There are several locations and this was in walking distance of our hotel. I enjoyed the aesthetics and atmosphere. The staff was nice and helpful. I got the smoked salmon platter on a bagel as well as a shaken iced expresso. I left satisfied with the portion and my food selection. I do recommend all to try it.

I truly enjoy visiting the goddess in many parts of the city. I always find their beverages, food, and bakery/pastry items unique and delicious. Today I'm met a friend in the loop location. We opted to get a strawberry Matcha latte iced as well as a iced vanilla latte. I also ordered the breakfast sandwich. All of the beverages were delicious and served with plenty of ice. The breakfast sandwich although very simple with simple ingredients tasted delicious. It was comprised of toast, cheese, bacon, egg, and even guacamole/avocado. I did remove that as I didn't find it, very delicious. Always lively and boisterous in the locations. There's indoor and outdoor seating. Service was fast and friendly, and our order was almost immediately delivered. Good place for working. During busier hours it can be a little challenging finding a seat. There's a parking garage across the street.

Beautiful spot for a coffee and a quick pastry, or a nice breakfast in. I did get a croissant sandwich which is not pictured. Everyone came out great and it was delicious, ambiance is bright and vibrant. Perfect spot for breakfast.

Such a cute cafe!+1000 brownie points for the great music. They have tasty pastries and drinks. All the employees were really friendly and kind. There are many seats with outlets, bar tops and big tables/smaller tables so it's an ideal place to go work on your own or to meet with friends.The interior is very clean, modern and esthetic. Great place for all your social media photos ;)Got the fresh fruit tart, espresso cheesecake bar and iced matcha latte with macadamia nut milk. The crust on the tart was a little hard and the cheesecake tasted a tiny bit powdery but still good nonetheless. I appreciate that both the food items and drinks we got weren't overly sweet.We came on a Friday morning/noon and it was not overly noisy or anything. Cute place with good vibes, worth stopping by :)

was disappointed in my experience at Goddess and the Baker on Madison. I feel that maybe they are too busy to pay attention to detail regarding each customer and their order(s). My spouse and I were married at court down the street and came for a late breakfast. We both enjoyed the açaí bowl and morning sandwich. However when they brought the food, they asked if we also had a drink. When I told them the drink order, they threw their hands up and walked away. The drink was delivered and it tasted good. However, when I went to order a couple of pastries to take home, the cashier again was not too friendly as I paid. The breakfast was $30 and the take home items were $20. Paying that much money, I would have expected more care to package the pastries. They were delivered combined into 1 bag and they were smooshed. The frosting from one pastry was all over the other. The presentation in the case was beautiful and I was let down by the product I walked away with. Again, the drink came out separately, and the barista was kind and remade my drink for me. Other than this one person, I got a bad vibe from the staff. I think they are likely too busy to pay attention to detail for each customer and their order(s). Too expensive for a below average experience.

The atmosphere here is quite stylish. Everything has a clean look with a gold lining. The long booth provides comfortable seating as well. The cookies and cream liquid chocolate was quite tasty, but most of the cup was whipped cream. The breakfast sandwich was nothing special, all of the ingredients tasted standard. I would have liked the bacon to be a little crispier.I'd come here again to try the baked goods since I'm sure that is more their specialty than breakfast sandwiches. The biscuits and croissant muffins look tasty.

Wow wow wow. This place is awesome. Filling out my review now before I forget. Freshly backed goods, a display case to drool over, wide selections to satiate any diet restrictions, amazing drink menu. We got a few baked goods, each better than the next, the impossible English muffin, parfait, a few coffee drinks and a tea. But please, don't miss out on the cinnamon roll cruffin. The ambiance is great, cute decor, kid friendly, staff is nice. What more can you ask for? Just go already.
