The Swedish Bakery has the sweeetest items to make your day! The bakery has a wide selection of fresh cakes and pasteries. I really like the fresh fruit cakes here. All the cakes are made fresh daily. If you need a cake, I would suggest you go in early or they run out by the end of the day. And if you need something special for a big event, call them right up and special order what you need and how you want it. They will bake you the best cake ever! Reallly goood bakery!

Good: The building, the ice cream, the service, watching the people coming for a special treat, mmmmmmm the ICE CREAM!. Bad: I REALLY can NOT think of anything I did or do not like. Too many Wonderful memories.. Improvements: An ORC in Colorado Springs!. Other: My father won a malt machine from ORC -when the store was first opened. Our Dad and Mom took us often as kids. We took our kids - even though we live in Colorado Springs. When we visit the family we all go for a Rainbow Cone. And we have taken our GRANDkids too. NOW our daughter lives and works in downtown Chicago and called me so excited as ORC is going to be just a few blocks from her job on Randolph. I pray our GRANDkids will be taking their GRANDkids some day. Keep the MMMMMMMMemories happening! Thanks!.

I have been a long-time fan of this aptly named bakery/sweet shop. Creative treats such as the "1000 chip cake" and the amazing Berry layer cake simply can't be beat, especially in Andersonville. I have never had anything bad here- and trust me, I've tried it all! The atmosphere is comfortable- although often busy. Order ahead for a whole cake or a custom goodie. The price of a piece of cake might a bit pricey at first- but one serving could easily please 2 individuals.

Kopi is a great place to come for coffee, dessert and even breakfast! They have an interesting menu with reasonable prices and also have a store in the back of the restuarant. We love it there!

This is my idea of the perfect bakery. Well, maybe not always perfect because so many people love this place that they tend to run out of their best sellers, like the peanut butter pie. Can you find something else as delicious? Sure. They have a small cafe with tables and they serve up simple luncheon fare (sandwiches and soup) that's pretty good, too. The cappuccinos are great, and staff is helpful. It's pricey, but you get a top quality baked good, be that tart, napoleon, or just a cute cookie. Highly recommended.

I once overheard a friend tell me that these doughnuts taste "like a cloud" and that's so true! They are very light and fluffy that it's almost like eating sweetened air. You can almost breathe them in they are so light! And you definitely don't need to go for anything fancy here - the plain basic doughnuts are quite satisfying. Krispy Kreme is also a pretty clean facility, unlike other doughnut shops that feel reminiscent of a gas station. When buying doughnuts here, be sure to buy in bulk to share with all your friends!

This place gets packed on the weekend mornings. It will get so crowded that it will be hard to get in the front door. Other than that you should always be able to get a seat and enjoy a cup of coffee with free refills. They make a great cappuccino, and their food is better than eating across the street at the hospital cafeteria for those of you who work around there.

I'm a big fan of Caribou Coffee. It sure beats the overplayed Starbucks that you find on every street corner in Chicago. The coffee here seems to me to be a bit less strong and a lot better tasting. My favorite drink here is the turtle mocha; the combination of coffee, chocolate, and turtle candy is amazingly delicious. They also have a good assorment of snacks here. For a fresh change from Starbucks, I would really recommend this place. You will be sure to enjoy it.
