The lemon and chocolate cakes are delicious! Service was very nice and definitely much appreciated.

Bakery is delicious, love the cinnamon raisin bread. Our family has been going to Wolf's since the 60's.

Love this bakery. You can't go wrong with any flavor of pastry, cupcakes , donuts or more. Lemon fluff is so light. My personal fave.

Oh my goodness. The cheese coffee cake is amazing, their donuts amazing! Love supporting a local bakery that has more items at a much better quality then any big box grocery store chain could ever provide. The staff is always amazing. read more

Haven't been back since we moved out of the area lemon fluff cake is still the best love the cookies bite size so you don't feel as guilty eating them read more

Super friendly. Great service. I told the lady it was my first time in and she offered me a sample of their famous lemon cupcakes. Which was to die for. I also bought a danish which was so fresh and tasty. Highly recommend stopping in. read more

The only Fanish I ever had was store bought and stale, yuck. Then, one day, my boss and I were on our way to the office and saw this bakery. It was late in the day, and all they had left was Danish. I am now a convert. So delicious, fresh, flaky, loaded with fruit. We go to Wolfs on the regular now, everything is just so good, donuts are amazing. And the staff is friendly and efficient. A true neighborhood gem. read more

In all my 40 years of life I have always placed all fresh bakery orders from Roesers Bakery on the West Side of Chicago but we recently moved to the beautiful Evergreen Park and needed a birthday cake. So I went to my trusty yelp and found Wolf's Bakery. I arrived 830am placed my order (easy peasy) paid and was told it would be ready on the date and time I requested. Pick up was also easy peasy the cake itself was beautiful, the taste was good and it was a hit at the party. The price was right and the service friendly. ALSO the neighbors in the area are great, I heard really good things about the lemon fluff cake as I was leaving another customer overheard me talking about lemon fluff and actually offered me once of her lemon fluff cupcakes and it was DELISH. read more

The pastries, donuts and cakes are made with quality ingredients. The taste and texture of each were absolutely amazing!

Delicious lemon filled cake with buttercream frosting. Beautifully decorated, and the staff was great to work with. Thanks Wolfs Bakery for great customer service. Carol S of Merrionette Park read more

Decided to try it out since we weren't too far one day. It can get dangerous with so many options. I decided on some cupcakes, pastries and a brownie. Everything was moist and good, but I think most of pastries were a bit too sweet. I also wished they would put prices by the items. You can easily overspend here. read more

Evidently this bakery has been in Beverly forever and with good reason. The pastries are delicious, fresh and the service is great. I bought cookies and cupcakes but heard later the lemon cake was their signature dessert. I will definitely go back. read more

My brother-in-law worships this bakery. My wife and her two brothers each have their favorite bakeries. Being a native Texican I never understood the Chicago native's attachment to neighborhood bakeries. Now, after sampling the product from Wolf's I understand why this is brother-in-law's favorite. Outstanding bakery products. I even managed to return to Texas with their rye bread. I'm deeply hooked!! read more

Great lemon cake! The best! Doesn't last for long, either. Bread and pastries are also very good.

I didn't visit the actual store I ate some of their German Chocolate Cake that someone brought to the airport. It was good and it was different than other German Chocolate Cake I've had in the past. In the future I might stop by there, it's not far from where I reside. I would like to see what cakes are sold by the slice before buying the whole cake. read more

Very disappointed. $2.40 for one jelly donut? I can get two jelly donuts at Weber's Bakery for $2.40

We love all their items from butter crust rolls, to famous Lemon Fluff and the Atomic cake is made with moist cake and fresh fruits! Recently we had our grandsons construction cake for his 3rd birthday. As you can see he is thrilled. It was a 1/2 sheet, double layered moist yellow cake with fudge frosting in middle and on top. All The little kids had clean plates. Usually they leave the frosting behind but not this cake. Not one piece left over! Oh and try the donut holes. You will crave them. Everything is delicious!!! read more

I love their Lemon Fluff Cake and cupcakes. I ordered them ahead of time and they were ready when I got there. I will definitely go there again. read more

Saurkraut rye is great, cookies are great but pricey. Packis are very good to. Very busy and sells out early.

I ordered a cannoli cake for a baby shower in February and it was wonderful!! Everyone said how delicious it was. I will be coming here for more sweets in the future! read more

Yet another spot that is considered a staple; if you live out this way, it is expected that you frequent the place. I like it. It's good, stuff is fresh. Sometimes too crowded for my tolerance but I make the occasional trip for the boyfriend's sake ; ) read more

I've picked up pastries from here a couple of times before writing this review and everything has been super FRESH every time. I ordered an atomic cake for my moms birthday and everyone loved it and kept asking me where it was from because it tasted freshly made. read more

Great quick service from very attentive staff. All the delicious smelling baked goods make it very hard to choose what to buy!

First time ordering a birthday cake here and I must admit the choice of cake picked was the lemon fluff and it was perfect for my sweet tooth. It was fluff and the creamer was a delightful lemon favor. I still have to try more of there goodies. read more

Came here on a Thursday afternoon on a week where I was committed to trying all major bakeries in the area. The sweet aroma when you walk in is irresistible. Make sure you grab a number when you walk in! They have several cases. One with mini Italian/butter cookies, they have several cupcakes, some muffins (all normal sized), mini cupcakes as well, whole coffee cakes and danish coffee cakes... and the best part: sweet rolls in so many flavors. The woman behind the counter could not have been friendlier. Obviously I was overwhelmed with the choices available. She was kind enough to recommend the almond sweet roll but sadly I'm allergic. Instead she recommended the cinnamon raisin sweet roll which I happily agreed to. The roll is sweet, but not overly so. It has a great light fluffy texture and the cinnamon flavor is not overpowering (which it sometimes can be). Very good. Will be back. read more

Very happy with the service and quality of their baked goods I think I will be purchasing my daughters bday cakes from there this year you get two thumbs up from me. Since my initial visit I've yet to purchase anything there that I didn't like. the rainbow atomic cake is amazing. read more

Great bakery and the only place you can get the Dressel whipped cream cake. One of the last few standing older bakeries in town that makes delicious baked goods like homemade. Also famously known for their delicious lemon fluff cake. Once you go, you will return. read more

An amazing gem in Evergreen Park always fresh and all the girls are great ! I have been coming here since I was a little boy in Mt. Greenwood . read more

When we called to tell them that we might be two minutes late after they close they were very rude on the phone and said we would get nothing. When we got there we told them they were rude on the phone and they said that none of there workers talked to us. They tried to lie to us and there service was simply horrible. I hope no one spends there money on this place read more

EVERYTHING HERE IS AMAZING! The staff is very kind and helpful. There are so many different treats to choose from and they are all delicious. I've never liked cake until I tried Wolf's recipe! The Donuts here are life changing. I've never tasted a better donut, seriously. It's a secret recipe brought from overseas that I will never figure out! Classic old school recipes that stand the test of time! :) read more

As a native Chicagoan now living on the coast, I still go here every time I'm back in town. Coffee cake like nowhere else and last time I treated my family to a variety of delicious cookies. The best! read more

It's good! Nothing like mind blowingly unique or new but good quality old school stuff. The lemon cake which is their speciality does not disappoint. Everything is fresh and tasty and maybe just a tad on the sweet side. They are very hospitable and welcoming. I'd definitely go back again. read more

Arrived at bakery on Saturday October 5th at 6:00 A.M. Cold cherry puff an glaze donut that were supposedly baked in a warm kitchen. Did not taste fresh threw in the trash. Will not return. read more

Tried to do the curbside pickup option and was on hold for so long we decided to go in, which is not ideal with everything going on. Product is good, just not happy with the process. The staff seemed grouchy with one another. read more

After hearing so much about the little cupcakes and lemon cakes that everyone raved about online-- I decided to go to the bakery myself, when I was looking for bakeries for birthday cakes for a relative-- unfortunately there was a huge sanitation problem in the bakery as soon as we entered, there was a weird sour-y smell of dirty-mop-water that permeated the entire bakery and floors, that made me feel sick to my stomach, and I was not the only one in the group to notice-- I thought back to the times that a coworker brought in baked goods from Wolf's wondering if it smelled like this when they bought snacks for our meetings and just thinking about it made it (the nausea) even worse... I went to the display to see if the smell was everywhere or just by the door, and it was allover the bakery- I basically held my breath the entire time-- and the workers acted like they couldn't smell a thing-- when we inquired, they said the floors were just cleaned, so it may smell a little wet-- wet and dirty are two different things-- It smelled like dirty-mop-water and was literally like standing next to an open garbage bin-- nobody ordered anything we all left -very upset. It's not that difficult to change the bucket-water when cleaning and to sanitize with bleach or pinesol... I know a few reviewers complained about a 'bleach-y' smell-- I wish that was the case here, as bleachy or minty are very different from dirty and garbage-y... I know 1 or 2 people who own small restaurants (but-not bakeries) and if the employees used dirty water to clean - or if it smelled like that, for any reason, everyone would be fired for not meeting basic hygiene standards... I don't know anyone who would want to eat food in a smelly environment (or from an unsanitary establishment)-- Maybe they were having a bad day, but it really reeked-- Awful. TwoStars (the food before I actually went myself was quite tasty) but Grade F--minusMinus for (insert sarcasm at) health code violations and clearly contributing to the coronavirus quarantine... read more

Very good bakery, around for many years. I highly recommend. 5/5 stars.

Two words: Atomic Cake. This cake has everything in it a cake lover could want. Strawberries, bananas, a thin layer of chocolate, yellow cake, chocolate cake, and a delectable topping of whipped cream. Get me a glass of cold milk, and I'm in sugar heaven! And at only $20 for the entire cake, a great deal! Of course, they also have all the bakery staples as well. Delicious donuts, a small assortment of French Pastries, wedding cakes, cupcakes, and mouth wateringly delicious rye bread (with or without caraway seeds), and one of the biggest assortment of tea cookies I have ever seen. (One whole section of the bakery is dedicated to these alone.) Having been in the neighborhood forever, this place is frequented by generations of area residents. Not exactly in my neck of the woods anymore, but I will make the trip for the Atomic Cake alone. The staff is very helpful, and there is one woman working there, who I think has been working there since I used to come in here when I was a kid. All in all my absolute favorite bakery! read more

Great ole fashioned bakery. The ladies here have a smile and an overall awesome approach to delivering or providing you with excellent service and tasty treats. I went there for donuts, but need up with the best walnut coffee cake!! Yummy... Thanks Wolf's Bakery You have stood the test of time!! read more

I decided to purchase my daughter's birthday cake from here because of the rave reviews from my fellow Yelpers. The customer service is exceptional and the prices are reasonable. I ordered the Atomic Cake which was delicious and the fruit was very fresh. I also ordered other enticing baked goods which were also delicious. None of the items were overwhelmingly sweet which is a plus in my book. They were just right. The presentation of the items make you want to try them out. I'm glad I looked on Yelp to find my new favorite bakery. Thanks Yelpers and Wolf's! read more

I'm on a mission to hit a few tasty bakeries/donut shops during my clinical rotation at Christ hospital this winter, so Wolf's was my first stop. I came in on Friday afternoon around 430-ish and was helped right away, puchasing a red velvet and lemon fluff cupcakes, as well as a smiley face cookie. The lemon fluff was absolutely delicious!! I ate it the afternoon after I bought it, and it was light, fluffy, sweet but not overly so...just yummy. The man enjoyed his red velvet and we both split the smiley face cookie, which was buttery and tasty. I will definitely be back for that lemon fluff! read more
