Eclair
Mikayla K.

I have been trying to find the best donut in the area and so many people have said good things about this place so i decided to give it a try but I was a bit disappointed. I came on Wednesday where they had a special for $1.60 eclairs so I got an eclair, as well as the custard filled Bismarck and glazed donut. The eclair was so good! Completely filled with a creamy delicious custard. Definitely come and try their eclairs!! The donuts, however are where I was disappointed. They are dense and chewy and just not pleasant to eat. Since the Bismarck was filled with custard (a good amount too) it wasn't as bad but don't get the regular glazed donut if you like a fluffy donut like me. I think this place is overhyped, at least for donuts. May be back for the eclairs though

The River

Fresh and unique options for this charming local bakery which is just steps from the river where you can find a spot on the grass to sit and enjoy your donut. After, you have finished take a little time to stroll around this sweet area.

Staff is super friendly. I ordered my Pazcki and pick up was easy. Taste good and will try other stuff later

Yellow cake with white icing

I contacted Riverside Bakery because I was working in Crystal Lake and I needed a cake for my nephews birthday party. It was the last of my choices because of distance. I'm so glad I called because it was one of the best cakes I ever had! The cake was light and moist, and the frosting was fluffy and not too sweet. They were so accommodating they removed decorations from an existing cake and wrote what I needed at no charge. No trace of the previous decorations could be detected. I am so happy I found Riverside but so sad I live too far away to go regularly

Had a fantastic maple toffee donut from here and grabbed some beautiful cookies for Mother's Day…read more Cute shop with a variety of tasty treats behind the counter.

The Village Bakery in Fox Lake has been owed by some amazing past bakers. It currently was closed…read moreto all a traditional landmark in Fox Lake l8ve on with a new owner who have the passion for baking some delicious treats. Meet the new owners Katie and Matt. Their culinary dream of working together has finally come true for them. The decor has been updated and they are still finishing up the inside, but felt the area was so missing the amazing treats this location offers. Trust me after speaking to them many times they will have many of the bakery well known items come back to the shelves and be ready for purchase. Whats nu e is they are offering more options and ways to make sure you're able to get that sweet tooth taken care of and soon will ha e online ordering available. I tested the cinnamon roll (I'm so gett8ng more so delicious and ate have while warm and the other half the next day, it stil lwas so good) and a cherry filled donut for my sister. I also got the jalapeño and cheese bagel yum it had the right amount of goodness and spice that I like. So stop in and have an open mind, try something new that maybe in the pastry Bakery you may have never tried.
