Toni Patisserie & Cafe: A Delightful Destination for Breakfast, Brunch, and Dessert in Hinsdale

Let me start with a confession: I’m not exactly a French food guy. Give me a burger or a plate of kabobs and I’m happy. That said, we took my sister-in-law out for her birthday and this was her pick, so off to Toni Café we went—with an open mind and an empty stomach. We ordered the egg sandwich, blueberry lemon French toast, La Dinde, quiche, and a few almond croissants. First off, major props to the staff for being great about our son’s allergies. Super patient, helpful, and reassuring, which immediately earns points in my book. The egg sandwich was decent, but it didn’t really stand out compared to everything else we ordered. The real star of the show was the blueberry lemon French toast. Crispy on the outside, fluffy like a pillow on the inside, and just sweet enough to make you forget all your other life responsibilities for a few minutes. The almond croissants were next-level. My wife and I split one and nearly turned it into a competitive sport over the last bite . We didn’t personally try the quiche, but my sister-in-law gave it a thumbs up, so I’ll trust the birthday girl. I also had a honey lavender latte, which was decent, though I was hoping for more of that honey-lavender magic to come through. All in all, even for someone who’s not big on French food, Toni Café won me over. Solid spot, great pastries, and definitely worth a visit.

Toni Patisserie did our wedding cake for us. It was both beautiful and delicious! We received so many compliments on the taste and the look of our cake from our guests. We leaned into a Christmas theme and Toni did an excellent job taking about three different inspiration photos and combining all into one stunning cake. Each cake tier was a different flavor and all three flavors were beyond tasty. Toni was easy to work with, responsive and it was a total stress free experience! They accommodated and worked with us on developing our flavors. Thank you so much for making our special day beautiful and tasty!!!

I tried one of their cakes at a birthday party and it was so good I started ordering cakes for all events from here! The white buttermilk cake tastes amazing, highly recommend. The designs always turn out great.

Toni’s is Hinsdale’s gem. They serve a delicious variety of foods from pastries to meals. I especially love their egg sandwich. Their potatoes are fabulous and oniony. There isn’t a bad item here and I definitely would come here for a great snack or meal!

I very much enjoyed your cake which was eaten tonight. Chocolate with mousse & jam filling. Delicious! Have not visited your bakery yet, bcuz my parents brought the cake for my child. Amazing! Kudos, keep up the confectionary rhythm going! Fantastic on 1st bite—-emphasized

What’s good? Cake with raspberry coulis. A “fall back” birthday dessert. Toni’s is small and mighty when it comes to fresh pastry, sandwiches, cookies and cakes. Usually busy but does not feel crowded. They’ve sort of captured a slightly euro feel in suburban Chicago.

I first tasted their cake at a birthday celebration and was genuinely impressed from the very first bite. Since then, this has become my go to place for every special occasion. The white buttermilk cake is incredibly flavorful and perfectly moist. Not only does it taste fantastic, but the presentation is always beautiful and thoughtfully done. Every order has exceeded my expectations.

I ordered a sandwich cold turkey and the bread was nice and crispy! Loved it, tastes like what my mom would make. The lemon bar was a bit eggy for my taste, but the tart, and cookies are definitely worth going back for. Be prepared to wait a bit if you go, seemed they were short staffed with only one person in the kitchen.
