect for sharing with another person. I highly recommend you try their apple cider donuts, and I plan on trying whatever they offer next.

Reviewing their "Courageous Cones" ice-cream: one of the most delicious soft-serve ice creams I…read morehave ever had. You pick a waffle cone (vanilla/chocolate), an ice cream flavour (vanilla/chocolate/non-dairy coconut) and a fruit (strawberry, blueberry, plantain etc.). They blend the actual fresh fruit with the ice cream to produce an incredibly delectable, flavourful soft-serve. I got a vanilla waffle cone with chocolate ice cream blended with strawberries. It took maybe three or four minutes to serve because all of the blends are freshly made, and I had to wait in line for about twenty minutes, but the wait was worth it. It was nice to take the ice-cream cone and sit on a bench at the park nearby. The shop/window is attached to Courageous Cafe, but the operating hours are not the same as the cafe's, and one has to wait in line outside rather than indoors. The shop is about five minutes from the Oak Park Green Line CTA station. Highly, highly recommend this place to those visiting Oak Park! I might even make a trip all the way from the city for this ice-cream - it was that good!

There's a certain point where a bakery stops being a bakery and becomes a gravitational force, and…read morethis place crossed that line the moment I tried the pastries. Everything I've had so far has been spot‑on -- flaky, buttery, and made by people who clearly understand that "good enough" is not an acceptable standard for laminated dough. And then there are the cupcakes. The pink velvet and vanilla bean have basically derailed any attempt at exploring the rest of the menu. They're that good -- tender crumb, real flavor, none of that cloying sugar‑bomb nonsense. They even offer gluten‑free and vegan versions of some, which somehow manage to taste like actual cupcakes instead of punishment for dietary restrictions. There is a full breakfast menu, and it looks legitimately appealing... but I keep getting ambushed by the pastry case before I make it that far. One day I'll branch out. Today is not that day. If you're in Oak Park and want a bakery where the classics are done right and the cupcakes are dangerously habit‑forming, this is the one.

My favorite grocery store bread! Here at the bakery, you'll find their restaurant "free range"…read morefresh baked bread mostly for under $5 a loaf. There isn't any where to sit, so expect to pickup. There are cookies, cakes, pizza bread and coffee cake. The sweets were just okay for me. Hummingbird and carrot cake had a weird after tasting I did not like. Napoleon, my favorite custard, is good. Prices are fair for the size you get, cakes $2.75/slice $19.99/whole, cheesecake $3.75. There is no parking lot, but street parking is easy enough to find.

They have donuts, apple fritters, strudel, cookies, turnovers and even muffins. I always get a few donuts and muffins when I stop by. Everything is made fresh, on-site daily. Its best to go early while there is more of a selection because by the late afternoon, many items are gone. It is definitely a great spot to check out.

The atmosphere is perfect whether you're looking for a cozy place to get some work done or just want to sit, relax, and people-watch with a coffee in hand.

Food/pastry options are limited and didn't seem that appetizing. They have a small section of goodies they sell. Our barista was very patient while we asked questions and ordered.
