Hewn is, hands-down, the best bakery anywhere, and they’ve just added a new location in Winnetka so it’s even easier to visit now that they have 3 locations. Such quality ingredients and baking talent!!! The goodies run the gamut from delicious, satisfying sandwiches to amazing loaves of bread to the most scrumptious pastries you can imagine: sticky buns, croissants, cinnamon buns, individual monkey bread—you could make your buy blindfolded and come away with goodies anyone would attest is the best they’ve ever tasted.
The best bakery in town! So thrilled they came to Winnetka… lucky us!
We love Hewn and are so happy they opened another outpost on the North Shore. Breads and pastries are excellent. The cinnamon brioche are a favorite in our house. They serve Tala coffee too. Service has always been friendly.
I love their naturally fermented Country Blonde bread. They are also known for their sandwiches and a variety of awesome baked goods. I have been to all three of their locations and the service is always excellent.
I’ve been so impressed with Hewn bakery. Everything has been incredible. The heirloom wheats are particularly delightful and I love trying out their various pastries. All are exceptional and I would recommend this bakery to anyone who appreciates quality, thoughtful and timeless ingredients.
Thrilled to have a bakery in town. Fresh. Amazing. AND THEY DO NOT USE SUGAR IN THEIR BREADS. Most don’t realize how much even Dave’s sliced bread has added. Pastries are amazing too - with allll the sugar :)
The baguettes are phenomenal. Crunchy on the outside, airy and light on the inside. As it should be! Beautiful ham and cheese croissant. They don’t skimp on the ingredients. Definitely a stop on my way to work. So happy they are in the neighborhood.
Wow. I can’t say I expected how cool this new Hewn location would be. We picked up a challah on Friday.. this is going to give some other area bakeries a run for their money. The kouign amann and morning bun were delicious, and somehow the chocolate croissant has survived 24 hours but will be consumed soon. Good coffee, rotating bread menu, a few other random surprises. I’m excited to have this nearby.
No Smoke and Mirrors, Just Flavor ✨ This women-owned gem cuts through the noise with locally sourced and organic ingredients, naturally fermented breads and pastries that speak for themselves. They let the quality of their ingredients shine, prioritizing real flavor over sugary gimmicks. The result? An unforgettable taste experience. Take their August peach pie 🍑. It was a masterclass in simplicity: perfectly ripe peaches, balanced sweetness and acidity, a crisp, comforting crust. While the picture hints at its beauty, it can't capture the essence of flavor that made it unforgettable. Hewn is more than a bakery; it's a celebration of honest, delicious food. If you're looking for the real deal, you've found it!
HEWN Bakery has done it again! As a longtime devotee of their Evanston location, especially for their annual St. Patrick's Day Irish soda bread, I was thrilled to visit their new Winnetka store. And let me tell you, it did not disappoint. Every year, HEWN's Irish soda bread is a highlight, a pure delight that perfectly captures the warmth and comfort of traditional baking. This year, at the Winnetka shop, I not only indulged in my beloved soda bread but also discovered their incredible flavorful brown bread – a testament to HEWN’s consistent quality and mastery of rustic loaves. It was, as always, utterly satisfying. To truly embrace the festive spirit, I couldn't resist their chocolate shortbread shamrock cookies, filled with a decadent Valrhona mint ganache. These were a revelation! The rich chocolate shortbread paired perfectly with the refreshing mint, creating a delightful treat that was both beautiful and delicious. (See attached photos for a peek!) Beyond the baked goods, the Winnetka store carries a curated selection of pantry items, and I couldn't leave without their exceptional olive oil. The quality is evident, and it's a perfect complement to their breads. (Again, see photos!) I even picked up a beautiful cutting board, a testament to the thoughtful curation of items found at Hewn. As a French native, I hold bakeries to an exceptionally high standard. HEWN consistently exceeds those expectations. For me, it's not just a bakery; it's the best bakery and patisserie in the Midwest. The dedication to quality ingredients, the artistry in their baking, and the warm, welcoming atmosphere make HEWN a truly special place. Whether you're a longtime fan or a first-time visitor, you're sure to find something to love. Don't miss the chance to experience the magic of HEWN in Winnetka!
