Sugar Fixé Pâtisserie

My partner and I have just recently moved to Oak Park and I have been looking for a good coffee place with no luck. I pass by here on my way to work every day and decided to try it out. It is single handedly the best coffee I’ve ever had. Hot, iced, whatever you get feels like a warm hug. The atmosphere is amazing along with the people working there. So far I’ve had the Pumpkin Pie Latte, Chocolate Ganache, and The Miel. I’ve loved them all so much that I can’t even pick a favorite. If you’re in the area this place is definitely worth checking out, and if not, it’s worth the travel!

This is a secret hidden gem! Best chocolate croissants I have ever had. Since becoming vegan, it is the one thing I find myself dreaming about. The chai latte is also wonderful. Just simply walking past this coffee shop, you can smell the baked goods drawing you in for a sweet treat.

Sugar Fixé did the most amazing custom cake for a Mozzarella Stick theme birthday! Not only was the cake delicious, the mozzarella sticks looked real. Cannot recommend Corrie and her team enough!

Stopped by to pick up chocolate croissants and regular coffee to go. The people behind the counter were very nice and offered good conversation while I waited for my coffee. The croissant was DELICIOUS buttery and flaky and seemed very fresh. The coffee was strong and also fresh. Totally recommend!

The new atmosphere at Sugar Fixe is charming. I place you want to hang even indoors ( outdoors has always been fun). Pastries look great. Very skilled bakers and warm inviting staff. Nash helped me along with lots of holiday cheer!

Sugar fixe made my daughter’s mermaid-themed birthday cake and it was beautiful! And delicious!

We love their treats and delicious lattes! You’re always greeted with smiles and friendly faces!

Incredible cake and absolutely flawless execution of our design vision. We loved our wedding cake so much, and so did all of our guests. (When I the took my first bite of the cake, I literally screamed because it was so good.) We can’t recommend Sugar Fixe enough. Thank you so much for making our retro-inspired wedding cake dreams come true, Corey!

Our wedding cake was beautiful and enjoyed by everyone. We couldn't decide on a flavor during our tasting, so we picked two: lemon with white chocolate ganache and lemon curd for half of the cake, and dark chocolate raspberry for the other half! Corrie was very responsive throughout the process and easy to work with.

We were in search of a sweet little treat and this cafe was one of the few still open in the afternoon! They had so many beautiful pastries to choose from. I ended up going with the paris-brest. It was so light and airy, filling yet not too sweet. The cream inside was hazelnut and the dough was so light and easy to break apart. It was really really good! My friend ordered a cheesecake with chocolate ganache on top, also amazing. I'm so glad we found this place!

Delicious pastries!!! Loved everything I ordered. There are a few seats inside, but it's more like a takeaway spot, so I would not expect to come here and hunker down with work/studying, or to meet up with a larger group. It seems they use quality/fresh ingredients and clearly the pastry chef knows what they are doing, but the prices were jawdropping. If you want a really good pastry and don't mind shelling out $$$$ for it, I'd recommend this place. But if you're looking for a neighborhood spot that is affordable enough for everyday/regular coffee and pastries, this is probably not the place. As for parking, there are a few metered parking lots nearby, but can be challenging to find a spot on the weekend.

Great deserts. I recently discovered the cheesecake. So good! We love coming here every time we get a chance. Marion street is such a fun street for treats and shopping. This place only has a few tables inside but when the water is warm you can sit outside.

Breading inside was delicious, but the icing tasted more like just butter and it was pretty hard, but it looked exactly like the reference picture and employees were very polite and helpful.

They have amazing macarons, raspberry is my personal favorite. But when I went in to get a plain croissant it tasted off, maybe it would have been better If I heated it up. But otherwise its a cute shop with nice desserts.

I received a gift card for me to enjoy a cup of cappuccino and two macarons. Located on the corner Oak Park Downtown area. Open for carry outs or indoor dining. French pastry shop that serves cakes, croissants and macarons that has an open kitchen. Great selections of delicious looking pastries, cookies and macarons. I ended up ordering the raspberry and pink champagne macarons. I'm not a Big fan of macarons but the flavors of these two were pretty good. The cappuccino was a bit too strong and bitter for my taste buds. The service was nice. Prices are decent

Sugar Fixe did a fantastic job on my wedding cake. The whole process was easy and the tasting was great and they easily understood my vision. Not to mention the flavors were amazing! They were even able to create a guava buttercream that I really wanted and it was delicious! I definitely recommend them for any custom cakes!

Best cream puffs around. Beautiful cream Everyone who works there is very nice and I had lovely conversation with the Baker about ingredients.

Nestled at the corner of Marion and Westgate, just north of Oak Park Green Line. This delightful shop has the best coffee, treats and service! I was impressed that the coffee was served at a drinkable heat level. Not too hot that I had to wait to drink it. I liked that. Offering various concoctions for your jolt of pleasure. The staff so friendly and happy. It's nice to see people happy in their work. Makes for happy customers too. This shop is dog friendly, outdoor cafe style seating.

Amazing desserts! A little on the fancier side, but worth every penny. Coffee is good, but not as good as many of the shops in town.

My husband and I got married on June 9th, 2023 and Sugar Fixe created our dream wedding cake! We worked with Corrie on designing on our cake and she knocked it out of the park! I originally presented a more traditional design idea, but after changing my mind and presenting her with something a bit more out of the box she was so excited! Corrie accepted the challenge to do something different and we are so happy that she was game! Not only was our cake whimsical and eye-catching, but it was delicious! We did not share the cake with our guests, but we did share with immediate family and the feedback was overwhelming. We did 3 layers (gingerbread with brown sugar filling, chocolate with cookies and cream filling, and lemon with rasberry filling). The gingerbread layer was my absolute favorite! If you are considering working with Corrie at Sugar Fixe, act now! She was responsive, fun, easy to work with, helpful and a true pleasure to meet! She went out of her way to communicate with us and answered many questions along the way. We love you Corrie and can't wait to work with you again sometime in the future!

Great desserts but management and customer service need some polishing. I buy chocolate puffs for 10 resident physicians at least monthly and without fail something comes up with my order. 1st it's late for pick up x1. Another time I'm sweetheart and hun by the person ringing up orders. Lastly, I called yesterday to have my order held a day, was told this was ok for next day pickup, confirmed with kitchen. When I picked up today, someone from the kitchen came out to tell me, not to do that again because the puffs are made for the time they are ordered. I explained that if that was their policy I would be happy to respect that but was told it was ok by their team memeber. He tried to reassure me that it wasn't a big deal just wanted to tell me for next time. Ok well their won't be a next time. Plenty other bakeries to support.

Placed a Pick Up order online and the date changed to Sunday so I went inside to see if the order could be purchased today. Guy sweeping the floor behind the counter who was talking loud enough for the people across the street to hear... insisted that quiche wasn't available as I looked at it in the glass case. Chef came to front and said "no problem" and handed same loud guy ticket to bag items. Never Washed his damn hands! Hygiene & Sanitation is a 0 and normally I would've walked out but promised friends pastries for our brunch/tea..... so I watched him to ensure that he used paper and didn't touch my items. As he's getting items he starts sweating like a pig during a luau and wiping away with his forearm - disgusting. Again, I watched to ensure none of his sweat cubes touched my pastries. Barista young lady with braids was so nice! The caramel vanilla late she made was phenomenal! Everyone in the shop complimented her beverages! He placed my pastries in the largest box ever so the cupcake slid around and was inedible as all of the frosting smeared onto the box. Items: Monkey bread Vanilla cupcake - threw away before eating 2 - salted Carmel macaroons Turkey & Gouda croissant Turkey Gouda Onion Quiche Asparagus turkey cheese quiche Blueberry lime tart Key lime tart Everything received decent reviews. I'll return but I won't allow the loud dirty guy to help me - No thanks!

Love their cakes and pastries! Favorites are the croissants! I've ordered specialty cakes quite a few times from here. I also ordered custom cookies for my bridal shower, and they turned out even better than I expected! They were always easy to work with as far as what I want for the order. I've also never had a problem with my order during pick up time. Highly recommend this bakery.

I recently ordered a cake from them for my husband's bday and was happy with the results. I got the chocolate cake with dark chocolate ganache and chocolate drip design on white buttercream. The chocolate cake was dense and moist and the rich chocolate ganache went great with it. It wasn't overly sweet which was surprising, as well. The cake design looked good, as well. Very pleased with this cake and would order it again.

We had a large order of some small pastries and three flavors of macaron made for our wedding reception. Everything was beautiful, and the communication was great! The price was right and I felt proud to serve my guests something fresh and elegant from a local patisserie. People went on and on about the macaron flavors- even non-adventurous eaters gave them a try! I was lucky there were a few leftover that we just popped in the fridge and ate for a week. Support this local business if you can- they are wonderful!

I ordered cake balls for an event from Sugar Fixe and we were so happy with the results! Each cake ball was customized (there are various options when you order) and individually packaged with a cute little sticker. They were perfect for a party and as an added bonus, extremely delicious! They're a bit on the expensive side, but for the flavor, packaging, helpfulness of the staff and overall ease of ordering, I'd say it was worth it. Pickup can be dicey if it's busy in the area as parking can get busy. Super cute spot, though small inside, so when we've stopped by, we usually take our treats to go. If the weather is nice, there are a few tables outside to sit and relax for a bit - it's very cute around here - so it's a great spot if you can snag a table. I went back to check out my old (over 8 years old! review) and I'd say that whatever was off about that day years ago has been corrected now.

Ok so we've been coming to sugar Fixe for years . It's gone down hill tremendously. The cleanliness is terrible . We arrived today and wanted to sit outside . The table was filthy . Wrappers and dirt . I took the wrapper off the table and got a napkin to wipe the dirty table . I came in to get my coffee and was accused of pulling a sign off the table . On my parents life I have no clue why the cat hat mask lady who worked there would accuse me of. She said a lady saw me do it . Yes I cleaned the table . NEVER pulled a sign off . The girl inside insisted I did it . Completely rude and terrible business help and practice . Most of the girls are ok except her . Mel does all the work . The girl w the cat ear hat just stands there . Barely can smile or get a hello / goodbye . She has always been very unfriendly. Seems like she hates her job . And it looks like they are losing customers as they aren't busy at all . Customer service is foremost equaling quality of products. Cleanliness is so important and they have failed on both points I have noticed this place getting dirtier and dirtier . Towels under their display cabinet . Windows filthy . I will never go back . Completely out of line accusation . W being insistent in the false accusation. And no apology . Out of line .

The cake was beautiful. Corrie was very nice at the tasting and very attentive to emails. She came up with the proposals rather quickly for cake designs we wanted. She didn't make us feel rushed at all. We took our time and got what we really wanted. The cake flavors were really interesting. They have flavors that we haven't seen at any other baker like lychee buttercream. Overall great service and delicious cake!

My husband and I came here for breakfast. The coffee is Julius Meinl and is amazing! Try the croissant with Gouda and Turkey. The monkey bread, passion fruit tart is also not to be missed. My husband gets the salted caramel chocolate bar every time. The staff is friendly and there is seating inside and out.

This bakery pulls you in as soon as you walk by. The display case is filled with gorgeous sweet and savory pastries. We split the pumpkin bar, quiche and scone...all insanely tasty. I loved the pastries because they weren't overly sweet like some places. The coffee is delicious here as well. Staff was so amazing too. Friendly with great recommendations.

It's like having a little piece of Ladurée. Such a cute and sweet place, literally. Makes me feel like I'm back in Paris

Loved the Betty White "stay golden" cookie! What an awesome way to commemorate her centennial with a delicious treat.

I was in the suburbs and chose a creative way to drive back to the city and found myself in Oak Park. We all know about the Frank Lloyd Wright elements all over this town. But I was certainly surprised at the fantastic square for shopping! By pure happenstance, I spied an adorable bakery. Sugar Fixe' Patisserie caught my eye with its adorable storefront and cute window displays. Of course I had to personally check it out. This business takes safety protocols very seriously. They allow only ONE customer in to the bakery at a time. Luckily I was first in line and didn't have to wait too long. I tried to check out the cases from outside the door while waiting my turn. Once I was allowed in, the three ladies working were eager to assist me. They were very gracious and friendly. I did feel a little bit of pressure to decide quickly as they watched me. I chose a gorgeous apple tart and beautifully dense cinnamon bread pudding. Wow. I'm hooked now. All the beautiful pastries large and small caught my eye but the layered flavors and rich textures of my choices have me spoiled. I keep thinking of those perfect desserts! This shopping area reminds me of a small town square. The steamed up storefront windows are reminiscent of Main Street in a Hallmark movie. The cute look of this bakery drew me in but the perfectly created pastries we bring me back. There is a ton of parking and a train stop nearby that makes it so easy to pay Sugar Fixe' Patisserie a visit even if you don't live in Oak Park.

There is only one real criteria for a bakery that has a French name. Les croissants sont-ils bon? Mais, oui! The sweet pastries aren't as interesting to me, but the cupcakes are good, the selection is fine for a fresh baked display, and you can see the baker busy in the back through a window on the side. This is a great stop after eating Katy's Dumplings around the corner, within a very short distance you can experience a French Indochina gastronomical adventure. Oak Park has some very inviting picnic tables between the two stores and also around are some very unique gift and curio shops. Right off the train. During the pandemic they were very good about limiting exposure between customers, I did not mind at all waiting outside so that only one customer was in the store at a time, and everyone was masked properly. Of course this is Oak Park which has a well educated populace but I think any store that takes maximum COVID19 prevention measures will continue to prioritize health and safety after the Pandemic. If there is an after the Pandemic. My big fear is that in the post-viral apocalypse, there won't be any proper croissants or café au lait. You know, kind of like Milwaukee.

Wait : none for Sunday night ( we get there 45 minutes before they close) Ambience: cute and quiet, gazing through the window with a cup of coffee is a nice feeling Service: friendly Food : pastries looked interesting. I tried pecan tart and cranberry tart. Both of them are delicious but a bit sweet side. Price : normal range Overall: won't mind to come back if it's on the way

I purchased my MIL some sweets for Mothers Day. I went early in the morning and the staff was so sweet they came out to bring water for my dog and gave him a pup cup with whipped cream. They went above and beyond and we're all just super friendly and kind. My MIL loved all the desserts we picked out as well. Highly recommend!!!

We had iced coffee and tarte while visiting oak park city. Tarte was so so. Ice coffee was pricey and too much ice cube.

Very dissappointing! The customer service has taken a serious nosedive! The staff is abrupt and generally grumpy, counters are dirty and smeared with the remnants of sold pastry, which makes me wonder how clean the kitchen is. Pastries were in disarry.. It used to be such a great place. Messy, dirty and grumpy does not work.

I ordered a fairly large baby shower cake - vanilla, fresh cream and strawberry preserve - and it was STUPENDOUS! the most delicious cake I have ever had!! Every single person in that party raved about how delicious the cake was. I will never forget that first taste! Well done!!!!!!! I will come back, again and again!

This bakery has different options from savory to sweet. I decided to order a vanilla cake pop , red velvet cupcake and a chocolate cup cake. Vanilla Cake Pop: is on the smaller side. The flavor is there but it was dry and it caused me to dislike the texture. Chocolate cupcake: Rich in chocolate but I dislike the whip creme frosting! Red Velvet: I love the flavor of the cupcake and it was very moist. The cream cheese frosting is the best!

The space is small and if someone is loud and holding court, it takes away from the enjoyment of the pastries. The space is small feeling more in the way than feeling cozY. The coffee is not all that inspiring. The cupcakes were dry and an oily icing that left a slick feeling in our mouth. Not sure I'd try those again. Maybe some of the other pastries are better, but so far not high on the list of places to stop.

If we could give more than 5 stars we would! Corrie did an amazing amazing job! She was very responsive throughout the whole process and we had a great tasting experience being able to taste many flavors to find the perfect combination! Other cakes we had tasted prior to Sugar Fixe were hard, some even seemed frozen, and did not even come close with the unique flavors Sugar Fixe offers. When we saw the cake on our wedding day we absolutely loved it! It was even more amazing than we could imagine it was going to be. We almost didn't want to cut it and when we did for the first taste it was mouth watering. So many guests complimented us on the cake and how delicious it was! Thank you so very much for your hard work on creating the cake of our dreams and we can't wait for another special occasion to get another cake from you!

I went here for my birthday to go and grab some macaroons and they were super good i loved the pumpkin ones They were just over all super tasty and kind service. i came there because i did not want to spend a whole lot of money on a cake and i was pleasantly surprised with those macaroons!

Adorable and precious French bakery. I've not had the chance quite often to find a patisserie that isn't a chain. I'm a huge fan of macarons so I ordered my fair share! I got vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, and Nutella. My fave was the vanilla. Was just so divine and delicate. My boyfriend got the berry cheesecake and it was out of this world delicious and I loved the crust crumb. Lastly I got the black tea lemonade. SO delicious and refreshing on a hot day. I loved the taste. Lastly, the girls working were all young and sweet, it definitely added to the overall charming vibe of the place. Next time I want to try the lemon tart! Yum! Can't wait to be back.

I visited this establishment on a few occasions in the past and I always go for the macarons. It has been a while since my last visit, which was about a week ago. I ordered 14 macarons, very excited to eat them and share with family and friends. A few of us had tried them and they crumbled so bad. I could see if it was one or two, but they all were like that. I have a favorite place for macarons, but I appreciate this place because of its convenience. The macarons are already too small for their price, but when fresh they can be worth it. When I called to share my experience, the lady who answered the phone was very shocked and claimed that this was the first time anyone has had a bad experience with the macarons. The solution to this problem was a gift card that amounted to the total of my purchase. Though I may never buy macarons again from them, the gift card grants me the opportunity to try something else.

Sugar Fixe provided macarons, mini fruit tartlets, and mini cupcakes for my bridal shower a few weeks ago. Not only were they able to do this for me with only a couple week turnaround time, but they did a truly incredible job with everything! They were organized, communicative, and timely in delivering each item. Each baked good was delicious, but I think my favorites were the fruit tartlets! They were such a refreshing pop of color and flavor, and a unique addition to my dessert table. They were able to create a tower of macarons in pink ombre with gold splatter for me, which was just incredible! They had such great flavors too: vanilla, raspberry, and lychee rose. The mini cupcakes were red velvet and vanilla, and both were a total hit with my guests. In addition to everything tasting incredible, each staff member that I spoke to was so kind and treated me in such a special way. I cannot express how appreciated it was. I cannot wait to utilize Sugar Fixe again for gorgeous and delicious desserts for future events!

So many scrumptious choices, it took me several minutes to make a decision. Sugar Fixe had a wide array from giant macarons to fancy tarts. We'd been touring around Oak Park all day and missed lunch, so I went for a slice of savory quiche with roasted veggies. Yum! The quiche was delicious, but the crust got a tad chewy when they heated it up in the microwave for me. I'm sure if it had a chance to come to room temp or was heated up in an oven, it would have been flaky. I couldn't face all those amazing desserts and not take one home. I went with their salted caramel and chocolate bar. The super-rich caramel and velvety, chocolate mousse were a perfect match. My friend tried two of the small macarons and took a passion fruit dessert home. He raved about the cookies and my bite of his choice almost made me doubt my decision. It was light and fluffy - truly fantastic. Everything we had from Sugar Fixe tasted as if they were prepared with quality ingredients with care and attention to details.

I chose Sugar Fixe to create a cake for my Dad's 75th surprise birthday party. I always loved their sweets, read the reviews, so I thought, why not! However, since there are other fabulous bakeries around, I considered them as well, especially when researching cost. But during the process of trying to decide, Sugar Fixe won me over for their amazing service. The owner Cindy was great, but I dealt mostly with Karen, who was amazing. I had a general concept in mind, but kept changing in terms of style and budget. She was always patient, warm, and incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. It was also extremely convenient because I was able to do everything by email and phone. The end result was an amazing looking and tasting cake which fit my budget, and best of all a very happy papa! I will definitely be using them again!

Sugar Fixe is my neighborhood bakery. I have in the past ordered cupcakes and a few cakes. One cake I ordered was for a bunco themed birthday party and the pastry chef made dice out of fondant for the top that were so precise you could actually roll them. I have also purchased cookies many times from this location. The macrons are always good. My favorite is the pistachio flavored. My one issue is the coffee - I am not the biggest fan of the coffee. I will not give them too much of a problem on the coffee though because I am very particular. I drink a lot of coffee. I prefer that it walks to my cup on it's own but tastes like a liquid cupcake. They did have excellent hot Apple Cider last fall if you are into the fall flavors. The store itself is cute and is in one of my favorite parts of Oak Park on Marion St. It's a pleasant place to sit and people watch.

Ordered a choco croissant. I wasn't expecting it to taste the way it did. Almost like coconut oil rubbed in sugar that didn't desolidify. It wasn't good.

We're coming to Sugar Fix from day one, used to few times a week but now since the new owners we coming once in a few weeks and every time is another disappointment, the tables are dirty, no silverware and the stuff a spatially the lady with (cow ears) is very unprofessional and most of the time rude!...Good luck surviving!...

Wanted to update this review after finally passing this stop in-person. It has since become one of my favorite places to stop and grab a snack from. I stand by my initial review that the Postmates service with Sugar Fixe was a horrible experience. But, pushing that aside, I stumbled past here after writing that review and thought, "Hell, might as well go inside." I ordered some macaroons and a chai tea latte my first time. All were delicious. Something wonderful about the macaroons are that they aren't too dry. You can tell they're fresh. A lot of macaroons are too crumbly and dry and these were not the case. I really love the Nutella and the Vanilla ones. The chai latte was also really good but what has been suckering me into coming back weekly now is the caramel-vanilla latte. I get it iced (do not like the way it tastes hot- maybe a different brew?? Totally different to me) with almond milk and it is DELICIOUS. They coat the outside of the cup with caramel (so I can't get it too often) which is delicious. The staff there are friendly and welcoming and you can tell they have a very regular clientele there who love their brand. Overall, I really do like this place for their macaroons, pastries (ham-gouda croissant is amazing), and their iced beverages. Still don't love their hot beverages or the Postmates experience, but I will come back for their delicious lattes and macaroons in the future.

I have never had a bad item from this bakery! I got my graduation cake from here and it was a massive hit. Their pastries are fresh and delicious and I keep going back. Their staff is so friendly and helpful and I couldn't recommend it enough!

I was here for my birthday having recently moved to Oak Park. It was a beautiful summery day so I decided to walk around downtown OP when I stumbled upon this gem. I walked in and was greeted by two very friendly faces. It was my birthday so I decided to splurge and get an assortment of 6 macarons, a red velvet cupcake, and a café. The red velvet cupcake was moist and delicious with a perfectly creamy icing. The macarons were spectacular. My favorites were the lavender and lemon flavors but they were all great. If you're craving some french macarons around Oak Park, this is your place!

I came in on a Wednesday before Easter knowing that there might not be any availability to order a cake. The manager told me to call in on Friday afternoon to check if they could squeeze an order in for me (I know nothing was guaranteed.) So Friday rolls around and I call. I explain what the manager told me, and the person on the phone was incredibly rude and unprofessional. She said they were booked and I said, okay I was just checking as the manager said to give it a try with no guarantees. And then she tells me that no one simply cancels their cake order while laughing on the phone. I told her that I didn't call to ask if anyone cancelled their cake order -- I'm doing as the manager said to just call in and ask if there are any openings. The answer is no, and that's completely fine -- I wasn't expecting them to bend over backwards for me. However, there is absolutely no reason to make side comments to customers and laugh on the phone. The manager's customer service was great, but her employee's customer service was horrible and needs to be retrained on interacting with customers in a professional manner. I ended up getting a cake from Courageous Bakery. They were very friendly and actually professional on the phone (Imagine that!) They had cakes readily available -- incredibly business savvy!!!

The pastries are delicious however the customer service not very welcoming. Love the flourless cake!

Really like this place. I used to love in France and have searched high and low for an authentic croissant, and this place does very well. Not too heavy, not greasy. Just light and airy as God intended
