I've been to La Baguette a few times already. They don't have the best selection of pan dulce. Really just the popular stuff. But what they do have with the selection that they off is quality. The bread tastes fresh and delicious every time. We recently picked up some Pan de Muerto from here it so far has been my favorite of the ones I have tried. Will definitely be returning. read more

I ordered a large cake for my daughter's baby shower. From the moment I walked in I was greeted by the Manager Tina. She was friendly and helped me look through pictures and pick the perfect cake for the baby shower. I was assured it would be made the same day and it would be perfect and it absolutely was! Two level fresh and fluffy! Everyone wanted to know where I ordered this fantastic cake! I would highly recommend La Baguette for any of your bakery needs! read more

La Baguette - Baby shower Cake - Bakeries Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

There are a lot of variety of goods inside! From cookies to breads to cake, there is something for everyone! I got my favs, conchas! I got them off the racks (meaning they were freshly baked). The conchas were fluffy with a delicate, sugary, top coat. Yummy! read more

The pastry is amazing, staff was great and ambiance is refreshing. Kind of like a big welcoming coffee shop but with tons of baked goods. read more

This bakery is conveniently located next to the little village arch. There is a huge parking lot, at no additional cost. I came here to pick up some pan dulce, it has been years since I had some of la baguettes pan. As you walk in, there's already an overwhelming amount of bread on the shelves and on carts. They have plenty of variety for you to pick from. I didn't know where to even start! I grabbed a tray and added some of my favorites. I will say their chocolate donuts are really good! It was the right amount of sweetness, not too sweet-- just ideal. Service was fast and adequate. read more

I love the conchas, they are delicious and I have been eating their conchas since I was younger. They have always been very nice, helpful and the service has been great. The ambience changed a lot since I was younger because it used to be a smaller little store but t was nice especially because I used to go with my abuelita and get so much bread. It was so delicious. It gives me so many memories and I love La Baguette. read more

I just called twice to place an order and the lady hung up on me. I called once and spoke English and then called back and tried my best in Spanish. Both times she hung up. What horrible customer service after getting such high recommendations from a friend. I will be taking my business elsewhere. read more

They have a huge selection of treats, my favorites being the conchas and churros. I usually pick random things that look good, and they usually are good. If you have no concept of how much it costs at these kinds of bakeries, I'll tell you, you can get about 10 pieces of bread for like $7. Depends what you get, too, of course. But it's very cheap. You won't be paying $7 for a single piece of bread, that's for sure. There was only one instance when I went on a Saturday afternoon where the displays were pretty empty (how do you run out of conchas at a Mexican bakery????) and what was left was not very fresh. But I have been here several times, and it's not typically that bad. read more

This is an amazing place to get unique pastries. They are open early and very easy to select and buy the doughnuts and pastries.

I decided to polish off my charbroiled chicken from Pollo Feliz with tres leches cake from La Baguette. For $3.25 you get a well portioned, square sized cake. As far as bakeries go, I think this location has the best tres leches. However, Kristoffer's and El Ranchito are still on the top of my list. Besides cakes, they have an eyeful of bread and pastries. I also tried the donut but it was pretty bad. So after trial and error of other Mexican bakeries, I'm gonna conclude I'm not a huge fan of Mexican pastries in Chicago. Gonna stick to the items in the show room fridgerated section. read more

Very bad costumer service done by manager. Purchased a " Rosca de Reyes" and when I cut it in a family reunion everyone was disappointed because the "rosca" was filled up with some kind of red jelly, no were at the bakery display saw some sort of sign that described the extra flavor added to the "rosca" , roscas traditionally are baked with no filling inside. When I realized my "rosca" was filled with this sort of jelly called the bakery to ask about an exchange since I dont like this kind of " Rosca" I was put on hold while the employee asked the manager but then she said that the manager said that it was my own fault and that I should asked about the item before purchase , Told the employee that how come was my responsibility to know how they elaborate their products but she just said she was and employee , I asked to talk to the manager but was told the manager was too busy and to call back some other time . LA BAGUETTE BAKERY IS A VERY BAD PLACE TO HAVE BUSINESS WITH. read more

An extremely authentic Mexican bakery. Its so authentic, most people here do not speak English. The baked goods/pastries are displayed openly (not covered in glass) but do not have labels so you have no idea what you are looking at. What you see is what you get, unless you take it home to find out whats inside what you bought. You can try your lucky by asking someone here what the pastry is made of or what the inside filling is. I bought an apple turnover, a butterfly cookie, and some other flaky pastry covered in cinnamon and sugar. All of it was delicious and only cost me $2.40!!!!! They have many cakes for special occasions and chocolate covered fruits here like a typical bakery. They accept credit cards here but require a $5 minimum charge. The one thing I didnt like was that I saw a few flies flying around that sometimes landed on the pastries. Needless to say I didnt buy THOSE pastries. I dont know if the flies ever got to my items but nothing a little nuking in the microwave couldnt solve! read more

There's a taco, tortas, y más separated by a glass wall. I mistakenly thought it was Dona's Tortas, but it's not. Fresh bread is only one of the ingredients in the torturas. I had La Bomba and it was awesome. We're back for huevas today!! read more

I stopped in here on my way somewhere in La Villita, after having seen several of La Baguette's other locations for years, but never having gone in. This location is especially interesting because the building is divided between the bakery on the right, and a restaurant on the left, serving tacos, platillos (full dinners), and specializing in tortas named after Mexican soccer teams (and the "Super Tortas" named after Mexican and international star players). As tempting as the tortas sounded, I only had time to grab some sweets, so I took my tray and tongs and scanned the full selection before making my decision. This location is smaller than the other locations of La Baguette that I've seen, but they still have the full selection of favorites. I got a couple churros, some bunuelos, and a few polvorones de nuez. All were very, very good. Being that it was a burning hot day and I wasn't going straight home, I didn't get anything out of the refrigerated case. I did look to see what they had, and might have actually gasped when I saw the lychee pastel de tres leches. I am very well-versed when it comes to tres leches, but have never seen lychee anywhere. Two of my favorite things in one place... it killed me not to be able to bring a slice home. I talked to a friend from out of town later that night about La Baguette, and it turns out that this is his favorite torta place in Chicago, and visits it every time he's here. I plan on coming back soon to try the tortas (La Memo Ochoa or La Rafa Marquez?), and am looking for an excuse to get the lychee tres leches. read more

Love traditional mexican sweet bread? Look no further than La Baquette. Wanna read spanglish....here goes lol. I love coming here because no matter what time of day you come, you will always see at least 2 or 3 carts full of sweet bread, still stuck on the baking trays. Now thats as fresh as it gets. Traditional mexican bread, biñuelos, puercos, empanadas de camote o de vanilla. Who can forget the infamous conchas de vanilla, chocolate o de fresa. Cookies n their mini cookies. Bolillos y pan de birote y pan para tortas in the plastic bins so that they stay soft throughout the day. Tambien tienen pasteles de flan, chocolate y el famoso tres leches sabor original y de chocolate. Tambien hacen pasteles para cumpleanos y tienen pasteles ya listos para levantar. A mi no me gusta el whipcream y por eso no me gusta los pasteles de aqui pero cada quien su gusto. Siempre ay churros y churros rellenados de fresa, chocolate y de vanilla. Tambien ay cafe a la entrada de la panederia. Plenty of parking and the women there are always very attentive. **prices have increased dramatically within the last year but still economical.** read more

A friend brought me to La Baguette, and I cannot thank him enough. They have a great selection of freshly baked Mexican breads, pastries, and cakes. I ended up leaving with 6 items for $4.50! I will not do a diservice and butcher the names of each pastry, but I can speak to each being delicious! Note: $5 min for credit cards The tortas offered at the restaurant looked delicious. A great stop when passing through or visiting the Little Village. read more

I was craving some Mexican for lunch, so a friend suggested I pick up a "Torta". The place he sent me to was in a strip mall off of 26th and Kedzie. I don't read or speak Spanish, so I just pointed at a Torta that looked good. I still don't know what was inside the sandwich, but it was delicious. They also provide some green salsa which was spectacular on the sandwich. This place is a must try if your ever in the area. read more

Bought bread and a gallon of milk from this location. We got home and my mother and I pour ourself a glass we drank it and it was the most disgusting thing I have ever had in my life!!! We check the date and it is one day old but extremely spoiled, it was already curdling. We took the milk back to be met with horrible customer service. There was a younger employee that had the nerve to tell me "the worst that can happen is that you get diarrhea" . I don't understand how milk that is only a day old was that spoiled... read more

Years ago, someone brought a tres leches cake from La Baguette to a party and I loved it! It was the first time I tried tres leches, and I was instantly hooked. This is the original location for La Baguette, which has branched out to several other locations in Chicago. It's a Mexican bakery with everything from bread to Mexican pastries to birthday cakes. But definitely try their tres leches cake. read more

I was in the neighborhood, and thought I'd stop by for Mexican sweet treats. This bakery is big and has a decent selection of goodies, but it's not one of the better ones around. They have way more cookies than I've seen at other bakeries, and well...I just don't go to bakeries looking for a good cookie. They have a few sizes of "bolillos" which are a staple at bakeries, so that's nice, and they have a loaded glass case with cakes and brownies and other fancy looking desserts. The breads, croissants, and donuts all look good and taste fresh. The workers, though, are kind of awkward and probably not happy to be there. At least, that's what I got. I smile and said "buenos dias" only to get a grimaces in return. One worker decided she was going to mop through me instead of just waiting three seconds for me to get out of the way. The cashier was pleasant, but just couldn't keep her eyes off off the novela on the television above. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here again. Considering the neighborhood, there's bound to be a better bakery close by. read more

i love this bakery. every time i make a trip to chicago, i make sure i come get my dosage of mexican sweet bread. it is so much cheaper than in philly. never disappointed. i wish i could live across the street. read more

This is one of the first places I stop when I am in Chicago.... in fact, sometimes it is my REASON for going to Chicago! I get a craving for the little butter cookies with the sprinkles on top! I love wandering from rack to rack with my tray and tongs and picking out all the wonderful Mexican bakery I can carry. As others have said, the Pastel Tres Leches is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G! The store is spotless, bright and well stocked all hours of the day. Be sure to ask for your items in a box instead of bags. You'll have to pay a minimum amount for boxes, but it worth not getting your cookies crumbled! The parking lot is shared with other businesses in the strip mall next to it and it can be challenging to find a spot. KEEP TRYING! read more

Bad service. Cashier who took order did not even relay the information to the cook correctly. The carne sada was void from any flavor other than being over salty. I came at an early time, thus no excuse for both mediocre food, and mediocre service. read more

Don't go unless you want your cake screwed up. When my sister-in-law ordered my son's BIRTHDAY cake, you expect it to say "HAPPY BIRTHDAY". Well ours didn't. It only had his name on it. When we asked why, they said there was no room to add it. So by this point there is not much to do but take the cake as is cause the party is waiting for it. Now why ask what you want put onto your cake when it's not even done right. Either they're stupid or just brain dead. In that case I will be taking my business else where. Where the people at least have brains and do it as you asked for it to be done. read more

I had bad experience here I bought 3 leches cake here on Sunday July 31 around 5pm I paid and then decided to buy some cookies and bread the cashier kept swiping my card and it's not going through I asked why and her response was oh my machine froze so she decided to unplug da machine and swipe again and finally it went through and she gave me a receipt. It took me like 10 min to get home in my car with the AC on. I got home put the cake in the refrigerator right away. At around 9 we cut the cake and give the kids some slices first then the adults but the kids came back and said this cake is no good we don't like it. I said fine they might not like it. I decided to eat my daughter's piece and the cake was spoiled. I called the bakery immediately to let them know I spoke with Elena and she was so rude to me but I wasn't even trying to fight. My point was to let them know and for them to apologize for what had happened but no she said bring the cake tomorrow and the manager will be here I said the cake is all over the garbage and she repeated her self if you have the cake bring it and the manager will be here tomorrow. I didn't want to argue so I didn't go the next day. But then Tuesday I check my bank account and the lady on Sunday charge me twice for my bread and cookies so I decided to go to the bakery like my bank recommended I explained to the young lady that was there what had happened on Sunday and she was the one in charge on that day she was nice and apologized for the inconvenience. Elena was listening to my complaint and was laughing wich was even more rude of her. They returned my money that they had charged extra but the manager Patty never got back to me on my cell after I left her a message. That was rude of her too but that's why they have employees like that cause they learn from who ever is on top. Very disappointed with this place so people make sure to ask when was the cake made before you buy one! read more
