Amazing donuts!!…read more Being new to the area I chose to go local for national donut day and landed on duck, so glad I did! Walking in they were super kind and friendly, and the smell of fresh donuts in the air is a great way to start the day. They let me know the specials of the day and gave me some suggestions, even gave me a free donut for the day! I like to have some options so I went with a half dozen, my favorite were maple bacon, strawberry shortcake and blueberry streusel! I also grabbed a salted Carmel cold brew with it which was a nice addition! The donuts were prepared right in front of me, sooo great to see and there's nothing better than being handed a warm box of treats to take home! Will be returning soon!!!!

I came here a few days ago after their usual morning rush. I was in the mood for donuts and didn't…read morewant the usual generic Dunkin or Krispy Kreme and saw that I was closest to this spot, so I was like, why not? It's located in a tiny row of storefronts with a single strip of shared parking spaces. Inside, it felt warm and inviting with a few seats by the window. The displays with donuts were mostly empty except with a select few still left over. It's cool that they offer both yeast and cake donuts to choose from. I ended up getting a half dozen with red velvet frosted, cherry glazed, regular glazed, lemon filled jelly donut, and two more that I can't recall. And I got this interesting chocolate milk that had a good amount of protein in it too. Donuts and milk! The donuts tasted pretty good. A good combination of airiness and fluffy and seemed to be fully cooked through. That lemon filled jelly donut was pretty hefty too; definitely one of the heaviest donuts I've ever had...lol As I was checking out, the lady behind the counter informed me this particular store has been going strong for more than 40 years, which is damn impressive!! I'll definitely be coming back here for more delicious donuts!

My Hubby & I love Libertyville. We often go there to eat at different places. I have a fav thrift…read morestore I shop at. So, driving there & back we always notice the different places to get lunch, ice cream, candy & more. A very pleasant lady was there to take care of us. But the place smelled very funky. That should have warned us. We bought a couple of donuts & took them on the road back home with us. They were not fresh & did not taste good. I tried around half & threw it away. We will not go there again. I have had store bought donuts that were great & fresh. The donuts seemed as if they were there for a couple of days. So, we won't go back. There are way too many other great places to eat at & to just get treats. It is a sad shame.

The friendly guy at the counter said that they are changing their name as per the new storefront sign. This is a casual Mexican bakery with great prices. Loved all food items that I chose & I didn't chose his recommendations so those might even be better. He recommended items with ginger, coconut & traditional delights. We also did not warm up the pastries so that is how delicious the bakery items were Everything was so fresh tasting & hit the spot. I appreciate that things were not overly sweet. Recommended items: -Pineapple empanadas. -This square custard tart with real blueberries in it. -Strawberry churros. I look forward to hikes that will lead me back down this way & trying more yummy items.

I feel like it was hard to review this place. I had read so many great reviews that maybe I went in…read morewith too high of expectations. To start, there were way more bakery items here than I expected! It was pretty overwhelming, making it difficult to decide what to get (and to figure out what is good). I picked up a variety of different treats: tres leches cake, flan, churros, concha bread, and rice pudding empanada. The results were mixed. As everyone has said, the tres leches cake is superb and is probably the highlight of what they make at this bakery. The other standout was the rice pudding empanada. There are no signs that say what the different pastries are so we picked it out and took a chance. It ended up being a pleasant surprise. Just perfectly sweet. But, it would be nice if they could put up signs so customers can decide what they want without having to ask staff. The churros were pretty hard and stale by the time we got them in the middle of the day. Perhaps they taste better when they are fresh. Otherwise, would not recommend. The concha bread was huge and super soft! But overall, the flavor was light and was not as sweet as I would have liked. The flan I did not mind, but my family thought it was way too firm. Overall, this bakery was too far out of my way to come back to. There were some standout items, but there were also a lot of other items that were pretty lackluster.

There are many things on the winter menu that I would love to try next time I am back. The scone was huge and very flavorful. And the brown butter latte was a nice warm treat on a cold Chicago morning. The employees behind the counter were nice and friendly and helped me decide my drink for the morning. It was between the miso caramel latte or the brown butter latte, and I went with the brown butter. Nice chill coffee spot with great options. They have a nice cozy couch in the front and heard they have a nice big sitting area in the back that I didn't have time to check out. Til next time!

But as the restaurant has gained in popularity, service during peak hours can get iffy. Our server this morning was friendly but she and almost every other employee looked slammed. We didn't mind waiting for our food but it definitely took longer this morning. It may have been the perfect morning weather colliding with a long weekend, but we had to flag someone down for syrup and butter for the pancakes. Despite a less than amazing experience, we still love Buttermilk.

Holcomb Hollow has consistently had treats that he can safely eat and enjoy. They have since provided him with his first ever brownie, pumpkin pie, and donut. As a food allergy mom, nothing beats having your kid feel "normal" and have a safe alternative at an event, party, etc. we've really appreciated the range of options HH offers, and some of their specialty items that they over over different holidays. The ladies are always kind to look up the ingredient list for me when I pick up from the bakery to confirm that items are safe. There are MANY local places that offer HH treats, and we've enjoyed seeking them out whenever we can.

I have travelled a lot to include New York City, so my comparison will be against those. The bagels miss. The crisp chewy texture just isn't there. The everything bagel was too salty. The inside of the bagels are fine... not great, fine. The egg, sausage and bacon are cooked fresh so that is a huge plus. The interior is nice. It is open, and with the separation of the ordering and dining areas, it helps with the noise. They seem to do a lot of carry out as you'd expect. The service is counter service. Anyway, for the area it is a decent bagel. If you are looking for a New York bagel, this isn't it.

Teens serving your bagels like an unorganized shop. I feel my first meal of the day should be more calm and well made not undercooked. I even over heard them passing some comments The bagels were under cooked with hardly any cream cheese. The only good thing was cream cheese was good. Orange juice was nice and cold. The only good thing about this place was the murals on the walls and the study room.
