Picked up some donuts, coffee cake, and paczkis today for Mardi Gras and everything was PHENOMENAL! The chocolate donuts were still warm and the chocolate was delicious, which is hard to find these days.
We got the following paczkis: strawberry, strawberry and whipped cream (my personal fave), apple (a huge hit), Bavarian cream (and not too sweet which was great), and blueberry. There were other filling options available as well.
They had a great set up by having the pre-order boxes organized alphabetically and set up on tables in the lobby of the Lyric Theater.
Love this place! Thanks for making popular with my coworkers.

Iverson’s Bakery in Blue Island is fantastic. They have an awesome selection of baked goods, and the staff is unbelievably friendly and welcoming. Everything is fresh, and the service always makes you want to come back. I highly recommend stopping in, you won’t be disappointed!

My husband discovered this place after the remodel, and we’ve been coming back ever since. Each visit feels a little different in the best way.
In the warmer months, we stop by for ice cream and enjoy the enclosed outdoor seating, which is beautifully decorated with lights and thoughtful details. In the winter, it’s our go-to spot for pastries and coffee ☕️.
We’ve even ordered a birthday cake from here, so I’ll have more to update soon.

The remodel is beautiful. Pastries are wonderful. However, I grew up going to this bakery my whole life and the smiley face cookie was a highlight of my entire family. I was told they were not going to change the recipe and it has changed so many times and it’s not good at all. It used to be delicious and now it’s bland and so much frosting whereas it used to be somewhat of a hardshell frosting over the entire cookie. Disappointing. I also did not care for the soft serve ice cream. I’ve attached a picture of the old cookies here, RIP. Also, the staff was not friendly.

Things have changed and not in a good way for the food. The remodel is cute. The food is dry and I have gone twice now with two different people and same experience. We didn’t even finish the treats. We have tried the cake donuts, glazed donuts, coffee cake slices, and pumpkin donut. They used to be THE BEST. I miss the old recipes and women who worked there. They also used to have so many cakes and coffee cakes in fridges on display and breads to purchase, I didn’t see any of these things. Sad. I won’t go back for a third trip and it used to be a weekly stop.

Iversen’s has been a Blue Island staple for decades. It now has amazing coffee and a wonderful seating area. The atmosphere is great, the employees are caring and the bakery goods are fantastic.

I’ve come here a few times and the donuts were soft and fresh, but this time they were stale. They tasted like they were old. They were horrible. I called the bakery and they told me to bring the donuts back with the receipt but my husband had misplaced the receipt, so we were left with $20 worth of old donuts.

Tried ordering a cake for my mom’s birthday and pick up on Tuesday. Employee told me they needed 72 hr notice, however 48 hr notice is standard. She tried to contact the manager Erin who told her to let me know they can’t accommodate me. I’ve been coming here for years. Service used to be really good. Guess I’ll start looking for another bakery.
