Really blown away by everything at The Crisp Cannoli. Ahead of my visit, I knew a little bit of their selection but WOW they had so many sweet treats. It was a very busy Saturday so I felt a little rushed with looking but my family and I chose a good variety of things to try. The breakfast sandwiches were also incredible. Fried egg, delicious bacon and huge!! read more

This is a very popular place especially for young families. It has an upbeat, decor, friendly staff. I believe this is my third visit here for breakfast. There's lots of choices on the menu and à la cart opportunities. I like the variety and the fresh hot meals. The tree is a bit small so if you'd like to have the equal distribution, you might ask for two pieces of chorizo so you have enough for each half. I enjoyed the pastrami however I think it was missing a little something maybe either a mayonnaise or mustard on the side silly thing, but there's no salt or pepper to be found. You have to ask for water to be delivered to your table so why not just have a pitcher of ice water for people to help themselves while waiting for their meal? There always seems to be a delay with the coffees so I would suggest getting a second barista. We ordered a very simple half caff large coffee with cream, which came after our sandwiches. If you like cream in your coffee as I do, always ask for extra. The portions are large so if you're inclined either split a meal or ask for half to go home. The pastries and cookies and cakes look amazing although I was never brain enough to indulge. Definitely would recommend and would return in the future. 2 breakfast sandwiches 1 large coffee$$20 read more

We have been on a bit of a Dubai Chocolate kick this summer and a friend recommended that we visit Crisp Cannoli in East Greenbush. It's easy to find, and bigger inside than it appears from the outside. Everything in the display cases look like food art. The service was fast and friendly. The menu looks really good but we were there for one thing, The Dubai Persian which was utterly delicious, a light doughnut with pistachio cream filling and delicious creamy pistachio and crispy shredded kataifi on top. It's a good thing I do not live near this location or I might need an intervention because these are addictive. read more

The food is definitely fresh at the Crisp Cannoli. Love the display counters filled with mouthwatering pastries including cupcakes, turnovers and of course, cannolis. The reason the cannolis stay crisp is that they're filled only after you've ordered them. My husband and I stood on line to place our breakfast order. It moved quickly. Fortunately, the restaurant wasn't overly crowded and both the staff and customers were very nice. The cappuccinos are great and the breakfast sandwiches are delish. I liked the old location, but a few years ago the business relocated to a newer and larger space. It's clean, modern and very inviting. You can't go wrong for breakfast or lunch, which is why the restaurant gets some top honors in the local newspapers readers polls. read more

First time for lunch- excellent service, very efficient- owner stopped by and was so nice. Our Tuna melt & New Yorker both excellent but lobster bisque was cold - no worries I brought it home an once warmed was really tasty. Brought home a few sweets and the usually excellent lobster pastry was raw inside. I have ordered so many times but was so disappointed. Pop tarts are amazing. read more

We came here with my son & his girl, and this was a place they really liked. A couple of us got savory dishes (delicious breakfast sammies) & a couple got sweet stuff. Yummy, great service & clean as a whistle. We also bought some cookies for the road! (Also good coffee! ) Can't wait to come back! read more

A top-notch bakery. Also delivers delicious panini sandwiches, salads, burgers, soups and more, without having to wait forever to order. The orders are taken fairly quickly in a rather unusual format but one that seems to work, so this isn't really a compliant, but rather simply an observation. All told, very pleasant experience. At lunchtime, the place gets pretty busy, but it's worth it. Well worth a repeat visit (or several!) read more

The Crisp Cannoli is such a gem! The baker we met, Jason, and the rest of the staff put so much love into what they do. The coffee beans are freshly roasted and delivered, which makes all the difference. We loved the lunch we had here, and the fresh coffee and tasty desserts that followed! read more

Rugelach taste like the ones I had growing up in NYC. Took home a bag of coffee beans to grind at home. Excellent coffee. So good I drink it black. Brownies are so decadent had to eat it in one sitting. Service is fast and courteous vitually no waiting even though very busy time. Ambiance very nice cozy decor to sit and relax while enjoying various breakfast sandwiches, pastries and coffee. Worth the trip from wherever. read more

Staff was excellent - had a line when we walked in but they took orders very quickly and our food came out in a timely manner. They are all helping each other and keeping the food coming out and keeping the place clean. Food was good and not over priced. We will be back! read more

Drove over from Scotia to give it a try since I heard they offer Beef on a Weck on Thursdays. The sandwich was on point! The bread they use is authentic and the roast beef had excellent flavor. My wife ordered a Cubano panini and she said it was very good as well. It's not a place that is near me but I definitely will go out of my way to patronize them again. If you are looking for cannolis or other types of sweets they offer a very large variety to fill that need as well. read more

Crisp Cannoli - Beef on a Weck - Bakeries Near Me - Greenbush, New York

As a lifelong Philadelphian which has a number of iconic cannoli shops, I'm going to channel my wife here (and I'd agree with her assessment, but she is the true connoisseur of sweets) and say that this is easily the best cannoli we've ever tried. The MAIN difference is the cannoli the day after. Lots of cannolis are as good on day 1. But the differentiator here is that there is some wizardry at play here, because the shells stayed crisp and crunchy after a day in the fridge. I can never order just one, but sometimes get overly ambitious, but to be greeted with that crunch on day two makes this worth the trip. Also. Their jelly donut is no less superb. I won't go into the same depth of detail, but the delicious donut is filled with a solid amount of jelly. Not too little. Not too much. Just right! Service is EXCELLENT. Can't speak to other foods because I can't get myself to try anything new. But I'm sure it's all spectacular. read more

Does every member of the staff have a stake in this business? That's how they act! I went on a Saturday morning for goodies for my fam and it was great! I was helped right away and given recommendations when I asked. The breakfast sandwiches and coffee. Yumm! My kids (wink wink) loved the donuts and pastries. I will definitely go back again soon! read more

It has great pastreis! They give you a whole box of french fries! The food doesnt look like crap! Their drinks are so good!

Best breakfast & lunch spot around! We absolutely love their sandwiches. Cute little coffee bar & great service, friendly staff :)

Crisp Cannoli is one of the best pastry bakeries in the Albany area, full stop. If you're looking for a box of Italian pasties to bring home or to a party, you cannot do better than Crisp Cannoli. Naturally cannolis are stuffed to order, so the shell is always crisp and delicious. But as good as the cannolis are here, the almond horns, sfogliatelle and linzer cookies and fig danishes are every bit as luscious. I'm a frequent customer as I live fairly close by, and I have never had a bad cup of coffee there. If you're in the mood for something savory, The Crisp Cannoli has some of the best breakfast sandwiches in the area. They also have a great selection of panini's, but I confess that I've never been there for lunch, so cannot provide an honest review of the sandwich and panini selection. I don't know the owner, but he or she is clearly doing something right. The help is consistently friendly and courteous, which makes ordering very pleasant. The inside offers ample seating, and in warm weather they have outdoor seating as well. As you might guess, I'm a big fan of this establishment. If you live nearby, you have probably stopped in; but this place is well worth a trip from anywhere in the tri-city area. If you haven't tried it, put it on your list. You won't be disappointed. read more

So I have been going to the Crisp Cannoli since they moved into their new space. I love Jason and his staff and how much they try to benefit the community. I do have to admit that I've had better cannolis but I worked in a restaurant where I got to eat cannolis 5 minutes after the shells came out of the fryer. My husband and daughter love the peanut butter pie and I always get an éclair. All of the meals I've gotten have been great. From breakfast sandwiches to burgers, they've all been awesome. I've never ordered coffee from there but a friend who came from downstate said their coffee was good. read more

I am sorry to say that I can't agree with the 5 star reviews. My daughter took me there for my first time. I ordered two danish to take home. I ate one the day we bought them and the other the next day for breakfast. They were stale. They were so stale that I had to cut off the four sides of the red velvet cake topped with cream cheese icing to cut off the hard sides. The second danish which is sometimes called a lobster tail was even more stale and unedible. read more

Jason- I want to apologize to you! I am truly sorry you took my phone call as a lunch shift was hitting. Honestly I am glad I came to meet you and talk about our disagreement! Lesson learned we all have the capability to dehumanize each other in this WORLD... but it takes amazing souls to talk it through face to face and figure shit out. ‍ ps I fuckin suck at grammar! Glad you understood that was NOT where I was going with my comments #hyjackedchickensalad I order from this place sometimes 1 or 2 times a week! Always raved about it... until today! Last week I ordered a walnut and cranberry salad. In the description it states... "one of our most popular salads-simple Romaine, Cranberry, Walnut & Chicken Salad"...(see picture below). I never got the chicken salad. I never said anything about it thought I made the mistake. Week 2, second time I ordered it same thing happened. So, I called just to confirm Im ordering what I thought I was ordering. 1 first person reread the description to me and explained I need to order chicken salad if I wanted it? I said wait what it says it comes with it, she states no you have to order it, let me get my manager. She gets on says the same thing but this time says I don't know how else to explain this to you. It doesn't come with chicken you have to order it separately. So I say if I order the the cobb salad that doesn't come with chicken either? She gets pissed at me and drop kicks my call to the owner.... Who gets on the phone and right off the bat says look I don't have time for a grammar lesson! What is it you want me to do???? Treat me like a valuable customer..... ****UPDATE AS OF THIS VERY MOMENT SAID OWNER CHANGED THE WORDING #nevergoingback #worstcustomerservice #horribleexperience read more

I really love this place. Decor is awesome. The staff couldn't be friendlier.It is quite noisy but I always order to go. I 'm not a sweets person so I don't go for the sweets. I go for the food which has always been fantastic. Until today. I ordered a BLTini which is a BLT on Panini bread. Also ordered hashbrowns. The bacon on the Panini was almost nonexistent. I could barely taste it. And yet the sandwich was extremely salty. Also, I love onions, but the macaroni salad was loaded with so many onions. It was inedible. All in all a disappointing experience, but I've had many others that were great. So I will definitely be returning. read more

This coffee bar/bakery is top notch! The service was friendly and there was ample seating. It's very busy at lunch time but it runs like a well-oiled machine. It's a large space but with cozy corners. I had the lobster tail pastry with custard inside and it was to die for! Crispy and flaky on the outside and lucious on the inside. The cappuccino was decent. I wanted a tuna sandwich but on a smaller bread which the girl at the counter said she couldn't accommodate because they didn't have that. I ended up buying a scoop of tuna, which was extremely flavorful and not overly-mayonaised. I later saw that the breakfast sandwiches were on smaller bread so I ordered one of those plain hard rolls to go to add my tuna salad to. It took FOREVER to get my bread, which made me late to work so that's why I took a star off, along with not just being accommodated by suggesting that bread from the start when I wanted a smaller sandwich. That being said, it's an amazing place and I'd return if I were a local. read more

Glad to see it back! The place looks great inside. The coffee is awesome and all the desserts are so delicious. Staff is friendly and owner is a great person which makes the experience there even better. Keeping it local, with this wonderful small bakery business. Its so close to home too, oops there goes dieting. Glad for the glazed bacon donuts and being able to have a crodo again in many flavors. My boyfriend really liked the coffee and apple danish as well. We both look forward to enjoying many visits here. Can't wait to order or pick up some holiday treats. Very soon there will be soups, lunch panini's and breakfast sandwiches. Can't wait to give them a try. The only place I know you can get also many different flavored cannoli's which can be plain or chocolate dipped. read more

Linsder torte and Sfogliatelle are fantastic! Great service with an authentic ambiance. Will be returning.

Service is great. restaurant has lots of seating and a nice ambiance. I got a ham egg and cheese sandwich which I didn't love but I won't hold against them since they are known for their pastries. On a side note I did get an apple cinnamon danish and a cro-dough which were both amazing. I will be going back for more sweets. read more

We only stayed nearby overnight and stopped for breakfast take-out on our way out of town. Not only was the interior delightfully decorated, but the cases of baked goods were beautifully displayed and looked absolutely delicious! We had fantastic breakfast sandwiches and our coffee was the best! So happy that we stopped here. If we had ordered one of everything we would have been gorging happily for weeks! An absolutely wonderful place staffed by helpful, polite employees. read more

Doesn't get much better than this place! Food is amazing, service is great and the vibe is perfect.

Disappointing experience. We came for a trial on the recommendation of a friend. I've gotten into the Cannoli chips and cream and bought one while waiting for our breakfast order to arrive. The salad dressing to-go container they use to put the cannoli cream inside the containers is no where near large enough to enjoy some cream with all the chips. I went back to the counter after to buy another container of chips and cream (the chips were good) and buy an extra small container for the chips as well as a second one for the new batch I planned on buying The lady said they wouldn't sell me another container. I could only buy the cream in 1 pound increments. I wouldn't need to buy any cream if they gave enough cream with their product to begin with. To force someone to buy an entire pound of cream is absurd. Charge $.50 or 0.99 for an extra one but make it an option just like pizza places sell extra blue cheese or wing sauce. But at least they give something reasonable with your order. It was annoying. I put the new chip container back and walked out bowing not to return for awhile Artuso's frozen pastries from the Bronx that can be bought in price chopper are delicious and I don't get any irritation buying their products. They are better from the store in Little Italy in the The Bronx but it's not convenient going there all the time. read more

Clean, ample parking, and cases and cases of pastries. I could not choose which pastry to pick. I got a black and white cookie and chocolate chip cookie. My husband agreed the chocolate chip cookie was the better option. The cappuccino was delicious and I ordered the vegan wings which were breaded but lots of them and the sauce was delicious. I was excited to finally be able to go here after all the photos they post on Facebook. Someday the NEBA. read more

Great little cafe. They offer standard lunch fare like sandwiches, wraps, and burgers, but that's not all. Their selection of baked goods and chocolates are the best in town. Service is always quick, and the staff aim to please. The interior is a bit basic, but based on how busy they get, this is probably intentional, to aid in cleanup. They do offer indoor and outdoor seating, but frequently this isn't enough. During the lunch rush, it's common for seating to be at capacity. This hasn't deterred us yet, seats change hands frequently, and we don't mind eating in the car either. Regardless, it's definitely worth the trouble/trip! read more

Very good and fresh had cubano panini And turkey one Excellent service as well Would recommend this place to my family and friends read more

Cannolis to die for, so I expect the rest of the sweets to be great. Sandwiches not so much. Bread is good, which is hard to find outside of nyc. At least some of the rolls are from Prinzo's so of course. Plus they sell them in a package, a nice perk. But ordered a roast beef on ciabatta to go. Thrown together, falling apart when opened, not cut ( was very big) and mayo on the outside of the sandwich. Difficult to eat. Had eaten sandwiches there before, which were better, but still heavy on the bread light on the filling. Asked for tap water, came in tiny glass to accompany a pastrami with horseradish! Staff super nice, sandies can be customized which is also nice. But bottom line, stick with the pastries and cookies! read more

Let me be honest; most people love a cannoli, I don't. But, there is always something else, right? We went there twice. The place is horrible for ambience--it has none. It's 110 percent industrial which means it's not comfortable, it's not relaxing, it's just a food mill and a warm drink mill. Then, enjoy the cement floors and walls, and hearing what everyone else is saying. The staff is mediocrely cheerful but under-schooled in the food offerings. The prices are high for what you get. So, that's the truth. The flavors were so-so. read more
