House of Tales Bakery & Cafe

Super GemSchaumburg (suburb) · Bakery/Cafe Community-sourced, unverified
📍 522 W Golf Rd, Schaumburg, IL 60195

The Canbolat family opened the original A Thousand Tales restaurant in Mount Prospect in 2022, built around Eastern Mediterranean flavors, with owner Yavuz Canbolat (family member Burak Canbolat has also been named as an owner in local coverage) spending roughly two years planning this Schaumburg follow-up as a bakery-and-cafe-only concept rather than a second full restaurant.

$
Turkish coffee, poured properly, alongside pastries that make the case for stopping in even if you weren't planning to.

The dessert case runs genuinely specific Turkish sweets — sutlac (rice pudding), kazandibi (a caramelized milk pudding sometimes called Turkish flan), and pistachio baklava — alongside the Turkish coffee and pastries already known here.

Open essentially all day, 6:30AM to 11PM, which covers breakfast pastry runs through late-night dessert cravings in one schedule.
