Mike's Pastry

This is my Boston staple, when I’m in town I have to get a cannoli. It’s the perfect indulgence after a night in little Italy. I’ve tried both modern pastry and Mikes and I prefer Mikes ! They are busy!! Don’t get antsy waiting in line it may take a while but it’s worth it, I’ve also ordered from door dash and they also tasted fresh and were fine. My favorite is the chocolate chip or pistachio but I recently tried the chocolate mousse and it was a dream!!! So rich and delicious, you also can’t go wrong with a classic. The shell is crispy, light and airy, and the cream (never skimped) is beautifully delicate and creamy packed with that classic flavor. I will never not stop at Mikes.

This shop is so popular. Even with a line, the line moves fast. It is impressive how quickly the people work. There is so much dessert in this pastry shop. The most popular are their cannoli. I got the regular spice, expresso, and limoncello. Everything there is about $6 and cash only. The cannoli here is quite amazing, and I don't like Cannoli much. The filling is not crazy sweet, and the pastry part is flaky and slight crunch. For the pricer, the portion is massive, even their cake. The spice one tastes like pumpkin pie. I love it.

This is definitely a must stop if you're in the Boston area, even if you're not a cannoli fan they have a variety of other deserts and treats. All the employees were very helpful and friendly. We tried 4 flavors of cannolis, a chocolate whoopie pie, a peanut butter chocolate brownie, and a traditional black/white cookie. Everything was delicious. Most importantly they only take cash, so make sure and come prepared.
