I've gone here a couple of times already, and I've always enjoyed the food; The sandwichs here are my favorite. I love that they have the kiosk machine to order through as well, and they've got a few outlets around so its a nice place to study at.

The food is NOT like what they are in the pictures. They also messed our order up so there is no reason to spend extra on customizing it. The pancakes are made from pennies and taste like them too. The pancakes are heinous. The pasta is great though. Order the pasta if you choose this place. And the cinnamon roll.

I've been going to Corner Bakery for breakfast when I'm in Chicago for over 20 years. As usual, I was not disappointed. The food was delicious and filling. There were a bunch of options, and the food came pretty quickly.
There were a couple of minor issues with the service, which is why I only gave it four stars. The tables weren't cleaned quickly, so I had to look around for a while to find a clean spot to sit. They didn't have the tea flavor I wanted. I didn't realize the croissant and brownie I ordered were both cold until I was ready to eat them. The server didn't ask if I wanted them warmed. They were quick to refill the jam basket after I pointed it out, though, so that was nice.

This was my first time at Corner Bakery, and it definitely won’t be my last. I stopped in on a hectic day in downtown Chicago, the streets were buzzing, and so was this spot. The place was packed, which is usually a good sign, and I decided to go with my gut and order the Carved Ham & Swiss sandwich along with an Arnold Palmer to drink.

Let me just say: what a sandwich. From the first bite, I could tell there was thought behind the ingredients. The pecan wood smoked ham had this deep, subtly sweet flavor with just a hint of smokiness that made it feel hearty and comforting. The Swiss cheese was creamy and mellow, balancing the boldness of the ham without overpowering it.

What really stood out to me were the layers of tomato and red onion, the tomato brought a fresh juiciness, while the red onion added just enough bite to wake up your taste buds. And then there’s the stoneground mustard, It had a bold, tangy character with a little grainy texture that gave the sandwich a rustic, gourmet feel.

All of this was wrapped in a crispy-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside baguette, which held everything together beautifully and added that satisfying crunch with each bite. Paired with a refreshing Arnold Palmer, it made for a quick but incredibly enjoyable meal in the middle of a bustling city day.

Highly recommend it if you're in the area and need something fast, filling, and full of flavor.
