“Had such a wonderful time at Pierrot Gourmet! ✨ The afternoon tea and lunch were both delicious, and every dish was beautifully presented. Ben took great care of us and made the experience even more enjoyable with his warm, attentive service. Already looking forward to our next visit! ☕”

“A wonderfully soothing green interior topped with many cute pink desserts and lots of chocolate treats and pastries— all served by excellent, smiling wait team. What more could i ask for on a beautiful summer afternoon with friends!”

“Grabbed a quick Americano and Choco Croissant! Both were just perfect combo for 7:30 to start the day. Croissant was tender and flaky, a light sweetness to pair with my Americano. The ambiance was nice, cute European flair but I didn’t have time to stay. And I wished I tried their beautiful desserts also but it was just too early !!”

“Because of my hotel breakfast credit at the Peninsula, my wife and I ended up eating here twice and loved it both times. The food, atmosphere and service were all great. The portion sizes were also generous. There’s a good chance that you don’t need lunch after eating here. The pictures were from both visits. Do not pass on the cinnamon roll!”

“Amazing food and pastries. Wonderful staff and atmospher. I highly recommend.”

“Pierrot Gourmet is one of our favorite dessert spots in Chicago – We go back every few weeks. The Maritozzi is a must-order for us every time. We fell in love with it after having it in Italy, and this one totally lives up. If you're a whipped cream lover, don't miss it – absolutely delicious. Including picture from past Easter and Christmas specials. Beautiful presentation and full of holiday spirit. Also it’s a great place for brunch. Get your weekend brunch and satisfy your sweet tooth in one spot. Worth the trip! #ChicagoEats #DessertLover #Maritozzi #PierrotGourmet”

“Um restaurante muito charmoso com atendimento impecável”

“The best coffee and desserts in Chicago. Everything is fresh and delicious every time we come here. Their chicken truffle pot pie is to die for, very flavorful. Lobster roll is delicious. Great service too!”

“Always love coming back here! The quiche Lorraine is my usual with a fresh petit salad. Today’s indulgence was the strawberry and stone fruit swan. Think of it as the ugly duckling of Neapolitan ice cream turned into a beautiful swan.”
