Welcome to the Corner Bakery Cafe!
A brand that is filled to the brim with passionate people, creative thinkers, overachievers, servant leaders and folks having a blast doing what they do best – helping others.
In November of 1991, we started as a small bakery supplying artisan breads to guests throughout Chicago. Over time we have evolved into a neighborhood gathering spot serving up made-to-order breakfasts, lunches, dinners and everything in between. Get it to go, dine in or have it catered. We do it all!
The traditions that were created years ago are still practiced today. You will find real kitchens where over 40 types of fresh herbs, fruits and vegetables are chopped daily. You’ll see the stove’s open flames where eggs are scrambled to order, salads being hand-tossed and ovens going all day long, filling the cafes with the aroma of freshly baked breads and sweets.
Our passionate and welcoming Breadheads are the heart and soul of our brand, making our guests feel at home and connected to their neighborhoods.
