It's a real old school bakery with the best doughnuts. I would weigh 300 lbs if I lived nearby. Great counter help as well! read more

Stopped in on a whim after a protest a few weeks ago to pick up some goodies. I got a few pastries/donuts and slices of cheesecake. I'm super picky with my cheesecake but theirs was AMAZING! The strawberry one is 15/10 easily lol While in there I saw a few people pick up their cakes and they looked great! Will definitely be trying for our next birthday. read more

Scrumptious! The apple slices are absolutely delicious. Apple pie in bottom , apple pie crust a with light frosting on top & pure deliciousness in the middle( apple filling). A good balance with the pie filling. Definitely can see that as a MEGA Hit over the holidays. The cinnamon rolls, so good. I use to stop in here on the way downtown, before I got onto the Blue line to work; back in early 2000's. So happy they are still around and continue to bake delicious goodies for the community . thank you read more

My family and I have been coming here for decades, I love the warmth you feel when you walk through the doors. We personally love everything with cherries, the pecan coffee cake, the almond claws, and my kids devour the brownies and apple bars. Thanks for being such a gem in south Oak Park! read more

I was craving an old-school bakery Danish. Theirs did not disappoint. Street parking is good depending on the time of day when you visit. Even midday they still have several items to choose from. My office is in Cicero but this is a quick jump off I290 and service is quick. read more

Called everywhere trying to book a cake for my dad's birthday and it just felt as if nobody wanted the business-- until we called oak park bakery. They answered the phone (so far so good) Agreed to provide the type of cake that I wanted (wow!) We ordered and paid and put our faith in them. Picked it up... it looked beautiful. Now the ultimate test : will my chocolate obsessed dad love the cake? Absolutely! 20/20 beautiful and delicious. read more

Love this tiny bakery cuz it's not too far me & the products they serve are very delightful. Their prices are pretty reasonable as well so if you plan on visiting during the morning hours you'll be sure to find a line forming outside the building. Definitely recommend this place for all your pastry needs! read more

I've been told countless times to visit this bakery, but never made it out to Oak Park until finally this past weekend. My First visit to this bakery was late on a Saturday (2pm, and they close at 4pm), and the fact that they had very little left over is a testament to how much they sell out early in the day. We purchased two Smiley Cookies, and wow was it so nice!! simple butter sugar cookie with frosting and a chocolate smile, but it was perfect with coffee! Will definitely come back to try their famous strawberry coffee cake one of these days! It just keeps selling out so quickly read more

Great place, and it's close to home! Too bad they don't have raspberry pie, Bakers Square had it a few years ago. And it was one of the best pies I ever had, it's also a plus that they have low prices compared to other bakeries. 4.5 out of 5! read more

Good parking Great service and great donuts ,coffee cake will return. Nice and clean.

Tried a little bit of everything except for the coffee cake. Everything was fantastic and the staff was so friendly. I'll definitely be back for the coffee cake! read more

This bakery is probably one of few authentic, non bakery chains left in the area. The pastries are delectable and fresh. I do not go often because I do not have the metabolism of my 20 year old self, but once a month I like to treat myself to these delicious goodies. read more

They have some good pastries and donuts, but I remember my visits here as being just ok. I have not tried their cakes. If you're looking to get good donuts, I recommend Firecakes. read more

It's a decent bakery, but it's too expensive for my once and a while splurge for my co-workers. I paid $14 for a Rasbery Coffee Cake. I know everything has gone up, but I can get a similar Coffee Cake a Jewel for $6 or $7 when they're not on sale. Spare me that this one is worth so much more because it's local. It's a coffee cake. I cannot afford $14 for a Coffee Cake unless it also comes with Coffee. read more

I always thought this bakery was just your run of the mill generic bakery where everything is made with shortening and doesn't have a lot of flavor. Not so. I started working at a school in Oak Park and people would bring their products in on Fridays. They use BUTTER!! Lots of it. Their coffee cake is to die for. I have tried all flavors of coffee cakes, their butter cookies and a regular cookie and it is all so good. I don't know anyone who makes a better coffee cake. You have to either go early or call and order because they sell out fast. If you go in the afternoon you might just be looking at nothing but crumbs. read more

Best FRESH donuts ever!! They have all of the chains beat on donut authenticity. Thank you!

I stopped in on my way to the train to work and grabbed a coffee cake to share with my coworkers and it was SO GOOD!!! The staff was very friendly as well. I'll definitely be back to try some of the cheesecake I saw in the case some time soon! read more

Great fresh bakery! Get there early or you'll miss out. I make sure to come for my weekly baked goods supply. They have great cakes, doughnuts, cookies, coffee cakes and cup cakes. They are also very appreciative that I shop local and support small business. read more

The donuts were very good! The pumpkin spiced cake donuts were fantastic. The service was excellent.

We needed something sweet to start our trip to Mackinac Island. Oak Park Bakery did not disappoint!

While the baked goods are out of this world and so delicious the service left a lot to be desired. The older person tending to me was nice and fulfilled my order, however the younger plus sized person was very cold and dismissive. They never greeted me or acknowledged my presence. They showed no interest in helping me and I honestly felt like I was being watched. This isn't the first time I've been treated this way and I think I'll find another bakery to spend my money in. read more

We found this bakery when we lived in Oak Park. We moved about 10 years ago but still make the drive to get the best coffee cakes we've ever found. Their cheese coffee cake and pecan coffee cake are both just outrageously good. The potato bread, donuts and rolls are great too. read more

I've been a fan of Oak Park Bakery for years. Their nut coffee cakes are some of my favorite. So, when I decided to get married in Oak Park, I knew where I'd be getting my wedding cake. The bakery is easy to work with and pricing extremely reasonable; the hardest part is getting through because they're always busy. I got some basic info a while ago, so I had already decided what I wanted. Since we were doing an intimate ceremony, I wasn't looking for something large or stereotypically considered a wedding cake. What I ordered was a 1/4 sheet cake - chocolate cake, fresh strawberry center and whipped cream frosting. I gave them basic decorating instructions - festive colored frosting flowers in opposing corners. I was quite happy with the appearance and taste of the cake. The only hiccup was when my friend picked up our cake. Initially, they couldn't find the order, but when she asked them to take a second look, they found it. read more

As the city of Chicago getting a massive tourist traffic from all around the globe, Rosa J. and her hubby have decided to retreat themselves to Oak Park for some spring/summer fun. We both like old-fashioned, historic bakeries around town, Oak Park Bakery is located less than a block south of the CTA Oak Park Blue Line station. Please exit the train station through the Oak Park Ave. side. It's tiny place with some enticing cupcakes by the windows, along with cakes, cookies, donuts, and bread to make the entire bakery look like a heaven for sweet-toothed individuals! We went with the quarter (1/4) pound of assortment cookies. You can hand-pick the varieties, but the nice young lady saved us some work by choosing the popular kinds for us. We paid less than $3 for eight (8) pieces of cookies. They do have a minimum cap for using a debit or a credit card, which is $5. My recommendation is to have some cash on hand because I realized other items were reasonably-priced as well. There's a PNC bank ATM inside of the Oak Park Blue Line station if PNC is your primary bank or if you don't mind paying for the surcharge. We munched couple pieces; they were pretty delicious. Those cookies might not look fancy, but there were one of the most down-to-earth things you could find in this country. Food with unpretentious embellishment, you can say it's old-spirited Americana. I always enjoy visiting Oak Park, for her relative serenity and peacefulness the city of Chicago lacks on spring weekends. I bet I will be coming this way some time soon. read more

AMAZING! Gorgeous and delicious wedding cake! I live in Arizona and had my wedding in Oak Park last night. Calling from Arizona and planning the wedding cake was very easy! Anthony is incredible and started planning my wedding cake months before the event. It turned out fantastic AND tasted so good! There's no leftovers!!! I couldn't be happier. I heard I also need to try their donuts read more

Ordered cake for a baby shower 2 days before the event, after I was told "no. We're all booked for the weekend" by their local competitor. I'm glad they did because this was the best cake I have tasted in a long while! Moist sponge. Creamy whipped cream frosting. Fresh fruit filling. The mommy to be loved it! Taste like the birthday cake I used to have as a child. I'm glad the other place "kicked me out" because I wound up with the better choice! The pastries are good too! Staff is super nice! Highly recommend. read more
