While eating, the owner came from the back with the color changing drink…” — Julisa Tinoco, 5/5 stars
“This was my first time at Ancestral Oven coffee shop and bakery. My friend and I had delicious mochas made to order. The staff were very welcoming. We'll be back for sure.” — Cindy J., 5/5 stars
“This place was recommended to me and the bread is amazing!! I've gone back a few times for their cheddar & jalapeño loaf and it is pure perfection!! The crust on the bread can't be beaten. They have other menu items and sell coffees too but have only tried their bread so far. Plenty of parking and accessible. Give them a try, it's great!” — Isobeil Bellis, 5/5 stars
“I rarely leave reviews, but this one is a must. Chef George's bakery/cafe is a wonderful hidden gem in Oak Lawn. I'm so glad I discovered it — his fresh-baked sourdough loaves are amazing, especially the jalapeño cheddar! My husband and I now frequent the cafe for its delicious sandwiches, specialty beverages, and irresistible desserts of the day, and not to forget, a fresh loaf to take home. My…” — Jennifer Tucker, 5/5 stars
