I don't know that I would eat-in, but this is a very good option to grab a coffee or tea. The iced green tea was delicious. The biodegradable straw is a bonus. The treats all look fantastic but I opted for the carrot cake. The gluten free options were tempting. The carrot cake was just what I needed. I could've shared it, enough for 2 people if you just want a couple bites. It's clean, the staff were nice, and quick easy service.

Sweet Rabbit Bakery is the definition of a good morning. As we watched the pastries being made in the back while ordering them in the front, we were blown away to receiver pastries that even looked better than the ones on display. A great vibe overall and I will most definitely be back early enough to order that Miso Rye loaf! Service was great and they had very kind people at the front. Also pet friendly and the coffee is fantastic (best dirty chai I've tasted). 9.8/10

My husband and I stopped by here on a Sunday morning around 10:30am. Sweet Rabbit Bakery had a cute interior and wasn't too crowded.We ordered 2 breakfast sandwiches with the sausage ($9 per). Service was friendly and quick! We both really enjoyed the sandwiches!! The bread was light and fresh, and the sausage was juicy and delicious. The thing that really put it over the edge was the Chili Crunch Pimento Cheese - it tied everything together and gave it that "it" factor.Overall we were really happy with the food and will be back! What a great addition to the neighborhood. I'll also have to try their coffee the next time we come!

It's 9 AM on a Wed morning & already the ube ho ho roll and ham & cheese croissant are sold out. Good sign for a new bakery! To the dismay of customers lined up behind me, I took my leisurely time studying the unique & traditional baked good offerings in the Pastry case. The soft-spoken and cordial owner, Andrew, patiently answered my questions about his intriguing creations. Ultimately I selected a rich, flaky kouign-amann laced with black sesame and Morning Cardi-o, a sweet cruffin dusted with cardamom and orange zest sugar. Couldn't leave without a buttery, pillow loaf of Japanese milk bread &iced matcha with oat milk was perfectly creamy with the right hint of sweetness. I can't wait to return and try the ube offering or the hunny bunny! Come out and support this *sweet* neighborhood bakery!

New bakery at corner of Belmont/ Leavitt in what used to be a Starbucks. Walking in, it's very modern with some seating, glass pastry cases & espresso machine. Nice pastry menu consisting of croissants, kouign-amanns, cinnamon rolls & even a baklava bearclaw!! They also have muffins, cookies, brownies, etc. Bread seems to be the focus here and they have many varieties which vary each day, they said. House Sourdough made with Turkey Red Wheat! Stopped in earlier to try a few things and they were very good; they seem to do slight variances to traditional pastries to enhance flavors. Awesome Cinnamon Roll called a "Hunny Bunny" with a honey/ vanilla glaze as well as a very good Banana Muffin. Cant wait to go back and try some of their bread! Prices average/ give them a shot! talk later

What a delight to visit Sweet Rabbit Bakery! Andrew Cheng has built and incredible bakery with some of the most delicious breads and pastries I have ever tried. The Buckwheat Kouign-Amann is a must have. Flaky, nutty buckwheat plays so well against the black sesame paste. The miso rye bread is the perfect texture - crispy on the outside with a delightfully chewy center. A must try!

THE BEST bread, pastries, and cookies that are truly inspired!!! For breads, the miso rye is deliciously earthy yet light and the seeded bread is chock full of a yummy seed variety. For pastries, I loved the rich flavors and fluffy textures that did not feel heavy: buckwheat with a slightly chewy black sesame topping, refreshing cardamom ginger and light orange zest, a generous decadent slab of chocolate in the flaky chocolate croissant. (I already loved the regular croissant but a foodie friend and I agree this chocolate croissant is the best ever.) For the chocolate cookies, they are HUGE and have the right mix of crispy outside and chewy inside. Service and ambience was perfect as my friend and I enjoyed our oat milk lattes at one of the tables against a wall of cheery paintings. Andrew the owner/baker and his staff thoughtfully helped me pick out what to try at the bakery and what would keep for my flight home (a bag of housemade granola too!). The Sweet Rabbit icon is so cute and I got trucker hats and t-shirts to give away with the bakery goods. The hats and t-shirts are on a stand in the hallway to the 2 clean, accessible bathrooms.I was staying in downtown Chicago's Marriott and it was a quick 15 minute ride in the morning. It was definitely worth it to try and buy something unique and delicious to bring home and give away. My small carryon suitcase fit a paper bag of the round bread loaf, a dozen pastries/cookies, the granola, and the hats/t-shirt. The pastries and cookies didn't crumble or squash after I came back home and took them out of the suitcase.Other fun facts: Another friend who lives in Chicago had gone 5 times in one month alone, just a couple months after Sweet Rabbit Bakery had opened, and she ended up ordering $100 of pastries to give away. Sweet Rabbit Bakery made one of Chicago's Hot 10 restaurant lists for a reason! I love the fact that this local bakery, which uses locally sourced ingredients that really elevate the quality and taste, used to be a Starbucks location that left the neighborhood. I'm telling everyone they MUST TRY Sweet Rabbit Bakery whether they live in or visit Chicago! The website allows you to order for pickup or delivery. I'm bringing a bigger carryon suitcase next time!
