I turned 30 and since I have a milk allergy I thought this place would be a good choice. I am sad to say the strawberry cake was not good and neither was the sliced cake that I got that was grape and vanilla flavored. I'm sorry but it was a bit too doughy and the consistency of the cake and frosting was not good. The service was good though. Nice people. The strawberries that were placed on top looked old. The design of the cake was very pretty but the taste was the most important thing. I couldn't even take a second bite. I feel like it wasn't worth $45 and a 38 mins drive.

Very friendly staff! However, I would likely not go out of my way to visit again. My partner and I split one savory and two sweet baked goods. Nothing was very memorable, and everything was a bit bland and a bit dry. Maybe we got the wrong items? Or maybe I've just been spoiled by too many amazing European bakeries I've been to.

This is a hidden gem in highland park! They have wonderful vegan lunches like "tuna" salad. Fresh Sourdough & of course scones! Yum. If there are any empanadas... buy one or 4 if you have boys who are teenagers. You'll thank me later?

The Chunky Scone, is a beautiful Gem in the world of vegan cuisine and bakery. The owner Oscar is so sweet and nice and this little Euro feel like bakery will be my go to shop in Highland Park. The French Press coffee with the Strawberry Scone and Blueberry muffin was an infatuation of it' own.
Oscar exceptional skill in creating vegan delights is evident in every bite you take Yummy!!! The food was so delicious, the Vegan Ceviche, was a true testament to their culinary expertise and passion for vegan baking.
This cute little bakery is welcoming creating an atmosphere that's as warm and inviting as the aroma of their freshly baked goods. Whether you're a long-time vegan or just curious about plant-based eating, The Chunky Scone is a place you need to experience. Trust me, you won't be disappointed. Their commitment to quality, community, and delicious vegan options is truly commendable.

I absolutely LOVED the vegan gluten-free baked goods my partner got for us from The Chunky Scones - so delicious, excellent texture & mouth feel, and easy to digest! Recently, we went while Simbiótico Coffee was there, and the oat milk latte was incredible. After stepping inside for the first time, I was impressed by how good everything smelled and the wide variety of food & goodies on display. The storefront is small, but cozy and efficient.
The location is very convenient, on St. Johns Ave. just north of Roger Williams Ave., directly across from the "Ravinia Train Station North" parking lot. If it's not too busy, you can park in the metered lot for free (read the signs for restrictions). There's free street parking around the area, as well. It's a small location, but apparently they're really efficient so there's rarely a line. There are also a lot of cool shops and the nearby park is really nice (they occasionally have food trucks there in the summer), so it's worth a walkthrough. There are a few outdoor seats, and the park is very close, so I can walk my dog while my partner runs in for baked goodies.
Everyone at The Chunky Scones is so friendly! I love the mega-chill vibe they have, and I'm so happy to see they're fans of lucha libre freestyle wrestling (they've even co-sponsored a vegan market with lucha libre performances featuring GALLI stars like Lince Dorado, Bandolero, Aramís, El Torero, Sexy Star II, Shazza McKenzie, Victor "El Sueño" Iniestra, and more). I look forward to my partner - who loves this place - bringing home more goodies from The Chunky Scone. If I'm in the area, I might also pop in occasionally for a treat. They like our dog, which is also cool!
Vegetarian options: Many MANY vegan options!

Incredibly kind owner and delicious baked goods. She recommended the tres leches and I was NOT disappointed. Can’t wait to try more!
These scones are AMAZING! He had bagels one day, and it was quite the treat. My grandfather has been a regular customer for years, and can confirm the quality is consistent and customer care is superb. Many people think of scones as dry, but these are wonderfully moist! My suggestions would be the apple cinnamon or strawberry scones for a first time try.
Dietary restrictions: They had options for vegan and gluten free sensitivities. Not all options are gluten free, but are clearly labeled as such.

Fantastic little Vegan bakery. The owner, Oscar, was incredibly kind along with his staff and provided the best customer service. He was willing to answer any questions we had, and you can tell he had a passion for his business which shows through in his baked goods. He also makes an effort to support other small businesses which is always great to see.I had a cupcake and a tres leches slice. If I didn't have dietary restrictions I would pick up a tres leches slice every day. My friend ordered a scone and she said she really enjoyed it.Definitely recommend a visit to this place.

Great spot. Owner does a phenomenal job all around. I’m not vegan, but have severe dairy allergies. Vegan bakeries like this are some of the most memorable places I visit as they allow me to enjoy delightful treats I normally have to enjoy vicariously through others.
