Notable Picks
8.7
A small-batch pastry-and-coffee shop that leans into bold, unconventional flavor combinations without losing technical precision. It’s at its best when you treat it like a focused pastry run—grab a signature item, add a brewed coffee or espresso drink, and keep the order tight before sellouts hit.
Must-Try Dishes:
Mole croissant, Emmie baked custard, Churro challah
What makes it special: Small-batch pastries built around signature, globally-inspired flavors.
A donuts-and-chicken counter built for high-traffic, grab-and-go momentum near Wrigley. The cleanest experience is a two-item order—one donut plus one savory sandwich—so you get both sides of what they do best without turning it into a long line commitment.
Must-Try Dishes:
Donuts, Chicken sandwich, Breakfast sandwich
What makes it special: A focused donuts-and-chicken combo that stays reliable at volume.
8.1
A modern Jewish deli with a real bakery backbone—bagels and enriched breads that support big, structured sandwiches. It lands best as an early-day pickup or quick sit-down: one signature sandwich plus a baked good, then stop before the order sprawls.
Must-Try Dishes:
Bagels, Egg on A Roll, Sufganiyot
What makes it special: Bagel-and-bread-driven deli sandwiches with serious bakery execution.
8.0
A neighborhood Mexican bakery built around pan dulce fundamentals—fresh, affordable, and best when you keep it classic. Treat it like a quick pastry box stop: choose a tight mix of conchas and staples, then add a slice-style cake only if you’re feeding a group.
Must-Try Dishes:
Tres leches cake, Concha, Pan dulce assortment
What makes it special: A classic pan dulce shop with strong value and steady execution.
Worthy Picks
#5
Xurro
7.7
A made-to-order churro counter where the texture payoff is the point—hot, crisp edges with a soft center. It works best as a dessert stop: one churro format plus one drink, keeping it simple so you get the cleanest read on freshness.
Must-Try Dishes:
Freshly made churros, Horchata milkshake, Churro sundae
What makes it special: Churros made to order, built around hot-and-crisp texture.
7.6
A mochi-donut shop where the chewy texture is the main draw and flavors rotate through familiar and playful riffs. Best as a quick treat run—pick two distinct donut flavors for contrast and pair with a drink, rather than trying to sample everything at once.
Must-Try Dishes:
Mochi donuts, Ube mochi donut, Oreo mochi donut
What makes it special: Mochi-style donuts with a chewy, bouncy texture focus.
