I love this bakery for breakfast, brunch, or lunch! Can’t recommend the tiramisu crepe and spinach artichoke croissant enough.

Pekara Bakery And Bistro 5 Stars !!! Breakfast here should be your #1 option in the Champaign , Urbana Area.

Decent sandwiches and good desserts. One complaint I do have is when I ordered a gooey bar, the piece they gave me was the smallest pieces out of the batch and you could tell it was already falling apart, even though there were way better bars out of the batch. Customer service was friendly though.

My favorite restaurant for breakfast or lunch! I became a regular when located downtown, but this new location is convenient and the staff has improved 100%! Their chefs and menu are outstanding! Everything is delicious! Kitchen, which can be seen, is clean. Plenty of windows, variety of chairs, bathrooms are also clean. We often have Sunday brunch. Looking forward to fresh fruit tarts in season!

Some of the pastries and bread are really very good otherwise this would be 3 stars at best. Their gooey bars (I think that’s what they’re called) are incredible. The general vibe is very lively. The coffee is good.

Two of my favorite things from their menu: almond croissants and roasted red pepper and gouda soup. Today I tried the pumpkin crepe and it is a new favorite. It was filled with pumpkin puree and a sweet mascarpone type filling.

Had heard about the quiche and tiramisu crepes.. both disappointing. Quiche more like a pastry covered omlette, all the good stuff sunk to the bottom and barely warm, dried out edges. Crepe was precooked, rubbery

The bread they have is wonderful and fresh. Great place and great location. Friendly staff. Brioche rolls are great for burgers or sandwiches. Croinuts are a must try. The only gripe I have is they don’t stock enough bread. They always run out, often times early in the day.
