Amazzzzzinggggggg...donuts tasted unbelievable fresh. Service was excellent. Ambiance is just

This was my first time here. As soon as I walked in, I could smell the aroma of fresh baked goods. I went straight to the donuts and got a half dozen. They were delicious. I also got a monkey bar, a hard roll and a cheese danish. They were all so fresh and so delicious. The staff is very helpful as people flowed in and out. The cupcakes look delicious too!!

Custard

Harvest Bakery is a beloved Bristol Donut shop that also sells rolls, breads, desserts, etc. My friend and co-worker Amy first introduced me to the famous Harvest "Custard" donuts, that are similar to Boston creams, when she generously brought a box to work two years ago. The icing is thicker and more milk chocolaty than the standard Boston cream icing. The custard is thicker and more substantial than most standard Boston creams. The dough is always fresh. This morning, we got some of these delicious custards, a glazed cruller and an apple cider cinnamon to share. The elongated glazed cruller has great texture and flavor. Quality-wise, it was pretty close to my favorite similar donut in CT. The apple cider was good, but not quite as soft and light tasting as similar donuts I've loved in CT. 4.5 Stars for Harvest, with a round up to 5 Stars

Rye Bread closeup. High quality!

Stopped at Harvest Bakery on the way to my daughter's dance competition. We were running late but when I got inside I was struck by an intense case of paradox of choice. Case after case of magnificent carbs. I stood indecisively until a line formed. Thankfully I grabbed a number and was waited on pretty quickly. The gentleman was nice and I selected a mini rye bread ($1.95 for a nice amount), raspberry filled donut (it had a cooler ethnic name that I can't exactly recall), a custard donut, and a shamrock shaped cookie for my daughter. The rye bread made for a delicious breakfast as is, no butter or anything. The custard donut really took breakfast to new heights. Perfectly fresh donut just oozing with real quality custard and topped with chocolate frosting, one of the top donuts I've had. I practiced patience and reserved the raspberry filled donut for the ride home. It ended up being another one of the best donuts I've ever had. Sweet raspberry filling in a glazed donut. Absolutely outstanding! Just wrapped up the day's eating by trying the shamrock cookie and it's also delicious. Perfect sugar cookie. Harvest Bakery is outstanding, I can see why it's been there for over 80 years!

Harvest Bakery is amazing! Highly recommend this place! They have a private parking lot. Service was really good! So welcoming and friendly! I think the young person said it was their last day there because they were moving. Their prices are so low for the high quality. Make a trip here even if it's out of the way.

Harvest Bakery dough

I generally like Harvest Bakery but be careful buying dough. You need to check carefully because our 5 doughs we bought today have chunks of what I can't describe. Best to just include pictures to tell my story

"My grandma and your grandma Were sittin' by the fire…read moreMy grandma told your grandma "I'm gonna set your flag on fire" (Dr. John) Abuela, Bubbe, Grand-mère, Oma, Avó, Obā-chan, Nǎi Nai, or Ammamma are terms of endearment to say "Grandma" around the globe. In Italy, the word is "Nonnie" which just happens to be the name of an amazing Italian bakery we visited today. To be honest, calling Nonni's a "bakery" really shortchanges Grandma, because it is SO much more than that. Yes, of course they sell an incredible variety of beautifully crafted cakes, cupcakes, cookies, and cannolis, but you can also buy breakfast sandwiches, pizza, stromboli, arancino, stuffed breads, grinders, chicken cutlets and more. Their store is awesome, and you'll find yourself staring at their showcases and refrigerated cases. Service is top notch, with plenty of helpful and smiling folks helping you. We picked up an eclectic group of odds and ends - croissants, donuts, danishes, and a big arancini stuffed with meat and vegetables. We attacked that first as an appetizer with dinner, and it was terrific. I can't wait to sample the rest of their wares. PRO TIP Their Italian cookies look amazing, and we will definitely be back to supply our Thanksgiving dessert table with their Rainbow and Birthday Cake cookie cubes.

I used to frequent the original location and Franklin Ave back when I was going out in Hartford…read more Back then, it was very busy, you had to wait and depending on who you got, language was Italian with enough English to get by.. Not a bad thing, just how it was. Stopped into the Plainville location yesterday because I was there and it was there. Have not been a big fan of expansion as in the New Haven pizza world, quality and consistency has suffered. That was my fear with Mozzicatto. However, as they are one of the few who make a ricotta pasticiotti, so I go. I bought 3 of the ricotta and a ricotta square (noticing a pattern here?) which were delicious and were as good as they were 25 years ago. They were fresh, form and the filling was delicately sweet. While I can't speak for all the desserts, they still seem to know what they are doing. It's not easy maintaining this type of specialty business as the market of patrons and tastes is a bit different. IMO, they remain a gem and I am thankful the kids have endeavored to stay true to what brought them success. It is pricy compared to the crap you can buy at the supermarket/Costco? Yes. Is it worth it? Yes. I will not pass Mozzicato's without stopping. You shouldn't either. Salute!

Mozzicato Bakery was so sweet and helpful when we placed a last-minute cake order, totally saved…read morethe day! The cake looked great, though it did seem a bit stale, but of course it's always fun to see what's on display in the cases (those Easter lambs are adorable ). Definitely a cute spot to stop by and check out their treats!

The lavender macaron is a must try, along with the lavender lemon cupcake. (Huge lavender fan) The cakes/cupcakes are always perfectly moist, each having great flavor, and a crumb never gets left behind.

Cupcakes, macarons, cookies, Tiramisu, cannolis, cheesecake, scones, key lime pie, brownies, macarons...an endless variety of delicious treats, perfect for birthdays, weddings, backyard bbq, graduation parties or just because you want a sweet for yourself. Highly recommended especially for a girls date and Mothers Day! The owner is so pleasant and truly takes pride in her business and is so friendly & warm.

We had our friend order for us as our "secret keeper" and told her all the details (size and flavors we wanted) but she was informed that the cake needed to be vanilla only for "food coloring purposes". Fast forward to the reveal, the cake wasn't even colored. They added small about of colored buttercream which absolutely could have been the flavor we wanted. In addition, the price on their website for the cake was one thing and then they charged us DOUBLE because it was "custom". Called to explain our frustration and upset and they said there was nothing they could do. Very disappointed and will not be ordering anything from here again.
