    Wake & Bake is a vibey space with various eye-catching pastries and colorful drinks that make you want to come back and try something new every time! Hence, I used to think everything was infused with THC, but the barista, Josh, explained that you can get any of the drinks without THC and that only the pastries are all infused. However, it's a little pricey with the infusion, but I enjoy my drinks without it nonetheless as the flavors are always enjoyable. Additionally, the cafe has a lounge area in the back where you can find Uno cards and Giant Jenga, making the whole experience fun if you're with friends and family. The art displayed on the walls and the ones for sale are also a great addition to the cafe's aesthetic.  I would highly recommend trying the Berry White Lemonade (featuring Raspberry, Blueberry, and Strawberry flavors) or the Green Goddess Tea (featuring Sweet Matcha, Mango, Lemonade, and Coconut Milk). However, I preferred Josh's modification of the Green Goddess Tea - he replaced the coconut milk with their Macadamia milk, which made the drink even better by sweetening the matcha and mango combination that I already found intriguing. In the end, I really enjoy my visits to Wake and Bake, my drinks, and my conversation with Josh. What a guy!

    Taking the high road ‍ Tried @wakenbakery_logansquare for the first time which was a lot of fun to look around at all the goodies they had and what was infused in them! The drinks at the cafe are not infused unless you want them to add in something for you all you have to do is ask:) The service there is super helpful and they are really kind plus the ambiance is so fun and you're able to sit in there and chill with your friends or bring work to do and stay awhile:) pictured here is the double dream mocha iced latte and strawberry cough lemonade the food items are oatmeal pie, sugar cookie, Rice Krispies, and 2 mini cheesecakes! It was honestly a fun experience and definitely worth a check if you're around one of the shops!

    Wake n Bakery is a coffee, drinks, and bakery shop in Wicker Park. They baked goods are cannabis infused and you can get the drinks infused too. I tried the Pink Crush Kush tea (not infused) which was incredibly refreshing. The art, space, and staff are so welcoming. The music & playing in the cafe what drew me in. Nice spot that is open daily, check it out. Pink Crush Kush- House Fav Tea with passionfruit and hibiscus finished with lemonade and coconut milk

    The staff were all very welcoming since we walked in. The lemonades we ordered we're delicious and the they quickly were able to get us high. I love all Wake n Bakery locations I've tried, however, this one has the best atmosphere & actives that help enhance your experience. Highly recommend if you're in the area :)

    Soooo cute good service! Nice selection of edibles!! A really cute space!!! They have lemonades, teas, cookies, mini cheesecakes etc. I forgot to take a picture of the mini cheesecakes and the free sugar cookies I got. I will be back!! If you purchase anything this month you get free cookies with you purchase BUT you have to ask for it!

    Came in on a Friday afternoon. Not too busy only about 3 people in line and they got to us quickly. The worker at the register was well informed on the most popular vs her favorite drinks and letting us know all the differences to pick the right one. I didn't get her name but she had glasses and a purple beanie if you want someone very informed. The strawberry cough was so good i definitely downed it. My first time being in one of these places and everything you'd expect. A ton of 2 chainz on the soundtrack and chill atmosphere. A ton of pastry options but i stuck with the drink because it my first time drinking something infused. Definitely enough couch room to sit around be comfortable for awhile.

    Electric lemonade

    Wow. This was quite an experience. First of all, this is such a cute place! Me and my friends went together because we had heard of it but never gone. So well decorated and welcoming, it was fun to be inside. The staff was also super nice and helpful. They checked all our IDs before buying, so you know its legit. There were so many cute treats and sweets in a case, all SUPER high dosage. There was also a cute table which had banana grams on it, so we played for a bit. Well, I did. Taste wise, all our drinks were delicious. My friend got the "electric lemonade," which lived up to its name. It was this crazy blue purple color, and actually tasted electric. It was so sweet and very sour, and left a bit of a taste in the mouth. I got the London twist infused ice tea, which was also good and left a bit of a taste as well. This was to be expected, of course, and I'm used to a bit of a weed taste in edibles, I've had worse. But my one friend that doesn't like the weed taste that much didn't like it, so be expectant of that. Now in terms of dosage. WARNING: these will knock you out. if your tolerance to weed is low, split a drink with someone or only drink half to start. I had heard from another friend that though the dosages seem high (starting at 30mg and going to 90mg), they aren't that pungent, and I would be fine with 30. This wasn't the case for me. When doing edibles, I usually take in the 5mg-10mg range, but I tried the 30mg in my drink, since that was the lowest option available. I drank slowly, and not 20 minutes into my drink, I started to feel it just a little. 45 minutes in, I was already buzzing like crazy. I was on the train with my friend and I couldn't stop talking, but I also kept forgetting what I was saying while I was saying it. We got off the train and went to this estate sale, and I did my best to keep it together. It wasn't the kind of high where I couldn't talk, but it was damn near close. The other thing about this high was that it went on FOREVER. Literally, I drank the tea at 12pm, and by 11pm I still felt a little high. I think I even felt a bit the next morning. Its important to say- do not drink this whole drink if you have a low tolerance like me and have stuff to do that day. I wish I could have done this on a day where I had less stuff to do and less grandparents to talk to, but now I know for the future. I will be back, though. April 20th, I will be the first in line!!

    Barbie pink coconut chai

    TLDR; Super helpful & sweet service with the STRONGEST HIGH from a drink ever This was my first time visiting this location and I didn't know the store was closing up and was taking my time choosing something, but the baristas were patient & still took my order which was super nice of them. I ordered the Barbie Pink Coconut Chai with the lowest Micro dose and a blueberry Cheesecake for my boyfriend. Side note: a while back, I remember one time my friend ordered a cookie from a different wake n bakery and shared that said cookie with 4 people and we were still victims of the potency. The pink portion of the drink had no flavor so I had to mix it with the rest of the chai but it was still so delicious. And then literally, I had not finished like even half of my drink and I was completely zooted out of this world. It packed a huge punch. Well worth the money lol. Haven't tried the cheesecake YET. But when I do, I will update!! But love the location, it's really spacious and the decorations inside are super cute!! Will be returning again absolutely!!

    Woah!!! Gamer changer over here... Anna and Matt made the best experience for my bestie and I. We took a lunch break that never ended... filled with laughs... hourly snacks... and just a damn good time... we tried everything our bodies would allow, not at one time! 1Latte ...2 Lemonades.... 3 cupcakes.... And Bam! Best day ever! See you sooooooon!

    My friend lives in the neighborhood so we stopped in for some treats. They have tons of yummy baked goods and drinks (with or without thc). I got the lavender vanilla latte which was so delicious and definitely had me buzzed for a few hours. Everyone there was so sweet and they have a lot of seating. Definitely recommend stopping by if you're in the area!

    Wake-n-bakery on Division is the absolute cutest! The interior is so vibrant and inviting , especially with all the games laid out for you and your friends to play while enjoying their drinks or bakery goods. Depending on how much infused you get, the price might shock you a bit, but the good drinks and fun time will definitely have you coming back every now and then.

    I heard about this place from my friends as I arrived from O'hare, so of course we headed straight there. We went inside and I was curious of course, walking around and taking pictures of everything and I noticed only one employee was speaking to us. The other two sported matching scowls of indifference. I asked a question about the baked goods and you would have thought I asked for her first born child. The baked goods looked dry as all hell and the dosing was all over the place, with D8 to boot. So wait. We have stink attitudes, unappealing offerings and overpriced D8 infusions??? Yeah, thanks, but no thanks. I was turned off by this point, but we drove all the way here. We ordered 3 non-dosed drinks (teas and lemonades) and a snagged an infused, canned, oat milk latte for later. The Ravenclaw tea was cloyingly sweet, like even after all the ice melted. My friend got some other drinks and they made it through about half, I made it through 1/4 and ended up pouring out. Ugh. The coffee drink was okay flavor wise, glad it was unsweetened, it gave a mellow little buzz, I slept well afterwards. Needless to say I will not likely return.

    First time coming I ordered the Wreckage Watermelon and it hits! I will def be back. I enjoyed the berry edge gummies as well. I love the staff and the ambiance.

    This is my absolute most favorite bakery. So this is my ode to the bakery and Dom, who is a gem of…read morean employee there. I've been a customer of almost 10 years and have been obsessed since they first opened their doors at a different location. I literally live an hour away without traffic and even longer with traffic, but I make sure to stop by or send someone else to get it for me at least once a month or more. I love the amazing cakes that are so delicious and unique but on top of that, it is Asian owned, LGBTQ supporting, etc. A lot has changed since their little storefront with no seating. The bakery is now a full on cafe and I'm so happy to see how much they've grown and how successful they are. And while it is glorious, I will say I miss the sweet neighborhood charm and great customer service it used to have. Getting in touch with the bakery through phone or text can be tough and to be honest, sometimes one of the people working there is kind of...very mean. It had me questioning if I should keep coming back. I just love this bakery so much though and being raised by parents that had a small food business, I can't help but want to support. I had a particularly difficult last minute request for the bakery a few weeks ago and I was reminded why this place is so great. It had been YEARS since I made this specific request, which was an order for a slice of cake for every flavor and a cupcake for every flavor. This is a BIG and time consuming request, especially if it's last minute. Unfortunately I come to the city whenever the traffic isn't atrocious, so it's always last minute. Dom absolutely pulled through though. Even though there were other employees there (I saw two others but one disappeared and then another male was kind of walking around the cafe and such), Dom took this giant request and fulfilled it himself. The other gentleman (not the mean person previously mentioned) was actually who I made the request to, but he told Dom to do it. I was kind of confused why they didn't do it together but idk, maybe the other guy isn't allowed to handle food? Who knows. Regardless, this request obviously took a long time and the line was getting longer; people were getting a little restless but Dom stayed calm but was swift. I swear he was moving faster than most people in the industry could with a cake knife like that. He was not impatient or rude to me at all. He was just there to do his job as fast and well as possible. It's so rare to see that type of work ethic. He is also so obviously proud of the bakery and the food they serve which makes you feel good about being a patron there. So although I continue to have an unpleasant experience with one particular employee there, Dom keeps my love for this bakery alive. He reminds me of what this bakery was like when they first opened their doors. I hope Dom is cherished there and I bet he is considering his work ethic. I will continue to support this bakery and I recommend everyone else to support as well. It may not be that small little shop anymore but Dom is a reminder of the heart of the place.

I was lucky enough to snag a parking spot from someone pulling out right in front, and I was even happier to skip the line and walk straight in to pick up my order. Order ahead--it is absolutely the move. The drinks aren't sitting around waiting for pickup either. It seemed like they were making my matcha latte right as I arrived, which I appreciated. The star of the show was the huckleberry pastry--absolutely worth the hype. The longanisa breakfast sandwich was delicious but very substantial. For us, one sandwich was the perfect amount to share among three people; I think it would feel pretty heavy as a solo breakfast. The apple hand pie was one of the best I've had, and even the simple cookie was surprisingly delicious. We also tried a blueberry muffin, which was solid as well. The restaurant itself is cute, the space is clean, and the restrooms were spotless. Would I go back? Absolutely. But next time I'll definitely follow the pro tip and order ahead.

Showed up on a Friday morning at 730, was third in line, and waited 90 minutes. By 8am that line was already down to the end of the block. Just take my advice on this. My favorite thing about this place was how they let people in. One party at a time. Makes the atmosphere and ambiance inside feel more cozy and warm with none of that viral sensation nonsense. Best part is, when I finally ordered, the guy at the counter was super chill. Let me ask a few questions, was patient and kind. None of that viral sensation snobbery that comes with these kinds of places. Food time. The truffle croissant was unlike any other croissant I ever had. Despite the truffle it was also kind of sweet, I don't know it just works. Not hype at all. Our sticky bun had dimensions of deep burnt caramel flavor. Flavors kept unfolding with every chew. We are lumpia addicts so we had to try these. Absolutely delicious, but at over 10 bucks, anyone that knows lumpia knows you can get a dozen for like 5 bucks at strip mall type joints. And now for the main event. The breakfast sandwich with sausage, hash brown, and extra cheese was truly exceptional. It was textural bliss combined with the flavor bomb from the Filipino sausage. Would I wait 90 minutes again for another one, probably not. But I'm glad I did it just the same.

I was skeptical at first because it is a local chain, rather than a singular location. However, it lived up to the hype. Service: it was extremely busy when we came in. The line was almost out the door. They have a system in place for ordering and seating so it worked well and fast given how busy they were. We didn't have any questions on where to order or where to stand when waiting for a seat. The staff were friendly and helped us find a spot to sit at. Ambiance: classic cafe in a city. Loud chatter, but it's a vibe. Very colorful and fun interior with cool textural elements. We had a seat that was facing the street so it was fun to people watch as we sipped and ate. Food: amazing breakfast selection! We ordered the morning sandwich and barbacoa bowl. The morning sandwich had THICK scrambled eggs which were super soft and tasty. I could've used more salsa verde on it. The bread was barely toasted. I'd rate the sandwich a 3.8/5. It got the job done. The barbacoa bowl was "really good" according to my fiancé. A great source of protein, fresh ingredients, nice flavor, and great portions. He would rate it a 5/5. Coffee: I am a coffee snob so I am quite harsh when it comes to reviewing it. Their machine is a cute La Marzocco. Appropriate sized "for-here" glasses according to the drinks. Plus, they were really cute. Wide variety of drink selection from your standards to the more girly-drinks (if there is such a thing). We ordered a cappuccino and small hot mocha. Latte art 4.5/5, temperature 5/5, flavor 4/5. The espresso didn't stand out to me, very standard flavor profile. However, the chocolate in the mocha was delicious. It's more of a rich, dark chocolate. Nice thin layer of foam. Would recommend to try at least once when you're in Chicago! Glad to have stopped in.

The croissant wasn't filled, it just had pistachio cream on the top with a couple of nuts. I would order the shaksouka pastry again. The egg was cooked well, and the tomato was very good. They were supposed to heat it up, but it wasn't warm.

Let me tell you, it was all I hoped it could be and more. The storefront was pretty small with a few tables- between the size, hours, and popularity (they were only open a few days a week and closed at 2pm), I suspected that the shop sold out often. I went on a weekday and there was still a good selection of pastries left around 11am. The staff was super nice and helpful as I struggled to make a decision. They shared that the strawberry milk croissant was their bestseller, so I opted for that. It was filled with fresh strawberry mascarpone and fresh strawberry puree.

    Holy freakin best bakery in the nation! Sugar Moon is a local fave in Logan Square--and for all the…read morereasons possible. They make scrumptious cookies, pastries, danishes, chai cinnamon rolls, the whole shebang. Our eyes were nonstop drooling over all of the fresh goodies. I had such a hard time choosing, but knew I had to get the corn flake espresso cookie (SO FRICKIN AMAZING) the textures were elite, and the potato focaccia. The southwest hash brioche was friggin incredible. They were very generous with the sweet potato, WHOLE EGG, and veg. Like seriously, with the cost of groceries skyrocketing, I can't believe I got a whole bit of egg white and yolk. You must eat your goodies warm, the initial crunch had me in a chokehold. They also had a vegan focaccia which my friends appreciated. There's street parking and expect lines. Inside isn't super spacious, but the line does move. Bring sunnies and a book if you don't like to stand around. We got here before they opened on a Saturday morning and only had to wait like 15mins. They also sell cute lil Sugar Moon merch like fun tshirts and cards. Would 100% come back to get morning pastries from them. Super queer friendly as well. MUST visit.

    Ugh, I dream about their chai rolls. And that espresso cornflake crunch cookie! Obscene…read more You can't go wrong with anything here. I will say the savory items are definitely on the salty side though. I wish they were 20% less salty! I had ordered the miso mushroom brioche, asparagus foccaccia, and poblano brioche. It's worth the trek and the line. You'll probably end up eating from the box on the curb nearby, since inside seating is TIGHT. I live in SF and we don't mess around when it comes to bakeries. I will be returning to Sugar Moon next time I'm in Chicago. Wait for me, my love.

    Inside of Focaccia ($5/slice) - harissa cauliflower, caramelized onion, gouda, cheddar, rosemary. Delicious.

    Inside of Sweet Brioche ($5.50) - cara cara orange & passionfruit filling. It's nice: the dough is rich and chewy.

    Just sad I didn't discover this pastry shop sooner! On a Friday afternoon, they were bustling! They…read morehad some different indoor seating options, most of which were occupied by either people working or friends chatting. It was a pleasant atmosphere and cute decor, but I ended up taking my goods to go. It was hard to decide between all the enticing options but the friendly woman working the register pointed me to their popular chocolate cake and it did not disappoint! More of a mousse than a cake but it was rich and utterly divine. I also tried their spinach feta croissant, which was ok but I'm not convinced the right vessel for that filling. I also appreciated some of their baked goods were reasonable prices so you could easily try something for under $5 or alternatively splurge for the finer pastries.

    First visit here, I got some yummy desserts to take home. We grabbed cheesecake, peanut butter…read moretart, chocolate cake and some French Macarons. All desserts were delicious. My French Macarons were even good several days later. On the first occasion the attendant had already put stuff up and was rushing us to close. Even though we got there wit more than 30 minutes before closing time. We tried to come back a few days later as I really wanted that vanilla bean cheesecake again but they were closed. It was closed 30min prior to time advertised on website. We were bummed. While searching for nearby bakeries, we saw several other people try to patronize this business. So overall probably a 4 stars but knocking a star for not advertising the correct hours. Luckily we were already in the area but I would have been mad if made a venture up here and it was closed. I wouldn't bank on this for an after dinner treat. Get your stuff during the day as the hours are not dependable.
