"I'm a Pastry Chef and I have been coming here for years. Wonderful menu opens that are made fresh with high quality ingredients. Breads are made fresh daily, with no added conditioners or chemicals. The staff are so friendly and make the best sandwiches and coffees. I force myself to try something new each time and not I can't decide which sandwich is my favorite. Great caffe to get work done or just stop by for a quick sandwich. 100% need everyone to come try this place."

"Good place good variety of pastries, breads and sandwiches. Breakfast sandwiches aren't available past 10:30 during the week. Then all the other lunch sandwiches are just cold but the bread is tasty and soft. Creative sandwiches On the pastry side ordered an almond croissant it had minimal amount of the actual almond paste which is the best part. Was hoping for a little bit more. Then ordered a almond paste scone which seemed very creative figuring that the inside of the scone had almond paste actually in it but when I spoke with the lead Baker he just said it's in there somewhere but it's really not where you can actually enjoy the paste itself. The consistency is just a scone itself. That was a bit of a disappointment since the almond paste is always the best part of any pastry."

"I have been frequenting Rustic Knead for a while now. My kids' school is nearby so we love to go for lunch. Their sandwiches are fantastic. Fresh ingredients thoughtfully put together. Today however, I had Rustic Knead cater a company breakfast event for me. I had 120 attendees and Rich put together an amazing spread for us. Fresh pastries, muffins, fruit cups, parfait, coffee, tea and Orange Juice bottles. Really impressive the amount of food and the QUALITY of food that was served. Does not even compare to the typical Hotel Catering we are used to during these conferences. So if you have any corporate events for breakfast or lunch anywhere near this location in Lemont or anywhere near their Frankfort IL location, please look them up. VERY IMPRESSIVE service, on time and DELICIOUS !!! (And they were totally in line with their pricing compared to all the usual hotel catering we were used to. Just the quality was significantly better)"

"I am newer to Lemont and well I found not only the hot spot but my favorite place. The atmosphere was very cozy, lots of people rushing out w large bags of goodies and I found the prices for breakfast, lunch and salads to be very fair. For under $7 this is the largest breakfast sami I have seen and the taste, the bread and combination of flavors WOW!!! Highly recommend the Southwest Breakfast Sandwich!"

"I recently dined at Rustic Knead and was thoroughly impressed. The ambiance was warm and inviting, creating the perfect setting for a delightful meal. The menu featured a variety of fresh, locally sourced ingredients, and each dish was a masterpiece. The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring our dining experience was exceptional. I particularly loved their artisan bread, which was baked to perfection. The flavors were rich and balanced, leaving me eager to return. Rustic Knead is a true gem, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience."
