Oak Park Bakery Inc

I am so happy with my purchase exactly what my daughter wanted thank you so much oak park bakery the cake was amazing very good just how it looks !!

Needed a carrot cake, and I’m not from Oak Park. Googled this place. Arrive there and they only had a whole cake. But the very nice LADY double checked to see if they had a loaf of carrot cake, and they did. I was able to get my friends a cake for her birthday, and she said it was really good.

I absolutely love their cherry sweet rolls. However, I must say I've never gotten anything there that didn't rank as one of the very best I've ever eaten.

A great old time bakery. Custard eclairs pure happiness!!!. Coffee cakes are incredible!!! Moist, bursting with Flav. Same for their sweet rolls. Best Jelly Bismack I have run across. Why waste your time and money on mass produced dunkin donuts??? Support local and head to O.P Bakery!!!!! Add the best darn taffy 🍏!!!!!

Incredibly fresh, very friendly staff, incredibly tasty, and the treats vanish incredibly fast after buying them! Definitely worth a stop in, I'd highly recommend thr cherry and cheese coffee cake

All I know of the Oak Park Bakery is what this amazing "little" piece of cake told me. A friend showed up with this slice of pure delight and it knocked my socks off. Crisp outer layers with a decadent filling overflowing and oozing out the sides as you cut into it. It was so rich I couldn't eat more than half in one sitting. I hope I can't find them on the map, or I'll end up weighing 7000 lbs.

An exceptional, old school bakery. You won't get gourmand focused cupcakes here but EVERYTHING they put out is fabulous. We love their seasonal offerings. If you're jumping on the CTA, they'll pack your order for safe travel. The staff is always patient, knowledgeable, and fun. There is a small credit card minimum so bring cash if buying for 1. Bonus: if you get there in the afternoon, there are excellent deals on daily bakes. Plus there's a bench right outside in case you want to enjoy something delicious sooner than later.

I've been going here since I moved to oak park and then for getting the cakes for my child's birthdays and everything in between. It's like the old school bakeries that you honestly can taste how much love goes into everything they make. They do get busy for the weekends and holidays so very important to know that you'll be in for a bit of a wait. They will always always always be worth the wait imo. The eclairs are HEAVEN, the best doughnuts, the log cakes, cupcakes, cookies, and if you're lucky to find it the bagel dogs.

Sweet tooth in the morning. This donut is busting with Bavarian cream. That's the way a donut should be made.. fresh bakery ..cakes.. cookies... Parking is a little tricky but worth it...

The donuts, eclairs, cakes, cookies are all excellent. The coffee is a hidden treasure, nothing fancy but a perfect cup of joe. The staff is neighborly and helpful. It's old school bakery at its best.

I was craving an old-school bakery Danish. Theirs did not disappoint. Street parking is good depending on the time of day when you visit. Even midday they still have several items to choose from. My office is in Cicero but this is a quick jump off I290 and service is quick.

Tried a little bit of everything except for the coffee cake. Everything was fantastic and the staff was so friendly. I'll definitely be back for the coffee cake!

I love this bakery! They were super helpful and able to accommodate a last minute soy free order. The cupcakes, cookies & cheesecake are sooooooo good. I've been a frequent visitor since middle school but have yet to try everything on the menu. I'm sure it's all amazing! Definitely my favorite family owned local bake shop!

Delicious! Awesome selection of baked goods. Strawberry coffee cake is to die for. I was pleasantly surprised that they had pineapple upside down cake. My dad's favorite. It was also delicious. The staff are so sweet and helpful. And the donuts! Yum!

Great place, and it's close to home! Too bad they don't have raspberry pie, Bakers Square had it a few years ago. And it was one of the best pies I ever had, it's also a plus that they have low prices compared to other bakeries. 4.5 out of 5!

Good parking Great service and great donuts ,coffee cake will return. Nice and clean.

I've been told countless times to visit this bakery, but never made it out to Oak Park until finally this past weekend. My First visit to this bakery was late on a Saturday (2pm, and they close at 4pm), and the fact that they had very little left over is a testament to how much they sell out early in the day. We purchased two Smiley Cookies, and wow was it so nice!! simple butter sugar cookie with frosting and a chocolate smile, but it was perfect with coffee! Will definitely come back to try their famous strawberry coffee cake one of these days! It just keeps selling out so quickly

This bakery is probably one of few authentic, non bakery chains left in the area. The pastries are delectable and fresh. I do not go often because I do not have the metabolism of my 20 year old self, but once a month I like to treat myself to these delicious goodies.

Called everywhere trying to book a cake for my dad's birthday and it just felt as if nobody wanted the business-- until we called oak park bakery. They answered the phone (so far so good) Agreed to provide the type of cake that I wanted (wow!) We ordered and paid and put our faith in them. Picked it up... it looked beautiful. Now the ultimate test : will my chocolate obsessed dad love the cake? Absolutely! 20/20 beautiful and delicious.

They have some good pastries and donuts, but I remember my visits here as being just ok. I have not tried their cakes. If you're looking to get good donuts, I recommend Firecakes.

I always thought this bakery was just your run of the mill generic bakery where everything is made with shortening and doesn't have a lot of flavor. Not so. I started working at a school in Oak Park and people would bring their products in on Fridays. They use BUTTER!! Lots of it. Their coffee cake is to die for. I have tried all flavors of coffee cakes, their butter cookies and a regular cookie and it is all so good. I don't know anyone who makes a better coffee cake. You have to either go early or call and order because they sell out fast. If you go in the afternoon you might just be looking at nothing but crumbs.

Love this tiny bakery cuz it's not too far me & the products they serve are very delightful. Their prices are pretty reasonable as well so if you plan on visiting during the morning hours you'll be sure to find a line forming outside the building. Definitely recommend this place for all your pastry needs!

Best FRESH donuts ever!! They have all of the chains beat on donut authenticity. Thank you!

The donuts were very good! The pumpkin spiced cake donuts were fantastic. The service was excellent.

I stopped in on my way to the train to work and grabbed a coffee cake to share with my coworkers and it was SO GOOD!!! The staff was very friendly as well. I'll definitely be back to try some of the cheesecake I saw in the case some time soon!

While the baked goods are out of this world and so delicious the service left a lot to be desired. The older person tending to me was nice and fulfilled my order, however the younger plus sized person was very cold and dismissive. They never greeted me or acknowledged my presence. They showed no interest in helping me and I honestly felt like I was being watched. This isn't the first time I've been treated this way and I think I'll find another bakery to spend my money in.

Old school bakery with incredibly friendly service and fantastic goods! The Kolacky and Apple strudel are both out of this world!

It's a decent bakery, but it's too expensive for my once and a while splurge for my co-workers. I paid $14 for a Rasbery Coffee Cake. I know everything has gone up, but I can get a similar Coffee Cake a Jewel for $6 or $7 when they're not on sale. Spare me that this one is worth so much more because it's local. It's a coffee cake. I cannot afford $14 for a Coffee Cake unless it also comes with Coffee.

Great fresh bakery! Get there early or you'll miss out. I make sure to come for my weekly baked goods supply. They have great cakes, doughnuts, cookies, coffee cakes and cup cakes. They are also very appreciative that I shop local and support small business.

We needed something sweet to start our trip to Mackinac Island. Oak Park Bakery did not disappoint!

I love the Oak Park bakery and everyone that works there! It's always a breeze to pick up a treat on my way home and the prices are very reasonable. This will always be my go-to bakery for both the quality of the food and the wonderful service.

We found this bakery when we lived in Oak Park. We moved about 10 years ago but still make the drive to get the best coffee cakes we've ever found. Their cheese coffee cake and pecan coffee cake are both just outrageously good. The potato bread, donuts and rolls are great too.

Overpriced and low quality. Just had a strawberry pie that had no pieces of strawberry in it at all, just the cheapest nastiest gloopy pie filling I've ever had. Threw it away after two bites. There are lots of better options in the area.

I'm new to the area but have managed to order two cakes from here already and both were delicious and very well decorated. Even when it's busy, they give their full attention to you. Highly recommend!

Great treats! Loved the cheese Danish pastry Great treats! Loved the cheese Danish pastry. I walked here from an Airbnb close by and was happy to have found it.

Such a lovely bakery, reminds you of local bakery as a child! Always fresh bread!!!

I've been a fan of Oak Park Bakery for years. Their nut coffee cakes are some of my favorite. So, when I decided to get married in Oak Park, I knew where I'd be getting my wedding cake. The bakery is easy to work with and pricing extremely reasonable; the hardest part is getting through because they're always busy. I got some basic info a while ago, so I had already decided what I wanted. Since we were doing an intimate ceremony, I wasn't looking for something large or stereotypically considered a wedding cake. What I ordered was a 1/4 sheet cake - chocolate cake, fresh strawberry center and whipped cream frosting. I gave them basic decorating instructions - festive colored frosting flowers in opposing corners. I was quite happy with the appearance and taste of the cake. The only hiccup was when my friend picked up our cake. Initially, they couldn't find the order, but when she asked them to take a second look, they found it.

Wonderful baked goods and tasty donuts and coffee cakes. Great service and they offer discounts after a certain time of the afternoon.

AMAZING! Gorgeous and delicious wedding cake! I live in Arizona and had my wedding in Oak Park last night. Calling from Arizona and planning the wedding cake was very easy! Anthony is incredible and started planning my wedding cake months before the event. It turned out fantastic AND tasted so good! There's no leftovers!!! I couldn't be happier. I heard I also need to try their donuts

Ordered cake for a baby shower 2 days before the event, after I was told "no. We're all booked for the weekend" by their local competitor. I'm glad they did because this was the best cake I have tasted in a long while! Moist sponge. Creamy whipped cream frosting. Fresh fruit filling. The mommy to be loved it! Taste like the birthday cake I used to have as a child. I'm glad the other place "kicked me out" because I wound up with the better choice! The pastries are good too! Staff is super nice! Highly recommend.

Wanted to give a big thank you to OP Bakery for a great experience. Called them last week to see if they could help with a birthday cake on what I thought was pretty short notice. They were accommodating, easy to work with, and the cake turned out beautiful (and way cheaper than I expected) -- and was a big hit with everyone! Thank you!

Great bakery. I won't eat a long John unless it's from here. Everything is delicious and quality made.

So delicious-where do start? Cookies, cheesecake, chocolate eclairs, pies ... we like it better than the Forest Park Bakery...just a better taste ... Great service behind the counter...always friendly and helpful! Going to try their Irish Soda Bread this weekend!

As the city of Chicago getting a massive tourist traffic from all around the globe, Rosa J. and her hubby have decided to retreat themselves to Oak Park for some spring/summer fun. We both like old-fashioned, historic bakeries around town, Oak Park Bakery is located less than a block south of the CTA Oak Park Blue Line station. Please exit the train station through the Oak Park Ave. side. It's tiny place with some enticing cupcakes by the windows, along with cakes, cookies, donuts, and bread to make the entire bakery look like a heaven for sweet-toothed individuals! We went with the quarter (1/4) pound of assortment cookies. You can hand-pick the varieties, but the nice young lady saved us some work by choosing the popular kinds for us. We paid less than $3 for eight (8) pieces of cookies. They do have a minimum cap for using a debit or a credit card, which is $5. My recommendation is to have some cash on hand because I realized other items were reasonably-priced as well. There's a PNC bank ATM inside of the Oak Park Blue Line station if PNC is your primary bank or if you don't mind paying for the surcharge. We munched couple pieces; they were pretty delicious. Those cookies might not look fancy, but there were one of the most down-to-earth things you could find in this country. Food with unpretentious embellishment, you can say it's old-spirited Americana. I always enjoy visiting Oak Park, for her relative serenity and peacefulness the city of Chicago lacks on spring weekends. I bet I will be coming this way some time soon.

I visited the Oak Park Bakery for the first time today. It's a small bakery super close to my house - which is sort of dangerous when baked goods are involved. It is an old school bakery - cakes with buttercream frosting and it smells wonderful when walking in. I stopped in for a healthy - breakfast - ha! I was hoping for a bit more of a selection. They had donuts and danish. It seems they are known for their coffee cake which is what I had. Admittedly- it's very good. It's also an incredibly reasonable price. I would definitely visit again - it is a bakery you go in for specific items.

I sent a picture of the cake I wanted and asked if they could make one similar. Plain white icing with one or two pink and white roses. I followed up with a call to confirm. She told me they could not do gold icing trim, I agreed to plain white smooth icing with one other two roses. When my husband picked it up, he paid almost $30 for a cake to serve 6 that looks nothing like the one I ordered. It is very ornate and had lots of tan and white extra on it. I am obviously very disappointed. I guess sending a photo doesn't help. I haven't tasted the cake so I cannot comment on that. If I had had time, I would have returned the cake for a do over.

You may ask, do they need another five-star review? Yes, they do. Here's what I purchased: Potato bread (a full loaf) is only $2 something and the pączki is delicious! It was strawberry-filled when I went. Eat with caution, the powdered sugar will get ALL OVER YOU. The bun is fluffy and light. The glazed strawberries were refreshing and sweet. I got two of these. The total of these three baked goods with coffee cost about $8. What an amazing deal. Here's what I didn't purchase: everything else that I had to stop myself from buying. There were raspberry filled donuts, custard filled donuts, cake, hot dog inside bread... I can't wait to try more next time I'm in the area. I talked to the employees who said that for Pączki Day, they have over 14 types of pączki available! I'll have to call in a few days before to order all types of them, so my friends and I can have a tasting party!

Everything in there is absolutely fantastic, wonderful service, and the ambience is a very happy feeling

They made a DELICIOUS buttercream Lego cake for my nephew's 6th birthday. Funfetti flavor inside and it was a hit! Perfect portion and size recommendation. Very easy ordering and pick up!

I love CVS especially the sales and coupons, the promotions they offer are great, and the staff is very helpful. I usually order on line because it is so convenient, you just pick up at the store. I would recommend shopping at CVS.

This bakery had a large variety of baked goods at decent prices. The staff was also incredibly kind and patient with me as I asked them to explain to me all the items even though they were quite busy. I tried their cheese danish, strawberry bismark, apple cinnamon roll, glazed donut, and vanilla cupcake. My favorite item by far was the apple cinnamon roll. The dough was so soft and the cinnamon with apple pieces provided such a wonderful texture and flavor. The icing was also generous and sweet while not overwhelming. The vanilla cupcake was incredibly light. I was surprised by a filling inside the vanilla cake as well and it tasted very different from most cupcakes I've had. I liked that it wasn't dense and the sweetness wasn't overwhelming. The cheese danish and strawberry bismark were my least favorite items. The dough on both was too dry. The strawberry jam in the bismark tasted very artificial like it was from a jar and it was way too overly filled as you can see in the picture. The glazed donut was an average donut. Overall, I'd go for the cinnamon roll and cupcakes here but leave the donuts.

We've ordered about 5 different birthday cakes over the years and each has been perfectly crafted, moist, delicious and beautifully decorated. The selection of donuts, pastries and other treats is amazing and always very fresh and delicious. This is our go-to bakery for work treats or when we are visiting relatives. We always pick up a few coffee cakes and a box of cookies. Service is always super friendly.

I absolutely love this bakery. Everything is fresh and the employees are extremely friendly. They have temporary Covid hours. They open at 6am not 5am

We arrived early in Oak Park to celebrate a birthday with a coffee cake. There was plenty of on-street parking because people were able to walk in, pick up their order and walk out quickly. We had trouble choosing from all of the amazing delicious backed goods, but the staff was friendly and patient. We were thrilled with the pecan pull-apart. We also bought several pies all delicious! Be sure and check their website. They take orders and bake to order. There wasn't a place to sit, this is an old fashioned bakery, you have to eat your treats at home or have a picnic. We'll be heading back on our next visit to Oak Park to try the Paczki.

Amazing. 50% Chan this bakery is open if you go. I swear it's incredibly disappointing. Family in town and would love to share some of the treats from this bakery... but CLOSED. AGAIN

There is a certain comfort in having a local bakery that cares about providing a quality baked good. I will always support this shop because the treats are good and they are important to the area.

Friendly people but their pastries always taste like paper. Not great quality
