It was okay. Personally, I thought the macaron wafers were too dense and the cream was too rich. I'm sure this is good for some people, it's just not what I'm looking for in a macaron. Also kinda of expensive for the quality

Best Macarons ever. Perfectly sweet without being overly sugary. The flavors are spot on and remind me of my favorite Chinatown bakeries made into a cute little macaron.

Dietary restrictions: Most are gluten free.

Bought a six pack but was surprised by a limited deal that gave me two extra macarons! Got chocolate, matcha, earl gray, and ube. My friend got chocolate, strawberry, lemon, and raspberry. It was a very nice afternoon treat, the filling was scrumptious. My mom— who’s picky with desserts— loved the matcha flavor. The guy working there was patient and helpful.

Best Macarons I’ve ever had ! However, I took a trip there today from Rhode Island to find out they were closed ! Google and website said they were open 12-5 . Please update your hours when you’re not there . Very disappointed ☹️

Drove to Whaltham for the day to have lunch on Moody Street. I moved here from California where Macarons are very popular, and I haven't found any delicious ones since moving here. Walked into a very beautifully decorated bakery and tried 6 different macarons that were all fresh and very delicious! The salted caramel and coconut were our favorites! Highly recommend.

Easily the best and most consistent bakery in the area. Love making the trips to this shop. Specialty cookies like the cookie filled croissants are always great.

15/10.Not only was their packaging super cute and on point. It makes a great gift to give to anyone - or yourself. Lol. If you want a classic macaron, GO HERE!!!!The tops are that perfect soft crunch - Where it melts into that soft chewiness from shell to shell when you go to bite in. dI will definitely be coming here again. . .PS - Try the Mac Cookie!

This adorable little shop is run by such incredible, down-to-earth folks. They got the lease right before the 2020 pandemic shut down, and I'm so glad they survived through! The macarons are DIVINE. Having tried macarons all over the world at some of the most famous bakeries known for their macarons, I guarantee you that we have one such gem right here in Waltham. My favorite is the ube, and my wife's favorite is the biscoff smore cookie. The texture is PERFECT for both the cookies and maracon, crispy on the outside, but with so much body and chewiness on the inside. The treats here are delectable. I also encourage you to talk to the shop owner, who runs the store, and get to know their story. They are generous, kind, and hard working folk who give to those in need. All in all, this shop is truly one built and run with heart and passion, backed by sheer incredible culinary skill.

Parking: Parking lots very close by, and free street parking right out front on both sides of the street.

Wheelchair accessibility: Very wide open store, plenty of maneuvering space, door is at sidewalk level

Such a great experience! I went there for the first time today and the gentleman that helped us was extremely friendly and even gave use some awesome recommendations for his favorite flavors. Besides the amazing service, the macarons were AMAZING. I will definitely be going more often now! Also, it is such a cute shop and has a wonderful atmosphere. You could definitely take some great pictures with your macarons before you leave! :)

Best macarons in the Boston area. Worth the Waltham traffic. My personal favorite is the peach passion fruit but honestly it’s so hard to decide!

This quaint shop offers freshly made macarons in an array of delightful flavors, accompanied by a selection of other sweet treats, cakes, and refreshing drinks. The service is impeccable; the staff member I met was incredibly warm and friendly. Additionally, the shop was adorned with festive Halloween decorations, providing a perfect backdrop for photos. A truly charming spot for dessert enthusiasts!

We came in from out of town to visit some family, and this was definitely one of our favorite stops we made. I love me a good macaroon so when I saw the name we had to stop by. Little did I know how great the service was going to be. Chris was super nice and made our experience wonderful! But, let me tell the best macaroons I’ve have in a long time. Such creative flavors, lots of options. Highly recommend trying it out, and we will be back anytime we’re in Waltham again!
