This is an excellent bakery hidden inside a small cafe. It really shines when it comes to pastries and cookies. The treatment of flavors and textures is masterful. I love their plain croissants; they realize that perfect balance of rich buttery flavor and light flakiness. The scones are also excellent, in sunny fruit flavors with a startling contrast of moisture and crispness. The made-to-order sandwiches are wonderful. The coffee and espresso are good and there is a variety of teas and cold beverages available. There are a couple of problems with this place: the seating is scarce, especially in winter, and although the staff is friendly and attentive, they are often too busy to do a really good job. Overall, the Bonjour Cafe Bakery is a staple for people in the know in Hyde Park and has some of the best pastries in Chicago.
Pros: Food
Cons: Space
