What a great spot to have a nice afternoon drink and sweet treat. I have the cherry chocolate, cold brew, very good. Much better than anticipated. Carrot cake and Boston cream both didn't disappoint !

Staff were professional, but interactions were not particularly warm and welcoming, which is why they received 3 stars. We got 2 cinnamon buns, a Boston cream, a glazed donut, and cheese-and-caramel mix popcorn. Donuts were soft and fresh, but hubby didn't care for the popcorn. Despite the lack of customer service, this is a great neighborhood bakery.

For sure it's hard to not like a bakery. It also feels good to support a local business that's…read morefamily owned and smells freaking good. Nova Bakery is one of several in Blue Island. 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 tried to purchase a refund, but the owner refused to issue a refund. I didn't want to ask to place another order because the owner was sweeping the floor when I came into the restaurant and taking a phone call with gloves on while I was looking around the store at the beautiful undercooked bakery pastries a customer walked in while she was on the phone and she served the customer after the call in dirty gloves. I will never go to this place again this is not the way to run a business if help is needed hire help. I would give no stars if I can. The only excuse she tried to use was the bread dough comes only one time in the morning which doesn't explain why I was given old pastries when I placed my order in advance.

Cold old, recooked pastries from Nova's bakery!!!!!

Beware of this place!!!!! The owner just took my money and don't care about the customers she services.

I gave them an example of a cake design that they replicated well. 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.

There are alot of one way streets that divert you away from the bakery so make sure you figure out the exact location before going. I ordered powdered cookies and coffee cake; both were freshly made and tasty. There were a ton of bakery options to choose from and everything looked great. There is definitely room for improvement service wise. With it being my first time I definitely felt rushed by the cashier and criticized for asking questions about the baked goods. I also feel some type of way when someone around my age calls me "honey". It's very diminutive and not appropriate customer service terminology. All in all, I definitely recommend this bakery.

She cut that piece out but then noticed the hair continued. In the end, that hair was at least 6 inches long. GROSS !! In our discuss we threw that half away. I wish we kept the cake, I would have taken it bake to the Bakery to show them. My stomach is still turning at the thought. Was there hair in the pieces that we and our guest ate? We will NEVER purchase from this company again !!. I will call first thing Monday morning to let them know. Look closely at the pictures, enlarge if needed, you will see the hair. Wouldn't that also be a Health hazard?

The chocolate cake was the consistency and quality of any package cake that you buy from a box. I was expecting gooey delicious moist incredible chocolate cake. The frosting was not like the butter cream. I am used to it. It was a lighter frosting and perhaps it was butter cream but I can't be sure. The filling was not custard. It was the same frosting is on the outside of the cake. The royal icing decorations were not edible. And there was no merry Christmas written across the cake. When I questioned her about the filling she went in the back of the store and I guess she pretended to look at something and came out, so Yep vanilla just like the picture. I remember the conversation verbatim plus I wrote down my own notes. And when I got home, sure enough, it was supposed to be buttercream frosting And custard filling. Overall it was not what I ordered, the quality was not of something I would expect for a $90 cake from a bakery.

They also opened to enable us to buy goodies and I fell in love with the brown butter bourbon cookies!! They were 3 for $5 and I would have bought the 3 bags that were in the case, but a woman in front of me bought 2 bags so I was left with one. They have mini pies for $5 and while it was hard to decide (assorted cheesecakes, key lime pie, sweet potato pie, etc.); I bought a mini peach cobbler for hubby. They are the perfect serving size and he loved it! Both of the cakes they had at the shower (a chocolate and a yellow rainbow) were moist and delicious; the only downside is that we live so far away!
