An Illinois bakery just got called the very best in the entire state.

No small feat either for this bakery as it has some definite stiff competition considering where it’s located.

According to Yelp’s Best Bakery to Treat Yourself in Every State they think Mindy’s Bakery is the spot.

Maddy S. says the “atmosphere is great” and the food is “mouthwatering.”

Mindy’s does have its detractors though. Mike F. asks "Is this place a joke?” While claiming “the portions are laughable” it should be called “Minis” instead of Mindy’s.
