Goddess and the Baker, 181 W Madison

overpriced. came here from out of town to eat for two breakfasts and that was enough. turkey bacon croissant is good but.. $11. the $10 vanilla cheesecake is small, has no flavor, frosting is chalky and the blueberries are meaningless.. the blueberry chia pudding is small and not worth $8, the photo on the online order is deceiving. the breakfast sandwich gets soggy almost immediately. the lemon loaf is dry and not flavorful. the half and half juice was decent. cute atmosphere and packaging at least?

Probably one of the best quality and tasting food I ever had in a restaurant. Their food just feel so good that I can't recommend it enough.

Nice stop for coffee of all styles and a sweet to go with it.

We went for breakfast, the croissants were not fresh and were very stale and hard. They looked amazing but we’re a huge disappointment.

Terrible bowl

Was told they didn’t have what I ordered after I had already paid. Honestly it was the only thing on the menu that I wanted to try. Ended up ordering something else in place of it to later on find out I still was owed money due to the price difference…why they didn’t notice or offer me my money back is wrong. It was only a couple bucks so I didn’t bother going back.

So good! I ordered pickup online on a friday morning. It was ready in about 10 minutes. I ordered an avocado toast with gluten free bread and oat milk latte. I was pleasantly surprised by how good the gluten free toast was. This is usually hit or miss but it was very good here. Lots of arugula on top like a salad but it was deliciously flavored. So many pastry and drink options available. For dining in the cafe, it was packed around the time i visited to pick up my order at 10 on a friday. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating though. If you are ordering pickup you can find your order on the online order shelves right inside the entrance. I didn’t see it and asked a nice employee and they directed me to it.

Clean and lively atmosphere with fresh food and great caffeinated drinks. Service was phenomenal. Loved their strawberry matcha.

Great little spot in downtown Chicago
