Dessert Restaurants near Brookline, MA

“The owner was one of the nicest people I have ever met. The customer service was so good and the food was so delicious. They also had a free Pac-Man machine that was very fun and made the wait time seem like there was no wait time. Highly Recommend!!“

“Kyo Matcha is a newly opened Matcha and other flavor dessert spot located near the HMart of Brookline.

I came here during the grand opening and other subsequent times, and the lines were out the door. There is outdoor seating, but it felt a little congested with how the line moved. Inside there is a few photo op areas but it's mainly indoor seating.

The service was fast and efficient, and the food came out quickly. The staff were understanding to any allergies and were accommodating with replacements on the menu.

The food was of decent quality, but could've been better. I tried the Matcha Crepe Layer Cake, the Brown Sugar Boba Milk Cap Cake, and Parfait with Matcha Ice Cream.

The Matcha Crepe Layer Cake was really good, very light and fluffy with a soft texture. The Brown Sugar Milk Cap cake was a little on the heavier side, with the sweetness of the boba being a bit overwhelming for me, but still enjoyable.

I really enjoyed the Matcha Parfait, however I saw in photos that there should be two layers of ice cream, one on the bottom and one on top. When I received mine, there was barely any on the bottom, instead it was packed with the toppings. This didn't really bother me but it did make it only toppings once I finished the layer of Matcha ice cream on top.

The prices here are a bit on the expensive side for desserts, but comparable to other matcha dessert places.“

“Cabot's has great food, including all-day breakfast, in addition to their delicious ice cream. The McGonagal Benedict was the best corned beef benny I've ever had.“

“very good service , there was this nice black girl , i did ask for her name but i don’t remember , i think it started with a k , she was very nice , greeted me as soon as i walked in , and even assisted me and my grandma make our order, love how she speaks haitian creole because everyone else spoke spanish overall she made my experience a 10/10 will be coming back every friday to get her good service .“

“They revised the menu and changed the way they baked the cookies. Pretty solid cookies. More than the cookies though, I appreciate the way the place is being managed. The store manager, Isaiah, was great. He listened to some the issues I experienced in the past at another store, and told me all about how they changed to make things better. Give them a try. I tried the s’more’s and the Oreo. I recommend the s’more’s.“

“cookie was really good! i went in with my friend because we saw no customers so we went ahead and tried the red velvet cookie!!! was really good and pricing was 5.89 for a big cookie, much better than crumble because their portions are smaller. would definitely come back here with my friend again!! 10/10 service btw they know the good cookie recommendations:)“

“I made a custom order for my anniversary with my wife. Lavender honey is flavorful and yet not too sweet. Tamy is friendly and makes the ordering process so easy!“

“Its definitely expensive but the cookies themselves are very high quality. They are very sweet, I would only eat at most one half each serving.

The brownie and pineapple cookies are probably the best here, pineapple isn't too sweet so that's a good choice for someone who preder less sweet.“

“There was a miscommunication about the bakery's hours, and I genuinely thought we were going to be without our Easter order. But Emily, the manager, and her father John, the owner, did something I truly didn't expect — they made it work anyway. They went out of their way to make sure we still got everything we needed, and on Easter Sunday of all days. That kind of customer care is rare. It would have been so easy for them to simply say "sorry, we're closed" — but instead they showed up for us in a way we won't forget. And the food? Absolutely delicious. Our pies were fresh and perfectly made, and the carrot birthday cake — a special request from the birthday boy himself — was absolutely stunning. Everything tasted like it was baked with real love and care, and it made our Easter celebration (and birthday!) that much more special. If you're looking for a bakery that not only delivers incredible baked goods but also treats their customers like family, look no further. Emily and John, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We are customers for life!“

“love visiting the Jamaica Plain store! Since the weather has been getting warmer, I've gone a few times this month and have to say the staff is amazing. They are very warm, friendly, patient, and have great insight on all the flavors and products. Because of them I found my favorite Fomu flavor. It was Rose Lavender but I was introduced to Lemon Meringue, tart lemon ice cream (coconut base), with graham cracker crust and yummy vegan marshmallow! It was so tasty I went back a second (and third) time to buy a point. Don't miss this flavor and the wonderful staff (surprisingly calm and chill even under pandemic pressure). Can't wait to see what next month's flavors are!“

“Crumbl is definitely worth trying atleast once! The cookies are soft, and super indulgent with fun rotating flavors every week. I love how creative their menu is and how fresh everything tastes! A little too sweet - but worth the hype❤“

“Huge variety of bubble teas, rolled ice creams and frozen drinks. I had a Mangonada with a tamarind stick and it DELICIOUS!!“

“Crumbl cookies in Brighton is the best location! The cookies and deserts always come out perfect. Their customer service is excellent, the store is super clean and very friendly staff. I definitely recommend this location to anyone. A+ service!“

“I am Asian American and have been eating mochi my entire life. Crystal's Bakery has forever changed how I think and feel about Mochi. Crystal's Mochi is like a heavenly cloud of fruit and cream that melts in your mouth. Gorgeous, silky soft texture unlike anything. It's not too sweet but addicting. Store-bought, rubbery chewy mochi has been downgraded to gummi status after eating Crystal's handmade mochi.
I also had mochi doughnuts, mung bean smoothie and plain sticky rice. Perfect Asian flavors that remind me of the homeland. Everything excellent!
It's a tiny shop and the place was jam packed with lines during our entire visit, for good reason.
I drove over an hour to get to Crystal's Bakery. It was no sacrifice. It is absolutely worth it. I will be making the trip again and many times more.“

“Great variety in fantastic tasting bubble teas and mochinuts!“

“My boyfriend got the milk tea mochi ice cream and I got the black sesame mochi! I loveee black sesame anything but tbh it tasted like mashed potatoes, thought I was crazy but my boyfriend agreed lmaooo.his was super good tho. Quality of the ice cream and mochi were good, but the price is a little steep for how small they are, definitely worth a try tho!“

“Delicious fresh authentic Liège waffles! Service was friendly and fast , highly recommended !!“

“I tried the brown sugar milk tea atCoco Leaf and really enjoyed it. It is sweet, but you can adjust the sweetnesslevel to your preference. The milk tea is smooth and creamy, boba are nottoo chewy. I also talked to the staff and found out that theyoffer rice plates too, so I will definitely try one next time.“

“These are excellent cookies! They're fresh and warm when you buy them. They have an extremely wide variety of specialty cookies with different compositions and flavors. The specialty cookies available change regularly so there's a lot of different types to try.“

“I have been hooked on Richie's Italian Ice. 10oz..with these great flavors cherry, watermelon, strawberry, lemon lime, raspberry, orange cream, root beer. Sour apple.. Etc. I found them at Raynham Market Basket 4 for $5. Only trouble the flavor are limited. So I run to other all market basket stores around to find different flavors.. the Product is Super hit this season and I bet it will go fast this summer.. Thanks Richie..Italian Ices..a happy 68 year old customer..“

“Excellent service! I highly recommend Le Macaron Boston. Their pastries are not only delicious but are served in a very clean and welcoming environment. A must go to!“

“Crumbl is amazing their cookies are so good especially their rotation every week with new cookies and their cookies that stay is amazing one of the popular ones pink sugar with almond extract! Their customer service is top notch especially with pickup orders“

“Jelissa is AMAZING!! I cannot recommend enough. She came to teach a cake decorating class for a bridal shower and everyone had so much fun. She was so responsive, kind and made sure everyone was having a great time. 100% will be using again“

“Pretty good - albeit limited range of desserts and some drinks. Worth one try for sure if you like coconut
We have a few different desserts and all were a decent std - although the mango itself (pictured) did not taste that great - the coconut base was good.“

“This is my second time here and boyyyyy did they not disappoint!!!!! I always get the chocolate chip cookies 🍪. They are very warm, soft and lovely😏.

Yeah....I most definitely will be coming back again for a 3rd 😁time. Chip City is in a great location, very spacious and clean.

Kev & Izaiah where very friendly, professional, and extremely helpful 👏.
Answered all questions asked.

“There was something for everyone in my family of picky eaters- vanilla icecream served with bits of fruit on the side, shaved ice with generous chunks of mango, and soft tofu pudding. Everyone was happy. It’s right outside the parking garage- so super convenient after walking around Chinatown.“

“This is a charming ice cream store in the picturesque and quaint neighbourhood of North End. The two ice creams I’ve tasted were good but not the best I’ve had in Boston. For instance, I had the coffee ores one today and I wished it had more concentrated coffee flavour. Their hot fudge is yummy though. The people who work there were nice and professional.“

“I first visited this spot during their Milk & Mocha collaboration. I really enjoy the warm, cozy atmosphere here, and they did a wonderful job decorating the entire space to match the collaboration's theme.

I ordered the black sesame paste soup with rice balls and a waffle topped with bananas and matcha ice cream. The black sesame soup had a great nutty flavor and tasted not too sweet, which I appreciated. The waffle was perfectly crispy on the outside and soft inside. Not pictured in the photos, I also ordered the mango juice with sago and herbal jelly. The mango provided a lovely natural sweetness, and the sago was cooked to the perfect texture. This has easily become my favorite spot for late-night desserts since the treats are satisfying without feeling too heavy!“

“Food is delicious and the place is immaculate. The employees are very courteous and efficient“

“A hidden gem for creative latte & matcha drinks. I initially stumbled upon it to get a few macarons, and I ended up coming back here frequently for lattes. The fancier lattes (eg dubai chocolate latte, lavender cream) usually takes a while to come out (because they are made fresh & usually have multiple layers / ingredients) and it could feel intimidating to wait, but every time the latte comes out very nicely both in terms of presentation and taste. Also very customizable (you can just tell the staff to adjust syrup amounts or replace one flavor with something else, etc).“

“I’m a huge bubble tea drinker and I love to try all different kinds of places. Let me tell you, Sweet Sip did not disappoint. While there I tried three drinks: the Assam black tea with honey boba, the rose milk tea (no topping), and the Vietnamese iced coffee. All three were delicious. The Assam was a great milk tea for anyone who likes it simple and nostalgic. Nice and sweet, but not too sweet. The rose milk tea was fragrant and delicious as well. In terms of the boba, they use honey boba, which is a nice choice; this gives them a good taste, which adds nicely to the teas. The Vietnamese iced coffee was also a nice surprise. If you’ve ever had the real deal form a Vietnamese restaurant, then you would know that the coffee flavor can be strong and extra bitter. For someone who loves coffee, but is a wimp with the bitterness, this iced coffee was just the right balance. It gets even better as your ice melts. Lastly. I tried some of their Hong Kong cakes, specifically the pandan flavored cake, and the mochi filling. It was heavenly… Crisp, sweet, and flavorful. I look forward to trying the other flavors. I don’t go to Boston too often, but I would definitely come back to try more drinks at Sweet Sip the next time I’m visiting.“

“Wow! I’m not usually a big fan of cannoli (they’re usually stale and bland tasting), but the pistachio cannoli I got here was INCREDIBLE! Made fresh, creamy and just the right amount of sweet, crunchy pastry around it, perfectly encrusted with pistachio. I loved it!“

“Has a great seafood platter fried clams Were especially tender“

“Popular VN bubble tea place at Adams St and Park in Dorchester (Boston). With a good variety of VN speciaty sweet drinks and smoothies, pancakes and other side dishes. Clean, bright with some tables for dining in. Prices start at $6 USD for a small drink to $9, $10+ for large size. They have reward points for all their shops in the franchise.“

“I really enjoyed my dessert here. I think it makes more sense to go with a group and share, because the items are large and $$.. Everything I saw was a fair price for the size. I had a taro ice bowl. I didn't love the shave ice first try, but i froze it and ate it later and it held up. I thought it could have been a bit sweeter, but im also american and I know I probably like things sweeter than most. Service wasn't super fast, but not crazy slow.“

“Insomnia Cookies is my go-to spot whenever I’m craving something sweet late at night. The cookies are usually warm, soft in the middle, and super satisfying — especially the classics like Chocolate Chunk and Snickerdoodle. When they’re fresh out of the oven, they really hit the spot.

That said, the experience can be a little inconsistent. During busy hours, wait times get long, and delivery can sometimes show up colder than expected. Prices are on the higher side as well, especially if you’re ordering multiple items or adding ice cream.

Overall, though, it’s a fun late-night treat with a great variety of flavors, and the convenience is hard to beat. When they’re warm and fresh, they’re absolutely worth it.“

“best ice cream! the staff rule. my favorite late night joint“
