24/7 Vending machine for when your sweet tooth cravings hit any time of day!
I got an Oreo cheesecake. The cake was so incredibly dry that I couldn't even pick it up with a fork.
Dubai chocolate is šÆ
The cheesecake tastes homemade but don't quite expect it to win an award. Great for an after-date.
Delicious! Tried the Milk Chocolate Mini! Definitely recommend

What a great find! Spent my daughter's birthday in Chicago and found this gem on Google maps. At first, we couldn't find it because the walking directions stopped about 200ft too soon, and you cannot see the ATM from the angle the machine is set at. So keep walking! The selection is large and the sweets are fresh and delicious. I recommend the macaroons and cheesecake.
I found this place while roaming around Google Maps, and thought I'd give it a try. Directions stopped a little too soon, but we were able to find it. It's just a vending machine with various flavor cakes. My husband and I got the vanilla confetti cake. The cake was pretty fresh for being vending machine cake, but the flavor was just okay. I've had worse cakes before. Definitely worth a try at least once!
The Bakery Box is a delightful spot for anyone with a sweet tooth. Their pastries are fresh, beautifully presented, and absolutely delicious. The staff is friendly and welcoming, and the cozy ambiance makes it even more inviting. A perfect place to grab a treat and enjoy some comforting baked goodness.
The Bakery Box is too cute to be true! šš It's a vending machine (clearly shown in the pictures), yet people still comment saying thereās no storeāthat is the store! š They have a variety of cakes to choose from right on the screen, and if somethingās out of stock, itās grayed outāsuper easy to use. The cakes were really good, and the concept is just amazing. Creative, convenient, and totally worth a visit!

This place has a very cool concept for getting a dessert: a 24-hour vending machine offering many options for cakes. It's pretty easy to use. Basically, you pick a flavor of cake you want on a screen. Each slot inside the machine with a specific cake flavor has its own number. If I remember correctly, all the cakes have the same price - $8. I believe it is a little overpriced because the cakes are not that big. However, I must say that all the cakes I tried were very delicious and seemed fresh. My favorite flavor so far is the Almond Cake, which gives a mix of sweet vanilla and almond flavors. The chocolate cakes from the machine were very tasty too. A big plus is that each cute pink box a cake comes in also has a little plastic spoon inside if you want to eat it right away outdoors.
The location of this cake machine is good, only a couple of blocks away from Michigan Avenue, in the heart of Chicago where a lot of hotels and other businesses are. The little problem is that the machine is kind of hidden on the corner of a wall. Search for the green signboard āThe Grand Ohio Condominiumā to find The Bakery Box.
I also have to mention a big issue with the machine - not all the cakes are actually available to get. Some slots with cakes were not available even though the cakes were there. The machine gave an error for these slots, and there was nothing I could do about it. This happened to me a couple of times when I went to get the cakes, and I believe the same slots did not work for a few days. They definitely need to fix this issue. Otherwise, there's nothing negative to mention about this Bakery Box. Very smart concept!
I absolutely recommend trying a dessert from this machine.
