AWESOME "The Cafe" as we call it, has some of the best pastries i have ever tasted. My husband LOVES the lemon bars and i cant get enough of the macadamia nut bars. The mac-n-cheese is awesome. Everyone at the cafe is extremely nice and helpful. I love sitting outside with a cup of coffee and a pastry with my friend Kay!!! The kids love going wih us because of the cute cookies they always have. I would recommend trying Cafe Selmarie! PROS: GREAT PASTRIES CONS:
Fresh and tasty! I first came here last fall, and the first thing I noticed was the delicious-looking pastries at the counter. I ordered a Croque Monsieur, one of my favorite dishes, and I was glad I did--the bread was deliciously eggy and the ham and cheese were top quality. The green salad it came with was also very fresh. Everything else I tasted was also very good, especially the turkey and brie sandwich (another of my favorite combinations). I would probably be back more if I didn't live so far away, but now that the we... read more
Great bakery and sandwiches in Lincoln Square – Have a few minutes to eat or need a quick bakery treat ? I love to eat at selmarie. They have a large menu of soups, sandwiches and light meals. The staff is very friendly and don't mind altering means to meet you needs (I hate bree). My only negative is they are a bit expensive but the atmosphere and great food more than make up for it. Their bakery is also great but after eating there I never have any room for desert !
THE 'Go-To' Restaurant in Lincoln Square – This place remains the most consistent & reasonable restaurant in the neighborhood. Whether you prefer simple foods or more complex tastes, Cafe Salmare sets the standard for consistency. Their baked goods are excellent & are beloved by my family. You won't be disappointed!

Not so great as it started – I have lived in the Lincoln Square neighborhood all my life and remember when Cafe Selmarie was just a small store. However, over the last couple of years their service has declined: pastries are stale and their menu doesn't have much taste or variety. Also the number of screaming kids that are left unattended by their yuppie parents is appalling. It does ruin the dining atmosphere. The service there seems to cater to the yuppie clientele and ignore the average joe for service. It's sad to see Li... read more
Pastries This is a great place to get fresh baked pastries. They bake right on the premisis so everything you get is always fresh. They have a really great selection and you will be tempted to try all of their cute little pastries! I love eating at the cafe itself because the atmosphere. The decor here is simple, yet elegan. The white tablecloths and fresh flowers make this place a very elegant and pleasing place to enjoy some sweet snacks at.
Cafe Selmarie - good food, delicious treats Cafe Selmarie is a low-key place to have a light meal or a not-as-light dessert. The lemon bars and cakes are good, and the rum balls are baseball-sized. If you must eat real food too, a quiche and salad might give you the freedom to go for that fattening but delicious treat.
