About Bao Bae Bakery
A Chinese bakery featuring traditional bakery options such as Pineapple Buns as well as more modern desserts like coconut pudding.
Bao Bae Bakery is a bakery in Chicago, Illinois. It is listed at 2105 S Jefferson St 2nd Floor, Chicago, IL 60616, which places it among the local businesses of Chicago that residents and visitors turn to when they need this kind of service close by.
American bakeries range from wholesale operations that supply restaurants to neighborhood shops that sell bread, pastries, cookies and cakes over the counter, and many of them also pour coffee. Bagel shops boil and bake on site and sell out of favorite flavors by late morning; donut shops open before dawn and are often family-run; patisseries and cake studios take custom orders for weddings and birthdays and usually need one to two weeks' notice. Ice cream parlors, gelato shops and frozen yogurt bars are seasonal in the northern states and year-round in the South and on the West Coast. Prices are posted per item, by the dozen or by the pound, and most shops now take cards and mobile payment.
The business lists hours on 7 days of the week. On most of those days it is open 9 am–8 pm. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. You can reach Bao Bae Bakery at (312) 200-8878; calling is usually the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or directions.
Customers rate it 4.6 out of 5 on Google across 36 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded bakeries in Chicago.

Traffic in Chicago peaks on weekday mornings and afternoons, so allow extra time then.

Fresh pasties, breads, treats, tarts, cakes, custards, etc sold here within the food court section upstairs at 88 Marketplace. So hard to miss! You can't pass it up without the fresh smell of baked goods stopping you in your tracks. I wish there were more fresh pastries to choose from. Fresh pastries are wrapped in plastic bags protected in plastic bins awaiting hungry customers, panadería style (self-service). Grab some tongs and a tray and get busy! I loved my creamy custard bun and fluffy golden bun. Big portions for fabulous prices- $2.19 each (on average) before tax. 😋

Paid close to $9 for a mooncake with red bean paste and egg Yolks. It didn’t taste as good as the ones from Costco and was much smaller. What a ripoff!!

Were so nice to me coming in. The woman behind the counter was smiley and so sweet describing some of the pastries. I got a snow mountain bun and matcha roll. Both were delicious. Will be back

Bao Bae is on the second floor of 88 Marketplace in the supermarket area. So many options for cakes, buns (sweet and savory), mochi donuts, and more. Most buns are $1.99 and egg tarts are $2.49. A little on the pricier side compared to locations in Chinatown but more diverse bakery options for my liking at this location. My favorites are the mochi donuts (brought in here from Te Amo), the taro bun (not too sweet and fluffy breading), and the custard buns. Everything if individually wrapped (except for the egg tarts). Note - there is a 3% credit card processing fee for purchases under $10. They also accept cash. Stop by here for a bao next time you’re at 88 Marketplace!

Bao Bae Bakery is located on the 2nd floor food court with Market 88 grocery store. All the bakery items I purchased were fresh, soft, and delicious! They take pride in their bake goods. I really like the variety available and how all the baked goods were individually wrapped, which meant eating the next day still tasted as good! The counter tops and bakery bins were clean and wiped down. I would absolutely buy from this bakery again. I would NOT recommend sitting in the narrow small limited space food court. The food court tables and countertops were sticky and filthy. It's cleaner to take your baked goods "to go."
