You mean Michigan and the river, right? If so, there aren't that many "bakeries" in that area. The real estate's too expensive. If you're looking for coffee and pastries to go, you're better off with Starbucks or your hotel. If you're looking for a to-go breakfast sandwich, there's a Potbelly's at State and Lake, and their coffee isn't terrible.
Old Timer's at State and Lake is pretty good for a sit-down breakfast.
But if you're looking for independent coffee house with something ok to eat, try Intelligensia. There's one at 55 E. Randolf (between State and Wabash).

It is the same. It's also Liquor License #1 in the city, and the bar only opened to women in the 80's.
Any TFP'er that ever wants to grab a beer there has a standing invitation with me. If I'm in town, I'll be there.
