Yummy coffee & cake 😋

Only open in the morning, from 7am. At 7.45am, there was a choice of chocolate muffin, banana muffin, and trail mix scone.

When they are gone, they're gone... So get there early to avoid disappointment, I had the last trail mix scone & last banana muffin, which were both very yummy 😋

Great coffee too - have struggled for vegan options in Chicago so finding this gem was delightful 💚

Note that all items have white labels, so you need to ask which are vegan. Helpful and friendly lady will advise 😊

Pros: Great tasty coffee, Friendly vibe, Helpful staff

West Town Bakery

I have eaten at West Town Bakery numerous times over the years. This location is located near one of my old homes, so it was hard to miss.

In general, I have always found the vegan baked goods to be a bit dry. I do love the ambience and punk rock vibe of this place. I wouldn’t be opposed to eating their baked goods again but just not something I would go out of my way for.

Cool punk vibe, lots of vegan options

This place has a cool punk vibe to it, helpful staff and offers quite a variety of vegan donuts, cakes, cakeballs and more which are marked with white tags on display. It was hard to choose with so many options!

Lots of vegan baked goods!

Cute little bakery with plenty of vegan options. The vegan cake balls are great! Huge thanks to the girl working during our visit (black hair with bangs, tattoos, & piercings) for being extremely helpful, patient, & kind!

Amazing vegan desserts!

Look for the subtly marked items in their case for vegan desserts! All the white tags are vegan. Others may have eggs/dairy for vegetarian folks.

Pros: Cute desserts, Lots of vegan options, Great coffee

Cons: Not a full-menu like their West Town location , Not too many places to sit

Skip

Look for the white labels, they are the vegan options. I learned this the second time I went. The first time I was given non-vegan items (beige) and told they were vegan. I could have figured this out by reading the other pictures and reviews which I didn't do. :-(

Cons: Not clearly labeled, Confused staff

Tons of vegan options - you have to ask

The cakeballs are to die for. I also had the chocolate peanut butter granola 🍩.

Every other item is vegan in the bakery case.

No Vegan Options

Didn't have a single vegan option on the menu or in the case of baked goods. One of the sandwiches was vegetarian. I stayed at the hotel for 5 nights and never saw a vegan option in here.

Cons: nothing vegan

Cake balls

Had a good variety of vegan cake balls. They also had one other vegan option but staff recommended the cake balls. Good for a dense sugar rush but not amazing.

Pros: Convenient location

Cons: Not alot of vegan variety
