Goddess and the Baker, Wacker & LaSalle

So, my girl and I decided to check out The Goddess & The Baker on a lazy Saturday morning - it's been popping up all over the place, and since I live just a few blocks away, why not? The setup is cute, you gotta order at the counter, and they hand you this little buzzing thing to let you know when your order ready. We were in the mood for a chill morning, so we ordered a Latte (they didn't have Vanilla, though - bummer), a Matcha, a Butter Croissant, and a Chocolate Croissant. The guy at the counter said their lattes are unflavored, but we rolled with it. The Latte turned out pretty good - strong coffee vibes, which was cool. Inside, it felt like we stumbled into a coffee joint in Santa Barbara or something - that kind of laid-back vibe. The Croissants were big, buttery, and fresh. The only downside was the guy taking our order. Honestly, he seemed like he'd rather be anywhere else, with his bland and dry personality. Didn't ruin our morning, but a bit more pep would've been nice. All in all, The Goddess & The Baker is a chill spot for a low-key breakfast. Even though they didn't have the Vanilla Latte, the regular one did the trick, and those Croissants are worth the visit. Next time, though, it'd be cool if the dude behind the counter brought a bit more vibe to the party. We'll probably swing by again to try more stuff on the menu.

Long story short. Had 1 hour for lunch. My salad had to be redone 3 times because they kept not removing an ingredient from it as I asked. I guess food allergies is NOT a concern of theirs. So didn't really get to eat it there. They should have offered it to me for free!

Wonderful Lattes and fancy sipping hot chocolate, coupled with friendly service & a view of the river - what's not to like? We didn't eat anything, but the menu looked extensive and food spied on others' tables looked tasty. Shared gender bathroom was clean and well stocked. Vegetarian options: Extensive - Acia bowl, avocado toast, eggs, salad Wheelchair accessibility: First floor, wide doors

This was a great place to grab a bite to eat and a coffee. They do get busy but the food quality was great.

The matzo ball soup was very good. The bacon cheddar biscuit was dry and hard and crumbly. I'll pass on that next time. And the club sandwich was hot. That's a first. It's expensive for a carry out lunch, and it's not nearly good enough to justify the price. For $30, I'd rather go to PQM, for sure.

Great breakfast spot !

Even with a packed place, the line moved very quickly and our order came out in a timely manner as well! Coffee was delicious and so were the pastry’s! Perfect spot to jump start the day without feeling bogged down about spending too much time on a breakfast place!
