The Best Cinnamon Rolls In Chicago | Legendary Eats

In the late 1980s, cinnamon roll shops began opening up across the country. Bakery giants like Cinnabon and T.J. Cinnamons gained national attention, and in Chicago alone, there were already a dozen specialty cinnamon roll shops. With the rise of America's appetite for cinnamon rolls, how did a small mom-and-pop called Ann Sather withstand the intense competition and test of time? We visited the original restaurant in Chicago’s Lakeview neighborhood to get a closer look at how the iconic cinnamon rolls are made and learn why they are so loved by the local community.

Editor's Note: Insider visited Ann Sather's in March 2020, before Chicago restaurants closed to dine-in service. The restaurant has reopened for limited dine-in and outdoor service, and you can still order cinnamon rolls and more for pickup and delivery. For more information, visit: www.annsather.com
