Pistachio latte (top) and "Bumble" (orange juice + espresso) (bottom)
Ruby P.

My boyfriend and I really enjoyed this lovely café! He recommended that I try the syrniki (the Russian/Ukrainian cheese pancakes), and we also ordered the cream cheese & garlic donut, Napoleon cake, a "Bumble" (orange juice + espresso), and a pistachio latte. Everything was delicious! I especially loved the cream cheese & garlic donut -- perfectly baked on the outside and filled with garlic-flavored cream cheese. So savory and satisfying! We enjoyed both the food and the drinks, and we were able to get some work done here as well. I'd love to revisit this amazing place to try more of their cultural dishes!

Decided to come here with a friend to catch up over a lighter breakfast and some coffee. Super glad we did because the staff was very friendly, the place had a lot of seating and was cute overall, and the food and drinks were delicious! It's owned by Central Asian immigrants (I think Kazakhstan) who have the sweetest personalities and made sure we had a good experience. Would definitely come back and support!

Honey cake.
Pooja B.

It is a cute little bakery with good but limited options for breakfast. Their coffee is amazing.. strong with a creamy texture. The Honey cake is amazingly delicious. A must try!! We got the 8 inch cake home as well for the birthday party. Service is good as well.

I came here two days in a row lol - I'd been meaning to check this local spot out for a while. First day, my friends and I had breakfast - I got the regular syrniki, a burrata danish, and we shared the honey cake. The honey cake itself should be five stars and this Central Asian-run local spot has great vibes and ambiance including workers with warm smiles. However, I thought the syrniki was a wee bit small for the price and also just okay. I came back the next day because I was in the area and hungry and I did enjoy picking things out of their pastry case: this time I got a potato pirozkhi &cream cheese and garlic donut. I read a review describing the latter as an everything donut. Both were good, as was the burrata danish from the day before, but I only think the honey cake is a must try. But I'd def be down to stop by again next time I'm in the mood for a snack.

(G)o!! but only if you can wait out the lines, because this place is so popular right now and they're sold out by 1 or 2pm (W)ow factor - it's a hot spot!! (M)enu - got a scone and a couple raspberry pastries, phenomenal!! Not too sweet, supremely flaky pastry layers, and huge!

Garlic and cream cheese donut
Brittney W.

Went on a whim Sunday morning for breakfast since we've been seeing Sweet Moon pop up on social media. The interior is quaint and welcoming with good natural light. Seems like it would be a good place to work too. The menu is extensive and has some unique options. We opted for the pastries at the counter and they did not disappoint! We got the garlic and cream cheese donut and the burrata pesto danish. We also got both hot, which I highly recommend. The garlic + cream cheese donut was so delicious! The perfect mix of creamy and garlicky. Similar to a bagel, but less heavy. The danish was also fabulous! I love all the savory flavors and the dough was flaky and crispy. I would definitely get both again. For drinks, I got the strawberry matcha, a seasonal offering. I loved the addition of the strawberry for a nice hit of sweetness. All in all, would definitely come back for more pastries and drinks!

Sweet Moon is a cute bakery and cafe in Lincoln Square. This is one that I've walked by for years and finally went for the first time! Tried a hot dog pirozhki (hot dog in a baked bun) and a samsa chicken (kind of like a mini samosa m . Both delightful and delish . Interior is beautiful and well designed . Service is quick and courteous! Will be back to try other things soon! #bakery #cafe

My friend and I came here after a Friday morning workout at the local gym since it was recommended to us by another friend we were staying with while visiting for the weekend. On the outside, the shop is unsuspecting and quite discrete. On the inside, it's spacious with plenty of seating and a minimalist chic set up. The vibe was pretty tranquil and offered a good spot for people to study and do work. We decided to look into the pastries as our post-gym snacks, and ordered the following to share: - Garlic & cream cheese donut: FREAKIN DELICIOUS. This was by far the best of the three. Loved how the garlic flavor compliments but doesn't overwhelm the flavor and texture of the cream cheese. The texture was nice and airy, but also the pastry itself offered so much flavor for such a decent size. 5/5 for sure! - Sausage piroshky: Good, yet tasted like your typical pigs in a blanket pastry. 3/5 since it didn't really blow me away. - Pineapple coconut brioche: This one was a good balance - not too sweet but also the texture of the brioche was smooth. 4/5 since it did its job well! I will definitely return here if I visit the area again. The spot is lowkey but it accommodates for the possibility to work, reflect, and indulge!

Basque cheesecake
Pan J.

The food and drinks have been very good. They mostly serve breakfast foods (omelets, waffles, crepes, etc) so keep that mind. The portions aren't the biggest but the quality is good. I've gotten the mushroom omelet twice. I really like their desserts - they served my basque cheesecake with warm chocolate and it was soooo good. My only complaint is that seated is very limited and it takes a while for the food to come out.

Bakery
Casey W.

Only got a mocha but would go back for their bakery items. The mocha was pretty bitter.

Breakfast Sandwich
Amber M.

Sweet Moon is so peaceful! It has a mellow vibe even when it is busy and the food is so good. I especially liked the breakfast sandwich and the multi nut croissant. There's wifi and plenty of outlets throughout the cafe! Would recommend :)

Salmon Croffle
Karen C.

Stumbled upon this place while looking for brunch places on Yelp! I'm so glad we came here! The decor is whimsical and filled with warm wood, bold green chairs, and all the pretty plants. I also appreciated the fresh flowers at the table. A great date spot! The staff are really nice and patient. Salmon Croffle: I was expecting just a sandwich, but it surprisingly came with a full plate of fresh veg too! I really enjoyed the sweet tomatoes as a compliment to throw savory, bready bites of the croffle. Pistachio Latte: well balanced latte that I got with oak milk. Not too sweet- it was perfect.

It's super nice back here! It started drizzling and the staff was quick to put up umbrellas. They have a really great team who was very kind to the two year old's we had at our table. The iced vanilla latte I had was really good! The actual food was hit or miss at our table, but I enjoyed my veggie skillet and eggs. Afterwards we wandered around the space and checked out some of the art. It's a really cool spot, and would be awesome for an event or company party!

Within the old Gate area of Chicago Chinatown on Wentworth sit two Chinese (Cantonese) bakeries…read more Chiu Quon was by far the more popular of the two. It is newer and sharper looking. Staff spoke English well. Customers included many westerners as well as the expected Asians. Chiu Quon is cash only, same as Feida across the street. I was generally quite excited about what I might find here. The name Chiu Quon 超群 is a 50+ years old bakery in Hong Kong (English name Maria's bakery). I was wondering if it had any association. Alas, no. Be that as it may, this Chiu Quon is a 1986 institution in Chicago Chinatown. So, they deserve their own applause. I was on a mission per a friend's request to find 'chicken little cookies' 雞仔餅 or as CQ calls it, Phoenix Cookies. That was the first thing I bought. Alas, my friend reported they are oddly sweet instead of savory. Well, each has their own family recipes. I did side by side comparisons with Feida. The CQ pastries are a bit more refined, prettier, a reasonable filling to crust ratio, but also smaller, less filled, and $0.25 more. Items we bought: - Wife pastry 老婆饼, filled with wintermelon filling (no chunks) - Red bean pastry 豆沙酥, a smaller flat round type - Crystal gel pastry 香蕉糕. This old school soft steamed glutinous rice mochi roll is now commonly vanilla flavor. Theirs have a bit of red bean inside. Their version was quite sweet. - Red bean filled pastry bar with walnuts. We liked this item the most. Plump, well filled with red bean, the walnut has a balance to the sweetness, minimum crust. We bought more to bring home. All items were around $2.50. I honestly like both bakeries and wish we have lower cost options at home.

We came here for a quick breakfast and were satisfied with what we got. There was a bit of a line…read moreinside, but it moved quickly. We got a few buns and pastries, then ate them inside at the standing counter they had along the window by the front door. This did feel very mych like a grab and go spot, but it was raining so we stayed a bit longer. Food was nice and tasted correct. Prices seemed fair, and the space was clean - felt like your typical Chinese bakery. Overall, we left feeling full with our choices and it was a nice experience. Thanks, Chiu Quon!

Recommendations: Breakfast Meal…read moreBBQ Pork Bun Pineapple Milk Custard Bun We went to st. Anna for breakfast on Labour Day morning. We ordered the breakfast meal sets, which came with two mini pineapple buns and spam macaroni. We also ordered a breakfast plate with scrambled eggs and fried spam. The breakfast meals come with hot drinks and are only around $9, which is a great value. There are only 5 tables for dine in, first come first serve! The bakery also offers a variety of freshly made pastries and buns. Our favorites were the BBQ pork bun and the pineapple milk custard bun. Both were flavorful and fresh. It is a great spot for an affordable breakfast and some fresh bakery items.

Saint Anna is a traditional Hong Kong-style bakery and café offering authentic, high-quality…read moreproducts at very reasonable prices. Before the pandemic, we used to visit every weekend. Our family and extended family often ordered birthday cakes from them, and their mango cake was our favorite. When mangoes were in season, they used plenty of fresh mango in the cakes. Their cakes are always fresh, light, fluffy, and not too sweet. My daughter and I also love their individual cakes, especially the Black Pearl and Walnut Cake. Their pineapple buns and egg tarts are her favorites as well. Saint Anna has also been part of our daughter's childhood. When she was little, my husband used to bring her here before or after Chinese school in Chinatown on Sundays. Her go-to breakfast items were the Butter Bun, Ham and Macaroni in Soup, and Diced Ham and Corn in Cream Rice. As she got older, Curry Chicken with Potato became her favorite. She especially loved the potato cubes soaked in the delicious, mild curry sauce. She would always ask for more potatoes and less chicken, haha! Saint Anna is a family-run business, and Sara and Irene, the daughters-in-law, used to take care of the front of house. They were always so friendly and accommodating. After a 6-year hiatus, we finally returned one Friday recently when we happened to be in the area with a friend. Sara is now a co-owner, and it was wonderful to see her again. She immediately recognized us and was so warm and welcoming. She even asked me to relay her greetings to my sisters when she greeted us and again when we were leaving. Those little gestures made our return feel especially meaningful. We were still full from a big dim sum lunch, so my daughter picked up 2 Mini Pineapple Buns and 2 Paper-Wrapped Sponge Cakes, while I got a Red Bean Roll. Everything was fresh, soft, and delicious, and the total came to just under $8, really a great value. Our friend also purchased 2 Fried Sticky Rice Dumplings with Chicken. I had never really paid attention to their limited dim sum selection before, so that was a nice discovery. We love Saint Anna and will definitely be back whenever we're in the area.
