Fat Peach Bakery

Bakery · Bridgeport

"When Fat Peach opened in Bridgeport, the customers flooded the business with lines stretching across Archer. The bakery had a tough act to follow, replacing Bridgeport Bakery, which has served the neighborhood for over 50 years. But pastry lovers have taken to the new energy, enjoying treats like strawberry-milk-filled croissants, and other treats that mix French pastry with flavors from all over the world, including some Mexican influences. Fat Peach is a unique bakery that strikes a chord with Chicagoans of all cultures." - Ashok Selvam
