Bakery & Cafe Nonies - North Utica (IL)

4 /5 Noah Hoech: Stellar service and really cozy, mom-and-pop space. The flavored drinks are special, but they’re super duper sweet. Not my cup of tea, but maybe perfect for someone else ☕️. Also, they no longer (to my knowledge) bake their own bread—croissants, tater tots, and other richer fare is the standard.

5 /5 Sia Moody: My husband and I really enjoyed Nonie’s Bakery and Café! At first, I was a little hesitant when I saw the long line (we waited about 25 minutes), but it was absolutely worth it—and I’d do it again in a heartbeat. I ordered the cinnamon roll and the bread pudding cinnamon roll, and both were out of this world—fresh, moist, and full of flavor. The bakery itself is on the smaller side, but the outdoor seating area is spacious and welcoming. Overall, a fantastic experience. I can’t wait to return. Highly recommend!

5 /5 Jen Woodrum: What a cute bakery! We stopped here after a starved rock trip, and it was just a few minutes away from the state park. The food was delivered!! I got the veggie croissant and was happy with how fresh it was. Lots of cute local items for sale, too!
