Bonjour Cafe Bakery

If you're looking for authentic French pastries in Chicago, this spot is definitely one of the best. Their macaroons are particularly noteworthy and simply amazing. The quality and selection of teas and coffee are also exceptional, and they offer a wide range of delicious and high-quality drinks. On the savory side, you'll get plenty of delicious food for your money. This is the perfect place to visit no matter the weather; they have a cozy indoor area for cold days and a terrace that's great for enjoying the spring and summer weather. I highly recommend this spot! Once you get to know the owners, you'll quickly see how warm-hearted they are

June 3, 2022 I ordered a latte. There was a mixup about the size, but the latte itself tasted great, a traditional espresso drink. Note: they have aligned with the American standard of 12 ounce minimum size for lattes and cappuccinos, and I didn’t see signs of any 8 ounce cups. I also didn’t see a flat white on the menu, which is sometimes a backdoor way of creating an 8 ounce option. They ask had a tasty full of tasty looking baked goods as you would expect of a French themed bakery. And the people behind the counter even speak French-accented English!

The food is somewhat pricey but really good. The croque monsieur was delicious and the chocolate croissants have real chocolate! Coffee is good too. There isn't much room inside for customers at the moment because of social distancing, but the outside seating is in a nice space, and the staff stay on top of bringing orders out.
