Everyone is so kind and welcoming, and the bagels are always fresh and delicious! My go-to order is a Turkey club on an egg bagel!“

“Mamadou's bakery is the best I've been to, hands down. As soon as you walk in, you're hit with the aroma of freshly baked bread. It's so delicious that you'll quickly forget that over half of the bread is already sold out.When the fresh bread comes out of the oven, it smells and tastes heavenly. Mamadou is an outstanding baker and a humble man. He's always happy to chat with his customers and share his passion for baking.“

I have used Nothing Bundt cakes for family events, holidays, and a corporate Employee Appreciation Day order (300 cakes). Their attention to detail is top notch and they make each process seamless. Highly recommend.“

“This is a hidden gem! We came in here after a bike ride for coffee and an egg sandwich. The egg sandwich was on a homemade biscuit and one of the best egg sandwiches I've ever had. The baked goods were unbelievable. The owner, Ramona, is so sweet. We will definitely be back! 10/10 recommend you check this place out!“

“I can’t recommend this bakery highly enough! They make absolutely beautiful and delicious cakes for special occasions. I ordered a dino themed cake and a mermaid cake for my daughter’s past two birthdays and everyone was so impressed! So much detail was put into the decorations.“

“First time here and it did not disappoint at all! I got the Vietnamese iced mocha coffee with whipped cream and mocha drizzle. I also got the egg and cheese croissant with chicken sausage. The presentation was fantastic but taste was even better. Regardless of me being the only customer on site at the time, the service was excellent and extremely fast. I was in and out in less than 2 minutes with the food and drink. I would definitely go back and try all the other flavors for coffee and pastry!“

“I'm obsessed with their quiche and if you call 48 hours ahead of time (I've even gotten away with less), you can pre-order a whole one. This is my new superpower. Everyone loves the person who shows up with a gigantic delicious quiche and it couldn't be easier. Everything else is divine and this place takes all my money, but man. That quiche. *chef's kiss*“

“Has so many greek imported food and fresh cooked greek food too. They have everything you want here. They have great spanakopita and tyropita that was made fresh too. I take my mom here sometimes to pick up some of her favorite greek chocolate that remind her of “

I was greeted from the moment I stepped in by a friendly counter girl who immediately took my order.Service was fast, and bagels fresh. What more can you ask for?Can't wait to be back and support a small business who are clearly making bagels their passion.KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!“

“We came to grab coffee on a whim before heading to an open house nearby. There isn’t much seating, just a small table in the front, so it’s more a grab and go spot. The pastries completely won me over though! So many great and creative options. I will come back to try more!“

“Hands down the best doughnuts around (and I have tried them all!). These are the big, old-fashioned ones with a fresh, homemade taste. They are never dry or crumbly, like so many others. Every time I am in the area, I make time to go here, and it is worth the trip!“

“Duuuude, this place is awesome!!!!!Let's start with the place.• Super clean• Unique style• Music was on point• Enough space to seat and enjoy your mealThe service was greatThe food was delicious. (Portions are on the small side) We had jambalaya Congee, Chicken and Sausage Gumbo and a fried shrimp Po boy. Everything was great.Prices are reasonable.So glad I found something totally different for lunch.Kid-friendliness: Is a freaking cool place visually the music and decoraton has sort of like a GTA Vice City vibe.“

“This historic pastry, bakery and pizzeria by the slice, with over a century of tradition, is renowned for its frozen pizzas and unique sweet tomato sauce. However, for an Italian palate, there are some questionable choices: the addition of sugar in tomato sauce and the idea of ​​freezing pizza are considered almost sacrilegious, not to mention pineapple on pizza, mentioned here to emphasize the culinary heterodoxy. These choices negatively affect my rating. Despite this, customers seem to appreciate these peculiarities, even if perhaps they are the same ones who don't disdain ketchup on pasta. I respect the preferences of others and I congratulate the family who have been able to preserve their business for more than a century.“

“Wish I knew this place existed sooner! Everything we had was very good, including the lattes. I had a chocoweggli and the spinach and cheese croissant (next time I would get it warmed) but both were delicious. My husband had a pretzel stick and a raspberry berliner and enjoyed both, the raspberry jam filling was really fresh tasting. Not much room to sit inside - there are only 3 small two-person tables.“

“I was charged $19.75 for four macarons and previously wrote a negative review. Recognizing there had been a mistake, the owner reached out with an apology, explained the proper pricing, promised to train the sales clerk accordingly, and refunded my purchase due to the mistake. Thank you!“

“Everything I've purchased here has been amazing! The pastries and deli items have always been fresh. The workers are helpful and friendly. Their prices are great compared to other bakeries I visit. I definitely recommend checking out LaCascia's!“

“We had such fun desserts for my daughter’s bridal shower! Our guests enjoyed 5 different kinds of cupcakes, 3 different cake pop flavors, and GORGEOUS bride, groom, and bridal gown cookies. Everything was such a hit and guests raved about the dessert! Everything was delicious and presented beautifully! Candice was a pleasure to work with and a big help in my planning! I will be back!“

“I ordered m&m cookies for my son's birthday. I thought they were expensive when I ordered (but competitive with other bakeries). However, after eating one of the enormous, not too sweet, not too salty cookies; I realized that these cookies were miles beyond their competitors. They were thick, full of mini m&ms, slightly crunchy at the edges, perfectly cooked: yum. It's more of an experience than a cookie. In conclusion, the items at Sweet Spot are worth every penny.“

“Delicious!!! I ordered a cake the same flavors as my wedding cake to celebrate my anniversary since our original bakery was really far and Bliss really knocked it out of the park. I love a good frosting and theirs is so good. The design exactly matched what I had requested as well. The online request form is easy to fill out and Kristen and Delia followed up immediately. I would order from them again in a heartbeat!“

“I recently held my sons birthday party here and had a great experience.I thought they offered a very reasonable package which included 2 lovely hosts, arts & crafts supplies for baker hats, cookies & ice cream flavors a la carte and the chance to bake & decorate 3 take home cookies each. They cater very well to allergies.The room set up was very nice and we really didn’t need to bring anything else with us.Well done Jay & team!“

“love this place, been coming here since 2011. the pink cake is so sweet and delicious, so is the cheesecake bread especially when warm, and the fried sugary donut sticks with the filling in the middle. sorry I don't know the correct names for it all. recently tried their tiramisu cups and tamales- holy cow so delicious :) my boyfriend is in love with their tamales.everyone is friendly here too and I will always be a customer, I can tell they work hard!“

“Cozy, friendly breakfast and lunch cafe. The focus is bakery and bread, but I dont skip the Java here. Their late is on par, if not better, than Nero or Starbucks.There are few dairy-free options, but the entire place is gluten-free—a nice variety of breakfast items, sandwiches, and desserts. Smoothies are also on the menu which along with a healthy bowl is for another day. I am looking forward to supporting this small local biz again.Dietary restrictions: All gluten-free, but only a few dairy-free options.“

“I did a Too Good To Go order at this bakery to try it out. This place gives you the value you paid for so I can see why the ratings are so high on tne app. Not just that, I enjoyed the pastries. Those peanut butter cookies were soft and chewy! Would I come back here without a tgtg order? Yes.“

“Our enezuelan brother-in-law came to town to visit and suggested this restaurant. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! I've never had the experience of Venezuelan cuisine, and what a fabulous introduction we had here! Can not begin to explain how delicious everything was, we tried a little of everything... tequeños, the Bochinche plate of appetizers, chamos tostadas, the aragua arepas. It was amazing how flavorful our meal was!!! YUM and more Yum! Their motto is you are not a customer, you are a family member.... and we honestly felt like we were part of their family! Thank you!“

“I first tried there cake at a wedding over 2 years ago. Everyone went for seconds, including me. I’m not a cake lover but I love their icing.I did buy the roses myself, and they were kind enough to place them.If you order a cake like this, make sure it has good structure and take another person to pick it up. Our did collapse, but we were still able to serve it and the guests loved it.This is a 40min drive from my place, but so worth it. Fredy and Dominga are so sweet and lovely, it was a pleasure meeting them!“

“Small local family business I had to try after moving to the neighborhood! The baked beans are awesome, and I bought all they had left on Saturday before closing. I also wanted brown bread but had to get a frozen loaf, as this goes fast from what everyone said. Bought a half pumpkin pie too. Defrosting and warming the brown bread was no big deal, and I will return for the other pies and pastries and of course, for the brown bread and more beans. Parking is easy in their front lot just off the main Washington Street.“

“this place is SO GREAT!! super cute inside. very much high end, boutique quality at very reasonable prices. another shop cancelled on me, but B Sweets was able to pull off this beauty last minute (for far less money too). I'm so impressed with the artistry. the cakes and cupcakes are as delicious as they are pretty! super moist and flavorful. 10/10 highly recommended!!“

“I love this bakery!! I travel from Central Mass to this yummy bakery. Everything is fresh, i have been going here for at least 6yrs+ . I have also shipped some breads to family in other states and it's as yummy as it was when i picked up mine fresh! We highly recommend this yummy bakery!“

“We were passing through town and stopped in to see what a family run since 1915 pastry shop had to offer. Excellence! That is what they had to offer. Everything fresh, delicious and the gentleman helping us was friendly, funny, told us some great stories about the place and made the whole experience more than just popping in for some cookies or pastries.“

“Always fresh and served with a smile. This family-owned authentic Italian bakery offers a variety of delicious old time favorites along with new creative items. Whether it’s a yummy pastry or food item, you will never be disappointed and likely to walk out with more than one box. This bakery brings me back to my childhood. I highly recommend Roma’s Bakery & Deli!!“

“Cookies are delicious. I ordered Brookie, Reese’s, and plain chocolate chip cookie yesterday.In my opinion they are slightly better than Crumbl. I am comparing Crumbl’s semi-sweet to the Cookie Monstah’s choc chip cookie. I think this one is a better cookie overall. Both are great btw.Unlike Crumbl, they do not bake cookies fresh to order. They just give you what’s on display. That was the only negative.Good and fast service! I really liked the Brookie, Reese’s and the chocolate-chip one.Vegetarian options: I don’t think they have any vegan/non dairy optionDietary restrictions: I don’t think they have any vegan/non dairy optionParking: Plenty of spots.Kid-friendliness: Yes; great place for kidsWheelchair accessibility: Yes; wheelchair accessible“

“My vanilla latte was basically correct - lingering finish, not bitter - but the beans either weren't the freshest or were just not ground finely enough, because I didn't get the awesome flavor that coffee can deliver. Inside is a little dated for my taste. The booth seating has tape and tears in places like an aging diner or cafeteria would.“

“Fun little hole in the wall. I am new to this cuisine and asked for suggestions. I ended up getting Ox Tail and enjoyed it. My buddy got stewed chicken and finished all of it. The highlight was the meat. Sides were good but nothing special. I want to try the beef patties next:)“

“I arrived at 11am on Sunday but they weren't open even though it said they opened at 10am. They ended up opening at 12noon. My roommate told me about this place and that it has a wicked good pineapple cream dessert that's to die for I guess so I had to try it! And OMG was it awesome! ???? YUMMY! ???? I ordered some chicken fingers w/fries, 2 coconut freeze pops, pineapple cream cake dessert w/a grape soda! The chicken fingers were ok ???? but they didn't have any sweet & sour or BBQ sauce to dip em in! ????‍♀️ The lady that took our order seemed nice... ( She didn't seem to speak much English so luckily my roommate was with me... She speaks Spanish! ????As for the parking situation well, it's free but u gotta park on the street! ????‍♀️“

“I didn’t think Crumbl Cookie was worth the hype…I thought it was just another fad that was popular for a minute and that would not be worth the money. Boy, was I wrong! The cookies are delicious, and the weekly menu is always creative and ever-changing! I’m hooked!“

“A huge thanks to Cookie Monstah for the ability to rent out one of their trucks for our daughter’s and son-in-law’s Welcome Party the night before their wedding, Memorial Day weekend. They allowed for them to make their own combinations of ice cream cups/cookies and to name them - the names were based on the neighborhoods where they had lived in the North End. The service was great and the ice cream and cookies were top-notch! Thanks to Janelle for all her help in making this such a special occasion!“
