50 Best Bakeries near Oak Lawn

“We went there today for breakfast. The eating area was nothing special but it was clean and nice enough for us to dine there. The food was pretty good as well. We tried the bacon egg and cheese sandwich and the cheese and jalapeño sandwich (our favorite) as well as a coffee and a hot chocolate! Everything was pretty good. In fact we decided to take a loaf of the jalapeño cheddar sourdough and some sweets home after we were through eating. Our only complaint was the gentleman taking the orders. He has absolutely zero personality and as the face of a place like this, you need to have someone willing to engage with customers. We never saw him smile once while he was dealing with us and we had two transactions while we were there. The bread is amazing. I just hope that the front of the store doesn’t keep people from returning! Just our 2 cents!“

“My daughter ordered a nut free wedding cake for herself, nut free and gluten free cookies and cupcakes for special guests! Everything was delicious and much appreciated from the gf and nut free guests.“

“I’m so happy we went with this local bakery for our wedding cake. They made the cake exactly as the reference photos I provided. We asked for cannoli filling on the bottom layer and she offered Dubai pistachio on the top layer and the cake was delicious! They were great with communication when other bakeries failed to do so. I would use them again in a heartbeat. Their other pastries and desserts are very tasty as well. Affordable, amazing quality, and great service!“

“Along with amazing flavors the staff here has made me feel like family! Diana greeted me and effortlessly she got a client for life. Parties and planning will for sure be a breeze moving forward because I’ll be going to oaklawn to visit my new found family for all of our delicious treats“

“Honestly these are the best shawarma in the neighborhood I love them anyone I take here always has nothing but good things to say about the food, the atmosphere is very inviting and the staff is very nice. I recommended the food to everyone that visits Chicago. I love it.“

“Best bagel place around. We love it!“

“Quick line, even though I didn’t know what I was doing;) The young lady behind the counter was very cool and helpful. Food was good! I never had a chicken avocado sandwich and it was yummy!!“

“I usually order the chicken pomodori and the tomato soup when I visit the restaurant. They're both really good. Today I didn't want to get out of bed so I ordered through Grubhub. The driver drove in a direction that passed my house and parked there for a while. I called him and he didn't answer. I text him and told him to answer his phone. He did and told me he was fixing his tire. What!? I don't know what exactly this man was doing with my food in his car. When I got my food, I noticed it was not secured, no sticker or staple. BEWARE!!!! Corner Bakery Cafe do not secure your food. That driver had access to my paninis and soups. I was afraid to eat the food especially after he abruptly ended our conversation. The way the world is today, shame on Corner Bakery Cafe for allowing strangers access to my meals. He could have spit in it, put his tongue and who knows what else in it. I worked it out with Grubhub and went to the restaurant to inquire about basically giving strangers open food to give to their paying customers. The manager, Kendra listened, was open and very receptive. I was giving three stars but because of her I'm giving four.“

“My favorite all time bakery. Been going to the Uptown location for 20 years and never dissappointed. LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT“

“Omg I ordered the chocolate Dubai cookie and it is beyond amazing they nailed it PERFECTION“

“what happened I have not been there in a while went there during Xmas season did not feel like Christmas at all there plus it looked dirty so disappointing it could use a good clean and some holiday cheer..selection was poor too very little festive mdse“

“There conchas are always fresh“

“Even though Monday was closed I was able to place my order online very straight forward like ordering a pizza. My order was ready by the time it said it would be. The cake was 3 leches and it was delicious. I definitely recommend and will buy again.“

“I love the fresh food , reasonable prices and how polite and helpful the ladies are. I have been going to this bakery for over 18 years. I moved far from it, and I drive an hour to come buy from there.“

“Shout out for the perfect Pastries for my daughter’s shower!“

“Owners were kind and patient when we placed an order at the wrong Kristoffer’s by accident. I had been to this bakery before and meant to order from here, but didn’t realize there was a very similarly named place in Bridgeport. They explained the difference to me and gave us some free goodies. We also ordered chilaquiles and a sandwich + soup, which were delicious.“

“Very good best smoothie iv ever had. Also very friendly staff“

“Honestly one of the best experiences I’ve had Maria and Ashley was very amazing with giving the best experience to customers no matter who you are and the food just as good, the whole team there could be seen giving their all, will definitely come again with friends!!“

“The 25 of January we celebrate my daughter wedding and I order some costume made heart conchas and they were a huge hit, beautiful and what is most important they were delicious, guests were asking where I ordered them from, and until today I’m getting calls, I recommend them to everyone getting merry is a nice detail to add to your event .“

“Best eggplant perm sandwich ever!“

“I went for the first time today (FOR SCIENCE!) and pretty much bought one of everything baked (plus an iced cold brew). I can't find a single negative thing to say, aside from wishing I'd bought more! Friendly folks at and behind the counter. The ham and cheese croissants were amazing as was the mushroom Danish! I don't even particularly like BLTs, but theirs was lovely! The almond, strawberry, and chocolate croissants (that's three separate things...) were out of this world! Welcome! And wishing you all the best!“

“Overall great experience. Very professional, responsive, along with amazing work. Everyone at our son’s party loved the cake for its beauty and taste!“

“Delicious! Lived up to the hype!! The staff greeted us with genuine smiles and offered excellent recommendations. Service was swift but never rushed, striking the perfect balance! The staff presented us with our orders before handing us the best cookies I’ve had in a long time. Go check them out, they never disappoint!!“

“The best cookies that I tried!
When I went for the first time I needed a seller because this work like self service, they help me and were so kind. Cookies are expensive but so delicious. The store is too small and it’s confuse because there are two lines, one for order and one for pickup, because of the size of the store it’s kind a mess“

“Crumble. Great tasting cookie, horrible for you. Not a fan of the Tinley Park location. Closed Sundays n then cookies are so thick they cook funny n get hard fast. Not like other locations alot thicker of a cookie. Ends up cooking funny due to the thickness as well. Makes it not as fresh like my normal crumble. Unless they were sitting due to the new everyday flavors. Which its about time crumble. Try the pink icing cookie, love it. Be ready for a sugar rush, possibly too much. I love it but not the best for you.“

“I only order cakes from Creative Cakes. They are delicious and beautiful. There is nothing they cannot do. We use them for every occasion. We always get compliments on the cake.“

“Hidden gem, great food and even greater customer service. Found my new go-to spot. Highly recommend“

“These really are crack cakes - so delicious! I had the caramel cake upon the owner’s recommendation and it was fantastic. I’ll definitely be returning.“

“Really affordable Chinese bakery if you want to avoid the rush of Chinatown (but still better than like, the bakery inside of Park to Shop etc). Very affordable too, esp if you bring cash to avoid the credit card fee. The curry bun, hot dog bun, coconut custard bun, egg tarts, sugar top buns like matcha crack top, are our standard orders. They make a good customizable iced coffee (e.g., can get it with no sweetener) too. We have never had anything that isn’t fresh.“

“Saint Anna's vanilla creme Swiss rolls!Deliciously fluffy, yet moist sponge cake with light creme filling.“

“deliciosos churros y crujientes.“

“Very pleased with their service, end results! I love their Tres Leches Cake. Just right not too sweet just delicious and perfect. I got my baby shower cake from St Jude’s and my daughter 1st and 2nd birthday cake. Always happy with the theme! Thank you so much for your service. For any event I always keep them in mind.“

“I stopped in to see what was available. Bought a variety of cupcakes. They were delicious. I have to go back and get some cheesecake ❤️“

“Stopped in to give myself a birthday treat. Everything is so fresh and delicious It was hard to choose. I of curse had to have my lemon fluff cupcake, a pastry and who could say no to an apple slice. But the true treats are the lovely and kind ladies working the counter. I truly feel it’s not just because I patronize Wolf’s bakery - but they are genuinely kind and make you feel welcome. I love this bakery’s products and its staff. Happy Holidays!!“

“Amazing! We went right before they closed and it was super yummy. All the selection choices looked so good! All the pastries and things my group got were phenomenal but most importantly the staff was so kind. The older gentleman and the young girl were so kind. Felt so warm and gentle. So eager to help and had amazing patience! Def check this place out if you’re searching for a cozy bakery with great hospitality!“

“The food is just incredible! I am speechless“

“Omg. The banana pudding cake was DELICIOUS. I should have got a bigger one. I will definitely be back. I rate mouthful of cakes a 10/10“

“Donuts are amazing! 💯 recommend“

“Forget the plane ticket — a trip to Acapulco Bakery is better than a vacation to Acapulco itself! 🌴🍩 One bite of their donuts and I was ready to trade in my beach chair for a pastry box. A flavor explosion that could wake up a sleepy mariachi band! 🎺😂

These donuts are pure happiness disguised as breakfast. Every bite feels like sunshine, good vibes, and a sugar rush all rolled into one. If you’re looking for paradise, skip the travel plans — just head to Acapulco Bakery and thank me later. Best. Donuts. Ever. 🙌“

“2nd order for our family within 6 months!!! Had amazing cupcakes for our sons baptism and our daughters birthday! Delicious and affordable!!“

“Awni Habiba Kunafa is a dream come true for anyone who loves Middle Eastern desserts. The kunafa is perfectly golden, crispy on the outside, soft and cheesy on the inside — just how mama makes it 😭❤️

Every bite melts in your mouth and brings back warm memories of home. The sweetness is just right, and the pistachios on top? Chef’s kiss 👌✨

Not only is the dessert amazing, but the place itself is full of warmth and love. Awni and his team treat every customer like family.
Thank you for bringing so much joy and sweetness into our lives ya Awni Habiba! 🥰🇵🇸“

“My daughter took the Strawberry Lemonade cookie baking class as her 15th Birthday outing. Her and her friends enjoyed the class and enjoyed their cookies! She was impressed with the intricate process and wants to visit again soon. The owner and staff were very involved and personable. Thank You for everything“

“Delicious ♥️ the donuts just melt in your mouth.“

“You know why I frequent Alwatan Bakery? Insha’Allah “God wills it” Their halal food is the best, I go there frequently for breakfast. I wouldn’t give that McDonald’s crap, or any other fast food to an abandoned starving stray dog on the street.“

“best pastries .....ever 😊😊😊😊😊😊😊“

“I love the owners. Very kind people!“

“pieczywo zawsze dobre i swieze. lody tez fantastyczne 👍👍👍 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ everything is always fresh! ice cream is DELICIOUS 👍👍👍“

“Loved how our son’s baptism cake turned out! It was delicious.“

“I highly recommend Wagner's Bakery. First of all the Great Customer Service, Outstanding Cakes with Delicious Flavors, the Sweet bread always fresh and delicioso. Best prices, worth your money and you better believe it! I refused to get My cakes from someone else, if it isn't Wagner's Bakery I won't purchase anymore else. Period Picture taken yesterday (08/27/22)“

“This was my first time getting food from Susu’s and it won’t be my last! The server recommended tostones and asada jibarito, and they were amazing! For those of you who have celiac disease or are gluten intolerant, the jibarito Is a dream because instead of having bread for the sandwich, they use plantains. For those with no gluten sensitivity or intolerance, the pistachio and vanilla tres leches are out of this world! All their food is freshly made. This place is truly a treasure!“
