Bakeries near Blue Island

“First time here and so glad I gave this place a try. One of the most delicious bagels I have ever had. Prompt service even though they were very busy. Very cute decor inside. I will definitely pay another visit and try one of their coffees. I’m not really into desserts so I can’t rate their desserts but you can if you pay them a visit .“

“So happy that I found this bakery for my granddaughter’s 3rd birthday cake. I am out of state. It was helpful for me to be able to pay using a payment app and have my daughter pick the cake up. The owner was so kind and helpful. I told her what I wanted and she delivered on quality looks and taste. She went above and beyond in letting my daughter know certain details about the cake. We highly recommend using Blue Cottage Bakery. For reference, I ordered an 8 inch, 3 layer Dora cake.“

“I have ordered many cakes from them from birthdays to my wedding cake the cakes are always beautiful and absolutely delicious I would recommend anyone to order from them“

“what happened I have not been there in a while went there during Xmas season did not feel like Christmas at all there plus it looked dirty so disappointing it could use a good clean and some holiday cheer..selection was poor too very little festive mdse“

“I love the fresh food , reasonable prices and how polite and helpful the ladies are. I have been going to this bakery for over 18 years. I moved far from it, and I drive an hour to come buy from there.“

“Shout out for the perfect Pastries for my daughter’s shower!“

“It’s the atmosphere and the baked goods that got me! This place has such a warm feeling! Very welcoming and the baked foods are absolutely delicious! I highly recommend this business“

“It was our first time visiting this bakery, and we absolutely loved the experience. We were helped by the owner, who treated us like VIP customers—and we noticed he gave the same warm attention to the next customer who walked in. He was patient as we asked questions, incredibly knowledgeable, and even shared the story of how the café started. It truly feels like a community-oriented space, not just a bakery.

My mom ordered the hot chocolate, and after her first sip she literally gasped and whispered, “Oh, that’s good.” I had the red velvet brownie, which was rich, decadent, and perfectly moist. I enjoyed it over two days—warm on the first day and cold straight from the fridge the next—and it was amazing both ways.

The owner clearly knows what he’s doing. We’re hoping to return soon and would definitely recommend stopping by!“

“Crumble. Great tasting cookie, horrible for you. Not a fan of the Tinley Park location. Closed Sundays n then cookies are so thick they cook funny n get hard fast. Not like other locations alot thicker of a cookie. Ends up cooking funny due to the thickness as well. Makes it not as fresh like my normal crumble. Unless they were sitting due to the new everyday flavors. Which its about time crumble. Try the pink icing cookie, love it. Be ready for a sugar rush, possibly too much. I love it but not the best for you.“

“Extremely awesome customer service :-), and the choices of cupcakes are phenomenal, truly amazing. Definitely, definitely one of my spots to be busy. And I pray for them all the many many blessings to come their way, they truthfully deserve it.👏 🙏🏽🥰“

“I only order cakes from Creative Cakes. They are delicious and beautiful. There is nothing they cannot do. We use them for every occasion. We always get compliments on the cake.“

“Hidden gem, great food and even greater customer service. Found my new go-to spot. Highly recommend“

“Yesterday I took the Sourdough Breadmaking Class with Chef George at The Ancestral Oven and I just pulled an amazing loaf of bread out of my home oven 24 hours later! Chef George provided all the necessary instruction and supplies - including a lively starter - for students to start their own sourdough journey at home. The class included hands-on experience feeding the starter, as well as folding and shaping the dough. I had a great time at the class and can't wait to return to try out the breakfast and lunch menu at The Ancestral Oven Bakery and Cafe.“

“Very pleased with their service, end results! I love their Tres Leches Cake. Just right not too sweet just delicious and perfect. I got my baby shower cake from St Jude’s and my daughter 1st and 2nd birthday cake. Always happy with the theme! Thank you so much for your service. For any event I always keep them in mind.“

“The food is just incredible! I am speechless“

“Stopped in to give myself a birthday treat. Everything is so fresh and delicious It was hard to choose. I of curse had to have my lemon fluff cupcake, a pastry and who could say no to an apple slice. But the true treats are the lovely and kind ladies working the counter. I truly feel it’s not just because I patronize Wolf’s bakery - but they are genuinely kind and make you feel welcome. I love this bakery’s products and its staff. Happy Holidays!!“

“Forget the plane ticket — a trip to Acapulco Bakery is better than a vacation to Acapulco itself! 🌴🍩 One bite of their donuts and I was ready to trade in my beach chair for a pastry box. A flavor explosion that could wake up a sleepy mariachi band! 🎺😂

These donuts are pure happiness disguised as breakfast. Every bite feels like sunshine, good vibes, and a sugar rush all rolled into one. If you’re looking for paradise, skip the travel plans — just head to Acapulco Bakery and thank me later. Best. Donuts. Ever. 🙌“

“Thanks for the wonderful cake Cece! She put so much detail and thought into making my friends 40th Birthday Cake look beautiful. In addition to it being beautiful it was just as tasty! Everyone asked where I got the cake from. I plan on being a returning customer.“

“You know why I frequent Alwatan Bakery? Insha’Allah “God wills it” Their halal food is the best, I go there frequently for breakfast. I wouldn’t give that McDonald’s crap, or any other fast food to an abandoned starving stray dog on the street.“

“Loved how our son’s baptism cake turned out! It was delicious.“

“Wow - Sara delivered a magical cake for one of my client's 2-year birthday celebrations, and with just a few weeks notice. I can't thank her enough for being so thoughtful! Both the outside branding and inside cake colors were perfect matches to our new brand identity, and we had a great time shooting content to unveil the new brand on social. I highly recommend Windy City Baker for all of your cake needs!“

The portions are great. The restaurant itself is super cute! Ive had friends meet me there for food dates and they've enjoyed everything.“

“Habebh Sweets is an absolute gem! From the moment you walk in, you’re welcomed with warm hospitality and an amazing selection of fresh, authentic Middle Eastern desserts. Everything we tried was perfectly made—fresh, flavorful, and not overly sweet. You can truly taste the quality and care in every bite.

The staff was friendly, patient, and happy to help us choose, which made the experience even better. Whether you’re picking up something for guests or just treating yourself, Habebh Sweets never disappoints. Highly recommended—we’ll definitely be back!“

The cake was homemade by scratch and the Caramel was soooo delicious. I appreciate your Services and I will continue to do business with you from this point forward. Very Satisfied!“

“Omg!!! This place is too amazing to not try. The food is so fresh and super tasty. This location is my favorite one!! The way Amina and the rest of the staff recognize us it’s just so heartwarming, they make us feel like family. We are so happy when we’re here and leave even happier with a full belly. Thank you Amina and staff for an amazing experience as always! You guys are amazing! We travel an hour to eat here so that tells you how delicious the food is but the service makes it even better. We love you Baba Saj Oak Lawn“

“I’m so happy we went with this local bakery for our wedding cake. They made the cake exactly as the reference photos I provided. We asked for cannoli filling on the bottom layer and she offered Dubai pistachio on the top layer and the cake was delicious! They were great with communication when other bakeries failed to do so. I would use them again in a heartbeat. Their other pastries and desserts are very tasty as well. Affordable, amazing quality, and great service!“

“Attended their birthday celebration this morning and along with 49 others, won a free buntlet each month for a year! Great owners, made the event so fun! Have always loved their cakes, so decadent and the buntlets are perfect to give as gifts. 🎂 A Southside gem. 💎“
