19 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 were visiting Boston for a few days and were staying close to Michette. We would go there every morning for breakfast and it was such a beautiful discovery. The vegan guava roll and focaccia… so so delicious! The vegan pastries made by Michette were the best ones I had so far. Thank you to the friendly and welcoming staff!“

“The quality of these sandwiches has been praised by many, so let me praise the gluten free bread used for the GF versions! Absolutely delicious, flavorful, moist.... So incredible, I had to double-check with the staff it was actually gluten free, I couldn't believe it!“

“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!“

“Fig is the best! Their takeout window basically got me through the pandemic, and I feel very lucky that this is my local. As a certified scone-hater, their blueberry scone is the best I've ever had. I recommend their lattes, smoothies, breakfast sandwiches (the cheddar cheese is SHARP), and chia pudding. Their lunch sandwiches are also great. 10/10 for staff, vibes, food, and coffee.“

“I normally dont dont this but Komugi Bakery is absolutely a 5/5! You can really tell how much attention they put into every detail, especially when it comes to texture and flavor. Everything feels carefully made, with the perfect balance of softness, richness, and sweetness without being overwhelming.

The French toast was definitely a standout. The texture was incredible, soft and fluffy on the inside with just the right finish on the outside. Every bite had so much flavor, and you could really taste the quality and thought that went into it.

What impressed me most about Komugi is how intentional everything feels. The flavors, textures, presentation, and small details all come together perfectly. Definitely a bakery worth visiting, and I’ll absolutely be coming back!“

“Grilled cheeses!! So good!“

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

“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!“

“Cute traditional bakery with great selection and service! High quality food and the authenticity speaks for itself. Unpopular opinion, but I think the cash only makes the experience feel even more traditional and old school in the best way. Will definitely be back again!“

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

“Came here with a friend and we sat at the bar for espresso martinis, and they were probably the best espresso martinis we’ve had. The bartender was so sweet and charming, and she even put on women’s baseball for us! Such a fun experience, we’ll definitely be back for $1 oysters“

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

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

“Great vibe - I read about the bank part but was really impressed by the patio that wasn’t just chairs and tables pushed to the curb. I don’t recommend the strawberry vanilla latte at all, it was bitter and not terribly reminiscent of either flavor, but I trust that their more classic beverages are serviceable.“

“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!“

“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!“

“Tate’s has become one of my favorite places to stop whenever I’m in the area. The food is always fresh, delicious, and consistently good. Their hot chocolate is absolutely amazing—it’s one of the best I’ve ever had and something I look forward to every time I visit.

The service is another reason I keep coming back. The staff is friendly, efficient, and very organized. Even when it’s busy, the service is fast and straightforward without sacrificing quality.

The atmosphere is welcoming and comfortable, making it a great place to relax with family or friends. I’ve been here several times, and every visit has been a great experience. I highly recommend Tate’s to anyone looking for great food, excellent service, and an amazing hot chocolate. I’ll definitely be back again and again!“
