What is there to say that hasn’t already been said? The coffee, pastries, and service is all 10/10. When there isn’t a line outside the door, I love coming here for a banana malt latte with cinnamon cold foam! Highly recommend if you’re walking around Wicker Park. The only downside is the prices are a bit high.

Over hyped and over priced treat the employees better! Choosing not to support a business owner who has a terrible temper.

Great pastries and a super friendly staff

My favorites are the donuts (hot fudge + salted caramel)
Love the bagels there with the chive/ pesto cream cheese
Also a big fan of the raspberry rugelach

Can’t forget to mention the breakfast sandwich with the egg in the middle, or the ham and cheese croissant which is my favorite savory item.

During the colder months the hot chocolate is amazing and they also serve chicken pot pies on occasion which are a real game changed.

Crowded and busy. Depending on the time you arrive the line is long. In addition they sell out early.Be prepared to wait. The hot chocolate was too sweet! The staff were kind, polite and friendly.

There is very limited space for customers to line up, which makes the experience feel cramped and disorganized. The bakery selection is quite small, and the items are not warmed before serving, so everything tastes stale and cold.

I tried the za’atar bagel and was very disappointed — it was hard and difficult to chew. I also ordered a hot chocolate, which was extremely sweet — overwhelmingly so. I’ve definitely had much better elsewhere.

Paying $20 for a bagel and hot chocolate felt overpriced, especially considering the lack of taste and quality. There are far better cafés out there offering better food and value for money.

I absolutely love coming to Mindy’s Bakery! Their pastries are always delicious, and I can’t get enough of their drinks. I stopped by on a Thursday morning, and it was pleasantly quiet, perfect for taking my time deciding which pastry to try, since weekends are usually packed with long lines.

I went with the Dubai Chocolate Croissant, and it was fantastic! I didn’t really taste the pistachio, but it was still incredibly good. I also tried their seasonal Grand Au Lait, which was malted banana, and it was SO good. I got it iced, and the banana flavor was perfect. I’ll definitely be coming back soon to get it again.

I visited Mindy’s Bakery for the first time because I’d heard great things about the hot chocolate — and it truly was delicious. However, my experience at the register left a negative impression. While one staff member was kindly assisting me with questions, another spoke to me abruptly and walked away when I redirected my attention back to the person helping me. It took away from what could have been a great first visit. I hope the customer service becomes more welcoming, because the products themselves are wonderful.

I ordered a bag of Mindy’s Hot Chocolate Mix after seeing it on Good Morning America and can honestly say it is the BEST hot chocolate i have ever had!

Having been a repeat victim of overpriced and underwhelming pastries, I have finally found a bakery worth my loyalty. Is the ham and gruyere croissant almost 8 dollars? Yes. Is it also usually the culinary highlight of my week? Also yes. Like any devout follower, you'll find me here every Sunday morning. I wouldn't drag myself out of bed for anything less than fresh, buttery, flaky perfection, which Mindy's always delivers. (Shout out to Sadie for always being such a sweetheart)
