Welcome to La Fournette. We bring to you an authentically French bakery and café through a uniquely different experience. We bring generations of expertise and craftmanship and blend it with new ideas, culture and spirit.
As was true of their founding bakery in Schnersheim, France, where the village markets dictated the daily offerings, La Fournette’s products are respectful of the seasons and local produce. Crusty, aromatic, and flavorful; the way bread is supposed to be, most of our breads are made with natural sourdough starters, a slow process that results in superior flavor and texture.
All of the products are made in our own bakery which was designed to be energy efficient and operate with minimal waste. The Zimmermanns spent years researching and planning before opening La Fournette to ensure that their customers in Chicago would enjoy the same quality and small-town welcome that they did in Schnersheim.
