Every pastry I've tried has been incredibly fresh and flavorful, from the classic donuts and coffee to the beautiful cakes and holiday treats that we get for our staff parties. The people who work here are genuinely friendly and helpful, happy to walk you through the choices and make suggestions (they have popcorn and ice cream too). It's clear they take real pride in what they do. I'm grateful to have a place like Iversen's to go instead of Starbucks, who couldn't even hold a candle to them! Plus it's right here in Blue Island - five stars all the way and I can't recommend them highly enough!

Has lots to choose from. They have more of a Mexican influence but they can make many types of pastries. Came here in the morning and got stuff that was freshly baked. It's kind of a small place that has a counter. They take a lot of custom orders. A popular place around here to get cakes. Popular whether for things like birthdays or weddings, they'll make it for you. A lot of amazing examples. They also have a lot simpler items like breads and cookies you can just pop in and get. It's about $6 to get a big loaf that's freshly baked. The pastries include cannoli and other classics as well as classic Mexican ones like panaderia and that kind of stuff. Great stuff especially when it's fresh. It's closed Sundays. This is among the several bakeries on Western.

I haven't had a churro in probably like a year. Walked in to a friendly greeting. Very casual place. There's a few tables and chairs for sitting.

I ended up ordering what I came for, two classic churros. They were warm and delicious, as expected. I can definitely see myself coming back for the churro sundae though.

Blanca indicated that she wouldn't be able to do the complicated lace design on buttercream, but I appreciated that they took my example and ran with it. At our cake testing, I was a little disappointed in the number of selections, but ultimately we probably would have picked the same thing. The cake was tasty at our wedding. We also tried some cannolis from there, which were good. Blanca was professional to deal with. I would recommend this bakery.
