What People Are Saying About Rolf's Patisserie Inc

The Editor

Citysearch

In Short – The outside setting is an industrial-looking brick structure on Touhy Avenue, but inside Rolf's it's practically Paris. Cases are filled with fresh-baked, light-as-air croissants and frosting-drizzled pastries nestled side by side with baguettes, muffins, cookies and other sweets. Locals sip coffee and read the paper at a few small tables while friendly staff wait on a steady stream of takeout customers. The place does a booming business with elegant, artful cakes; truffles are another house-made treat, with flavors like champagne, amaretto, Irish cream and good old chocolate.

Don't go there for the cake

by nonameslerft

The staff we friendly, but cake was terrible. If you want bland and dry this is the place for you. Our wedding venue offers a discount if you use Rolf's for the cake, but if I'm going to pay hundreds of dollars for a cake I'd rather serve something that people will eat, rather than serving something that will look pretty, but be thrown out at the end of the night.

  • Pros: The employees were friendly
  • Cons: Terrible, tasteless cake.
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Great Service and delicious choices

by BlueShoedBride

I was recommended to visit this bakery by Kathy at Kasia's Bridal for my wedding cake. I called and asked for Fabiloa (as suggested by Kathy) however, she was not available. I did end up visting with Joanne. My visit was very informative. I was able to have a tasting with my finace and mother. I'm very happy to have made my appointment here. We did purchase a few of their delicious concoctions out of their cases to take home, we even were able to purchase a miniture cake with the flavor we chose for our wedding, which came in handy as we had guests coming over inthe evening, so we were able to get a consencous on taste. We all definitely enjoyed the selection and flavors. I felt like I was eat delicious imported european pasteries! Highly recommended. I will update my review after our wedding.

  • Pros: Delicious

When good places go bad

by georjimmy

Rolf's used to make the best chocolate cake ever. Then, about a year ago, I bought one for a family gathering and was so disappointed to find that it was just terribly dry and stale. I decided to give them another chance last week, hoping it was just a fluke. Same thing this time, just really mediocre and dry. I could have made a Duncan Hines cake myself for a fraction of the price that would have tasted ten times better. So disappointing.

  • Pros: none
  • Cons: overpriced, poor quality
