20 Best Bakeries in Somerville

“The most delicious pastries ever. If you love pistachio the way I do you will have trouble choosing and it is ALL great. But I particularly love the savories. The Palestinian bread and the flatbread with the green topping (forget what it's called) is a family favorite. We adore these; the flatbreads are a great quick lunch. But so so delicious, fresh, we are so fortunate to have you here!“

“We went here because is was apparently ranked one of the top 20 bakeries in the US. It is on par with other local bakeries and I'm not sure why this one ranked any higher since we got at least 5 pasties to sample plus the baguette and everything was fine but not out of this world. I actually prefer the pasties at Salt. It's also incredibly cramped inside so just be prepared to grab and go.“

“THANK YOU for offering vegetarian sandwich options that are unique and tasty! The coronation chickpea sandwich is one of the best sandwiches I’ve had in my LIFE. Also pictured: “all gussied up” sando, rhubarb soda, and malt vanilla frappe. All wonderful.

I’ll definitely be back!“

“An absolute gem and best bakery I've been to in Cambridge/Boston serving fresh baked Japanese style breads! Everything is freshly made and baked in-house and the quality speaks for itself: incredible Japanese wheat and flavor. Their salt bread was so soft, flavorful, and buttery. Their curry pan, which was fresh out of the oven was warm, perfectly savory. The French toast was simply heavenly, with a custardy pillowy sweetness. Their coffee was also incredible. You can tell the staff care so much. We'll be back regularly.“

“I was just in the mood for some Brazilian type pastries for lunch, and looked it up on Yelp! My daughter and I drove from Woburn to Somerville and ordered an assortment of goods... You know when you experience something that takes you back to your childhood?? This was it for me...the ambience, the friendliness, and the flavors. Me, my daughter and my inner child drove home with smiles on our faces with food for my wife and my mother to enjoy!!! Amazing! We’ll be back soon!“

“Grilled cheeses!! So good!“

“Picked up some excellent (very reasonably priced) Portuguese bread loaf earlier today.

Will drop by for some additional breads to take away tomorrow too.

Good service!

Curiously, was told not to take pictures inside the store, even when I mentioned that I will pit up a Google review - of their excellent breads. My son in law, who had accompanied me shared a couple he had taken inside the establishment

Obrigada!! For the excellent breads.“

“Stopped by for brunch last weekend, the Croque Monsieur was amazing! The handsome young man Alex helping us was an absolute sweetheart and very attentive. The girls ordered mimosas, and I had a Bee’s Knees, which I’d never heard of, suggested by the sweet young woman at the bar, Karina I believe, and it was delish, truly. It was pretty busy, so I’d recommend making a reservation if you’re coming on a weekend. Service was quick and great overall! Looking forward to experiencing dinner here!“

“Petsi Pies in Somerville is a gem loved by people all over Boston. Their pecan pie is simply the best—perfectly sweet, with a great crust. If you’re looking for a classic pie done right, this is the place to go. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to add a little extra to their Thanksgiving table or for birthday pie lovers!“

“Thank you so much for delivering produce during the pandemic! You guys rock.“

“One of the few favorites left that has been around my whole life. And it’s still the same. ♥️“

“Our favorite local coffee shop. They constantly pull delicious espresso, have a great selection of roasts, and the food always satisfies. The chocolate zucchini loaf cannot be missed! I also really appreciate that there’s no WiFi. It makes it easy to consistently find a place to sit because people aren’t camping out all day.“

“Fantastic atmosphere, amazing food and superb service. Highly recommend!“

“smooth latte, nice to have a decaffeinated lattee.“

“The sandwiches here are MASSIVE and loaded up. Get the sourdough!! Easily the softest, most moist sourdough I’ve ever had.

The pastries are also good. They are known for the maple scone, which was good but I found it a little dry/chalky. The banana chocolate chunk muffin was great.“

“A cozy neighborhood café with quick service and genuinely friendly staff. I have had their breakfast sandwiches and chicken salad sandwiches multiple times, Ofcourse coffee and they’re consistently good. Easy place to keep coming back to.“

“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!“

“I don't know if he was the owner or just one of the employees there, but the gentleman name Assiss was super awesome! My friend and I were a bit famished, but didn't want to buy food just yet. We both had something small in mind to hold us over. Muffins popped into my mind. We saw and drove by Mass Hole Donuts and thought of trying is, but didn't quite want sugar. We kept driving down the street when we saw Magnificent Muffin. We slightly passed it and immediately placed the vehicle in reverse and parked right out front. We got out only to find out they had just closed. The guy was behind the counter and I was pleading with him to open the door and he did. He told us he was out of muffins as they go fast. We were bummed. When he saw our reaction he offered to make us something else. We both ordered jalapeno bagels with cream cheese. He ended i'm finding a few tiny muffins left and gave it to us. The whole experience, the food everything was spectacular.Thank you, sir. We appreciate you!“

“The North End location is nice and all but, THIS location is the only one I'll go to from now on. A FAR shorter line, zero drama and a relaxed, stress-free atmosphere. I can get my cannoli and pastries and be on the road in less than 15 minutes! (Once I'm able to choose what to order. lol)“

“I would like to give a shout out to Erica who was the hostess in this location today. Erica came up to the table and mentioned about the marination procedure of chicken to make sure there is no food allergy problems with the customers (us). I have never had this experience where the hostess paying special attention to each one of the customers especially on a busy Friday evening. Tatte is lucky to have employees like Erica who go extra mile that will only help build the brand further!“
