I absolutely love Mike's Pastry. Long lines everytime I go. I'm glad they opened a small location at North Station.

Medford ma has a good bakeries too A lot of people that own the bakeries in the north end live in Medford families

Maria's is the best, it's such a shame she retired and closed back in 2019. We visit Boston from the UK and she her, she's a lovely lady and her Mum is great. We're going to visit Boston this July and we will miss her.

Hey, man. Just moved to Boston in August. Loved your video and are going on to check out your others! Keep it up. You do great, and they're fun and informative!

Years ago, there use to be a bakery in South Station. Rosie's I believe was the name. Delicious cakes and pastries.

you need more videos! these are so well made.

These paesans are taking notes for our Brewers-Red Sox trip someday. Subbed you!

Maria's definitely my favorite!

My dad is from Margaret Street. We were Bova’s for bread (Scali(a), Spuckies and thumb knot rolls and Modern for treats. They have the best Florentine cookies I’ve ever had and their Ricotta pie is the standard to which all others are measured.

this is helpful jack

Fyi to anyone that has not tried pastery in the north end. No preservitives in the pastery. Get there early. If you show up later in the day eat it. Places like parziales have been there since 1907.

Been to Mike's, all the way from AZ. Best Cannoli I have had to date! 11/10. Thanks for the video.

I Miss Maria’s :(

shame that Maria's has closed down our favourite

Bova’s cannoli’s absolutely

Well that brought back some great memories of Boston for me. Cannolis, yum. Mike’s,Modern, Maria’s - it’s the holy trinity of deliciousness. Thanks!

A couple of months later Maria announces that she's closing her shop permanently to retire. I'm new to Boston and was so looking forward to going to her shop then I find out that its no longer opened. I believe she closed her shop in September 2019 (4 months after you uploaded this video). I guess I'm stuck with the tourist pastry shops. Shame. If possible, please remake the video and update.

Modern the BEST by far

Wait! Why didn’t you go into Bova’s?! It’s right there!

Maria's closed! :(

I wonder why his Boston accent isn't very strong? You must have been away from there for quite a while

Here's a genuine ranking and guide for Italian Americans: Best Cannoli: Bova's Bakery Best Bread: Bricco (Panetteria) Best Pastries: Modern (my favorite is the sfogliatelle) Best Coffee/Espresso Martini: Cafe Vittoria Best Pizza: Galleria Umberto Runner-Up Pizza: Parziale's Maria's Pastry has closed... she had good stuff, but there are still so many good bakeries. Mike's Pastry is not one of them.

Mike’s??!! They freeze their cannoli filling!!! One big tourist trap and absolutely not worth the long lines! People, go to either Bova or Modern for your cannoli!! Mike’s is generally avoided by the locals, not because of their long lines, it’s because of the (low) quality of their cannoli.

You can’t find a better cannoli in the U.S. than Mike’s. I’ve tried.

A NON-ITALIAN........trying to evaluate ....a southern italian pastry and bakery?????..........NO........

those cakes look vile sugary, corn syrupy mess, commercial, mass produced and disgusting, with the exception of maria's, plus do not talk whilst eating...bad manners
