Quack's 43rd Street Bakery

"Known for the Moo Deng cookie and fun dining experiences." - Nadia Chaudhury

"The Hyde Park bakery dishes up all of the expected and delicious pies, which means fruit ones like apple cinnamon, cherry, and key lime, as well as chocolate or coconut creams, available by the slice or whole. Takeout orders can be placed online or in person; there are indoor and outdoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury

"Quack’s Bakery has been around in some form or another since the 1980s, so they’ve had plenty of time to get their scones, danishes, and chocolate twist croissants just right. These aren’t the fancy pastries you’ll see plastered on social media—they’re more homestyle and probably made with an unreasonable amount of butter. It’s also a no-frills space—you’re here to grab your pastries and enjoy them at home or on one of the patio tables facing a charming section of Hyde Park. We like the cherry danishes and the sugared cinnamon rolls, but they also make a solid jalapeño-cheddar sausage kolache if you’re in the mood for something savory.  " - nicolai mccrary
