This cafe is just so cute! We recently stopped by Angel Food Bakery (1636 W. Montrose) for some dessert to go, but we've also eaten here for lunch a couple of times. The restaurant, which has about five or six tables and is decorated all in pastels with a collection of easy bake ovens, is completely family friendly. It is open for breakfast and lunch six days a week (closed on Mondays) plus has a bakery case full of delicious treats. The Bakery's hours are Tues. through Fri. 7 AM until 5 PM, Sat. 8 AM until 5 PM and Sunday 9 AM until 2 PM. Lunch includes a selection of sandwiches and salads. I had the BLT focaccia the last time I was there and it was really good. The girls have had peanut butter and jelly and mac and cheese on past visits. They definitely enjoyed the food but also really loved the paper umbrellas that came stuck in the sandwiches.
The real draw for the girls, of course, are the bakery items. Angel Food Bakery specializes in retro treats like homemade Twinkies and whoopie pies. They also have a large assortment of cupcakes. It is really difficult to decide what you want because everything looks so good. When we were there last week we got cupcakes ($3 each or $2.50 each if you get six or more) and they were OK. I remember them being better so maybe we just didn't get the best batch. In the past we have sampled cookies, a Boston Cream cupcake, and an igloo, which is chocolate cake with cream filling and a marshmallow topping. All have been delicious.
We've been there during the week and also on the weekend and have never had any trouble finding parking along Montrose (metered spots).
Angel Food Bakery is a really fun place to grab lunch or a special treat.
