50 Best Bakeries near Bridgeview

“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.“

“Very appropriate sweat content of sweets. Not too sweat or drenched in syrup. Loved the soft Kunafae and different Baklava varieties. Wish got to know the specific names to mention but any type of Baklava will be a safe bet. Will recommend.“

“Where do I start , the honesty ,the quality, the friendly/respect walking in the store .
Or the fact that you can’t find a better hala Arab store and staff this Great . My family and I have Been coming to this store for over 20 year . The meat , chicken ,baked goods ,bread and produce is always fresh . Hands down hands down #1 over all store & mainly staff that make the store great , they care and that’s what matter .“

“They have the best sweets I have ever tasted even after a long period of time sitting in my cabinet. Baklava is too delicious, you just have to try it. Everything they make is always with the best ingredients in mind and you taste it in the quality.“

“In the area for the first time, this strip mall is full of goodies.

We stopped after dinner at Albasha to satisfy our sweet tooth and it was not disappointing at all.

They have an impressive display of choices and all look delicious. We had a hard time selecting so we bought a bunch of things -we overdid it, and that is okay as I had some for breakfast for the next few days - Lucky me

I had Knafeh for the first time, it was delicious, and a few different types of baklava. I cannot name each mouth-watering morsel that we ordered - you cannot go wrong with whatever you select.

The service was very friendly and helpful.“

“HOLY HEAVENS!!!! Just tried Crave at the Joliet location for the first time and let me tell YOU - you’re missing out if you haven’t tried it! Ordered a couple cookies and the Dubai strawberry cup and it’s literally everything! Cookies have the perfect sweetness, a comfort cookie for sure. The Dubai strawberry cup?? I made my husband turn around to get a second cause there was no way I was sharing mine! Dixie was so sweet! She was super informative with the cookie questions we had, and she packed a mean strawberry cup! Shout out to Dixie! Can’t wait for our next trip to Crave. Obsessed with the traveling trainer as well. Over all - cookies and employees are absolutely wonderful!!!“

“There conchas are always fresh“

“Very good best smoothie iv ever had. Also very friendly staff“

“I tried coconut tres leches and mango, both are really good but coconut takes the crown, they taste like a traditional Mexican cake, owner is super friendly, clean place! Really recommend this place. The only thing or issue for me for not for all people, the cake was a little sweet for me! Support local business“

“So, Babe had a taste for a blueberry muffin. We decided to stop in here. They did not have any muffins available at the moment BUT they had a blueberry donut. Needless to say, we walked out with a dozen assorted donuts. I've already eaten 3 and my taste buds are EXTREMELY satisfied 😍 The staff was super friendly and the establishment was very clean. Everything looked so delicious. I know we'll definitely go back again to try other pastries 😀 $21 for a dozen donuts. Definitely worth supporting a small business as opposed to Dunkin Donuts. . This place makes their donuts with love 💕 Well worth it 💕“

“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.“

“Delicious! Lived up to the hype!! The staff greeted us with genuine smiles and offered excellent recommendations. Service was swift but never rushed, striking the perfect balance! The staff presented us with our orders before handing us the best cookies I’ve had in a long time. Go check them out, they never disappoint!!“

“A hidden gem of a chinese bakery in Bridgeport/McKinley area. They have a great variety of Cantonese buns and other pastries. The food reminds me of how real old school Cantonese buns should taste. Better than the big bakeries in Chinatown. These are fresh and taste like they are made with quality ingredients. The prices are reasonable and cheap compared to the big names in Chinatown. Highly recommend you give them a try. Seating is limited to 4 window counters. Cash is preferred but credit cards requires 4% transaction fee.“

“The best cookies that I tried!
When I went for the first time I needed a seller because this work like self service, they help me and were so kind. Cookies are expensive but so delicious. The store is too small and it’s confuse because there are two lines, one for order and one for pickup, because of the size of the store it’s kind a mess“

“Today, 20 Sep my daughter brought home a dozen chocolate donuts. I was shocked when I opened the box. Apparently your bakery is downsizing the donuts. Much smaller and worse of all , what happened to the chocolate coating on the donuts. Did you run out? They use to be smothered with chocolate. Very disappointed.“

“Mashallah, may God bless you, may God grant you success and grant you truly the best kunafa I have tried so far in America, and I was in Texas and California. God willing, it will go to the top, my helper ❤️
🇵🇸🕊️✌️“

“Best eggplant perm sandwich ever!“

“The food is just incredible! I am speechless“

“I was very pleased with Auntie Anne's location upstairs in North Riverside Mall, Store number 1299. The staff is super kind and very attentive. I noticed the manager was on top of having all products fresh and ready to serve to customers, and the ladies working on the floor made me feel comfortable in selecting a freshly baked pretzel.“

“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!!“

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

“The bread has a very delicious flavor, the cuernitos con cajeta, delicious. And the shells, not to mention very delicious. The guava stuffed bread is definitely not recommended, guava has no flavor and is definitely not guava. I recommend the conchitas and the cuernitos con cajeta. The person who attended us was very friendly.“

“Beverly Bakery has become a MUST every time we are in the area! The food is incredible, the atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff is so friendly. The crème brûlée French toast with strawberries is easily the BEST French toast I have everrrrrr had! I love the fresh brewed coffee and the wide selection of coffee beans to take home that they will even grind up for you. I would recommend giving Beverly bakery a try to anyone looking for a great breakfast in the area.“

“I stopped in to see what was available. Bought a variety of cupcakes. They were delicious. I have to go back and get some cheesecake ❤️“

“Cute, small bakery with a lot of different Mexican breads and pastries. When you go in, you grab a tray and a prong to grab the items you want. They also have more cookies and hot Churros at the register. The strawberry churro was amazing. The prices are very reasonable. I really enjoyed the savory cheese and jalapeno bread and the strawberry jam filled pastry.“

“Had a Ferrara 9" cake last week at a small 50th birthday celebration. Best layer cake ever experienced in my 77 years!“

“I ordered the chocolate chip, sugar cookies, and brownies. We had them delivered to our house. The packing was fabulous. No broken cookies or brownies. We tried the chocolate chip cookie and it had big chunks of chocolate and a very good flavor. It was a big cookie that could be shared by two people. We put the others in the freezer until Christmas.“

“We ordered my wedding cake from here, a specialty made multi-tiered baklava cheesecake - a truly stunning piece of art while tasting absolutely heavenly. It was the perfect end to a perfect night. We received multiple compliments from guests raving about how delicious the cake was. The owner is also a joy to work with. Can't recommend enough!!“

“I grew up in Western Springs, in a house on the “other side of the tracks”. Almost every Sunday, my father and I would go to Kirschbaum’s for a dozen donuts. Those donuts were sooo good.“

“This is the second time we have ordered from Sarah Ashley Bakery and they truly do a fantastic job! I ordered a one tier 1st birthday cake and custom cookies and with just explaining my vision over the phone, they hit it out of the park. The cake and cookies looked absolutely beautiful and was everything I wanted! Both the cake and cookies tasted delicious as well.“

“Drove 45 minutes and well worth the trip. I couldn’t choose…so I bought quiche, key lime, chocolate chess, chocolate cream and pecan pies. All fantastic, but the pecan is my absolute fave. Go here. Your taste buds will never forgive you if you don’t!“
