    came here today specifically for the St. Joseph pastries, something I have not found since leaving NY in 2018. I Have not been here since they expanded and opened a Cafe next door. I loved when I walk in everything now is so much more open and bright with plenty of seating room. The St.Joseph's pastries were right there , front and center in display offering both custard and Cannoli filled. Looked to good I had a piece right there in the Cafe, what a nice St Joseph pastry. Fresh as can be with a crisp and airy texture , not over filled with cream. Brought me back to growing up in Bensonhurst Brooklyn and waiting in line at Alba's or West End Bakery for our pastry. Thank you Holy Cannoli for brining a little piece of Brooklyn to our small Waxhaw town

    Last night we stopped by for cannoli & tiramisu. They were both excellent!! Best cannoli we've had in the Charlotte area. Took home the tiramisu since it was frozen left it in the fridge overnight and it was delicious and perfectly balanced in sweetness. We'll definitely be back.

    New little Italian coffee shop in downtown Waxhaw that opened last week. Rhey have espresso drinks and some gorgeous looking Italian desserts ( cannolis, tiramisus,etc). The owner of Flav's ( Indian trail) is one of the owners, so you know that everything will be amazing. Small storefront with no seating, so you grab your order to go or walk around downtown enjoying your coffee. Either way, definitely go check it out.

    The people here a super nice and everything is made in house. Large assortment of homemade sweets. Cookies, tiramisu, and cannolis. Saw some seasonal flavors too.

    Another great Holy Cannoli dessert tray custom made for our Thanksgiving Day dinner. The assortment was presented and prepared with precision and care. Each dessert selection was freshly prepared and absolutely delicious! So delighted to have this bakery and coffee shop in the area. Congrats to the owner and staff for making this our "go-to" dessert shop for great desserts, coffee choices and helpful service staff. If you haven't been there yet, don't miss out on many great treats!

    Cannoli time!

    Best Cannoli I've had. I've had the plain and chocolate. The chocolate chip and Rochero Ferrer cookies are soft and delicious.

    Great little place! Pignoli nut (almond) cookies were delicious!! Cannoli were good, though I prefer the ends be sprinkled with pistachios.

    I think this is one of the best bakeries you will find in NC. It is very unassuming and tucked away…read morebut they are making some of the best baked goods I have ever had. It is not a question. We got a few things: bagel bomb, cinnamon roll, brown sugar cookie, and donut. My only regret was not getting more things, like the amazing looking croissants. Bagel bomb was actually unreal. An everything bagel stuffed with an incredible shallot cream cheese. It was one of the best bfast items I have ever had. The cinnamon roll was insanely good. So soft, so moist, so delicious. The cookie was perfect. Texture was perfect, flavor was delicious. And the donut(how they did this I don't know) was also incredible. Better donut than most donut shops I've been to. One of the fluffiest, most perfectly textured donuts I've had. This place, simply put, is one of the best bakeries I've been to. The people were also incredibly nice. Please run.. don't walk.. to try this place! You will not be disappointed. Thanks!

    Finally got a chance to stop by here and I regret not visiting sooner…read more Pros: - charming and cozy space with seating both indoors and outdoors - nice assortment of baked goods and it sounds like they switch up their offerings regularly. The cruffin was delicious and well worth the calories - local family-owned business Cons: - it would be helpful to have signs and prices for the items. I imagine it would speed things up if the staff didn't have to answer those sorts of questions repeatedly. - the staff were helpful but not very warm. - the matcha latte was the worst I've had in recent memory. Watered down and bitter. Not sure if the person making it messed it up or their matcha quality is poor, but it was a waste of $6. Overall, I feel lucky we live close by and look forward to visiting again.

    Saturday afternoon south of everywhere and I can get a regular drip coffee? came across an outburst…read moreof modern life as I was running out of coffee and figured I should while I could so I did and got a cannoli along with... really would have been satisfied with open and today's coffee so even in the middle of pre-closing side work this was way way better. coffee was recent and good but needed a little reheat which meant blasting my traveler with the frother-steamy thing from the cappuccino-ator... and that was the absolute crazy thing for the month. SO. COOL!!! ...other than that it's a nice enough spot for a cup of goodness and a bite in what will soon be a sea of humanity but for now is still a stone's throw off :-) pleasant, helpful help, comfortable surroundings, and open on Saturday afternoon.

I've been visiting for the last 2 years, and recently, there seems to have been an ownership change. I assure you, they still serve up the same delicious high-qaulity baked goods. It's always an amazing customer experience and we end up picking up way too many pastries! The spinach pastry, as well as the strawberry and cheese are highly recommended. Flaky, crusty, perfection. If you appreciate baked goods made on site, throughout the day, definitely check out Java. I think going fresh makes all the difference and keeps me coming back for more.
