Bennison's Bakery

Bennison’s has been a standard tradition in Evanston for years and now I understand why. From the moment you walk in the front door you feel like you are being transported to yesteryear! The staff is friendly and kind. All of the sweets and treats were perfect choices. The macaroons were lovely as well. We sat outside on the patio …

Stopped by Bennison's after seeing their very prominent and classic neon sign on the corner. The bakery really has an impressive selection of breads, cakes, cookies, and pastries available for purchase. I ended up getting a 6-pack of cheddar scallion biscuits (which were super delicious warmed up) and some Italian cookies. Everything was truly great and I will definitely be …

Such a fantastic, cute little bakery to go to. My partner and I buy pastries like croissants, donuts and muffins pretty often. (especially their spinach and feta croissants, and maple longjones) They also have different stuff they bake weekly to experiment with, like everything cream cheese croissants, jalapeño cheddar sourdough, and other yummy goods. We also get our sourdough bread …

Huge thanks to Bennison's Bakery for donating their delicious croissants to my Spanish class! Everyone absolutely loved them—flaky, buttery, and perfectly baked. Your generosity made our lesson extra special. ¡Muchísimas gracias! 🥐💛

Bought an almond croissant and the flavor was yum. Service was awesome too..employees were very helpful with answering questions about items in display. Prices were reasonable for all items.

The cutest little spot in Evanston ❤️ We ordered our wedding cake through Bennison's, and they were wonderful to work with. I wanted a small, vintage cake for my husband and I to cut at our reception, and not only did the cake we picked up match my vision- it was also so, so delicious (we did a white cake …

Went on a Saturday morning. Place was packed and there was nowhere to sit. Staff trying to herd people through. Stated to set an understanding of the vibe. If you don't like pressure or a little stress ordering, go somewhere with table service. We had Paczkis and Croissants. The apricot and jalapeno+everything were stunningly good both as concepts and as …

I live in the area and go here quite often - it’s such a lovely place! Warm inside with a variety of wonderful baked goods. I’m actually surprised to see people complain about the price, I think they’re quite fair overall. They’re a local bakery serving treats daily since the 30’s. To me their pastries measure up! I haven’t had …

I needed something really fast, and this bakery did not disappoint! Service was friendly and they had a wide variety of pastries that all looked delicious!

A true Evanston staple. Bennison’s has been around for almost a century and has stayed true to its family-owned practices. The interior is small, but the bakery items are not. You’ll be treated to the fresh scent of bread, butter, coffee, and rich caramelization as soon as you walk through the doors marked by their bright neon sign. It’ll be …
