Super friendly and cozy atmosphere! My friends and I love to eat here and hangout. We talk for hours and are welcome to stay after we finish eating. Unfortunately they do not offer gluten free bread to eat with their sandwiches or paninis. The Baja chicken bowl is gluten free though and is very tasty! The pastries are also delicious, especially the pumpkin muffins!!

I’ve had the pleasure of frequenting Sweet Reserve in Lombard and I’m excited to know they opened up a new spot in Skokie . I tried their Ras Malai Cake Jar, which was super yummy with its mix of cake and creamy Ras Malai. It wasn't too sweet, just perfect . Plus, they have gluten-free cookies that are just as tasty as the regular ones. Even if you can't have gluten, their cookies are delicious . Overall, Sweet Reserve is a great spot for anyone who loves desserts, whether you have dietary restrictions or not.

Okay, buckle up for a pastry pilgrimage! Tucked away like a secret treasure, this hidden gem unleashes a symphony of scratch-made goodness. Croissants whisper sweet secrets of butter, their golden layers teasing your taste buds. Scones, oh the scones! Flaky royalty, each bite a revelation that redefines flaky forever. And the kouign amann? Pure caramelized lightning, shattering like dreams that taste too good to be real. But wait, there's more! Gluten-free friends, rejoice! This haven doesn't discriminate, it celebrates every palate. And then there's the coffee... a melodic chorus of beans, reaching its crescendo in the black sugar latte – a must-try if you like your mornings magical. The vibe? Cozy as a cashmere sweater, friendly as a family reunion. The space? Well, let's just say it's intimate. Think "precious jewel box" not "expansive ballroom." So, set your alarms, lace up your pastry-hunting boots, and arrive early. This is a bakery worth the pandemonium. Trust me, your taste buds will sing hosannas after just one bite.

Food was tasty, but service poor and it wasn't good for special diets. I am vegan and gluten free, and ordered the vegan tofu scramble. It comes with veggie sausage and toast; they did not know if the sausage was gluten free, and when they checked still did not know. I asked for no sausage or toast, because of being gluten free, and I received sausage but no tofu. When I asked about it, the waiter repeatedly insisted I said no tofu, which I never said. The tofu looked and tasted like it was cooked in soy sauce, which is likely NOT gluten free, despite me telling them I was strictly gluten free. Very disappointed, will not be back.
