La Fournette is a must-visit restaurant known for its delicious, fresh pastries and bread. The staff is friendly, and the coffee is exceptional, not overly sweet. Customers highly recommend the sourdough bread, baguettes, and raspberry jam, as well as menu items like the Apricot Danish, Hazelnut Danish, and quiches. Vegetarian options include the Bri Panini, Veggie quiche, and an assortment of pastries and bread. This local business offers quality, honest food at reasonable prices, providing an authentic and delightful experience. According to recent reviews, La Fournette is a favorite among the French community, and their beignets, both plain and with raspberry filling, are particularly outstanding. The restaurant is also praised for its use of quality ingredients and authentic French atmosphere, with staff even speaking French in the background. Visitors describe it as feeling like a little piece of France in Chicago, with the smell of fresh bread and warm greetings adding to the welcoming vibe. The pastries are delicate and flaky, and the bread has a golden crust with a soft, airy interior. The atmosphere encourages slowing down, enjoying coffee, and savoring the moment, making it a true gem and favorite bakery in the city. The tuna sandwich and almond croissant are highly praised, and the coffee is noted as very good. Many recommend the chocolate pound cake slices, which melt in the mouth and pair well with berries and whipped cream for a perfect dessert.
