New Paradise Bakery

Super GemNorwood Park · Sicilian Bakery Community-sourced, unverified
📍 5742 N Milwaukee Ave, Chicago, IL 60646

This location is the American outpost of a Sicilian bakery that's run in Palermo since 1978 — owner Vito Rubino, whose parents are from Palermo, partnered directly with the original New Paradise to open here in March 2022, in the former Gladstone Park Bakery space.

Custom cakes and cannoli gelato share the case here, and both are reasons this Norwood Park bakery built a loyal following.

Cannoli shells, sheep's-milk ricotta cream, and pistachio products are actually imported from Sicily rather than made to taste similar, and word reportedly traveled fast enough that people in Palermo were calling relatives in Chicago about the opening. Also does full-service lunch alongside the bakery case.

Open daily -- Sunday and Monday 8AM-4PM, Tuesday through Saturday 8AM-6PM.
