Lost Larson (Andersonville)

Simply amazing treats. The Afternoon Tea Buns and the Cinnamon Rolls are specific favorites. But everything is delicious. Best bakery in Chicago.

Great pastries! A little expensive. The gentlemen who helped me was very knowledgeable and answered all of my questions about their different offerings.

Asked for two cardamom buns and a stollen. Got one bun and the stollen. Got home and shared the one bun. NO taste of cardamom at all. Very disappointed.

I'm surprised this has such high praise. The items we tried (5 different choices) were all pretty mediocre and overpriced, even for Chicago. The worst of the visit was the people though. Felt very unwelcome and as if we were a burden. Don't dare ask any questions.

Lost Larson has delicious pastries and really good coffee — they use Metric beans, so the quality is always great. It’s one of the coffee and bakery spots I often stop by since it’s close to where I live.

Nice small place. Small tables, little crowded inside, coffee is so-so, and I prefer taking pastries to go from the bakery. Pastries, I highly recommend! Always fresh and tasty, but make sure everything is sold out quickly.

Omg the afternoon tea bun ... I will be coming back for this every week. It's beyond great. So balanced, so delicate, so perfect...

Great selection. Their breakfast sandwich and princess cake are honestly the best items on the menu. If you haven't tried them, you are missing out! They have quite a wide variety of pastries (all very delicious). I wish they would do a couple of more eclectic ones on a regular basis... (but, maybe I just go too often). The staff is extremely helpful and very friendly :)

Can’t tell you about the food.

Went in to acquire a croissant bc I had heard good things on r/chicagofood. And someone was asking all the ingredients in the baked goods on display.
So I went to the cashier and asked to buy one croissant.

I was told no. The aforementioned situation was still happening so I said, I can’t pay here?

Told no.

So I left. I’m not going to beg to spend money.

If only one worker was there, I understand. But when someone is standing in front of a register?
I can go elsewhere.

Haven’t returned. Soured my interest.

The cinnamon roll is very good.

Best breakfast sandos in Chicago. And then there’s the pastries. Off the charts quality among every item, and the consistency is top-tier time and time and time again (yeah, we go there somewhat often!). Highly recommend.
