I had an absolutely lovely experience here! This is a great bakery just off of Devon st. I would've normally walked past it but today the smell of fresh baked cookies welcomed me in. I was greeted by a friendly face and respite from the crisp cold air of Chicago winter. While browsing their products, the owner came out with warm freshly baked almond cookies for me to try. Normally I like my cookies with tea, but these were just perfect on their own: moist, warm, sweet, and crunchy! Before I even had the chance to finish mine, he came out with more cookies for me to try.

I highly recommend this bakery to anyone nearby! It's been here for 30 years for a reason, and hopefully it will be here...

The prices are also...
