In one form or another, the café now called Le Cakery has served lunch in downtown Elm Grove for years. Previously called the Chocolate Swan and known for incredible éclairs, Le Cakery's new owner hopes to continue the small café tradition for years to come.
The initial improvements in service and Eastern European touches of new owner Hakan Hare bring a refreshing vibe to this established Elm Grove eatery.
Le Cakery's small, quaint lunch café serves a handful of sandwiches and salads including a soup of the day and daily specials. Lunches are sizable and fresh but what patrons really come for is the desserts.
Le Cakery's in-house bakery perfects everything from full wedding and birthday cakes to petite lemon bars and decadent brownies.
Éclairs made from the original world famous Chocolate Swan recipe continue to pull customers from around the city. Tasty éclairs, fresh eats plus new, improved service give west siders more than enough reason to return.

Le Cakery is a FABULOUS place and Hakan and his staff are amazing! This is not just a place to get tremendous cakes, but other great bakery and lunch items. The Lemon Basil Roast Beef Sandwich is tremendous and unlike anything I've ever had before. If you haven't been there before, I highly recommend it!

This place is a great lunch spot - I tried one of their sandwiches the other day and it was delicious!
