Bennison Bakeries - Evanston

If you’re in Evanston looking for donuts… Bennison’s. Grew up getting donuts here and maybe it’s the childhood nostalgia? But from the line that circles this place every morning I doubt it. Donuts are always fresh and tasty. But my favorites are the danishes and Maple Bacon donuts!

I ordered a lemon meringue pie for a special occasion. And while I suspect there was flavorings in it. My partner enjoyed it very much. I just wasn't up for making one from scratch. I also have been enjoying the Irish Soda bread. And I love that it is made with whole wheat and not refined flour which I do not eat. I would love it even more if it were made with honey. I like bennison's for certain things.

We bought a cheese cake(in the pic) two croissant, a bag of and a dozen of chocolate cookies. The shopping assistant was really friendly and helped us a lot. She is talkative and we would definitely be returning costumers. For the foods, the one surprise me most is the cheesecake. I was afraid it would be so sweet but it didn’t. It tastes like yogurt and super soft. It melt the time reaches into the mouth. I broiled a cup of jasmine green tea without sugar or honey. they fits so well together, I would highly recommend taking the tea and cheesecake at the same time. The croissants

Delicious atomic cake. The croissants are very good also especially if u get them fresh in the morning.

The macarons here are better than in France. Or at least as good as. I am picky, this is true, I'm GF so I can't eat much more, but my family loves everything else on offer. A wide range of fresh products and small town charm.
