"Finally made it to Kneads & Wants Bakery in Skokie. The reason I was there was to try my favorite Kouign-amann (caramelized and buttery decadent pastry). 💕 I also got an Almond Croissant to go. I was not disappointed and will definitely be back. Yummy!"

"Super cute handmade and locally owned bakery right in the heart of Skokie. I love their almond croissants and ham and cheese croissants. We also purchased a blueberry breakfast cake as well as a banana almond breakfast cake. It was very easy to park across the street and zip in to this cute bakery for some great handmade food items.. You can really tell that these items are handmade locally, everything was fresh and wonderful. We definitely will be back for coffee as well as some of their handmade quiche!"

"Cashier seemed happy to see other customers before us. Once my wife and I got to the register that changed. No smile what so ever. And then proceeded to smile to the next customer after us. Just did not feel welcomed and will not be returning. Lattes were great! So thats a positive!"

"⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I ordered Thanksgiving pies from [Bakery Name], and they were a huge hit! The butterscotch cream pie was rich, creamy, and indulgent — everyone loved it. The apple crumble pie was perfectly baked with a flaky crust and just the right amount of sweet, spiced filling. Highly recommend for any special occasion or just to treat yourself. The quality and flavor truly exceeded my expectations. I’ll definitely be ordering again!"

"You KNEAD to visit this place!! It's awesome, Staff is very friendly and welcoming. Their Breakfast sandwiches are huge. I got their What the Cluck and it was delicious 😋 I couldn't eat it all and took the rest to go. The pastries looked so good so I got a box of cookies on the way out!! Very fresh! I think they make them daily! Would highly recommend 👌"
