“We had a small get together at Bits and bites cafe.. The staff was so courteous and knowledgeable.. breakfast and sweet treats were top notch. Please consider Bits and Bites for your next cafe, you won’t be disappointed!“

“Cute French bakery in East Somerville serving some delicious pastries and bread. About as close to a French bakery as you’ll find in Boston.

Small bakery in East Somerville, not the easiest to get to, but at least that means there won’t be a big queue!

I tried their almond croissant and their baguette. The baguette was superb: crispy, the perfect amount of chewiness, honestly I was transported back to Paris. Extremely authentic.

The almond croissant was very good (and beautiful!) One small criticism which prevents this from reaching 5 stars: I felt like the almond paste could have been more flavourful, and the croissant itself could have been slightly crispier. But still overall solid.“

“5 stars! excellent service by lady working the front and pizza was phenomenal. crispy crust and great sauce!“

“Lots of attention given to drink preparation. Downside is longer what time for service.
Chocolate eclair was ok. Chocolate caramel cake was good without blowing it out of the park.

“Absolutely fantastic, ,super fresh and yummy,“

“My sister-in-law just sent me and my wife a door dash order to cheer us up, with cold brew and two pains au chocolat. I took one bite and… wow. Buttery but light and flaky, cooked just right - understated perfection in a bag! I grew up in France, and this is honestly one of the best French pastries I have had in 28 years living in the US. Even in France it's not every day you find one this good! We’ll be going there for more, can’t wait to try what else they have to offer!“

“I hate how much I love their cannoli. This location takes cards; the North End one does not. They are not cheap, but gosh, they are so good. I always get the chocolate chip one, and it always hits. My wallet doesn't love it, but it is good for the soul. Service is so quick most of the time.“

“Very tasty almond croissant inside the heart of Cambridge. Praline is the perfect place to grab a coffee and a pastry and crank in a couple hours of work.

Praline is a French bakery in Cambridge (I could hear their staff speaking French which is always a good sign!). Their pastries are all beautiful, but as always, I had to try their almond croissant.

The croissant itself was light, moist yet still crispy on the bottom. The almond paste filling was very generous and evenly spread throughout. The paste tasted very natural with a strong nutty flavour.

In my opinion, the almond paste lacked a bit of a “praliné” taste (it’s in their name after all!), and could have benefited from a bit of salt. Still overall a delicious croissant, and I’ll definitely be coming back to try more of their pastries!

p.s: Iced latte was also very nice, perfect combination with the almond croissant!“

“The best place 🥰 Love ❤️ ❤️“

“Paris Baguette is my go-to spot for birthday cakes—they’re always beautifully made, fresh, and absolutely delicious. Whether it’s fruit-topped, chocolate, or cream-filled, every cake I’ve tried has been a hit with friends and family.

The presentation is elegant, and the flavors are light yet satisfying—perfect for any celebration. In my opinion, it’s the best place to buy birthday cakes if you’re looking for quality and taste. Highly recommended! 🎂“
