Broadway Cafe isn’t just a place to grab a pastry—it’s an adventure waiting to unfold. My journey began with a warm welcome from Samar, the spirited guide to this treasure trove of baked delights. As I scanned the display of tempting creations, Samar pointed out what would soon become the pinnacle of my dessert escapades: a towering masterpiece that redefined what a cannoli could be.
This wasn’t your average pastry. The top layer, a crisp cannoli shell filled with luscious custard, vanilla, and white chocolate cream, stood like the peak of a culinary mountain daring me to conquer it. Beneath it, a base so soft and rich it could have been mistaken for a cloud spun from sugar. Each bite was a thrilling expedition, as flavors burst like fireworks, keeping my taste buds on their toes.
But let me tell you, it wasn’t just the dessert that made the experience so unforgettable. The cafe exuded an old-world charm blended seamlessly with a modern flair. The whole place felt like a secret portal, whisking me away from the bustling streets of Chicago into a realm where pastries are not just food—they’re art.
Samar, with the enthusiasm of a pastry connoisseur and the wit of a stand-up comedian, ensured that every moment was as entertaining as it was delicious. The energy in the air was contagious, making it impossible not to laugh, savor, and let the adventure take its course.
If you’re ever in Chicago, skip the tourist traps. Broadway Cafe is where the real thrill lies—where a simple pastry becomes a tale of discovery, indulgence, and joy. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you, and your soul will come back for more.

Very clean and service was excellent. Unfortunately I tried the tiramisu pastry and I'm not sure they've ever tried tiramisu before because it was dissimilar from any tiramisu I've ever had.

I recently visited Broadway and it’s now my go-to spot for baked goods and coffee. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, perfect for relaxing or catching up with friends. The staff is friendly and always ready with great recommendations.
Their pastries are fresh and incredibly delicious – from the classic croissants to the more unique options, every item feels like it's been made with care. The coffee is strong and pairs perfectly with the sweets, making it ideal for a morning pick-me-up or an afternoon treat. I also appreciate their attention to detail in presentation; everything is served beautifully!
Highly recommend Broadway for anyone looking to enjoy high-quality pastries and coffee in a cozy setting."
Let me know if you'd like any tweaks to fit a specific bakery or focus on particular items!
